DandruT.

Dandruff cannot be prevented.
1t is a natural production upon
every part of the body where hair
is found. It shows more abun-
dainty upon the head from more
active growth of hair upon the
scalp, the facilities for collecting,
and the contrast it bears in early
life to the color ofthe hair.
It is formed in this wise: This
portion of the shaft of the hair
which is contained within the
hair tube is kept steady in its pc
sition by contact with the lining
scarfskin of the tube; and, as this
skin is continually undergoing the
process of formation and exlolia.
ton, the superficial scales of the
sheath ere moved towards its aper-
ture with the growing hair, and
are then scattered on the surface
in the form of scurf, or dry skin;
as the moisture on coming to the
surface evapOrates, these dry scales
necessarily form. 1t is, therefore,
healthy and natural exertion
and should be removed but cannot
be prevented. So, when the ven
der wishes TO sell you a solution
to prevent dandruff, just keep
your money, and tell him You
have a comb and plenty of clear
soft water, which is the best lotion
that should be applied to the
hair.-GaldTdidR of Health.

Strippings.

ALL dairy-women know that strippings,
or last milk obtained from the udder, are
richer in butter globules than the other
portions of the milk. This is especially
the case when the cows remain at rest be
fore milking. If this be doubted, let the
cows run from the pasture to the milking
yard, and note the result. Although it
will make no difference in the butter pro-
duct whether the strippings, if taken, be
churned separately from or in connection
with the cream of the other milk obtain
ed, it does make large difference in both
the quantity and quality of the butter
produced. Hence we have always insist
ed that cows for the dairy, and especially
cows that are kept for furnishing the fam
ly with milk and cream, be not excited to
the detriment Of the quality of the milk.
In the case of these latter cows, the
strippings are Of consequence, as furnish
ing milk for coffee, etc, nearly equal in
richness to cream itself Dr. Anderson,
of Edinburgh, Scotland, who has given
much attention to subjects connected with
milk, has proved by actual analysis that
the last gill of milk drawn from the udder
of a COW contains sixteen times the
amount of cream incident to the first one,
the separation of the cream from the milk
taking place in part in the udder, particu-
larly in instances where the animal is suf-
fered to stand at rest for some time before
milking Western Raral.

Coming Styles.

OF autumn modes it is hardly time TO
speak definitely, only one thing being as
sured. The promise of plainness, made
in the early summer, will be strictly kept
superintendent tiOunces and furbelOws
will take an unlimited leave Of winter
wardrobes, and artistic simplicity reign
in their stead How our weary and over
dressed women have sighed for this
change, they only are aware and that they
will hail the new order with delight is I'M
doubted. 1t is limited that the prospective
styles will require not more than half the
quantity Of the past; but this is dream
that seems impossible of realization.
1t is not improbable that the newly
modelled garments may have skinny
appearance, but familiarity will soon ar
range that, and once accustomed to it,
weary eyes will be thankful they are no
longer compelled to wander over vast
fields of Fittings and hedgerows of head
ingS.
Plainness of fabric, no less than of
fashion, is to be the rule. New goods,
different from any yet produced, will
soon be shown, and new colors, or rather
new shades, are imminent The tints and
double-distilled shades of last year were
so unbecoming to Americans that the dry
goods houses are importing only novel
hues, which it is expected will satisfy the
most eXacting Home and Society,"" Serb

Winter Care of Horses.

CONSIDERABLE is written nowadays
about false economy in various ways
My observation leads to the conclusion
that one important item is almost entirely
overlooked, and that thousands of dollars
are lost each year by the careless winter
ing of farm horses. For instance, farmer
a owns fine span Of horses; he is not
much OF horseman, but in the summer
he works them, and keeps a man who
takes good care of them. In the fall,
after work is over, the horses are put into
the stable and fed all the hay they will
eat (be the same good or bad): are left
perhaps a week or two at time, with lit
tie or no exercise, and, when they are
driven, are let GO at the top of their
speed Fast driving, with stomachs full
OF undigested hay, is the very worst of
| treatment. The result is that, in q year
or two, the horses have the heaves badly,
are spoiled for market and are unable TO
do the usual amount of service or the
farm or road and this alone causes a loss
each year so long as the team is used
This could in some degree be avoided
by building a shed with yard for exer-
else, and by feeding food Of sufficient
strength to keep the muscles in full
strength. Some say that wintering hor-
ses in the field on hay alone, will cause a
falling away of muscles and strength diff
cult to regain No doubt, being chilled
by standing in cold barn is very in
furious to horses.-C0r. Country Gentle

How to Buy a Horse.

Be sure that the horse you purchase has
symmetry, viz: is we'll proportional
throughout Never purchase horse be-
cause he has a splendid development of
one part of his organization if he is lack
ing in any other. Above all, keep we'll in
mind what you are buying for, and buy
the horse best adapted to the work you
will require OF him: and when such an
animal is yours be content Never
jockey. An occasional exchange may be
allowable; but the daily swapping of
horses advertises a mans incompetency
for anything higher Another caution is
this: Never purchase horse until you
have seen him move, and under the same
conditions to which he will be exposed in
the service You will expect of him. If for
a draft, see him draw, back, and turn
round in both directions; if for the road,
seeshow he handles himself, not merely on
level ground, but going up sharp declivi
ties, and, above all, in descending them
In this way you will ascertain the faults
or excellencies of both his temper and
structure.
In these exercises drive him yourself.
The reins in skillful hand, aided by the
whip or mouth, can be made to conceal
grave defects. Let him move with loose
rein, so that he may take his natural gait

Democratic Financiering.

