Bloody Milk in Cows.

j.. Cayton inquiries what to do
for a heifer giving bloody milk -
The answer will concern many
farmers, especially to those who
feed high to produce a flow of
milk, regardless Of consequences.
The cause may be the weakness
of the small blood veins, the re.
suit of insufficient amount OF iron
in the system ; or canker may be
the cause. If the former, there
are three certain remedies white
beans, copperas and alders.-
Beans and alders are the most
natural remedies, for the reason
that they take up more iron than
almost any other vegetable. Give
per day one quart of beans or one
tablespoonful of copperas, or feed
as much alder boughs as she will
eat. Ii COWS are kept in pastures
where alders grow they will not
be apt to be troubled with bloody
milk. If the trouble arises from
canker, feed white or lard pine
bough, or one tablespoonful of ros.
in day till cured.
Ii dairymen whose herds are
troubled with pleuro- pneumonia
and nothing else, would make
them eat pine boughs, the COM
plant would soon leave them.
1t is not very easy. thing fer
pleuro pneumonia to fasten it's
deadly poison on the human or
animal system when sufficiently
charged with iron. IF all would
remember this and act accordingly
weeshould hear less of lconsump-
ton in all it's varied forms, both
in man and beast. "a 4
1t must not be supposed the
foregoing remedies will effect a
cure against all odds. If doc
tor had fever patient he would
not consider it good policy for the
patient to roam at large zeut of
doors barefooted in all kinds of
weather. Hence proper care
should be taken with animals till
the system gets strong again. If
Mr.. C's heifer's teats are tender,
perhaps the trouble is in the teats,
in which case tan them in very
strong white oak bark tea, or dis
solve boraX. Soak after milking.

CHLoRAL FOR TooTHACHE.

raj hydrate as a localapplication
in cases of toothache. A few
grains of the solid hydrate in
troduced into the cavity of the

speedily dissolves there; and in
the course of a few minutes,

the pain is either deadened, or
more often effectually allayed.-

HAIR

To PREVENT THE HAIR
FALLING.-If the body is in a
healthful condition, the best
preventive of hair falling and
promotiye of its growth, is to
keep the scalp clean by frequent
washing thereof with pure soft
water. Then keep the head as
cool as possible, and the hair
will not only not fall, but will
grow. In nearly all cases, hair
falls because the scalp is not
kept clean. -

How TO KEEP CIDER SWEET

IIUW To hEEP OIDEK DIV EEL,
The cider after it comes from
the press is allowed to stand un-
til the pOmace settles. 1t is
then put into a clean vessel over
a fire, and brought to a boil-in
the mean time skimming off the
scum as it rises. 1t is then put
into small kegs or bottles, and
tightly corked and sealed. BY
this process cider may be kept
sweet for years.

A Labor Commission

The House Of Representatives has passed
by decided majority, law providing FOL
the appointment Of a commission to inquire
into the condition Of labor and the amount
OF wages paid IN this country, the relation
Of wages TO prices, and the hours Of work
and various other things supposed to enter
into the questions now agitating the minds
Of labor reEormers. and, since the mem Der.
OF these Workingmen's Unions and INTERIM
tional Societies are voters. also sgitating the
minds Of politicians. We notice that the
members Of the House from Vermont did
not vote on the passage Of this bill, which,
We presume, may be accepted as an indica-
ton that they had little if any faith il any
good coming out of IT, It is. indeed, hardly
possible that such comm ission can give the
public any new facts bearing upon the prob
lem Of the relation of labor to capital; and
there is danger that report from them will
at the best, be imperfect and inaccurate in
It's statistics, AMI consequently most unrelia-
bic, if not in fact mischievous in its deduc-
tions and reasonings. And this result is as
likely to make the report apparently favora-
bic to capital as to labor in short, the com
mission will be likely to arrive at just the
conclusions they want to arrive at when they
start
In another aspect of it, it is not easy to
see how such a commission can accompli sh
more than the preparation of an essay on the
subjects committed to their attention. Con
gress, at least, can by legislation do nothing
in respect to the hours or the compensation
of labor, except as to persons in government
employ, and that class of laborers are, as a
rale, now paid better than any other work
men. Very many persons, however, may be
misled by this proposed commission into
the notion that the government can fix the
price of farm hands or day laborers. and
provide in some way that property shall be
moro equally distributed than it now is
aud since it is very clear that Congress car

TEE President ASD CIvIL SERVICE Reform
Sen. hswley Of the Hartford Courant, IN
an able article on the civil service ques ton,
says
e It Is nearly two years since the editor Of
C0lDaa5, IN conversation with Gen. Grant
discussing the civil serv &c. rehearsed in sue
cession some Of the objections to the more
prominent features of the new system. such
as rigid competitive examinations. the life
tenure, ETC., and found the President answer
ing the objections readily, and earnestly ad-
vOcating at least some change. For example,
the editor said he did not like TO think of a
body of forty or fifty thousand civil off 3ers
appointed practically for life. They might
grow into a weIl-driIled, compact, political
army, the obedient partisan servants of the
Executive, and in some emergencies the
dangerous enemies of liberty. The Presi-
dent replied that the very fact that these Off
GERS were appointed to serve during good be-
haviOr, with a tolerable certainty of a compe-
tent salary, and possibly pension in old age,
and would not be either appointed or re-
moved to help personal and merely partisan
purp Jses, would make them less misc hievous
than at present they would be less likely
t. mingle desperately in the fight. lie. spe-
cIally instanced the army and navy. They
embrace large bodies of able and well edu-
Gated men in the service for life, and assured
Of what is virtually pension in old age The
result has been that army and navy officers
make it a point of honor to recognize with
profound respect whomever they may find at
the head Of the nation or of any state. of
whatever party they vote if they choose,
and are entirely free in their opinions, but
are not active in politics and they cultivate
high sense Of honor in all their labors and
duties. The country has no body of servants
OF such uniform fidelity and integrity. The
graduates of West Point and Annapolis
showed larger proportion of loyal men than
any other class of public servants. The
President argued that something OF the same
good results might be reasonably hoped for
under well devised system of civil service,
He IS no new convert. That he is in - dead
earnest " now in his purpose to reform the
civil service there need be no doubt
The President, according to Gen. Hawley,
regards the interference of Office holders
with the freedom of elections as q mischiev-

ion of Jefferson, jackson, Webster, and many

WoNA> SUfFRAGE.-The report Of the Sen
ate Judiciary Committee upon the memorial
Of Mrs. Cady Stanton, Mrs. Isabella Hooker,
Mrs Olympia Brown and others, asking for
a law allowing women to vote in accordance
with the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amend
ments was presented on the 25th inst. by
Senator Carpenter Of Wisconsin.
The report OF the committee save the right
Of female suffrage i theoretically denied by
the second section Of the Fourteenth Amend
ment, which provides that in case q state in
the exercise OF right conceded to exist shall
exclude part Of the male Inhabitants speci-
fed the basis Of representation therein shall
be reduced IL tho proportion which the num-
Der of such excluded male citizens shall bear
to the whole number Of male citizens twenty
one years Of age in such state. The basis is
not to be reduced in the proportion which
the number Of excluded male citizens shall
bear to the whole population Of the state, out
only IN the proportion which they bear TO
the number Of male citizens twenty-one
years of age. Il Is evident from these pro
visions that females arc not regarded as be
longing to the voting population Of state.
The report further says the Fifteenth
Amendment is equally decisive. In conclu-
sion. the committee say that they have only
considered the present consitu tionsl right Of
women to vote, and have not considered the
broader question. whether the Constitution
ought to be 50 amended as to permit female
