What is a Thorou2hbred

While we'll informed, practical men have
little controversy on this subject, it is amaz-
ing how never ending is the discussion in re-
lation to it, by men interested in the various
rings that have been established by dealers
in mere pedigree.
thoroughbred, thoroughly, bred animal,
is one whose ancestors have been bred to a
certain standard of form and quality, for such
number of generation that this standard is
uniformly reproduced in the offspring.
Experience has established that by the use of
males OF the old races, such as Devons, Short
Horns, Herefords, ETC., 10 cattle,upon good
cows of common or mixed blood from five to
seven generations, we establish in the progeny
the fred charactistics of the superior breed.
Hence, the Short Horn Herd Book pub
lished by the association of the breeders of
Great Britain, admits to record bulls having
five crosses of recorded sires, and cows with
only four such crosses. The American Herd
Book admits all animals tracing to imported
stock,or to stock previously in that work. The
American Short Horn Record admits all trac-
ing to imported stock. And in both these
works the descendants of animals imported
aDithOut pedigree, are admitted to record.
In many cases the record in these American
publications shows only four or or five cross
es; while animals OF equal excellence in all
particulars, and having ten or more good
crosses, are rejected unless they show connec-
ton with imported stock in all their crosses,
or Gin the American Herd Book with animals
recorded in that work. Is there any reason
or justice in this, when it is known that an
finals not Of pure blood have been imported ?

The department clerks in Washington are to
be granted time to go home to vote.
In response to inquiry the Treasury Depart
ment states that the legal tender quality of the
United States notes will remain after assump-
ton as before, and the circulating notes of the
national banks will bs redeemable in United
States notes.
The Post-ofice Department decides that the
productions of the typewriter cannot be re-
garded as printed matter, but must be treated
is correspondence. When, however, 200 or 800
envelopes are deposited with postmaster,
the contents of which are exactly alike, though
written by typewriter, it is prima facie evil
dence that the production is circular, and it
can therefore be sent at circular rates.
At the cabinet meeting last week the letter of
the Attorney General was approved, giving the
opinion that the Utah and Oregon railroad can
pass through the Bannock Indian reservation.
The treaty with the Bannocks was not recog
nized as law of Congress, which is considered
superior to it, and gives the company the right
w follow prescribed line.

There is Land where nightly repair,
At whose dim gate lay my cross aside,
Stretch out my arms toward Rest, as toward a
bride,
And am Virtual assuaged. All even there,
Beyond false hope, beyond the stress OF prayer,
Beyond The hurt and smart OF wounded pride,
With no more hunger Tor sweet things denied,
NV heart has rest and respite from despair.
0 LAM of my site shapes and languid pleasure!
Waste fields of poppies without track, IL seems;
o scentless lilies. by the voiceless SIRENS
Where come my ghosts and dance a silent measure
Hold my lost joy now only in dear dreams
Give back to me- sometimes my buried treasure
have no heart in me for Loves delight
How sweet the summer was. | know its spell,
Who care not now what stars may have TO tell.
For me the day is void, and void the night.
Upon her dim and inaccessible height
fame stands above me, Tobed and crowned. All,
well!
., Let those who love her find her pleasure able.
She hath nor grace nor merit in my sight.
only am in love with tender Sleep
Dew on my sad, unfruitful flower of life
Ofwhich no man the memory may keep.

MY SKY is not too gray, my path too steep,
While thou art mine, for FRIEND for love- for wife!

AGRICULTURAL.
SIauphterinu Swine


A correspondent of the New England
Farmer says:
What l consider the proper way to kill
hog, is to get into the pen alone, work up to
the victim carefully, scratch his back little,
perhaps, and before he is aware of any danger,
slip rope into his mouth; bat by all means
AVOID any excitement so far as possible.
When the rope is well secured in his mouth,
nand the end to the assistant, who will pull
IL tlght, and, as quick as you can get the hog
into a good position, strike a good smart
blow above bis eyes with an axe or hammer.
| used an old adze, which has small round
head and makes smaller mark than an axe,
Ii the blow is hard, and aimed right, the hog
will fall and will not stop to do the most
natural thing for hog, that's, to squeal, and
stunned. Besides the humanity of this
method, another advantage is that it saves a
hard tussle which is required to throw and
mold large hog when in possession of all his
faculties. Il is not always necessary to rope
a hog, but it is the safest way, as they may
dodge If not held, and you will miss your aim,
which is very undesirable; consequently, it is
better to rope and hold them; then, if the
nrst plow falls, it may be repeated instantly.
Dr. Sads says: "There is an idea preva-
lent among farmers, and even among many
OF those who practice the slaughtering of
swine as an avocation, that, if these animals
are rendered insensible by blows upon the
head, it is impossible to empty the blood YES
sells. There is no foundation, however, for
any such opinion. Any obstacles to bleeding
are due, not to material differences in the ana
tomical arrangement of the blood vessels, but
solely to the difficulties attending the Cutting
through OF the great mass of fat and flesh
which characterizes the necks of swine, in
order to reach those vessels-a reason, GER
tanly, why the animal should be rendered
insensible before bleeding, not only on the
score OF humanity, but also on the score of
avoiding the barbarous sights and sounds
which so frequently disgrace our towns and
villages. In Europe, generally, and at the
present time in our large slaughtering estab-
lshments, both in New England and at the
West, the swine are first rendered insensble
by being stunned"
The writer believes that there are but few
of the readers of the Farmer who would 20
back to old practices, after killing number
OF swine by stunning and then bleeding. Let
us try and get out of the old ruts, and see if
there are not better ways than those our
fathers followed, even in killing hogs.
