Packed For the other World.

A defunct Celestial was yesterday packed
AMI ticketed through to China heaven by
Mr.. Wilson, the undertaken. The re-
ceptacle for the body was a costly casket,
for that pendant pigtail had swung from
"way-up" head during life. Around the
body was packed an abundance of little
pieces of paper, all spotted with gold, such
as are seen scattered along the way when
the dcfunct Mongolians are carried to the
grave. These pretties are very glittering
and easily blown about by the wind, and
are to attract the attention of the Chinese
devils and give the deceased an oppor-
tunity to escape while his tormentors are
in pursuit of them. The remaining empti-
ness of the casket was filled with pork,
rice, chickens, candies, ETC., upon which
he dear departed Is expected to feed while
journeying to the unknown. He was also
abundantly supplied with Chinese coins
with which to defray the expenses of the
journey. In his mouth was placed
United States ten-cent piece to show that
he came from land of civilization and
as a passport to better seats and society
over there. Lastly, he had fan placed in
his hand with which to cool his heated
brow and Is badge of high rank in the
land OF his ear1bly nativity With all this
preparation he is expected to make rapid
and safe journey to the LAND Of the
Leal" and triumphant entry into the
future Virginia (Nec. Enterpriss.

Cut Feed For Horses.

AN accurate farmer has furnished the
Country Gentle,gaa a statement of his ex-
pertinent with feeding cut feed and meal
to his horses, accompanied with weighing
and mcasuring.--He cuts oats and straw
about an inch long with IA raw-hide cylin-
der machine; and this chopped straw is
then treated with cornIneaE and bran
mixed in about equal quantities rs to
weight, 50 that each horse has about a
-bushel of cut feed and three quarts Of the
meal and bran twice in each day. Some
times hay is cut instead of oat-straw, or
both are mixed. 1t is found that two hun
bred pounds per week Of this mixture of
corn-meal and bran, added to the cut feed,
will keep pair of working horses in the
best condition. This, he is satisfied from
experiment, is less than two-thirds cost of
keeping them on uncut dry and whole
grain. The corn meal alone is not so good
for horses as when mixed with bran. An
excellent meal is made of ground oats.
The fodder is cat by horsepower on stormy
or spare days, and stored in large BINS,
so as to. furnish always surplus on
hand.

Tansy for. Bots in Horses.

A CORRESPONDENT of the Department
of Agriculture says: 1t appears from re-
marks by different writer's that none know
of any certain remedy. l know of a rem
edy that is safe and certain, discovered in
the following way: About thirty years ago
friend lost, by bots, a very fine horse. He
took from the stomach of the dead horse
about gill of bots and brought them to
my office to experiment upon. He made
preparations of every remedy he had heard
of, and put some of them into each. Most
had no effect, few affected them slightly,
but sage-tea more than anything else; that
killed them in fifteen hours. He con-
cluded that he would kill them by using
nitric acid; but it had no more effect on
them than water; the third day they were
as lively as when put in A bunch of
tansy was growing by my Office. He took
handful of that, bruised 1T, added lit
tie water, squeezed out the juice and put
some in; they were dead in one minute.
Since then have given it to every horse
I have seen affected with bots, and have
never known il to fail of giving entire re-
lief. My friend had another horse affect
ed with bots, several years later. He gave
him the tansy- in the morning and a dose
of salts in the evening; the next morning
he took up from the excretions three half
hints of bots -
