comes diseased, the mind is thereby neces-
sarily influenced. National wars, State dis
sessions, neighborhood broils and family diff
ferenccs, are more frequently than otherwise
the result OF diseased and disOrdercd con.
situations. When the body is suffering, the
mind, acting in sympathy, will become
irritated and perplexed. When the physical
system is in health, the mind perceives things
in their true Highland the disposition assumes
Il very different phase. Nothing more directly
tends to destroy the happy, cheerful dispo-
sition Of II woman, and render her p~eevish,

ance OF uterine disorders. The diseases
peculiar to woman take away the elasticity

Cotton Ia California,

Attempts have been made in different
portions Of California TO cultivate cotton,
but IN most cases the results have been
unsatisfactory, Nevertheless, there are
still many who think this Thing can be
made TO pay, and consequently continue
to give more or lcss attention to it. The
Stockton Independent tells ola " Colonel
strong, OF MERGED, a pioneer in the
industry, who raised forty thousand
pounds Of pinncd cotton from one hun
drcd acres in the MERGED valley last
soason, an average product Of four hun
drcd pounds u the acre, which IL a much
larger yield than was obtained in the
most noted cotton growing districts Of
the country. Of course, the colonel has
only planted cotton on what is considered
the choicest land, YET" adds the editor,
che IL satisfied that with water for
irrigation he could raise equally NJ large
acrop on much Of the upIands Of the San

Meal Feeding and Animal Digestion
IL the title OF n new work by Linus
w Miller. Mr.. Miller isan experienced
dalrympn, and gives the results Of his
long experience in n comprehensive form.
The gist Of Mr.. MilIcr's system is the
feeding of COWS during winter with but
three quarts Of Indian meal per day.
lie asscrts that this amount Of good In
dian meal, fed under proper conditions,
- more than equivalent for all the GOOD
hay n COW can be CuaXcd to eat--Lhat the
animal does not need to have it's stomach
d'stcndcd with a great bulk of woody
lljrc, Whicll imposes upon the system 4
large amount OF extra mechanical work
hotI IN the processes OF digestion and re-
mastlCltiOu that, in briot, bulk in food il
not advantageous, but to the contrary,
and that nutIlmcnt in food governs the
condition and health Of the animal, and
that condensation Of nulrimcnL il true
economy. Mr.. Millcrhas conducted physi.
illogical investigations into the functions
OF tIa four stOmachs Of the COW. whence
it appears that meal follows the same
course IA hefbtceous food, and STAYS
