We frequently see a miserable, half-starvel
bovine without particle of flesh its bones, but
what muscles will hold its frame together, and
having hard, unyielding skin covered with dirt
and scruf put mp to Ike fed for the butcher on dry
hay, to which few roots and perhaps some grain
is grudgingly added. Such beast will take
months of time and large consumption of food
to bring it up to the point at which the process of
laying on fat will commence; or, if highly fed OIL
cOrn-meal or other rich food, will put on layer
of fat just under the skin, with scarcely any flesh
between that and the bones, and 20 be worth but
little more after feeling up than it would fetch
a store beast.
Then again there are thousands of beasts put
up to feed for the butcher before they have at
tanned age at which they can be prOfitably fed.
Such animals, though they may be made passable
enough tn suit the wants Of the drover or low
class butcher, can only be sold at low price and
attain but small weights, while, had they been
kept on till they had attained their full growth,
mand double or treble the price,.
Cattle intended to he wmter-fed for the butcher
should have reached maturity as regards the
develOpement Of ELECTROMAGNETIC and digestive sys-
TENS To get the animals in proper condition
to be fed mp, they must have the run of such good
pasture, in the summer and fall before being put
up rs will bring them into the stalls full of flesh
well laid on at every valuable point. This done,
the process of feeding in order to lay fat at the
right point and in the proper manner becomes
both profitable and takes moderate length of
time. Such an animal, well managed, will bring
in mnch more per pound live weight than one Of
equal size fed in the ordinary way.

A correspondent of Lars of Life, who claims to
have had extended experience, is decidedly of
the opinion" that apples keep far better when put
into close boxes or barrels and secluded as much
as possible from the air. When thus stored, he
says they will come ont in the spring full and
plump a. when taken from the tree. Many va
rieties, as the Talman Sweet, Spitzenberg, and
those kinds that ara not considered as long kee-
pers, and shrivel badly, will do well treated in
this way. ! have, he continues, found universally
that they keep better to let them lie without pick
ing over. 1t is much better to pile them into n
large bin across the cellar, say six of seven feet
high and four or five feet wide, and cover them
mp tight, than to lay them ON the shelves. 1
once saw such bin that the man had kept through
the winter. About the first of April he thought
he would open the windows on the side of the eel
lar next to the bin to let in the air, that they
might keep better. was at his place, and he
called my attention to the fact. Two windows
just over the bin were opened about ten days or
two weeks, and the apples exactly opposite the
windows were about One-third rotten for as much
as a foot in depth, and the remaining part on
either side were not rotten at all. Another in
stance: A neighbor of mine had about five hun
dred bushels in pile in a cellar. As they became
a little specked he commenced picking them over;
when about half done, got tired, and concluded to
let them go. When marketed about six weeks
after, found that abOut One-thirl of those picked
over were not fit for market, while all hut about
One-twentieth of the others were good. This
have seen i'm numerous instances. If yOu wish to
try the experiment, make box as tight as
carpenter can make it, and when picking from
the orchard fill it and nail it fast. Let it lie in
the orchard till it is in danger of freezing then
put it in the cellar. Put the same quantity
shelves for trial. am pretty sure one expert
ment will convince.

SOME years ago, when Tom Corwin and Tom
Ewing were on political pilgrimage to the
Northern part of the State, they were invited to
tarry over night with distinguished local poll
tician. The guests arrived rather late, and the
lady of the mansion being absent, young lady,
a niece, undertook to preside on the occasion.
She had never seen great men, and supposed they
were elephantine altogether, and all talked in
great language. Mr.. Ewing, will you take any
condiments in your tea, sr'' inquired the young
lady. "Yes, Miss, if You please" replied the
quondam Salt Boiler. Corwin's eyes twinkled.
Here fun for him. Gratifed with the appa-
rent Of her first trial at talking with big
men, the young lady addressed Mr.. Corwin i'm the
same manner. "WIl you take condiments in
your tea, sir Z" pepper and salt, but no mus
tard, WAS the prompt reply of the facetiOns,
Tom. OF course nature must ont, and Ewing and
the entertainer roared in spite of themselves.
Corwin cssayed to mend the matter, and was val
uabe in anecdOte and wit and compliment. Bnt
the wound was unavoidable. The young lady,
to this day, declares that Tom Corwin is q coarse,
vulgar, and disagreeabe man.-7oledo Blade.

writer in the Springfield Leader calls atten-
ton to the Importance Of utilizing the leaves of
the sumac that grows in such great abundance
all over Southwest Missouri, and says:
But very few persons are aware that the sumac
is of any value whatever, and will, no doubt, be
surprised to learn that the tanners of this cOun-
try pay annually as much as a million and half
i'm money for sumac leaves. OF this amount about
two-thrls il paid for foreign sumac, and the grea-
ter portion of the remainder is furnished by Vir-
ginia and Maryland. The tanners of st. Louis
import large quantities every year from New York
and Baltimore all of which should be furnished by
Southwest Missouri.
The Missouri sumac is only worth at present
e per hundred in the leaf, while that Of Virginia
and Maryland is worth from 8 to $3.50, merely
because it is ground. have made arrangements
in 81. Louis to have its value demonstrated by
fair analysis, the result of which will determine
its true value in the market. Anybody can work

Julia Colman says, in the Rnral Ner Yorker,
"that most acceptable drink is made by putting
about two small teaspOonfnls of oatmeal in tum-
bier Of water. 1t is at once nourishing, unstim-
ulating, and satisfying. This is also rapidly CON-
ing in use in large establishments where men work
much in the heat 1t has long been used in the
large glass factories and iron f0undries of Europe
and it is coming into use in our country. II is
common to find it in the large Government works.
In the Brooklyn Navy Yard it is great favorite,
two and a half pounds of oatmeal being put into
q pail of moderately cool water. 1t is said to be
better than any of the drinks made up with vim
egar, molasses, &C., which our farmers nse in the
harvest field. A well-known medical writer says
that from it is obtained power to sustain the
hausting influence of perspiration.' Indeed, we
have seen 1t tried with great satisfaction, and
commend it to the attention of our hard working
friends in the harvest-feld."

Carins Green Hides.

A great many butchers, wool dealers, &c, are
purchasers Of hides off the beef in the country
towns, and we often get from them inquiries as to
the most proper and profitable method of curing
the hide and preparing it for the market. great
many butchers do not use proper care in this
branch, and the consequence is that the hides
will not pass city inspection, owing entirely to
the ignorance and carelessness Of the person who
prepared them for market. The proper way to
salt hides is, to lay them ont fiat flesh side up,
and form nearly square bed, say IL by Is feet,
folding in the edges SO as to make them as nearly
solid as possible. Split the ear in the cord that
run up the ear in each one, to make them lie
ont fiat. Sprinkle the hide with two or three
shOvelfus of coarse salt, the size may require
fifteen pounds of salt At any rate cover the hide
well, as it need not be wasted; then let them lie
in this from Is to 20 days. after which take them
up, shake the salt out, and use it again.-Shoc and
Leather Reporter.
