" How 70 TELL A HORSE'S AGE— The colt’ is born with twelve grind\evs- -when four front teeth have made their appearance, the colt is twelve Gays od, and when the next four come forth, it is four weeks old. "ien The corner teeth appear, the colt 5 eaght months old; when the latter iiwe attained the height of the front. leeth, it is one yearold. The two-year-«d colt has the Eernel (the substance’ “in the middle ‘of the tooth’s crowa) _ground out in all the front teeth, In’ “the'third wear the. nii_ddle front teeth zre beingshifted, and when three years @3 these are sybstituted by the flbrse ‘ <eeth. The next four teeth are’shift«d in the fourth year, and the corner ieeth .im the'fifth. At six years; the 3=rnel is worn ous Of the lower mid.die fromt teeth, “and the bridle teeth hae now attained to their full growth. . At seven years a hook has been formod inthe corner teeth of the upper suw, the kernel of the teeth next at he mpiddle is worn out, and the bridle segih begin to wear off.. At eight weurs,| the kernel is worn out of the idsver fromt teeth, ahd begins to de- . regee w 0 the middle upper front. In . “halninth vear,the keinel has wholly : | disuppeared ‘from the ypper middle. - dreit teeth: the ook an thé corner as! increased in size, and the bridle zwrth Jose their points. In the tenth jwezr. the kernel is worn out of the pees¥ mext to the middle front of the

.ot jaw, and in the eleventh year i 1 Lernel has entirely vanished from “1e corner teeth of the same jaw. At “mwelve vears old, the crowns.of all the “ropt teeth in the lower jaw have Pé-‘ T/ triangular, and the bridle teeth sre mich worn down. As the horse wdvauces -in age, the gums shrink away from tlie teéth, which, conseguently, receive a long nariow appearsnee, away from teeth, and their ker»#ls have become metamorphosedinto = darkish point, gray hairs increase in ihe forehead and over the eyes, and +%e ¢hin assumes the rerm of an A."

STORING AND KEEPING APPLES.— 4 Wisconsin farmer says: “Accordmg to reguest I will attempt to give a lescription of my' fruit-house just completed: | - :

“The size is 24%33 feet, two stories £ eight feet each, set over a cellar

=ith a seven foot wall. Common fence Tsbards -are used “for studding and sheeted on the outside’ with good matched stuff, and on the inside a lining of cheap common boards. Between ihe studding and these sheetings it is

filled with tan-bark excepting one space near each corner, which are left open to actas ventilators or chimneys, ?;armii ‘a: connection with air - tubes running through the building under

Ihe joists, fixed with valveson the outside to open or close at will. Under ihe joists of €ach story it is ceiled and a coating of two or three inches of tzn-bark spread over it. The floors are of common fencing laid open about eme-fourth of an inch so as to admit a iree circulation of air from below, passing into the ventilating chimneys ibrough holes cut through the ingide sheeting, and passing into%he open loff and escaping through the ventilators on the center of the roof, regulat«d by mojable slides and cut-offs. Inside of the lining is another course of matched stuff flailed on to furring an inch thick, thus making a dead air

“Ihe doors Es.nd windows ‘are all made double with blinds for the latter. Near. the center of the building are trap-doors through all the floors with Lioisting apparatus. The advantage «xpected to be gained by this mode of huilding is to be able to control the iexmperature evenly; both against the warm days of this season of the year, which is so great an obstacle to keeping the fruit in the ‘Noithwest, and “he severe frosts of winter without an artificial nßator eellar. The cost, all completed and painted, is about seven hundred dollars.” L

. Hooes NEED SULPHUR.— Whether- . bogs require sulphur as an essential .0 health, or whether- it is sought by - ibemas a condiment, may not be dis- | covered. But one thing is true, they - «evear it with greed whenever it is to e found. It is for this purpose prob--ably that they caneat large quantities . «isoft coal, which contains a large - zwpunt of sulphur. Perhaps this’ is ~_the most economical method of sup- !+ 3iying hogs with sulphur during the | . winter, when they require a good deal - - of carbon. But in summer it is'best . i feed it to them in substances which . comiain less carbon, on accourt of - ibeir producing less heat. - Mustard is ' ome of the best things for this purpose, and some of 1t should be sown in every pasture into which hogs are - turned. If hogs are kept in, or are in small yards, it is well to suppiy them , with the wild mustard that grows in - tis fields or highways, or to cultivate .~ sume of the better varieties for them. They will eat its leaves, its flowers, its . seeds and stalks.—HomeJournal. -

