to mix some fine hay with his oats, while

vents him from pandering to his greedy pro.
pensiy Il horse with a delicate appetite IS
usually q tender delicate animal, and no, at

The trouble with mos. persons who keep a
horse, no matter whether on farm for farm
work, or for driving purposes, is they feed too
much hay and to tins cause can be attributed
the general sluggishncss often manifested by
the horses until they have been working a
couple Of hours, while the wind is also much
impaired. Night is the only time when hay
should be fed, especially TO animals used for
quick work. Even the slow pillow team should
have hut little hay at the morning and noon

evening meal, BY doing this, your horse will
keep IN better spirits and condition, and be

horsemen so much dislike to see.

feeding too fast, while much OF the food they
consume will pass through them undlgcs;ed,

Tending Lima has been varlously estimated at
between fifty and sixty thousand men. The
news received here from the time of the de.
parture Of the Gillian troops from fisco, IN
December last, was that they had reached the
| Peruvian defensive works erected near the
beautiful seaside town 81 Chorilcs, nine miles
from the city Of Lima, II Formidable position,
the capture of which in 1851 had decided the
fate of the dictator Echenque. Yesterday
came the news of Il battle before ChoriIos, re.
sulting in the defeat OF the PcruvlanS, and To-.
day comes circum>,autial story Of The tall of
| Lima. The war has been wagcd with great
determination, and, unfortunately, also with
great fcroclty and II terrible waste Of life and
treasure. Ia the early part of the conflict tell
the Gillian Capt Arthur prat, "a sort OF south
crn Paul Jones. He commanded small
wooden vessel OF five hundred tons, which,
after three hours fighting with the lron-clad
Ilascar went down with her flag flying. Ar.
thur Pratt jumped from his sinking vessel on

fell, covered with wounds. Ailerward some
English officers, who had witnessed the fight
sent divers down for some mcmeuto Of the

il to the CHILEAN government. In September

Everywhere upon the coast OF Eastern New
England may be found, ten feet below the wa.
termark, the liChen known rs carragrcen, the
Irish moss of commerce. 1t may be torn from
the sunken rocks anywhere, and yet the little
seaport of Scituate is almost the only place IN
the country where it is gathered and cured.
This village il the great center of the moss
business in Tic country, and the entire Union
draws ils supplies from these beaches. Long
rakes are used in tllng this marine farm, and
1t does not take long to fill the many dories that
await the lichen, torn from its salty rock-bed,
and the husbands and fathers gather the moss
from the sea, and the wives and daughters pre-
pare II for market. Soak it in water, and 1t
will melt away to jelly. Boil 1t in milk and
a delicious white and creamy blanc mango Is
the result. The annual product IS from 10000
to 10000 barrels. and it Drincs $4,000 into the
town, which sum is shared hy $50 families. Its
consumption III the manufacture of lager beer
is very large, anL the entire beer Of the coun-
try draws It's supplies from ScitGate beaches,

EatlMg lenlOns.

\ good deal has been said through the pa
pers about the hcalthfulness Of lemons. The
latest advice rs to how to use them so they will
do the most good runs as follows: Most peo-
pie know the benefit Of lemonade before break
fast, but few know how it is more than dou.
blcd by taking another Mt night! also. The
way to get the better Of a bilious system with.
out blue pills OF quluine, is 10 take the juice
of one, two or three lemons, as the appetite
Graves in rs much iCc.water as makes it pleas
ant to drink, without sugar, before going to
bed. In the morning on rising, or at least
halt an hour before breakfast, take the juice
of one lemon in u goblet Of water. This will
clear the system Of humors and bile, with
mild efficacy, without any Of the weakening
effects OF caiomel or congress water. People
should not initiate the stomach by eating lem
ons clear; the powerful acid OF the juice,
which is almost corrosive, inlallbiy produces
inflammation after while, but properly di-

harm, and when the stomach is clear OF food

Cutting AND GRINDING FoDDER.-While
some go so far as to claim that 1t pays to grind
straw to u fine powder, others affirm that for
beef cattle it does not pay even 10 cut any fod.
der Cattle are fully provided by nature with
means tor mast!cating their ordinary TODD, and
we need not be surprised to find that both or.
binary experience and careful experiments
agree Ill showing that little il anything Is
gained by cutting. In fact it appears from
some experiments that positive damage is done,
rs the fodder is not so thoroughly Chewed and
impregna,cd with saliva, portion even pass
ing at once into the second stomach. Cutting
alone can DO but little good, even with old
hard.stalked fodder without the softening pro-
duccd by cooking, for it cannot open the fod-
der to digestive action, nor save labor of mas
tlcaiion. BY far the greater part of this Is ez-
pended on chewing the cud, and it is best that
the animal should perform this entirely nat.
uial operation for itself.

To TELL ACE or Cows.-Thc age ofhorncd
cattle may generally be known by rings on
the horns TIL their tenth year; after that time
they give no indication of age further than
that the animal has passed it, tenth year The
frat ring appears on the horn after the animal
has pasJedtwo years old-soon after, as gcncr.
al rule, though sometimes before thatagc. Dur.
ing The third year the ring gradually increases,
and at three years Of age it is completely form.
ed. The second ring appears during the fourth
year, and at the fifth year il is complete, AZ
ter that period an additional ring is formed
each year. This rule Is sufficiently plain, and
even a young farmer needs but little practice
to enable HIM 10 read cows age on her horns.
4 cow with three rings is six years old; with
four she is seven years old. No new rings are
formed after the tenth year; the deeper rings,
however, ana tie worn appearance of the horns
are pretty sure indications of old agc.-Er-

Captain Dave is in Humboldt couaty, tax.
ing the census Of the Piutes, and the Nevada
lSiiuer State thus describes how he does it: ION
n sheet of blank paper he makes circle,
which, he says, represents wlckiup or camp.
within this circle he makes figures to repre-
sent the number of persons in the family.
The sexes are designated in the circle so that
none can mistake them, the squaws were
adorned with lines representing gowns, while
the lower cXlrcmilics of the bucks are left
naked, The figures are of various sizes, to
represent grown persons, youths and children.
When Il sheet is filed with these hieroglyph-
les the Census Supervisor takes willow sticks
from two to tour inches in length, with which
he keeps Il record of the number on the sheet.
A full.length stick represents Il full.groNn man
or woman. The shorter sticks are used to
designate the size of the younger Indians.
When the census of u locality is taken the bun
dies Of sticks representing the number OF Pi-
utes in the place aad Their size and sex, arc
tied up separately. In this way an accurate
census OF the piute tribe IN this part of Ncva-
la is heiug taken and to the Indians, the pa.
