The Quantity of Salt for s,oc,,

While certain amount of salt is absolute
ly necessary for the health of stock, it by no
means follows that its indiscriminate use is
either needful or safe. On the contrary, salt
used in excessive quantities is highly danger
GUS. 1t then acts upon the stomach and in
testines as an irritant poison, and cases of
death have occurred through per hitting cat
tie and hogs to consume too much of it,
When stock are allowed free access to it, they
will take small quantity very often, but if
denied frequent supply, they become raven
Gus for it. and are in danger of eating it to
excess. The safest way is to use small
quantity regularly in the food; a quarter of
an ounce daily being sufficient for a COW Or a
horse, and fourth of that quantity for hog
or sheep. If stock are sailed Orce week,
no more than one ounce at time should be
given to a COW, and quarter of an ounce to
sheep or hog. Il should also be given in such
manner that no animal should eat more than
its share. 1t may be given scattered thinly
in the eating though with more safety than in
any other way, excepting when it is mixed
with the feed. Regularity in its use is the
most conductive to the health of the cattle.
We find 1t necessary to give this caution be-
cause some of our readers have been led to
suppose, very enormously. that as salt is a
good thing, stock cannot have too much Of

Mushroom Culture in Tan.

IL may be of interest to some of your read
ers to know that mushrooms can be grown in
tan. have grown them with great success
for three successive years, in tan which had
beenused for hunters to trample on through
the summer, and of course there is some of
their manure Incorporated with the tan. The
general heat which the tan gives renders it
one of the best materials that can be used for
the growth of mushrooms. When well beat
en- together with the horse Jung, and in suffi-
cient quantity, find the mixture more pro-
ductive and lasting than the horse dung
alone. The beds are, in fact, masses Of
clumps, with as many as from twenty to fifty
in each, which could be, and were etten taken
up whole. Some may ask, Does not tan pro-
duce unwholesome fungi? With me, and
used as stated there need be no fears of this.
have not found one spurious one. As to
flavor. they were pronounced by those who
partook of them to be very savory and deli
cate. 1t must not be inferred that I recon-
mend tan alone, but let quantity be put in
loose box, or any other suitable place where
horse is shut up for time. so that its ma
nure is well inc 1rporated with the tan, and
use it when in a sood frable state, neither
wet nor dry; if too wet the spawn will not
run SO well, and if too dry the beds will not
keep in bearing SO long My experience leads
me tC think that tan will be much sought
after when its qualities are more known to
the mushroom growers, for believe it to be
superior to all droppngs.-Charles Penford

Recreation for Farmers.

We lately read in an agricultural journal
the recommendation to farmers, to take a
few days of rest and recreation after harvest,
by going fishing. This is good, but we
propose something better. We like recrea-
ton, but we never could get time to 90
fishing, nor could we discover the great fas-
cination in holding a pole and cord in the
water for hours, with the hope of jerking
out occasionally small animal with a sharp
hook in its tender mouth. Is there not a
better way for farmers to enjoy themselves
for Q few days after harvest? If they and
their children have any taste for science,
sketching, and making natural history col
lections, let them hitch the horses 10 the
carriage and take a jaunt 10 the widest
woods, rocks, and ravines for this purpose.
Collecting materials, pressing and drying
plants, sketching trees with twisted trunks
and roots, or wild rock scenery; securing
the roots OF wild flowers for removal to the
garden or uoor-way,-in all these and many
other amusements of the kind, there is
great deal of intellectual fascination. Do YOU
say you have no taste for such things? Then
we are sorry for this great vacuum in life's
epjoyments. But the taste may be cultivated.
1t is too valuable to leave undeveloped.
There is not one person IN ten who has not a
real or latent taste for them. Examine and
study the beauty of natural scenery, and in a
little while you will begin to admire it Use
a microscope on the minute and beautiful
parts of plants, flowers and insects, and you
will soon find an inexhaustible fund of interest
and enjoyment. If you can make collections
OF shells, minerals, insects, &C., you will Sc
cure permanent record of your rambles, as
well as museum OF scientific value. This is
a kind OF recreation that gives permanent en-
joyment, not found in jolly and senseless par
ties and throngs.-Country Gentleman.