A PISEAPPLE should never be cut “muy more than hot bread should be. After baving clipped off. the rough gutside, 'says thei Grocers’ Criteriois; scoop out the “eyes” -with 'a sharp kuife, and then rest the apple on its base and seizing its top “sprouts”scalp with theleft band, run in a fork near tise bottom of the fruit, at an angle of sbout forty-five degrees, till it reaches “tuse core, then press the fork down so s 10 tear off a large mbuthful. Agaln “hussrt m—& and again pressdown and so ue to ‘tear off large bites wx'il you have sundered all the fruit «from the core or stem.. Do you ask the advantage of this tearing process over the ordinary way of cutting the frait? Crush one of these large hunks betipeen your teeth, and the result - wiil amswer your own question. = A iarge mouthful of more luscious and Wighly flavored pineapple juice will Wy«umm gurgle rejoicing dowa your throat than you ever ‘Pefore imagined to be possible. : .

_LAsT year, says the National Granger, we paid -foreign countries $50,000,000 for woolen goods and $11,000,000 for manufactured goods. When we have 'in the country 20,000,000 more sheepithan we now have we.shallonly produce what wool we uses and yet there is no country on earth where it would seem’sheep could be raised so profitably as in the U'nited States. But We are coming every year riearer to -supplying our own markets with the wool they demand. In 1875 the wool clip of the country was nearlly 209,000,090 pounds, while in" 1860 it was only 75,000,000 pounds, ,

S ,Had No Fun in Him. ’ One of the members of the Methodist conference, recently held here, was out for a walk at an early hour one morning, and while on Hayward-st. he encountered a strapping big fellow, who was drawing a wagon to a blacksmith shop. -t v “Cateh hold here.and help me down’ to the shop with this wagon, and I'll buy the whisky!” called- out the big [fellow. AT " | “Lnever drink,” solemnly replied the good man. . b - “Well, you can take a cigar.” i “I never smoke.” - ~ The man dropped the wagon-tongue, looked hard at the member,and asked: -“Don’t you chew ?” s *“No, sir,” was the decided reply.. “You must get mighty lonesome,” mused the teamster. "

“I guess I'm all ‘right—Tl feel first rate.” \

“I’ll bet you even that I can lay you on your back,” remarked the teamster. “Come, now, let’s warm up.” . “I never bet.”” B A

*Well, let’s take each other down for fun, then. You are as big as Yam, and T’ll give you the under hold.” .. “I never have fun.” =~

“Well, I'm going to tackle you anyway. Here we go!” A - > The teamster slid up and endeavor€d to get a neck hold, but he had only just commenced to fool about when he -was lifted clear off the grass and slammed against a tree box with such force that he gasped half a dozen times before he could get his breath. . “Now you keep away from me!” exclaimed the minister, picking up _his cane. °

“Bust -me if I don’t!” replied the teamster, as he edged off. “What’s the use in your lying and say that you don’t have any fun in you when you are chuck 'full of it? Blame it! you wanted to break my back, didn’t you ” —Detroit Free Press. L

Senator Conkling on Gov. Tilden, Whatever Senator Conkling might have thought of Gov. Tilden’s chances -in New York if he had received the presidential nomination ; instead of Gov. Hayes, certainly he talks very candidly and freely in ‘their favor now. He hasknown Mr/iTilden since 1834, and known him intimately eyer since, but always opposed to him in politics; he has “never known a man of greater purity or dignity of character or one with more attractive traits.” The effort to tarnish his character has “proven a signal failure.” He has “personally investigated several of the more important charges of dishonesty brought against Mr. Tilden, and has been able to show that they were utterly and absolufie]yx destitute of all foundation in truth,” As for New York, Mr. Conkling says, “It is going for Mr. Tilden,” and ventures “the prediction that his majority will not be less than 40,000.” Bravely and honorably spoken, Mr. Conklirg, Your aureoli shines more beautiful than ever, s

THE GEORGIA®ELECTION.

