It's Improvement aud Rearing the Road
tn Prosperity.
English agricultural journals. while
praising the great average yields per
acre Of the grain crops of that country.
are constantly urging the extension OF
livestock breeding. The great average
yields of grain in Great Britain are only
possible by the liberal use not only Of
barn-yard MANURE, but Of commercial
fertilizers in connection with the most
precise cultivation. The English have
also brought the breeding Of animals
to the highest pcrfcction-a perfection
nowhere else reached except in the
United States and Canada.
The reason why the English press so
urgently advise the extension Of 1.-Two
stock is, that in the cultivation OF
cereal grain. even with the obstacles
thrown about the importation of for
eign products, the profits are growing
less and less year by year. In this the
English landlords are in the same cate
CORY as are those Of countries where
the price of land is too high for the
cultivation of the coarscr grains. The
soil must be used for special crops clso
rents must fall. II is well known that
this has been the case of late years, and
during the last year concessions have
been made to the extent Of from eight
cen 10 thirty per cent. on rents, not
only In Ireland hut in England.
Livestock is the basis Of successful
agriculture in all countries since with.
out manure there can be no crops un.
less on virgin soil; and the higher the
cultivation the better tho manure pays.
II would seem that England had al
ready carried the breeding and feeding
OF livestock to the full capacity of the
country. England buys largely also OF
our coarse grains and oil-cake to feed
to animals. II the livestock industry
| is still further increased England must
call upon us still further for feeding
| stun. 10 THIS our iaIli'IS wiz NV wv
ject, Of course. II England and tho
Continental countries see fit to throw
obstacles in the way of our sending
livestock and meats to their countries,
well and good. We can not help our
selves, except that by common consent
we can refuse to buy gewgaws OF them.
In the meantime there can be no good
rcason who not only England but every
other country should push its livestock
interests to the utmost. That is what
Western farmers certainly should do.
It is cheaper to send the manufactured
product to market than the raw ma.
terial. and tho manure is worth rs
much to Western farms as to any Other
land. No farmer ever got rich raising
the coarse grains for market, and only
| In very limited degree can they so b.
used. Feed the grain on the farm and
sell stock.-Chieoso Tribune.

was deemed a profitable crop between
1860 and 1868. when cotton was high
and the fiber was in demand. Now the
fiber Is either wasted or sold for three
10 six dollars per ton, when 1t can be
sold at all. The price of seed is like
wise reduced. Some farmers object to
the crop on the ground that 1t increases
the labor ut harvest time.

HORSE AGAINST boo.

Yesterday afternoon q fierce bulldog
and Q vicious young mare, belonging 1
George Runyon, q farmer OF Stanley, N
j.. engaged In Q curious aght. The dos
and the horse were stable companions, but
the latter had q strong dislike for thu
former. The mare broke her halter yester'
day and seized the dog In her teeth. The dot
retaiiated by biting the horses nose. The
two now thoroughly Infatuated brutes then
fought desperately. The dog would spring
at It's foe only to be sent flying clean
across the barn. The wild neighs and
kicking and barks attracted number Oh
people to the scene, but none dare inter-
fere with the frenzied combatants. The
dog secured q Arm grip on the mares
neck, and was tossed and knocked against
the sides OF the building in the attempts
made by the horse to dislodge him. The
mare finally lowered her head. and, placing
her fore foo, on the dogs body. literally
tore It of. In one Of its mad rushes the dog
was seized by the mare aud thrown nearly
to the top OF the barn, but 1t returned to
the fight Immediately.
At last the dog sank It's fangs into the
fore. leg OF the mare, and in attempting
to reach the dogs head the horse fell
directly on its foe and crushed It's life out.
The victorious animal gave shrill neigh,
and turning, kicked the body OF the dog
until 1t was crushed into u sEapelcss mass.
When Mr.. Runyon returned he entered
the stable and found the mare trotting
about the place, weak from loss OF blood.
Her legs and neck were horribly ineerated
and the sinews laid bare, while her nose
was almost gone. As the animal could not
