THE FARM.
'TRAINING THE COLT TO WORK.
.After the Colt has been trained so
he can behitched and driven
aboutout
with
some safety, the next step is to teach
him something about pulling. This is
so simple a matter, says T. Al Dobie in
Ohio Farmer, that T am•reallyashamed
to write "anything about it, Yet thous-
ands of edits receive their first lesson
in balking soon after
beingin
g hitched.d.
In aider to teach him to pull to his
capacity, it is only necessary to increase
his load so gradually that ucither you
nor be will ever know when the pull-
ing really begins. And if he is never
overloaded afterwards he twill never
balk.
It is important to use caution in hitch-
ing the colt for the first time to differ-
ent kinds of implements and vehicles.
If to one that runs somewhat heavy,
as the plow or tile harrow, he should
know something about pulling first, In
working to the plow it is not best to
use the ” jocky stick " at first. Hewn].
be apt to rush ahead, jerk his mouth
on tate hitch strap. rear up. and pos-
sibly learn some bad habits is this way.
But if the check lines are used, he can
be controlled without jerking, and after
he has been taught to ]seep his place,
the jooky stick may be used with sat-
isfaction and without clanger.
Tlzare is generally a scene when a
high spirited young horse is hitched for
the first time to a chattering machine,
such, as a mower or binder. They will
sometimes almost set him crazy. If he
is led around the field some distance
awt y at first:, then nearer to it. and
finally on all sides and close up to it,
lie may be hitched to it with perfect
safety, provided his working mate be
entirely safe.
It is a ball habit to keep the colt
standing in the stable for several days
with no exercise, and then hitch }dim
to eoIneth2.ng scary, just at the time
he cannot be worked to anything with
any satisfaction. Turn him out andiet
him; stretch his legs and work off some
of the surplus steam, and the change
for the better will be like magic. It
is a good idea to take the opportunity
when he is somewhat worked down in
spirits to bitch him to such things.
Thea he will not be likely to give any
serious trouble. and after a lesson or
'two in this condition it will be com-
paratively safe to hitch him up when
in pretty high spirits.
What shall we do with the very scary
colt? It is a bard question to answer.
Try to got his confidence. Get him to
believe that nothing can hurt him so
long as you have hind by the bit or
Bees. IL is really wonderful what some
men can do in this way. I was once
riding with a young mart who drove
a vary high spirited mare. He had
wrapped the lines around the whip and
had both hands under the robe. Sud-
denly she became frightened and start-
ed
ed on a " dead" run. That fellow nev-
er took his hands from under the robe.
He spoke to her once and the speed
slackened; again he spoke to her and
she came to a trot; after going- some
distance he spoke to her and she came
down to a walk, tossed up her bead
two or three times,and really looked
ashamed, Generally (not always) a
man can control and cool down a horse,
provided he can control himself and
keep cool. But many men, as soon as
a horse pricks up his ears and quickens
hie gait a little, get rattled, and their
batvli ng, frightened voice in such cases
will scare a horse as badly as almost
anything else.
1't is a common practice to strike a
horse with a whip every time he shies
at anything on the roadside. Nothing
worse could be done. The next time he
will not only be afraid of the object
but of i -be whip also, and by a little
training in this way he will soon be
confirmed in the habit of shying and
Fearing at everything. We have known
a number of good horses almost ruined
by this senseless practice. The better
way is to let him have ample time to
look at the object, and as soon as he
learne that it is not going to hurt him,
he will pay no attention to it.
But anything that may be said on
training colts can only be suggestive.
All depends on the man. If he has
not patience, is quick tempered, or
afraid, or has not sufficient interest
to study the colt and the best way to
manage him, he would better leave the
training of him to one skilled in that
line.
CULTURE OP RASPBERRIES.
The profit in raspberries in our coun-
try its igetting to be rather an uncer-
tain factor; writes Mr. Shirer, in Coun-
try Gentleman. Either the prices are
below the cost of production or else
tlhe canes are in a bad condition. OUT
own experience with raspberries has
been a checkered one. We had seasons
of splendid crops and also years of fail-
ures. We plant our blackcaps about
six feet by three feet. We gentrall.y
had good success in growing canes, es-
pecially during the ,first three years
of a. plantation. We aim to plantdeep
and: practice level culture. For a time
we used wire to tie the canes to, but
discovered that we could dispense with
it. If we pinch off the terminal bud of
the growing canes in time they will be-
come stocky and self-supporting. We
must remember, however, that a young
cane will still grow in height after the
terminal bud is removed. Right onthis
point many maks a mistake. If they.
want their caries three ;feet tall they
wait until they have reached that
height, and thenpinch out the top. The
result is that next spring they have
canes nearly folia feet high. 33y actual
measurement I have found that 'when
the terminal bud. is removed when a'.
cane is two feet high it will be two
feet six inches when matured. It is
therefore poor practice to wait until
the canes are four feet tall and then .
eut them back to .three feet. Such a
practice in a hot season has a tendenoy
to injure the canes: The trouble with
our black raspberries is bleat by the
