any druggist. The ailing fowls were
kept apart from those In health, and
after the administration Of this remedy

We tako the calves from the COWS
when SIX days old, and feed them on
two quarts Of new milk three times a
day until they are four weeks old. The
fifth week We gradually reduce the
quantity OF new milk and add skinned
milk, increasing the quantity by the
close OF the week TO three quarts at q
feeding. ALI the new milk given 10 the
calves should be taken from their
mother. From the time they are Eve
weeks until they are three months old
they are fed on porridge prepared rs
follows: Half a pint OF oatmeal, one
gill Of cracked wheat, boiled one hour
in sig quarts OF water in cool weather
a days allowance may be cooked at a
time. To two quarts OF this add two
quarts OF skinned milk, making four
quarts three times a day. The milk
should be warmed to abolt the tenn.
perature OF new milk, ticking care not
to scald it, as II will produce collie. n
calves incline to scour, one or two raw
eggs beaten in theiT milk will generally
effect a cure. re give four quarts Of
the mixture at a feeding until they are
ten wecEs old, then gradually diminish
the Quantity during the next two weeks,
VIXEN they are weRned and turned out
to pasture, From the time they enter
the feeding pens until they leave for
the pasture, there is continually kept
by them a supply OF roots-beets or
potatoes, cut into long thin slices. We
prefer beets, as they prove to be the
most nutritious. When grass cannot
be procured, there should be a oribful
OF early.cut or seoond.crop hay kept by
them. The pens should be kept clean
aud dry; to do this, they must be
cleaned and new bedding put in every
day. The calves show .he success Of
our plan Of feeding, When eleven
weeks old, theif average weight was
$50 pounds. -CultivatoT.

How Grass is Changed to Beet.

The OK is ruminant--and all rumi-
nants masticate their food the Sec
ond time, or, rather, first swallow and
then after some time commence the
process called Eliminating" or popu-
larry called "chewing the cud." Let
us trace this process in the COW.
The tongue first collects a mouthful
Of grass into bundle, when it is nip
ped off by the teeth of the lower jaw
and the grasping power Of the muscu-
lar lips. She does not pause to masti-
cate now, but swallows it whole. 1t
descends to the first stomach or runlen
which is only q storehouse in which
the food is kept until wanted. This
firststomach consists Of four small sub
divisions and the coat is covered with
thousands of little elevations, which
doubtless produce some chemical
change in the newly-received food
From this first stomach the food
passes into the second, which is much
smaller and also very complex in its
structure. It is covered with q multi
tude of small cells, from which it is
called the honey-comb bag. In this
second stomach the food takes the
form Of round, compact masses, which
are returned through the gullet to the
mouth by the muscular action Of the
stomach. Now begins the process of
ruminating, during which she seems
to enjoy the very perfection of animal
bliss. AS each portion Of the food is
properly masticated, it passes direct
from the mouth to the third stomach.
This is accomplished by the closing of
the tube that leads to the first and sec
ond stomachs. The third is very
small and is called manyplus, from
the numerous folds Of which it is COM
posed, arranged like the leaves of a
book. Between these active folds the
food rests q short time, when it is
passed into the fourth or true stomach
where the process of digestion is COM
pleted, and the food passes into the or
ganization.

On Saturday afternoon marriage
ceremony was performed in the
grange meeting at Arcata. Ernest
Page and Eliza Webb were the parties
mainly interested. A feast followed.
The Chico Enterprise says that the
meetings Of the Grange at that place
seem to have lost none of. their ardor
or enthusiasm upon which they were
at first entered upon. They are we'll
attended, and each meeting has its
discussions upon matters very nearly
concerning the agricultural interest
Of the section. Already the influence
Of the Grange has been felt in the di-
rection Of political effect as connected
with farming.
The Danville Contra Costa county,
Grange of the Patrons of Husbandry
numbers nearly a hundred members.
At the meeting on Saturday last a
class of eight candidates were advanc-
ed to the fourth degree, and ten new
applications for membership were re-
ceived. The membership Is already
SO large that the schoolhouse in which
the meetings have been held is found
altogether too small, and a committee
composed of VIM. Lynch, Thos. Flour
ney, Charles Wood, r. o. Baldwin,
d. N. Sherburne, Col. Stone and JON

into consideration and report plan

At q regular meeting of the Hungry

b lie and resolution were unanimously
passed.:
"WHEREAs, Regarding the present
system Of bagging or soaking grain
for market, as practised on the Pacific
Coast, as an enormous tax upon the
labors Of the producers, compelling an
outlay on which they receive no re-
turn, thereby affecting seriously the
individual as we'll as the entire agri-
cultural interests of the State; be It
RESOLVED, That, in consequence of
the present custom we see no prospect
i've benefits, but on the contrary all
that is Objectionable and injurious, we
will give our sanction to the system Of
aggregation, storing and handling
grain which has proved itself to be
most economical, safe and expeditions,
and by the early adoption of which
the farmers of the great grain-produe-
ing States Of the Northwest, though
far removed from the seaboard and

