The Charlotte ObscrUcr says: 1--WE learn
that Colonel Johnston, Of Charlotte, COM

feeding it to his stock that he has cut it
twice this winter and it is now fifteen inches
high. lie will NOW it again in Apr., when
in bloom, aud it will be srOm five to six
feet high. After it is cut the third time,
the clover sown with it on the 2Uth Of Sep.
Timber he expects to NOW three times during
the summer This will make six cuttings
ofgrccn feed in one year. For four years
previous he has sown the two, rye and clio.
yer, together, aud three of the four yc ~
he has cut six green crops each year. One
severe winter the rye was cut only once,
but the clover three time. This comes of
early sowing, deep plowing aud thorough
preparation without foreign fertilizers, but

FARM NOTES.


Hoof and horn shavings contain more
than twenty five Zines as much nitrogen rs
is contained in average stable manure.
Sheep fed on dry feed are frequently
troubled with sore lips An application OF
sulphur and lard once ortwice will general
ly affect a cure.
1t is stated that golts among sheep afford
them protection against dogs. The goat
being pugnacious attacks the dogs while the
sheep escape.
For turning under heavy sod there is
nothing to equal pair ofgood oxen. They
may be little slow at the work, but it Fill
be well done if thcy are managed by good
driver.
An easy method Of sailing stock is Il
place large lump Of rock salt ut different
locations, to which the stock can resort wheu-
ever desired. 1t can also be P'.ccd in the
troushs CT the stables to good advantage.
If good clover or mixed hay is cut into
half inch lengths aud stepped in hot water it
makes an excellent, cheap aud healthy food
for fowls in winter and as with cattle, a
little !iusccd meal sprinklcd on it ADDS to
its virtues.
AS the Influence Of male animals is more
strongly impressed on the offspring than that
OF the female. it is importlnt that great care
be exercised in the selection of males for
Improvement. One with doubtful lineage
should be avoided.
1t is as necessary to use precaution in cut

The following is another of many cures
that have been recommended for chicken
cholera: Charcoal, one pound; sulphur,
one pound copperns, half p,uud caIomel
tea grains salicyIic acid, one drachm.
Grind to fine powder and give teaspoon
full OH moist meal to dozen fowls once 4
day.
Many dairymcn practice milking their
cows steadily without allowing the animals
to 80 dry. They feed heavily on corn meal
aud oil cake until the milk fails, when the
COW is replaced by a fresh one. a dairyman
who keeps ono hundred and fifty COWS says
such practice is more profitable than to
pass time between their going dry and com
ing in.
Plaster shonld always be kept on hard in
the barn. 1t will promote the growth Of
nearly all plants, affords partial protection
against drouth, and ~lll furnish soluble lime
to plants that need it, Or all the fertilizers
known, plaster is the cheapest, and, for its,
cost, is the most rcmuncra,ive. Two bush
els only are needed for good application.
1t is special fertilizer for clover, beans
peas aud potatoes.

Specidi 20 the Register.
ST.. GAINESVILLE, August l5.-The predic-
ton that there would be two hundred
teachers enrolled at the Institute is almost
filed. But three more days and the largest
and most successful meetings of the edu-
Gators of Belmont county will have closed.
Last weeks work was closed by two able
lectures, the first OF which was by Prof Z, w.
Elliott, of the st. Clairsville High School,
on 1.-THE Aim of the Common School," He
was followed by Prof. J. A. Henderson,
Superintendent of the Belmont county
schools. Subject, "The Teacher - His
Methods and Calamities."
After the lectures an informal reception
was rendered the teachers by the citizens of
ST. CIairsyille, w. A Hunt, Esq, of the
Chronicle presiding The address OF well
come was delivered by Judge Chambers.
The Judge was in his happiest mood and
entertained the teachers for some time in
an able manner.
Observation-Disclosures II. L. Peck, of the
Barnesville schools. responded to the toast,
The Schoolmaster Abroad" The professor
seemed to realize the Importance of the
teachers mission, and gave glowing de-
scription of his journey.
1.-The Progress of our Schools was re-
sponded to by Rev. Alexander, in his
usual felicitous manner. Then J. l. Tag
CART entertained the audience upon The
Ethics of our Profession" As the gentle
man was practical teacher he knew the
duties of the profession, and expressed
them clearly and to the point.
Miss Mary C.. Bundy responded to the
toast 'sThe Lady Teacher-Her Aim" She
handled her subject TO the satisfaction of
her hearers. Then came j. S. Motfatt with
"Our Girls-What Shall We do With
Them?" This is spoken of as being the
wittiest speech of the evening, but the con-
clusion reached by the audience was thathe
meant only one girl.
The closing address was delivered by W.
A. Hunt, Esq. GINS Fox's orchestra fur
nshed the instrumental, and the st. Glars
vile Glee Club the vocal music. The APP
propriate song Come Again closed the
literary exercises.
sAfter these exercises some time was spent
in social converse and hand shaking. The
contest for the location of the next institute
is now settled, and the next will be how
long shall we hold the institute and who
shall be our officers.
The citizens OF ST. Clairsville will always
be remembered by the teachers as social,
hospitable and generous. The reason for
changing the location Of the institute was
that if there be advantages resulting from
it, let each town have the benefit

The Standard Easily Defeats steuben-
yille-Other Base Ball.

yilIe-Other Base Ball.
The Steubenville team was badly crippled,
Yesterday, by the loss of its catcher, and
was handled without gloves by the Stand
srds. The catcher, Willy Walker, is col
ored professional and came down with the
team, intending to stop at the st. James.
Mr.. Scranage refused to entertain him, say
ing he kept a white mans hotel" and
Walker, in high dudgeon, quilted the city.
AS a result, the Steubenvilles put on new
man 10 catch and beside, became badly de-
moralized, proving an easy victory TO the
Standard.
THE attendance was better than usual and
onite large number of ladies occupied the
Grand stand. The day was warm and clear,
and the sun beat down with great force on
the players, while the sultry stiffness OF
the air added TO the heat.
From the beginning it was evident
the visitors were no match for the
team. The Standard won the toss and sent
the Steubenvilles to bat, quickly retiring
them in one. two, three order. One run or.
namented the Standards first inning, ana
after again retiring the visitors, they piled
up seven scores, making total OF
eight. Then the Generalization be.
gan. At bat the Steubenyilles could
not touch Laird's balls and in the field
wild throws and oily fingers were seen ey-
erywhere The home team had no ditficul-
ty in batting the visiting battery, and kept
the out-fielders hunting leather in terrihc
way. The manifest inequality made the
Standards play loosely toward the end and
the Steubenvilles secured unearned runs,
the first of which was neatly stolen from
third.
The same teams play again to-day, and as
the Stcubcnvilles will get new catcher,
closer contest may be expected. 1t is pre-,
sumable, too, that Laird will be oatted
more freely. The score was as follows:
