The Interests of White Industry.

b Governor Bramiette, IN a speech at
Louisville the other day, advoca' ing
the anti slavery amendment to the
Constitution, made use of some
rather convincing statistics, showing
that the interests of the industrious and
laboring masses of white men in the
country are with free labor. The ag-
grepafe white population Of Kentucky
in 1860 was 9l9,5l7, men. women and
children. There were 2S5, ,4S3 slaves.
There we're only Sc lao slave owners,
Allowing that a. portion of the whites
not owning slaves had prospective in
terest, that is, that they were sons of
their fathers and would become inter
ested when the old man died or chose to
give them negro, in this property
aud estimating the total number Of
slave owners, present and prospective,
to be 10000, there still remain near
eight hundred thousand whites who bad
neither present nor prospective interest
in slavery. rs These non-slayeholding
whites are the working masses, The men
who constitute the strength, pride and
glory Of our country, ID the face Of
facts like these it is indeed passing
/ strange that, any Northern waite man
,recoenizing, or pretending 20 recognize
the. dignity of labor, should have been

eontemptible.- Chicago Republican,

CATTLE sTIcK-CHEwING.

Some years ago my cattle contracted
the habit of stick-chewing, licking and
lapping boards saturated with chamber
I've. around the doors and sides of the
barn. and after getting all the salts and
alkalies from the surface, trying the teeth
TO dig out what could not be reached by
the tongue. Thinking that their health
and constitution demanded what they so
pcrsistently sought after, | made 1T a
practice to give them one toddering a
week of straw or meadow hay saturated
moderately with either chamberlye or
soap-suds. They ate it with avidity, and
L soon found that it was having a saluta-
ny effect, not only in quoting their gnaw-
ing propensities, but in the general ap-
pearance and thrift of the animals. They
became more quiet and ruminating-lcss
inclined to rub and tear about. Probably
every farmer has noticed how greedily
cattle will devour straw that has been in
o bed, also how some cattle win chew old
rags, he'd quilts, &C. This is undoubted-
ly to satisfy the craving for the same
elements they obtain from soap-suds and
chamberlye. l would rather have my
stock, in winter, lack salt than soap or
its equivalent, and would say the same
about summer management if they are
kept in an old pasture without access to
sprout land or woods. At this season Of
the year, whether lousy or not, there is
no better practice, according to cost, than
to wash the entire bodies of neat stock
with soap.suds in the morning of some of
our sunny days. 1t washes out the dirt
and dandruf that makes cattle rub or
lick continually. Let those farmers who
have suffered from chilblains think of the
suffering of neat stock tied for days to-
gether where they eau neither lick rub
nor scratch, ~. II, Journal Of Ag,acul-

FRUIT TREEs.-Never prop up tree
loaded with fruit, to prevent the branches
from breaking down. Any branch or
tree which requires propping has more
fruit than it ought to carry, either for
the good of the tree or the good of the
fruit The first thirg to do is to remove
the smaller, poor or knotty specimens. If
this is done before growth has ceased
and sometimes after ripening has COM
menced, the improvement of the remain
ing portion will more than compensate
for the reduction in number. In those
regions where the peach bears only occa-
sionally, the owners often attempt to get
all they can, by allowing an over album
dant crop to remain. They will get as
many bushels by removing one-half OF
othirds and obtain an immense supe.
riority in flavor. Many cultivators have
observed that the last ripening peaches on
a tree, arc incomparably better than the
frst--mcrely because they are not crowd
cd. How much better they would be by
removing the crowding portion befor,
ripening If you wish to have good
healthy, uniformly growing trees, not des
troyed by premature age, do not let then
overbear.