first -of December many of the canes
are partially deada lierr3% growers used
to tell me that it teas On 'account of
thenature of our soil. Clay soil, they
1,.
said, . would be all right. Last fall
many patches situated on different soil
from ours were in a bad. condition. It
is evident that the canes are not win-
ter. killed.. They shed - their leaves
rather prematurely: I am of opinion
that it is the hot sun duringOctober
art!(1• Novenaber that does thinjury.
Some of last spring's planting are
In very bad condition. It see.ms that
last year it made very little difference
whether they were well cultivated or
received no attention. Perhaps after all
it is a certain disease that is lingering
among the canes. Perhaps there is an
insect at the roots. Toooften when
our plants are doing poorly we look
for tb,e cause- above the ground when
the real origin of the trouble is at the
roots. Red raspberries are in better
condition. They do usually well on our
soil. Most red varieties suoker very
badly, . We must treat these sprouts
as weeds, or else the erop will be a fail-
ure. The better plan is to cultivate the
red raspberries in hills instead of the
hedgerow. Once we had part of our
petiole in hills and the rest in the hedge-
row. While the latter had more stalks
to the row, they did not produce nearly
the number of berries the part kept in
hills did. The fruit was also of smaller
siza: If the patch is of any size, it is
a e
found plan to that it doeslvate botb. not pay to cauyts.baak i
the red raspberry canes during the
growing season. We should prefer to
take the old canes out immediately af-
ter picking and burn them, not because
11 wild Laceease the coming crop, but
that we may check the ravages of in-
sects and the spreading of fungous dis-
ease. The only insect that does any
pelceptibie injury to our red raspber-
ries is the tree cricket. Purpleraspber-
rnes are doing better on our soil than
the hlaok-caps. The demand for them
seams to be on the increase. It is some-
what strange that so many people will
cultivate raspberries so poorly. A few
years ago, just at raspberrytime, I
took a drive of about sixty miles. Dur -
Ing the whole route I saw only a few
patches that were recently cultivated.
In many patches the weeds had taken
full possession. Many of the patches
would yield double if constant cultiv-
aeon should be given. The best crop 1
we ever had, was when we gave once ,
a week cultivation even during pick-
ing tune. A good plan, if we do not
pink on Saturday, is to cultivate after
the fruit is gathered on Friday. Sanaa
object to the cultivation of raspberries
after the fruit is formed, because the
ground is too soft for the pickers if it
shouldrain; but there is no use cultivat-
ing deeper than two inches. Avoid
ridging. Bees seem to revel among the
raspberry blossoms, especially the red.
Prudence sometimes suggests ceasing
cultivation until they leave the patch.
I have cultivated when the patches lit-
erally swarmed. with bees. They neith-
er molested the horse nor the cultiva-
tor. The Rev. Mr. Langstroth, the
great bee man. told me that there is no
danger of the bees hurting either man
or horse. He said tide bee will not in-
jure any one when away from home
unless in self-defense.
FEEDING CHICKENS.
Don't be in n hurry to feed the chick-
ens as soon as you find they are out
of the shell. They don't need food the
first day, and won't eat unless it is
actually forced clown them. The yolk
of t i is absorbed
just be-
forehe egg, which
fore the chick leaves the shell, affords
sufficient nourishment for the first
twenty or twenty-four hours, and if
you force food down a chick soon after
hatching the chances aro that you will
kill it.
Fanny Field advises for the ” first
meal," to wet. up cornmeal and shorts—
two parts of meal to one of shorts.
with either milk or water enough to
make a pretty stiff dough, season with
a little salt, pepper and. soda, and bake
the loaf slowly until done. Crumble the
inside of this " jobnny cake " and feed
it dry; pour a little water on tlhe out-
side crust and soak it just enough so it
will crumble. Keep the chicks on this
food for the first three days ; then give
cornmeal and shorts --three parts of
meal to one of shorts—scalded to make
a stiff crumbly dough, and seasoned
Lightly with salt and pepper. Some-
times, once or twice a week, give oatmeal
in place of the shorts: and sometimes use
boiled potatoes and table scraps mixed
up with cornmeal. After the chicks are
a week or ten days old, mix in either
oil meal or ground beef scraps --a heap-
ing tablespoonful of either to "each pint
of meal before scalding. Twice a week
mix in a condition powder, in the pro-
portion of a heaping tablespoonful to
every.fifty chickens ; and on two other
days in a week throw in. once a day,
a handful of bone meal for the same
number of chickens. •
When the chicks are ten days old be-
gin feeding craoked corn and wheat,
and as soon as they eat it readily '
maks it the last meal at night.
For the first month feed. your chick-
ens five times a day regularly—the
first feed as soon as possible after sun-
rise, the last just before dark. After
tike first month, four times a day until
tlhe hen weans them, Give what they
will eat up clean each. time, and don't
waste the soft food by throwing it on
the ground, where it will be trodden
into the dirt and a good deal wasted.
Have some shallow feed troughs, or feed
on clean pieces of hoard.
.After the hen weans the chicks. don't
leave tliem to soramble for their food
among the older fowls. Give them a
good feed of the scalded meal and
shorts, etc., in the morning, and keep
cracked corn, wheat and oats where
tthey can help themselves through the
day. At night -a full feed of the grain.

