THE Foop OF CATTLE.-A small guam
tity of concentrated food, such as Is
well suited to the horse, lie unsuited to
the fattening OK, yet oilcake and meal
are often wasted by feeding 1t In a way
approaching too nearly to this latter
condition. By giving it unmixed with
other food, or in too large lots, much OF
1t often passes through the alimentary
canal imperfectly digested. The capa-
cious stomach of the OK requires filling
with a bulky dilute material, In order
to excite into action the secretory ves-
sells of its large surface, and to allow OF
the proper digestion of whatever nutri'
tive material may also be present.

Foul SToMACHs.-Stock Of every de-
scription, from overlooking, from want
of change of food, and from scanty
feed get out of order, and the condition
of the stomach Is the first visible symp
tom. Charcoal is a corrector of all such
incipient signs of disease, but in Its
usual state IL is also the least palatable
article that ian be given to animals. In
the Northwest, where corr is so cheap
as to be freely used, we have charcoal
In a very palatable form. All kinds OF
farm animals eat it readily, and given
once a week it maintains a sweetness OF
the stomach of a most beneficial char
acter. Those who burr corn always
have a full supply Of part. burned
grains of corn In the ashes, which they
use as a corrective; but in the East,
where corn is too costly for iuel, it will
still pay to burn sufficient at times to be
used as a corrective. Poultry and hogs
eat 1t to the last morsel and thrive well
on It..

WASN'T THAT SoRT.-While General
Thomas was inspecting the Notifications

they heard some one shout:
"Hello, mister! You! | want to

General Thomas, turning, found he
was the "'mister" SO politely hailed by
an East Tennesseean soldier.
"Well, my man," said he, "what do
you want with meP"
81 want to get a furlough, mister,
that's what want" was the reply.
"Why do you want Il furlough, my

LOOK AHEAD.-Every farmer who has
timber, should get a few logs to the
mill for drag timber, wagon tongues,
and the like. Have them sawed and
piled under cover, so that next season,
when work is crowding and a piece of
seasoned timber is needed, you will
know just where the desired article
can be found without being obliged to
spend the whole day in search of 1t.
Each farmer should have a chest OF
common tools, such as are necessary for
repair work on the farm. 1t is much
easier, if we have the materials, to re-
pair q broken harrow or other utensil,
than to travel four or five miles to a
shop for the purpose of hiring done what
we could do just as well ourselves. Any
articles that are liable to break, had bet
ter be attended to at once, and not laid
aside with 81 guess | can make that last
this season, we'll enough" 1t will be
sure to break when you are In a hurry.
There is a world of wisdom in the old
maxim, "Procrastination is the thief OF
time" and to no one is time so precious
as to the farmer at the busy season.

AGRICULTURE.

INV UsR FOR SAwDrsT.-The London
Field, Ga the highest authorities,
says Of sawdust: al litter the horse on
II TO the depth Of nine inches, raking
of the damp and solid surface every
morning, and spreading evenly n little
fresh, removing the whole four or five
times q year. Its advantages appear to
be many, Of which / will state q
few which give 1t, In my estimation,
its greatest superiority over straw.
IL is much cleaner, and more easily
arranged and, Of course, much cheaper
at first cost, making In the end
excellent manure. IL Is peculiarly
beneficial to the feet, affording them
a cool, porous stufing, a substi-
tute for the soil or earth we always
find In the hoofs of a horse at grass,
and presents the nearest resemblance TO
the horses natural footing-the earth.
We never had q diseased loot since the
Introduction Of sawdust into the stable,
some years since. Horses bedded on
sawdust are freer from dust and strains
than when on ordinary litter, simply
because sawdust is a better absorbent,
and they testify their approval Of 1t by
frequently lying down Tor hours In the
day. 1t has also the recommendation
of being UNBEATABLE, an advantage which
all in charge of horses with the habit
Of eating their litter will admit.
DRILLING COMMAS there Is quite q
variety of opinions In regard to the best
method of planting and %cultivating
corn, ! will give my experience and
conclusion /: | have been farming on my
own account for thirty years; | have
dropped corn by hand and covered with
the hoe; planted with the horse planter
and drilled. l think, If properly cult
waited, drilled corr produces more and
better corn than when planted; the
stalks will be more uniform In size, and
consequently have fewer nubbins.
Marx with sled marker, rows forty
four inches apart; use drill with wire
back of the brush. The hoOsier is good
on common land, set for twelve inches.
After the corn has been planted four or
i've days, put the harrow on narrowing
thoroughly across the planting, this
will put the ground In condition and
destroy the weeds. AS soon as the corn
isa few inches high, put In the two
horse c~ultivator with full set of bull
tongues; pillow twice and put on the
shovels; DC not harrow In April and
leave of cultivation until the last of
May, and then charge the drill with
being In fault.

