"Condition" in Uorses
"Condition" ban much to do with the ques
tion of ability to undergo severe labor in in
clement weather without uuduo hazard. Con
dition in a state of the body not acouiied in a
day, as all experienced horsemen know.
Without this the trotting or running horse is
well understood to posst-as no hardiness; in
other word", no power of ciidurauco under
bard pushing, and at tho samo.time a viUl
stamina that will onable tbo possessor to want
off disease, though hard pressed and over
heated. An attempt, often mudo by the
novice; to put a horse in condition for hard
labor by suddenly increasing hit feed, is inev
itably followed by failuie. Only a system of
prudant, steady feeding, daily, vigorous excr
ciso of tho muscle being practiced at tho same
time, will iniure success. If this bo omitted,
the animal will perspiro freely with even
moderate exertion. His head will bo found
to run up in tho frequency of his motion,
thumping against tho ribs more or lest vio
lently. Thi tun cosily bo detected by placing
the ear over tho region of the heart, or, in
fact, ovor any part of tho ohoit in proximity
to the heart. Suddenly feeding tho horse up
lixe a tendency to thi. Steady muscular
exertion builds against this tendency.and vir
tually removes it, if tho practice bo thoroughly
carried out. Do not mistake bv sunnoainu
that these results will only follow fast work.
A severe pull even a single effort, if lovero
will cause a vigorou spasmodic effort of the
heart aa though the animal had been brought
to his speed undor the lash. National Livt

the provident man will see to it that tho sys

Why hive these all under one roof f When
thin in (ho case, the lots of animals, bay, grain
and machinery by fire in terrible. It amounts'
inmully, in the United States, to hundreds
of thousands, ytn, perhaps to several millions
of dollar. And this is not only a great pri
vate, but a public loss, inasmuch an tho com

valuable, breeding animals, tho destruction of
which cannot bo made up for yearn, and possi

Tho barn should be devoted to the storage
of hay anT other fodder only. '1 he building
for the grain, steam envino and machinery for
grinding ought alno to stand by itself, some
dii'anca from all others. .Stables should lc in
separate buildings, uach accommodating not
over ten to twenty head of animals. If these
are tied up there, it should be in such a man
ner that they can bo instantly unloosed; and
thero sho'ild bu a sufheient number of doors
hung behind, opening outside, to let them
clear in a minute or two. If yards arc in the
rear, theae should have wide gates, easily
swung open, so that tho stock could pass
through quickly into the adjoining held,

building.

Sheep Looses.
California ho to regret the sacrifice of
many Iambs and not a few sheep this year.
Now and then, in former years, there have
liecn comidcrablo louos in the upper half of
the State by exposure to the violence of win
try storms, but tho Ions comes from other
causes ibis j car. In the north the sheep have
have had a very comfortable time, the feed
having started early, and tho weather having
continued mild. But the sacrifice has come
in tbo regions southward, where tho drouth,
rather than tho cold, has oppressed the flocks
Thousands of lamln have fallen beneath the
hammer stroke at birth, becauie the feed was
not cnouyh to nourish tlicir dams during suck
ling, and tho death of the offspring was tho
only chance of preserving the life of parents.
Many men w ho have shown considerable en
tcrpriso in securing well-bred bucks to im
prove their flocks have been compelled to
destroy tho young which t hoy have taken paius
to secure. Tko lesson of this year' experi
ence, as of tbo previous yiars in which losses
have occurred, is plainly that efforts should
be made to securo safety supplies of feed for
tho unfavorable .season which is likely to
come. And to do this thero must be an ollort
by sheep o uers to reduce their operations to
a farming basin, rather than trusting wholly
to the old wandering system. Sheep without
land is always dangerous. Hut tho whole
troublo docs not coma to the landless sheep
owners. Others, who might have had gooel
supplies of hay, or straw, or corn fodder,
have sold or burnt the ono or the other, thus
iriisuoK nnouy 10 mo weatner to prcsere
their enterprises. Thero will be less of this
in future. Sheep owners aro continralK'com
ing upon a more cnlightoncd system of care,
and tho present year' experience will hasten
the movement. Pacific liural Press.
Tbo Difference.
In the markets for live stock, every day
furnishes abundant evidonce showing that he
who judiciously and constantly strive to
improve hi domestic animal, first b the in
troduction of bettor blood, and next by im
proved methods of fooding and sheltering,
will urely get hi reward. Day after day
scrubs of all kinds sell for prices far below
thoao paid at tho same time for stock ef
belter bl and in better condition, tho
difference in the averago qualities being quite
accurately indioated by the difference in the
average price ot the (everal kind of stock.
If farmers who are content to raise scrub,
or oven those who think a good looking grade
iro "will do a well a any" to top out their
grade or inferior animals, would accompany
their stock to market, they would see how
greatly they err. If they should take care to
chargo to their stock ivor) thing in tho shape
of food, care, interest and all the stock
coats them, and credit tho stock for all it re
turns, thoy would many timo be greatly dis
couraged; and if they would compare the
accouut with a similar account kept with
well bred and well-kept grade, tho would
bo inoro than discouraged thoy would bo
disgusted with their old ways aud turn to