The Tichborne Case.
Its History Epitqnised.
From the New York Tribune,

After the TichbOrne trials, people
must overhaul and revise their ideas
of the impossible. Nothing was ever at
tempted so absurd, SO insane, one may
say, as the scheme of the Austral-
Ian butcher to make himselfa baronet
and millionaire by simply lying. He
had hardly single point to begin
work upon. A young gentleman had
been drowned at sea, who was heir to
q title and q great estate. His friends,
convinced Of his death, gave his hcri-
tage to the next OF kin. His mother,
alone refusing to despair, advertised
for the missing one. The advertise
ment coming to the eyes Of q butcher
In Australia, he resolved to persorate
the lost son. There was not one chance
in q million that he could succeed.
There was no accidental resemblance
Of person, Of manner, or of character.
Mr.. Nasty tried to get drink, once, at
Willard's Hotel, by saying he was
Charles Sumner. But this attempt
was no less ridiculous. The baronet
was a little, delicate, "scrubby" man.
The claimant was q man-mountain,
weighing $50 pounds. The baronet
spoke French more readily than Eng
lish; the claimant did not know one
word Of the language. Sir Roger be-
longed to a widespread family con.
nection, Of which the claimant had
never seen q member. Yet he conf
IDENTIFY sailed for England, and for
seven years fought the desperate fight
which has ended in his conviction as
y felon, with a varying success, which
must always remain wonder TO sue
ceeding ages. His trial has changed
mems opinion as to the worth Of hui
man evidence. Dozens of witnesses,
among whom was Sir Rogers mother,
testified that this was the rightful
heir. Several members Of Parliament
espoused his cause. Popular subscrip-
ton assisted him in his scheme. He
was defeated at last by two things
by his own statement in regard to Mrs.
Radcliffe, which all England cried
could not have been made by man
born gentleman, and by the evidence
Of Lord Bellew, who said he had tat
tooed Sir Roger Tichborne in his boy
hood. Remove these two compare
lively unimportant incidents from the
case, and it is not impossible that the
craziest crime against rank and prop
erty ever attempted might have sue
ceeded, by form of law, in the most
arist0cratic country on earth,

Press Privileges.

Deadheadism can sometimes be car
ried too far. A young lady in Georgia
while attending fair, endeavored to
raise money for the undertaking by
offering to permit male visitors to kiss
her at ten cents q kiss. Everything
proceeded smoothly until the editor OF
q daily came in, and he insisted upon
taking kisses free because he was a
member Of the press. They put him
out. This is probably the same man,
who, when he was married, wanted
the clergyman to take his wedding fee
out in advertising, and gave to bis
bride as q present a. double barrelled
shotgun which he won at rattle in
which he had three deadhead chances.

Why the Red Sea is called Red.

A question that has puzzled scholars
found a solution, some time since, in
the observation OF a submarine diver.
Smiths "Bible Dictionary discusses
learnedly. the name of the Red Sea.
The Dictionary" surmises that it
was derived from the red western
mountains, red coral zoophytes, etc.,
and appears to give little weight to the
real and natural reason which came
under our American notice. On one
occasion the diver observed, while un-
der the sea, that the curious wavering
shadows which cross the lustrous,
golden floor, like Frauenhofer's lines
on the spectrum, began to change and
lose themselves. A purple glory of
intermingled colors darkened the vio-
let curtains of the sea chambers, red
dening all glints and tinges with an
angry fire. Instead Of that lustrous,
golden armament, the thallssphere
darkened into crimson and opal. The
walls grew purple, and the floor was
red as blood, the deep itself purpled
with veinous hues of deoxidized life
currents. The view on the surface was
even more magnificent. The sea at

lowish red of sherry wine. Anon, this
wine color grew indistinct with richer
radiance, as far as the eye could see,
and flashing in the crystalline splendor
Of an Arabian sun, was glorious as
sea Of rose. The dusky red sandstone
hills, with border Of white sand and
green and flowing foliage, like al elab-
orately wrought cup Of Bohemian glass
enameled with brilliant flowers, held
the sparkling liquid petals of that rosy
sea. The surface, on examination,
proved to be covered with thin brick
dust layer of infusoria, slightly Hinged
with orange. Placed in white glass
bottle, this changed into a deep violet,
but the wide surface of the external
sea was Of that magnificent and brill
liant rose-color. It was q new and
pleasing example of the lustrous, ever
varying beauty Of the ocean world. It
was caused by diatomaca, aig@, which
under the microscope revealed elicate
threads gathered in tiny bundles, and
containing rings, blood-disks, Of that
curious coloring matter in tiny tubes.

Gerrit Smith, in recent pronuncia.
mento touching the Civil Rights Bill,
says: iii the passing of it be deinyed,
hell will break Loose again all over the
land, as it did in the days of the fugi-
tive slave Act, when even in tho re.
hottest North slave. hounds were every.
where upon the track Of poor men,
women and children" Every now and
then, some venomous old Abolitionist
oonceIves it to be his special duty to
scream and yell at the unaccountable
delay in the admission of the negro to
the domestic hearth stone, the family
meal and other personal privileges of
the white man. If the negro is not
crowded down upon white domestic
privacy and social privileges at once.
we are told that "hell will break loose. !"
Fortunately this kind of vaticination
IS recognized az the purest description
OF twAddle, and rs there is au almost
sure prospect that this dying wish Of
Chnrles Sumner will never be grnti-
fed. the whole race of civil rights
shriekers will ere long sicken with hope
deferred and pass away with the con.
seriousness that there is in reality q
higher law, which arranges men in
classes and conditions. from which it
Is entirely unnatural to force them.
