THE New ENGLAND CATTLE DIsEAsE.-The
cattle disease which created 50 much alarm
and anxiety in portions of Massachusetts, the
latter part OF last winter appears to have
entirely disappeared even in the infected dis,
tricts The Boston Trarcier says that when
the disease ceased its ravageS early in summer.
many predicted that it would reappear in An
gust and September, with the coming cold
nights and cold rains This was predicted
with the more confidence as that has been the
experience with the disease in Holland. But
August and September have come and gone,
and we are now in the last days Of October,
bat the fearful anxiety of the cattle raserS OF
the State, not one case Of the disease has
come to light-not one symptom has been dis
covered. The opinion begins to prevail either
that there was an unnecessary alarm upon the
subject or that by the thorough manner in which
the Commissioners acted, the disease has been
exterminated cut up. root and branch 1t is
yet to early to be fully assured upon this point
but certainly there is reason to hope that the
dreaded calamity has been avoided.

PREsERv ALTON OF SHINGLE Ro0Fs-Shn
giles, when ever they are exposed TO daMpnesS
from the interior of che building, or when
ever they do not dry rapidly after rains, as
under trees etc, become water soaked. decay
more or less, become overgrown with moss
which protects them from the drying lnhn
enceS of the sun and air, and the result is
they soon decay and go to pieces. This re-
suit occurs in barns, because the hay and
breath of cattle produee moist atmosphere
within, which rises to the roof and in what
ever way it happens way to prevent it is
most desirable.
KYANIzINo shingles before being put
on are soaked in a solution Of one pound blue
vitriol, or an equal amount of chloride of zinc,
(and in fact several other metallic salts will
answer in four or FIVE gallons Of water, moss
will not grow upon them, nor will they rot
How long they will last no body knows. hut
we can safely presume they will not last for
ever, though we have heard say they will.
Painting single roofs is of little or no use,
unless they are painted when they are put on,
and each course painted over aud the whole
upper surface this is very effective.
Lining roofs is recommended as nearly, or
quite equal to this and applicable to old roofs
Stacked lime should be sprinked on thickly
over the whole roof, on rainy days after the
roof is soaked. Sprinkle more at the ridge
than at the caves, but evenly over all A
writer in the Rural Intcl1gcaar gives bis eX
perience thus:
Put it on considerably thick, so as to
make the roof look white, and you never will
be troubled with moss and if the shingles
are covered ever so thick with moss, by put
ting the lime on twice. it will take all the moss
off, and leave the roof white aud clean, and
will look almost rs well as if it had been pain,
ted. 1t ought to be done once year. and, in
my opinion, the shingles will last almost twice
as long as they will to let the roof all grow
over to moss. tried it on the back side Of
my house. ten years ago, when the shingles
were all covered with moss, and they appeared
to be nearly rotten. gave the roof a heavy
coat of lime, and have followed it nearly every
year since then, and the roof is better now
than it was then and, to all appearance, if
follow this course, it will last ten or fifteen
years longer. The shingles have been on the
roof over thirty years There is no more risk
abont sparks catching on the roof than on n
newly shingcd roof Those that do not have
lime near by can use good strong wood ashes,
and these will answer a very good purpose to
the same eud. .'-HOmesteaG.

TEACHING PICS TO EAT SLOW "A correspon.
dent of the New-England Farmer says Pigs
should be early taught to eat slowly, for the
advantage of the pig, as well as of the owner.
Nothing is easier. Give the weaned pig, at
6 to weeks oId-in a clean trough half a
tea cup of dry shorts or bran, and after his
dry food is all eaten, give his drink, and in
crease the dry food according to the age and
appetite, till three months old then add one
half Indian meal for two months and then drs
Indian meal, till fattened sufficiently. This
plan has been followed for FIVE years with de,
cided success.

TREATMENT OF Muck N THE Stable AND
AFrERwARns-Of all methods Of using muck,
which we have tried we are best pleased
with it ASIAN article Of bedding for cattle
This, we think the best and most rapid way
Of manufacturing it into manure In add
tion to the liquid manure and a portion Of the
solid which it receives. it has the heat of the
animal while lying down, and this. with well
fed cattle is a large part Of the time. 1t has
all the qualities Of good bed, drynesS, soft
ness, CLEANLINESS, until it becomes saturated
with urine, when it IS time to throw it ont, and
put 10 a new charge. An allowance Of half
cord to the animal, viii become saturated in
about two weeks, if The staEi be occupied all
the while
4 correspondent asks if the mack should be
taken from the stable TO the compost heap, or
to the field, for p!owing in Either is safe
practice. We are governed entirely By cir
cumstances, in the disposition Of the muck after
it leaves the stable. In the Spring, during
the planting season, we fork it over, make it
as fine as possible, and pow it in. Nothing
is lost by this method. II not wanted for i'm
mediate use we remove it with the solid drop
pings of the cattle TO the compost heap, where
we mix it with two or three times its bulk of
muck or peat. 1t undergoes fermentation, and
becomes a more valuable manure, we have no
doubt, than that taken directly from the sta
bles The ammonia is more equally distributed
through the mass, there is more Of it, aud it
is in much finer condition But the labor
of handling is considerable. Which ever
course is pursued VIC always think money is
made about as fast as farmer can expect,
when he is handling muck We are confident
the man who follows it up ten years, will come
to the same conclusion.