THE FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
Clicked Cattle.

In looking over the last number of your
truly valuable paper, my eyes CHANGED to rest
upon the article upon the first page, headed
"Choked Cattle" The reading of the article
led me to communicate for your columns the
following, which may be of interest to many
peosle raising or owning stock. | will COM
municate the information 1 wish to impart
by relating chapter of my own experience
on the subject of choked cattle.
Some years ago owned beautiful and
highly valued Ayshsre COW. One day after
feeding her with but carrots, l discovered
that she was choked and badly swollen and
as l thought, in very critical condition. l
Immediately called man much used to
handling cattle to assist me. We tried all the
methods usually Iesorted to in such cases, but
without success. She continued TO swell till
it was deemed necessary to tap the animal.
This was done with common knife blade
just forward of the hip joint. The relief was
only for few minutes, All known eXpedi-
ents having failed, it was decided to butcher
the COW, and the man went for his knife. In
a short time he returned with his knife, but
bringing also a piece of tarred rope obtained
at store, with which he proposed to try one
more experiment before taking Life. The
rope was about four feet long and an inch
and quarter thick. The rope was prepared
as follows: A small cord, like common fish
line, was wound tight and snug about the
rope from about half an inch from one end,
covering about half an inch of the rope and
fastened by being drawn under, in the usual
way. The eLd of the rope being cut square,
was then carefully picked up with pointed
instrument till it was soft like hair brush.
and laid over the winding so as to protect the
throat of the animal. The rope was then
thoroughly slushed or creased with lard or
soft grease, when it was ready for use. With

Sulphur for Fowls.

There is no remedy and assistant so easily
and cheaply obtained, so harmless to the
fowls, or so satisfactory in its result as sui
phur 1t being ia the system of animals to a
small degree, there is a greater affinity for it
than there otherwise would be. 1t can be
administered to the fowls by having it in a
small box, so that they can help themselves,
or by mixing it with their feed once a week,
or as often as there are indications of vermin.
Penetrating, as it Goes to every part of the
system, the parasites are quickly aud surely
destroyed. Also gapes are said to be pre-
vented in chickens. Fowls need it more
than most animals, their feathers containing
between four and five per cent of sulphur.
Their eggs also, have small quantity, which
is noticed by the discoloring of a silver spoon
when it comes in contact with boiled egg.
Applied externally to the fowls when on the
nest, to the nest itself, or mixed with the soil
in the busting box, it is equally efficacious in
destroying vermine. To be used as fumi-
gator of buildings, ii is necessary to remove
the fowls, close the room or housA, mix lit
tie saltpetre with the sulphur, in an iron YES
sci, and apply match to the mixture. This
should be done in the morning, and the
doors and windows opened in the afternoon
for thorough ventilation. Lard mixed
with sulphur in proper proportions and ap-
piled as often as it is necessary to the feath-
ers or the neck and back of young and old
turkeys is very good safeguard against the
ravages OF foXes.-Poultry World.

Observation-Disclosures.

