Clover - . soiling Crop.

Rye, oats, clover, corn, barley and pearl
millet are the principal soiling crops, nil
Of which are valuable and enormously pro
ductive when -rown IN good land. OF
late our farmers have neglected sowing
clover either for soiling or for hay, giving
as reason that cattle are not fond OF II
and do not eat it readily. Recent expert
ments have convinced rs most fully that
IT is one Of the best crops we have for soil
ing, inasmuch as from three 10 four crops
may be ut. We cut the first clip early
in June, and now We are gong over II
again. and we have no doubt that We can
get another cutting. and perhaps fourth.
When fed in this way it will go very much
farther than when the cattle are allowed
10 run in the teld. since the growth IL 30
rank that very much Of il il trodden under
foot and wasted. When the frst cutting
vas made, II stood about two feet high
and very thick and leafy. II was fed 20
cows, and they ate j: with great avidIty
in fact, much better than they dad like
quantity Of either rye or oats. After the
first cutting it spiouted up and grew won
drously; and the second crop il much bet
ter than the hnt, being more juicy and
tender. After repeated trials with most Of
the crops grown for soiling, We are fully
convincedl that red clover u fully as good
az any, whether milk. butter or cheese IL
to he produced. No other forage crop
keep the stock in better condition; while
the amount Of fodder gathered from an
acre is not exceeded save by corn fodder
and pearl miIlet. But while We are pleas
ed with the trial as given above. we would
not by any means recommend clover alone

and more 20 than when the stock IA allow

land like the other forage crops. and a
small amount Of manure will give n mos,
abundant yield. Each crop. also il more

into q pen that tapered towards one end
where there were gates; these gates were
thrown open and the cattle were crowded
towards them: the rear ones pushing
ahead forced the front ones to enter into
a smaller pen which was only wide enough
for two heads abreast. Then the gates
are shut and the inspector looks over the
beeves, making hist Of tn. m all with their
brands; afterwards the road brand Is put
on; there may be 800 different brands in
herd, but all must have the same road

bread tolerably good, the coffee black and
without sugar or milk, the bacon fried and
then poured, greese and all, into a large

Of eating is primitive; the food Is served
up on sack, and the boys sit down on

molasses, takes a bite and repeats 1t; all

After supper. fires are lighted around
the corral and the men take their places
on horseback all around the outside. The
corral is made of logs and brush. Soon a
low tramp is heard, which increases to a
roar, accompanied by cloud Of dust; the
cattle have perhaps seen a rabbit and

will carry it before them. To avert tins

In New England and the middle States,
| have always heard the name Of moody
applied to hornless COW. IL was used
for short as a nown. thus "a mooly,"
meaning a hornless COW; also as an
adjective-thus, a ''mooly cow."I dom,
recollect ever hearing 1t applied to an @,
or bull; these were spoken of thus
hornless OF" "a hornless bull" The
word is differently written, moody, mooley,
muiy, muley. The first photography j,
best, because written exactly as pro
nounced, at least in New England. Horn
less cattle abound throughout our country,
but what they call them at the South
do not know, except from correspondents
there, who always wrote TO me ''polled
cattle"
In Great Britain, there are the Norfolk
and Suffolk Polled Reds; in the North OF
England they used 10 call larger breed
of polled red Galloway" II was a COW
| OF this sort Coliing crossed with a Short
horn bull, and thus came the "alloy''
which Mr.. Bates and some other choics
breeders would never allow 10 come intn
their herds. In the county Of Galloway,
they have red black. and dun polled i'm.
ported into Canada the Scotch settler,
there call Galloway" The proper name
for choice black pollej cattle, however, j,
Angus, for in that country they are the
finest bred. | have heard polled cattle
called also, after other countries in which
they were bred.
Formerly the color could not be depend
| ed on; black COW may produce a red O,
l dun calf, and 20 vice versa all round. But
| in late years, choice breeders keep throw
| ing out all but black. and now they car
depend upon such herds almost invariably
breeding true TO this color. A pure shin.
ing black is preferred in Angus Scotland
| and neighboring counties 10 all other col.
ors. In Norfolk and Suffolk Eng and
pure Icd Of yellovish up 10 mahogany
shade alone IS tolerated. Other name,
are applied 10 polled cattle, such a,
I"Dodded," ''Humbled." ''Eo-horned, y
etc but these are local. Large herds o.
red polled cattle are bred in Austria, and,
| of various colors in Germany, and prob
ably other parts Of Europe.
How hornless cattle originated neither
