Doings of the Regents.

The Sophomore class having re-
quested the Board of Regents to
make final decision upon the
"spelling question, recently sub
mitted, they resolved Ist, that it is
the desire of this board that the
professors and teachers in this in
stitution who conduct the prepare
examinations in reading, writing,
spelling, ETC., shall see that the
students deficient in these branches
shall not be admitted into the more
advanced classes; but if such adj
mission shall be made, the Faculty
are to be sustained in correcting the
deficiency as they may think
proper. Resolved I'd, that the
further consideration of questions
related to the subject of the above
resolution be indefinitely post
poned.
Prof. Purinton retains the posi-
ton of Vice President and Acting

I FEEDING YOUNG CHIeKs.-Giyc the
young chickens o weekly feed Of
chopped onions. 1t helps to keep
them healthy. A medium-sized on
ion minced very fine is enough for q
brood, If you have been entcrpris-
ing enough to get carly chickens,
don't let them die for want of q little
extra care. Give them one feed dali
ly of rice and another of oat meal.
You can get cheap qualities of both.
Let the other meals be any sort of
kitchen scraps, occasionally o little
cracked corn. Twice week give
some raw meat, cut very small. AT
the first sign of the gapes, treat the
patient to bread pill thickly coated
with red pepper or small lump OF
Compton. 1t may be necessary to re-
peat the dose. We have never known
a second dose to fail of effecting q
sure cure.

when the buds on the stock are
swelling, and if necessary may be
continued until Che trees are In full
bloom At this season the bark
slips readily, and much care will be
required, when saving of a, limb, not
to make a bad wound by peeling
down. This can be prevented III
great part by cutting through the
bark with a strong knife all rohnd
the limb where the saw is to go. Buds
should he left upon the stock until
the union of the graft is insured,
which will be known 10y the buds Of
the graft starting into growth. After
this rub off the buds upon the stock.
The growth Of the giaft will need
some attention: should but a single
bud start, and push upward very rap
idly, long slender shoot will be pro
duced, easily blown about by the
wind and thereby loosened from the
stock All such will require check
ing by pinching off the top so that
lateral branches may be formed.
There seems to be Il strong desire to
give the trees the second place on the
land, and put some other crop first
Those who do not care enough for an
orchard. to devote the land to it,,
should not plant one. Young trees,
not yet in bearing, are not injured to
have some hoed crop between them
But when the trees begin to bear d
fair crop they deserve and should
have all the soil A clover crop to
be fed off by pigs is the best thing
for the orchard and the pigs. This
will enrich the soil, rs the only thing
removed in the shape of flesh, while
a large amount Of vegetable matter
in clover roots and manure has ae-
cumulated.

MATTHEW CRAWFORD states in an
exchange that the destruction Of to-
lnato plants by the cut-werm may be
avoided by making a compact mound
Of earth about the plant, as large as
an inverted t6aeup, the cutworm be-
ing unable to climb. Another way,
which we have long practised, is to
wrap around the stem, if the cut
worm is feared, few inches of paper
or a large green leaf of any kind, be-
fore drawing the earth around it.
They will not take the trouble to
gnaw through the paper or leaf.

How TO Buy A HoRsE-Look. at
him quietly standing in the stable.
and see that he has no trick like that
of putting one hind foot over the other
In doing this he often cuts the fore
part of his hind foot with the sharp
calks of his shoe, making him lame
perhaps for months When brought
ont, do not allow him to be jockeyed
in his PAGES. Take your stand on
one side Of theroad, and let him walk
naturally by; and then turn and
walk by showing the other side. Now
look at his eyes and make q motion
with your hand toward them, as if
yDss intended to strike, if he winks
pluekily or draws his head back, the
vision may be depended upon as good
and no blindness in him. The eyes
should be moderately prominent.
Sunkcn eyes are apt to get blind as
the horse grows old, and often chai'
acterize a vicious temper. Examine
| the teeth and see that they are sound
strongly set and even. Look at his
fore legs and notice if he has strong
knee joints and that they are not
sprung. Examine the hind legs
closely above and below the hooks
for any swellings, and especially for
cnrbs and spavins, Now look at all
the pastern joints and see if clear of
cuts from interfering, or if there are
any, scars on them in consequence of
this. The pastelns should be rather
short for a carriage horse, and not
much sloping. If the latter are long
and elastic, they are apt to give out
at hard pull In a race horse such
pasterns are less Objectionable. In q
heavy draft horse they are unpardon-
able.
The feet are often passed over, buc
"a thorough examination of these is of
the utmost Importance. They shonld
be reasonably large, hoofs clear and
tough, free from cracks, not shelly,
and we'll set at the heels, otherwise
they will soon wear down on pave
ments or hard roads, and the horse
become foot-sore. If always to be
| kept in the country to work on the
arm or dirt roads, low heels are not
SO. Objectionable, Lastly regard the
inside of the hoofs ard see that
there is a good sized frog to soften
the jar upon the leg when the foot

WHENEVER tree is transplanted,
many of its roots are injured--a part
DESTROYED. Those that remain when
set out in new place are in no con-
dition to feed the plant as it was fed
previous to its removal. Hence the
top must be cut back to restore the
equilibrium. Let us take for an in
stance the case of a newly transplant
ed grapevine If many buds are per
mitted to push and grow the growth
of each at the end the season'will be
found to be Of feeble and immature
kind. If, on the other hand but one
be permitted to grow, q strong healthy
cane will be the result, Thus we see
in the former case the sap is dis
tributed among many buds and
shoots, while in the latter tits suppl
ed to one. The tree or plant of any
kind may liyein either case. While
however cutting back renders th'
chance Of life greater and insure'
more vigor, wehage still TO considcl
whether few strong shoots are no
more desirable than many feeble
ones
