Ashes as Cattle Feed.

A Maine farmer, in recent conversat-
ion, gave his experience in treating neat
stock affected with the habit Of eatin q
wood, chewing bones, etc. His cattle
were one spring affected in this way !;
They became thin in flesh, refused to eat
hay, and presented sickly appearance.
He put about four bushels of leached
ashes in his barnyard and threw out to
them about shovelful each day They
all cat it with evident relish After turn
ing them ont to pasture he pnt ono peck
Of dry ashes per week on the ground in
the pasture. They ate it all up ard qnaw.
ell off the grass where it had been lying
The cattle began to improve, gaining
flesh and looking better than they hat
for several years. He now give one quar-
of ashes, mixed with the same ouantit,
of salt twelve head of cattle, about one,
week, and finds it to agree with then
wonderfully.

and improving town, pleasantly situated
on the north bank of the Arkansas river,
100 ~, 'las west of Little Rock by railroad
and $50 mIss from w. Ia" same point by W 'ae
river. Its population ua;;9 hers looo 70
1900. There is, in soocessful opera,rvn
here three steam FIGURING Mills, which
manufacture as good flour as is made any
where, which is shipped in large quantI-
ties to Little Rock and other points be-
low here; steam Saw and Planning Mill
to which is attached machinery for max
ing mouldine sand eernl work q wagon,
buggy and carriage manutactory; three
steam cotton gins; Broom Factory
which ships brooms to St Louis, New
Orleans and other places The Presby
terian. NJ. f. Church South, Episcopal
and Catholic Societies, all have good
churches in which services are regularly
held. The Masons, Odd Fellows and
Temperance societies all have organiza-
tons. There are also, two weekly news
papers published here Van Buren, has
many buildings, both brick and frame,
that would be an ornament to much
larger place; her merchants and profess
onal men stand high in their several ca
pacities; and her citizens, generally, for
hospitality, etiquette and intelligence,
will rank with those Of any country.
Van Buren, in consequence of her heal
thy location, her facilities for receiving
and shipping, both by rail and river, and
cheapuess of all tine neeessaries OF lie
presents great advantages for manufact
