HOW A HORSE GALLOPS,
- -
Conventional Mode of Representation
and its Origin.
How does a horse gallop? Owing to
the rapidity of action it cannot be seen
by the human eye. However, just as the
individual spokes of a rapidly revolving
wheel. can be made visible by a flash of
lightning, so the action of a galloping
horse can be and has been analyzed by
instantaneous photography.
The statuette of Sysonby, the thor-
oughbred, has been made from photo -
as to form an acute angle with the line
of the body, and thus serve the purpose
of a, spring in breaking the force of the
impact of the hoof when the horse Is
going at top speed.
In the conventional mode of repre-
senting a galloping horse all four legs
are off the ground at once, but the
front pair are extended backward in
such a way that the under surfaces of
their hoofs are directed skyward, the
body being at the same time brought
near the ground. This conventional pose
appears to have been derived from a
dog running, when the front and hind.
pairs of legs are respectively extended
forward and backward, with the soles
of the bind feet turned upward.
This pose, it is thought, was adopted
to represent the gaelop of the horse by
the goldsmiths of Mycenae between 800
and 1000 B. C., whence. it was transmit-
ted by way of Persia and Siberia to
China and Japan, to return in the eight-
eenth century, as the result of cominer-
cial relations, to western Europe. --Chi-

NOVEMBER CROP BULLETIN.
The following statement concerning
crop conditions during the first week of
November, 1009, based ou the -returns
of nearly ono thousand correspondents,
has been prepared by the Ootnrio De-
partment of Agriculture.
Vali Wheat. While a few correspon-
dents claim that flie grain did uot turn
out as well as was expected from the
stand, the great majority of those re-
porting regard fall wheat as an extra
good crop.
Spring wheat. Each year farmers hey°
less to say about spring wheat. The crop
is described as frbui fair to good in both
yield and quality.
Barley. The yield of barley was veva
able, and, taking the Province over,
will be a little below an average yield:\
Oats. This erop may be described as
being in most cases rather light in yield
per acre and also light in weight per
measured bushel.
Peas. Opinions are nitwit divided ite to
peas, reports concerning the orop run-
ning front "poor" to "very good.' The
-weevil is still in evidence.
Mixed Grail*, The growing a mixed
grains appears to be gaining in favor,
although some correspondents object to
it. The favorite eombination, is late bar-
ley and early oats; then come peas and
oats; and barley, oats and peas.
The new fall evheat. The high prices
whica have been prevailing for wheat
have resulted in oe considerably enlarg-
ed area of that grain being sown this
fall.
Corn, Notwithstanding the backward-
ness of the spring and the consequent
lateness of planting, has turned out well.
Tobacco. This crop is ouly medium in
yield, but the leaf is of good quality.
Ituckivheat. A greatly increased acre-
age has been given to buokwheat this
year, owing to the wet, cold spring be-
ing adverse to the sowing of the more
standard grains. This will be remember-
ed as tbei buckwheat year.
Clover seed. The summer was too dry
for the best resells in clover seed. The
general quality of the seed saved ranks
high.
Potatoes, Notwithstanding that the
crop has suffered from &Guth in sozne
quarters, the general trend of returns
indicates an unusually • big yield of
large, smooth, sound looking potatoes.
Turnips. Reports regarding these
roots are variable, ranging from fair
to gool.
Mangel wurzels. These roots have not
done so well as turnips.
Carrots. Returns relating to carrots
are so meagre that they eau hardly be
densidered as a regular field crop.
e Sugar beets. A fair yield of rather
small size beets of good quality summar-
izes the reports regarding this crop.
Pena. Taking all classes of fruit to-
gether the year has been a fairly good
one. The yield of late fall and winter
apples has bean, up to the average.
There are some complaints of apples be-
ing small in size on account of midsum-
mer dronth, and heavy winds in Octo-
ber shook off a lot of the fruit. There
were the usual number of reports of
wormy fruit.
Live stock. Some correspoodeuts, more
particularly in the eastern portion of
the Province, speak favorably of the
condition of fall pastures, but the ma-
jority of the returns tell of rather close
cropping. The result is that live stook
as a rule are not in flesh, and there has
been a steady culling out of poor ani-
mals, more especially among dairy cows.
Good prices for all classes of live stock
have also helped to lessen the .ilumber
on hand.

