salt for Pastnrinp Stock.

The ash of plants is least when they
are in a succulent and immature condi-
tinn. There is, therefore, less salt and
other mineral matter in pastured grass
than in hay or fIll-grown grass. For
this reason il liberal quantity of salt is
Indispensable for all farm animals in the
summer, and this need becomes evident
by the avidity shown for salt by cows and
sheep at this season. A COW in full milk
requires one ounce of salt daily, but it
cannot be supposed that seven ounces
given once week, will be the same as
one ounce daily. A COW might as well
have the whole weeks rations of feed
given at one time, as the whole quaniii,
OF salt given in one dose.

improvement Of Pastures.

1t Is singular that so little attention is
paid to this by our farmers, for there is
no reason why the grass should not be as
early in the spring, as late in autumn,
and as abundant OH them az on the
moving lands. Instead, then, of its re.
quiring three to four acres of pasture to
carry COW orbullock through the whole
season, it would not be necessary to devote
over the half of this, unless it happened
to be particularly dry during the simmer
montbs. The great fault in managing
pasture lands is, in letting them get i'm
poverished, and turning stock upon them
too early IN the spring, and keeping them
too late in autumn. Another thing, II
sufficient variety of seed is not sown on
them. English farmers usually'sow from
six to twelve sorts or more, and thus ifthe
weather does not happen to soil one kind,
or two, it may all the others, and thus
ensure u reasonable bite of grass during
the whole season.

Care of Work Horses.

The grooming-as it is called-of !
horses, is quite as important as the
feeding, and in summer time when the
teams are worked hard, it is indispensable
to their welfare. The skin of an animal
is one ofthe most active excretory organs,
and is furnished with an enormous num-
ber of pores, through which passes
constant stream of moisture, that is
charged with waste and offensive matter
from the blood. Besides these there are
thousands of minute glands in every
square inch, which secrete an oily fluid
which keeps the skin soft and pliable;
and in addition, every hair on the skin
is rooted in folicle or gland, which
supplies the special nutriment required
for it. Moreover, the surface of the skin
is continually wearing away as it is re-
newed by the new growth, and this waste,
dry matter scales off, and needs to be
removed by the curry-comb and brush.
When horse is working, the excretion
from the skin is profuse, and pours from
it in the form of perspiration. When
this dries on the skin it leaves quantity
of impure matter adhering to it, which is
apt to close the pores and prevent the
escape of the pcrspiration. This pro-
duces disorder, in the form of congestion
of the myriads of capillary vessels which
form close network near the surface
of the body and the excretjon and secre-
tions being stopped, the skin becomes
harsh, dry, contracted and diseased. The
impure matter-being unable to escape
gathers in places and forms pimples
blotches or tumors and. il it is moi
removed, there is danger of poisoning the
blood, and, with the appearance Of farcy
and glanders, finally DEATH All this
may be prevented by careful attention t.
the skin, by occasional washing, regular
currying and brushing, and proper care
to avoid CALLING by the rubbing of i'll
fitting harness. As prevention is the
best cure, it is well that owners Of horse:
should exercise all possible precautions
to avoid the frequent disorders which
result from neglect in the direction
pointed out, and thus save much annoy.

SHOULD THE ELECTORS CHOOSE

The Constitution gives to Congress the
power of saying on what "ofiicer" shall
devolve the duties of the President in the
event of the inability or removal of both
the President and Vice-President being
declared. \ debated question now is,
whether this confers the power to author
ize the Presidential Electors to re-assem-
bic, if Congress so directs, and select to
fill the vacancy. The question of the con-
stitutionalify of anAct of Congress to that
end is thus directly raised. 1t is claimed
that when the Electors have first chosen,
their functions utterly cease and cannot be
revived. The Constitution declares that
Congress may provide by law for the fill
ing of the vacancy until the disability is
removed or a President be elected Mr..
Hoars bill has passed the Senate, provid-
ing that the system of a special elections
shall be abandoned, and in lieu thereof the
Presidential duty shall deyolye upon
Cabinet officers. The Randall bill clothes
such officers with authority only until
such time as the Electoral College can be
convened, and new election held by it.
We cannot see that the latter bill is any
less constitutional than the former, for the
proposition is not to set up any new body
or official, but to use machinery provided
by the people for specified purpose-that
of naming the chief executive officer of
the Republic. But when it comes to the
wisdom of the policy it is totally differ
ent question. 1t seems to Us that SO large
body as the Electoral College cannot be
readily convened. Necessarily it must be
fruitful of vacancies and disqnalifcations
in its own body, and to fill these would
amount in most cases to a special election,
so that the Randall proposition is not a
material departure in that regard, from the
law as it now stands, providing for special
elections.
