hold it up as a standard? It was started az an experiment and it has proved a success, both as a money-making and educational institution. In fact, the interest aroused and knowledge acquired in breeding, feed- ing and caring for dairy stock, as well as

growth of cheap and succulent food from which to increase and maintain the milk supply, are of incalculable value to the far- mers of this section of the country.

‘*Farmer’s” sneer at Mr. Shaw only serves to show which way the wind blows. That Mr. Shaw has used his influence in stimulating interest in the dairy business is true, and if, as the previous writer has in- sinuated, he was actuated by political motives, it proves nothing but Mr. Shaw's ec nfidence.n the future of that industiy. So dairying, We will now take the privilege of reply- ing to a few of his strictures on the trotting- bred horse, but in doing 8o it is not our intention to advance any long-winded argu- ments, as this animal is already appreciated by the most intelligent and progressive farmers and breeders in the country. His importance in the market as well as a factor in agriculture is {glly demonstrated by the fact that he is the only horse to-day that is not a drug on the market. The horse owes his popularity entirely to his usefulness. In fact, he has fought his way to recognition by sheer force of indiv- idual merit, unassisted by experim ental stations, agricultural lectures or any of those aids so freely and beneficially used in stimulating interest in other branches of the farming industry. All crankdom are having a kick alt him, but he is here to stay; not even science tl at has done so much with electricity to supersede the gen- eral purpose horse and render him almost worthless in the market can affect the mar- ket value of the swift fuoted light harness horse. *‘Farmer’ attributes the present de- pression in the horse business to the trot- ting-bred horse. How he arrives at such a conclusion I am unable to understand. Every breeder that has failed to dispose of his surplus horses knows if his horses were well-bred and stylish, they would meet with a re.dy sale at a remuuerative price, but unfortunately, many of the farmers find themeelves in possession of a lot of scrubs for which there is no earthly use. This state of affairs might have been partly ob- viated had the breeding ventures of the last ten er fifteen years been governed by intel- ligence and judgment instead of prejudice and ignorance. Some years ago there were « number of blood mares of Salidan, Don Juan, Mclonis Pony combination available for breeding pur- poses which if mated with standard bred blood of merit, would have produced a class of brood mares of style and substance from which we could now breed a type of road horses with sufficient game, style and en- durance to command respect in apy market and speed enough, to make this little Province known as ‘*IThe Horse Centre of the Dominion.” The few mares of this class that have been mated with trotting blocd fully demonstrate the accuracy of this conclusion by producing our most noted Island bred horses. But instead, of those mares being bred in the line | have just indicated, they were sacrificed to prejudice, bred to any cross-road scrub whose service could be obtsined for 4 couple of dollars with the result that ‘‘Farmer” has pictured in his letter and wishes to attribute to the trotting bred horse. To this “penny wise and pound foolish” system we can ascribe the present depression in the horse business. **Farmer” in common with many other farmers, is under the erroneous impression that iv order to sell trotting-bred horses it will be uecessary to train them. Has it never occarred to this writer that a colt with trotting inheritance, style and conforma- tion might be sold at a remunerative price though ii never had the advantage of « trotting education? in fact, if th: farmers would make it a point to breed for those qual- ities, he would have no need to trouble him. self about the colt’s education, as he could sell him just as soon as he wanted to. ‘‘Paimer” evidently does not approve of those race courses that have sprung up through the coun- try. Time and space will not permit us now to express an opinion, but if “‘Farmer” wishes to know the important part that the treck has

In Australia, where population is sparse and distances are great soma remarkable feats of endurance in horse riding are cred- itedgto the mart d pele, feats more re- markable in s\n. instances, taking into ac- count all the «orc» mstences, than those ac- complished by tue winners of the wmili- tary ride between Vienna and Berlin. Trooper Power, in February, 1880, under- took en arduous journey across a most inhospitable country ia pursuit of a horse stealer named John Smith. This zealous officer travelled 766 miles in 26 days without changing horses. For one stage of 80 miles he was wholly without water, and the country was in such a bad state for 30 miles that his two horses had nothing to eat. His powers of endurance may be judged from the statement that he did 30 miles aday on worn out horses, along long dry stages, and with bad water or no water at all todrink. Trooper Willshire, on another occasion, rede 85 miles in 20 hours on one horee. This w+s on May 23, 1887, two days after the natives had “‘stuck up” Eri- dunda station. The same man travelled 200 miles in four days, when he heard that a comrade named Shirley had dled of thirst. He did not have the macadamized roads and plenty of fresh water like German officers, but he had a broiling sun to endure, sand hills to climb, ‘‘mulga” scrub to penetrate, and was sometimes compelled to take dead animals out of native weils before he could use the water.

Dickens at Christmas Time.

In our childish days my father used to take us, every twenty-fourth day of Decem- ber, to atoy shop in Holborn, where we were allowed to select our Christmas presents, and also any that we wished to give to our little companions, writes Mamie Dickens in the second of her delightful papers ‘‘My Father as | Recall Him,” in the Ciristmas number of The Ladies’ Home Journa!. Although | believe we were often an hour in the shop before our several tastes were satisfied, he never showed the least impatience, was always interested, and as desirous as we, that we should choose exactly what we liked best. As we grew older, present giving was con- fined to our several birthdays, and this anoual visit to the Holborn toy shop ceased. My father, although the most generous of mortals, did not observe, except in rare instances, the custom of sending Chrisimas gifts to people outside his home; there was so large aclaim upon him there that the pleasure would have been a tax had he gone beyond its walls.