ing dry midsummer conditions, has been
a good one for the dairy industry. Prices
have been fair far cheese and high for
butter, the latter branch of the indus-
try relatively making most ado -inure thia
season. The general quality of butter
was good, both in the creamery and
diary classes,
Poultry, Good prices for fowl for the
table, and equally good prices for eggs,
notwithstanding the high prices of grain,
are encouraging fanners to give more
attention to poultry raising.
Farm labor, There was a sufficiency
of farm labor, generally speaking, al,
though here and there a scarcity was
reported. The quality of much of the
labor offered was not up to the stand-
ard. The wages of farm laborers' are
ard. The wages of farm laborers are not
likely to rise, but rather to fall.
Threshing and marketing. Threshing
was well advanced as correspondeuts
wrote; in fact it was finished in most
cases. A. dollar a bushel for whet was
coaxing a moderate quantity ' of that
grain into the market, and some are evi-
dently holding back for even better
prices; but a majority are keeping the
bulk of their wheat, barley, oats and
other grains to feed to live stack, as
they claim that it pays thein as well in,
crash, and it also keeps up the fertility
of the soil.
Fodder supplies. The lessons of the
last two years in husbanding fodder sup-
plies have been well learned by Ontariq
farmers, and they face the coming win-
ter with confidence. There is a shortage
of hay compared with the average sea-
son, but most farmers have enough for
local need, and it is of prime quality.
Prices range all the way from $8 to $18
a ton, and some even higher, according
to locality. Straw, which usually sells
at about half the price of hay, is also
rather scarce, but it is clean and of
first-class quality. There will be plen-
ty of turnips, but a lighter supply of
the other roots. The immense yield of
fodder corn, however, assures, a fairly
Cafe wintering of live stock.
Fall plowing. The late harvesting de-
layed plowing, and the dry midsummer
made some relay soils so hard to break
up that plowing was rather backward
in many localities as correspondents
wrote. .
The Output of Wire.
For every man, woman and child in
this country there is produced each week
thteaquarters of a pound of wire; more
than three-quarters of a pound of nails,
half a pound of structural shapes, three-
quarters of a pound of plates, (me -third

ANOTHER APPLE DISEASE.
From Australia comes a wail over a.*
new apple disease called "bitter pit"
which is puzzling horticulturists and
scientists... Apples. in perfect condition
when packed frequently turn out so
badly affected with bitter pit at the
end ef the voyage to Europe that they
are almost unsaleable. Shippers are
often blamed for forwarding inferior
fruit, when they are really blameless,
because there was no sign of bitter pit
when the *fruit was sorted and packed.
No one knows the cause of bitter pit
or its life history, It is prevalent in
all the Australian states, and the seri-
our character of the visitation may be
gleaned from the fact that from ,60,000
to 80,000 cases of fruit are destroyed
in. a season by the scourge.
It is generally agreed by scientific
investigators that bitter pit is not a
fungoid disease, and therefore is not
transmitted by germs. -The theory gen-
erally accepted is that the disease is
connected with the . circulation of the
sap, causing fruit cells to die in spots.
These dead cells form the brown, bitter
flavored spots or "pits," which give the
disease its name. The matter is one not
without interest to Canadian apple
growers.

Promoted, by Marriage.
(By Searles Patterson.)
A bachelor worked in a way which
ought to have brought success to his
feet and still the stupendous efforts fail-
ed to place him much in advance of
fellow employees who worked in an easy -
go -lucky manner. Ile began to get dis-
gusted with life and looked on all chanc-
es as the gift of luck. There was uo
doubt of his ability aud he could not
account for his failure to rise; so be-
ing a practical man, he determined to
investigate by hinting at a better sal-
ary.
Within a few weeks he was called in-
to the manager's office.
"Mr. Manning, you are looking for a
raise or promotion, I understand; said
the manager.
"Yes, sir," Manning replied.
"Now, here's our position," continued
the; manager. " There is a place right
here in my office that would be open
to you according to your record, but you
seem to lack initiative. You are a good,
hard worker and we thoroughly appre-
ciate your services."
"I always try to do , my best," res-
ponded Manning.
"Now, I lelleve in talking to the men
under my employ from an individual
standpoint. I notice by the application
you made out several years ago that you
were not a married. man. Does that as-
sertion still hold .good?" and the man-
ager looked as if he already know the
answer, which was in the affirmative.
"Now, don't be offended, but I would
advise you to get married. Out of the
salary you have been getting you ought
to be able to make that desirable change
in your life It will give you the initia-
tive. The only trouble with you is that
you have gotten into the bachelor's rut.
I was in the fix myself and o little over
a year ago the superintendenb gave me
that bit of advice and I am going to
share it with you, for I stood by it and
prospered."
Six months later Manning was called
into the manager's office.
"Well,'said the manager, "I do be-
lieve something has happened down in
your department. Why, for three months
things have been running smoother than
ever before. Couldn't be better, Did
you take my lvice?".
"Yes," respell. ed lefanning, " and X
am the happiest num in the world."
"Fine," said the manager. "I am go.

yourself iny assistant from now on if
you desire the position."

