There are a few important facts in rse feeding that every horse owner ght to know and that are frequently glected, much to the injury of the imal. A horse should never be fed ain after heavv work until he has ited half aa hour. Hay will do no rm at auy time. Never water a rse just after eating. To drink freeat this time will wash a large por?n of the food from the stomach to e intestines, dilute the gastric acid d irritate the bowels. Always iter before feeding grain. Never rmit a fatigue horse to drink freely cold water. A warm mash will do > harm at any time, or wet hay and irter may be fed and afterward a full ink may be given. Never let a irse suffer from thirst when it can be oided, nor food either; but the first more injurious. A horse employed regular work should have a full ?d at night, with hay to nibble at ill, a light feed in the morning and a an mash with hay at noontime. A >rse should never be required to do tavy work with his stomach full of ain or entirely empty. Study your >rse and feed according to his indiduality. A greedy horse should be strained. Others may be given all ?v will eat. "Each horse shnnlri h? i separately. Men, women and ctailen should make their meal social casions, but they are uot horses. God is better served in resisting a mptation to evil than in mauy fbral prayers. "A good name is rather to be chosen an great riches, and loving favor ther than silver and gold." Paul made intercessory prayer a part his daily work. Young preachers iould copy him in this respect. A man of integrity runs with truth, id uot with the times?with right id not with might.
