Live Stock in Midsummer

The latter part of summer is often very
trying to live stock. Pastures are short ,nld
grain is high, the new not yet fit to feed
Milk may be in great demand and thu
farmer lnath to cut in upon his corn iodde', /,
intended for curing, to feed off the after
ma h he is lucky who can turn his young
cattle aud horses into mountain or high
wo 'ded pastures, whore they will hav,
Ter and may make at least hal living
upon underbrush, etc. Early sowtd fodder
corn comes in well now iOr mich COW ,
ana there is really no other good use for it.
II cut for curing it is hard to dry without
mnlding and decaylng, and if lett to stand
until after the middle of September, when
it will cure well, it will be as woody and
tough as "corn stalks" When fed TO iich
cows, fodder corn ought to be cut short al d
meal per cow each day. There will then
be no complaint Of the quality or quantity
of the milk. If these are fed without the
meal, the milk will surely be thin, and the
cows are exhausted by the increased flew
ana soon fall off in yield.
Horses in pasture are often extremely an
uoyed by flies. If they can stand when mo-
in use in dark sweet stables, by all means
turn them into the pasture only at night
Gnais and mosquitoes are of little annoy
ance to horses, but the larger day flies, and
Bot. fly, set them almost crazy.
Ewes and lambs are usually separated II
| August, and while none of our domestic
animals IS more otter used as type Of ma
ternal affection than the eve, yet the agony
Of separation will be Of short duration, anC
not especially painful if the two focks dams
and lambs, can I've pastured SO far apart ~
not to hear each others calls. 1t is well t
mt with the lambs a few wethers as nocl
] aders, or a ram or two il there is any
danger Of annoyance by passing dogs. The
ewes should he pcnned and their mill
drawn enough to relieve their udders sever
al evenings in succession after taking tn,
lambs away. Wounds Of any kind of ami
mails are liable to be fly blown and verv an
moving, The best treatment that we know
of is an application of strong carbolic soap
That which is sold as sheep dip is very
good but be careful not to use the arsen
cal sheep dips or anything of that kind
Soft soap or semi solid soap strongly I'M
pergnated with crude carbolc acid is good
and any one can make it. 1t will be iounC
good Tor all kinds of raw sores, gals, bites
scratches and the like on man or beast.

The Redwoods Of California,

The redwoods reach height of from
200 to 800 feet and stand thickly upon
the ground in great trunks from to 20
feet in diameter at the extreme base.
In the eastern woods when the timber
man can get loo, 600 feet from 40 acres
he thinks heis doing well. An ordinary
yield in the redwoods, says the San
Francisco Bulletin is from 500, 200 to
loo, 200 feet from the same area, and
not extraordinary is a yield of from g.
600, 600 to 5000, ,000feet: while in Maine,
if frop: l5, 900 or 10000 feet is obtained
from q single acre it is a subject of Won
der, here from l,0OO,0 900 to 2,000,000
have been got from single acre and sim
gle trees frequently yield 5000 feet. In
the redwoods the average logs run from
6 to s feet in diameter, while MIR. Vance
is cutting many from II to IA feet and
of such a size that they have to be split
before they are moved.
Timber lands in such proximity to the
bay that they will be accessible within
couple of years are held at $50 and up
ward per acre. The timber upon such
land now actually purchased by the
mill men is paid in accordance with an
estimate of the amount of lumber taken
of, made by survey and based upon
the number and size of the stumps. The
prices obtained run from $40 to $3.50
per acre, while in exceptional cases
much more has been obtained The
Washington claim of some 800 acres,
some eight miles from Eureka, lying i'm
mediately upon the bay, brought its own
er Incredible as il NAV seem. from
81 900 to $4,000 an acre. This claim
was purchased by the original owner
from the government in 1856 for a nom
inal value Of few dollars an acre, and
descended TO his fortunate heirs. At
the rate the timber is being cut off the
redwoods will not last over century.

PRINCELY LIBERALITY.

