SAEEP-KILLING Docs. - Mr.. ID. G.
Richmond of Ohio, relates the results
OF observation and experience of sheep.
killing dogs, from which he was quite
a sufferer during twenty-five years.
They slaughter their victims by tearing
open the large veins of the neck and
sucking the blood; they never can be
broken OF this trick. A single dog will
sometimes kill sheep, but generally
there are two-often large and a small
dog. A sheep.killing dog Will teach
others. The first time dog kills a
sheep he will suck the blood, and then
eat some and be satisfied. He will soon
learn to kill several, sucking the blood
until he is full, eating no flesh the first
night. Any dog that will chase sheep
when out alone, will sooner or later kill
them. A green dog will sometimes kill
a sheep in the daytime, but this seldom
happens. Nearly all the sheep-killing
by dogs is done in the night; they are
very cunning about it, often going long
distances from home when there are
plenty of sheep close by. As a preyen-
tive measure, bells are good; not small
ones; but three good-sized bells for each
hundred sheep. If, in spite of this pre-
caution, a sheep is killed, say nothing !;
skin it, and let the carcass lie in the
same place. The first night after kill
ing the dogs will not come, but the Sec
ond night they will be on hand. Cut
four or five gashes in the shoulder of the
dead sheep, put small amount OF
strychnine in the gashes, and the next
morning you will be sure to have dead
dogs. Mr.. Richmond has sometimes
killed four dogs in one night. He adds
that sit is well to keep the mouth shut, "
and concludes with mention of a curious
incident: zone morning l found a
small yearling killed, with small
round hole eaten out of his fore shoul-
der. 1t puzzled me. / knew it was not
a common dog. L told my nelghbors TO
shut up their dogs. The second night
after killing, put in the strychnine,
and the next morning had the largest
red fox | ever saw"

CATTLE FEKDING.-Prof. Stewart late
ly informed the American dairymen's
association that he once tried an expert
ment with ten cows, giving each three
quarts of corn meal day, fed alone.
This was continued a month. Then
three quarts mixed with a peck of cut
and moistened hay, were fed to each
cow. By weighing, the result showed
gain of % per cent. in favor of mixing
the meal and cut hay. Ii the meal is
fed alone, it is better to feed it dry, as
this favors digestion. This food was
given raw. If cooked, the fodder is
brought nearly TO its original green
state. But it will not pay to cook for
only five or ten animals, as it requires
nearly the same labor 10 cook for ten as
forty. An experiment was made to as
certain how much an acre of corn was
worth. 1t was fed when in a raw or
roasted state to l04 cows. Prof. Stew
art recommends, as cheap way 10 cook
corn, running ears and all through q
cutting machine, then passing them to
the steam tank, mixed with water. This
saves husking, shelliug and grinding.

HEALTH OF CATrLE.-Here and there
we hear of cases of lung-feyer, "pleuro-
pneumonia," among dairy cows. Il is
wise TO use every precaution to avoid
this disease. That it seems to originate
in dairies in sporadic cases, would go TO
prove that, like cholera and other gen.
eral diseases, it is not ''in the air." rs
is frequently supposed, but that it is
caused by some conditions, which arise
from the state of the stables, or the ami
mails themselves. Damp, foul air, un-
certain and ehangeful temperature, and
the breathing of fetid emanations from
filthy stables and manure heaps, all
tend to poison the blood, and this is a
true blood disease, as may be proved
from the fact that il can be spread by
incubation. To prevent disease by OBJ
serving every sanitary precaution, Is
always possible, and in case of this
dreaded disease, we have little fear of
its appearance if these precautions are
generally observed. Once started on its
course. however, there is 10 doubt of its
contagious character.

TYING Up BUNDLEs.-Men always say
that q woman cannot tie up bundle
properly, and there is only too much
truth in the accusation. Too much
paper is usually the secret of the ugly
parcels turned out by feminine hands,
and the fault is seldom overcome, even
by girls in shops, who have to do up
many packages in day. A wrapper
should never be more than broad
enough to be folded over the ends of the
object inclosed; its length is matter
to be decided by the number of thick
nesses thought best TO protect the con-
tents of the parcel. Ii is worth while
TO learn pretty ways of tying twine
about a bundle, as they not only make
it easier to carry, but add to the ele-
gance Of its appearance. Keep string
bag, and never throw away any cord {;
but do not waste half your lifetime in
untying knots; scissors were made TO
cut.

No More Bald-Heads-The Race to In-
tirely Disappear.

The announcement that the race OF bald
heads is soon to disappear entirely from the
face Of the earth, may startle the timid. and
CRATE harshly upon the ears of those who are
accustomed to regard the shining pates of
their friends with sort of sacred reverence:
but no harm is to come to those uufortunates,
who, like poor Uncle Ned, have no wool ON the
top of the head. the place where the wool
ought to grow. They are not to be extirpated
and not q hair Of their head is TO be injured
Their badness is to be covered over not by
art, but by natural growth of hair stimulated
to development by the application of that most
wonderful discovery CARBoLINE, deodorized
extract of petroleum. In many cases it will
almost destroy the identity of the individual
for q time; but the change will be such de-
lightful and agreeable one, that ali must
eventually rejoice over it 1t will be very
curious, doubtless, to miss all the bald-hesds
from the churches the lecture rooms, the
theatres and other public assemblies; but the
transformation is bound to come No matter

FINE STARCH.-Pour a quart of boil

BOILING Is the most abused branch OF
cooking. We know that many WE'LL
meaning housewives, and even profess
sional cooks, boil things that ought 10
be prepared otherwise, with view of
economy; but great many do it
through laziness. Boiling requires as
much care as any other branch, but
they do not think so, and, therefore,
indulge IN It. Another abuse is TO boil
fast instead of slowly. Set small ocean
of water on brisk fire and boil some
thing in it as fast as you can; you make
much steam but do not cook faster, the
degree Of heat being the same as if you
were boiling slowly. If the object you
boil, and especially boil fast, contains
any flavor, you evaporate it, and can
not bring it back. Many things are
spoiled or partly destroyed by boiling,
especially meats, coffee, etc. Water
that has been boiled is inferior for cook
ing purposes, its gases and alkali being
evap0rated.

there is no more healthy food for most
