A auto, presumably a Janitor, rv
r-aily adv .snood some views in The
BREEDER's IIX tie OD horse breeding
which are so sound and so well worth
«eeemin*tinc that The Horse World
rej»rttdoeos them:
With a country as large as ours ami
live demand for good horses as groat as
It is there i- rv in f.>r all the good
horses of nil the different Itnwls, and
It we will import only the U-st of each
breed and farmers only patronize the
!<est there w ill be no cause to complain
of the 1-rvt-ds, 112. r it is not the good
ones that make the trouble in any
breed, but the poor and inferior ones.
Rut while the boom is on there will l»e
many a I t < kept for a stallion in this
country as well as in Europe that
would not make a third class dray
horse if made into a gelding.
Let us try to get the liest and discard
the Inferior of whatever breed we
choose and then quit trying to destroy
our neighbor's business because lie has
not the same breed of stock as our
selves. I always think it Is a very nar
row minded business man who can see
nothing good outside of his own pns
sessions. When 1 want to buy, 1 al
ways look with suspicion on such a
breeder or dealer.
Miinr'a Experience.
I believe tl-at the French coach horse,
carefully » looted from the best blood
of the government haras, representing
more than years of continuous
breeding under the most ritrid govern
ment supervision, offers the surest and
shortest cut to profitable horse breed
ing because of his prepotent j towers,
backed by strong individuality, says
Dr. G. M. TwitcbelL
Bred as those horses have been in ;
Maine 112 r more than ten years, the
ha if blood colts from trotting mares
are uniformly largo, upheaded, intelli
gent, courageous, stylish, fast walkers
and free drivers, with that beautiful
conformation which will always delight
the eye. You want to breed and cater
to the man of wealth, then tickle his
palate by suiting his fancy. I know
that hundreds of these colts could have
beea placed at long prices the past year
beyond the uumlter available because
they please. They are fearless, bold,
reach for the top of the hill, safe and
always ready for work. Beyond this
they are proving great roadsters. Beau
ty is all right in the dooryard or else
where, but we want to see the beauty
of the h 'rse showing itself on the road
at ei~bt mik-s an hour or better and not
alone in the dooryard or show ring.
Handsome is as handsome does, ami
the horse to please must IK? full of the
out and on spirit.
On the Trnek In
A forerunner of last year's successful
season of harness racing was furnished
In the great interest that was display
ed, together with the immense patron
age, at the early runniug meetings in
the south and east, the trotting season
having opened with the same burst of
enthusiasm. It grow better as the sea
son advanced, and financially it was
all around the best year of the past
decade. Indeed it was with reluctance
that the public saw the season close lu
October. The success of the year and
the good feeling that prevailed left the
Impression in all minds that the season
of 3902 would be still greater, with the
jtossible exception that good racing
material would be more scarce, ac
cording to The Horseman. Again, tak
ing the early meetings of the year on
the running tracks of the south as a
criterion, those who are strong in the 1
•pinion that all records will be broken
this year will not be disappointed. The
runnlnc season started in with tremen
dous enthusiasm prevailing in all <juar- i
ters.
I (-Hlas a StalHcn <.r»«.
"Should a stallion have grass as a
part of his daiiy ration during the
breeding seasonV asks a subscriber of
The Breeder's Gazette.
Some grass is good for a stallion dur- '
ing his season, but too much is hurtful
In more was than one. If a horse can
Lave a po-*j grass lot in which to run
and exercise. be will eat no more than
is good for him, and if not allowed to ,
eat too much at first will prove all the I
surer for it, but to make a practice of
throwing a breeding horse a mangerful
of soft, watery timothy aud clover or
other Jong grass at night and letting
Ktini gorge himself on the useless bulky
food is to l*e condemned. If a paddock
Is not available, blue grass should be
mowed for tbe horse nrd fed in small
quantities twice a day, the idea being
more to enable the horse to make bet
ter use of the hard grain fed him than
to give him any particular amount of
xjomishment in the green crop.
The Mare at I OHUBK Time.
Much of the success that should at
tend hi rs> breeding depends upon the
ore an 'J atl'Tit n !-.stowed upon the.
mare toward a:;d at foaling time, as
then uc4 ««i:y are her own health and

its waters readily directed to a single
channel or to a pipe leading to a reser
voir (see the cutsi. Professor \\ ickson
of California in writing of field and
garden irrigation tells how by this
ni.ans wasit land which is both use
less and treacherous is reclaimed and
made productive, while at the same
time the waste water which destroyed
it is utilized to make other lauds more
productive.
Professor Wickson says: Many farms
have blemishes of this kind to be re
■ moved, and long and costly" channels
| are cut merely to provide an outflow
to a water course. It would often be
j less expensive to include a system of i
i irrigation and thus to double the return j
for the necessary expenditure. Foul ,
mml holes which are maintained for ,
watering slock can lie made to yield a i
wholesome water supply for stock and
an irrigation supply for the farm gar- ,
den by piping from the reservoir, which i
can be constructed on the silo of the old
mudliole at a little cost. All these im- ■
provenients can lie accomplished by the !
ordinary methods and materials for un
derground drainage.
There is one matter in connection
with a projected utilization for any
small outcropping of water to which
careful attention should be given, and
that is approximate knowledge of the
amount of water which can be made
available. This may be obtained be
fore investment of labor or material is
made by opening up the spring thor
oughly, cleaning it out to expose its
outflow and measuring the flow in a
water basin or a vessel of known
capacity. Note the time required to till
the vessel, and it can be quickly cal
culated how much the spring will yield
in twenty-four hours. Almost every
one will be surprised at the result of
the measurement. A trickle of water
thought to be too insignificant for con
sideratioii will be found to yield a very
effective continuous flow if the water
is collected.
A five gallon oil can is a handy meas
ure. Suppose the spring tills it in two
minutes, the yield would then be IUJo«i
gallons in twenty-four hours, or 10N,-
tmo gallons In one month, and this
amount is equivalent to nearly four
inches of rainfall on an acre of ground, j
Such an amount, if carefully collected
and applied, would keep a garden of
small fruits and vegetables in good ;
growth even with very little rainfall if
the soil l>e of a fairly retentive charac
ter. As a safety supply against the •
short droughts of the humid region it
would rescue a crop which might be
worth several hundred dollars.
Thus a little outflow from a spring .
which might pass away unnoticed un
derground or at most by surface flow i
would only make a sedgy streak across