The Democratic papers continue the
policy to which we alluded few days
since, of making political capital out of
the financial crisis. President Grant, of
course, is responsible for it all, just as he
was responsible for the ravages Of the
yellow fever, the smallpox, the cholera,
the potato bug, and the Allen County
movement, to say nothing Of the Wise and
Butler balloons. And while all are
agreed that it is the President who is re-
motely responsible for the trouble, they
are charmingly disagreed as to the imme-
diate causes, and the desirable remedy
While complaining few months since
that we were paying off our debt too rap
idly at the cost OF burdensome taxation,
they now urge that our immense indebted
ness is the cause of the panic, and that we
have no business to be owing so much.
While maintaining short time since that
any limitation of the circulating medium
could be undertaken only with great haz-
ard, they are now as warm in urging that
our inflated currency is the direct cause
OF the Crisis. As to remedial efforts, they
have the same refreshing inconsistency.
When it was rumored that the Treasury
would draw upon its legal re-
serves for money to supply the needs of
Wall street, the President came in for
the bitterest of invective; and when, on
the other hand, it appeared that such
action would not be resorted to, they as
vehemently insist that the Treasury
should assist to save the country from a
terrible crash. The Philadelphia Inquirer
gives tongue on this trail with noisy de-
mand for "a man" at the head of the
Treasury Departmental man, such an
one as could gather the storm in his hand
and hold it.
The length to which this most ridicu-
Ious criticism can go is witnessed in the
following extract from the Rochester
IN. " Union:
On Saturday Mr. Grant arrived at the
Fifth Avenue Hotel, New York, the head
quarters of the gamblers of Wall street.
On Snhday-mark, on SUNDAY-Christian
Republicans, observe, on SUNDAY. YES
terday, he met and consulted the gamblers
as to how he might best use the taxes
gathered from the people to put them on
their feet ana start them again. One dis
patch dated last Sunday evening saws
President Grant and Secretary Richard
son have been in consultation at the Fifth
Avenue Hotel since noon t0-day (Sunday)
with the prominent capitalists" etc. And
another: president Grant, Secretary
Richardson, Senator Morton and General
Baocock were ready before noon (Sundayl,
to hear the views, suggestions" etc. This
rushing of the President of the United
: States from Washington to the pool of the
railroad and stock gamblers at the Fifth
Avenue Hotel, New York, t. aid them
with the peoples money, is outrageous
enough IN itself; but when it is added
that the Lords day was desecrated by the
negotiation, it is unnecessary to seek for
lower deep.
A little less of such twaddle, and more
dispassIonate attempts to point out to
their readers the reason for confidence.
which really exists, would be a decided
change for the better But then it would
not be Democratic Cincin1ott

4 Serious Loss.

ONE of the most serious losses to the
farmers of the West, especially of the
newer portions, though the evil is seen
nearly everywhere, is that arising from
the waste Of the "coarse fodder" or rough
feed''-cornstalks, straw, etc. Corn is left
to rlpen on the stalks, instead of being
cut and shocked, as it invariably should
be. The huSking is not done till late in
October, and is often delayed even until
winter has set in. Cattle are then turned
into the fields to live off the stalks, but
they make very poor fodder after the nu-
triment has been so thoroughly dried up
and frozen out When the small grain is
threshed the straw is allowed to go to
waste-often burned, which is a most
foolish and ruinous disposition to make
OF it. Many a farmer winters his cattle on
straw and cornstalks, and they come out
in the spring IN fine condition. But by
far the larger proportion Of the farmers
allow all this food to 60 to utter waste.
We judge that the loss to the average
farmer in the Western States, from a fail
ure to make the best use of his trough
feed" is at least ten per cent annually
upon the amount of his productions. This
loss, III the course of ten years, would
amount to handsome figure Many NAV
be unable, from the lack Of means and
scarcity of labor, to utilize it-as in the
case OF the returned Californian, who
lost 100000 the first year he was in the
Golden State, from not having hogs to
tatten on the acorns; but little progress
might be made each year looking to a
complete saving of these matters after a
while. The subject is an important one,
and the farmers should make it matter

Cause of Weakness After Bathing.

THE JournaL Of Heath says the cause of
weakness after bathing is bathing at the
wrong time; too great fatigue at the time
of bathing; too much bathing; too long
continued bathing. When one is made
weak by a bath, he should cease to take
that bath. There is great deal too much
bathing carried on. The use of water in
this country has come to be with people
whose attention has been called thereto
only less dangerous than the use Of medi-
cine. God has not made the human body
to be immersed in water all the time Ii
persons would live rightly, they would
need 10 battle but very little. Natures
plan of bathing if all of the ordinary con-
ditions of life are right, is through the
sweat of the body; and one of the best
ways of bathing we have ever found with
feeble patients, is to have them drink very
largely of the water of our springs-always
drunk, however, in very small quantities
at time-but drunk very frequently, and
so battle their skins from the inside. This
is one kind of bathing that is not danger
Gus if rightly administered. The best
time for taking bath is at that period of
the day when the sun is in its progress to
the highest point in the heavens. Along
the forenoon is the best time 10 battle,
other things being equal.
