Raising Calves,

When fresh COWS sell from forty to six
ty dollars each, is it not time to consider
whether it will not be good policy to raise
some calves, especially if we have good
stock to raise from? Last season | rails
ed two, and this spring | heye already
started three more | consider early
spring the best time to start them, as
grass comes, when they will require but
little care until fall.
H01c I Start Them. A calf that | am
going to raise I necer let suck the COW it
is much easier to learn it to drink before
than after. / have had them drink alone
without the aid of the finger, before they
arc twelve hours old and after the sec
ond day have but little trouble with them
as they drink freely if they are in good
health beside the great advantage is
when they are turned with the cows, they
never trouble them, neither have | to put
straps around the nose with long nails in,
to prevent their sucking, as they hno'g
nothing abont Il.
What / Feed Them The first two
weeks | give them milk drrwn from the
mother OF the calf; after that the cud
comes, then | give them little cake
meal, bran and salt, mixed with water
about mi, k warm. 1t is better to scald
the meal aud let it soak twelve hours be,
fore feeding. Ifany is left, feed it tC
something else and make fresh for the
calves every time, as it will sour. Abou
this time they will eat little hay, clover
is best; as soon as there is grass enough
for them to got a bite, turn them out
and | soon slack off their feed.
A small enclosure, with water and shade
is the most suitable, where horses or cow
are not permitted to run.

Foot Rot in Sheen.

A correspondent of the Genesee
Farmer. WRITES to know how to cure
foot rot in sheep. John Johnston,
to whom we sent the inquiry, kindly
replies as follows:
"Foot rot in sheep can be thorough
ly cured by thorough pairing of all
the hoof from the diseased part, and
applying salye made of pulverized
blue vitrol mixed with lard, butter,
or any other grease. II not hot
weather, a little tar added to the
mixture is an improvement. Thsse
sheep that are diseased must be sep
arated from the sound at the first
dressing, but the sound must have
salve app led to their feet, else some
of them will become lame in a short
time. The diseased should be dress
ed ovor again in few days, say three
or four, every foot being closely ex-
amined. See that no par of the
hoof has been left covering the sore.
The sound ones should be dressed
over again in about a week from the
first dressing, or sooner if any are
seen lame. About three dressings
in that way will generally effect a
cure, if the pairing has been thorough.
1t requires thorough work to eradi-
cate that disease, but | know from
experience that it can be done in
the way l state. But if the land
i wet where they pasture, or land
that retains water on or near the
surface for days after it rains, it
is very difficult keep the sheep
sound in the feet, " 7
Mr.. Johnston has had some ex-
perience in this matter, and We are
glad to publish his method of curing
this disease. Those who do not
preserve the Farmer, should keeI

in the Geaesee Farmer Of April '65,
Mr.. John 7. Andrews of West Corn
wall, Ct, gave an account Of crop of
ruta bagas raised by him the previous
season, the yield of which, was, by actual
measurement, 4163 bushels on a quarter
of an acre, or 1866 bushels per acre
They were sown on June 10th on ridges
27 inches apart, and thiuned ont in the
rows ten inches to a foot apart. The land
has been very heavily manured, and in
addition to this, after the ridges were
made, compost of hen dropings, night
soil, ashes, plaster, &c, was scattered in
the ridges, which were then split with
the plow, turning the soil back again and
covering up the manure.
we mention the fact at this time, as
we see statement going the rounds o
the papers, that Mr., Andrews has .raisec
crop of 2102 bushels per acre We
had supposed his former crop was one o
the largest ever raised, but it would seen
that he has beaten himself.

CORN-SUCKERS.

f. c. Shaller, in the N. E.
Farmer, gives his testimony on the
subject of corn suckers, as follows :
81 have worked on several farms,
and some of them we cut the sucker
away at the second hoeing; on others
we did not cut them away at any time.
Where we left them the ears were
small, and where they were cut of
the ears were large and thrifty This
is brief and to the purpose, and agrees
with all that we know about the mat
ter. If the suckers are to share in
the strength and yigor of the plant,
the plant must be the sufferer. Thai
is common sense.

ARTIFICIAL COMB FOR BEES "A
Swiss invention has been introduced
into this country, to aid bees in the
formation of their comb. Narrow
sheets of wax are imprinted by ma
chinery, so as exactly to represent
the dividing wall Of comb between the
cells. These strips are attached to
the top of the empty hive, before the
new swarm is put in, thus enabling
the bees to go Immediately to work,
and also in guiding them in making
the sheets of comb il the proper di-
rection.