Below give your readers a recipe for
grease or scratches-what know from actu-
al trial to be the best, SIMPLEST and CHEAPEST
Il do not agree with DIR. VIM. Horne): A
few thin shavins OF Buchan's carbolic soap.
dissolved in spoonful of warm water.
applied with small piece OF sponge, after the
long hair has been cut off and the sore thor
oughly cleansed with warm water. The
above ia sufficient for two feet, one appca-
ton. Three applications a day are sufficient,
and in week or ten days a cure will be eff
fected. My mare was dead lame, and 1 cured
her in weeks time. No physic need be
taken. The blood is not out of order, and
the disease is brought on by filthy stables, or
mud and bad grooming, want of care, &c.
Carbolic acid and carbolc soap are my spe-
cihcs, where stock is concerned. My cure
Iof toothache Isl small drop OF carbolc acid
on raw cotton, placed in the hollow tooth
care being taken not to swallow the saliva,
anu not 10 touch any portion of the mouth,
DIS IL VIII take the skin off. In fifteen minutes
OF less, lhe ache is cured forever in that tooth.
Ii the above is useful, you are welcome to
use 1t as you see fit; and will onlv add that
for bruises, sore backs and CALLED shoulders
if carbolic soap is used, or the acid nn;ol,
cure is always effected. And for sooh u,
sheep, used this spring one quart of hot wa
ter to an ounce of caIbolic soap, dissolved
and applied when cold with sponge to FIVE
sheep. l went over the whole flock, So in all
beginning at their noses and sponging them
al over. see no appearance of scab in the
flock at this writing. Annapolis, Nd, Ja.ly

POETRY.
NV Vanished Past.

will write on the tomb of my vanished past
This is the 'nevermore;"
Here lies the sunshine too bright to last,
This was the golden shore.
This was the land of the poets song,
This was the artists dream;
Here were the flowers love dwelt among,
Here was life's farest CLEAN;
This was heaven come down below,
And in il was left Gods smile;
Yet now must the green grass over it grow,
1t lived such a little while
Such little while, like an island bright,
That has risen far out at sea-
Which on some morrow we find the night
Has changed to memory.
"a memory mine, one that sadly thrills;
Aud otttimes YEARLY pray
That it may again, if it be Gods will,
Come back to my life some day.
But it cannot come oh, my dead, dead PAST,
You are silent forever and still;
But the sunset glories that fade so fast
Shall arise DER the top of the hill
And I'll touch the stone with gentle hand,
And train DER it flowers fair,
For think, when L wake in that other land,
Perhaps you will meet me there.

What Kills the Babies.


In an article in the Science of Health. one
cause of the high rate of infant mortality is
pointed out. Many heads of families appear
to imagine that it would not be respectable"
nor "genteel," if they fed their babies on
plain and wholesome food. The death-rate
among infants in the cities of the United
Kingdom is low,not because of good sewerage
and Clearly kept streets, but is very largely
due to the fact that children are brought up
on plain, simple, nutritious diet. Among the
nobility of the three Kingdoms, children are
fed upon such plain and Wholesome food as the
operatives, artisans and traders of New York
and other American cities would net allow to
be placed on their tables. Infants and young
children are fed upon such plain and whole
some food as the operatives, artisans and
traders of New York and other American
cities would not allow to be placed on their
tables. Infants and young children, in the
families of the aristocracy and wealthy man.
ufacturing and commercial classes of Great
Britain aud Ireland, are seldom, or never, al
lowed to eat flesh in any form. They are
chiefly fed upon faIinaceous food and milk
Oatmeal porridge, mush and milk, bread and
milk, potatoes and milk, form the principal
food for children among the rich and upper
ten thousand"'0f England, Ireland and Scot
land.
This is one of the most necessary reforms
demanded in the rearing of children in, the
United States. Plain and wholesome food
ought to take the place OF beef, sausages, pies
ard pastry, as food for infants.
By adopting simple and nutritious food for
children, the mortality among those under
five years of age might be Immediately re-
duced fully fifty per cent.
Babies are killed directly and Indirectly by
drugs. II mothers and nurses could learn to
refrain from giving drugs to their infants Cor
every cause and no cause, a fertile source of
infant mortality would be removed. At pres
ent it is the habit to have recourse to drugs
and patent medicines for every fancied all
ment of an infant Where tepid bath or
warm outward application to the stomach
would allay an infants pains without injur-
ing its internal organs and destroying its
health, the mother or nurse seems to think
any remedy of this kind too troublesome, and
preferssome noxous syrup or other prepare
ton from the drug store. which Can be given
to baby by the teaspoonful, regardless of
consequences.
