Tlio SLomica of tlis Horso In soverul pails of his anatomy the horso ia one of tho moil inlercaling of existing luauuinds, but none of his orgiuiri shows more marked peculiarities than his stomach. The first noticeable foiiluro in thia organ in the hoie is its rolatixely hinall hi.e. Tlii is moat strikingly brought out by comparing it with tho riloiiiuolin of the other do lueaticnled anliuuls. The capacity of tho ulouiueh in an average-sued hor.so is about three gallon". The stomach of an ordinary dog, hucIi as u ollio or a lotriovor, will hold more tluiu half a gallon, and that of a pig nearly two gallon!-. The o ami the sheep have four c.ivitiei that are generally termed dtoiniu'hos, and one of these the paunch has a capacity many times exceeding tho i-inglo caity of the hoiso. Another interesting feature of tho horso's stomach is noticeable until it is cut open. It is then een to havo two quite dilleieiit kinds of lining. Thus, its left half tho one at which the food enter is lined by a white, thick mein hiuno like that of tho gullet ; while the right half, by which the food leaves, has a soft, pinkish-yellow color. Now, from tho inlciucopic Mructuro of these two parts of the lining membrane, it is known that tho loft half takes no share in tho manufacture of tho gadrio juice, tliefoimatlou of which in tho main duty of a btomuch. It thus happens that the serviceable luit of the hotos stomach is even one-halt les than would appear from looking at tho outside of the organ. A third peculiarity of the stomach of theliotvo is that it is mi coustiuctcd that it is nlino-H or iiuito impossible for the animal to biing food that has once entered the utoiunch up again by tho gullet; in other wordr, to vomit. Every body haa soon a dog vomiting, and the net U performed quite easily by tho pig, Tho o mid sheep vomit as a normal part of tho nrooess of preparing their food tor digestion, for rumination. Tlio relatively small bizoof tlio horso's btonmch points to its being vory active, nml recent olervntion3 aeem to show that wUorcna in other animals the Htomaoh forma gastric juico only wlion ,..- . -j.

A consideration of the anatomy of tho horse's stomach all'ords soino useful in dications regarding feeding and watering. When convenient, hordes should bo fed at cboit rather t'mn nl long intervals. This is an obvioun indication, for tho small size of tho stomach precludes (ho horso from rapidly digesting a quantity of food sulllcient to servo him for a long period This applies with even greater forco to watering. It is n very common practice to water horses only three times a dry, the water doiiik y sumo given oeiore incus, unci by others afterwards. "Whichever of those plans is adopted, the system is bad; but it in wor-o when tho latter mctlud adopted. For when tho hors", with his email st mach already filled with food, dlgoslH a lai go quantity of water, a great portion of tlio food must be washed on Into the into 'tino before tho yn.it lie juico has had lime to act on it. And if it bo tho case that gastiio juico is formed even in tho fasting stomach, thon water ing before meals mut wash this juico into the intestine, where it is of no service. I loreoi should therefore have water at short intervals, and where praetio iblo thoy should havo froo access to it. in their mangers. When this is the case the horso drinks frequently, but never in quantities so great as practically to was i out his stomach. From tho North Mritish Agriculturist Caro or Brooding Marcs. From now until after foaling in spring the brood mnres deserves careful treatment. Wo do not mean that slio should be closely housed mid stall-fed, nor cued for as ono would in preparing an animal for tho show-ring. She should, it is true, have shelter during i-overo weather, but not bo deprived of exorcise, light and out of door life. In the advance sheets of the American Agriculturist for January, ".Stockbreeder" wiites as ono of oxpuiiouco and his suggestions will pay well to heed ; ho says that brood mares aro among the most profitable animals owned by the fanner, if thoy are good ones, and bred to good horses, other wise they should not ho kept at all. While admitting that there aiecircum- stances under which it may bo prolllablo to keep a poor horse, it certainly never pays to raiso one. A brood mare should ho iit-ed regularly and kindly until near tho time of her foaling, and generally both she and hor fo.il will be better for it. She should, however, it mi ued, be well fed, and not have to much com for some time heroic (oaling, two months if possible. Kho should lie loso at night, and it not ued, in the day time also. .Mares in the later stages of pregnancy are veiy liable to bo taken with violent pains, and if loose they will generally get relief by rolling, etc. I have kifowu some cases where loss of the colt, ami death of m.iiv.ie.-ulted from her struggles when tied in u stall, shortly after the birth of the colt, she may be worked, but not to excess, and she should not bo too much blamed if she objects to working at this time, for ninny very gixid tem pered marcs object stiongly to leaving their young, especially for the tlri-t few times. When the colt is from four t six months old, it may Ik weaned The mare should lo carefully attended to, until her milk diies up, at this time she will bo weak, and should bo well fed and kindly treated. Sulphur ror EcaU V. !'. Richmond, at the last meeting of the Illinois Wool-GroncntA.ociution, s.iid : "I am satisfied that tho free u:o of sulphur will prevent, if not cure tho scab in sheep.

