Captain Dients sued W. Il. Doty, on q re-
plevin and action for damages, before JUS
tice Cook, on Wednesday. The formers cat
tie trespassed on the latter's land. The cat
tie were corraled by Mr.. Doty, in aysrd in
Speareville, and the owner sought $50 dam
ages. The case was dismissed at plaintiff
costs. The matter will come up in another
shape before Justice Clark, at Spearevills,
Is test case, determining the point whether
cattle should be permitted to run at large.
without herding. We trust this matter will
be settled satisfactorily. The man who plants
should be protected; and the owner Of cattle
should guard his stock sgainst trespass up
on his neighbors. Cattle men take care Of
their nerds, and the settler should have pro-
lection sgainst roaming town COWS and
small herds.
In counties east Of US there is growing
purpose to engage in stock raising; to fence
few acres of ground necessary for cultiva-
ton, and let the stock run. But every one
is not able to build q fence. The owner Of
cattle can veil afford to herd his cattle since
he is permitted to enjoy the range.

Two correspondents OF the West
ern Stock Journal give their meth
DDS of curing kicking COWS. respetc-
lively, as follows:
A year or two since 1 got IN
trade handsome three old heifer,
,ne of the most vicious kickers I
ever saw. One of my men who
.nilks tried various devices without
effect, and finally took a common
garden hoe, passed the hoe end in
front of the off hind leg (tbe right
Leg behind), and behind and above
the gambrel joint of the left hind
eg of the heifer. Then sitting
down on the right to milk, he pat
the handle of the hoe we'll up un-
der his arm, and began milking.
The heifer could not stir either
hind leg, and after one week she
could be MIXED safely without fet
tering and proved to be valuable
and gentle animal. OF course she
was tied in the stable like the other
COWS, but on being turned out to
grass could be MIXED anywhere
without trouble.
The annoyance of having a full
pail of milk kicked over by a vicious
COW is, to say the least, ezaspera'
ting. Having had considerable ex'
perience with such animals, trying
every expedient I could think o,
hear Of, I at last hit upon device
that proved effectual, in the shape
Of a milking stool, so constructed
as to shield the pail from the kick.
Take piece of plank two feet long
and ten inches wide bore holes
and put two legs of suitable length
at each end. Put a dashboard,
