Raiting Honei.
I believe It pays a farmer to mlse his
own colU with an tf or two. First, if
you have a deep-cheated, utrong-llmbed,
keen-eyed, good-tempered mnre. Sec
ond, if you know enough to train a first
claHs oolt when raised.
If you have a mare defective in wind,
limb, or disposition, don't for hu inan
ity 'g snke perpetuate these defects.
There is no department of husbandry in
which such utter want of judgment and
even common sense 1b used as in breed
ing horses. Three-fourths of all the old,
soft-boned, broken winded, deformed
mares in the country are breeding, and
nine-tenths of the fine bred, splendid
mares are seldom if ever bred. My ad
vice is, never breed any but a flrst-cliiss
mare; don't be guilty of knowingly rais
ing a poor colt; it never pnys to train or
wear out such a colt.
Again, having secured a first-class
colt, you are not sure of a good, reliable
horse unless you are capable of rightly
handling it. My plan is, begin to han
dle a colt the first time It ever sees you,
and never undertake to do anything
with it afterward and fall; and if the
colt ever needs punishment, always
make him punish himself don't strike
or scold him, and before he is old enough
to work his knowledge and obedience
will be equal. When this stale is attain
ed the horse's intelligence will corres
pond somewhat with his master's.
The cost is of secondary importance, in
raising horses, to the quality. The mis
erable, soft-boned.uioon-eyed colt always
costs more than he is worth. Therefore
it depends altogether upon the stock on
hand whether it will pay to raise colts.
There is no use trying to raise a good
colt from a poor mare, even with the
best sire, on earth. It can't be done,
because one defect it sure to spoil the
horse; "one weak link spoils the chain."
May as well make your farm wagon first
class except hubs of bass wood, and ex
pect good wear. Cor. Practical Farmer.
Fultz and Clawson Wheat.
As many of our readers are not ac
quainted with these new varieties of
wheat we give a brief description of
them. We have grown the Fultz for
two years, and it has done better than
any other variety in the neighborhood.
It is a smooth grain, with short straw,
and stands up better than any variety
we have ever grown. The berry is not
large, but very plump and weighs well.
Grown beside the Michigan amber this
year, it lacked six or eight inches of be
ing as tall, but yielded nearly a
third more grain to the straw, and sev
eral bushels more to the acre. We be
lieve that fifty bushels to the acre can
be grown of this variety without danger
of lodging. TheClawson wheat seems
to possess the same good qualities as the
Fultz, with the additional advantage of
beluga white wheat. Its characteris
tics are red chaff, bald, white kernel,
very large and plump; does not shell
readily may be quite ripe before cutting
and not shell; straw stiff at bottom, and
of medium height ; heads, before ripen
ing, turn down; matures as early as the
Mediterranean ; not subject to rust, and
hardy so far as winter and bad weather
have tested it, and because of large heads,
having many and large kernels, it is a
large yielder, having gone as high as
fifty bushels on an acre. As seed of
both these varieties can be had at a little
advance over the price of common
wheat, we advise farmers to try them.
Habit's of the Eel.
An animated discussion has been go
ing on in Germany quite recently with
regard to the natural history of the eel,
and in a late number of a scientific jour
nal the following points are set down as
pretty well substantiated. Though a
fresh water fish which passes the great
er part of its life in rivers, the eel spawns
in the sea. That it is viviparous is ex
tremely improbable. The eel found in
the upper waters of the rivers is almost
always female. At the age of four years
it goes down to the sea to spawn and
never returns to fresh water. The
spawning process is somehow dangerous
to the eel, thousands being found dead
near the mouths of rivers, with their
ovaries empty. The descent of the fish
to the sea does not appear to take place
at any definite period, but is probably de
pendent on the season for spawning.
The male is always much smaller than
the female, and never exceed half a
yard in length. The males never ascend
the head waters of rivers, but keep con.
tinually in the sea or In the lower reach,
es of the river. Nothing is definitely
known about the spawning season,
though it Is probable that the eggs are
deposited in the sea not far from the
mouths of rivers. .
