Milking IL Drying Cow.

Col. S. D. Harris in the Country
Gentleman, condemns the usual prac-
tice of farmers in leaving a drying
COW alone as soon as the milk shrinks
so as not to fill the bag once q day or
once in two days. He says: "The
little milk which is secreted must be
taken away, or it will work mischief
in the organs of the udder too scri-
GUS to be overlooked by a carefal dai-
ryman. 1t is one of the processes of
nature that when matter Of this
kind is deposited (unlcss it is in
large quantityO it must be soon re-
moved, or it is re. absorbed into the
system; and when matter is once
perfected, as in the case of milk, it
is no longer congonial to the system,
and if not taken away it becomes a
deleterious element for reabsorbtion,
poisoning instead OF feeding the an
imal. Thus, you will find in the I'D
der of COWS thus affected, hard Jumps
near the base of tcats, which are
caused by disqualification of putrid
milk, left there in drying up the
COW the season before, and the COW
will never get over it; but when
these organs encounter any difficult
ty in the season of flush milk, this
lump will be the nuclcs Of inilamma.

sccretod in a house, ready to help
another who is to break in from the
outside. 10 be free from all such
troubles, the COW should be carefully
watched for weeks and months after
the regular milking is stopped, and
the teats tried to see if there is milk
TO be taken away. This operation is
to be performed at irregular inter
walls, so as not to invite regular Sc
erection of milk, until the milk YES

True Politeness.

A poor Arab going through the
desert met with sparkling spring.
Accustomed to blackish water, a
draught from this sweet well in the
wilderness seemed, in his simple
mind a present to the caliph. So he
filed his leather bottle, and after a
weary tramp, laid his humble giftat
his sovereigu's feet. The monarch,
with the magnanimity that may put
many a Christian to blush, called for
Il cup, and filling it drank freely; and
then with a smile thanked the Arab,
and presented him with a reward
The courliers pressed eagerly around
for draught of the wonderful water,
which was regarded as worthy such
a princely acknowledgement. To
their surprise the caliph forbade
them to touch drop. Then after
the simple-heartcd giyer left the roy
al presence, with a new spring of joy
yelling up in his heart, the monarch
his motive of prohibition.
During the long journey the water
in his leather bottle had become i'm
pure and distasteful, but it was an
offering of love, and as such | accept
ed it with pleasure. feared, how
ever that if | allowed another to
taste it, he would not conceal his dis
gust. Therefore it was that | forbade

Marriage Ceremonies.

If pair of citizens agree well en-
ough to hold together, and live long
enough together, they may in time
get pretty well set up in the way of
housekeeping by means of wedding
anniversary presents. At the end of
the first year comes the cotton we'd
ding; at two years comes the paper;
at three the leather at five the wood
en-; at the seventh the friends assem-
bic at the wooden, and at ten comes
the tin. AT twelve the silk and fine
linen; at fifteen the crystal wedding.
At twenty, the friends gather with
their china, and at twenty-five the
married couple that have been true
to their VOWS for quarter of a CEN
fury are rewarded with silver gifts.
From this time on the tokens of es-
teen become rapidly more valuable.
When the thirticth anniversary is
reached they are presented with
pearls; at the fortieth comes the rub
les, and at the fiftieth occurs the glo-
rious golden wedding. Beyond that
time the aged couple are allowed to
enjoy their many gifts in peace. If,
however, by any possibility they
should reach the seyenty-fifth ami
versary, they are presented with the
rarest gifts to be obtained, at the eel
ebration of their diamond wedding,

The. Fence Question.

Talking about a solution OF the
problem of fence or no fence, let me
tell you that the matter has been set
tied in certain townships in this
county, and no fence has become the
order of the day. Driving north
from Champaign City, Illinois, by
the time you have gone two miles
fences have disappeared, notwith'
standing hundreds of town COWS
are wanderingon the streets not two
miles off. And this has been going
on for three or four years, without
any reasonable chance for return to
the old fashion of fencing, Town
people have learned to care for their
COWS or take the consequences, and
slip-shod farmers to herd their vaga-
bonding stock, or it goes to the
pound.-PraiTe Farmer.

Profit in Farming.

The object of farming is profit
Whatever does not conduce to this is
of no account; and the art of agricul'
ture resolves itself into the one
question, what will pay best? The
experience of Il single individual on
a single farm is not sufficient to set
tie the principles of practice. There
are no two farms precisely alike, and
what would be good system to prac-
tice upon one, might be exceedingly
bad upon another; therefore we can
not take the experience of a single
individual upon a single farm, but
the safe guide is the united expert
cnce of all who have been intelli-
gent observers.

The Cats Eye.

For scarf pins and finger rings, the
cats eye has become one of the most
fashionable stones used. 1t is a spc-
cics of the sapphire, and the mostdc-
sirable color is of a ycllowgrcen tint.
1t has threads of white asbestos with
in it, and the light is reflected from
these in an intense and peculiar
manner. When this stone is proper
ly cut, a white band of light is seen
floating in its interior, that changes
position as the gem is moved before
the eye, which popularity probably
suggested the name by which it is
generally known.