After an abundant bearing season, with low prices in market, owners aro not to neglect their orclnuds, and to leavo them to tako care of thcmsclvc. Generous Ireatniont would tend to givo good crops in tho future, nml to givo more uniform craps in odd ami oven years. Tlicro tiro several different conditions in which orchards arc placed, lequiiing different treatment. A young and nowly sot orchard is to bo treated unliko an old and bearing ono; and ono in a cultivated Held lcquircs different man agement from ono in grass. As a gen eral rule, trees in tho lirst few years of th"ir growth phould havo tho wholo sur face of tho ground in which thoy stand kept in a state of mellow cultivation. It other crop3 occupy tho ground, they should bo such as admit and rcquiro tho fiequent pasago of tho horso cultivator and such had booing aa thoy need They cannot thrivo in a sowed garden ci op, and still less in a meadow, and a ciovor meadow is worst oi nu mr mom. Tlicio may bo somo exceptions to this general rule, and it mny do to allow gnus in young orchard provided tho soil is usually rich, nml a good top dres'ing of manure is given yearly, or an often as Micro appears n check in the growth of the tree. Hut commonly, they lequire i ultivntion for many years; and if tho scil is unfavorable, after they have reached full bearing size. When tho trees havo grown so largo that tho shado nearly provonts nil over growth, and thoy givo proiitablo leturns, an annual or biennial top-dressing of tho wholo ground with manure, will promoto moro copious bearing, and give larger and liner apples. Somo successful or cliardists havo mado the rest of their farms pay tributos to tho orchards by way of contributing mot of the inanuro mado on them for the benotlt of tho fruit. Tlio orchards did not cover a fifth part of tho land, but tho sales from them amounted to moro than all the grain, hay and loot crops. Tho best timo of tho year to mnlto tho application of tho inanuro is always in autumn. Tho long rains cary the lich solubo parts down to tho roots of tho tree, and thoy aro stimulated to an early start the next spring. Tho top dressing is best given to full bearing orclmrds in gras; and tho inanuro should bo finely and evenly spread ovor tho surface. If sheep have run on tho orchard from May till September, they will keep tho grass grazed short, nid to top-dressing with tho droppings, and dovour tho canker worms in tho premature fallen fruit. The surface of orchards should always be kept smooth and oven, to admit tho frco passage of wagons in gathering the fruit and to prevent tho bruising of ap ples blown off by wind. If cultivated, the plow may turn the furrow-lico against tho row of trees this year, and from it next year; the furrows should bo shallow near the trees, and any dead furrow avoided or filled. This caro is especially when aliout to seed tho ground down td grim Country Gen tleman. Trco Pruning. It frequently hnpiiens that we neglect to trim our apple trees at tho proper time, and it becomes necessary to re move largo limbs two or three inches in diameter. It takes t-o long foi eueh wounds to heal over that Mich pruning is very injurious to tho trees unless wo coat the wounds with bomething that will effectually protect them till now wood has grown oer. To the caieful cultivator who wishes to get the best return from his tree by keeping them in proper shape, and yet not injure them by so doing, this receipt is very valnablo. It soinotimcs becomes necessary in trimming pear trees affect ed with blight or remove all or a portion of tho top of tho tree, thus exposing a large wound in tho center of tho trco to the direct rays of tho sun. To bo ablo to protect tho wound effectually for a sufficient timo is a matter of vital im portance to tho longevity of tho tree. As this receipt is but little known even among fruit men, wo publish il for the benefit of nU interested. Wo have mado it only onco about eighteen months since, and have used it with tho most satisfactory results, lly long btauding it becomes a littlo thick. When such becomes its condition, n few drops of alcohol makes it all right. It needs no warming to nppl.v it, being the same