We will answer, in the first place,
No, not in the sense as understood by
some. The idea that COW is liable
to drop her cud or to lose it any way,
and that another cannot be raised until
the animal is supplied with an artificial
one, as it is believed by some ignorant
pretenders, is all nonsense. Loss CT
cud is nothing more or less than loss
Of appetite, derangea digestion, and is
rather a symptom Of disease, than dis
ease itself. This may occur from va
riops causes. When it occurs with the
aniQol in general good health, it is
frcl lily from over eating. 1t also
accompanies most inaammatory COM
plants, just as the appetite is affected
in the human subject from similar
causes but in our country, it is more
generally the result Of extreme 6ebili-
ty, caused by want Of proper shelter
and supply Of wholesome food. Until
farmers will be convinced that it is as
essential to the health Of their cattle
that they should be warmly sheltered
and bountifully fed, as it is, even, to
themselves and families - loss of cud
and all its attendant infrmitics will be
common in their fields and stock yards.
Almost any disease will affect, more
or less, the appetite, and hence affect
the process Of digestion. The process
Of rumination in certain kinds of ami
mails is nothing more or less than the
more thorough mastication Of the food,
and when disease occurs, or general |
debility takes place from exposure
Or neglect, the appetite is impaired, and
hence digestion, or the chewing Of the
;ud, is in like degree suspended.
Warm shelter and a generous supply
# nutritious food, we will suggest as
N important preventive, and one that
viii prove, withal, remunerative,
When from any accidental cause the
ppetite of Illuminating animal is af-
ccted, and there is suspension of the ;

A Row IN South MUsoATINE. - Friday
afternoon, Marshal Purcell undertook to ar
rest a man, in South Muscatine, who was
evidently laboring under the influence of
''red-eye,' and INDUCED q little too freely in
the use of profane and obscene language
A fellow named Ira Hall interfered. The
officer, Eos being able to take them both,
very wisely concluded to secure the latter,
which, after severe tusslc, lie succeeded
in doing, and hustled him into q butcher
cart. On his way to the Mayors Office Hall
grew very indignant over his treatment, and
swore he would make the Marshal smart for
putting him in a "cussed, nasty dung-cart,"
and insisted that he provide carriage. The
Mayor did not appreciate his injuries, how
ever, and he went off with five dollars worth
of advice from that functiorary.

A NARROW ESCAPE. - Last Saturday, the
ice running against the ferry boat Decalion,
which was moored to the railroad track near
by, pushed her out into the river some dis
lance, thereby displacing the track by sew
eral inches. At the same time, the Eastern
train rounded the curve, but few rods dis
tant, at good speed. People standing neal
by, however, succeeded in attracting the
attention of the engineer, who stopped his
train, thus saving it from being upset into
the river After considerable difficulty the
track was replaced, and the cars proceeded
in safety.
