Collie i'm Horses.

Treatment of collie in horses is not
always such as will lead TO cure, and
there is no disorder of the horse that
more frequently leads to loss of the ami
NAL than an attack of collie. DIR. J. A.
Hopkins, in the THrT, Field and Far1a,
refers TO some simple remedies which
may be used by any one with effect, in
sudden attacks of this disease. He says
'TThere are of course various forms of
colo, and protracted attack will often
produce complications which REQUIRE
skillful treatment, and the presence of a
veterinary surgeon. The remedies here
offered are for the most frequent and
easily distinguished gases of fatulent
collie
Zone simple remedy frequently very
etfectual is, two ounces or four table
Spoonfuls Of salaratus in pint of strong
ginger tea; another, a pint of warm salt
water, v lth an enema of the same-the
injections will often bring away large
volumes of wind-another, one ounce of
cAmphorated spirits in a pint of sweet
ened water. These may be obtained in
town or country at almost every house,
when other prescriptions requiring pre-
paration may not be easily got. | add
these drcnches, all Of which | have used
with good result
Il. Sulphuric ether, ounce; laudanum
, ounces; compound decoction Of aloes,
. ounces. Mix and give every hour unit
elievcd
-. Spirits of turpentine, 2 ounces;
laudanum, Il ounces; pint of sweetened
water. Mix and give every hour.
"3. Aromatic spirits of ammonia, II
ounces; laudanum, ? ounces; tincture of
ginger, Il ounces; l pint of warm ale
BLK and give every hour.
''The above are what might properly
be termed allOpathic remedies. The usual
homeopathic treatment for collie is
two or three doses of aconita, followed by
arsenicum. After attacks of colo, great
care should always be taken of the horse,
in order that a relapse does not occur,
proper attention being given to the food
aud water, warm bran mashes and water
from which the chill has been taken only
being allowed"

butter Making.

We notice in the New England Farmer
an interesting communication from A. w.
Cheever, Esq, of Massachusetts,, on the
subject Of making butter, some of the
main points of which will be found an
ucycd:
"Butter is composed of fat or oil, cas-
cine or curd and water. Good butter
should contain at least 50 per cent of fat
or oil. The oil or fat of butter, like lard
or other fat, is composed of solid or mar
garine fat, and liquid or Oleine fat Win
ter butter contains, according to Professor
Thompson, of solid fat, 60 parts in 100,
while summer butter contains only 40
paris. This fact explains the reason why
cream should be churned at different tenn
pcraturcs IN different seasons of the year.
II should always be churned at such a
temperature that when it does come it
will gather well Not so cold that the
butter will he in crumbs that will not stick
well together nor so warm as to be
greasy. Fresh sweet cream will not
Churn as quickly as that which is sour.
In winter l prepare my cream for churn-
ing the day previous. The cream is kept
in large tin pals.
"The day before churning, it is all
mixed together as evenly as possible, so
as no fresh cream will be in pail by
itself, and warmed oyersa stove (stirring
constantly to q temperature of from 60
to 20 degrees aud then placed in a room
where it will be warm enough to have the
whole get little sour. The next day it
is warmed up again in the same way to
the desired temperature for Churning.
Cream should never "stand around in q
wooden churn all day, nor three 1Oeeks
as | have known cases; nor should tin
vessels be used after they get old and
worn rusty. They will impart bad taste
and give the butter bad color. If the
cream, when at the right temperature, is
too thick and stiff, it will come too soon,
and all the srcam viii not be churned, but
viii be washed into the butter milk. Such
cream should be thinucd with milk TO
diminish the friction and ret2rd the pro-
cess, ~ that all the cream may have time
tp be churncl alike. have never found
that little freezing would injure cream,
if it was managed Us | have directed pre-
yi0us To being ChUrncL -

A Georgia farmer urges the importance
Of deep blowing in case of 3 drought. He
says that fields that were thus cultivated
last year stood the drought wonderfully.
The following article from the Southern
Planter and Farmer in regard TO the
best way Of meeting drought will be found
interesting and useful:
"Whcn an individual suffers with dis
ease. or community is depressed in con-
sequence of pcCuniary or political trouble,
the first anxiety is for a remedy, and an
aDplication is urged with vigor. While,
then. our State is suffering from this Sc
we're drought, let US profit by this expert
cnce and guard against it in future, if
possible.
s'The question has been frequently put
10 ne during the past few weeks Of-llOw
is the corn on the farm! All your corn
burned up, suppose. 1t is the case with
nearly all M fields ! have seen, must
confess, but the corn on about one hun.
bred acres of the farm scarcely show any
sign of dry weather, and there appears to
but slight cause for all this, which / can
best give by briefly describing our last
four months experience. The best corn
is on ground plowed twice-frst very
earlv in the spring, and again at planting
time; by this means we expose the ground
TO spring frosts, pulyerizing ii completely,
killing the larva of insects. The fields
were not broken up by the trio we SO
often see of a boy, mule and culture OF
jumping shovel, but large pillow, three
heavy horses and man were found neces
sary TO DO the work TO our satisfaction
and with a steady gait and strong pull
the horses were able to perform 'heil
parts well, turning over considerable
ground during the course of a day.
"When ready for planting, we pulyeT
lied the ground well with a thirty-fOur
ioothed harrow and as soon as the bladt
was fairly out Of the ground, we put il
some steol-toOthed cultivators; but thi
mode of procedure met with grea. oppc
siuion from several of the neighbors WIFI
had meyer used them, and predicted tina
unless we used the single toothed cultiva
for we would fail 10 make a crop of corn
We felt willing to risk it as we knew tn
virtue.of the cul,ivators from years of eI
ncricnCc. Suffice it TO say, that to-da