Dut while the fair emissary has con-
verted all of us to the point where we're
ready to vote for female suffrage in
England, it is painfully evident that she
'will really influence public opinion in
this country very little, so far its the
question coPeerns ourselves. * * *
The experience of such states as have
tried the plan does not prove assertions
of the kind to be well founded. The
Colorado laws for the benefit of women
and eldlaren are no better than those
of eastern states, .Many call them
worse, in fact.

"1 hare brought up a, large family
and have' always enjoyed good health
until the last two yews. I am fifty-
four years „of age, and at the oritical
time of life that comes to every wo-
man, I had pains in my right hip and
shouider. I could not Ile down two
minutes at a time without suffering the
greatest agony. Sometimes I. awaken-
ed with a feeling as if eorneone liad
laid it piece of leo on my head, -
other time it would be a burning pain
uuder the left shoulder.
"1 took many medicines, but could get
no relief, till reading of cores of 'similar

Strange as it may seem, an ant has
at leest, six ears. Aside from their mul-
tiplicity they are located in just about
the queerest plaee imaginable—on the
legs. They seem deaf to all sounds
made by the vibration of the air,
but
detect tile slightest possible vibrations
of solid material,
Thie is supposed to be to their advan-
tage, in that such things as approaching
footsteps tell more of the possibility of
danger than such sounde as are trans-
mitted theough the air.
So sensitive are their feet, says St,
Nicholas, that they detect the impact of
it small birdshot dropped on the table
from a height of about six inches, and
about fourteen feet distant from an arti-
ifilicsabiatlnieess.tplaced at the other end of
As curioue as are their ears, their
Posers are even inore extraordinary. As
the ants spend most of their time in
the eerie, they met depend largely on
scent for their guidance, and in conse-
quence have quite an elaborate array of
noses, each. for a special purpose.
Miss Adele Fielde believes that their
antenae are composed of a number of
noses strung along in a line. Still more
strange is that fact that each of these
noses ean smell only special thing.
The nose on the tip or first joint of
the antenna, it is said, is for recogniz-
ing the odor of the home; the one on
the seeond joint is to recognize relatives.
The third. nose is the pathfinder, and,
without it the poor ant cannot follow
a trail aid soon gets hopelessly lost:
The noses on the fourth and fifth joint
are for reeogniziog the eggs and imma-
ture ants in the nest.
No creature la more tidy than an
ant, who cannot tolerate the presence of
dirt on hee body. These little creatures
actually use a _number or real toilet
articles in keeping themselves clean. No
less an authority than Dr. 'McCook says
their toilet articles consist of coarse and
fine tooth combs, hair brushes,
sponges and even washes and soap. Their
saliva is their lignid soap, and their
soft tongues are their sponges.
Their combs like their ears are fast-
ened to their legs, They stop for a
hasty clean-up when they get dirty.
But a more leisurely toilet is made
when they feel in a loafing mood, and
they then lend a helping hand to one
another in the process.
A Cimmerian Abysm.
(13y it Banker.)
The extreme depths of the great ocean,
in places more than five miles deep, are
immersed in eternal darkzess. But these
cimmerian eliambees of the deep are not-
withstanding peopled with innumerable
living creatures, from the minute and
lovely foraminifera to the mighty blear -
eyed monsters, hideous, slimy, serpentine
things creeping about atid granpling and
devouring each other, or the misshapen
and repulsive giant octopus, its tentacles
thirty feet long, one A body as large as
a small elephant, and with cruel canning
eyes a foot in diameter.
of these dwellers in perpetual darkness,
it is now, however, known that mai y
perhaps all, are provided by Notate with
powerful phosphorescent illuminating
powers, enabling them to see and. track
their prey with facility.
But not the denizens of these. dismal
anesonabre submarine deserts alone are
endowed with illuminating faculties. The
pretty firefly flitting amidst the myrtle
sprays, the humble glow-worm witk its
glitteringremoroue ligleis, or the common
rock -boring pholai, which possesses the
property to such a degree that it is said
that if it be eaten the mouth glows with
phosphorescent light for some thne, are
a few examples among many others. But
unquestionably the most lovely display
of this luminousity is that produced by
a small organism known as Noctiluca
miharis, more or less common in tem-
perate waters. Two or three decades
ago an imposing pageant was witnessed
in the North Sea caused by countless
myriads of these minute creatures. Soon
after the steamer ha,d started from port,
the sea, in places, appeared as though
the moon, although not visible, were
shining brilliantly upon the waters,
lighting up the rippling wavelets in a
lustrous, shimmerieg glow. Rapidly the
illuminated area, increased and now the
vessel is in the midst of it, the ocean ale.
peering as a sea of molten silver. Stand-
ing at the stern of the vessel the agitat-
ed water is a surging whirlpool of gyrat-
ing wildfire all aglow in a dazzling, lus-
trous beauty; while the water thrown
off from the bows is a scintillating eas-
eade of liquid fire flashing itt vivid,
splendent lustre; every drop, every wisp
of spray, eparkling, and gleaming as
though a shower of luminous, pearls or
opals were hurtling through the air. s
And so it goes on for perhaps half an
hour or more, a scene of radiant fascin-
ation, almost sublime in its wondrous
radiance and beauty, until at length it
has all died away, and the vessel plows
her way through the darkness. Truly
Nature is all lovely. Whether it be the
flower -bedecked parterre, or the ravines
and glaciers of a range of snowelad
mountains, or the glens, and dales, and
sylvan scenes- of the eountryside, or the
fascinating attractions of the sea shore,
all is beautiful. No Wonder the angels
sang with joy at the Creation of it all.

