MILLS FOR CRUSHING BONES.

Is there a good bone crusher or grinder
that will break bones in pieces about one
fourth Of an inch in diameter, and if so,
what amount OF power does il take TO run
il? Please 70 answer through the Ne'e
England Fdrmer. =. o. W.
Blackstone, Mass, 1878.
REMARKs.-Mills for crushing bones
NAV oe found offered in market at prices
ranging from 5000 to $1,000 or more.
Most of the cheap, low priced mills are
practically worthless, as they sooI get
out of repair and fail to do the work ex-
pected. Bones are among the most diff
cult things to grind that are ever put in
to a mill. They are both hard and tough.
A good mill costs good deal Of money,
and requires heavy power to work it..
Fifteen horse power would be small
enough, where much work is to be done.
We know of no mill that we could re-
commend for a farmers use alone. If
the business of grinding is contemplated
on an extended scale, there are plenty of
mills that would give good satisfaction.

A LIFE SAVED BY A WIFES
LETTERS.

The following story was told recently
in Denver Col court; On hot day
in July, 1860, a herdsman was moving
his cattle TO new ranch further north,
near Helena, Texas, and passing down
the banks of a stream his herd became
mixed with other cattle that were graz
ing in the valley and some Of them failed
to be separated. The next day about
noon band Of Texan rangers overlook
the herdsman and demanded their cattle
which they said were stolen.
Ii was before the day Of law and court
houses in Texas, and one had better kill
five men than steal mule worth IS,
and the herdsman knew it. He tried to
explain, but they laughed at the PROPOSE
ton, and limited that they usually contis-
Gated the whole herd and left the thief
hanging on tree as a warning 10 Others
in like cases.
The poor fellow was completely over
come. They consulted apart few mo-
ments, and then told him if he had any
explanations TO make or business TO do
they would allow him ten minutes to do
so and defend himself.
He returned TO the rough faces and
commenced: "How many of YOU have
wives?" Two or three nodded. elbow
many of you have children" They nod
ded again. Then | know who | am

continued: ~ never stole any cattle; l
