Our Horse Product.

Tue air is just now full of talk about horse trots. It is a question whether or not our people have not been attempting rather more in the production of ‘* trot- tera” than they are justified in attempting,

i. e., having in view the best interests of

the Province at large. No doubt there

lies a great temptation to rear trotters in the fact that a thousand dollars or more are occasionally obtained for a ** three-year- old.” The lucky farmers are, however, rare, while the risk in raising trotters is always great, and the time lost in training the *‘great majority,” which cannot be de- veloped has, necessarily, gone for nothing. It ought never to be forgotten that just as racers are rare, so the demand for racers must ever be limited. The useful horse in every day life is the horse that most persons, in town and country, desire to possess. Therefore, it might be well to devote some of the skill, time and care which is now lavished upon the *‘trotter” to the preduction of other kinds of horses for which there is an active demand. We cannot but regret that horse buyers whe came to the Province this year in search of large, stylish carriage horses, for use by gentlemen about towns, were compelled to go away unsatisfied, and that it is so fre- quently complained that ‘‘matched pairs’’ for wealthy men,—who are not particular about price or speed so long as their fancy is suited—cannot be obtained here. As suggested by a correspondent of the THE ExaMINEX, we might with advantage, and without giving up the trotter,. make more use of stallions such as Premier and Gem.

We note with pleasure that the directors of our Provincial Exhibition have still fur- ther extended the list of the diiferent kinds of horses for which prizes are to be given. Prizes are now to be awarded for special classes of standard-bred trotters, carriage- horses, aud Percherons. By giving prizes to owners of pure types of a larger number of distinct breeds, they give encouragement to the production of the best of each of these breeds, and so promote the raising of a larger number and greater variety of ex- cellent horses to meet the varied demands of the horse market. It is, for this reason, a pity that they did not alsv—when they were about it—make separate classes of the separate breeds of Ciydesdales and ‘‘Shire horses.” Eacouragement might also be held out to those whu are willing to intro- duce horses for riding purposes, such as those for which agents of the British Gov- ernment scoured the western part of Can- ada a few years ago.

This province is eminently suitable for the production of vigorous horses of every type; and there is no animal raised upon the farm for which so much money is ob- tained as for the horse. These two facts make it our duty and our interest to pro- mote the rearing of horses of the best types in al) the classes.

City Council.

A special meeting of the City Council was held this forenoon to consider the accounts unpaid for macadamizing and repairing the streets, etc. Councillor Horne, who was not in the city, was the only absentee.

Mayor Haviland explained the purpose for which the meeting was called, and sub- mitted the following statement showing the amounts paid for macadamizing and general repairs to streets up to 3lst August, ult. ; also the amounts due up tu date :—

Horse Notes.

Allerton’s record of 2.11, made the other day, stamps him as the crack stallion of the country.

relatively rapid. In his 2 year-old season he started the ball with a record 2.40} almost on the first race. He was worked easily, and his 2 year performance 1s 4 striking instance of the value of patience in the development of atrotter. He began

against a field of nine, his best time being 2244, and that in the last heat of the race. Within a month he started against time to beat 2.23, and won in 2 20}. He bettered the record the following day in a match against time by geing the mile in 2.19. A hard fought contest at Chicago on Aug. 20 of that year was won in relatively slow time, after five heats. Three days later he made his mark for the year at the same track in astake race for $2,000. Allerton had eight competitors, and won in three straight heats, with the fast time of 224, 2.21, oni 2,18} to his credit. In his 4-year old season Margaret S. van- guished him in hollow order in his second race for the year. It was for the Great Expectation stakes at Chicago, for which tive horses started. All but Allerton and Margaret S. were behind the distance flag when the mare finished in 2.185. The next heat fell to Allerton im the speedy time of 2.16}. He won the third heat handily in ¥.18), but was second in the fourth heat, the ware winning in 223}. Allerton was distanced in the fifth and deciding heat, the time of which was 2.20}. This race marked him as a star performer, but he did not appear on the track again till October. A rapid succession of races against time followed each other from the middle to the last of the month. His record was shaved from time to time, from 2.15 to 2.13}, at which mark he closed the year. The record was made Nov. 1, at Independence, la. During this, his fourth year of campaign- ing, he has shown steady improvement. A record of 2.11 at this early date is regarded by horsemen as a presage of a **best on re- cord for stallions” before the season closed. Nelson, his only rival, is but a fraction of a second faster on the records. Allerton is a large, brown stallion, whose breeding is of a pronounced George Wilkes strain. He is by Jay Bud, dam by Mambrino Boy. His grand-dam was Nora Wilkes, by George Wilkes.

