l ieinain your oLedient servant,

The courtesy which we have extended to
correspondents is SO rapidly increasing the
business of this department of our paper,
that we, like our friend Brownlow with his
large mirror and small house, will soon be
compelled to choose between the altcrna-
tives of reducing tho one or charging the
other. 1t is quit" evident that it is having
agood effect in softenng down those sharp
lines Of distinction, which in thi, commu.
nifty have hitherto kept those who differed
in opinion as widely separated as if they
we've deadly enemies. The fountain Of
knowledge which We have opened is
kind of Mecca, visited by all without dis
tinctionof politics, religion, age, race or
color.
But to the letter. Poor Jack Tar, how
our readers will smile at thy honest Sim
plicity, and the thoughtful care thou hast
displayed for the precious time of our pub
lie functionaries, in writing whole year
before your /" time is out" thnt they may
not be distressed to answer those weighty
matters which you have propcunded, in a
style partaking of the frankncss Of the
sailor and The ceremony of the diplomatist.
In reply to your general declaration of
intention of settling in the Territory, We
say that you will find an, abundance of
room, and plenty of homestead land in
either of the ncighborhoods mentioned in
your lettor. AS you and your friends con-
slider yourselves posted on tho difficulties
before you and the hardships you may
have TO endure we shall say nothing Of the
great forests that must be cleared away be-
fore you can get at the soil
We have made diligcnt inquiry con-
corning the price of horses. cows, oxen
and chickens All of the best horses are

WEIGHT OF CATTLE By MEASURE
MENT

E. j. E, Grafton, Iowa, asks for rule for
ascertaining the weight Of cattle, the calcua.
ton being based on the measurement Of the
animals. Many experiments have been made
by graziers and dealers in cattle to ascertain
the net weight Of cattle by measurements
Rules have been given and tables constructed
Of the results obtained. At best these are
but approximations, and the measurement Of
correctness will depend much upon practi-
cal acquaintance with the form and prominent
points of the animals to be measured. Some
thing will depend, cn the breed, size, mode Of
fattening, the time The process has been 60
ing on and the character of the feed supplied.
The following method comes as near cor
rect result as any known:
Measure carefully with tape line from the
top Of the shoulder TO where the tail is at
tached to the back this will give the length.
For the girth measure Immediately behind
the shoulder and forelegs. Multiply halt the
girth by itself in feet, and the product Will
give the net weight in stones of eight pounds
For example, with an OK or COW feet IN
length and feet in girtb, the calculation
will be as follows:
Multiply half the glrth by itselfin feet 3.5
3.5

TREATMENT or CALLED BAcK-Georee I

TREATMENT OF CALLED BACK-Georee II.
Dadd, veterinary surgeon, gives,i in the PIoi-
rie Farmer, the following
So soon as an abrasion is discovered on the
back of horse, the animal should be excus-
cd from duty few days the abraded parts
should be dressed twice daily with portion
of tinclure Of aloes and rnyrrh. This simple
treatment will soon heal the parts. Should
there be no abrasion, but simple swelling at
tended with heat, pain and tenderness, the
parts should be frequently sponged with cold
water. Occasionally the skin ondergoes the
process of har dening, (irritation.) This is a
condition Of the parts, known To the farriers
Of old as "stitfast," and the treatment is as
follows: Procure one ounce OF iodine, and
smear the indurdted spot with a portion Of
the same, twice daily.
Some cases OF CALLED back and shoulders
are duo to negligence and abuse yet many
animals, owing TO popularity of constitu
ton, will "chafe." as the saying is, in those
parts which come in contact with The collar
and saddle, and neither human foresight nor
mechanical means can prevent the same.

Coon HAMs.-After hams have been smok.
ed, take them down, thoroughly rub the flesh
part with molasses, then Immediately apply
ground or powdered pepper, by sprinkling ON
as much as will stick 10 the moIasses, when
they must be hung up again to dry. Hams
treated in This manner will keep perfectly
done before the fly deposits It's eggs, for after
that is done, nothing will stop their ravages
The above has been prscticed in our section
fer more than twenty years. No soaking is
Necessary. One pint of nolasses and one
and a half or two pounds OF black pepper are
Sufficient for any ordinary family. Try this
plan if you want good sweet haIns.-Rurdl

To KEEP POTATOES FROM RoTTING.-The
Germantown Telegraph is authority for the
following which may be worth something to
farmers whose potatoes already show signs
of rotting badly The surest protection
against rotting the potatoes, after being har.
vested, there is no question, We think is air
Stacked lime. Let the lime be sprinkled over
the bottom Of the bin before filling, and re-
peat The application at each foot Of potatoes
until the bin is filled up. The quantity is
what farmer would call good sprinkIing.
Potatoes should be excluded from the light,
and where convenient, covered with old car
pet. When buried out Of doors, o light dry
spot should be selected, which can be thor
oughly drained, and then pursue the same
with the lime as before. A vent must of
course be left as in the top for the escape Of
the confined air.

PRAcTIcAL HlNTs.-A coating Of three
parts lard aud one pint rosin, applied to farm
tools of iron or steel, will effectually preyeni
rust Common nails heated red hot and
dropped into cold water, will clinch and ans
wer the purpose of wrought nails. The sharp
corner Of common Indian arrow head, or
flint, will cut glass effectualIy. A wagon
jack may be made Of boards two or more feet
long Place the board in front Of the wheel,
one end on the ground, and the other just
under one OF the spokes, close up to the fel.
loe then take hold of the spoke on the op-
posite side of the wheel, and ifI it, and st
the same lime placing the second board un-
der the axle. Ia this way loaded wagon
may be lifted with ease Rusty nails may
be drawn from wood without difficulty, by
first giving them a blow hard enough to
start them a little. A gun will not need
