PASTURES.

Tho Practice of Turning Stock Into the
Fields I'm Spring Very Injurious One.
The old practice of turning cattle
and sheep out to pasture as, soon as
there is a single rod of land
clear of snow, is yet continued in
some portions of the country, but, as q
rule, farmers have learned that it is q
very wasteful practice to turn cattle
into the pastures, even for few hours
In the middle of the day, until there is
8 good growth of grass for them to
feed on. There are yet some who still
persist in following in the footsteps of
their ancestors; they seem to have an
idea that every pound of dry grass
which the cattle eat is so much gained;
they do not stop to consider how much
more food it will take to keep cow
that is rowing over fifty acres of land,
than it will to keep one that is kept in
the barn, or in small sheltered yard,
nor do they think of the great damage
to the pasture by the feet Of the cattle.
When the land Is soft every step of
an animal destroys ten times as much
summer feed as the animal will get; in
fact, the farmer who turns his cattle
out early in the spring makes it prac-
lice, rs rule, to keep his cattle out in
the autumn until the land is covered
with snow; so the grass has been fed
so close that there is but very little left
to cover the grass roots, or to furnish
food for the cattle in the early spring.
Bad as our pastures are, when we con-
slider how many of them are treated,
it is really a wonder they are no worse.
The cattle are very sure to keep the
best grasses gnawed down very close
to the ground, thus exposing the roots
changes of weather. The time is COM
ing when much more attention will be
given to the care of our pastures; when
It does come the cattle will not be
turned into them until the grass is well
started, and the land has become well
settled, thus giving the better qualities
Of grasses . chance to become well
rooted. By beginning to feed a pas
ture too early in the spring the feed il
kept so short that the first dry week in
summer will burn up what little grass
there is, thus leaving the roots so ex-
posed that many of them will die. leav-
ing bare places which will invite the
growth of undesirable plants. 1t is by
this practice that many pastures be-
come covered with coarse grasses,
weeds and bushes. If care be taken to
give the better qualities of grasses time
to get well started before feeding it off,
there will be something to protect the
roots during dry weather, and with a
little encouragement by way of fertil-
izers the ground may be kept so covered
with the better varieties of grasses that
the weeds and bushes will be easily kept
out. Better feed the cattle at the barn 8
few weeks longer than usual than turr
them cut before grass gets well started

Game Preservation.

Lord Walsingham is about to try, on
his Norfolk estates, new method of
preserving game. He has come to the
conclusion that in these depressed
times agricultural labor needs some
sort of subsidy, direct or indirect. He
is also of opinion that laborers make
capital under-keepers, and he has ac-
cordingly announced his intention
of setting aside . shilling for
every partridge shot on his estates
The fund thus created will be deducted
from the cottage rent account, and the
rent of the cottagers will be proper
tonately diminished, each tenant shar-
ing in the benefit according to the
amount of his rental. During the last
nine years there has been upon Lord
Walsingham's estates an average bag
of 1900 cartridges, which would give
to each of his tenants yearly reduc-
duction of lis. Cd; while, if good
year came, and 5000 b rds were killed,
a cottager paying an annual rental OF
Is IS. would be entitled to lump re-
duction of 1873. His Lordship expresses
his hope that this offer will induce his
tenants Ito do all in their power to
protect the nests of cartridges during
the breeding season.-LOndoa Times.

