Souris, P. E. L, July 21st, 1890. |
Mxssrs. Eprrors,—In company with mY: wife and friends I left Boston on July 5, a*| noon, on the Clyde built steamship Halifax, | the best iron steamship for comfort and speed | plying between Canada and the United States. Arriving at Halifax on Sunday evening, at 5 p. m., we proceeded tothe Halifax Hotel, which is first-class in every particular. The city of Halifax is the strongest fortified town in North America. It is also the summer | station of the North Atlantic squadron. The city glistens with bayonets and red caate, and in this particular resembles English cities. | After a short stay in the city, and visiting its |
rincipal points of interest, we took rail for |
ictou, which is famous for its coal mines. A,ter a short stay we boarded the steamship Beaver, for Souris, P. E. I., which is called the Garden of the Gulf at this season of the year. We found Souris threaged with Ameri- can 6nd Canadian tourists. This town is the summer resort of the maritime provinces, as its lakes and rivers are not equalled for trout and salmon fishing in the Provinces, Our party were driven to the Sea View Hotel, B. C. Cox, proprietor. His hotel is adapted for tourists in every particular. Mr. - Cox assured us a pleasant time, for he himself, for almost a century, has guided the tourist on the lakes and rivers where fish abound,
We visited North Lake,’ securing several tine hauls of trout, and were entertained royally for a few days with one of the most genial farmers of that place. Souris is not only a pleasure resort, but has valuable indus- tries, such as canning lobsters, salmon, mack- erel, etc. After remaining a few weeks, being shown every kindness by the citizens, and combining business with pleasure, we re- turned to our home in Lynn.

Big Prices for English Horses
The present boom in trotting stock in this country seems to be more than equal- led by the upward tendency of the English market for thoroughbreds. The Britishers have had the running horse with them for something like three centuries, so that one would suppose that by this time the busi- ness of breeding the animal would have settled down into a normal channel, but such does not.seem to be the case, as, in spite of tremendous production, the prices of thoroughbred stock were never so high as at present. It is true that stakes of far greater value are offered than was the case half a century ago, and the lucky owner of a first-class two or three-year-old can pick up a fortune by legitimate winnings alone; but even when these facts are considered, the prices at which thoroughbred stallions of the untried variety are held are simply marvellous. When the titled owner of the great race horse Ormonde parted with his equine treasure last year to parties in South America, a mild sensation was caused by the price, $72,000, that the son of Bend Or fetched, and inasmuch as his wind was af- fected in such a manner that the infirmity might easily be transmitted to his progeny, it was the general verdict that when the ‘Duke of Westminster landed the irrepres- sible South American gentleman who sailed across the seas in search of a horse for stud purposes, he did a very neat job, indeed. | Seventy-two thousand dollars was ‘‘ the re-| cord” in the matter of prices for horses, | and alongside of that sum the $40,000 given ‘for Maud §., the fastest trotter, seemed ‘ small.
It was thought that nothing like the sum | obtained for Ormonde would ever again be given for a thoroughbred, but the Hun-
garian Government, which is in want of ‘some fresh blood for its breeding farms | just now, has discovered that the English market has been bulled in a systematic ‘manner. When the agent of the Hun- 'garians started out it was his intention to purchase Donovan, that in 1888 was the most successful two-year-old ever seen in England, and that as a three-year-old con- tinued his money-making career by winning the Epsom Derby and other classic events. The Hungarians offered $90,000 for Dono- yan, but the Duke of Portland, who owns the hozse, absolutely declined to part with him, although the animal’s racing days are thought by many to be at an end by reason of a weak leg. One reason why the Duke will not sell Dohovan is that it cherishes a hope that the horse will stand training long enough to win the Ascot gold cup, a trophy of the turf which that noblemen is more than ever anxious to secure now that he has married, for an ornament of that kind in the dining hall of his country house is what
) boon
in working order in quite an acquisition to the endowments which tend to make wur city and Province attractive during the summer season.
Those wio contribute in any way to such an object certainly evince a particular in. terest in our city and are the creditors of every memberofthe community. Equally commendable was the conduct of the pio- moter of the fountain near the Market House. No doubt the idea of which this is the embodiment was born of a regard for the public weal; but some evil spirit in the guise of a second thought has gained the ascendancy over the mind of the benefactor, for only on market days do we find the fountain ‘* wide open.”
Doubtless this market day fountain is a to man and beast from the country that can drink of its sparkling waters and be refreshed, and itis, too, of course, on ernest of our hospitality. But it is a very true, though somewhat trite saying, that ‘* charity begins at home,” and the citizens whose *‘ filthy lucre” goes to support this institution surely may, without any liability to a charge of undue exaction, ask these worthy water commissioners to allow the fountain to run continually during at least the summer months for the refreshment of the thirsty denisens and thirsty animals of the city.

Salt Every Day.
Dairy cattle should have access to salt every day, and salt should be added to their stable feed, A series of experiments has convinced me that when cows are denied salt for a period of even one week they will yield from 14 to 174 per cent. less milk, and that of an inferior quality. Such milk will, on an average turn sour in twenty- four hours less time than milk drawn from the same or similar cows receiving salt, all other conditions of treatment being equal. Comfortable quarters are indispensable to the health and well-being of cows. Stables during the winter should have a temper- ature constantly within the range of 40 to 55 degrees Fah. In summer time a shade should be provided in the pasture fields or adjacent thereto to protect against the bristle-making influence of July aad Au- gust suns, In all the management of cows such conditions should be provided and such care given as will insure excellent health and apparent contentment. When practicable, milking should be done by the same person, with regularity as to time. He only that hath clean hands should be allowed to milk a cow. I say “the” because 1 think the men of the farm should do all the milking, at least during the winter months, 1 have exercised the right of changing my mind on that subject since I left the farm. It is no more difficult to milk with dry hands than with them wet, It iscertainly more cleanly, and leaves the milk in a much more desirable conditicn for table use or manufacture. Pure stable atmosphere is indispensable to prevent con- tamination from that surce. Immediate straining will remove impurities which otherwise might be dissolved, to the per- manent injury of the whole product.—- Orange Judd.

delights the heart of the Britisher. After failing to get a price on Donovan, the agent of the Hungarian Government made a try for Barcaldine. It will be remembered by some American that Barcaldine, three or, four years ago, was practically anbeatable. | Sixty thousany dollars was offered and re-. fused for him. Then came Galliard, a horse
that cannot be rated in the same class with , Donovan and Barcaldine, and yet the} amount offered for Barcaldine would not) purchase him, and the agent has reported | to the Hungarian authorities that the sort of horse wanted is not to be had at any
reasonable price.
K b. ©. for the Stomach,
'
“Did you ever observe.” said Dr, James, in the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, **that a dyspeptic person who has suffered with the disease for a year or more is, nine cases out of ten, bald? The disease has a peculiar effect upon the hair. It causes it to be- come weak and very dry. The least pull will bring out a handful. There: is no known remedy which will prevent the hair from failing out if,a man’s stomach is out of order.”
Dys ticure—Is not a palliative, but a pa mS irst relieves, then controls, and finally entirely subdues the irritation and in- flammation of the stomach that causes indiges-
tion and dyspepsia.
