AGRICULTURAL.

RACINE, Wis, Feb. %.
[ notice that some are talking about
sowing clover and grass seed in March.
Do you think it would grow fair crop
of grass this year? l never tried it but
do not think it will. K. CP.
Ans:-You would not be likely to get
much of crop this year. No invariable
rule for sowing grass seed can be given,
because of the wide differences Of soil
and season. In one latitude rule may
work we'll which would be fatal in anoth-
er. Experience shows that early autumn
soon enough for the roots to get a firm
hold on the Soils the most favorable
time, sowing alone. The practice, how
ever. prevails widely in the Northwest of
sowing early in the spring or with spring
grain; but there are several good objec
tons to this practice, which are so we'll
understood that it is hardly necessary to
repeat them.
EXPULSION OF THE WoMB,-A. E.,
Disco, Hancock Co., I'll. Query: would
like some Information through the veter-
mary department, with regard to the
treatment of a COW whose calf bag comes
out with the calf. or some times several
days after the calf is born. have known
a few such cases all Of which were fatal
In one case the bag was washed careful
ly, returned to its place and stitches
were made to hold it within, but after a
few days the stitches broke and the bag
again extended from the cow 1t became
infiamed and was as large as mans body
before she died.
Aus:-The expulsion of the womb at
ter parturition. in domestic animals, is
not necessarily fatal accident. When
timely and properly attended to, recovery
is generally the rule. The application of
stitches is worse than useless. Before
returning the protruding womb, 1t should
be we'll washed and cleansed, and any
adhering portions of the afterbirth should
be removed. When reposition has been
effected, truss made of two stout ropes
should be applied, two ends of which
should be passed over the back, and fast
ened to a girth, and the two other ends,
after passing down along each side of the
uddsr, likewise be fastened to the girth
underneath. In cases of considerable
straining, besides applying sand bag
over the loins, the COW should be placed
IN a stall where she can not turn side
ways, and the ground behind be raised
by bedding or otherwise, SO that the
heels of the hind legs are on level with
the knees of the fore legs. The COW may
be allowed to lie down in that position.
The truss should remain in position so
long as any expansive effects prevail. She
should be fed on sloppy and loosening
food for few days.

traveller by the sea will remain for an

Private messages will be taken and sent.
Friends can hear each others voices from

Criminals afoat can be apprehended, the
march Of storms made known, deaths

A CLERGYMAN recently left Liverpool

A CLERGYMAN recently left Liverpool
In large ocean steamer, and beginning
to feel uncomfortable after leaving the
mouth of the river, sought the captain to
learn if there was any danger. The
captain, in response led the clergyman
to the forcastle, and told him to listen to
what was going on. The clergyman was
shocked to hear the sailors swearing Wig
orously, and expressed his horror to the
captain. The captain merely remarked:
"Do you think these men would swear
in such a manner if there was any real
DANGER" whereupon the parson seemed
satisfied and retired. A day or two after,
during a severe storm, the captain saw
the clergyman proceeding with difficulty
to the forcastle, and on his return over
heard him exclaim "Thank heaven,
they're swearing yet'.''

A Brave Little Girls Feat.

Miss Esther Mary Cornish owden, a
little maid of eight years, living in
Deyonshire, England, has just received
the medal Of the royal humane society,
with q handsome testimonial explana-
tory of the circumstances under which
she earned it. On November 81 she was
returning home from Sunday-school
with q younger sister and their gov
erness. The governess suddeuly turned
giddy and fellinto a pond, six feet deep,
which they were passing. The brave
little eight-year-old had the cleverness
instantly to dispatch the smaller sister
to the keepers lodge for help, while she
herself bent over the pool trying to lay
hold of her drowning governess. This
she did, but in the effort she overbal-
anced herself, fell into the pond and
sank. Never losing her presence OF
mind she retained her grip Of the gov
erness, and when she rose to the surface
she still held her by the right hand,
while with the left she caught hold OF
some short bushes. In this position
they remained for about five minutes,
the child calling for help: At last a
passing workman heard the cries and
helped the governess and child tout OF
the water. The former was much ex-
hausted and partially insensible, buther
brave little rescuer appeared quite un-
concerned.

A Diamond Predicament.

The production of diamonds has, it
is said, been successfully accomplished
by Mr.. J. Ballantyne Hannay,a Glasgow
chemist. The crystalIized particles OF
carbon produced by him easily scored
deep grooves in the polished surface OF
sapphire, the one infallible test Of the
real diamond. This discovery opens up
a somewhat %perplexing condition OF
affairs. When the production OF dia-
monds by mechanical or chemical pro-
cess becomes universally known, the
value Of the real article must as a mat
ter of course, 'depreciate. Many people
buy diamonds largely, in the belief that
they are a safe and lasting Investment,
whose value will always enable them
10 be converted into ready cash. More
especially is this true of the Jewish
people, who, from time immemorial,
have been celebrated for their large
possessions of precious stones. With ar
tiicial diamonds in the market the value
of these fortunes in diamonds will be
greatly diminished, for they can never
be sold for the price at which they were
bought. The line of invention should
be drawn somewhere, and at diamonds
is about as good q place as any.-New
York ErpreSS.
