THE LIVE STOGK EXHIBIT.
NOTABLE DISPLAY OF H0ESE3
AND CATTLE AT THE PAIB.
The Most Important Exhibition of
IU Klo.l Kver Held n Thla
Country-Fact of Interest About
. American and Foreign Ilreeda of
f llortct.
The exhibition of live rtoek at the WorM'a
Fair Is notable In many partloulon and must
j be acknowledged to bo, taken all la all, the
mot Important one ever held In this country,
j It embraces, bealdo honoa and eittlo, ahoop
j and Lok, lire stock appliances, Incubators
and other of the hli)-olaM accesaories of
model Inrms. To beRln with the horaos,
ys the Washington Htsr correspondent,
there Is not a slnglo breed of Iraportnnco
that lies not some fine speclmeu. They
rnnire from the heavinat shire, weighing Tery
nearly 2500 pounds, to the moit dimlimtlve
Bhetlnnd pony, which a strong mnn could
; pick up and carry on his back it lt would
; permit him to do so.
i The Judging opened with a hunch of Ruf
' folk punch horses, a breed hitherto almost
unknown In this country, although It is one
'of the oldest and best known of English
henry-weight horses. The exhibit was not
i extensive, embracing but four stallions over
five yenrs old, and four mares of the Mini)
i ago. beside several yearlings and colts. One
horse came from Thorndale, Ontario, and all
, the rest aro owned III this country. Thotypl-
cal HulTolk punch is a large, heavily built
horse, very compact, with short neck and
; bva. The color is chestnut, and white lot
' and a "bla face" are common. Thev are
especially adapted for medium draft pur
I poses. The two best of the stallions were
BKong the finest looking ot till tlio horses lud
i Into the ring.
I Following the Suffolk punches came the
' Judging of the IVrolierons, which oocuplnd
; several days. There are sixteen of them
I horses, covering stallions over live yenrs old.
netween lour nun live, under three, under
two and yearllnirs. and marea of the same
j age, besides sickling rolls. A good many of
tne I'ercDerons comn rmm ( aunda, Mit the
majority are owned In Illinois, Iowa, Michi
gan, Wisconsin and New York. In the
awarding of the prizes one farm secured
every (lrst premium except In one section.
The whole display is quite remarkable, mid
spenka highly for Amerlean Importers and
breeders. It is hardly an exnggcratlou to
say that not even In Franco Itselt ann one see
fluer specimens of these prlns of draft
horses than aru now shown at the Worlds
l'nlr.
After the Terclicrons eimo the judging of
the Clydesdale and Shires, and among the
latter is tho largest horse In tho Fair, he of
2.r00 pounds. For the benetlt ot the unini
tiated it may bo stilted that the largest horses
are usually round among tho Milres, the
Clydeslalc pressing tliem closely, with tlio
I'uri.'herons I lie liglitest of thu throe. Tim
lufct-uumod, too, luck tho heavy fetlocks that
uro a ili:-ti!iKrulMhliiy fuaturo ot thu other
heavy draft breods.
A strauga brood followed tlio draft horses
Into the btoek pavilion in thu America-Arab,
which Is nothing more nor less than the pure
strain Arabian horso crossed with thu Ameri
can breed. As every horseman knows, back
of almost over)- bi'li-brcd horso lu existence
Is a foundation of tho tdoo I of the Arabian
horso. The l'erehcrons with Mint -claws pedi
grees ull go back to lt. sj doi-H tho running
stock, so does tho trotting, and it is a 1-orist
ttlut the Knglmli Hackney, now ouu of the
most popular of all borxes, Is but an evolu
tion from Arabian blood. Further than this,
it is claimed with reason that Anierleau horses
tnat uro not brud ut all, but have run w.l I
for gcii'iralioua, the tough lironeocs that so
often show great qualltiesof courage and en
durance, uro the olTxpriug of the Arabian
hones that Cortex brought with lilm fpeu
Kpain and let loose on thu American conti
nent centuries ago. To-day tlio Amerieo
Arub is a sinall-limbod dellcatoly-forineil
horse, of wonderiully beautiful proportlinn,
mid with tlio keen. Intelligent cyu ot u human
being, duly four btalllons over four years
old arc shown, t tvo coming from Long Mnud
ii nd two from different stock larms in Wis
consin. There aro half a dozen mares and
snveral colts. Altogether, tlio display it
rutin r uii evidence of what can be done than
of what has been done. Of thoroughbred
Arabs themselves there Is aluo n moHt inter
esting bun-h. and nmongtlio ltuisinu hones
arc several I'.ussin-Arabs that nro in u gen
eral way, similar to the Amerieo-Arali.
