Inflammation of the udder, in the
first stage, is amenable to treatment;
after that much trouble is involved
and disappointment contracted. Let
the animal be attended to at once;
administer purgative as-Epsom
suits one pound, ginger ono ounce;
molasses, half o pound, water, one
pint. Next institute lamentations,
which should be applied necessarily
for three or four hours, and at the
close let large hot poultice (com-
posed of three parts brand, and one
part oat meaD be ready for applica-
ton, to cover the affected quarter,
and support it by means of q broad
bandage over the back. When por~
tions become hardened, the following
ointment may be used with smart
friction Soft soap, eight ounces;
mercurial ointment, one ounce; cam
phor ointment, four ounces; extract
of belIadonna, four drachms. Mix,
and apply once day. Or, take of

Agriculture at the Centennial.

The farmers of the West ought to
more fully realize than many of
them do, that good representation
of the agricultural products of the
West at the Centennial Exhibition
next year will not only be gratifying
TO their pride but will be of direct
money value to the West. Never
before has there been so good an OPP
portunity to show to hundreds Of
thousands of the residents of the
Eastern States and the representa-
tives of all the leading foreign coun-
tries, the agricultural capabilities of
of our Western country; what it can
do and what it has done. In most
States some efforts are being made
by State authorities or Agricultural
SOCIETIES to secure collections, but
these must depend finally on indi-
vldual farmers who ought not to for
get that, although the exhibition is
next year, the specimens must be of
this years products.
Farmers should select good speci.
mems of their grains, grasses, ETC., in
the stalk and when threshed, care
fully preserve them until arrange
ments are made for collecting them
by the committees or societies APP
pointed for the purpose. The cost
and troable to a farmer of doing this
would be very small, and would be
repaid by the satisfaction be would
obtain from such collection, even if
it were not needed for the National
Exhibition Western Rural.

Pasturing Meadows.

Many farmers feed their mowings
because they think they cannot spare
the feed just now, even when they
really believe that the next crop os
feed. They feed their mowings as
men sometimes borrow money, just
to enable them to squeeze along till
another pay day comes round, trust
ing that something in the meantime
may possibly turn up that will help
them out of the difficulty. Our
course has been to make no account
of after feed in mowings with ma
chine. Adopting this conrse, we
have been enabled to dispose with ali
inside fences in moving land, and to
some extent, outside fences alsc.
The cost of running over fold with
moving machine and wheel rake
is SO slight that the expcase OF gath
ering the second opis comparative
" small, while if the cows were let
on the moving they would general
ly iniure recently seeded portions, or
destroy other crops in different parts
of the fie d, which, under our system
require no fencing or extra protect
ton whatever.
We have no doubt that enough
CATER teed' may bo left on mowN
ing field TO irjure it for the next
years crop, but usually there is not
enough grows after the first Of Sep
tember to injure the grass if it is cut
or fed close at that time, although
there may be exceptional cases. We
have often cut rowen later than that
date and may do so again. We cut
heavy crop last Fall, just before the
ground froze, and the roots were
nearly all Winter killed, but not be-
cause the grass was cut, for a por>
ton left as an experiment was killed
equally as badly. But against this
one case of Winter killing of grass
that was heavy at the setting In OF
Winter, we have had many other
cases where it was perfectly evident
that late moving was positive IN
jury. This would be particularly
the case on dry knobs that are much
exposed to the cold, drying winds of
Winter and early Spring. We have
several times had young clover
checked severely In this way, and
sometimes badly killed. N II.

Il HE H Err AID
Nebraska in lS75-Cost and Result of
Farming on the Prairies.

The people of Nebraska can now
estimate their position: They have
come through the horn, and out of
the right end. 1t was hard upon
them last year; but, in thegrand his
tory of the settlement of this conti-
nent, what State is there which has
not had to undergo period OF trial?
In this respect, Nebraska has suffered
nothing in comparison with her
Western sisters. The only check
there met with since the State was
settled, was last year; and now, in
the year of 1875, the land is heavy
with bountiful harvest. The follow
ing is an example of what farming
leads to in Nebraska-of the success
which results from agriculture: Gen.
Wright, of Columbus, Ohio, owns
land in Seward county, bought on
10 years credit of the Burlington Il
Missouri River Railroad Company in
Nebraska. He has had 100 acres
broken, cross-plowed, seeded to
wheat. The wheat harvested and
carried to Seward, the market. The
breaking cost So 80 per acre, or $3.50;
the croos- blowing, So 90 per acre. or
5000; the seed cost $50, the sowing,
| $50, the harvesting and carrying to
market, So so per acre or $3.50, maxi
ing all together $3.50. The price of
the land is Sc 90 per acre or 5000,
making with the cost of cultivation
and the cost of the years crop,
$143O. What has General Wright
received: Wheat; 1886 bushels for
which he has had offered 8Joents per
bushel-that is 81, 1853 10; or in year,
within $166 80, the purchase price of
the land, the cost of cultivation, and
the cost of the crop. And General
Wright's success is by no means ex-
traordinary. He is in good section
of the country, but not in better
section than the general. He has
obtained an average of 10 bushels
per acre-the average of the indiffer-
emit farming of the new country,
when, with good farming, the aver
age in Nebraska, might be from 20
to 25 bushels per acre. Farming,
the safest of all pursuits, is therefore
safe in Nebraska. The right man
the good farmer--is in the right place
in Nebraska. The land (cheap and
fertile) is there in abundance. Those
who occupy it have assured the fu-
ture for shemselves and their fami-
lies-that is, if they carry to their
work skill and industry. No man,
therefore, should struggle with
rented land, or with limited or up-
fertile acres. while excellent farms
in Nebraska-are waiting the taking.
In the above example, it will be
observed that General Wright is not
q resident of Nebraska. His work
has to be hired and paid for. The
farmer who is living on his own land
doing his own work, of course, re-
ceives himself the wages for bis
| labor.

What to Do with the Hogs.

All the probabilities now are that
farmers will receive good prices for
their hogs the coming Fall and Win
ter. II is also probable that the
prices for corn will be quite satisfac-
tory. 1t is evident that to many
farmers it is important,in more than
usual degree, to receive as much
money as practicable from their
crops within the next few months
1t is not at all improbable that the
price In tho early part OF the season
will be as high as will be reached at
any time during the Winter. 1t lisa
we'll know fact that flesh can be put
on hogs at less cost in moderate than
in extremely cold weather. 1t is
coming to be generally admitted
that the weight can be increased on
young animals at less cost than on
older ones.
Looking at all these facts and pro-
babllaties, it seems to US it will be
wise to get the hogs, at least the
older ones, in condition for market
early in the season. If they have
good clover pasture we would not
feed them any corn now, bat as soon
as the new corn is fit for the pur.
pose we should feed literally, cutting
the stalks and feeding these with the
corn. If by thus feeding the hogs
kept over, as pigs or breeding sows,
are fat, and marketed by October,
the probabilities are that more profit
will be made than by deferring lib
eral feeding until frost has destroyed
the pasturage and then mark citing
The hogs in January.
After the first lot has been sold, if,
as we expect now. there should be a
good prospect for well sustained
prices, we should feed the early pigs,
except the best which should be
kept for breeding purposes, with
reference to selling them during the
Winter.
AS a practical solution of the much
discussed question weeher it is best
to fatten pigs before they are year
old or to keep them over one Winter
and sell them when from sixteen to
twenty months old, we should sug-
gest that for very many farmers both
courses are advisable; that is, it is
advisable to have some filters of
pigs come early in the Spring, fat
tening them when from eight to ten
months old, and keeping the later lit
ters until the folio wing year. = Vest