A/ Clean Democratic Sweep—Negroes | Voting the;Democratic Ticket. .

ATLANTA, Oct. B.—Full returns of the Georgia election put the majority at 78,000. There were four counties in which not a single radical vote was cast, three in which only one was cast, ten with less than ten and nineteen with less than fifty.. There are three negroes elected to the House, one Republican 'in the Senate, and seven in both Houses altogether. Thousands of negroes voted the democratic ticket. In Bob Toombs’ county not a radical vote has been cast in three years. The election returns insure a solid democratic delegation in Congress.

Billy Walton has returned from his visit to the State of New York, and although he is an ardent Republican, he says there is no doubt in the world that Tilden will carry that State by a very large majority. Instead of gaining a Republican vote here and there he says whole neighborhoods are 'going solid for Tilden. In New York they know him to be an honest, alee and patriotic . man, and the war he has made on the corrupt rings of both parties ' and the reduction he has brought about in State taxes has proved him to be just the kind of a Reformer that is needed at the hand of the government at Washington.— LaPorte Argus. - -

To Shake, or Not to Shake, Aye, that is the question. Is it better to quiver from head to foot in the paroxysms. of fever and ague or to banish the atrocious disease by a course of that standard anti-ferbile remedy, Hostetter’s DBitters. There cannot be mueh doubt as to the response of the malaria-stricken to this inquiry. From every locality on this continent whose inhabitants are tormented with the shivering plague comes an increasing demand for ‘the only genuine preventive and eradicant of malaria provided by science. The denizens of fever and ague districts .well know how utterly inadequate to do more than give a brief respite are the so-called remedies of the faculty. ‘Quinine, arsenic, bismuth—what are these but poisonous palliatives, which cease after a time to produce any beneficial effect whatever, and if persistr ed in wreak irreparable mischief upon the system? Everywhere they are being abandoned by imtelligent persons, and that genuine vegetable specific for intermittent and remittent disease, Hostetter’s Bitters, substituted in their place. - f 1244 w,

- QUR NEW YORK LETTEFR, : i ti sy ‘. THE SOUTHERN QUESTION. ' . ~ Although the defeat of the republican party in Indiana is directly attri‘buted by the liberal and cool-headed ‘men to the use of the bloody shirt, it is altogether probable that it will not | be withdrawn from the canvass. Af- | ter the election day in November, however, it will be entirely worn out, Tt is now too thin for use by any sav® such short-sighted partisans as Chandler, Grant and Chamberlain. The Governor of South Carolina re‘turned to his State after a journey to New England, and was met by ‘the United States Deputy-Marshals, who | bore before them a bloody shirt that | w§ dripping with carmine, and each ‘and every one of them pointed with pride to their hats which had been fairly riddled with bullets. The Governor, with the swiftness ot the wind, flew to the State House, ordered’ the whole white population disarmed, and shrieked to ' Washington for Federal bayonets. I hear that the President bas concluded to grant his request, so we may look for lively times hereafter. The ‘troops will go South, and Chamberlain is just the man to use them to make party capital. It makes 1 little difference how the business interests of the country are to suffer by ' the disastrous policy, for there is *ive more years of good stealing” in South Carolina, and Chamberlain 'and his gang are going to have it if mortal means can avail them. The news from that State, hesvever,” goes to ‘show that mo means, can save them from utter defeat. Wade Hampton seems to have the confidence of both the whites and blacks.