a corner of a field, can be made a po
tent factor in production. Of course
in handling water from such a small
source of supply it must be constantly
protected from loss. It would disap
pear in an open ditch in a short time.
Usually it must be conveyed in a pipe
to a tank or tight reservoir and collect- J
ed in sufficient volume to cover quite
an area at each application.

Melon growers are now quite com
monly us:tig (!i « ; ilie regenerating
agent in their or >p rotation. The mel
on crop may follow a hoed crop which
was preceded I y ' ■■ r sod, or it may
follow clover i ly. The ground is
marked six fort apart each way, and
the hills only are fertilised with barn
yard manure or a complete commercial
fertilizer. This is a common practice
when either planis or seels are used
In the field. A forkful of barnyard ma
nure or a handful of lerlilizcr is work
ed into the ground at the intersection
of the rows. Ten or fifteen seeds are
dropped in tin* hill, a liberal allowance
being math* for possible cutworm in
jury. When well established, the plants
are thinned to four or live in the hill.
Another plan followed by some is to
sow as for beets in the field In rows
five to seven feet apart, thinning to
approximately two feet apart in the
row after danger of frost and cutworm
injury is practically over. \\ here this
plan is followed the fertilizer may be
sown with a one horse seed drill at the
time of seeding.
When seeding in the field is adopted,
the cultivator should be used promptly
and frequently. Shallow tillage is or
should be the rule. No need to wait for
the plants to appear. Moisture is con
served and weeds are kept down by be
ginning to till immediately after seed
ing. The marker has furnished guide
posts. Some hard work is necessary in
thinning and weeding about the hills.
The soil should be stirred frequently
and as long as the vines will admit.
The yield may be materially lessened
by dry weather in midsummer, tlie pos
sible ill effects of which may, however,
be largely averted by persistent shal
low cultivation as long as the growth ,
of vines will permit.—John Craig, New
York.

Tli«* QnickeM Acting I'lnnt Food.
If home mixing of fertilizers is to be
done, a definite knowledge should be i
had of the materials which supply |
plant food. Nitrate of soda is inline- '
diately available for the plant's use as
soon as it goes into solution. Its best i
results are obtained when applied
where growing plants can make use of
jit quickly. Where plants grow in hills
j or drills the nitrate of soda should be
I applied near the growing plants, but
' should be thoroughly mixed with the
, soil. If applied broadcast upon sowed
' crops, it should be evenly distributed.
Nitrate of soda exerts its most bene
! ficial action where immediate results
I are desired. It is the quickest acting
! plant food. Dried blood, while not so
| immediate lu its action as nitrate of
soda, is very quickly available and as
a general supply for nitrogen it is safe
and valuable. Ammonium sulphate is
the richest in nitrogen of any commer
cial material, usually containing about
20 per .cent actual nitrogen. At the
present time the cost of nitrogen from
this source is greater than from either
nitrate of soda or dried blood. —L. A.

In an address before the American

In thi> fall of ISN3 we selected forty
head of Krade steer calves, consisting
of (Jalloways, Shorthorns and Ilere
-1 fords. We decided to make a practi
cal test and, if possible, ascertain
which breed of cattle would fjive the
best and quickest result as a beef pro
ducer. These calves were all fed in
tin- same lot and kept continually to
gether. giving each anil every one like

put 011 the market at two years o!«l at

Encslinh Jewelers' Tricl**.
Many working jewelers with whom
articles are left to repair are very
tricky individuals indeed, and women
are their chief victims. A great device
of the working jeweler, so far as gold
chains go, is to take off the hallmarked
fastening loops and to substitute for
these an exact imitation in metal, so
that these should always be most care
fully examined. In ladies' lockets the
jeweler fraud usually takes out the
gold inside rim which fastens the
glass, and of course he puts in a sham
substitute. Where an article sent to
him contains a great number of toler
ably small stones lie will take one or
two of these out and putin imitation
articles specially made to deceive, says
Woman's Life. A working jeweler has
been known to make pounds a week
by taking away the hallmarked cross
bars of gold alberts and replacing them
with brass. These remarks only, of
course, apply to the small number of
black sheep to be found in this as in
every trade.
I)ecud<*n<*e In Penmnimhip.
"While the people as a whole may
write more legibly than they did a gen
eration ago," said 1111 old writing teach
er, "there are not so many really ex
cellent penmen. The multiplication of
business colleges has improved the
handwriting of a portion of the public,
while the invention of the typewriter
has made it useless to acquire extra
skill in penmanship. Time was when
the first class penmen commanded high
salaries, but now there is such a slight
demand for good writers that the mar
ket Is overstocked. No penman can
compete with a typewriter, and so the
art of superior penmanship is gradual
ly dying out and will soon be lost."
