The farmers of the west have
mostly confined their experiments in
raising the grasses to the two kinds,
timothy and red clover. In addition
to these, the Kentucky blue grass has
obtained a good hold unintentional-
ly, and is a valuable crop for pastur-
age. Would it not be wise to extend
our researches to other grasses and
ascertain their value whether grown
together or separately. 1t is claimed
by many that we cannot occupy the
whole surface with but one or two
kinds of grass, and that the intro
duction of other varieties will not in
terfere with the growth of those al
ready in possession, but will simply
add so much to the total product.
# this be true, and for pastures it
may be the case, it would seem to be
our best policy to completely possess
the soil-every inch of it-evcn if
for that purpose we must add the
seeds Of every known valuable grass.
There are many varieties that are
highly esteemed where they have
been tested and yet are almost UNI
known in the west. We are not slow
to test the merits of grain, fruits, veg
etables, and seeds for which merit is
claimed, but seem to have been qnite
indifferent to the value Of grasses
which would probably add greatly to
our prodacts. We hope that some Of
our enterprising farmers will expert
ment in the direction indicated-Ear-

I was brought up says a writer in
the Boston CuItivat0r, to regard
crows as an enemy to the farmer;
and my early experience was in full
accord with my early education.
Many a time, when boy, my father
used to send me to the fields to plant
over where the crows had pulled the
corn. It was disagreeable work for
me, and often wished all the crows
were destroyed. put up Irvine and
images in abundance, but they were
of little use, and the planting over
went on all the same. But since
then, thanks to some one whose
name is unknown to me, a remedy,
safe and sure, has been discovered
for all this trouble, and the days of
destruction by crows have, from me,
forever passed away. Year after
year 1 have planted corn; the crows
visit the fields, but they come not to
destroy; the corn is unmolested; the
crows are preservers instead of de-
stroyers Of the crop; they get the
worms, and leave the corn; they are
friends, not enemies, of the farmer,
now; and write this because some
people seem to cherish the old-time
hatred of the crows, while the occa-
sion for it long since passed away.
They still hunt, trap, and by all pos
aihlo means aAek Ia DESTROY crows
This seems to me an unwise policy
for farmers. For Eve or ten cents q
year he csn obtain tar enough to
apply to Ill the corn he wants to
plant; it Will take but few minutes
to apply it, and it is certain to pre-.
vent the depredations of crows. 1t
is q well-known fact that crows de-
stroy immense numbers Of grubs and
Buchanan County bulletin. [volume] (Independence, Iowa) 1869-1891, 1874-07-17

worms, and thus they do valuable
service for the farmer, and, as they
keep almost entirely away from
buildings, they create no disturbance
and make no trouble. For my part
/ would rather have flock Of crows
on my farm, or in my garden, or
among my fruit trees, than an equal
number Of robin redbreasts-beauti-
full, musical, and poetic as that bird
is said to be. Crows do great deal
ofgood, and can very easily be pre-
vented from doing any harm. So |
say tar the seed-corn and let the
crows live. Do not wantonly de-
stroy any life, and never kill any
bird merely because you are prejudic-
ed against it.

The following sensible instructions
about making and handling butter are
given by person who is thoroughly
aware Of the Importance which should
attach to the manufacture Of this ar
ticle.
First.-Be particular to take the
cream off at the proper time and do
not allow it to stand too long before
churning, which should be done in the
cool of the day, not failing to work
out all the buttermilk while it is yet
hard, after which let it be thoroughly
worked in clear cold water until it
leaves the water colorless.
Se,ond.-A proper use of the right
kind of salt demands the most careful
attention, for too much destroys the
sweet and delicate flavor, and an in
sufficiency is attended with well known
results. None should be used but
Ashton's Liverpool Dairy, which is
free from carbonate of lime and all
impurities common to domestic salt,
which are fatal to the safe preserva-
ton of butter and meats.
7hird.-The kind of packages to be
used also deserves important men,
ton. Secondhand ones should be
invariably avoided, for conclusions
as to cleanliness are commonly jump
ed at, and while jars and pals gener-
ally meet with ready sale to the local
trade, they are entirely neglected by
shippers, whose competition has a
wholesome effect, and when the mar
ket is well stocked, such packages are
dull sale.
+ All things considered, the New
York covered tubs and covered ash
pals, for present use, are preferable,
but if it is desired to be well kept for
any length of time, tight, well bound
oak butter firkins are indispensable.
Be careful to pack the butter solid,
completely filling the package, keep
ing the different shades of color sep
arate, for streaked butter must be
avoided. Spread piece of clean new
bleached cotton-cloth, dipped in brine,
over it neatly, tucking in at the edg-
es. so that when it is removed it will
present an inviting appearance to
the buyer.
Packages before filling should be
we'll soaked in strong brine, to neu-
tralize an acidity in the wood, and
prevent its tendency to faint the but
ter.
AS triling as these points may
seem, they are all important to the
desired end, and butter thus handled
and kept in cool dry place till sent
to market, always commands the high
est market price, affording pleasure
to consignee, and satisfaction to the
shipper, while neglect and inditfer-
ence are detrimental to all interests
and fruitful source Of unwarrantcd
complaint. If it becomes heated its
delicate flavor is lost, so it is advis-
able to ship by express during hot
weather.

