Summer Care of Cows.

Cows REQUIRE shade in summer, and if
at liberty will travel great distance to
obtain it.. 1t is reasonable to suppose that
they are the best judges of their wants,
and if deprived of this comfort and com
PEELED to stand or lie all day without any
screen from the hot sun, decline of flesh,
loss of vital energy, and a marked de
crease in the flow Of milk must follow.
The grazing times for cattle in hot wealth
er are at night fall, and early in the morn
ing when the grass is fresh with dew !;
and they should by no means be confined
in the yard during the night time, and re-
tanned there no longer than is necessary
at milking time. A good supply of fresh
pure water is as essential as plenty of feed
to keep up the yield of milk, and very
great error is entertained by some who
suppose that if cows get their fill once a
day it Is all they require. If a farmer is
compelled to water his stock ct the well
in dry time, large trough should be
furnished, and kept filed SO that they can
drink when they choose. The water is
all the better for standing short time ex-
posed to the atmosphere. Farmers some
times get the idea that cattle do not want
water but once day, for the reason that
they will come to the well only that often
get it. When drink first fails them in

the pasture, cattle will visit the well two
or three times day for a short time, but
soon learn that water is furnished only at
certain times, and then they remain away,
however thirsty they may become, until
the hour arrives which has been set as a
time, to supply them. ;.,,..
A great deal of trouble is experienced
some seasons by the cow-pox getting into
the dairy. This pustule eruption usually
first appears upon one COW, and many
times may be kept from going any further
by the exercise of care. The best way to
prevent its spread is to always milk the
cow having it last. This disorder is con-
tagious and can easily be conveyed upon
the hands of the mixer from one cow to
another. .,A ~ -
Cow.pox first appears in small yellow
punches upon the teats, which contain
purulent matter and afterwards break out
into discharging ulcers, becoming very
troublesome and hard to heal. The teats
should be washed clean with warm cas-
tile-soap suds and dressed with some heal
ing salve, oil or ointment. Jennings rec

The PreservatIve Power Of Ferns.

For many years, in England, ferns have
been employed as means of preserving
fruit which is to be transported to any
distance Their use tends to prevent
mould and decay. They are also much
used in packing fish to send from the
coast to London; also to line the hampers
which contain fresh vegetables for the
city markets.
In this country there is, comparatively
speaking, but little use made of them.
Our fields and hillsides are covered with
their bright green plumes; and in the
economy of nature, there surely must be
found some gap for them to fill. We be-
lieve that there is no plant growing on
the earth which has not its utility.
There can be little doubt but what
ferns contain some peculiar preservatiVe
power. Both the bracken and the male
fern abound in alkaline matter which was
formerly used by soap and glass manutac-
turers in England; ard their astringent
properties are well known TO the dressers OF
leather.
The aroma of this genus of plants is re-
pugnant to most insects, and iDimieal to
the growth of that species of fungi known
as mould hence, the leaves could not but
be of use in packing those fruits liable to
its attack.
They might be made available by our
peach, growers in sending their fruit to
market. If the baskets were lined with
the leaves, and they were laid between
the fruit, we think it would arrive at its
destination in good order, and there would
be no complaints about its decay.
The peculiar odor thrown off by ferns
is familiar to all who have gathered and
pressed their fronds. 1t is slightly aro-
matte, and very agreeable. Is it due to
an essential oil contained therein? All of
US who dabble in paste know well that a
few drops of essential oil of any kind will
prevent, to great extent, the growth of
fungi upon its surface. Would not fern
leaves boiled with it prove equally pre-
servative? I4 E
The root of the male fern LdstTea ttliG
naas), when administered in the form of a
powder, is prompt snthelmintic, and, it
is said, will destroy even the tape-worm.
In some parts of Germany and Den
mark, beech-leaves are used to stuff mat
tresses, because fleas and bugs cannot ex-
ist among them. Would not the dried

If they would prove deadly to bugs and
moths, they would certainly create new
era in bedding and furniture, and might
prove valuable to the furrier.
The young fronds of the male fern, when
cooked and served on toast, like aspara-
gus, are said to greatly resemble thatVeege-

preserve delicate shrubs and roses, as well
as the hemlock- branches, which are so
extensively used for that purpose. III.
In Somerset County, England, they are
in great request for covering potato br-

resist all mould and dampness. We hope
our readers in the coming season will test
their preservative power, and secure this
valuable remedy against the pests of mil

The Obi MON of Butler In New Orleans,

";RussELI." writes to the Boston IrdU-
ellerr that when in New -Orle LES recently
beiwent to the canals and drains which
General Butler ordered dug when he kept
the presidential yellow fever out of the
city. He says: >''e
We found them partially filled with
filthy mud, while on the top OF the black
water was>a thick scum OF yellew-blu
color. The stencil from them is nearly
suffocating; we made haste to get on the
windware side, to avoid a retreat toward
the city. The city is on a marsh that is
lower than the river, and stagnant water
would stand here at any time of the year,
making it sickly if there were no other
aggraYating causes. But when the offal
and filth Of the city is carelessiy thrown
into these fever breeding sloughs and left
to decompose, the effect is terrible. One
OF the most rabid rebels we have met In
the South went with as to visit the sub
urbs, and although he said all the bad
things and told all the lies he could get
into the hour we were with him, about
General Butler, he expressed his idea Of
the incompetency of the city government
in very strong terms,
-ssl heartily wish he were back here,p
said he, " to pull these city officials over
the coals. Why, the only healthy year
this city, ever saw was when he was here
to make these lazy fellows toe the mark.
AS much as I hate him l wish he were
back, and would vote for him in a minute"
~ hardly think he would run wellfor

Yes he would, though" said he. "The
people would all vote for him just to spite
the present incpmpetents." z cTrT -fy9 z

to the st. Charles Hotel, we had some
conversation with another hater of Butler,

Of the -Legislature in licensing gambling

In a recent extemporaneous address
delivered by Mayor Hall before class of
business college graduates, the following
passage occurs:

language than "plod.' If you would real

Worse things than that have been said
in the pulpit; and we do not doubt that
this little lay sermon will be productive of

ritual pomp and ceremony. The world
has recently gone into raptures over the
completion of the Pacific Railroad, which
is aptly termed the greatest achievement
of the century. How much would genius

Fortune and fame which come without

M; The Internal Revenue.

THE new administration is redeeminc
its promises of retrenchment in expendi-
ture and of reform in the collection of the
revenue. The doubt which existed in the
minds of many, whether the corruption
OF the internal revenue system, especially,
had not proceeded too far to allow of any
other. remedy than excision, must give
way to the demonstrations of figures.
The prompt and rapid increase of receipts
from all sources is a guarantee that the
last two years are to remain a miserable
and shameful fact by themselves 4 ETA /.
1t is well that it should be so. Another
such two years might have sunk the vice
of official corruption too deeply into the
constitution of the public body for any
peaceful remedy. There has, indeed,
been reason to fear that the country was
approaching the condition where legal
penalties and executive vigilance are
helpless to prevent fraud and peculation,
and that the President of the United
States might become as impotent as
formerly was the Gar of all the Russias
to-bring the proceeds of a tax into the
Treasury, secure the honest performance
'of a contract to svictual a ship-of-war, or
devise bonds and conditions effectual for
the execution of any, public trust. We
seemed in the way to illustrat tie the melan.
choly, lesson of Rome in, her last days,
and of Russia in the Crimean war-that
nothing is so helpless as corrupt strength.
