re- Piscataquis Grange, Maine, at

supper, consisting of baked beans,
buildings, corn bread and pumpkin

Poultry for Farmers.

Mr. w. Altee Burbee writes as fol-
lsws in the American Fancier's Ga
sette:-''It has generally been believed
by farmers, aud the belief is still pre-
valent, that it is ridiculous to make
poultry pay such enormous profits as
are claimed for it; they laugh at the
idea OF 100 per cent. profit, yet even
more than that can be obtained from
poultry breeding. 1t would. no
doubt, be preposterous to say so, un-
less proof endorses the statement,
but facts substantiate it, and some of
the largest and best breeders show,
year after year. that these present re-
suits can be obtained. What would
some of our farmers say if they were
told that poultry pays as much as
500 per cent? The French have
reached to a greater knowledge of
successful poultry raising than any
other nation; and they claim this i'm
mense profit, and there is not the
slightest doubt but that their large
profit is no exaggerated statement,
but reality. In this country it is
known that poultry can be made to
pay at least 200 per cent, and we
dare say that even larger result
may be obtained. Now farmers
what do you say to this? Is there
not some inaucement to pay greater
attention to this hitherto compare.
lively neglected branch of rural in
dustry2 We are confident that you
can realize more profit from poultry
raising. provided you attend to them
properly, than from anything on
your farm. Be wise and begin this
Fall by Kidding yourselves of your
mougrels, and commence with some

ESTATE-TURGERsoN.

In Probate Grant County Court. Probate Once,

Of the Proof and Probate of the last will and tee.
lament OF Ole Turgerson, deceased. late of the
county of Grant.

day of March, A. ID. 1873. at one O'Clock p. IN.

Shooting Horses.

A writer in the New York Herald
states some facts about how horses
should be shod, which are worthy
the consideration of blacksmiths. and
farmers as well:
Most of the horseshoers of the
country prepare the foot, fit shoe
and secure it to the hoof 10 the same
manner that h wood butcher fits a
shoe to an old wood or OK sled The
mechanism of a horses hoot is one of
the most wonderful und ingenious
structures that can be found in all the
works OF the Creator. Beneath and
in rear of every foot there is a frog,
which is tough and elastic pad for
preventing injury to the animal
whenever he plants his foot on any
hard substance. Large rolls or cyl.
inders of india rubber are placed be-
meath railroad cars to prevent injury
to any part of the car or the cargo
with which it is loaded The frog
beneath the foot of horse is design
ed TO subserve similar purpose. But
the manner 10 which most horses are
shod, lifts them up, as it were, on
short suits, so that the frogs cannot
perform their appropriate functions.
If we look carefully at q young horse
when be is trotting or running, it
will be perceived that every foot is
brought down to the ground in such q
manner that the frog receives tie
powerful blow. By this means all
injury TO the animal is avoided.
Science teaches US to permit the frog
to develop and expand downward
But most blacksmiths seem to think
that the all-wise Creator made mis-
take when he formed the hoofs OF
borses. Hence they fall at the frogs
with red-hot burning irons, with
edge tools and with any other appl-
anoes tnat will enable them to re-
move this extrane0us excrescence.
Illustrious ninnies Why not shave
all the rrugh, adipose tissue beneath
their owa heels, aud leave the bare
bones to rest on plates Of iron inside
Of their own boots and shoes?

How TO CURE SCRATCHES IN
HORSES. First cleanse the heels we'll
from all dirt and other foreign mat
ter with strong suds made by
means of carbolic soap and warm
water. This done, dry the parts well
and be careful to remove the soapy
matter thoroughly from the sore, in
order to prevent the collection OF
dirt. Then dress the heels with q
lotion composed of carbolic acid, one
part; cold water, forty parts, three
times day. In one-quarter of an
hour after using the lotion, rub over
the diseased surface with glycerine,
and keep the parts supple with it.
Give him, mixed in his feet of grain,
night and morning, one and half
ounces of liquor arsenicalis each time
and continue this treatment for a
time after his heels have dried up. -
