SUGGESTIONS from FIREMEN.
The chiefs Of fire departments IA
the United States always do sem
sible things in their annual con-
yentions. Their last meeting az
Cleveland was full Of good work.
Two OF their recommendations
strike ns as of great importance.
One is that the state should ap-
point standing commissions TO in-
yestigate and report upon the
cansss OF all fires. Atpresent this,
which should be on imperative du-
", is performed only ia q few large
cities by official persons. Such
commissions should have all the
powers usually granted to similar
bodies of calling Witnesses, admin
istering oaths and making arrests.
We believe that these commissions
could greatly reduce the percent
age Of fires happening by accident
Or by design. The convention also
suggests that every large hotel and
factory should have q private 6re
department. with apparatus. Ex,

The proclamation calling for

on which it rests is the following

peace commissioners To Washing

press the military preparations

Controlling Horn Growth.

A correspondent of the Country
Gentleman, upon the subject of con-
trolling horn growth, says:
"Some thirty years ago when a
boy on my fathers farm | had a pair
of calves gwen to me of which I was
very proud, as all boys usually are
of their steers. When they were
two yeors old, a horn on one of them
became badly Topped, caused by an
injury. AS they were perfect while
younger, was very anxious to
straiglten it, as they were twins and
very fine, and my method was, and
is, as follows: Scrape, or shave the
horn on the same side you wish to
turn it, nearly or quite to the quick.
| remember in that instance | start
ed the blood. Repeat the operation
some two or three times if necessary
to be governed by the severity of the
case, and scrape the horn on the OPP
posite side just enough to give it a
health growth. The philosophy of it
is that by weakening the side in the
direction you wish to move the horn,
aud by facilitating growth on the op-
posite side, the result, from natural
causes will be sure-that the strong
will overcome the weak. The horn
in question was raised a little higher
than the original, but not enough to
be noticeable. | believe this mode
of operating to be correct, and the
remedy infallible, as l have had oc-
casion to see demonstrated many
times since.

What Can be Done by Reading.

Some farmers arc not content to
close their eyes to the value of "book-
farming" as many are pleased to
term the published experiments and
practice of their brethren. a case
in point is given by correspondent
of that sterling old journal, the New
England Farmer: "The first impor-
tant step | took, SAID he under its
direction, was in the matter Of fences.
| had been over my fences in the
Spling. patching here sppta and there
Il spot, building so as to appear we'll ::
but alas feeling that it would not
withstand having a COW scratch
against it, or that some strong wind
would lay it low. In the next Issue
of the Farmer appeared an Article on
the Importance of close, high and
substantial fences. 1t struck me
very forcibly, and thought OF my
poor sickly fences, and after rumina-
ting further on the subject, resoh ed
to have some fences on my place Of
which | need not bc ashamed; |
went to work and in ten days had a
set of good, strong fences, and at the
end of the season | saw it paid. 1t
was the same in other matters, after
a year or two by following its sng-
gestions | was enabled to turn to ac-
count many things which | had be-
fore allowed to go to waste. 1t as
sisted me wonderfully in the man
agement and feeding of my stock,
helped the greatly i'll the making Of
my butter and cheese, opened my
eyes to the great Importance of warm
and more comfortable barns, and to
the making and using of manure; it
has given valuable aid in the matter
of plowing and narrowing, and, in
short, there are very few things in
the doing of which | have not i'm
proved since l began its acquaintance.
| believe it has been the means, under
God, Of securing to me a happy home,
for, considering the four years of bu-
siness stagnation through which we
have passed, without it | should not
have been worth dollar"
