A Texas Cattle Farmer.

The correspondent of the Baltimore
American gives the following, relative to
the "cattle king Of Texas: Captain
King has an enclosed pasture Of 10000
acres. though he owns $4,000 acres OF
land in Nueces and Duval Counties.
The entire stock held by him at the
present time is $4,000 head of cattle,
10000 head Of sheep, and 10, 900 head Of
horses. He Overstocked his enclosed
pasture to such an extent last fall that
he was compelled t. turn a great many
out on the range again, although he sent
1000 head to Kansas, and slaughtered
1000 head more for their hides and tai
low. He disposed annually of about
5000 head of cattle, either by sale or
slaughter. Notwithstanding which his
stock is always stea lily on the increase
He has recently purchased another
ranch in Cameron county, on which he
has 10000 head more of cattle, and at
tached to which are about 10000 acres
of land. He is making extensive exper-
iments in the way of improvement OH
the stock of the State, having imported
for his own Use great many head of the
finest specimens Of Kentucky cattle to
intermix with the native grades" These
experiments are pr,i,eworthv and well
merit the appreciation of the State.

Unity and Harmony Among Farmers.

am we'll aware that this is delicate
subject, and one that needs careful hand
ling; yet it is a fact we'll known to all
of US, that too much jealousy exists
among US as a class. There is not that
free interchange of thought and opinion
which would be of lasting benefit to all
if we would but meet always in friendly
council and strive to learn and instruct
from one another. Th,r. is no person
with common understanding SO igno.
rant but that he or she may impart some
information that will benefit others. II
is the object of this ass .ciation a. !
understand it, to have all take an active
part, either speaking. writing or reading
something by which the members and
others may gaia intelligence. If We
have neighbors who succeed better than
We do ourselves, let Us go learn of them
the secret of their success and if OBJ
tanned in an honorable way let us imi-
tate their example, that We may be as
successful As they.
Lastly, let US all strive to be pa e
makers, ever speaking kindly (if at ail)
of the faults of Others, but prai-ing their
virtuous qualities. Let Us keep the
skeleton Of jealousy from on. own doors
then will We he a happy family, and
this association will grow and prosper
and become mighty union for the pro-
inotion of intelligence, prosperity and
happiness. 0Is F1.,mer.

TO Have Apples Every Yeac.

A correspondent tells three ways of
having apples every year.
/. Take ciOns from q tree in 1873 and
put them into a god thrifty tree, and
do the same in 1874, and you will get
fruit in alternate years.
2. If you cut oft from thrifty trees the
growth of 1873 the last of June, leaving
three or four buds that would come out
in 1874, you would force out the next
years buds, and gain one year.
3. If you remove all the blossoms on
one-half of your trees in the Tearing
year you will have fruit on that half the
odd year. These things l have done
successfully. l have now in bearing the
Victory apple of the odd year produced
in this way next year the cions Of the
last year will bear in the regular.

FLAX rs. cAi,sA Bsss.


I was pleased to see in the Edvmer Of
December q, an article from the pen Of
Hon. Josiah Copley, calling attention to
some of the uses which the FAX fibel
may be applied in the manufacture Of
paper sacks, barrels, etc. The demand
is rapidly increasing, and for many pur.
poses, it is considered superior to any
other fiber. The demand for the oil il
also increasing, and large quantities Of
seeds are still imported and.manufactur-
ed in eastern cities. With these increas
ing demands for the seed and fibre. flaz
must be . paying crop; but it may bt
even more valuable, indirectly - .
means of defending other crops against
the depredations Of the chinch bug.
l believe the chinch never feeds upon
fax; and have never known it to pas.
through field or strip of fax. The pas,
season it has been very destructive
throughout the country; yet, several
parties report having small grain OF
ground where fax was grown last yeal
and it was not damaged by the bugs
while the grain on ground adjoining va.
nearly or quite ruined.
Mr.. Alfred Gray, our industrious Sec
Rotary of the Board of Agriculture ha.
been following up this line of inquiry
and says he gets substantially the same
reports. I do not think We have suffic
lent data as yet-at least / have not
Tor asserting that we can successfully
fight the chinch-bug with fax, but
have considerable faith in it; and as il
is matter of great importance to the
farmers of the west, l hope they viii
experiment and report their success. II
the chinch bug will not pass through 8
field of fax, then corn fields planted
near to small grain may be protected by
sowing strip Of fax between. If they
will not work in field the next year
after fax crop is taken of, we eau
can alternate by sowing fax one yeal
and wheat the next. But wish to spg
gest still another possible means Of pro
tecting the wheat and other grains BY
sowing little fax seed-say 1 to
quarts per acre, as shall be found te
work best-with the grain. 1t can be put
in early in spring, even with fall wheat
by light narrowing and rolling, <if q
roller can be hadD 80 as not to damage
the grain. Its growth could not mater.
tally iujure sfS crop, and if the seed
ripened it could be easily separated
Some people SOW fax and barley mixed
on the same ground, separate the seed in
cleaning. and claim that it pays better
than sowing either one alone.
If fax is really offensive to the ch:nah
bug, SO they will not stay around it,
why may we not flax" the pests out of
our grain fields entirely? Will the
farmers try this and report success p

Co-ocE2ArIoN.-We have recently
had t. call atteltiJn to several new
phase. of the cooperative movement,
which has done so much in many coun-
tries to induce the industrial class to
economic their means and invest their
savings in mills, mines. factories, and
stores. One of the largest of such
associations (Which illustrates the prin.
cipie admirably, though it can scarcely
be considered a workmans movement) is
the Civil Service Supply Association, Of
London, England. 1t was begun by q
few government clerks who united to
purchase their own tea by the chest and
calicoes by the piece. In six months
just ended, goods to the amount of near
ly S2,OOO,00O were purchased by the
association these goods were retailed at
a gross profit Of about 10 per cent,
showing net result of 2. per cent. on
tile whole, after payment of expenses.
But the remarkable feature about this
associated trading is, that these large
operations sprung from and were trans
acted on an original capital of $40, $50.
The profit of 8. per cent. on $4,000
600 is 1000, equivalent to more than
500 per cent. on the original stock of
the association. It would be difficult to
find better illustration of the, value of
small profits, quick returns. and prompt
payments than this.-Scieaiifc Amerioan.

MUFFIN OF STALE BREADTH every
family bread is apt to accumulate, and
the good economist always manages to
dispose of it in some useful way before
i. moulds. The following recipe teaches
the easiest way Of making such dispo-
s:tion and will be found reliable: Take
a quart loaf of bread, slice it, and put it
in bowl and pour on sufficient water to
cover it and let it stand until we'll soaked /;
then press the water from it and mash
the bread until no Jumps remain. Add
two thoroughly beaten eggs, 2 table
spoonfuls OF -four, l of melted butter or
lard, little salt, very small portion of
soda (unless tho bread or milk is sour.
when more will be required), and milk
enough to make it into stiff batter,
Bake in muffin rings or drop from a
spoon upon a griddle.
