Treatment of CaIycs-.Drying up Cows.


Much has been said and written about
the best treatment Of calves, and so many
have advised their immediate removal that
we this spring venturod to try It, Out of
four so treated TALL heifers, worth 500
each when they were dropped enc died
before it was n week old another is scour-
ing badly that we have but little hope Of
its recovery, and a third is ailing aud
weakly. We have had quite enough Of
this treatment, and shall return to our Gus
tom Of leaving all calves with their moth
ers until they are at least three days old,
and longer if necessary to start them fairly
and vigorously on the road of life, prac-
tice which has hitherto produced the most
satisfactory results.
have also experimented---until have
regretted ton another theory Of some
modern breeders of erseys---that is, to
milk the cows quite up to the time Of calv-
ing, if possible. In every case, am con-
WINGED that real and probably permanent
injury has resulted. The idea advanced
was that Jersey COW has no other purpose
but to bring calves and to produce milk, and
that she should be trained to the fullest aud
most persistent exercise Of the lacieal func-
ton. The subject has been presented to
me so long aud so persuasiyely, and by
men whose opinion seemed so well worthy
Of respect, that | had come TO more
than half believe it, and have tried the ex-
pertinent this spring with several animals.
In every case there has been trouble
with the udder, and thus far the flow of milk
is less than it was after the previous eolv-
ing. The calves have not been materially
affected by it, but the mothers have been IN
every instance. Hereafter, we shall en-
deavor to dry off all Of the cows month
before calving. Up to that time it is well
to keep the milk flowing, (if only pint a
day. and with Jerseys it is almost always
easy to do this but after that the milking
should cease, and the udder should be al
lowed to become entirely empty Of milk,
preparatory to the commencement Of its
new period of activity" springipg" regu.

The Fight at The WOod-Pilc.


One night, at late hour. DR.. Benty.

sound among some wood which, sawed and
split for bis study Ere, had been leit 10y The

cautiously TO the window and saw woman
filing her apron with wood, which she
hastily carried away. He resumed bis
scat and recommended his study. Shortly
after, the same noise occurred, aud on look
ing ont q second time he saw a similar
operation, the woman filling her apron 10
its utmost capacity. When she had gone
he returned TO his book with q tender pity
in bis heart for desiitution which sought
relief IN this lonely, drcary, not 10 say SIN

Gods All Round.

The dusk Of an carly au,umnal night
was gathering over the city, when a gentle
man, on his way home, felt little hand
clasp his, aud heard sweet little voice say,
Good evening" Looking down, herocog-
nized face that he knew, that Of child
Of five or six years; and surprised that
she should be in the street at that hour, he
said, why, my dear, are you alone2 Is
not your father with you ?" NO." she
answered. "And are you not afraid ="
Afraid Why, Gods all round, was
the quick reply.
To me this is very beautiful. Our path
way turns into the shade over US gather the
clouds and the storms the night comes
but why need NC fear Gods all round. "
Ga the wind Of the tempest, on the wave
of the sea, on the moan of the restless tide
his tender voice is borne in upon our hearts
and we cannot fear lie that keepeth us
will not slumber If we have the chid's
faith, and the child's love, in our hours OF
darkness we shall but get closer TO our God
and be conscious Of His near personal pres.

How well should we work, if we could
get il into US, as a part of our consciousness
this thought OF God. lie is not far off
He has not merely appointed our tasks and
then gone away and left US to plod through
them as hest we may. He is all round
He knows when our days are full Of faith,

CALIFORNIA; wheat fields are proving
almost as great, and will probably be u
moro enduring source Of wealth than her
gold mines. From July !, 1872, to July
T., 1873, three hundred and seventy-six
vessels loaded with wheat and -four sailed
from San Francisco The amount was
about 100000 sacks of wheat, each con-
tanning one hundred pounds, and 100000
barrels Of -four Nearly all of this vast
quantity went to Great Britain. What
seems especially worthy of note in this
connection, is the fact that only thirteen or
fourteen years ago -four was shipped from
Boston to San Francisco. This shows how
rapidly the agricultural resources Of the
State have been developed.

The guano dealers are getting into bad
odor, aside from that arising from the com
modify in which they deal. The Peruvian
government, so It is said, is about to insti.
tute suits against six New York dealers
who are charged with reGlling old bag'
(which have contained guano and so branded
and bought from the farmers for a few
cents eaeh) with worthless imitation Of
guano, which they then sell as genuine. II
is also alleged that the dealers counterfeit
the Peruvian trademark. The agents Of
the Peruvian government are in New York
working up the cases.

- lntrospection or differentiation is
necessary to verify Christian experience.
1t is especially necessary in preacher Of
the gospel who is to guide others. A cold,
unsympathizing pastor, who has no fellow
ship Of experience with those whom be ad-
dresses, cannot get hold Of their passions
and lead them to Christ. Book knowledge
on this subject is secondary, useful only to
lead to experience and observation. No
man can learn to preach solely from books
not even wholly from the Bible lie must
feel, he must know.