DEMOCRATIC PROSPECTS IN NEW.YORK ’ STATE. ' i

- Every politician is mow of the opinion that this. State will'be the battleground of the November election. This being ‘BO,l have no doubt but your readers would be glad of a word about the prospects of carrying it for the- Democrats. =~ A careful canvass made by D. Magone, jr., Chairman of the.State Committee, shows-that ‘the majority’ cannot fall lower than that by which Samuel J. Tilden carried the State 1n 1874, The two factions of the party ‘in this city Have. healed their differences, and the leaders are working harmoniously for the democratic ticket and Reform. Every day brings néw recruits, driven from 1 the républican ranks by the exposure of Edwin D. Morgan’s corrupt doings.- There has not been a questionable railroad movement before the Legislature of this State since he first came to office, that has not had his name mixed up with it. Both he’ i'and Thurlow Weed own stock in all of the railroads that obtained their charters by some underhanded means. | But more than .all, his connection with Tweed and the charter by which the ring | robberies in this city were made possible, will damn him 1n the eyes of the voters. Morgan was Governor of the State when that obnoxious measure was passed, and never raised a finger to prevent it. Is it possible that he ®xpects the people to place him again in the same position he has so outrageously abused. The united voices ‘of the people answer No! Co BAM

" During a case which was tried before the late Julee Maule, of England, a witness twice, in the course of both examination and /eross examination; declared there were only two things in the world which he admired--wo-men and horses. At the conclusion of the trial, the judge asked that the witness 'who had made this statement should be brought before him. ' “T think, sir,” said the judge, “that I understood you to say that in your opinion there are only two things in the world worthy of admiration—wo‘men and horses; is-that so?” =

“Yes, my lord, I said that, and I'm not ashamed to st?’k to it.” © «Very well,” said"the judge, solemnly; ¢#now I will give you &a piece of advice. ;When you go home, get an honest solieitor, if you can find one— I never could—to make your will for you, and have a clause inserted instructing your.executor to have your skin tanned after your death, and have a lady’s saddle made out.of the leath-

. Whistling to Keep up Courage. - (From the Ft. Wayne Sentinel.) . The Gazelte is tryving to encourage its readers by asserting that in October 1872 the Democrats elected Governor Hendricks by a majority of 1,148 and:yet in November Grant carried this-State by over 20,000. Tln October, 1872, the Republicans swept the two great States of Pennsylvania and Ohio by large majorities, and carried the entire ftate ticket in Indiana with the exception of Browne, who was scratched by the temperance - men. This year the Democrats have swept this State, electing Williams by five times: as large a majority as any candidate for Governor has received since 1864, and the balance of the ticket by nearly 10,000. They have carried West Virginia by the enormous majority of 12,000, and in Ohio; which gave 15,000 republican majority in Octcber, 1872, and which is-now the home of Republican Presidential nominee, they have held the majority down to 7,000, a reduction of one-haM. If the Republicans can see anything in these returns to give them hopes of electing Hayes, all right. - ¢ Fedt e

Do Not Like Plainness.

_Some of the hightoned Republicans about. town are alleging that Blue: Jeans ‘Williams does n’t wear broadcloth and kid gloves,and can’t play on the piano. They further aver that he ‘weamrs No: 9 boots, and kip ones at that. They alsc:charge that he sometimes wears patched breeches, and that once iipon a time, when a boy, he displayed his shirt tail through a rent | in his pantalpons at an unmentionable point. They also say that he eats fat bacon, corh bread and sorghum mog lasses. They also, say that he allows his children to run bare-footed in sammer time, and then makes them wash | their feet'before they go to bed. They ! also'say that he rides justa common horse, and' once was really seen upon the back of an old mule. For these and other similar reasons, they say his eléction is a disgrace to the State of | Indiana. Well, we feel soiry for the-e upper-ten Republicans,but at the same time we are mighty glad that for once we will have : a Governor such as’ Blue Jeans Williams will make. If ‘he cannot eat soup’ with a fork, play the piano and dance the Highland Fling, he can at least be a good, honest and faithful Governor, who will do ‘honor t¢ the State and credit to himself. - Indiamans may well rejoice in. the ‘sele,(;tion they have made.—7"he Brownstown Banner. !

The Indianapolis Sun thinks that the contest in- Indiana is between Tilden and: Cooper; and adds, that if the republican electoral ticket in'lndiana is withdrawn, Peter Cooper will carry the State in November, by 50,000 majority. ! b . o