Friday last was the last day of the grand circuit races at Philadelphia. C. J. Ham- lin’s celebrated team Globe and Justina essayed to beat the best team record, 2 155. One heat was trotted; the mile was made in 2.19}. The Pleasant Valley two year old, Cap:tania, trotted an exhibition mile

in 230. The 2 31 trot, purse $1,009, Lady Ulster won; beat —time 2 24}. The 2.20 pacing race, purse $1,000,

Frank Dorsh won; best time 2.16}. Oa the previous day in 226 class, purse $1,000,

Fred S Wilkes won; best time 2.207. The guaranteed stakes $2,5C), for tvuals of 1887, Olivia won; est time 2.24 The

guaranteed stakes, $2,500, for foals of 1888, Position won; best time 2.24}. The guar- anteed stakes, $5,00), for foals of 1889, Bermuda Boy won; bast time 2.29}. The 2.18 class, pursa $1,C ‘0, Miss Alice won; best time 2 17}.

The two world’s pacing records were broken at Ludependence, Ia., on Friday. Allerton trotted a mile in 2.10 flat, enhanc- ing his value $50,000 more. Direct, the little black pacing wonder, covered the mile in 2.08, breaking the world’s stallion records for both trotters and pacers. Dir- ect breaks the pacing records of the world. He travelled the fastest mile ever made with a sulky.

At Bangor, Me., on Friday the br f Mack F., owned by John McCoy, of St. John, N. B., won the 2.45 class, purse $200, in three straight heats, best time, 2.334. The gr s Speculation, owned by George Carvill, of St. John, won the 2.31 class, purse $300, in five heats; best time, 2.314.

[ Phe School Book Exchange.

LETTER FROM W. J. GAGE & Co. Toronto, Sept. 1, 1891.

Dear Sir,—We have received one or

two copies of pspers from Charlottetown, and notice that several complaints | | been made with reference to the exchange im school readers,

These complaints would appear to arise | from several causes.

First, delay on the part of some of the teachers receiving books ordered. This delay appears to be accounted for in some | cases, through parcels having been received | by our agent in Charlottetown, without | proper address, so that he was unable to 're-ship the books. L rgely,in other cases, lit is no doubt due to . -e fact that the neces- | sary supply of all the books was not to be jhad at the time the order was received in | Charlottetown.

As we have shipped down over 30,000 copies of the Canadian Readers to Charlotte- town, we supposed that this would be quite sufficient for the demand that might be made upon us. At the present moment it is fairto assume that there are not more than 20,000 children attending schvol throughout the Island.

The report of the Superintendent of Education shows that the total average attendance is about 12,600. It was, there- fore, quite impossible to foresee that such & demand would be made for the books. One and a half times as many books have been sent to Prince Edward Island as pupils in actual attendance at school.

The deficiency in our stock was no doubt brought about by some of the merchants having a large stock of the Royal Readers on hand—some having as many as & thou- sand of certain books. were presunted for exchange, our stoc'r was more quickly exhausted than we could have anticipated, aud it necessarily takes some time to have books forwarded from Toronte to Charlottetown.

Another cause for complaint app2ars to be in the matter of exchange. We naturally expected an entire book in fair condition, when a new book was given in exchange, and we think that any officer of a School Board would think this suttisieat. No doubt many of the books presented for exchange were in a very dilapidated con- dition, in view of the fact that it had been known for six months that a change of readers would take place. The old books were in this way retained for a longer period than they otherwise would have been.

most important one to us, and which may possibly be overlooked.

With a view of removing any p.ssible cause for complaint, we agreed to supply those pup is w! books, copies of istroducivr. prices,—these prices being, ia some cases, much less than the cost of the books. In our contract with the late Govern- ment we were under no obligation, whatever, either directly or indirectly to make these special rates; but when it was urged upon us by the Superintendent of Education, that all pupils who were promoted, and all who would attend school for the first time, or those who had no books for exchange, would require to buy new books, we consented to make special prices, thus saving these pupils from 30 per cent. to 40 per cent.

It would be reasonable to assume that nearly one half ef the pupile would require to purchase new books at the opening ot the school term, even it Royal Readers had con- tinued to be used, so that in this respect there has been quite a saving through these pupils being able to secure the books at sp-cial rates.

ln conclusion, may we express a hope that a little patience will be extemded and assist- rendered to us by those connected with the schoo's in carrying out the exchange ?

We sent out acircular asking that books for exehange be sent to the local merchants or to our agent in Charlottetown. Uufortun- ately the whole of the work has failen upon our representative, and thus necessitating his employing additional help, and a very great deal of additional expense,

We have requested our agent to do all within his power to remove every cause for complaint, and if any teacher or school official will report to us, we shall be glad to give the matter our immediate attention on receipt ot the information.

In closing our letter, it may not be un- interesting for parents and teachers to know that while the Canadian Readers have been already authorized and introduced into five Provinces of the Dominion, that this is to the first occasion on which we have offered books for exchange, or at special prices, to secure adoption. While therefore, Piiuce Edward Island has secured the books upon the most favorable terms, we trust that the result educationally will be all that could be desired.

