To Stop Washes and Fill Gullies

1t is quite astonishing to see
many farmers much injured by
washes which might be stopped by
very little trouble, if taken early
or if the right plan were pursued.
Corn stalks, brush, loose stones,
old log, or almost any kind of rub
Dish thrown into bitches made by
collections Of running water, will
have a salutary effect in prevent
ing further violence. and frequent
ly in stopping them entirely. Lc-
Gust trees planted in gullies will
soon take strong root and event
ually prevent further depredations,
In addition to the advantage of
putting an end to the wash in a
few years, the farmer will have a
delightful shade for lis stock and
valuable timber trees on his land.
We have known Herds Grass { Red
16p) sown in washes, and in q year
or two, the roots had taken such
strong holds as to prevent more
injury. After noticing these items,
each agriculturist will be better
able to judge Of the extent Of the
gullies and washes in his fields,
and apply the most suitable RENE
dy.

About Raising Young Calves.

A friend in the country writes:
"We had a very fine calf, and for
want of time to fit a proper place
for it, we let it run with the cow
till it was about two weeks old
We then put it by itself in the
early part Of the day, and at
night fed it new milk from the
cow. The next morning we did
the same, and, as it had been In
the habit of helping itself from
the COW wheni it liked, we thought
we would feed it at noon too
Accordingly we warmed about two
Quarts of SKINNED milk which it
ate very readily. AT night we
gave new and SKINNED milk mixed
about half and half. I should
think the calf drank about three
quarts. In the morning it seemed
rather stupid, but drank about 9
quart or three pints of SKINNED
milk. At noon it was very sick
and died before night.
To discover what allied it we had
the stomach examined, and found
in it lump of curd as hard as 9
new pressed cheese and as large
as goose egg, and very much the
shape of one, drawn out i'll length
about five inches. It must have
been the skinned milk that
caused the caf's death. We sup
pose we gave it too much, as Il
ate readily, with little trouble
They are generally SO hard to Learn
to eat, and get SO little into theil
stomachs at first, is perhaps, the
reason that such cases are not OF
tener heard of. The only Other
one of the kind / ever did hear OF
happened in our town this winter
but we did not know of it sooT
enough to save ours.

Glass and its Phenomena.

Inc elasticity anu tregilIty OF
glass are amongst its most extra
ordinary phenomena. Its elastici-
ty exceeds that of almost all 9TH
er bodies. If two glass balls are
made to strike each other at a Civ
en- force, the recoil, by virtue of
their elasticity, will be nearly
equal to the original Impetus
Connected with its brittleness are
some very singular facts. Take
a hollow sphere, with a hole, and
stop the hole with your finger, SO
as to prevent the external and in
ternal air from communicating,
and the sphere will fly to pieces by
the mere heat of the hand. Yes
sells made of glass that have been
suddenly cooled possess the curl
GUS property of being able to resist
hard blows given to them from
without, but will instantly shiver
by a small particle of flint dropped
into their cavities. The property
seems to depend upon the compar-
alive thickness of the bottom
The thicker the bottom is, the
more certainty of breakage by this
experiment. Some of these yes.
sells, it is stated, have resisted the
stroke Of a mallet, given with suf
fcient force to drive a nail int
wood; and heavy bodies, such as
musket balls, pieces of iron, bits Of
wood, jasper, bone, ETC., have been
cast into them, from a height of
two or three feet, without any eff
feet; yet fragment of flint, no
larger than pea, let fall from the
fingers at a height of only three
inches, has made them fly. Nor
| is it the least wonderful of these
phenomena that the glass does not
ALWAYS break at the instant of
collision, as might be supposed
A bit of flint, literally the size of
a grain, has been dropped into sew
eral glasses, successfully, and none
Of them broke; but being set apart
and watched, it was found that
they all few in less than three
quarters of an hour. This sin
igular agency is not confined to
flint. The same effect will be
produced by diamonds, sapphire,
porcelain, highly tempered steel,
pearls, and the marbles that boys
play with.
Among the strangest phenome-
ma observed in glass, are those
which are peculiar to tubes. A
glass tube placed in a horizontal
position before a fire, with the ex-
tremities supported, viii acquire
a rotary motion around its axis,
moving at the same time towards
the fire, notwithstanding that the
supporters on which it rests may
form an inclined plane the con-
trary way. If it be placed on a
glass plane, such as a piece of win
dow glass, it will move from the
fire, although the plane may in
cline in the opposite direction
If it be placed nearly upright
leaning to the right hand it will
move from east to west; if lean
ing the left hand, it will move
west to east; and if it be placed
perfectly upright it will not move
at all. The causes of these phe-
nomena are unknown, although
there has been no lack of hypo-
thesis in explanation OF them.

Military Misunderstanding
Strategy

On . certain occasion during Well.
ington's campaign on the Pyrenneese,
that /" Great Captain" being displeased
with the dispositions General Picton
had made for receiving the assault of
Marshal Soult, who menaced him in
front, ordered the plan to be entirely
changed. But the difficulty was 10
delay the attack of the French until
the change could be effected. This the
"Iron Duke" accomplished in person,
in the following manner. Doffing his
cooked hat and waving it in the air, he
rode furiously TO the head of a. regi-
ment, as if about to order a charge.
Thereupon arose a tremendous cheer
from the men, which was taken mp by
corps after corps, until it reverbrated
along the whole extent of Picton's line.
As the roar died away, Wellington was
heard to remark, musingly, as if ad-
dressing bimself-"So is a skilIfnl
but cautious commander, and will not
attack i'm force until he has ascertained
the meaning of these cheers. This will
give time for the sixth division to come
up and we shall beat him." 1t turned
out as he anticipated. Soult, naturally
enough, supposed those tremendous
shouts announced the arrival of large
reinforcements, and did not attack until
too late. Had he struck at the right
moment he would have won an easy
victory as it was, he met with bloody
repu'se. This was strategy. Not the
strategy of books, but the strategy of
genius, engendered and executed in the
same moment.