INTEMpERATE HAsTE.-lt might be
supposed, in view of the ordinary opera
tions of human nature, that those persons
who have opposed the Union Government,
all through the war, would have waited
awhile, after the close of the war, before
trying to take the Government under their
control. Sympathizers with the rebel
lion, while there was any hope for It, can,
not be, at the instant when that hope ex-
pires, the very safest and most reliable
counsellors on the process of reconstruc-
ton. And when their counsel is volun-
nary, it would be no discourtesy were it
respectfully declined. Those versatile
geniuses who have for years, been think
ing out all manner Of excuses and expe-
dients for the rebels, should make short
pause before offering themselves as the
thinking power of the Union Govern
ment' We always thought there was
great propriety in the just lady's advice
to disconsolate widower, eager to repair
the frac2uro of his heart swat, Barn
ey, wait dacint time" Itwovld net be
inappropriate to some of the politicians
of our new era.

CATERPILLARs ON APPLE TREEs.-The
common tent caterpillars were abundant
last year. and they have left their eggs
very neatly and skilfnlly glued upon the
branches OF apple trees. Sharp-eyed boys
or men may remove these clusters very
readily and throw them upon the ground.
small trees can becleaued with comparit-
lively little trouble, while the branches of
a large tree that fills a circle of some
thirty or more feet in diameter will re-
auire much more labor, and probably
some will escape the most careful search.
These must be removed after they be-
come Ucreeping things" which. they will
do as soon as the buds open. For many
years round brush attached to a pole
has been very generally used to remove
the nests of these insects. One great
trouble with these brushes was that the
bristles, especially after being wet with
dew or rain, were not stiff enough to hold
and wind up the web, Mr.. j. S.
Needham of Salem, Mass, has left
our Office specimens of q brush made
in the old form, but of iron wire, card
fashion, which we think must obviate
some of the objections urged against
the old fashioued ones. Mr.. Need
ham calls It the" Caterpillar Scourge.
For the purpose of eleaningit whet
.clogged with nests, each "Seourge'
is furnished with a little iron to3thet
hand brush. We do not know the
price, nor where they are to be ha(
except of the patentee.-N. b. Farm

FARM LABOR.

It was much feared month ago
that. owing to the magnitude ct our
armies and the thousands of persons
belonging to them who are non-com-
batants, the price of farm labor would
continue to be exorbitant as last year,
while the rates of produce show a
decided tendency to depreciate. This
fear, however, since it is shown that
the rebellion is come to an end, has
been dissipated, inasmuch as from
the speedy arrangements of the
Government to dispand a large pro-
portion of the army, probably three
fourths of the whole number, espe-
cially since the surrender of Kirby
Smith, which secures the pacification
of the whole of the trans Mississippi
territory, and of course including
Texas-will give agriculture all the
labor it needs at reasonable rates,
that is, in proportion to the reduction
in the price of produce. This fact
win enable the farmer to secure the
immense crops with which the earth
is rewadring his toll and skill, and to
offer it for sale when the market is
considered the most favorable.

HORSES AT PAsTURE-Every horse in
the country ought, if possible, to have at
least few weeks run in the pasture. 1t
will do for him what no kind Of medicine
or nursing can do as well. 1t will i'm
prove his hoofs, his hair and skin, his
wind. digestion, and blood, will take out
stiffness and lameness, and put on flesh,
and infuse new life generally.
Before turning horses out, it is well to
accustom them gradually to that kind of
food, by cuttinga little grass for them
each day, or allowing them to "bait, "
for an hour or so daily in the back yard.
Aud when let out, they should not have
Daush" feed at first, as they will be like
" to over-eat, and injure themselves
both in their looks and their wind. The
best grass for horse pasture is a mkt
ure Of Timothy, Blue grass, and Red top.
Horses relish this feed better when it is
moderately short. When they are to
be turned out for any length of time, and
not to be used much in the meanwhile,
they should have on only light pair Of
shoes. This will allow the hOofs to come
in close contact with the soft earth, and
will prevent contractions. Where horses
cannot enjoy pasturage, they should have
fresh cut grass as often as convenient
and should have their stall floor covered
with tan bark, or better, have the piank'
taken up and clay floors laid. American