Tho i.lilblt of the ltusslau horses Is itself
one of the most luternliugof ull. Washing
tonlnus, roiiuirLs tho hlur corrcapoinlent,
will remember tliut tho Seerotary oi ttio Hus
sian IiCgutioii several years ago appeared
with u JIu-hIiiu drosky and two liussiuu trot
ting sta'lloiiH, which ho drove on alternate
days. These were tho Hint ones over seen lu
the neighborhood of Washington, They were
lurge-bonud, stoutly built, nbout sixteen
hands high and very fast trotters for a long
distuucu. There uro uow shown at tho Fair
n complete lino of tlieso Kussian horses. most
ot them tieing thu property of theUrnud
I)uke Lilmltry and tho ItusHlaiistateadminiH
tratiou of studs. Hovural havu been ex
chauged with Senator Stanford's Palo Alto
farm for American horses, so that tho strain
will bavu tlm buu'ifit of a trial in thia coun
try. Thu chief ones shown nr the OrluiT
trotters, which are a slrulu bred by Count
OrlofT, of llusslo. They urn not, of courso,
as fust as the American, horses none ure.for
that mutter but they arj hardy, nud can
keep up a rapid gult for a long tlmo. The
two types nro the light horses nud thu heavy
ones, tho former rosombllug somewhat our
own trotters. There is an exhibition lilso of
ltussiun sAddlo torsi's, duslcuud as weiyUt
carriers.
Of American saddle horses there fsaflue
display, oud It is hardly necessary tosuy that
mot of tlicm tro bred in Kentucky, ult hough
Missouri appear second with a good show
ing. There are none from other States, and
Virginia and Murylund, so lunious for their
saddle horses, have sunt uo spuclineus at ull.
Of other purely Ameiican breeds perhaps
the most lutere.ling is tho strong exhibit
made of Vurmont Morgans. Bo much have
people been bent upou obtaining EnKllnh and
French horses of lute years that many of
them seem to have forgotten that English
men tbemsolveo have been compelled to ad
mit that lor general "urpojus the Morgan
horse Is a match even for their famous Hack
neys. It is aatlsfaetorr. therefore, to sea
that there are breeders who still cultivate
them, for their worth continues to obtain m
general recognition. The stallions exhibited
number In all thirty-eight and eome from
farms In Illinois. Missouri. Kentnnky, Ver
mont. Virginia, Wait Virginia and Indiana.
There Is also a fine showing ot mares and
colts. .
The Morgnn and tho Tngllsh Hackney are)
apt to be competitors. Of the latter there la
not as full a display as of the former, but
several Canadian forms, as well as Ameri
can, show some fine apeelmena.
wnen we asa to see the large eoacn none
we neoesenrlly leave American breeds be
hind, for the coach horse has been brought
to a state of perfection In Europe far sur
passing anything to be found in tnis coun
try. In point of fact, American horses em-
brace saddle horans, road liorsna, trotters
and runners, but of draught horses and conch
horses all the breeds are European. Among
the coach horses the breeds now most culti
vated are fie French coach horse and tba
Cleveland bay. Both have strong represen
tation at the Fair. Among the former are
fourteen stallions over live years old, four
between fonr and five, and ten nndr three.
Rnveral stallions are shown with three of
their colts, nnd the showing of mores Is ex
tensive. The Cleveland bnvs are not so nu
merous, but among the stallions there are a
number of the beet specimens, as well as
among the mares. A third broed of coach
lioraes is shown In the Ocrman "coachcr,"
which contains a numerous bunch.
There Is no barn ot horans that Is more
eontsntly crowded than the one whero the
Shetland ponies may be found. The breed
ing of the faaclnatlng little fellows has been
Mtlier extensive of late vears, an 1 In some
coses ciu.le proatable. j.lch mau seek alter
them for their children, and some adnlts are
not exempt from a weakness for them. Thers
arefirteen stallions shown, and they come
Irom New York, Michigan, Wisconsin, Mis
souri nnd Iowa. The Judging, which has not
yet taken place, will include teams of three
and four nnrcaMt. All tho poniue shown are
good specimens.
