ACCLIMATING IMPORTED CAT
TIE.

The American Encyclopedia Of Ag-
riculture, gives the following receipt
for acclimating imported cattle
"The most improved plan of accli-
mating bulls taken from the north and
west is to select healthy calves in the
autumn after all danger of Texas fever
is past. Ship them to hepoint where
they are to be kept, being careful not
to crowd too many in one car. Arrived
at their destination they are fed meal,
bran, and crushed oates, with plenty
of corn leaves or good hay, and with
access to pure running water to drink.
If possible, a run should be allowed on
field of green barley or oats, sown
for the purpose. They must also be
kept in dry lots and carefully housed
from northern and other storms.
Prompt attention must be paid to any
symptoms of fever. If this is shown
charcoal and ginger may be admins
tered in the proportion of table
spoonful of charcoal and a tablespoon
full of ginger. If they are gotten safe
ly along through January shey will
generally be safe until the spring rains.
During this time and until July they
must not be exposed to storms or sun,
and must be carefully watched for
ticks and other vermin. They must
be Immediately destroyed by an apph-
cation of crude petroleum and lard in
the proportion of one part of the for
mer to two parts of the latter. Thus,
if they are carried safely until two
years old, with proper care, they may
thereafter be kept for breeding Pur-
poses"
Which is published for what it is
worth. Whilst all these precautions
and remedies may not be amiSs, they
will at least do no harm. We succeed

A DENTISTS FRIEND.

An Oil City man was standing in front OF
a dentists Office, with an anxious, unhappy
look in his eyes, and two yards of flannel
round his lower jaw. lie cast sorowful
glaces upward to the dentists sign, and in
hesitating sort of way placed his foot on the
lower stair; then came out to the street
again as IL he had forgotten something.
Col. Scion came along at this moment, and
with thoughtful interest in the mans vel
fare, said:
"Toothache, Ell? Coin to have it
pulled2 Ever had q tooth pulled3 No?
Well, you'd better go right up afore your
courage fails you. Worst thing in the world
is pullin' tooth. I've been through the
war, had both lungs shot away, fifteen bull
lets in my head, and doctors run q probe
through hole in my shoulder right down
through my body to my toe-thought
'twould kill me. But, man alive, never
knew what pain was till I had a tooth
pulled. Maybe you think the toothache is
horrible. 1t is! It's awful But wait till
the dentist runs them air iron tongs in your
mouth, pulls the tooth right down through
your jaw-bone, and then yanks away rs If
be was pulling on an old engine, and you'll
think the toothache amt no more to be CON-
pared to it than flea-bite is to a railroad
accident. Yer had better 60 right up,
though, and have it out. Don't let any,
thing I said cause yer to back out. 1
merely wanted to prepare yer mind fol- it.
An don't yer take ether. Knew man
oncet about your complexion an build, who
took ether an he died. It's dangerous.
Jes go right up an have it. I'll go up with
yer, and see how yer stand it when he be-
gins twistin' the bones round. Yer won't

out; an maybe yer won't, anyhow, for

Just at this moment young man prac-

rooms drew long, ear-piercing blast, like
the yell of a man in torment and as the last
sound echoed through the hall, the colonel
said "That's it; there's some one gettin'
tooth pulled now. and the dentist hasn't any
more than Just given the first twist either.
Come right up an have yours yanked
Whoop! there he goes again" as another
terrible blast from the horn came down the
staircase. Hold on, hold OF yelled the
colonel-but he wasn't quick enough to stop
the man with the aching tooth, who rushed
out of the doorway and down the street so
fast that his two yards of flannel became un-
wound and streamed behind him like signals
of danger-while the villainous old colonel
sat down on the lower step and laughed till
his eyes ached.

English Farming.

There is not much waste in gatherilg
in the crops; the English farmer looks
after his interests too CLOSELY for tina!
Hay stacks are so carefully built and so
neatly thatched that they look almos
like the work of artists. Briefly, En-
glish farming secures much. better re-
suits in most respects than our own,
though we accomplish our results on
less outlay of labor, and so make the
products cheaper. But there is also Il
dark side to the picture of English farm
life. The farm iaborer there is often
almost as ill-fed and ignorant as tn
cart horse he drives. He is only a
working animal. His life usually set
t'es down to dull, sluggish existence
With little enjoyment in the present.
nd few hopes Tor the future. He earns
but little, and is very seldom able to
keep COW, pig or chickens; and, al
ough he has hand in producing
most Of the ordinary necessaries of life
for his employer, he himself must buy
nearly everything he eats from the
grocery-even milk, butter and eggs.
Occasionally he has a little garden
where he may raise a part of his veg
etables. He lives very frugally, and
seldom INDUCES in the luxury of meat.
l the American laborer lived as closely
rs his English cousin he might lay by
part of his wages. Our greater vari
:ty of diet seems to give us no advan
:age, however, for our English anG
Scotch brothers and sisters seem, as &
rule, more hardy and vigorous than
ourselves.

Hints to Farmers.
FRED L. WAITE.


Lawn is the best dressing for grass
seed.
If you would fatten your neighbours
hen coop spare not the seed.
Now set your tomato plants out.
BY the time they come into bearing the
fruit will be cheaper at the market.
Therefore, if yours do not ripen per-
fectly you will be as we'll off as any of
your neighbors.
1t is time your potatoes we're started.
The Colorado beetle is anxiously await.
ing the appearance of the vines, and
unless you push things, the poor crea-
ture will be short of provisions.
Pinch back your geranium shoots, if
the frost has not already pinched them.
Plant your beets deep; if of the bipe-
dial variety the deeper the better.
Bean poles are hardy, and no danger
of late frosts need be apprehended.
Plant in rows, and thin out later.
AS to beans, you know them. Soak
before planting, mulch with salt pork,
and keep in warm place.
Cabbages do best in hot water. Pick
out good sized plants, we'll headed, and
dress with salt and pepper.
When trimming your raspberies do
not throw away the stout canes. You
may find use for them when your ap-
pie trees are full of green fruit and
small boys.
Now is the time to trim hoe handles.
Care must be taken, however, they do
not get sunburnt. Keep them under
cover when the mercury rises above so
degrees.
If you would have your wheelbarrows
thrive keep the soil about them con-
stantly stirred, and mulch with lard or
tallow.
OleomargarIne does best on fat lands.
1t is better adapted than butter for this
climate, as it does not droop SO readily
during the warm days that may soon be
expected.
A good corn crop may be secured by
wearing close fitting boots. A double
crop may be obtained by judicious
pairing.
No farmer need be without a crop of
squash bugs. Five cents worth of seed
will raise 47,6S3 to each squash.
By all means keep fowls. Farmers
who own hens invariably find their
seeds coming quicker than those who
do not.
Farmers do not find the milk we'll
profitable. A good pump is much bet
ter and surer.
Strawberries, to be. profitable, should
be planted in shallow boxes.
If you have any cats on the place,
mulch with bootiacks, and add plen-
tiful dressing of old boots.
Plant your pitchforks under the
shade of your cherry trees, point up:
Should your neighbours boy fall from
the tree they might prevent from strik-
ing the ground.
Cover your cucumber beds with con-
crete. Ii may kill the vines, but that
is the only sure way of destroying the
striped bugs.
Dados and other wall flowers must be
trained with care. If not regularly
watered they soon wither.-BoSton