The pension arrears act, says the New
York Herald, is the hole into which it is
now designed to pour one hundred mil.
lions during the next fiscal year. How
mOnstrous this disbursement is for the
United States, especially when consid-
cred in connection with the estimated
appropriations for similar purpose that
will he required during the next four
years, may be comprehended by a COM
parison with the whole military and
naval expenditures of other nations.
The Herald complies some of them in
round numbers from the statement of
"the aunual cost ot the armies and
nayies of Europe" for the year 1881,
which has just been issued by the In.
ternational Arbitration Association in
London.
Russia in 1881 maintained l,OO5, 900
soldiers and sailors, and navy of 224
vessels, Of which 80 were iron cIads, at
cost in all of one hundred and sixty
eight million dollars.
France maintained 539, 200 soldiers
and sailors, and a navy of 313 vessels,
OF which 80 were iron-clsds, at a cost in
all OF one hundred and fifty-six mil
lions.
Great Britain and Ireland maintained
2ll 900 soldiers and sailors, and navy
of 435 vessels, of which IS we're iron
clads, at a cost iu all # one hundred and
thirty millions.
Germany maintained AGA, 900 soldiers
and sailors, and a nav Of 81 vessels, of
which % were iron-clads, at cost in all
Of one hundred and eight millions.
Austria -Hungaria maintained 274, 200
soldiers and sailors, and a navy of 43
vessels, of which 10 were iron -clads, at
cost in all Of sixty seven millions.
Our congress proposes to spend one
hundred millions i'll 1882 for military
and naval pensions alone; or thirty-t...ree
millions more than Austria Hungary,
and only eight millions less than Ger
many, thirty millions less than Great
Britain and Ireland, fifty-six millions
less than France, and six.y-eight mil
lions less than Russia, for the whole cost
OF their gigantic military and naval es-
adjustments last year.

PROPERTY RIGHTS IN AMERICA.

A writer in the Popular Science
Monthly says: "While in England and
on the continent of Europe property is
much more unequally held than in Amer
lea, it is evident that there are forces at
work in the new world which are Great
ting problems similar to those in the
old. Competent observers declare that
wealth is passing more and more into
the hands of the wealthy, the manners
of the wealthy class are improving-they
are gradually becoming an aristocracy in
all but name; and as the societies of the
older cities become more and more cul-
tivated, I think we may see large pro-
portion of wealthy families retaining
their possessions for generations as they
do abroad. It used to be thought that
the sops and erandsons of rich Ameri-
cans could be relied upon to give back
to the community their inherited wealth
through decentralization and incompe-
tence; but that reliance is proved base
less in noteworthy proportion Of cases
in New York, Philadelphia aud Boston.
Fifty years ago the wealthiest man in
America had q fortune OF ten millions,
let us say; now the wealthiest citizen of
the United States has fortune esti-
mated at from 10 to Is times as much;
and the proportiopate Increase in the
extent of fortunes of the second and
third magnitude has been similar. Has
the wealth of the average citizen in.
creased in anything like this degree 2
And such democratic social intercourse
as we possess has its daDgers-the inter
ningling in society in this country of
people comparatively poor with those
comparatively rich, implants in those of
restricted incomes a desire to live eXpen-
sively, which would less often be the
case were class lines as distinctly drawn
here as they are across the Atlantic.
The conquest of the weak by the strong,
which must date from the very dawn of
trade as from the first morning of life,
has been more remarkable than ever
within the last generation or two. Mod
ern business economy favors vast Or
ganizations which absorb feeble COM
petitors and convert men who were in
dependent principals into the servants of
a master. will, whether controlling an in
dividual firm or corporation"

cut down the surplus wheat and corn
and meat and dairy products and cotton
many score millions in value. This IF
course diminished exports, and has
started gold abroad; il has decreased
the ability Of farmers, and all classes of
workers, 10 buy goods and manufactures.
The decline in the demand for iron and
stssl, and the fall in prices, prevent the
payment of the wages asked for, and
there is now prevailing one Of the great
est "strikes ever known in this coun-
try, Of laborers who demand higher pay
to meet the increased cost of living, due
in part to the advance in breadstuffs,
consequent upon the lessened crops of
last year. Is il any wonder that this
state Of things has opened the eyes and
enlightened the understanding of that
half of the people who are not engaged
in agriculture, and who have hitherto
been inclined to look upon farming as of
inferior importance, and suited for clod-
hoppers? Farming has come to the
front, and is going to stay there.
