We are in- ! 1 lined to Ijelieve that it the effori is | properly man- art-that is to say, if it is ■ ot made the nucleus for a clue- j ter ofsidc-ehows and gambling booths j —it will bo a success. The time stems to be ripe for the renewal of these exhibitions Money is tight, the financiers say, but the farmers of llte Slate have never been more pros¬ perous since the w r than they are to-day, end if they can be made to understand that fair is to he a farm¬ er’s fair, to which the faraers of the Statu may bring their aonsand daugh¬ ters with no fear that they will be confronted by any immoral spectacle, wo have no doubt they will contri¬ bute such aid ns will make it success¬ ful, not only in point of exhibits, but in point of attendance. The Ag- 1 icultural Society should endeavor to bring its fairs back to the old time standard, when success was based on the extent and character of the ex¬ hibits made and not on the amount of money taken in at the gate. The farmers of the State have old fashion¬ ed ideas about matters and things, an d they refuse to toh rate dap trap I \ : ppodroming. Let die Society e its fair in accord with these ideas aud tin y will have no cause to complain that their efforts are unap¬ preciated- The lair grounds at Ma eon ■„re the handsomest in the conn trv, aiiu it lias been demonstrated fime aud again that the citv knows in w to handle a crowd at a fair. There is therefore nothing in the way o SUUCi S3. Foori for Horses in Summer. The Country Gentleman says: The almost universal custom ot farmers in feeding tns-ir work horses with dry hav during the summer is not consistent with the principles of cor¬ rect. hygeine, or promotive of the creates! degree of health in horses. Indeed it is fair to infer that so long a continuance of dry food is injurious that it tends to produce a constipa¬ ted condition of the bowels, and to ■ ;*y the foundation of inflammatory disorders, and of severe fevers in sonv hist rices. One reason ot the « onutipat-ing effects of dry hay is its hard character, which makes it dif *ica!t to mas'icate, making tho p* r rteauon of the salivary fluid into its most solid part3 slow and difficult. Horses, when subsisting on hay or oilier dry food, have only opportuni ty to dilute and cool the circulation two or three times a day. In fact Qi Is V uors<*8 in northwestern locali e watered only twice daily , arly , . \et . very winter ami < spring. a little, reflection will convince the owner that more water is necessary with dry than with green food. In fuel, to maintain the degree of natur¬ al fluidity in the circulation it is ne¬ cessary that an extra quantity of wa- 'cr be given to horses aubs'st-ng on dry food. Farmers in the Hr t-ifth Is provnlo their v or k horses with :in abuiidauce of green fodder ir; their stables Su;t(i night and dry. rare or vetches toe very generally used for this purpose. The horses t ie fed 8 T 0 all quantities u* a tinte*dtiring the day, an<l full rat ions when bed time (at H o’clock.; 1 oiiics aiulind. In t 1 morning before the teams go to WOl 1 they are also fed 01 small quantitie four or five times between 4 and < o'clock In adf.it 0.1 to, or i'» of vetches, clover, cow grass, trefoil. lucern, n eguaft nod even rye, a)" used. The succu ]t-,ncy of faiich tood - tends to cool the blood.

'I’liere is nothing inconsistent in the supposition that large draft hor* ses, like the 8hire and Norman sorts, can be as easily raised in North America as in Europe if bulky food in large quantity be given to them w.h lc growing, Res des clovers in variety, we have grasses io variety and abundance for feeding in the sta¬ ble here in hot weather. Vetches, so widely grown in Great Britain, are not so well adapted as peas and rye mixed. Peas should be put in quite early for early soiling, with a peck of rye or wheat to three bushels of p as. The grain will hold the P eaf > °’F the ground sufficiently to al¬ low them to be mown easily and clean. After tho middle ot April, when planted for a succession, flint corn, at the rate of a peck to three bushels of 1 eaa, can take the place of the rye. The pea produces a large urn ont of straggling vine and this makes it a very suitable crop for soiling and cutting previous to and while in bloom. The notion that green and succu¬ lent food weakens horses, is only partially correct. When horses arc taken from dry, constipating food and fed on succulent green fodders the laxative effects are moderate but necessary and healthy. Horses fed on dry and concentrated food only are generally in a condition of incip¬ ient inflammation, liable to some form of lite shortening disease, and generally do not live out two thirds of their normal and possible life ; while on ibe other hand, horses that ar<- fully and carefully led with green bulky and not concentrated food, grown into animals of great size, power and endurance. They serve their owners truly and well for a score of years, living to a good old age, and are thereafter long ani fre¬ quently remembered for their faith¬ ful and profitable services. niE AMERICAN QUEEN l^KuThe best BUGGY in Aoae'ica for the Money.