Thanking you for the valuable space in your paper, we remain, yours faithfally,

W. J. Gace & Co.

Letter From Professor Shaw.

—

THE CLOVER ROOT BORER.

Sir,—I have received a letter from a farmer in the County of Oxford who asks information regardivg an insect which is preying upon hisclover. As this insect has not been at work very long in this country, it is well that the farmers be made acquanted with it, and with its modes of working. Although happily it is easily destroyed when we know the way of doing this, it may work serious injury to the clover crop where its habits are not under- stood.

_The writer of the letter referred to gives his observations in reference to the insect and its work in the following language :

** I noticed that cattle while pasturing on the second growth of a first crop of clover had pulled up a very large number of the plants by the roots. I set to work to ex- amine the plant and found the roots in a dry, diseased condition; and in opening up the root, I was surprised to tiud the ‘cause of the trondie to be insect life. I discoy-

red within the root numbers of little mag- gots in different stages of growth, and in two or three instances housed up as it were ,@ tiny little bug, which I presume lays the | eggs which produce. the maggot. I even weut to the trouble to cut out of the ground Clover roots that as yet looked fairly green )ard healthy, and was amazed to see them fairly alive with this insect pest.”

The insect thus described is undoubtedly th: Clover Root borer; and the way in which it injures the crop is we!l described

‘in the letter. Sometimes the roots are

eaten to so great on extent that much diffi- culty is found in mowing the second crop of the season. The enemy is European in its origin, and was brought to this count: y

several years ago. As early as 1878, it was giving trouble to the farmers of New York gate. Since that time it has extended its | ravages into the adjoining States, and to « | limited extent it has been operating during | recent years in this Province.

The Clover root borer when matured, is

asinall, hairy, brownish black beetle, a

the root. In # few days the eggs hatch and the larvae at once commence their hidden journey adown the principal roots of the plant. They feed upon the inner substance of the root, and fill the channels which they excavate with a saw-dust like excrement. The larva become full grown late in sum- mer, when they are about one-eighth of an inch long. The body is whitish, and the ‘head yellow. They then change to prpae within the roots of the clover, and emerge as adult beetles, usually in the early aut- umn. They generally hybernate ina cav- ity within the root of the plant.

From the life history of the insect, the mode of destroying it becomes apparent. As the beetle does not reach maturity until about the month of October, it is plain «hat if the clover is ploughed under in late summer, the plant must decay before the beetles reach maturity. Within the decay- ing house which thus becomes a tomb, the larva must die. The remedies sometimes recommended are, it seems to me, wide of the mark. For.instance, it is stated by some who have written upon the subject, that no better remedy is known than to plough the infested fields in the spring of the third year of the clover. This advice is of no use whatever, for the reason, first, that the common red clover of which the insect is most prone to prey is in most svils a birennial, and therefore when the third year comes there is but little or no clover to plough under; and second, al- though the inset does attack the crop dur-

In connection with this matter, we beg, leave to call attention to a fact which is a!

19 required to purchase new | he Canadian Readers, at:

'ing the season of the first cutting, as stated ‘in the letter quoted from above, its attacks are more destructive the next year. So ‘that, if the ploughing is not done till the following spring, a well fed crop of matur- ed inseers will be ready to march to an- other field to commence again the work of jdestruction. Besides, it is not spring : ploughing so much as early autumn plough- :lug that destroys the insects.

' Some authorities recommend pasturing after the first cutting until the close of the ,Season. This also will be no avail, for the | eggs are Jaid in the crown of the plant be- ‘fore the first cutting, and the larve are burrowed d ep enough to be out of harm’s way before the time of pasturing.

It is clearly apparent that the first cut- ting of the clover cannot be seriously af- _ fected, as the larva deposited by the beetles

are not far enough advanced by the time of the cutting of she hay to do any serious damage. If the clover is turned under be- fore the second crop matures the larva are destroyed. It follows, therefore, that there is not the slightest necessity for ‘abandoning the growing of clover tor a , term of years iu any locality in order to get |rid of the pest. Some have advised that | this should be done. Clover may be grown every year, but it must also be sown every | year, as we get only ene cutting so long a: the insect gives trouble. ‘he regular rota- tion may iu this way be disturbed, but it is disturbance that is not attended with serious consequences. Indeed, it may prove he!ptul in some localities, as it will tend not ouly to destroy weeds where these are abundant, but it will improve the land through the ploughing under of the second growth of the clover. It may alao render | it necessary to grow timothy by itself, but this may readily be done. It is, therefore, easily possible to keep this troublesome in- sect at bay. Tuomas Suaw. Ont. Agr. Col., Guelph, Sept. Ist, 1891.
