The Valley Farmer.


The December number of this Jotrnal

aware. it is entirely devoted to the ad-
vanncement of progressive agriculture in
the West. Formerly Agricultural Jourhsls
were considered unnecessary, but In this
progressive age, when the march of I'M
provement is so rapid in everything, and
especially in the culture Of the soil and
crops; in improved breeds Of stock, and the
best and most economical plan of feeding
the same; in the introduction and proper
culture of fruits, &c., an Agricultural pa
per becomes want of the first necessity.
and the farmer who does bot take one is
unmindful Of his most important interest.

costs but One Dollar, he may receive hints

Message of the Governor of Louisiana.

Baron RoUGE, Dec. 1O.-The Governor
in his Message 10 the extra session Of the
Louisiana, exhorts cslmness and delibsra-
tiop. He says that the election of Lincoln
shows that the Northern mind is poisoned
against the South that the wise counsels
OF our fathers are forgotten, and the fraiern<
al remonstrances OF the South are disfegers
ded. He recommends convention and says
Louisiana ought not 10 refuse 10 meet her
sister slaveholding States in council, to de-
mand of The North the repeal OF obnoxious
legislation, end guarantee against future
similar messures-ssys that these questions
should be met before tho Inauguration OF
Lincoln, because the self-respect and
honor Of the State does not comport with
her remaining under Black Republican
President.
A resolution of the Legislature recon-
mends the erection Of Military Board, and
asks an appropriation of half million dol
lars for the purchase Of arms for volunteer
companies. Members are not disposed to
aci hastily but favor preparation Tor any
emergency.

of the people, and its tendency 10 reduce taxa

OF crime than the legislation Of our wisest States

class, and in every station Of life, the means TO
avoid much future misery TO their families, and TO
render them independent of public OIL private
charity.
While if is the manifest and imperative duty OF
every parent, curing his lifeline, to embrace all
honorable means of supporting and advancing the
interest of his offspring, il is equally his duty
10 avoid leaving them at his death to grope their
way in helpless poverty through an uncharitabie
world; and equally apparent is the duty OF every
husband to provide, in case of his death, for the
surviving widow. To effect all which Life lnsu-
rance Companies have been formed, which enable
every husband and parent, by the payment OF
small sum, either nnualy or quarterly, TO pro-
vide for his widow and fatherless children.

Development OF the Teeth OF Cattle,
and Mode OF AScertaining their
age by the same.

0oO ~ NAO GCAMO0
The following useful information we
copy from that excellent periodical, the
.fmsrican Stock Journal:
persons acquainted with the dentition
Of meat stock can form a pretty accurate
idea Of age, from The period ofbirth up 10
that of adult life; and this method Of as
pertaining the age of an animal, is, prob
ably, more correct than that which applies
to horns, for by means Of a rasp applied
70 the rings Of the horns, any amount Of
imposition may be praciced, when it is
well known that the same liberties are
not to be taken with the teeth, without
the chance Of discovery. 1t is possible
that some slight variations from the fol-
lowing rules, in the developments Of the
teeth, yet such variations viii not embrace
q period of more than a month or six
weeks, which at maturity does not amount
to much, and may be considered as purely
aecIdental--out Of the ordinary course of
nature. The front teeth or temporary
incisors are found in the lower Jaw; there
are eight of them, all prominent at the
age of four weeks. Thescalf is. usually
born with three temporary grinders or
molars; the fourth appears six months af-
ter birth; the fifth appears at the age of
fifteen months; and the sixth isto be seen
at the age of two and a half years; now
the animal has a full mouth Of temporal
ry teeth. numbering thirty-two. Atthis
period a very remarkable change is about
to occur; the temporary ones having an
swered the purposes for which they were
intended, are TO be removed in the follow
ing order, 50 as to give place TO others
which shall correspond to the increase in
the size of the jaw bones, and prove as
durable as other bones in the body. AT
the age Of two years the central or mid
die incisors Clover Jaw are shed and re-
placed by two permanent ones. At the
age of three years the two .incisors known
as the inner middle, undergo the same
process. At the age of four the outer
middle are shed, and replaced by perma-
nent teeth. AT the age of FIVE, the corner
incisors are also transformed in the same
manner, and the animal has a full set
(eighl) Of permanent front teeth. The
first and second permanent molars known
as grinders, appear in the upper and low
er Jaws on each side, at the age Of two
years, and at intervals of n year, the
other four are successfully cut; SO that at
the age of six years the animal has a full
month Of permanent grinders.

The Cattle Disease.

When the cattle disease that had pre-
vailed in The vicinity of B%rookfeld, and
IN other places, suddenly disappeared in
the early part Of the summer, those
whose faith in the fearful character of
the disorder was fully confirmed, asserted
that it would reappear more extensively
in August and September. with the COM
ing of 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 gene, and we
are now in the last days of October, but
with all the fearful anxiety of the cattle
raisers of the State, not n case OF the
disease has come to light--not n symp-
tom has been discovered. The opinion
begins to prevail either hat 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 too early to be fully
assured upon this point, but certainly
;here is reason to hope that the dreaded
calamity has been avoided.-BOston Ira