YELLOW DOIMLNO.
At a recent ice carnival in London,
says the Pall Mall Gazette, one young
woman was the sensation of the even•
ing and created no end of inteaeat and
curiosity with her handsome costume
and her clever mode of disguising hen
identity. She was dressed in ,a yellow
satin domino, and over this were soft
draperies of lace and chiffon, tightly.
veiling the whole garment from neck to
hem. The domino was arranged like
a long cloak, and a bolero of course
linen, embroidered in gold and silver,
covered the shoulders and outlined the
figure, Over her head was a very re-
marleable hood made after some style
of headdress worn three . or four hun-
dred years ago. It was made of white
fauna lace and chiffon, -jewelled with.
emeralds and 5liinestones, and.. the
mask Ives of lace dotted with tiny, dia-
monds. Black shoes, stockings, and
gloves completed this interesting cos -
tame.

HEALTH.
H.
THAI SICK -ROOM.
In. caring for the sick, attention
shBald be given tothe' surroundings.
s
.
for upon these depend, in great meas-
ure, the camfart and often the re-
covery of the patient.
Firse of all, the sick -room, should be,
oarefully selected, with a view to its
location and size. These points be
-
came especially important, of caurse,
if the sickness is serielns, or is likely
to bei of long diu;raition,
The looatioxa of the room shauld de-
pend somewhat upon the nature of the
sickness. If the disease is contagious,
the patient should be removed as far
as possible from the other members of
the family, and no ane save the nurse
and pliytsician sholold be permitted to
albtcnd upon or visit hint. In such an
evenit a avow, at the top of the house
is best. selected.
Whatever the nature of the illness,
however, the sick -roam. should be on
the sunny side of the house, quiet and
easily ventilated. -
IG is of the very first importan;ae
that the air should be kept pure and
free from unwholesome odors, and to
accomplish this en unlimited supply of
fresh, outdoor air Ls indispensable.
If the room, is small, the opening of
a window is almost siu:Da to create a,
draught which will be felt by the pa-
tient ar his attendant; hut in a room
of elven modellwt.e size one ot the Win-
dt/we sire be open at the top without
musing discamferit or harm. This is
MO of the chief objections to a small
sick -room; it cannot: be properly ven-
tilated, a.nd the patient is compelled
to birt.:aths air which greatly hinders
Ix' s rerotlary. 1
Another important smatter in con-'
nation with the sick -doom is its tem-
pelrature. This should be subjeotto
but tittle envenom.. There must,
therefore, be some means of comfort-
ably heating the room, in cos:" i.t should
1pe !scesswry, and the temperature
shoo tld be regulated by coatrolling the
beat• -supply rather than by eloping the
winnows.
An open fireplace may be made to
serve a double purpose; it can be uti-
lized. bath as a meanie of heating and
for venitilaaion. 'A fire in the grate
heats the air in the flue and creates a
strong drought, which draws the ire
pure air of the room up the chimney.
If a. fire is not needed, the fireplace
can be made to serve simply as a means
of ventilation by siabstit,uting for the
fine a lighted lamp or gas -logs.
All unteecessary articles of furniture
or ornament, vehicle aro likely to col-
lect Oust, are best removed from the
sink -room, and care shtluld be taken,

