planting nut trees on account of the

be-they can be handled as safely as

Regarding my opinion Of dishorninG

barbarity exercised upon dumb crea-

the power of telling his horrible suffer-
ings endured at the hands Of
savage master 1t has been
stated that such cruelty was never prac-
ticed In any other country except this.
But that is an error. 1t is only twenty
five years ago that it was done in Fife
shire. Scotland. by a few low cattle
dealers, who bought Irish cattle with
long horns. and cut the horns off by
the root, Ms they termed it. and sold
them to English dealers for polled cat
tic OF the Scottish breeds.
l, along with another gentleman,
was summoned to Cooper of Fife to OK
anime cattle suffering from the opera
ton; three Of them were already dead,
and the rest in pitiful condition. We
had them all destroyed and the parties
heavily fined.
Upon post.mortem examination tho
three dead animals were lying in the
field stiff and rigid, the abdominal mus
clos SO tight that we could not move
the tanks; the neck rigid. the mouth
locked stiff and ears erect Upon OPEN
ing we found death had resulted from
injuries inflicted ON both pneumogas-
trio nerves. The lungs were gorged
with blood, the Rdem atous and tho
bronchial tubes full of frothy blood.
This state of matters caused US to
amputate the head, and examine the
nervous centers and condition Of the
brain. therefore extracted. with the
aid Of saw, portion Of the tenn
poral and parietal bones, upon which
the horns rested, and continuation
of the frontal bone. Beneath this wo
found, in close proximity to the skull.
q watery substance mixed with coag-
ulatcd blood. The brain having three
coverings-thc dura-mater, stiff.
skin-like lining of the bony skull. tho
pia-mater and the arachnoid menu
brane; the two last are Of very fine.
delicate structure. The pia-mater con-
tanning the blood vessels supplying the
brain, suffers sadly from injury or fric-
ton, or blows Of any kind upon the
Uranium.
Upon cutting into the substance OF
the brain we found these organs from
which the nervous system springs all
cOngested and disorganized. We all
came to the conclusion that there could
not be, in the whole animal system, a
spot selected for the performance Of a
cruel and barbarous operation to bring
on a lingering and a cruel death. We
had the perpetrators and owners heav'
lily fined, and stop put to it in Scot
land forever. or as long as tho hui
name society exists in that country.

MILK FEVER.

How This Terrible and Dangerous Dis
ease Msy He Prevented.
One or moro box stalls twelve by
twelve feet in size, airy, but free from
draughts, should te connected with all
buildings used for live stock.
Any COW that IL about to calve. thst
10 FIVE years old or upwards, should DO
taken into a box stall at night. in cool
weather and during tho day in hot
weather avoiding exposure TO sx-
tremes Of either heat Of cold. The
COW will then be on grass about half
the time, short pasture being prefer
able for fleshy COW which 10 near
calving. A little dry. sweet hay should
be given her when in the house. Semi
starvation, as practiced BY some, Is I'M
necessary; and, upon the whole. prob
ably does harm oftener than II does
good
When the COW is within day or two
Of calving, give her one and q half
pounds Of Epson salts, two ounces
saltpeter and one ounce powdered
ginger. in five or six quarts of water.
Administer it from bottle, but not
hold the head higher than 10 necessary
for the liquor to run down easily and
gently.
In case Of an attack after calving,
give Immediately, and ut once, forty
FIVE to fifty drops of tincture of aconits
root in pint OF water. Then give two
pounds OF salts and two ounces salt
peter. in six quarts Of water.
Next, take q six.ounce phial and Gil
with equal parts Of concentrated am
monis, alcohol, turpentine and cam
phorated oil. Rub the mixture very
thoroughly in on the loins and fnll
length Of the spine, from the horns to
the rump. Cover with blanket and
give comfortable bed Of dry straw,
so that she will be kept moderately
warm. In three hours from the time
of giving the first aconite, give thirty
drops more. Again in four hours give
twenty-five to thirty drops, and in four
hours from that give twenty to twenty
five drops, and IL the COW is not ON her
feet in five or six hours from that time,
give twenty drops more. Should the
horns and ears be quite cold an hour
or two after the third dose of ac0nite
has been given. give one or two ounces
of tincture Of ginger in bottle Of
warm milk and molasses. The milk
and molasses, in equal parts, may DO
repeated once in two or three hours
till there is movement of the bowels.
Should the horns continue to be quite
cold add at least one ounce Of tincture
of ginger to each bottle. Draw the
milk away at every opportunity.
In the meantime keep the COW 40
much on her belly as possible. DO
not let her lie on the same side more
than six hours at once, but turn her
over occasionally, il she does not do 20
herself in her uneasiness.
A COW left lying on her broad side
for over twelve hours without being
turned over would be pretty sure to
die-even il there was no disease.

plenty of body and good size. Those
having cows Of . small or delicate,
narrow-chested breed must gauge the
medicine accordingly.-Cor. Rscife

WORKING HORSES.


How They May He Made Comfortable
without Impairing Their Usefulness.
In recent lecture before the Penn.
sylvania State Board of Agriculture.
DR.. Harvey, among other good things.
said tho following in regard to tho
above-named topic: The horse should
DO made comfortable at his work. His
harness should fit without CALLING. His
bride should be long enough to bring
the bit down to the angles Of his lips
mot so short As to bring them up an
inch or two above their natural posi-
ton, as is so frequently the case. The
blinds should not touch his eyes. nor
his eyelids, either. His head should
not be refined uncomfortably high. On
long journey, or in pulling q heavy
load, he should not be refined up at
all. He is surer footed when his head
Is FREQ, and, II he should stumble, be
RECEIVERS better Il he can throw his head
down and thereby relieve his forelegs
Of part Of the weight Of his body un.
til they get in place again. 1t is the
same principle as Is applied when men
jump and throw . stone backward
from each hand at the same time. II
horses neck is tired by tight refining
he Is q tired horse, and he has been tired
without having accomplished any
thing to show for it We have all felt
what it is to be tired all over by the
torture of tight shoes, and the relief
that comes to the whole body with q
pair Of slippers. He should always
have free head when travelling in the
night. He needs then the free use of
ali his faculties. DO not understand
me as meaning that the check-rein
should never be used ut all. 1t has
several uses. A horse can be more
easily managed, II he is disposed to be
little too lively. by checking his head
up. Horses naturally carry their heads
up when excited, and refining them up
into that position excites them A dull
horse may, for short time, be made
much more lively by checking his head
up little while he is going This ef-
feet will not continue long. but for a
short drive about town, with light
weight behind him, there is not much
objection to it II the horse ia fresh.
When horse is checked up while go
ing he should be unchecked while
standing. that he may rest. The
chcck-rein should be easily shortened
and heightened, so that his neck may
be relieved without giving him entire
control Of his head while standing, fol
he might rub his bride of or get his
foot over the lines if he could put his
head low down. - C0Iaaan's Rural
