WONDERFUL CoTToN.-Tbe Baton
Rouge Capitolian Advocate of
August %, says: Last evening our
reporter visited . patch of about
an acre and a half Of cotton plant
ed in Catfshtown by Judge Henry
Sehorten, for the purpose of per-
sonally examing the Judges hibrld-
lied varieties of the plant. He
has two varieties, the ordinary cot
ton crossed with okrs, and a fine
variety of Egyptian cotton also
crossed with okra. Both varieties
are very large in growth and show
from 200 to 400 bolls to the stalk.
The rows are seven feet apart and
tho hills are planted five feet apart.
The stalks in many places are ten
and twelve feet high, and the
growth is so heavy that passage
between the rows is impossible.
Tho patch was planted on May 16,
and received only two workings.
The Judge thinks his patch will
yield from-two and a haIf.to three
bales per aero. He has also o fine
lot of Egyptian okra growing on
the borders of his patch.

WARTS ON Cows TEATs.-Dr.
VIM. Horne, of GAINESVILLE, Wis, an

this remedy to the Jersey Bulletin.
Ifthe warts are large, with reason
ably narrow or thin neck, tie a wax
cd silk thread thightly around
each; then touch the surface with
butyr (butter) of anthony; touch
morning, noon and night, If conve-
nIent at all. Caro- must be taken
not to touch any portion OF the ma
tural skin anywhere. If the warts
are fiat-I mean much surface-and
no defined neck, tie small piece
of sponge (fiax is best) to the end
OF q small stick about the size OF a
conmon pencil, dip this-into the
butyr of anthony, and with con-
siderable pressure rub it over the
surface of each wart. This will
surely and efFectuauy remove the
-excreseences. This cannot be done
without a proper tube for running

ling the teat and squeezing, which
