cows should receive the most attention,
| they often receive none, at least from the
''men folksn of the family.
The horses and oxen have a bountiful
supply and at frequent intervals. because
1t is necessary for them Id order to do the
amount of work required of them The
brood mares and the fatteniug cattle are
also cared for; for the reason that good
colts and fat bullocks eau only be expect
ed if this care is. taken. But with the
cure OF the hay and grain the poor COWS
are often neglected or left to the tender
mercies of the women, who have no time
with their manifold duties to dig wells or
TO clean out springs. a Meantime thecsup-
ply of milk falls off, aud at every sue
cessive churuing there is q less amount of
Dulter. 6Gs fEswluiI l-ir1A 2. az hlfF
The truthsiss COWS that are giving milk,
not only require very considerable
amount of wafer, but they need it 6ftefI
The process of secreting the milk is one
that goes on constantly, and as this fluid
is 30 largely composed of water, enough
of it should always be within reach that
the animal can get a supply. There are
very many Western pastures that are sup
piled with living water, and there. are not
afew farmers who put their cows in such
an enclosure, only furnish them water at
milking time, morning and night. This
practice is not only very poor &c jnomy-
as far as any profit from the COW is CON
cerned,-but it is downright, cruelty. In
weather like that of large portion of the
present season, much water is needed for
perspiration and for supplying other func-
tons of the system. a53I .yuG1u7o odf
If the supply of water is not abundant,
the COWS become restless, 1feverish and
fretful. One day passed in this manner
will do very much toward drying up the
best of COWS. A dairy COW viii very
soon show falling off in the supply of
milk in the same pasture where an animal
not IN milk is gaining in flesh all the time.
On the comparatively, arid plains of
Texas, there are plenty of well fattened
cattle; but even the domesticated cows
give scarcely any milk The increase of
the flow of milk after rain is often at
tributed entirely to the improved condi-
tons of the feed in the pasture, whereas
much of it is due to the increased supply
of water. 1t is to be regretted that any
pasture where dairy cows are kept is de-
ficient of living water, but as such is the
case an artificial supply only can insure
flow of milk. If cows have to be kept
for a part of the time in q pasture where
there is no supply of water, they should
at least be let out at midday to enable
them to quench their thirst. They need
this opportunity much more than horses
and working cattle do, and no ole would
think to stint their allowance to a water
ing at morning and night.-IIinoiS

--E1 Djeodi, an Arab paper published at Con-
stnntinople, has just been suspended for two
months on account of n recent article in which
it stated that if q war had broken out between
Turkey and Egypt, the Arab subjects Of the
Porte would have risen in insurrecton.
The Russian papers announce an important
discovery by Carlson, learned Norwegian
which will give great impetus to Siberian
trade. He had cruised for scientific purposes IN
an expedition undertaken last summer to the
Karian Sea, which washes the southern part of
the isle of Nova Iembla and the Government of
Tobolsk, and is covered with eternal ice. In
this ice n passage was discovered which, for
several months in the year, offers convenient
path for traffic between Siberia and the Norwe-
giun harbOr of Iromsoe This discovery was
made at the same time by the Englishman
Pallser.
The Bombay Gazette, speaking of the pre-
sent working of the Indo- European Telegraph,
complains that, whereas in other countries tele-
grams come in anticipation of the mails in
India the mail anticipates the kilograms. On
the same day that English extracts were pub
lished In that paper to the 18th of November,
they received kilograms from London of the Sth
and 9th OF the same month Qeceivcd when the
contents of the papers of later date were fami-
liar to them). On the day following they re-
ceived telegram of the 10th of November; and
further old kilograms since, which they have
published, not as news, but as curiosites of
telegraphy. If this state of things is to con-
tinue, the Gazette says it would be far better to
have telegraph at all. Would il not be possible
to keep back the news by the mails until all the
missing kilograms drop in? The Interest and
excitement would be just the same in the long
rum 1t is a most uncomfortable idea-that of
mails anticipating kilograms. For aught we
know, some one telegram may take years to
come from the other end of the world If it has
become entangled at the bottom of the sea, and
our great grandchildren may be knocked up in
the middle of the night by the arrival of the
news of their grandfather's birth long after his
decease. Submarine telegraphic communica-
ton is u marvel of science, and very convenient
if it is properly worked, but we expect it to
will be of very little use if, instead of flashing
their intelligence with regularity we can de-
pend on, they take to playing these electrical
tricks