DYSPEPSIA.
So many people snuffer from this ail-

that it seems the food eaten and the
hurry with wbi:ch it is dispatched are
the main causes. Yet there are numer-
ous others, and the manifestations ot
dyspepsia are so varied that it is impos-
sible tolay down anyone rule ofliv-,
ing that will apply to all cases. There
area few suggestions, however, which,
if followed, would benefit any dyspetio,
It is helpful in any form of dyspepsia to
masticate one's food thoroughly by
chewing slowly and deliberately, de-
pending upon the natural flow of the
saliva to moisten the food. The habit
of drinking while eating is a bad one
and ctzght to be discouraged. The use
of tea, coffee, or water tends to weak-
en the flow of saliva and the gastrio
juices of the stomach. When food is
taken hastily it is necessary to have
something to "wash it down," and fon
a weak stomach this only invites .fur-
ther trouble. Warm drinks are not so
bad as cold water, iced tea, eto. From
this can be readily seen that meals
meet be eaten slowly, food well mas-
ticated and drinks taken only after a
meal is finished. The dyspeptic needs
rest after eating. It encourages diges-
tion, while fatigue checks the ptrocess
and the consequence is that the food
becomes acid and ferments, generat-
ing gases.

diet he says: "I now commenced
feeding peanuts. One ;would thiels
this a very indigestible diet, but they
craved then, and it has always been
my policy to find out what; my patients
desire to eat, and unless it is too un-
reasonable I humor tbem. Both young
ladies have become nate plump, and
after a year's inhalation have ceased
coughing, and I pronounced them:

more agreeable than rancid stark oil

While not all can digest peanuts, a

eat them without disrofnfort."

British people and bat of secondary in-
terest to us, involving a :kind of pro-
perty they c.a.bned as their own, in
vindicating which they had captured the
vessels of our oltizens on the high seas;
suppose the tribune'. of arbitration had
decided the question against them and
had adjudged that thy should pay our
citizens damages for the captured ves-
sels. Suppose that instead of prompt-
ly ascertaining the amount of dam-
ages so payable they continued to throw
every obstacle and technilaiity in the
way of arriving at the amaunt; suppose.
during this time they had invited us
to make a genera: arbitration treaty
based upon sound and eoui•tab:e prin-
cipes, and that after we had expressed
Our willingness ll.ngness to agree to such a
treaty they had changed its scope and
virtually flung it balk at us. Sup-
pose after all this they should again
ask us to continue thte. protection of
that property which the arbitration
tri•bi,nwi decided was not ours when
found on the high seas. What would
we be apt to say? Would we smile sub-
missivey and reply: "You have treated
us so cordin 1y and so courteously, you
have paid the damages warded
against you so promptly and so cheer-
fully, you have exhibited such unde-
viating friendship and adimiration for
us, you have so promptly ratified the
arbitration treaty which you proposed
that we will gladly do all ui aur power
to promote yourr desires." Wowld we
show this beautiful. Christian spirit, or
womd we give our ,:answer a rougher
and more chur'uish turn ? No one can
doubt what we would do.
Now it is we who Melva treated Great
Britain in precisely this way, and yet
we are asking the British Government
to continue for another year the ar-
rangement far the protection of the
sexes agreed on faux years ago, which
is wholly. for our benefit. That Gov-
ernment is asked to prevent its Cana-
dian evubJeots frond: taking senile on the
