It TO their interest, to put 4 half busheI Of

Clover and Timothy will furnish pretty
cook grazing the first year; the second, al

S~o1L1NG" CATTLE,-Thc practice d
keeping c~attlesin the house or yard, in sum.
mer and winter, aid feeding thcmon green
food as much rs possible, is dcnominated
soiling; though it is but little known in the
United States, and particularly in the south
west. Most farmers prefer their ca tile run,
ming at large on "the commons" or on the
grass lots, glover fields, or cultivated
grounds, and this plan has at least some
advantages. There is certainly less labor
to be performed, but by sOiling, the follow,
ing advantages seem to present them
selves; /. The cattle do not have to roam
so widely, and labor so hard for food, and
consequently less food will answer. 2
They tread down no grass in this way, and
less than half the amount Of land will surn.
ish food, and thereby enable the farmer to
keep more than double the quantity oI
beasts. 3. The cows will give more and
richer mile and 4thly, The great amount
of manure saved, will more than repay
for the extra labor. Who has tried soil
ing? We desire reports.

CURE FOR BoTs AMI. HURRAIN.-A
writer in the American Farmer, who signs
himself J. w. j., gives a number of in
stances in which he has been successful in
curing the bots in horses by the use oflime
and in preventing the attacks ofmurrain by
the same remedy. Having a few years
since purchased a very ~iheshorse, he soon
found he was Diseased, and in spite of the
various remedies administered, grew worse.
Finding he discharged some bots, he sus-
pectcd the difficulty might be found in them
and commenced giving him a table SPOON
fl of Stacked lime three times a week, in
bread mashes. Pursuing this course two
weeks, the bots began to pass Of. in large
quantities; his appetite began to improve.
and m six weeks he became well and sleek.
Since this, he has continued the use oflime
among his horses with the best effect, and
though he had lost many before, he has lost
none since from any cause. Spirits of tur-
~pentine he found produced no effect on the
live voidcd bot, while if put into lime, they
were perfectly dead in forty-eight hours.
Mixed with salt, and fed to cattle two or
three times a week, or rather by allowing
them always to have access to troughs
containing the mixture, he deems IiIne, and
we think with very good reason, an cffec-
tual preventive of murrain. Since he COM
.mencedits use, he has not lost an animal
fom this disease, though solns Of his neigh.

TIE LAWYER CAUGHT An opuIant
farmer applied about a lawsuit to on attor-
ncy, who told him he could not undertake
it, being already engaged on the other side;
at the same time he said that he would
give him a letter of recommendation TO Il
professional friend, which he did. The
| farmer, out Of curiosity, opened it and read
as follows -:
4Iere are two fat weathers fallen out t~ogehthcri
If you'll fleece one, I'll fleece the otheI,
And make'em agree like brother and brother"
The farmer carried this epistle to the
person with whom be was al variance. Its
p~eru5al cured both parties, and terminated
the dispute.
Baton-Rouge gazette. [volume] (Baton-Rouge, La.) 1819-1856, 1847-02-20

bors who neglected this pr~ycaution, have
lost nearly all their cattle by it. In one
instance, a farmer living near him lost
nearly all his stock by this disease, while
the animals d a noighbor living within
200 yards, and which ran daily with those
that died, all escaped. The owner ofthose
that escaped made it his rule to fling them
n handful of salt and lime every morning.
At the west, where the murrain p very
prevalent and fatal, lime and salt arc be-
coming to be considered Il specific, so far
as prevention il concerned; and when it is
recollected that the disease once developed
is rarely cured, it would seem advisable to
adopt the use Of this mixture wherever
danger is to be apprehended.-Cuh.
