QUESTION AND ANSWER.
Occasionally even an editor is met by a query which he finds it either impossible or inconvenient to gain sufficient information to answer. A contemporary of ours sutlers frequently in litis way, but the editor, is a bad man to bent, and he generally manages to give a reply which, while it may not cover the whole ground. is practical and to the point. For instance, a correspondent wrote recent l\ : "I have a horse that has suffered lately from periodical fits of dizziness. Please answer me through your paper, and let me know what. 1 should do willi him. I'm afraid lie will gei worse if something is not done with him soon." The editor in question doesn't know any more about veterinary surgery than he knows about the Creek calends, but he replied—oh, yes, he replied—and this is what he said : "Our honest advice, Ittised upon a, very careful perusal of that capital book, 'Every Man His Own Horse Doctor,' would be to take him some time when he is not dizzy, and sell him to a stranger."