MILK FOR BABES.
The Kind. OF MIX Best Calculated to Pro-

The Kind. OF MIX best Calculated to Pro-
m0te the Health OF Infants.
To be perfect food for infants,
milk must be of the very best quality.
This statement is not meant to convey
the impression that it must be very rich
In cream, or any one of its other parts;
but that 1t should be in as sweet, pure.
perfect condition as possible. Cows
milk, rs it averages when the milk of
several cows Ia mixed together, is rich
enough in fats and other constituents,
and often needs diluting. An excess
of cream impairs rather than improves
it for this class of consumers. An ex-
cess would be about as Objectionable as
deficiency. 1t is important that it
should come from a COW in good
health, and fed on sweet and whole
some food; for the quality and whole
someness of milk will vary with the
character of the food from which it is
made.
To produce the best milk for infants,
the animals giving it should neither be
overfed nor underfed. One extreme
would be as unfortunate as the other.
Milk. becomes vitiated when its secre-
ton is over-stimulated. In part, at
least, milk is derived from decomposi-
ton of tissue; and when this goes on
actively, fragments of tissue break
away without being perfectly dissolved;
and may be seen suspended in the milk.
The fragments that are small enough
to pass through an ordinary strainer
remain in the milk, and by their rapid
decomposition affect its flavor and
quality.
For infants use, milk from cows Civ
Ing rather moderate quantity is to be
preferred to that from cows producing
unusually large yields. When milk be-
comes irregular from extremes in feed
ing, it is greatly improved by filtering
it through = sack of pulverized char
coal. Fltering it through filter paper
will help it very much, but charcoal is
better. The filter will catch all the
Objectionable solids, and the absorbent
capacity of the charcoal will take up
all the prominent odors, and the milk
will come out with a decidedly new
and delicious flavor, and much i'm
proved in a sanitary point of view.
One who has not tried it will be sur
prised at the quantity of offensive
matter that will soon collect in the
charcoal.--Prof i. B. arnold, IN N. Y.

Study of Things.

Parents and teachers will do well to
turn the thoughts of the young to the
careful observation and study of par
ticular things round about them. By
calling attention to the robin that hops
from limb to limb, ono may lead a
child to observe its plumage, its habits.
its nest, its eggs, its winter habits, etc.,
till, interest being aroused and powers
of observation stimulated. the child
becomes not only an ornithologist, but
able to observe and reflect upon a hun
bred other things. So a flower, a
stone. the sight of star, may open the
gate to vast and wonderfully entertain
ing realms of thought. Begin soon,
that observation and reflection may be
early developed. 1t is rare privilege
to open fields of thought to the eager
mind of childhood. - Golden Rule.

MISREPRESENTATION THE FIRST LAW

In these degenerate days when ennui

ton is the first law of nature" but this
in its fullest and grandest sense should
include a preservation of ones equanlm-
ity of temper, a preservation of happy
consciousness of living and doing right
", preservation of that disposition
which shows regard for the lives and
feelings of others, all of which makes
life endurable to our associates and en-
joyable to ourselves. Again, a knowl-
edge of that which promotes and that
which impairs the harmonious action Oh
natural bodily functions is essential TO
the best preservation of all there is in
life worth living. To this end judi
cious selection of remedial agents
should unerringly be made when the
wheels of perfect health begin to run
slow, when the stomach grows weak,
when the liver feels sore, when the kid
neys give pain, when natural functions
cause distress, and gloomy forebodings
become constant companions. The
wisest selection of medicine for coun-
teracting such evidences of i'll health and
restoring robust strength to all parts Of

Bo,h Nations Are Free-BOoters.

Some of our contemporaries are dis
cussing the question of whether the
sympathy of the people of the United
States ought to be with England or
Russia, in case of war between those
nations. The sympathies of our people
ought to be with neither England nor
Russia Both are prepared to sacrifice
hundreds of thousands of lives to pro-
mote their ambitious ends. Both ma
tiOns are free-booters who have seized
territory belonging to others in order
to enrich and aggrandlze themselves.
What right has England in India other
than that of the strong robber who
SEXES and holds by force other
peoples property What business
has Russia in Afghanistan except
to play the ruffian freebooter there, as
shS has so often done elsewhere? The
sympathies of our people ought to be
with the Afghans, whose territory is
assaled; with the Soudanese, who,
however, seem to be pretty well able to
take care of themselves; with the OPP
pressed and wronged of every country
who are drawn into the vortex of war
by the ambitions of rival thrones; with
the misguided men who are driven or
enticed into the ranks of both armies,
and whose lives, laid down on the
bloody field of battle. are no more con-
sdered by those who make the war
then are the spent and battered bullets
that have gone whistling among the

tho lot of an old man. The cover had
been destroyed, and several of the coils
were missing, but he accepted the pres

and as he carted it away his fellow

in his direction.
The same afternoon the donor had
business in Poletown, and as he rode

him to come in.

springs fixed up and wants me to
see what nice bed he has" said the
citizen to himself, and he followed the
man around the house.
There was the springfield. The man
had built pig-pen and the gift just
made front for it. The wire coils were
placed on the inside, and the occupant
of the pen was scratching against them
and squealing with delight,
