crops, but as a means of stimulating the growth 
of the young plants, and in the opinion of some, 
materially keeping off mildew. For winter feed¬ 
ing the swede is apparently unequaled for all 
kinds of stock, but as a milk producer it is not, 
perhaps, equal to the common turnip, which for 
lambing yards, when Iambs are required for early 
spring, is invaluable ; but its high percentage of 
water detracts from its fattening properties.

There Is no obstruction wlmtpv. r to the draft, yet 
the reluming of the flnmi's through the sruall tubes 
compels the deposit of the great body of sparks in 
the chamber rear of the holler. 
It Is the best and safest Steaming Holler in use. 
and we invito competition with any first-class maker. 
It will make more steam lroiu less fuel than uny hor¬

Those who nfimiro a gix>d horse will appreciate 
the following description and account of the ex¬ 
ploits of Goldsmith Maid, who, for five years 
past, lias been a constant surprise to the public : 
When at Milwaukee, in 1871, she first lowered 
the record below the magic 2:17 V. that had for 
go many years been held by Dexter as the ad¬ 
vanced post of trotting honors, it created a sen¬ 
sation unprecedented in the annals of the trotting 
turf. But she was then in her fifteenth year, 
and those who wore wise in horse loro shook 
their heads, and dolefully said, “ The old mare 
is past her prime; she can never make another 
snch campaign or trot so fast a heat as she has 
done.” Bat the wise ones were mistaken, for 
the next year she was better than ever, trotted 
more races than in the previous year, and low¬ 
ered her record to 2:16%. 
And bo she has gone on from year to year 
Bince that time, each season seeming but to add 
to her speed and endurance. In 187G, the 
twentieth year of her life, and her thirteenth 
annual campaign upon tho turf, she was a 
greater trotter than ovor boforo, and awakened 
anew the enthusiasm of her admirers by trotting 
one heat in 2:14, and winning the fastest third 
heat ever trotted, 2:15; tbe fastest sixth heat 
2:19%; the fastest two consecutive heats, 2:15%, 
2:15; the fastest three consecutive heats, 2:16, 
2:15% and 2:15; and tho fastest six-heat race 
ever trotted. 
When and whero this great mare will begin to 
fail, aro questions that no turfman will now 
venture to answer. Although on the shady side 
of twenty, she trotted, a few w’coks ago, at Ban 
Fraucisco, a race of throe heats in 2:22%, 2; 16%, 
2:18%, the second heat being the fastest she has 
ever trotted in that State, which would indicate 
that she is still in the possession of all her great 
gift of speed.
