The Vital Drain,

that good digestion and perfect assimilation are

Farm Stock in Summer.

GOVT Of sight, out Of mind,n far too
frequently characterizes the treatment
which farm stock receives during the sum-
mer months. Young stock in particular
are usually turned out into some pasture
far away from the owners residence,
where they must shift for themselves, fire.
quently suffering for full supply of
good fresh water, food, salt, and other
necessaries Of life. Probably there is not
one thing for the want of which cattle suf
fer more in summer than a supply of pure
water. On thousands Oftarms animals are
obliged to drink from a mud-hole filled
with warm, Sinking water, instead Of
from pure cold springs, wells or running
streams. Cattle may have plenty of food
but they cannot thrive without an abUnd-
ance of pure water. 1t is not enough that
they are Watered once or twice a day, and
at stated times allowed to drink to excess
as they will usually do in very hot
weather; but animals that run out to pas
ture should have water where they can
get to it whenever disposed to take Il
drink If allowed this privilege. they will
not wait until choking with thirst before
visiting their watering places.
SUMNER PASTURE.
If water becomes scarce on account of
droutn, the pastures will also fail, and one
needs to have an eye on the food as well
as drink for stock Better feed some
grain occasionally than TO permit animals
TO fall away in flesh at this season. If our
readers have followed the advice we gave
them early in spring, and now have a
supply Of drilled corn, green rye or oats
which can be cut and fed out to their ami
mails, the short crop of grass in pastures
will not be so severely felt.
Our climate is so variable that farmers
should never depend wholly upon pasture
for a full supply Of food, for while it may
answer five years out of ten, during the
other five we are pretty sure to find the
grass in all upland pastures burned up by
drought Then again, there is never a loss
IN this raising of an extra amount of any
forage crops which can be cut for summer
or winter use. because, if not needed in
summer it will surely be wanted in win
ter; and, if not the first year, it may be
kept over until the next. We have had
five times as much corn fodder as our
stock would eat, but in such cases the
animals were allowed to pick out the
leaves and best portions, and the remain
der was spread over the BARNARD and
there trampled down for manure. Of
this latter material no farmer ever had too
much, even on the rich prairie soils of the
Western States, where the straw of nearly
all the grain raised is usually burned to
get it out of the way, and where land is
now growing poor for a lack of these very
materials which have been destroyed
Another benefit of feeding animals in
summer. especially young stock, is that
they become accustomed to the presence
of those who have them in charge, and
are therefore readily handled whenever it

Majority against the bill....
The vote Of the Democrats was as fol-
Majority for the bill.

1t will thus be seen that while the Re
publican members of Congress cast their
vote against the salary grab by majority
of eight, the Democrats voted for it by a
majority Of nineteen, thus carrying the
measure through both branches by giving
greater majority for it than the Repub-
licans could carry against it. The Dem
Ocratic members not only wiped out the
Republican majority Of eight against the
measure, but give in addition eleven votes
for the bill.
This law was not only passed by Dem
ocratic votes, but the leaders of the party
were at first little disposed to find fault
with the measure. Nothing but the un-
swerving devotion of the Republican
party to principles of honesty and genu-
inc Republican simplicity, and their
united and unqualified condemnation of
this unwarranted plumber Of the public
treasury, making it odious and offensive
to the people, induced that party to even
measurably censure the robbery. We can
only point to a single instance in which
the Democrats in a Democratic Congress
sional District have condemned their
Representative for voting or receiving the
extra pay. The moral influence of that
party, such as it is, has been on the side
of the salary steal, as were the votes of
its members in Congress. Whenever a
Democrat undertakes to hold Republi-
cans responsible for that odiOus measure,
just call his attention to the foregoing
factS-TOled0 Blade.

are in the habit of speaking of the salary

that they would not willingly misrepre-

both branches Of Congress, and had not a
few of their number voted with the Dem

scheme could have been defeated by the
Republicans. The Republican members

Mr.. ROGERS, of Winchester street,
thought he would surprise his wife and
few of her friends with an ice-cream treat,
Saturday evening, as the weather was

it put up in several thicknesses of paper

him how to carry it, and Mr.. Rogers

Rogers, who was a personal friend Of
Miss Emerson, claimed that she did not
write the poem, and tried to throw the
odium of the authorship upon Carleton.
The neighbor was indignant at this as he
favored Carleton, and made the rather
strong assertion that Miss f. was none too
good to write it. Here Rogers lost his
temper, and his neighbor missed his, and
both of them were laying themselves out

find that the entire contents Of the paper
package, with the exception of tritle

and Immediately started for home. The
neighbor was appropriately panied by the
accident, but was of the private opinion
that It was sort of judgment from Heaven
on Rogers, but whether for stopping to
talk when carrying ice,cream, or for his
literary views, he could not tell. When
he got home he told his wife about it, and
sat down to pull off his boots Then he
bounded up and shot one hand behind
him, and howled; and shot the other hand
back there and hOwled again. Then he
jumped around and tore away at his coat
which was a new dress pattern, and hurled
IN remarks about religion and business,
and all the while that coat wept great
tears of vanilla, and dropped them on the
furniture and wall paper and buried them
in the carpet, and dashed them against
the blanched cheeks of the astonished
wife. 1t was some fifteen minutes before
she found out that in his zeal for Carleton
he had unconsciously damned his pack

\ SIMPLE REMEDY.-Dr. Blower, of
Liverpool, states that he has, for the past
twenty years, employed compressed sponge
very successfully in the treatment of in
growing nails. His method is to render
the sponge compact by wetting, and then
tying it tightly until it is thoroughly dry
\ bit of the sponge, in size less than
grain Of rice, is placed under th6..nail, and
secured by strips of ad hesive plaster. In
this way the point of the nail is kept up
from the toe until the surrounding soft
parts are restored to their normal con-
dition by appropriate means. OF course
there is no pain in this remedy, and its
application requires only ordinary skill.
