'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. - - ..ran.• 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. The French language Is now finally forbidden to be used in public speeches in Alsace-Lorraine, and several'iieet- ings have been -dissolvedon that ac- count., I 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, to keep it *plea), orderly and cheer- ful- DYSPEPSIA. So many people snuffer from this ail- ment, and especially in this country. 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.

Ayer's Cathartic Pills have, from the time of their preparation, been a continuous success with the public. , .And that means that Ayer's Pills accomplish what is promised. for them; they cure where others fail.

Which emphasizes the record: • 50 15 of Cures. Oat -of -door exercise, especially in the slunshine, is recommended for dyspep- tics, and gardening carried on with moderation is, an excellent medicine. Fresh eggs, broiled mutton chops, milk sipped slowly, , not !taken in long draughts, broiled fresh fish and entire wheat bread. one day old forms agood diet for many cases. Entire wheat bread, toasted, if desired, is stated to het one of the best cures for dyspepsia. With a clap of good coffee and a dish of cooked gluten with cream, it makes a very desirable breakfast. If cooked or stewed fruits are served the skins should neverbe eaten, especially in a caseof dyspepsia. Very ery often dieting will not help, and then it is probable that something is lacking which only a physician can remedy. NEW FOOD FOR CONISL'bTPTIVES. Dr. Brewer hats a new idea concern- ing food for eonsiump'tives. In addi- tion, ddition to inhalation of the filmes, of vine- gar he feeds theifn on peanuts, gives them. all they can eat without derang- ing their degestive organs. Two yoang Indies who bad been the rounds of cod liver oil and tonics without ma- terial benefit were p(xt an his treaty. went and recovered. Concerning the 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: well. The peanut was long known as an, excellent fat producer, and snuchi more agreeable than rancid stark oil that oftentimes is sold for cod lis er oil. While not all can digest peanuts, a great many even with feeble digestion eat them without disrofnfort."

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."
