COAL for swine.

Judge Cation, of Illinois, noted
hog. raiser, says, in the Prairie Farmer:
II have for many years been in the
habit Of feeding my hogs with an
abundance of our common bituminous
coal, preferring the poorest, or that
which contains large amount Of sui
phur and iron, and [ think with the
happiest results. Let farmer who
has never tried it, throw in lump of
coal as large as his fist, and he will be
surprised to see the hog leave the corn
and crunch the coal, as if it were the
most luscious morsel. Sulphur has
long been known as a valuable reme-
dial agent for hogs, and iron is a well
known tonic, acting specifically upon
the blood, thickening and strengthen
ing it. Here, then, the hog, by eat
ing the coal, gets other important
elements besides the carbon. | have
never known a hog we'll supplied with
this coal to be sick or off his feed for a
single day, and although / cannot give
figures showing actual results of careful
experiments to proveit, believe hogs
thus supplied will eat more and assim-
ilate their food better, will make ap
preciably more pork, with given
amount of corn, than those which are
without it. At least, l am well salts
fed with the way in which my hogs
thrive-grow and fatten-under this
treatment. Coal is cheap, and may
be tried at little expense. Charcoal
is nearly, if not quite, as good as coal
for hogs.

Good Points Of a Cow.

l. Youth. A COW is in her prime
at from four to SIX years, and the best
paying time to by is just after the birth
of her second or third calf.
2. Prominence and fullness OF
milk veins, and velvety softness Of
skin. The milk veins run down on
either side of the animal toward the
udders and are easily perceptible to
the eye, or can be readily found by
pressure Of the hand, if the animal is
not over fat. The skin should be soft
and mellow, not hard, rough and
''staring."
8. Symmetry, fulIness and soft
ness of the udder. 1t tshould be broad
well spread out, projecting behind the
legs, and also reaching under the
belly. There should be softness and
thinness to the touch, and an absence
of feshiness and thickness.
4. Perfect number and condition of
teats. If one teat is wanting, about
fourth less milk will be the result. A
cows udder, is not, as some suppose,
barrel with four taps, but is divided
into four different compartments, call.
ed "milk glands" each of which has
its own tap or teat. It is only impor.
tant that the full number of teats be
present and in working order, but it
is desirable that they do well placed,
not crowded together, but pretty far
and uniformly apart rather long and
; all pointing out and down
wards; equal in size and even appear
ance.
5. Docility and quietness of dispo
sition. These are indicated by large,
mild and clear eyes and an air Of con,
tentment generally. A COW that is
quiet and contented feeds at ease,
chews her cud with entire satisfaction,
and will secrete and yield more milk
than any restless and turbulent ami.
NAL, having similar milking charac.
teristics in other respects.

Holsteisl Cattle.

Isaac Augur, agent Of the West
Pittsfeld, Mass, Shakers, writes to
the New England Farmer thus:
Having heard, from time to time,
comments through the public Journals
and verbally, some in favor and some
opposed, l offer few remarks which
have grown out of actual experience
concerning the merit of this noted
stock during the past eighteen months.
Having owned two bulls and two cows,
thoroughbred, and having seen their
product in milk and butter, | feel able
to say something in their favor.
One COW seven years old in the
spring of 1875, calving March II, has
given, on an average, twenty quarts
per day to. the present date. tested
her milk in butter from the 18th of
June for seven days, durings which
time she made fourteen pounds of nice
butter, with no extra feed and no
more than common pasture.
The second COW, six years old in
the spring of 1875, calved Sept. 22nd,
1875, and after four or five days, her
milk was reserved by itself and set for
cream, after letting the calf suck what
it would three times o day. From
the surplus of surplus of seven days,
/ found, on weighing the butter, thir.
teen pounds of a fine article, and, in
total quantity per day, after three
weeks of the time Of the calf sucking,
she had averaged from twenty.four to
twenty.six quarts per day of milk.
November Oath, 1874, / bought a
thoroughbred imported Holstein bull,
one year old past, and his gain in ten
months is four hundred pounds, max
ing an average of forty pounds per
month"; and not on high feed.
They are a fine growing stock, large,
good feeders, and can say, with all
freedom, that they are, in my estima-
tion, the best for market mixers, but
ter, cheese. oxen and beef Of any
thoroughbred stock now known in our
country. l should be pleased to show
these above samples TO any and all
who may be pleased to call.