Expensive Salmon.
The most imaginative of all pleasures
is salmon fishing, for nobody perhaps
has observed that a rich man -will pay
4200 for a month's rent of a river or of
a beat on a, river and compared with
sum with the salmon captured.
As a rule in the month fifty fish tak-
en is a very high average. Thus every
fish costs £4. Much more frequently a
fish a day is reckoned as a favorable re-
sult. The angled, in fact, is not paying
for' the fish—who would. pay £10 for a
fish weighing eight pounds? He is pity-
ing solely for the pleasures of the ino
agination, for hopes—which experience
should teach him to abandon—of catch-
ing fish—llustrated London News.

PRAYER.
0 Lord, if now and again we have
been straying from Thy way, even in
our thinking—whilst our heart has been
right, yet our thoughts have gone out
to make new creations of our own—
surely Thou, hest brought us back again,
humbled and subdued and broken in
pieces, that, we might ask for the old.
way and inquire for the ancient path,
and drink again out of the river of God
which is full of water. Thou dost not
chide us to our destruction, but to our
conversion; wherein we have hewn out
cisterns, broken cisterns, their broken-
ness has been Thy best correction, the
disappointment has been the interpre-
tation of Thy purpose, and we have
made a sword for our own hurt, and cut
ourselves in pieces before the Lord. 0
that we may in future cling to Thy tes-
timony, be steadfast to Thy word, firm
and loyal to Thy revelation, contented.
with what Thou hest shown unto us
and receiving it with all thankfulness
and delight, and pt with all the hope-
fulness of fuller revelation. If it be Thy
will, oh continue our days a little long-
er, but make our life as useful as it is
continuous; may every day bear some
fruit which shall be the development of
some new grace; the formation of char-
acter, the ennobling of principle, the out -
widening and glory of our best purpose
and highest aspiration. And when the
day is done, the work all dosed, it will
be our fruition to hear Thee say: Well
done. Amen.
UNKEMPT EDWAAD.
There was a little boy
Who wouldn't comb hia hair;
Ile thought be hadn't time
And said he didn't case.
At lea his mother said':
"Sines you are ea realise,
And will not comb your balr,
The thing we'll do is this—
"We will not cut your hair,
We haven't time you know;
It's such a bother too,
We'll have to let it grow."
And Edward cried "Hurrah!
I'll never have to stop
My games and waste any Rine
Al Thompson's barber shop."
Again he cried "Hurrah!
It's one less thing to do;"
And for a little while
He played the whole day through.
But pretty soon it seemed
The ehildren in the throng
Said "Isn't it too queer
That Edward's hair Is long?"
And longer, longer yet,
It grew and grew and grew,
Till Edward was distressed.
Nor knew what he Should do,
And then the children said,
"We're playing house to -day
Atid you must be girl
Or else you cannot play."
And fidwarel hastened home
And left the happy sport,
And cried: "Oh, another, dear,
want my hair cut short:
"I'll keep it smooth and neat
And brush it all the day;
I will not be a, girl,
And so I cannot play."
And EdWard's hair is notv
No longer a disgrace;
Each hair, indeed, is brushed
Eacaetly in Rs place.
