Get the Best.
Western [Wisl Farmer.


There is no place where this bit Of
advice is of more value than in the Sc
lection Of tools and implements for the
farm. a good axe, hoe or plough is
cheaper at a high price than a poor
one would be at less Than half its cost.
With good tool one can do much
more work with less expenditure of
force--which means musele-tAan with
a poor one; so that il saves both ways,
Besides, it serves Il purpose as a moral
agent. You viii find much less III
temper and profanity on a farm where
poor tools are discarded than on one
where they are used When the or
binary mortal is out of humor, what
ever the cause, re is inclined to give
vent to his feelings in some way
sometimes in action by a kick or a
cuff, as any dog or a boy within his
reach viii be able TO bear witness /;
sometimes by words fretful or scoldiug,
or, if he be given TO profanity, and
sometimes If no., by an energetic ex-
preston more forcible than elegant
and best used, if at all, when none are
within hearing distance Now, all this
and more, too, can be prevented by
getting the best" But this ia not all;
when you have done your duty in pro-
curing the best tools, they should be
kept in the best order-sharp, bright,
and always ready for use. Given two
workmen with equal ability, one fur
nished with q good hoe in perfect or
der, and the other with dull and rusty
one, the former will do, by large per-
centage, the most work, and do it with
more ease. And what we have said of
hoes applies to all the tools and appli-
ances on the farm, without exception.

The following excellent rules for de-
tecting the different varieties of lame.
ness in horses and their treatment are
from d. d. Slade, Professor of Agri-
cultural Zoology at Harvard University
shoulder lameness is frequently
due to a strain, or to direct violence,
and is shown in repose by the hanging
of the limb from Discrimination TO
move the muscles, and during motion
by the dragging and difficulty to bring
forward the limb, which IS done by a
hinchiug when the foot is lifted and
carried forward or backward. If the
elbow is affected, there will be a singular
hanging of the limb, and excessive
nodding of the head in motion.
In splint, lameness is usually much
increased by exercise. Pressure on
the limb shows tenderness, and there
is increased heat with more or less
swelling, A small splint, in develop
ing, may give much more pain, shown
by lameness, than one fully formed.
Ringbone and ossilied side cartilages in
their early stages may be recognized as
causes of a peculiar stifiened gait, with
the weight thrown upon the heels.
The lameness nearly or entirely disap.
pears before the bony deposit appears
about the middle or lower pastern.
Strains of posteriOr and other liga-
ments and tendOns of the lower limb
evidence themselves by the local symp
toms and alienation in gait. But
there are cases of temporary lameness,
from very obscure causes, attributable
only to sudden strain of some liga-
ment whose exact situation can only
be surmised.
The short, quick step of the horses
with that inflammation of the feet known
as chronic laminltls, in wuich the
weight is thrown upon the heels OF the
fore limbs, is easily recognized. Ip the
less frequent affection, niyicular dis
ease, the weight is thrown upon the
toes. the gait is short, and the lame
ness slight at first, is increased by exer-
else.
Corns are discovered by rapping and
pinching the sole at the space between
the bars and the quarters in the fole
feet. Disease of the frog is self-evident
by the peculiar odor. A sandcrack
sufficient to producel lameness cannot
escape observation. Accidental in
juries to the feet will generally be known
by the history of the case. Lameness
in and about the hip joint is mos t
frequently the result of strain, and
is to be recognized by the peculiar
want of movement of the hind quarter,
and if not long standing, by the vast
of the muscles of that region"

asserting tables extending along each
side. The upper room has four single
windows containing each six lights of
glass 10 by II inches in size. The COW
ering consists of boards u inches wide,
surfaced and nailed on up and down,
and the cracks carefully battened. The
inside of the building is ceiled with
narrow pine ceiling, which makes the
rooms tight and warm. On the south
end of the asserting room is door t
feet wide. A similar door opens from
the upper room TO a platform, from
which the tobacco is easily loaded on
wagon.
A passage way from the asserting
room to the packing room has a flight
of stairs. A Jrnp door is made through
the flooring Of the upper room 3 by 4
eet in size, through which a case Of
tobacco may be conveniently hoisted
from the asserting room, by means of
windlasss and grapphng-hooks.
Asa certain amount of dampness is
a benefit to an asserting room, no floor
Is needed, a thin layer of sawdust or
spent tan-bark being preferable, as it
allows the dampness from the ground
to affect the air in the room. In dry
soil, where there is no danger from sur
face or other water overflow, and
where stone is plenty, it is advisable to
make the entire lower story of mason
work, and to dig at least three feet be-
low the surface. Such building on a
farm may be used for many other pur-
poses besides tobacco, and farmers who
make tobacco-growing a branch of their
business will find such house a valu.
able requisite to the usual list of farm
out-buildings- Cor. Of the Country Gent

Modern Surgery.

The latest triumph of modern sur
gerry is the repair of a Boston woman
who had fallen seventy feet and broken
her neck. The neck was broken Just
rs the necks of culprits who are hanged
on the gallows-namely, by dislocation
of the vertebre Fortunately the spinal
marrow was not injured or the repairs
could not have been made. Having
chloroformed the poor woman, the sur
eeons had the pleasure Of hearing the
bones and ligaments snap as they fore -
ed the displaced vertebIe into proper
position. The woman, on awakiug
seemed to think that her head had
come off and that il had been put on
crooked This-o operation suggested a
new field of experiment on the bodies
of executed criminals. Attempts have
been frequently made, sometimes with
partial success, to restore life by means
Of powerful electric currents. Let the
next surgical experimenters try the
dislc Gated neck. 1t can't do the man
much harm and might set him parti-
ally or wholly to rights. There seems
to be hardly any limit to scientific re-