the rights OF friendly hospitality by an
attempt to slaughter professional repu-
tation understanding which is the dearly
purchased aud the only capital accumu
lated from the severe struggles of life
time, earnestly and faithfully devoted to
the service of education"
Prof kleeberger has left the state,
Pres. Phelps undoubtedly will, as lie is
not man likely to wilt into inactivity
under the frowns Of the Board. But can
the state afford to lose such educators TO
crafty the spleen of al intolerant Board!
Charges were preferred against Pro
fessors Salisbury and lockwood by
Pres. Phelps. One would naturally ex
pect from the Boards predictions for re-
moving teachers that this opportunity
would be readily embraced. The char
ges were made on the 18th of June, and
the Board was urged to take immediate
action, as witnesses whose presence was
needed would in a short time be beyond
the reach of the Board. On July 18th,
the persons against whom complaint
were made We're cited to appear before
the Board, when the charges could not
be fully examined owing to the absence
Of witnesses. We do not wish to imply
that the charges could be proved. We
know that these two gentlemen stand de-
seryedly high in their profession and we
but instance this matter to show the
marked partiality of the Board aud not to
reflect on the gentlemen named.
We shall have something more TO say
on this head at an early day. The
people of the state should be informed
Of matters of this nature and perhaps it
is as well that the Board understands that
It's acts are fit subject of criticism.

If the powers represented at the Euro
pean congress had really any fears that
Russia was growing so great at the ex-
pense of Turkey, as to menace the "bal-
ance Of power, they have allowed events
to SO shape themselves as to portend
more danger than was to be expected
from Russia. England has gained more
through the congress than she ever
achieved through her most successful
war. 1t is quite easy to understand how
England could Optwit Turkey in matters
of diplomacy, but we can not So readily
perceive how Europe could acquiesce in
treaty which so increases the power Of
one nation. Asiatic Turkey virtually
belongs to England to-day. Turkey is
not SO much the ward as the vasseI Of
England as events will soon prove The
Mediterranean, by the occupation Of
Cyprus, may be considered part of
the queens realm. Whose ambition APP
pears to be most insatiate, Russia's or
England's! Whose power should Ell
rope most properly unite to restrain?
The e7onts of the last few weeks give an
irrefutable answer
From India to the straits of Gibral
tar, England is mistress. When we come
to consider the Importance of the Medi-
terranean, the Suez canal and the Red
Sea as a commercial highway we can
more fully appreciate the enormous pow
Ell acquired by England in her treaty
with Turkey.
Turkey is no more an independent
nation. Had she been allowed to remain
satisfied with the treaty OF San Stefano,
she might for some time be a nation in
name. But England and Austria wanted
q share of the spoilS. When the English
feet entered the Sea of Marmora, it was
not III the interest of Turkey. IT was
that Turkey should be forced to yield
more than Russia demanded, but to
England.

agencies are under the control of DIR.
Livingston, and he and his subordinates
had perfected systematic scheme for
robbing the government to enrich them
selves. Livingston it is said, secured
the position through his reputation for

Provisions intended for the Indians were
sold to other parties at a high figure.
The crops raised on the agencies were