Founder.
A disease that is too common in horses, is
caused most fnqucntly by driving or working
the animal till it is overheated or more or less
exhausted, and then allowing him to cool off
suddenly without nibbing dry. A horse
driven bard for several miles and then hitched
to a post in the open air in cold Winter
weather, and perhaps forgotten by tho driver,
who may be telling ttorics, or smoking a
cigar by a warm fire, the next morning, if not
sooner, it is noticed that tho animal ha not
eaten well, and can scarcely move from the
stall. Tho lamcncan may be chiefly in one
limb, or in more than one. Dr. Creasy, in his
recent lecture beforo the Connecticut Hoard
of Agriculture, aaid that any case of founder
can be cured if taken within thirty hour of
tho attack. e
The first thing to do is to place the horse'n
feet in tubs of warm water, then blanket
heavily, and pet the animal thoroughly warm
all over. The lameness in caused by a stag
nation of the blood in the feet, caused by be
ing cooled too rapidly after exhausting labor.
The warm water thins the blood, extends and
soften the blood vessels, and favors increased
circulation. In v ry bad cases, bleeding in
tho feet may be necessary, though ordinarily
it may be dispensed with.
Knowing the cause of founder, it will e
seen that it is much easier t' prevent than to
cure this direaac alter it becomes established.
In the first place, avoid very severe driving
and over exhaustion, but if abuse of thii kind
is unavoidable, see to it that the horse tint
has rikcd hi life in the service of his master
is not neglected at tho end of bis jturncy.
Drive into a warm shed or barn free from
cold draughts, and rub vigorously till tlie ani
mal is dried off. (Jive warm water to drink
and cover with warm blanket. In short,
treat the horse juit an you would treat your
self under like cirtunntaocen.
Alfalfa -It Will Pay Sn Oregon.

Farmers cannot afford to let the opportunity
pass, but should sow pastures. The average
farmsr who now raises a few well bred ihcep,
cattle and horses, is simply realising what will
bo a necessity in the future. Seed down pan-
tuici aud the reward will be great. What in
true of alfalfa an below is equally true of many
other cultivated grasses:
Mr. H. S. Thompson, one of our most intel
ligent, farmers and i-tock breeders in this vi
cinity," was in our attics the pint week. We
took occasion to it a ke enquiries as to his ex
periments in Rowng this ncd anil its produ;
tion. lie emphatically say it is a plant of
very great importance to Oregon farming.
His own experience has convinced him that it
is not only good in the green state for cattle,
sheep, horses and hogs, but that hogs will eat
it dried, from tbo stack with avidity. That
while he bed in California he had occasion to
visit upon business one of its very large-it
farit.iig,-tf.ablishmcnt9, where he saw hot's in
tbo hot weather of July being fed from stack-
of alfalfa hay, and Mr. Thompson says the
hogs ate it with avidity and throve upon it.
Mr. T. s-iys they cut this year from what they
estimated and sowed for eleven acres, what he
and bis men thought was forty tons of prime
hay at two cuttings. This was tha second
year from seeding. This experiment was at
the Fossil ranch. He also says that his experi
ments at liis Five Mile ranch have been very
gratifying, and furnish him with abundant
bay and feed. Mr. T. refers to experiments
away up upon the dry high lands that have
done well. The thanks of farmers who desire
to learn what is reliable, arc due to Mr. T. for
this account of his trial of alfalfa.
A Bear Bunt.
Ortffon C.ty Enterprise.
A many of the readers of your valuable pa
p?r would llko to hear from me, I will relate
a little fun that I and my brother had on the
23d of December last. Myself and brother,
J. C. Wyland, and two other dogs, went out
in Kcarch of bears on what n known as Bear
Creek, northwest of where I live. After a
short hunt I discovered a ucst in the end of
an old log into which I peeped, and an I
peeped in tho old bear peepcil out; of courso
I drew my sweet Betsy to my face and at the
crack of the gun she fell back dead iu her
nest. I called for brother, and ho came iu
about two minutes. I told him to watch at
the other end aa there might bo inoro bears in
the log. I then called tho dogs, for they
wero out hunting, and the old h"und came
that hail uover seen a bear before. He rushed
into the hollow log and seized au old War by
tho head and brought her out and Bliook her
furiously. About that time another ber.r ran
out at the other end of tho log, and with inick
and deliberate aim my brother put a bullet
through tho head of that one. Now just
imagine the difficulty to get our meat home,
which was about three miles? But proud of
our day's work, wo managed to do tbenecer
sary work, knowing Christina was then near
at hand. We had a jolly roast, you bet.

Thump in Hot -
I have heard and read a great deal about
the euro of thumps in pigi. The complaint
usually cornel from thoce who havo theiriows
overfat at farrowing, or keep them confined in
small pen or yards, the sow havinir, per
haps, been overfed for fair. I think br. edcrs
make a sad mistake in feeding their best brood
sows for tho show pen. Wo are compelled by
most fair associations to either show our sows
in pig, or to swear they have produced n litter
within 'the year; they are fed, likewise, to
the detriment of the next generation of pigs.
Where sow are fed so high before farrowing,
and kept in clone pens, as they are compelled
to be during the fair, it is very injurious to
tho constitution of the pigs. Let your br od
sows have tcccas to a giasn, clover or rye pis
ture the year tountl; give them plentyof fresh
dirt and water, acd don't feed them too ri'l
food. Oct the best lioar (of whatever brood
you choose), alwaj s a pure one, and you can
raise healthy pigs, that will make good feed
era, to return a f.ir percentage for your labor
