How Watch Cases are Made.

The many great improvements intro
duced in the manufacture of the Jas. Boss
Gold Watch Case have led to similar i'm
provements in the making of silver cases.
Under the old methods, each part of
silver case was made of several pieces of
metal soldered together, requiring great
amount of cutting and soldering, which
softened the metal and gave it the plability
of lead rather than the elasticity of silver.
Under the improved methods, each part
of the Keystone Silver Watch Case is made
of one solid piece of metal hammered into
shape. The advantages are readily appar-
ent, for every one knows that hammering
hardens the metal while soldering soitens it,
To test the superiority of the keystone
Silver Watch Case take one of 5 or. weight,

Feeding Cows and Horses.

The old practice of feeding cows every
three hours, giving the last feed just be
fore retiring at night, has been very gen
orally abandoned. Now the most sue
cessful farmers feed only morning and
night. The whole morning or evening
feed is not put before them at one time,
because experience has taught that it is
best to put before COW small quantity
at one time. adding more as soon as it is
eaten up, so that the morning and even
ing meals are made up of several small
feeds, perhaps of different materials.
Some farmers who have tried this method
of feeding COWS find it better than the
old way, and without considering the fact
that the horse and COW are entirely diff
fcrcnt in their physical structure. decide
to feed their horses in the same way
but this is wrong, for the horse has not
an extra stomach to store up food to
masticate at leisure, but he has only Il
small stomach, where the food is rapidly
formed into material to nourish :he sys-
tenn When fed but twice day and fed
large quantities of hay the coarse food is
pushed beyond the position where it can
be digested, and is thus passed off with
but little of its nutriment extracted. 1t
is evident that horses and pigs should be
fed oftcncr than COWS and oXen.-NtS-

The most eXhausting crops are those
grown for their seeds, which are sold off
the farm: whereas the amcliorating
crops, as they are sometimes termed, are
usually consumed in a green state on
the farm. Much, of course, depends on
the capacity of the plants for obtaining
food from various sources and aSsimlat
ing it in different forms. \ crop of
wheat, for example, collects only about
forty-tive pounds of nitrogen per acre,
while crop of clover contains nearly
three times that amount of nitrogen, and
yet the wheat eXhausts the land of nitro
gen and the clover cnriches it. This is
explained by the fact that the cereal
crop contains in its seeds ii large amount
of non-nitrogenous compounds, the
deposit of which has required the
passage through their system of much
nitrogen, and this, together with the
mineral matter carried off by the crop
produces exhaustion of the soil. On the
other hand, clover derives but a small
part of its organized structure from til,
soil, while by its large system of leave
it absorbs considerable quantity o
nourishment from the atmosphere ant
probably by shading the ground retain
evaporable nutritivc substances in TIN
soil. Lcguminous crops in general, als'
grasses and broad-leaved root crops, are
for similar reasons, less eXhausting thai
| the cereals.

How TO Avoid Getting Fat.


A new book on Corpulence and its
Treatment has lately been published in
Germany by Professor Ebstcin, of Colt
ingen. He is not, like the English " sa-
vior of the Stout full of overlooking
thank funcss for relief from disease;
probably he has not even suffered from
it, for oorpulent men are rarely stern and
strict. His method also differs from that
of Banting. According to Ebstein the
primary cause of cOrpulcncy is the want
of sufficient energy to renounce the So
called attractions of life. lie firmly
maintains that fat is produced merely by
overeating and drinking. Water and
drinking cures are altogether condemned
by Professor Ebstein; and while the
Banting system teaches that " fat makes
fat, >" this doctrine is directly opposed by
Professor Ebstcin, in whose ideal of fare
for those suffering from corpulency fat
forms Il great feature. THE $50
grammes of Bacon" says Professor Eb-
stein, which our emperor ordered to be
delivered daily to all soldiers taking
part in the French campaign of 1870, are,
so to speak. an official Acknowledgement
of the importance of fat in the rational
"
The annexed bill of fare is that pro-
posed by Professor Ebstcin for an aver
age case of corpulency, the invalid being
supposed to be forty-onc years of age,
and having suffered from 'roreasing
stoutness for twenty-five years 9aa dis
ease is supposed to be contracrC,, by in
sufficient bodily exercise, diet consist
ing of such things as are hurtful, among
which are named all sweet dishes and
those containing much albumen and
those devoid of sufficient quantity of
fat.
Breakfast-A large cup. of black tea
without milk or sugar; fifty grammes of
white bread or toasted brown bread with
plenty of butter
Dinner-Soup Frequently and with
bone narrow, 1870 to $50 grammes meat,
boiled or roasted with fat gravy-fat
meat being preferable; a small quantity

are excluded because of the sugar con-
tanned in them; potatoes are altogether
excluded. After dinner some fresh fruit,
when in season, as dessert; salad or
baked fruit without sugar. Soon after