SToCK AND SToCKs.-We enter our
protest against the indiscrimate use of
the term "stock." OF late it is ap-
piled to particular kinds Of trees in
way that leads person to suppose the
speaker refers to seedlings or stocks.
The term "stocks," with nurserymen,
is a technical one, implying young
plants (often seedlings), to De budded
or grafted-while the term "stock"
(save where it is used in the singular
Of "stocks"), is general, and is used in
all kinds OF business, to imply stock in
trade. Let us not confound the words.
1t is proper to say "a large stock of
apples or apple trees but never "a
large apple stock" unless We refer to
the size ofan individual apple seeding.
We have frequently heard people in
quire the price of apple stocks, when
they meant apple trees. Don't mix
things, gentlemen.-Eclectic Rurallst.

sulphur Ointment.

The North British Agriculturist
says: Sulphur ointment is generally
prepared by melting one pint of flow
ers of sulphur with four or six of lard,
palm oil or other fatty matter. For
mango, scab, and some of the simpler
infammatory conditions of the skin of
animals, sulphur ointment proves a
soothing dressing; but it is by no means
the most efectual application for the
destruction of those vegetable parasitic
growths popularity known as ringworm.
For such purposes, if sulphur ointment
is used, it is advantageously mixed
with about one part of the dark brown,
impure carbolic acid to six or eight of
sulphur ointment. Silver nitrate, zinc
chloride solution, copper and iron sui
pilates, and other such powerful astrin-
gents and antiseptics, applied carefully
in tolerably concentrated solution,
destroy the vegetable parasite, and
thus prevent the complaint spreading.
In most cases where the bare circular
spots of ringworm FIST show them
selves, they are easily arrested by the
in-rubbing of any common oil or saline
astringent solution, especially if the
animals are not exposed to fresh spores
of the disease usually developed
amongst damp old straw, and particu-
larly prone to occur where barley straw
is chiefly used, whether for food or
litter.

HORSE DENTIsTRY.-A correspond
ent inquiring what he should do for a
horse that had decayed tooth, gets
the following answer in the New York
Tribune: "If your correspondent will
carefully clean out the decay in his
horses teeth down to the pulp cavity,
and will then carefully touch the dental
nerve with pure nitric acid, it will
effectually destroy all pain and fit the
tooth for filling. If the dentine is
very sensitive, first touch it (or pack
the tooth) with crystalized carbOlic
acid. This will blunt all pain in the
dentine fbrils. After the decayed
bone has been removed, fill the tooth
with dentists gutta percha, mixed with
silex, or with an amalgim of tin aud
mercury.

This is more properly called "dila-
ton of the jaw bones" In horses it is
sometimes called "big head;" it is a
bony tumor, in which the interior Of
the bone is absorbed, sometimes leav-
ing mere shell Of bone divided into
cells, containing purulent cheesy mat
ter. This is supposed to be caused by
deficiency of phosphate Of lime in
the food, rendering the bones deficient
in this most important element, and
the following prescription is often given
with good result: Phosphate of lime,
six ounces; powdered golden seal, two
ounces; powdered sassafras, three
ounces; powdered ginger, two ounces;
oatmeal, four pounds; mix. This will
be divided into sixteen parts, one given
in the food every night. This will
have a tendency to restore the missing
elements in the bone. And the gen.
eral diet should be food rich in phos-
pilates You may get your phosphate
of lime by boiling beef bones in lye of
wood ashes, and after it is reduced
fine, wash with water and give a small
quantity daily in food. The first
thing to do surgically is to open itand
let out any matter that it contains.
Having removed the matter, inject the
cavity with weak pyroligneous or weak
carbolic acid. This will cleanse it and
render healing possible. Live Stock

Thos. Meehan, who is good author
ity on the sub hject of botany, says that
farmers sons, who are now receiving
their education, whose future is to be
employed imthe noblest of all occupa-
tions-the tilling of the soil-should
be pretty thoroughly educated in bot
any. 1t is not only one of the most
pleasing and instructive of all the
branches of education, but it is one of
the most useful, particularly to a far
mer, who will find daily and almost
hourly need of it. He is constantly
facing its representatives in some form,
to understand which is frequently of
the utmost Importance. Not a plant,
especially weed, can be grown or OBJ
trude itselfupon his premises but what
will be familiar to him, as much so as
the plants composing the leading cul-
tivated crops. He is thus brought face
to face with well known acquaintance >.
be they friends or otherwise, and will.
give them such a reception as they;
may respectively deserve.

BLACK TONGUE. - The Indiana
Farmer says: "This disease has ap.
peared in few places in the State
among the cattle, and in parts of this
county is proving quite fatal. The
symptoms are inflammation of the
mouth; swelling of the head and face.
Discharge Of bloody saliva, and high
fever marks the first stages. Ulcers
soon appear under and on the sides of
the tongue. Then the throat and neck
swell, and if the disease is not checked,
gangrene ensues and the animal dies.
The disease is said to yield readily to
early and proper treatment. The fol-
lowing has proved very successful:
The animal should be bled from the
neck vein. Give him castor oil, one
pint, to be repeated in ten hours if it
