THERHIis q common, but false, notion
that frequent cutting of the hair is favor
able to its growth. Mothers thus often
bespoil their infants of their first silken
locks, with the idea that the second hair
Will be mich more rich and abundant.
This isap error. The most beautiful and
Astounding heads of hair we ever saw
were thosefwhich the scissors had never
touched: 1Motherss-hOt-satis6e with
trimming the hair of their children, often
have ID shaved or cut it close to the, scalp
when they find it is losing some of its
brilliancy or falling out. Except in rare
cases of disease, the total sacrifice of the
hair Is unnecessary, and the second
gfoWthgis never equal to the first. Get
ting the hair trimmed from time to time,
may be allowed as q matter of conVen-
fence, but it does not produce the benefit
generally attributed to it-EcchGnge.
4FoDDEn FOR HoGS "A correspondent of
the JoErnGt Of Agriculture says: I have
never seen any distinction made between
growing adder for COWS and hogs, and
one, might, suppose that there is none ;
but there Is quite q difference. ANY close
-observer2Nhl see that COWS eat the blades
first and then the stalk. With hogs it is
just the reverse; they look for nubbins
first, then the stalk, and last the blade (f
at sll.) My experience is this If I meant
to feed to. COVE, I would SON about forty
grains to the foot /; if it was intended for
hogs Il would SOW about twenty to the
foot. Where it is sown about twenty to
the foot, every stalk will have q nubbin
on it,. which is quite an item. I SOW in
drills -four and a half to five feet apart,
and cover with a one-horse harrow, as it
comes up more even than if covered in
any other way.
