KICKING Cows.-I have tried all the various
ways TO prevent cows from kicking while
milking and have found none more harmless,
easily applied and as effectua as the Dutch or
Holland method, which is to take a small rope
about four feet long, and put it once around
both hind legs just above the gambrcl joints,
with slip-knot; draw tight enough to bring
both legs firmly together; wind the rope two
or three times between the legs, around this
rope or moose, drawing it tight, and fasten
the rope by a half hitch. In North II olland
this is practiced on all the cows at every
milking. They are driven to the milking
ground, where stakes are driven about two
feet high, and to these stakes the COWS are tied
for milking.

Facts for Farmers.

Sheep need variety of food and freedom of
action. In winter they require shelters only
against heavy rains and melting snow.
Poultry droppmgs make valuable fertil-
ger, and applied to cold, wet soils, for corn is
decidedly beneficial When salt is added
it prevents the manure from drying up and
burning the plants.
Pear blight has been arrested, in some in
stances, in affected trees by Swinging them
with weak solution of potash, and it has
proven preventive when applied to the
healthy trees.
Hogs when nearly fat are liable to have
disordered stomachs through over feeding, re-
fusing their food. The best antidote for this
is charcoal. Charred corn cobs or charred
corn have good effect.
Parsnips, carrots, turnips, and especially
manngel wurzels, will all fatten pigs These
roots ought not to he given in raw state

SOUND EDUCATIoN.-John Ruskin has said
that the basis of a sound education lies in a
knowledge of three things ut is advisable
that man entering into life should accurately
know
"First, Where he is.
SECONDLY, Where he Is going
"Thirdly, What he had best do under those
circumstances"
The first where he is, involves knowledge
of the world we live in-its size, the creatures
that inhabit it, and their mode of living, what
this world is made of. and what may be made
of it.
The second, where he is going, will lead
him to study of other worlds than ours
and particularly that other world for which
we are all said to be destined
The third, what he will do under those cir
cumstances, will open up to him the possbili-
ties of his own nature. He will seek to know
himself, his relations to society, and the best
means of securing happiness for himself and
his fellow man.
The aim of n teacher should be, then, to
give to his pupils such knowledge of sell
and the surroundings of this present life, and
then so to lead the mind out to know what
is before, that each one may become, as far
as it is possible, a happy and n useful member
of society. Parents, as well as teachers, have
much to do in the matter,

THE LOOM OF LIFE.

THE LOOM OF LIFE.
All day, all night, / can hear the jar
Or the loom of life: and near and far
1t thrills with its deep and mutfied sound,
AS the tireless wheels go always round.
Busily, ceasecssy goes the loom,
In the light of day and the midnight gloom;
The wheels are turning early ana late,
And the wool is wove in warp Of fate.
Click, clacli there's Il thread of love wove in
Click, clack and another Of wrong and sin:
What chcckered thing will this life he
When we see 1t unrollcd in eternity.
Time with face like mystery,
And hands as busy as hands can be,
sits at the loom, with its warp outspread,
II catch in its lneshcs each CHANGING thread
When shall this wonderful life be done?
In hundred years, perhaps, or one;
Or Tomorrow, who knOweth? not you ner |
But the wheels turn on and the shuttles fly
All, sad-eyed weaver, the years are slow,
But each one Is nearer the end know;
Some day the last thread shall be wove in;
God grant it be love, instead of sin.
We are spinners of warp for this life web: say
Do we furnish the weaver a thread each day
1t were better then, o my friends, to spin
A beautiful thread, than thread of sin.

Grass and Stock.

mat grass and stock growing are more
proiltable than raising grain is a proposition
SO well understood as would seem to render
1t unnecessary to use further arguments in
support OF It, Indeed, there is scarcely n
well-conducted farm to be found on which
liVe STOCK does not constitute one of its most
prominent features. 1t is sef-evident fact
that Where farm products have to be trans
ported long distances to market it is the part
OF wisdom to reduce them in weight and
bulk as much as possible And this, in the
case OF such bulky articles as grass and grain,
can best be done by feeding them to stock,
ana mus conveying them to market in the
shape OF beet, pork, mutton, wool, cheese,
butter and milk, instead of their original state
me homely phrase that "the best sack in
which to carry corn to market is beefs hide
or hogs skin" expresses the idea most forci-
bly,, ifnot elegantly. Especially is this the
more necessary when the market is at such
distance as to make the difference of even
traction OF cent in the pound in the cost of
transportation considerable item in deciding
the question Of profit and loss.
1T is one of the most obvious of business
principles that capital to be rendered most
profitable, should be constantly EMPLOYED
Say the security is equally good, it is far more
prontablc to loan money on long time at four
per cent than at short intervals at eight per
cent, with the capital lying idle most of the
time. The same is true of labor 1t is far
better for laborng man to take steady work
at fifty cents day Gf found than to depend
on uncertain jobs at double the price. And,
as labor is part ofthe farmers capital, it stands
to reason that he can put it out to better adj
vantage in growing stock than in raising
grain, in which latter case both himself and
teams are comparatively idle n third of the
year, while the stock grower can find emnlov-
ment during the entire time Again, on many
farms where the raising of grain is made n
speciality, there is much valuable food wasted
for the want fstock to consume it, and which
could thus be put to more profitable use than
allowing it to rot for manure. So, to, there
are many farms that are either too wet or too
billy or stony for profitable tlage, but which
would give fair returns in grass, in which
case even the hooks and corners sides of
streams, fence-rows, ETC., can be utilized,
while they are of no account in raising grain.

THE STRAIN ON THE ENGINEER.-When
people read about or ride upon extraordinary
fast trains they seldom think of the severe
strain and excitement to which the brave men
who run the engines are subjected. To sit in
q passenger coach and glide over track is a
very different thing from standing on the
shaking foot-board, with hand on the lever,
straining eyes and ears to detect possible
danger, every nerve tense and every thought
centered on the safe accomplishment of the
Journey upon which so many lives depend
What such labor means is shown, to some
degree in a recent dispatch, announcing the
death, at the early age of 30, William Philips,
the engineer who ran the celebrated Jarrett q
Palmer train from Jersey City to Pittsburg, a
distance of 443 miles, without stop. The
dispatch says: Mr.. Philips has been sick for
nearly year past, his illness dating really
from the time when he undertook the task of
running the Jarrett & Palmer train. He ac-
complished the feat in less than the schedule
time, but the strain on his system was SO Sc
we're that he never recovered from 1t. He
continued on duty, and was called on inyaribly
when a trusty man was required, but his
health became more precarious, and he was
finally compelled to relinquisll his POSITION

buggy ran upon the heels of the horse, and he
kicked himself loose and ran back home

of the harness and started for home. The old
man refused to CO. but sat down on the river
bank and began cursing. The old lady, how
ever, carried the pieces home and got an anvil
and an end, as they cali it, and began re-
pairing the harness. And finding the horse
at home she told the servant to take him and
go down the river and meet the old man and
bring him home. After an absence of an
hour or SO the servant returned, and she ask
ed: Where is the old man?' And he said
he wouldn't come. Then she said. What
is be doing?' The servant said He is
still sittin' down on the river bank, cussin'.'