winter and summer; for out door graft ing nothing can bo compared to it. Wo apply with a stiff turkey feather. In n few days tho alcohol ovaiwratcs, leaving tlio other ingredients forming ti per fect coating as haul aa stone. Tho receipt is ns follows : "Melt ono pound of common resin over a slow fire, add to it ono ouneo of beef-tallow, and stir woll. Tako it from tho fire, let it cool down a little, nnd then mix with it n tablespoonful of spirits of terpentine, and aftor that, about seven ounces of strong alcohol (93 por cent). Tho al cohol cools it down so rapidly that it will bo necessary to put it onco more on the lire, stirring it constantly. Still tho utmost caro must bo exorcised to pro vent tho alcohol from getting inllnmod. To avoid this, tho best wny is to lemove tbs vcsol from tho Hro when tho' lumps that may havo been formed commence melting again. This must be continued till tho whole is homogeneous mass liko honoy. It is best kept in a largo mouth ed bottle." When tho wound is over nn inch in dinmelor, wo coatil. It pays to do so. Foricnuning largo limbs we uo tho bund-saw. Trim in February, or Juno and July ; do not trim in cxtreino cold weather, or just nu tho sup is rising. With ti little thought and btudy nny good farmer can learn to trim his own trees bottor than many of tho profess ional tree trimmers who tiavel over the country. I hnvo noticed somo applo orchards seriously injured by those per sons. The greatest danger is in lopping tho ticos. I noticed ono orchard whero many of tho top limbs after being sovcre Iv 8hoitened had died down a footer more. Had tho wounds been properly protected such would not havo been the case. Tho seeds of ovegreons must bo sown In tho fall soon after they lipcn. A picco of ground should bo mado deep, and mellow in a sluuly situation. Sprinkle tho needs over the top of the fresh and mellow soil boforo it freezes permanently, and then cover vory lightly with very lino sand or leaf mold from tho forest. After this cover tho ground with boughs of evegreens or somo looso and light covering. In tho Spring this covering may bo romoved and tho seeds will vegetate. Evergreen seeds do not always germinate readily. If it is de sired to seeuro a plant from nearly every seed sown, it is advisable to sow them in siiauow Do.es m tlio fame manner as directed forsowing out of door?. Theo hoxes should bo placed in ti cold frame during tho "Winter. This frair.o may bo nothing moro than a nit in tho north sido of a building covered with glass. In this framo leavo tho boxes all tho next Summer, watering as tho plants havo need. Tlio following accounts of profits in fruit culture relates to tho "fruit belt" along the east shoro Lake Michigan: "Mr. Herrett's harvest this year netted him $1200. Ho sold ono lot of ono hun dred and fifty baskets of tho variety known as tho Golden Drop, a very pop ular peach, for $'2'27, and twelvo baskots brought him $2 per basket ; that is about the rate of .fvS to .f 10 per bushel. His peach plantation is composed of four teen acres. Last year ho realized ifioOO on this "patch;" this year, ?I200. Mr. Atwtitcr, of Ganges, claims a better rec ord. From four and one-half acres of pe.uhes he secured $12S.. Tho peaches wero tho Chilli, tho Crawford, tho Smock, etc. From three-fourths of an acre of grapes ho pocketed ."f.'ISO. Tho grtqics were tho Concord. This farm is within a short distance of tho lake.' Who knows a prettier vino of geuoral ornament than tho hop? Wo habitually associato the hop with tho poles and tho commercial air of tho hop-yard, but when viewed in its native beauty, as it clambers over fences or saplings, it possesses a modest and clean beauty which ono can find in few other vinos. Let one climb over a sliiub or small treo near the hoiuo, and you cannot fail to admire its careless aspect and its pen dent ball of yellow and green. Plant a root at the base of the tree, inanuro it well, mid then enjoy the plant from tho nppeaninco of the first light green llexilo shoot to tho brown-tint balls of Autumn. When tho vino dies in tho Fall rcinovo it to the ground. Tho next year the saino roots will send up the sanio garlands. 1885. HARPER'S WEEKLY.
