lumber mill men have not won their
final round, since the Southern Pacific
company has opened fire from a new
quarter and sued in the Federal court
tor an injunction against the Inter
state Commerce commission’s order
cutting down the $5 rate to San Fran
cisco and bay points.
The new attack
by the Southern Pacific company w ill
again check the lumber industry in the
valley, as it clouds the future with un
certainty.
Temporary injunctions are regarded
as very dangerous to business pros
pects, and especially so in this case.
Although the railroads propose to give
a bond to indemnify lumber manufac
turers in event o f losing the railroads’
case in court, the alleged bond does not
prove to be any protection to the lum
per industry. No n w lumber mill is
going to start up and no old mill is go

o f a railroad company to reimburse the
mill should a lower rate ultimately be
made.

The usefulness o f a horse depends
largely upon the quality of his feet. I f
they are sound and well taken care of
he Is able to travel and work well,
but if they are defective and neglected
his usefulness is impaired and he can
not be depended on In any emergency,
as he Is liable, when his services are
most needed, to become partially if not
wholly disabled, resulting In serious
loss to his owner. But few horses are
born with perfect feet, yet the defects
by carefui treatment are often entire
ly cured; also many horses with sound
hoofs are practically ruined by the
ignorance or carelessness of black
smiths.
The proper shoeing of horses and the
general care of their feet Is a matter
that should receive the strict attention
of every farmer, and yet. as a rule,
it is wofully neglected. The farmer
should have knowledge of the natural
formation of a horse's foot, so as to be
able to determine whether the animal
Is being properly shod or not, and
while that is being done he should
never go away and leave the smith to
slight the work to get through with It
or butcher Its feet If be does not un
derstand his business.
While no definite rules for shoeing
horses can be given, some general prin
ciples are acknowledged by all com
petent horseshoers, namely, the heel
should never be cut except to remove
a ragged point. The same is true of
the frog, which is an elastic cushion.

When the toe is too loug and projects

ihould never be applied to the foot to

smiths do merely to save time, when
they know It Is not right. A seared
surface between the hoof and the shoe
makes the contact less perfect and the
shoe necessurily less rigid than it ought
to be.
The outside of the hoof should not be
rasped more than is necessary to clinch
the nails, as this thins the crust and re

In the eutlre realm of scientific In
vestigation there Is nothing more Inter
esting and marvelous than the growth
and development of plants from the
beginning or the germination of the
seed to the reproduction of the germ.
Each species of plant bus Its distinct
ive character and life habits and only
flourishes where natural conditions are
favorable to Its growth. To attain any
degree of perfection, the soil and clim
ate combined must be such as the
plants require, although a moderate de
gree of success may be attained when
either of these factors are not exactly
suited to Its growth, but where both
are deficient In any considerable de
gree the plant can not be successfully
grown, except by artificial means
whereby the npcessnry natural condi
tions are created. I f the chemical com
position of the soil is favorable, and
climatic conditions unfavorable, the
latter can be created artificially—such
as protection from cold a n ! excessive
heat and lack of moisture--and, like
wise, If the soil is deficient In the
chemical elements which ti e plnnt re
quires, they can be addej to. but In
either case the process Is laborious and
expensive and the results unsatisfac
tory. All plants are indigenous to
certain kinds o f soil, and all soils are
especially adapted to the growth of
certain kinds of plants, and nature can
not be Improved upon In any way, nor
can her deficiencies be successfully
remedied by artificial means. In order,
therefore, to be successful In his busi
ness, the farmer must "keep close to
nature anil mark well her ways.” He
must raise only such crops as are best
adapted to the soil of his farm, In ac
cordance with
his experience, and
wholly refrain from extensive experi
ments with such as are of doubtful
utility.
