How 10 Trent Bulky Horses.

If you have balky horses it is your
own fault, and not the horses, for if
they do not pull true there is some
cause for it, and if you remove the
cause, the effort will cease. When
your horse balks he is excited, and does
not know what you want him to do.
When he gets little excited, stop him
five or ten minutes; let him become
calm; 60 to the balky horse, pat him,
and speak gently to him; and as soon as
he is over his excitement he will, in nine
cases out of ten, pull at the word.
Whipping, and slashing and swearing
only make the matter worse. After you
have gentled him awhile, and his ex-
citement has cooled down, take him by
the bits; turn him each way few mo-
ments, as far Us you can; pull out the
tongue; gentle him little, unreign him;
then step before the balky horse and let
the other start first; then you can take
him anywhere you wish. A balky
horse is always high spirited, and starts
quick; half the pull is ont before the
other starts; by standing before him the
other starts first By close application
to this rule, you can make any balky
horse pull. If horse has been badly
spoiled, you should hitch him to the
empty wagon; pull it around awhile
on level ground; then put on little
load, and increase it gradually, caress-
ing as before, and in n short time you
can have q good work horse.-4merican

Seeding Wheat.

The advantages of drilling over broad
cast sowing for wheat, says the Prdcti-
cal Farmer, in the Middle States, has
been too long satisfactorily determined
to need any further comment. The
saving of seed, the regularity and even
ness Of depth ut which the grain is de-
posted, the security against the up
heavings of severe winters, the admis-
sion of freer circulation of air-all,
perhaps, have contributed to give drill
ing an advantage in harvest time of
several bushels per acre over the other
mode. Where wheat is to be drilled,
the narrowing and pulverization of the
soil of course precede instead of follow
the seeding; and we have to urge, not
only for the sake of the wheat, but for
the better starting of the grass, the i'm
portance of two plowings. Where land
is laid down to grass, as it isin this sec
tion, and to so remain for several years,
the repeated exposure of fresh surfaces
of soil to the fertilizing gases ofthe at
mosphere, the thorough mixing of soil
and subsoil, the complete pulverizing of
their particles so as to increase their
power of absorption, are all manWiGt
in their effects, and must be performed,
if at all, during the two years of the or
dinary rotation. The oftener and more
thoroughly they are done during this
period, the better for the subsequent
more permanent pastures. Top-dress-
ing then will keep up vigor and fertility.

Tobacco for scnb i'm sheep.

A correspondent of tho Prairie Farm
er makes the following statement of his
experience in treating the scab: "Hav-
ing. some three hundred sheep which
were troubled with scab, it was ques-
tion to which could find no answer, as
to how much tobacco it would be neces-
sary to use in order to cure them. At n
venture, procured two hundred pounds
at cost of twelve and half cents a
pound. / took the sheet iron bottom of
an old sugar evaporator and put in
from sixteen to eighteen pounds of to-
bacco, and filled it within two inches of
the top, and put the boiled tobacco into
a barrel with a hole near the bottom, to
drain off the solution after soaking, and
put water after soaking in the next
batch. l found that each batch would
dip from twenty-five to twenty-eight
sheep, if not wasted. My box Cor dip
ping was made of one and half inch
boards, sixteen inches wide, and four
feet long. The bottom was sunk inthe
ground. Then with matched flooring
made tight platform as wide as the
box was long, and put one end over the
box, the other being elevated so that
the juice would run back into the box
rs it was squeezed out of the wool.
Used the solution milk-warm. My
sheep are all we'll"

Cure for CoIic i'm Horse.

"Turfman,n in The american Stock
Journal, gives the following remedy:-A
great many valuable horses are annu-
ally killed by being drenched with va
rious medicines recommended by quacks.
Let ME tell your readers the best rem
edy for either fiatulent or spasmodic
collie that have ever seen tried. 1t is
to give copious injections ofwarm water
to move the bowels, and when that is
done your horse is safe. l have seen
many horses cured by this treatment,
and none killed. All so treated have
speedily recovered. If drenching will
be persisted in, take handful of ground
ginger and put it in o quart of water
and let it boil for fifteeu minutes, and
when it cools pour it down the throat
of the horse. This warns the stomach
and bowels, and is an excellent remedy
Let any person violently attacked with
collie, drink ginger tea, thus prepared
and he will find speedy relief. Ant
what is good for man insicknessis goot
for horse with the same sickness
Man is an animal, as we'll as a horse
and medicines good for the disease o
one are good for the disease of the other
the world over. gls -r..-

Hints on Cookery.

Prof. Blot, master of French cookery
is instructing the New Workers on the
art of good living. In a recent lecture
he is reported to have said:
"a fish boiled in water alone is not
inferior to one sewed in cloth and boil
ed. There is no better fish in the world
for frying than our American smelt.
The speaker said lobster was very untri-
tive, but heavy, and should never be
eaten at supper. Referring TO oysters,
he said that they should never be fried
in butter, and should be served hot.
Potatoes should be steamed, and not
boiled; and he cautioned his class against
using water that had been standing on
the stove, as the gases and alkali are all
absorbed in the first boil. Vegetables
boiled in such water are inferior. Dried
Lima beans are very bad for people liv-
ing in cities. Some ladies will not boil
cabbage because of the smell. This
could be avoided by simply putting
piece of charcoal in the pot. Lentils
are far better for eating than either
beans or peas. Many persons, however,
suppose them dearer than peas or beans,
not knowing that they swell three or
four times their size when soaked before
cooking. :,
He said that if more dandelous and
chiccory were eaten in the spring, there
would be less need ofmedicine, and in
stanccd a case of a family who spent
$50 month for medicine, and did not
see why they were sick. Referring to
the Professor said that there
was a substance in the center leaves of
each root, which, if eaten would help
their digestion.
Every family should be well supplied
with sorrel and tomatoes the year round.
These vegetables being the greatest
Of acrid substances. Water
crosses should never be eaten ever twice
in a week. They contain much sulphur,
and are the greatest anti-scorbutic
known.
The speaker then instructed his stu
dents in the art of making coffee, and
in conclusion, advised the use of gauze
instead of tin perforators."

Another Editor After Grant.

\ telegram from Washington to the
Commercial Of yesterday states that n
Southern editor, connected with the
Atlanta (Georgia) Era, has paid that
city recent visit with view of ascer-
tanning GRANTS exact political status.
1t seems that the editor had been advo-
eating GRANTS nomination as a Con-
servatiyc candidate, that he didn't like
tie no>itian assigned to ULYSSES by
Congressman WAsHBURNE in recent
speech, and that hc wished to satisfy
himself if the General was or was not
all his fancy painted him.
For this purposc he sought and OBJ
taincd an interview with GRANT, the
result of which he proposes to give to
the public. The dispatch says:
The editor proposes to publish that
Grant replied that he was not party
man: never had been of any political
party, and perhaps never should be;
that he voted for Buchanan for Presi-
dent, but had not done much voting
since, owing to his unsettled residence.
ihe editor says that the impression he
derived from the conversation was, that
General Grant would rather accept the
Conservative nomination for the Presi-
dency, but, at the same time, did not
pledge himself either way. The cOnver-
Satlon which took place will be pub
hShed at length"
The assertion "that GRANT would
rather accept the Conservative nomi-
nation for the Presidency has anything
but reliable appearance" At any rate
II Is not very probable that his prefer,
enccs will be at all consulted when that
Nomination is made.
