We Want to Know, You Know— Continued. 
though her nostrils. She Is with foal, but was affecte<l 
before. What alls her and what Is the remedy ? 
J. w. K. 
Axs.—The mare may be broken winded or may 
have the heaves. Or this may be a case of chronic 
roaring due, usually, to paralysis or wasting of some 
of the muscles of the larynx or windpipe. This Is also 
sometimes caused by tumors or other obstructions In 
the throat or air passages. In most cases, only a 
skilled veterinarian should undertake treatment. If 
the trouble be heaves, careful and modern feeding 
on laxative feeds, avoiding all dusty hay and fodder, 
moderate work and ffood care will afford relief. In 
no case should such an animal be used a a breeder. 
Fur Deai.ek.s.—W hat linn In New York deals In 
raw furs ? L r. s. 
An.s.—B elt, Butler & Co., 173 to 175 Duane Street. 
Seeds from Poor Sqashes -In 1892 I grew a line 
lot of Bay State squashes and saved some seeds. 
Those seeds gave ns our best stand last season, but 
will not be pure as other sorts grew In the same Held, 
and bees were plentiful. The quality Is very poor 
and watery. Would I be justlfled in using the seeds 
this year? e. l. s. 
Axs.—Certainly not for sale, nor for your own use 
If you wish to grow squashes true to name. It Is poor 
policy to save seeds from Inferior specimens any¬ 
way. 
Currants.—I have a side hill of a gravelly loam, 
naturally drained, sloping to the West with a dip to 
the North 1. Would this be good for currants? 2. 
What kind are best lor market? 3. Where can the 
bushes be obtaDed? 4 . Do not late currants usually 
pay better than medium early? o. m. h, 
ANS.—1. Yes, almost any good corn land Is favor¬ 
able for currants. 2. Fays and Cherry are as good 
as any, though a trial of two or three other varieties 
would be advisable. 3. Of any of the nurserymen 
advertising In The It. N.-V 4. Not always. The 
price depends largely upon the supply of these and 
other fruits. Cast season the price was lower late In 
the season. 
Sweet Corn for Market.— 1. what is the best 
variety of sweet corn for the New York market? 2. 
Who are reliable commission men for Us sale? 
Castleton, N. Y. L. .M. 8. 
Ans—I. Any variety with large ears, like Kver- 
gre^n, -Mammoth Sugar, or similar varieties. Sweet 
corn usually sells best here quite late In the season? 
2. Any of those advertising In The K. N.-Y., we con¬ 
sider reliable.

FEEDING ANIMALS, 
By Prof. E W. Stewart, is acknowl¬ 
edged to be the most authentic work on 
the science of feeding live stock that 
has ever been written. Thousands of 
farmers feed their stock at a loss be¬ 
cause, by not understanding the compo¬ 
sitions of different stock foods, they feed 
too much of protein or fat. “Feeding 
Animals” will tell such farmers just 
what they need to know. The retail 
price of the book is $2. We sell it at 
that price, or will send it with a year’s 
subscription to The R N.-Y. for .$2 75. 
OUR FARMING, 
BY T, B. TERRY. 
On another page we give our opinion 
of this book. It is one that every Amer¬ 
ican farmer can read with profit. Price,

THE PRINCE OF INDIA. 
This remarkable volume by Oen. Lew 
Wallace, author of Ren 11 ur, is having a 
wonderful sale. Edition after edition is 
eagerly taken by those who have re¬ 
ceived help and inspiration from “ lien 
Hur.” General Wallace enjoys the 
unique distinction of having written two 
(/rcaf books in succession, for “The Prince 
of India” is in every way as powerful as 
“ Ren Ilur.” It is in two volumes— 
price .S2.50; but by special arrangements 
with the publishers we are able to offer 
it with The R. N.-Y, one year for $.3.