Breaking Colts in Kentucky.
[ From the Dayton Journal

TOll tuc Yum JOuTHolJ
When in Kentucky last week, we
saw two-year old colt broke-dead
broke-in a half hour, so that he
worked as amiable as trained horse.
The colt had never been bridled.
He was attached to a curriculc called
a "break-dray," and put through as
tonishingly quick. The break-dray
is nothing more than strong broad
tread dray, with. long shafts, the tail
admitted, and spring seat between
the wheels. The harness was strong,
and so arranged over the hips as to
prevent the possibility of high kick
ing and the colt was hitched so far
from the dray that his heels could not
possibly hit the driver. The process
Of hitching was of course very deli
cate, as colt is excessively ticklish,
and is apt to let his heels fly awk-
wardly. All being ready, one man
held the colt, and another took the
seat and reins. The colt was then
let 60 to plunge as he pleased. The
break-dray-which was so broad that
upsetting seemed out of the question
was pushed upon the colt, and the
colt pushed sideways until he started.
A few plunges settled him; he went
as he pleased; up hill and down hill,
and so on, until he struck a sober
trot, and was thoroughly broke. The
confused and bewildered look of that
colt was pitifully amusing. Mr.. Bob
Strader, was giving directions, and
upon one Of the breakers raising his
hand to slap the colt to urge him, Mr..
Strader said: Don't do that. New
er strike colt when breaking him.
Push him sideways, or any way. Let
him go just where he will and how
he will. Let him fall down if he
will, but don't strike him." When
the colt was taken out of the shafts,
he was as wet as If he had been in
the water, and a child conld have
handled him. He had. not been
struck blow. The dray we believe
was invented by Mr.. Strader.

The heaviest item of expense in
f;.rming-the heaviest, considering
the profit accruing, is probably that
Of fencing. In many cases fences
cost more than the lands. The fem
ces of the country are valued at one
thousand eight hundred million of
dollars; and year by year, nearly one
hundred millions Of dollars are ex-
pended to keep the fences efficient.
In Illinois not less than $4,000, 900
have been invested in fencing: and
not less than $l75,0OO are annually
expended to keep these "metes and
bounds" in repair. If stringent fem
cling laws had been adopted in the
State of Nebraska, the settlement of
the country would have been much
retarded. But law adapted to the
needs ofthe country has been wisely
adopted. This law relieves the set
tier at the time when he needs all his
money for other improvements, from
the necessity ofinvesting large sum
in the construction Of lumber fences.
The law throws upon every owner of
livestock, the onus of keeping his
stock from straying on cultivated
lands Of his ncighbors. The farmer
need not build fences around his cul-
tivated fields, for horses, cattle and
sheep are "fenced out" by law. The
stock when|pastured have to be herd
ed; but the cost of herding is not a
1.-THE of what fencing would be. Fen
cling goes ON, of course, in Nebraska;
but it is live and not dead fences
which are constructed. All through
the settled portions Of the State hedge
rows are appearing and thriving.
The hedge plants most used are the
honey locust, the Usage orange and
the white willow. In some places
long hcdge-rows of peach trees, from
which, frequently, good crops are
gathered, may be seen, and the peach
seems to make as good fence as the
white willow.-G CORRESPONDENT.

MANY valuable animals arc lost by
hoven OPP bloat, which might be pre-
vented with little care. In the first
place no creature should be allowed
to fill the stomach with new grass
when first turned out, but should be
allowed slight feed each day until
fully accustomed to it. Second, eve
ny animal when turned to grass shonld
have constant supply of satin some
place easily accessible. These precau-
tons will save a great deal oftrouble,
and often the lives of valuable ami
mails.

to burrow under his old rubbish heaps
and badly-constructed stable-floors !;
but he avoids all places where he is
exposed to the spade or shortgun.
Any one can have rats if he wishes,
for pile Of old boards, barrels, or q
heap Of stone, will invite them to you.
l once thought a good intermediary
in order to be rid Of them but expe-
rience proved that to be folly. A
good clean, sharp spade, and clean
premises are worth more than doz-
en- ratterriers in the country, have
seen the times when / would not part
with good ratter for fifty dollars,
for l supposed them to be the charm
that kept the rats off the farm; but
since l have learned a cheaper meth
cd, / would not take the best dog as
q gift, much preferring to give the
waste of the kitchen to the chickens,
for in that is one of the secrets of a
full supply Of eggs.
Rats infest corn in the shock, for
they make their burrows under the
shocks. A rail-crib is also a good
place for them, as they are safe from
both dogs and spades. They used to
annoy me about the stables but l
made the floors of solid clay, well
packed down, upon which the plank
was laid, and no rat gets under this
planking. The urine tends to pre-
serve the plank, ard, after eight years
use, they have not been replaced, and
look as though they wonld lastsever-
al years longer. There is not rat
about the stable, nor arat-dog to wor-
ny them if there was. Then the hog
pen is up two feet from the ground,
which has spoiled all their hiding
places, and we are rid Of them. SO
much for rats, in which an ounce OF
prevention is worth a pond of cure.
