They have changed some- what in appearance from the early specimens, but include in general their beauty, intelligence, good temper and endurance which have made them fa vorites as a general purpose horse. Blue Mountain Prince was bred and rals-ed by the late Austin Corbin of New York city at Newport, N. II. This horse bus been awarded many prizes at horse shows and exhibitions as a perfect example of the old original Morgan. He is of a rich dark chestnut colo.-. with a white strip in face and diamond on nose. Of perfect Morgan conformation throughout, he has served as a model for sculptors In search of a perfect Morgan type. He is richly BLUE MOUNTAIN PKINCK.

Blue . Mountain Prince partakes of three strains of Morgan blood viz, Woodbury, Sherman and Bullrush and has a pedigree as follows: Sired by Ethan -Allen 2d, son of Peter's Morgan, by Peter's Vermont, he by Glff ord Morgan, son of Woodbury Mor gan, he by Justin Morgan. The dam of Ethan Allen 2d was raised by Ste phen Dow of Woburn, Mass., and sired by old Ethan Allen, out of the famous Morgan mare Jennie. She was by Hale's Green Mountain Morgan, and her dam was owned by Dr. J. L. Woods of Boston and was called Phe be. She was by Tom Morgan, he by True Briton, making him a half broth er to Old Justin Morgan. Phebe's dam was sired by a horse called Nonde script Calves In Stanchions. The accompanying cut shows the best and cheapest method of keeping and feeding calves, according to the Southern Cultivator, which says: Any farmer who is handy with tools can make the trough and construct the Stanchions. By adopting this method you save room and each calf gets the food allotted to it. The calves cannot be fighting one another off, and you can save the manure better, also keep them cleaner. Every farmer who has CAIiF STANCHIONS. good cattle barn and raises any num ber of calves should have stanchions arranged as shown here. We want onr farmers to grow more food for cattle, then raise more cattle and final ly fix up to feed and care for them better. When we begin to take the same pride In raising a fine cow that we now take in growing a bale of cot ton per acre then we will be on the right road to true, successful farming. Care of the. Boar.

His disposition toward you will be to a great extent what you make it, and you can rest assured that he will appreciate and enjoy any kindness and rubbing that yon do for him and will not forget all of the injuries and await his chance to get even with you. Beef Cattle Breeding. A fair amount of flesh adds to a beef cow's appearance and has a commer cial Importance when her calves are offered for sale, but the best breeders endeavor to avoid excessive fat. espe cially after a cow has had several calves, when she may become a "shy" breeder if allowed to become fat The International.

I THE VETERINARY. ; The occurrence in Virginia of sore mouth of cattle, an Inflammation of the mucous membranes, has led Vet erinarian Spencer of the state expenl- ment station to outline in Southern Planter a course of treatment, "as fol lows: Remove afflicted animals from such pastures as have produced it,: Provide nutritive food, which must be sloppy or soft boiled roots, bran and ground oats and corn made into mashes. Pure water In nhnnrlnnee is very important Among medicinal agents there is a large group which give favorable results. Probably none can be selected which can modify the condition more than freely washing out the mouth two or three times daily with a warm 1 per cent solution of creoline, to be followed after each washing by the following mixture ap plied to the denuded surfaces wtth-jt swab of cotton tied on a small stick: Chlorate of potash, four ounces; tinc ture of Iron, four ounces; glycerin,, six ounces; water, one gallon. Fodder containing fungus is thought to be a fruitful cause of the disease. Poor Digestion In the Horse. A mare constantly loses flesh. Is hun gry all the time, teeth appear all right and no signs of worms are noticed. A veterinary surgeon who has seen a. vciexiuaiy BuiBeUu nu ua many such cases, generally with either bad teeth or worms, advises as follows i in Rural New Yorker: First" have mouth examined by a competent veterinarian. Employ a man whom you know is up to date to fix her mouth and then have a 'drug gist put up the following: Iron sul phate, four ounces; powdered gentian, six ounces; nux vomica, two ounces; powdered wormseed, four ounces; powdered ginger, two ounces; blood root, four ounces. Have this, all thor- animal a heaping teaspoonful morning and night with her oats and bran, and at the end of two weeks give her one half pint of raw linseed oil with one half ounce of turpentine mixed in thoroughly with the oil. Worms In Sheep. The Louisiana experiment station has been treating stomach and tape worms sheep and lambs with the following vermifuge: "Pulverized ros- In, one part; sublimed sulphur, two parts; air slaked lime, four parts; com mon salt, sixteen parts. These materi- ! ais were thoroughly mixed ana piacea ui a small wooaen dox protected irom the weather, and to which both ewes and lambs could have access at all times."

The Story of a Caxton In the Wesleyan Church Eecord is a paper by Mr. William Andrews of the. Hull Eoyal institution on "Curiosities of Book Collecting," in which he tells the story of the un earthing of a Carton at Thorneck hall, Lincolnshire. The butler was entrusted with the work of weeding out the superfluous books.

CONDENSED STORIES. " gtory of the New York Lobby and an Honest Legislator. Gene Wood, chief of the Albany lobbyists, told the other day. what he regarded as a good, joke on "Honest Dan" Bradley, a former Brooklyn senator. Senator Bradley abhorred lobbyists and side stepped every bill that had any semblance of graft connected with' it; hence his- sobriquet. A corporation meas ure was up for vote in the senate, and rumor had it that $5009 per vote was being paid to place it on the" statute books. Bradley heard "TOV CANNOT GET MY VOTE!" of the bribery and, meetdng some of the corporation lobbyists in the cor ridor, shook his fist in their face3 and shouted : "I might have supported this bill, but you cannot get my vote now !" "But the corporations opposing the bill are paying $5,000 to those who vote against it," said the lob byists. "You'll get $5,000 either way." "Then I'll stay out of the senate chamber when the bill comes up for action," snapped' the senator as he strode away. True to his word, Senator Brad ley left the senate chamber, and during his absence the bill was beat en. Bradley congratulated himself on his escape from suspicion of hav ing accepted a bribe. He went back to his desk and there found an en velope. It contained $500. "What's this for?" he asked of his neighboring senators. "That's what the corporations paid for those who stayed out while the vote was being taken! on that bilL" New York American.
