Wasteful Destruction Of Calves.

Thinking men are much concerned over
the continued habit Of destroying large
numbers of calves in dairy districts. They
realize fully the difficulty Of persuading the
dairy farmer that II would be wiser TO save
at least the female calves, for the farmer
who can readily sell every ounce of milk at
a profit will not readily bother with raising
calves Very naturally he asks, "Why
should / feed twenty dollars worth of milk
to raise a fifteen dollar calf?" and 1t is not
easy TO show why, for dairymen can buy
mich cows when they need fresh ones, feed
them well and fa,ten quickly when the flow
of milk shall have fallen below profitable
point, and sell TO the butchers for enough,
or very nearly enough, TO pay for fresh
COW. If lie realizes that the time will come
" hen mich cows cannot be bought in this
way he will reply that when mich cows be-
come scarce and hard TO buy then milk will
become scarce and easy 10 sell at higher
prices then are now current. The profits of
lively little BY any change which may thus
come in the supply of cows In this case as
in many Others, the unwise policy of des
tro,ing the Young hefers will. in the end
serve to increase the cost Of living. Every
one who uses milk or butter will have to
pay part Of the penalty for slaughtering
these thousands of Young calves, each Of
which. if brought to maturity, might produce
in the natural course Of her life food amount
ing to many times her own weight and value.
Killed at the age Of six or eight month
she will WELD at best few pounds only
Of not very nutritious food. Just how a
reform NAV be brought about in this mat
ter does not appear. The dairyman can
scarcely be expected TO feed a calf milk
worth more than tina, calf will be worth
when weaned, even though he ma, fully
realize that there is here in the West
strong demand for all thrifty calves at prices
which cause such animals 10 be brought
hundred of miles from the East. He may
believe that the supply Of cows in this coun-
Try is much below the wants of the rapidly
increasing population, and tina, beef and
milk and butter must rise in value year by
year. % that few wears hence each COW
will become much more profitable than She
would be nov; but he will probably con
tinue to sell his Young stock TO the butcher
as soon as it shall become old enough to
kill for food Chicago Tribune.

Sunshine and Sleep.

Sleepless people-and there are many in
America should court the sun. The very
worst soporihe is laudanum, and the very
best sunshine. Therefore, it is very plain
that poor sleepers should pass as many hours
as possible in the sunshine and as few as
possible in the shade Many women are
martyrs, and yet they do not know it.
They shut the sunshine out of their houses
and their hearts, they wear wells, they carry
parasols, they do all they can to keep off the
subtlest and yet most potent influence which
is intended to give them strength and beau
ty and cheerfulness. Is it not time to
change this, and so get color and roses in
their pale cheeks, strength in their weak
backs and courage in their timid souls !?
The women of America are pale and deli
cate; they may be blooming and strong /;
and the sunlight will be potent influence
in this transformation.
