CONTROLLING SEX.

Having published a number of articles on
this subject, the following from the pen of
Jonathan Talcot, in Country Gentgeman-a
plalsible-wiil prove of interest:
When we consider how much is written
and published by practical farmers and 9th
ers on the best methods Of raising stock.
from their birth to maturity. and of crops
hest adapted for such purposes, one might
we'll be pardoned Tor thinking that 40 more
could be learned on either subject, than is
already known, and that there need be no
further search after knowledge in that di-
rection. There are manv practical farmers,
good ones too, who differ IN opinion as to
tie best methods Of raising the various
crops; also i'll the raising of stock. to say
nothing about different breeds. If these
differences Of opinion lead to Il careful con-
sheraton ofthe subject by those who adyo-
cate them, good must result eventually
from such d~ifferences-it not to those who
hold lhein. there will certainly to those
incuirers after the best methods, who en-
deavor to profit by the practices of their
neighbors.
La your paper Of Nov. 30, page 766, Mr..
Franklin Sherman has a letter on the sub
ject of Sex III Breeding" in which he
says: Ito control. or even greatly to in
fiuence the production of sex, would be a
power of such great value to the human
race that time and space devoted to the dis
cilssion of this obscure question is not mis-
used" Mr.. Sherman also says, if there is a
truth to be discovered, he thinks the search
for it will be helped, not so much by com

THE DAIRY.

PAY close attention to your milk cans, es-
ipecially to seams, covers and faucets. In
hot weather be particularly yigilant. A
thorough rinsing, washing, sca!ding and
summing in the morning, will suffice, though
it is very desirable that in hot weather the
cans aud faucets be secured with salt twice
a week. For scalding milk utensils the wa
ter must boil.

.@sHoaTHoEN SPECULATION.

,EH0HTHoEN SPECULATION.
Upon the subject of Shorthorn interests
aud over speculation in this most valuable
breed of cattle. Tnrf, Field and Farm reads
a sermon to those who have aided in bring
ing the present state. 0 fthigs about:
Tho fruits of over speculation in Short
horns are bitter indeed. The fever was the
greatest in the Blue Grass section OF Ken
lucky. and where the fever ragged, disaster
has come. Large land holders, who had ac-
CURED wealth and reputation for safety by
attending to the legitimate duties of a farm
er's lite. were induced to embark in the
speculation. They lost their heads, paid
5000, $4,000 and 500, 600 for a calf, a cow
or abull, and f~lattered themselves that the
bubble would never burst. They laughed
down every nan who pointed to the future
with warning finger, and refused to believe
chat there was not money enough in the
country to purchase, at the ~extravagant
prices asked for them, the annual produce
Of their herds. They sought to multiply
prices with the multiplication Of herds.
blinded by false lights, they risked not only
their w substantial possessions, but the
estates of those held in trust by them on the
uncertain sea of speculation.
1T was plain to us that the speculative
prices could not be maintained, and we
sought to avert the impending disaster by
pointing out the danger before it was too
late to retreat. We were scoffeG at for our
trouble, and now the scoffers repent in sack
cloth and ashes. Not only have their own
estates been swept away; the property of
widows and orphans held by them in trust
has been swallowed up. and lamentations
are heard on all sides. Thisis not the worst
feature of the case. These $ safe" men lla
the right to laugh at the croakers so long as
they risked only their own; bnt when they
placed in jeopardy the estates Of widows
and orphans solemnly confihed to their
management, they did, that which cannotb be
too severely condemned. The tears Of re-
pentance which they shed to-day will not
atone for their fault. Although the specu-
lators have given the>Shorthorn interest a
black eye, the interest is not dead. Short
horns are Of permanent value to a great
grazing country like this, and they will al
ways command a price which will >remuner-
ate the breeder for his trouble. They are
lower nov than they are ever likely to be
again. and we should say thatit is Il fit
time for prudent men to make investments
in them. Prices have touched bottom. and
soon an upward tendency will he marked,
When thoroughbreds sell nearly as low as
grades, the hour in which to buy has come.

Its an Incompatible Remedy for BruiS-

Iii is a most desirable Disinfcctant of

edy and Preventive of them, when used
as an injection. Persons employing it
have no need to take sulphur Baths: orto
resort to Sulphur Springs for bathing pur-
poses.
As IN adjunct of the Toilet, it is far
more desirable than any Cosmetic, since
it does not, like articles of that nature,

MOVES them.
Tan, FreckleS, Pimplcs, Blotches, and
the like, speedily yield 10 its clarifying
