WHIPPING OxEN.-It is cruel and generally
q useless aet of barbarism to whip oxen, yet
many farmers are in the habit OF continually
keenins the whip going. Instead otlovlting
tho animals to exertion by proper words. the
first n,imation the poor creatures have from
their master that he desires them to start, IS
cut of the whip or a prick from the eoad'
This is not only savage. but absolutely wicRea'
aud wholly unnecessary. Another prac!lce o.
ten seen is that of pounding and thrasnlng tpo
