REMEDY FOR KICKING Cows.-Cows, says
contemporary, seldom kick without some good
reason for it. Teats are sometimes chapped
OF the udder tender; harsh handling hurts
them, and they kick. Sometimes long and
sharp finger nails cut their teats, and some
times the mixer pulls the long hairs on her
udder, while milking. Shear off the long
hairs, cut long finger nails close, battle chap
Fed teats with warm water, and grease them
Well with lard, and always treat a cow gent
ly. She will never kick unless something
hurts her, or she fears REPETITION of former
hurts w hen handled gently cows like to
be MIXED. When treated otherwise, they
will kick and hold up their milk.

and Indian meal they seem unable to digest.
1t is too stimulating and too heating for
them. The loss of so many of them is due
in a considerable degree to their being fed
with the other poultry, mainly on this article
of food This is the result of our experience,
and we should like to know if it has been
noticed by other breeders. 1t is a very i'm
portant question, and We hope the expert
ment will be tried by others SO that our
theory NAV be either confirmed or refuted.
The main food upon which we depend is
curd After it is formed in the sour milk it
is placed on the stove and heated until 1t
becomes dry and sweet. 1t can then be
crumbled in the hand like bread. OF course
there are other articles of diet which can be
used advantageously, but Indian meal in our
opinion cannot

MILK FEvERs.-Cows sometimes, when IN
high condition, get down with the milk fever.
when the calf is about three days old, which
very often proves fatal. Laudanum has
proved the best remedy in some very bad
cases, given up as lost. 1t is given in large
doses from two to three ounces. Some may
think this heavy dose, but we have given
the largest dose (threc ounces,) and some OF
our neighbors have tried the same. with a
very beneficial result. Oil is the worst
medicine, as it makes them dreadfully sick
The animal is mostly in great pain, for which
laudanum works wonders Soon as the cow
will eat give her turnips or apes. which
will open the bowels, and put her in right

When drinking cold water in hot weather
grasp the glass by the hand, take one swal-
low at time, remove the glass from the lips
for few seconds, then take another swallow :;
in this way it will be found that the thirst
will be thoroughly satiated before half the
water has been taken; whereas. if it had been
swallowed continuously, the whole contents
would not have satisfied the thirst.

PoIsoNIrG RArs.-I keep my premises
comparatively free from rats by giving them
poison at all seasons of the year. | never
place poison at all for rats in my house, in
.ummer, but give them plenty of it in N y
barn, whenever they appear. Keep their
haunts well supplied there. and there is no
necessity for using any at the house, for as |
well know, rats take free range during the
night, passing backwards and forth from
mouse to barn, and from one estate to those
adjoining or neighboring. If the poison adj
| lninistered is effective at all, the victim will
not get far from the spot where it was parta-
! KEN Thus can you exterminate rats, and
yet be free from the offensive results of hav-
| ing them dead in or about your house. The
| receipt is as follows;
| Mix one ounce of finely powdered arsenic
! and one ounce of lard with meal into stiff
dough; put it about the haunts of the rats.
They will eat it greedily. and it makes them
so thirsty that they viii die near the water,
which they drink.
They partakc readily of the poison, the
arsenic being sweetish and not at all often
| .ive, and thereby l have rid my place of them
repeatedly. place pieces the size of large
pea, on chips within their reach, being care
full to put it out of the way of the poultry

SHEEP-ln reference to an inquiry in the
PlOuy hman, by one of your numerous CORES
pondents respecting the disease of sheep,
have had over % year. experience in farm
ing, and particularly in the raising of sheep
should like to call the attention of those
who may appreciate the same.
LIST. The disease heretofore stated from
the oldest date to the PRESENT day, is called
Leashca 1t is caused by eating small herb,
partly red and white. 1t grows on moist,
DOGGY and unreclaimed land. 1t retains
water or moisture the warmest day in sum-
mer. and if the same is within the reach of
sheep they are sure to find it.
2od- ! hen, some time after eating, they
will be inwardly affected. The next stage
will be q gathering under the lower jaw no
matter how often it is lanced it will in most
cases fill up again.
3rd. By this time sheep lose their natural
redness of the skin to a washey white; also
the wool gets loose and thin.
Strange to say, if such sheep are changed
to better land they won't fat, but ultimately
die. The disease sometimes forms into
watery blisters between flesh and skin, and
in other cases great quantity on the brain,
which is sure death
Most judges of this disease can tell it by
lifting up the lid of the eye; most farmers
of Europe know well what it is l have en-
few sheep of the same kind at the Brighton
market. have bought the experience at a
dear rate, and still no cure for it-John