Supper-In winter regularly, in sum-
mer occasionally, large cup of black
tea without milk or sugar. An egg or

Set rice over the fire with skinned
milk-only as much as will serve one day.
Let it boil till the rice is quite swelled
out; you may add teaspoonful of sugar
or molasses, but it will do we'll without.
Feed them three times day in common
pans, giving them only as much as will
quite fill them at once. When you give
them fresh feed let the pans be set in
water, that no sourness may be conveyed

fattening. Give them clean water or the
milk of rice to drink but the less wet the
latter is the better. BY this method the
flesh will have clear whiteness, which
no other food gives, and when it is con-
sidered how far a pound Of rice will go
and how much time is saved by this
mode it will be found to be cheap

Joe Fowler, who killed three rustlers
year ago, started from his ranch for Il
COW hunt, and when he discovered that
one of his men, known as PONY" was
brother of Forest, whom he had killed,
he discharged him. Pony came into
Socorro, and, with Butcher Knife Bill,
returned to Fowler's ranch to kill him.
Fowler was riding to the Alamo ranch
with his men, and when twenty yards
from what is known as the Stone House
he saw Pony and Bill Both of them
drew revolvers and Bill fired at Fowler
the latter drew his shotgun and killed
Bill at the first shot. Pony ran behind
the house and fired five times at Fowler,
who had dismounted, and ran toward
him. Pony escaped into the house and
stood off Fowler. At this time MCGEE,
who occupied the house, rode up, and,
learning of the trouble, told Pony to
come out of the house, and as hereceived
no reply he thought that Pony was dead,
so he walked to the door and kicked it,
then he opened it, then he put his head
in to look around, when Pony shot him
through the head, killing him at once.
Fowler then proposed to Pony that he
come out and fight him alone with PTS
tolls or give himself up and be taken to
Socorro. Pony did not answer. The
house was then fired to drive him out,
but rather than be taken Pony killed
himself by bullet through the head

First. Make and save all you can.
Second. Guard against losing this by
too much fermentation, leaking and
teaching by rains.
Third. In hauling in matter for com
post, have due regard for the nature Of
the soil upon which you intend to apply
compromising muck for uplands and
high soil for meadows.
Fourth. Use due care in preparing and
selecting such kinds of manure as the
crops you require to grow demand. For
instance, crops that ripen during the
summer require fertilizers, or fermented
manure that will contribute directly to
their growth, while for those that ripen
in the fall long, coarse, unlermented
manure is better
Fifth. Do not bury your manure too
deeply, or let it evaporatc upon The sur
face. Unfermentcd manure should be
covered deep enough to keep moist, so
that it will ferment as the crop requires
it. Fermented manures should be near
the surface, to work downward. Theo-
rists are in favor of always manuring
broadcast, but practical farmers gener-
ally prefer placing the manure where the
first roots of the growing crop eau feed
from it, without having TO travel over
the field after it,

just enough to give them shape-and
enough each year to keep them in shape
and no more, and not neglect them for
years to care for themselves through
hardship and grief, till finally, impatient
that the trees do not bear, they come to
the conclusion that something must b
done, and so go into them with ak and

A Combat Between Snakes.

A terrific combat between rattle
snake and a black snake was witnessed
by n party of Kentucky hunters. The
RATHER was in the act of swallowing
ground squirrel when attacked, and
could not use his venomous fangs, as he
could neither swallow or eject the squir-
rel. The two reptiles rolled tiercely
together. Both were upward of six feet
long. At length the black snake sue
ceeded in Selling the body of his
antagonist with his teeth at some distance
from the head, and then, quick as
thought, whipped "A coil of his tail
around the venomous reptiles neck
The rattlesnakc struggled furiously to
disengage himself from the choking en-
brace, but his efforts were useless. His
head dropped toward the ground and
the sound of the rattle ceased. Still the
black snake refused to loosen his coils,
and kept his sharp eyes fixed upon the
rattlesnake's. The hunters decided that
the moment of victory was a good time
for him to die. AS he raised his head,
and for the first time noticed their
presence, single rifle shot, well aimed,
stretched him lifeless on the body of his
conquered foe.
