RAISE THE CALVES. We have said it
before, and FAY it again, that the common
practice of selling our calves to the butch
er is one of the poorest pieces of farm hus-
bandry ever practiced. Not that every
small farmer who has the keeping, Or any
legitimate way Of getting it, should keep
his calves until they are two Or three
years old. We do not advocate the keep
ing Of any more stock than can be well
kept. Very many of our farmers by sell
ing their calves, have let their stock run
out so does their farm also. Now we
want such ones to turn over new leaf

The Bolton Grays.

Bolton Gray hens are of rather small
size, white neck and shoulder feathers. the
body handsomely speckled with black
which tips the tail. Flesh rather dark
legs blue; not so desirable fowl for the
table as some others, but very hardy, ano
seldom if ever surpassed as a layer. Thci1
eggs are of rather moderate, though nearly
medium size, and can be produced at abou
two-thirds the cost of those from some Of
the larger varieties of fowls; this is al
object so long as eggs sell by count, ant
not as they should, by weight The Boil
ton Grays are not inclined to sit; indeed
we find it necessary to keep other kinds

"Well, Bill Sykes had long, yGtter dog,
that was forever getting into the neighbors'
meat-houses and chicken coops. They had
tried to kill it a hundred times, but the dog
was always too smart for them. Finally one
of them got a bladder of a coon and filled it
ND with powder, tying the neck around a
piece of punk When he saw the dog COM
ing he fred this punk, split open hot biscuit
and put the bladder in, then buttered all
nicely and threw it out. The dog swallowed
it at gulp Pretty soon there was an ex-
plosion The head of the dog lit on the
porch, the fore.legs caught astraddle the
fence, the hind-legs fell in the ditch, and the
rest of the dog y around loose Pretty

Veteran C0rns.

Application has been made to the War De-
pertinent to have Wisconsin officers sent to
this State to recruit for the First or Veteran.
Corps, which is now being raised under Gen.
HAEcocK, and also to have recruits mustered
in and credited here instead of at Washing
ton.
The following letter from w. Y. SELLEcK,
State Agent, in regard to the payment of
bounties, is published for the information Of
local agents and others interested in obtain
ing credits.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 81.
HIS E1celle,,cy James 7. Le1ois, Governor Of
Wisconsin:
SRA few days since l received a COM
munication from Major General Hancock,
who is now raising and organizing the lst
Army Corps, requesting me to call upon him,
which l did yesterday.
The General made inquiry as to what boun-
ties were being paid by the State, or the va
riOus towns and sub-districts IN the State I;
also, whether an arrangement could be made
by which the State local bounties could be
paid here to veteran Wisconsin soldiers who
were enlisted here for the LIST Corps, and
credited TO the towns in Wisconsin TO which
they respectively belonged
think the suggestion good one. If il
can be carried out, no doubt a number of
veteran Wisconsin soldiers could be enlisted
here for that corps. l could have enlisted
two on Monday bad been able to have paid
them a local bounty from some section of the
State. Several Wisconsin officers have made
application to the War Department for COM
missions in the new Corps, and have reeeiv-
ed appointments.
Very respectfully,

The Freedmen,s Aid Fair

The Fair for the benefit of the needy and
suffering Freedmen, which was inaugurated
at Chicago Monday evening, Dec. 10th, with
lecture by THEODORE TILToN, and opened on
Tuesday, Dec. goth, closed on Saturday, the
oath. Considering the short notice given of
the Fair, and the weather during the time it
was in progress, and that a portion of the
community turn a cold shoulder to anything
done for the benefit of the colored race, the
Fair was a success. There was large
amount OF contributions of money and goods,
and the receipts for meals and entrance tick
cts averaged about $500 a day, but it is not
yet known what the net receipts will be.
Wisconsin was worthily represented with
the work of the fingers of her fair daughters
and other contributions, at a table under the
supervision of Mrs. LOVE, of Milwaukee.
At the close of the Fair sundry presenta-
tions of articles contributed to the Fair and
purchased by subscription were made, in.
