ss Sailing Stock.

Colonel Curtis writes: Our practice
has been for years to keep tight box
under the shed in the barnyard, in which
there is constant supply of salt. The
cows help themselves to this, estine As
much as they like winter and sum Her.
The salt being always accessible, the cat
tie are never salt hungry, and conse-
quentiy never eat too much, thereby
causing unusual thirst, which is the case
when they are fed salt periodically. In
winter this is injurious, hence we cannot
recommend the practice of putting brine
on straw to induce the cattle to eat it in
order to get the salt, because the effect
Is to create an unnatural thirst. When
stock have free access to salt they taste
q little every day, which gives tone to
the stomach and helps to make steady
and healthful appetite. We use coarse
salt, preferring It to the fine, as it does
not dissolve so readily and does not alb
soro moisture SO freely, which causes it
TO waste. We have used rock salt but
gave 1t up on account of its high price.
The coarse salt answers Just as wen, not
costing half as much, and not dissolvinr
much faster. Our salt box does not
have to be filed oftener than once a
month, which is quite saving of time
as compared with the system Of sailing
occasionally; besides there is no forget
ting. In summer time tight box is
placed in the field and salt put into it for
the cattle to help themselves. A rain
falling into the box does no harm, as it
only dissolves the salt and the stock
take lick of the brine instead of the
salt. As the salt does not evaporate
(only the water) from the heat of the
sun, there is no loss. This plan of salt
ing stock is the least trouble and the
most economical and the safest. Can

An Ex-Consul's Story.

To the Editor Of the Brooklyn Eagle:
A late United States Consul at one Of the
English inland ports, who is now q private
resident of New York, relates the following
interesting story. He objects, for private
reasons, to having his name published, but
authorizes the rriter to su6stantiate his statement
and, II necessary, to refer to him, in his privs
ate capacity, any person seeking such refer
ence. Defering to his wishes, 1 hereby pre-
sent his statement in almost the exact lam
guagc in which he gave it to me:
c. M. FARMER,
1890 Third osenu Nev York.
ION my last voyage home from England,
some three years ago, in one Of the Cunard
steamers, noticed one morning, after few
days out Of port, young man hobbling about
on the upper deck, supported by clutches and
seeming to move with extreme difficulty and
no little pain. He was well dressed and Of
exceedingly handsome countenance, but his
limbs were somewhat emaciated and his face
very sallow and bore the traces Of long suffer-
ing. As he seemed to have no attendant or
companion, he at once attracted my sympa-
thies, and I went up to him as be leaned
against the taffrail looking out on the foam

miles from Rotterdam. Among the va
Sety of pipes made there is one called

the diamond wedding. On the occasion
of the copper Wedding the stem of the
pipe is ornamented with copper leaves