This completes a cursory view of the dif
ferent breeds which hnve been competing for
prizes. It will be noticed at once that the
show comprises for the mini part the useful
horses of the world, and is not a mere ex
bttdt ot fashionable coin and hunters. There
I. Indeed, no class of hunters, nor of cobs.
Tho horses shown arc all good, and as they
sro nearly all owned by American breeders
they can truly be said io rufloct cret',1 Tnn

a cotto srr.D oil-mill o uniniTiox.
Well townrd the east end of tho centre
nlnlo in Machinery Hall is a working model,
one-quarter sir.", of a complete cotton seed
oil-mill. The full-sir.ed mill will work 125
tons of cotton seed every twenty-four hours
and secure b:2 gallons of crude oil. It
forms one ot the moHt complete exhibits in
the building, for every detail Is cnrrled out
and every purt Is shown. The process Is
simple. V hen the sued comes from the gin
it in coated with lint or cotton fuzr.. The
seed is placed in a linter, which entirely ro-
moves thn lint, leaving tho seed clean und
ready forthn hiillcr. This mnehino takes oil
tho outKida ot tlio seed, separating lt from
thn fat or oil-produciug kernel. Thu "fat"
is fed into a hopper above a stack of five
ro'ls. each II Inches in diameter, 4 feet long
and lilHJO pounds lu weight. Feed-boards are
so arranged that tho seed in its downward
course passes from ouu pair of rollers to the
lower pair in a r.lg-wig manner.
The sood is only crushed by the rolls nnd
it fulls into n conveyor which lifts it to a
largo hopper having lour spouts over a eel
ot four heaters, which cook thu seed. The
heater hits u steam Jacket and a throe
pronged stirrer, which keeps thu sued from
burning. Tiin cooking process loosens it so
that it will (low under prcssuro, tor it will
not come from cold Seed.
After It is thoroughly cooked the eeod 1
conveyed into a receiver, whero It is kept
warm until ready for tbo press. From tin
receiver tlio hot seed Is druwn to a "former"
and under pressure ot 600 pounds to th
square inch niu'.e into cakes IT inchci
wide, thirty-two inches long and 1 inchci
thick. Thu cakes-nro then put Into a by.
ilraullo press, sixteen oakst to a press, cacb
cake in a separate box. When nil of tho six
presses are ill led the pumps nro started an!
worked up to a pressure of 4000 pounds to
tho suuuro inch. This starts tho oil nnd tin
pressure is sustained for twcnty-llvo oi
thirty minutes, until all tho oil that can lit
secured from thu seed bus run out. Tin
presses can obtain nbout uincty-llvo nei
cent, of ull thu oil.
Whi n the press is loosened tho cakes art
removed. They are hard ns rock and nrt
rrouud up into fertilizer. Thu crude oil is
tanked nud sliippod to tba rellnory. Large

A curious slirht in the streets of
Tokio is to see an old man seated on
a smooth piece of ground having
Miind him little piles of sand of dif
ferent colors red, blue, yellow, black,
etc. Placing a pinch from each pile
In his right hand, he will draw or. the
smooth iroiind f.e 11 ure of a man or
woman, the ilress all properly colotei!,
by tho saml trickling thtougn his

About lightning.
AHhoogh lightning and thunder
occur always simultaneously, an in
terval of shorter or longer duration
Is usually observed lictwccn these two
phenomena, which Is duo to the fact
that sound travels only at the rato of
1,100 feet per second, while the pass
ago of light Is almost Instantaneous,
flasedfupon this fact It Is an easy
matter to tell, nt least approximately,
how many miles a thunder-storm is
away.
A normal pulse will beat ah nit ono
stroko to the second, and bv count
Ing the puNe Peats during the Inter
val of the llgutnimt and the thunder
tho lapic of seconds Is arrived al and
consequently the number of feet,
which can be reduced to miles.
For example: If thlrtv seconds
clapso between the Hash of the light
ning and the crash of thunder, the
storm center is at a distance of .'! ',
Ooo feet, or ah ut n miles. An al
most accurat," ca'culatloii can be
made by using a watch with a minute
dial. Louisville Pot-Dispatch.
