THU PIOCHE DAILY RECORD

There is something really grand in the
march of civilization over our western
prairies. We learn from official reports
that during 1872 over ten million seven
hundred thousand acres passed from the
domain of the Government into private
hands. Slowly and steadily the ad-
vancing columns move on, and the child
is now living who is to see the whole of
the magnificent territory between the
Mississippi and the Pacific converted
into happy homes.

CARE OF Cows IN AUTUMN.-An enter
prlsing farmer of Western New York commu
nicated to us recently his pract ce in the
management of his cows during the season
when grass begins to fall. He says the grea'
secret of rearing and feeding stock successful
ly is, to keep what you get-to save every
pound of flesh and fat that is produced. The
question living still back of this is, how shall
the fat and flesh be retained? What to do
and how to do it is the question. Hitherto
have always commenced feeding my cows
meal in October, and continued the regular
feed through November; and we made more
butter in one of those autumn months than
in any other month of the grazing season.

when dipped in and heaped up full, about two
quarts OF good Indian corn and cats, of equal
parts made of the pure grain, l never ''cob''

of management. With every fifteen bushels
of corn and oats ningle, before it is or urd.

the quality of the feed fol animals of anv
kind, as ground fax seed when mingled with

year for the express purpose of having the
seed to minge with the grain that is ground
into meal for my cows and other stock.

to save all that is made without losing any
portion. The little losses abstract the pronts.

He has passed the greater part of his naval

well acqua nted with. the affairs ofthat island.
His appoD Dimeut, coupled with that of Mar

the maintenance Of friendly relations between
the United States and Spain. Admiral Polo
de Barr abe made himself prominent under
The reign OF Queen Isabella, by advocating
violent measures against the South Amcri-
can republics, particularly against the repub
lie OF Peru. He was so yiolt nj in his attack
on the government for what he called its
trucking to the United States and in demand
ing more vigorous prosecution of the war
that he was removed from his position. He
predicted that the defeat of the Peruvians
would ultimately lead to the restoration Of

entitled ''The Futnre Greatness of Spain,'
which, in one of its chapters. treated the re-
lations OF Spain to the United States. Ad-
miial Polo conteided in it that the Monroe
doctrine was an insolent assumption on the
part OF the Unitrd States, and that Spain
had more reason than any ether L ropean
country to disregard and defy it, The author
also tired 10 prove. from documents relating
TO the war against the rebellion. that the ag-

inferior to lat OF Span; that the American
Lazy was unable to cope with the Spanish

only greatly IiDjurt, but totally DESTROY, the
