German Millet.

German millet is an excellent fodder
plant, highly relished by stock, nutri-
tious, and with a slightly higher albu-
minoid ratio than timothy; hence is a
better food for growing animals, or to
be fed in connection with corn. 1t
has a more open head than common
millet and an abundance of leaves.
In this latitude (fortieth parallel)
German millet may be sown as late as
July /, but it is better, especially
when it is to be cured for hay to sow
it early in June. From three pecks
to one bushel of seed per acre is the
proper amount. The seed bed must
be prepared with unusual carefulness,
especially if the seed is sown in the
hot, dry season. Roll the ground as
fast as ploughed then harrow fine and
sow the seed at once, covering with a
plank drag. It is important to get a
close stand, otherwise the mlllet will
be coarse and inferior, and mixed
with weeds. You are unfortunate, if
a heavy rain comes soon after owing,
if the land is clayey, for crust will
be formed that the seed will hardly
penetrate. The most favorable time
for sowing is soon after rain as the
drag can be used for covering. This
millet does best on loamy land, but on
any soil of average fertility it will do
well. If desired it may be sown in
May for pasture, but never until the
nights, as we'll as the days, are warm.
Cut before ripening, l prefer the
height of bloom. Cut and cure the
same as timothy or clover. 1t should
be put in mows or barracks. Like
clover, it does not keep we'll in astack,
and like clover, again, is injured by
becoming wet while curing. German
millet yields more and is of better
quality than the common millet.
While think the millets are entitled
to more favor than they have received,
| would not advise their use as substi-
tutes for the clovers, timothy or other
perennial grasses. But on account of
the quick growth Of the millets, a
crop of hay or large amount of pas
turage may be secured after an early
crop on the land, or when it is seen
that the meadows or pastures will be
short.-Planter and ,Tockmnn.

A Field Long Neglected.

Every country physician should havo a
knowledge of veterinary science. and be will.
ing TO prescribe for sick hones and cattle, rs
well as for their owners Attention to the
diseases Of the lower animals is, no doubt, Of
less consequence than curing the maladies of

CREATION No scientific man considers it be-
gath him to inquire into the causes of the
potato rot, or the blight Of the wheat crop.
The preservation of the health of domestic
animals Is, even apart from consideration of
humanity in the relief of suffering to the
beasts themselves, an exceedingly important
thing in pecuniary point OF view. And be-
sides this, the study of the hest means for
preserving the health of the lower animals
often develops facts and principles of no
slight value in reference to the health of the
human system. Some of the most serious
diseases to which man is subject are found
amazingly near the same form In horses, and
need essentially the same treatment. Ben,

Trnnafnsion of Blood.

A lawyer, it seems, has come to the aid Of
the medical fraternity, judging from the re-
port Of what are described as successful ex-
pcriments carried on before professors of the
Michigan State university medical depart
ment, with an instrument for the TRANSMISSION
Of blood directly from one animal or person
into another. A correspondent declares that
II bids fair to overcome the only heretofore
existing obstacle TO the success Of this opera
tion-the CLOTHING of blood, and dangers fol-
lowing from injection of such clots. In the
experiments, a sick sheep was placed at one
end of .he instrument and a healthy one at
the other, and a very visible change for the
better was the result in the sick one. The
other was then allowed to bleed as long
as blood would flow, and was resusci-
tated by blood taken from calf. The In
vontor is said to have been successful law
yer, whom Ill health compelled TO abandon
his profession. Boston Transcript

The ice in the river, during the

CATION is entirely suspended; hence,
no mails have either been received

and for this reason, the TIMES has
been compelled to draw inspiration
from old Exchanges and the County
Court Proceedings for its weekly
budget of news. The story Of the
Claim Allowed for Expenses of the
County Jail Tor the three months

nv water to the school house, aud as
children, for some reason or other,
require more water, especially dur

got to hiding snow-balls in their

discovered the trick and at once pro-
ceedrd to lecture the school upon
the danger to their health in thus
eating snow, explaining at some
lenght the action of a cold substance
upon the tender coatings or Innings
of the human stomach, and finally
wound up by stating that snow in
stead of quenching thirst, only scrv
ed tn increase it. One little shaver
who had been an attentive listener,
spoke up and wanted to know what
they must 40 when they were thirsty
and wanted water.

MARX TWAIN on CHILp GOVERN

For whippings are not given in
our house for revenge; they are not
given for spite, nor even IN anger;
they are given partly for punishment,
but manly 10y way of impressive re-
mindcr, and II protection against a
repetition nf the otlcnsc. The inter.
val between the promise of II whip
ping and its infection is usually an
hour or two. BY that time both par
ties are calm, and til. one i. judicial,
the other receptive. The child new
er goes from the scene df punishment

1t hurts. II it hurts the child, inag-
inc how it must hurt the mother.
Her spirit is serene, tranquil. She
has not the support which is afford

the child bruises her own heart. The
mother of my children adorcs them
there is no mildcr term for t-and
they worship her. They even wor-
ship anything the touch of her hand
tas made sacred. They know her
for the hest and trurst friend they
ever had or ever shall have: they
know her for one who never did them
IL wrong, and cannot do them wrong,
who never told them he nor the
shadow of one; who never deceived
them by e,en an ambiguous gesture;
who never gave them an nnrcasou-
able command, nor ever contented
herself with anything short of per-
feet obedience; who has always treat
ed them AS politcly and consid'rate-
" as she would the best and oldest
CT the land, and has ALWAYS required
of them gentle speech aud courteous
conduct toward all, of whatsoever
degree. with whom they chanced to
come in contact; they know her for
one whose promise, whether Of RI.

ways worth its face, to the utmost
