A CERTAIN publisher in this city gets
his wife to read the manuscripts of juve-

he accepts it. He argues that his little

tASheS for Cattle.

The Live Stock Journal has = cor
respondent who found his cattle given
to the habit Of eating wool, chewing
bones, &c. They became thin in aesh,
refused to eat hay, and presented .
sickly appearance. He had an im-
preston that their food lacked the
constituents for making bone, aud his
usighbors used bone meal without no.
ticing any good results whatever. At
last he put about four bushels of leach.
ed ashes in his barnyard, and threw
out to them . shoveiful each day.
They all ate With evident relish. A.
ter turning them out to pasture, he
put one peck Of dry ashes per week on
the ground in the pasture. They ate
it all, and gn.wed the grass where it
had been lying. The cattle began to
improve. gaining flesh and looking bet
ter than they had for several years.
He says this morbid appearance was
unnoticed years ago, from the fact that
the ground was new and ashy from the
burning of the wood and land clearings
Since this discovery, he gives one
quart of ashes mixed With one quart Of
salt, to twelve head Of cattle about once
q week.

SoMETH1Na NEW ABOUT Corn
An experienced and successful corn
grower tells US that he produces uni
form, good ears of corn in his fields by
a method not generally understood.
The weather is sometimes dry when
the corn is filling, at least there are
always some ears caught in this condi-
tion, and the tassels become dry, and
the silk dies, and there is a lack Of
pollen, and as q result there are abor-
tive ears of corn in the field. He says
to prevent this he always plants one
hill ofcorn every dozen rows each way
about three weeks after bis regular
planting. When the dry weather
comes on, the late planted corn has
tho pollsa to furnish to the silk Of the
early planted, and thus does its Office.
tie says in this way replaoted corn is
often blessing; but, whether there il
need Of replanting, or not, his method
is to plant in this way, and he can a.
ways have uniform, good ears in his
6elds.-Indiaua Farmer.

dianopolis. the head center Of the rag
money fanatics who assembled At
Cleveland last winter, in which he
gives bis reasons for favoring third

ter assumes 10 the first place that no
patton is capable of dealing with more
than one issue at time; to day be.
longs to the great struggle before the
law for equali,y-and the question Of
finance must be put aside until that is
settled. Putting out Of sight tho fact
that Grant has shown himself to be
firm hard-mouey man, Mr.. Phillips
believes him to be the only candidate
who can command success, and that
therefore it becomes the duty Of all
republicans to rally around him as the
standard bearer OF the party-to save
it from being completely wrecked and
irretrievably defeatsd.-Press.
