Heifer calves, even from cows chat

able. Good cows are always IN de-
mand. and one probable way to get
them is to save the heifer calves.
The colts from mares that have
shown speed are carefully cared for
until they can demonstrate what
there is in them. But the calf is too
often regarded 40 pretty nearly
worthless. It is not certain, of
course, that the calf Of an extraordi.
nary common cow will have the
merits OF the dam. But we can well
afford to wait and see. On the other
hand, the calf Of a common cew may
prove much better than the COW, and
we can afford to wait and see whether
or not that is true, 70 indulge in
the wholesale destruction of heifer
calves is a good deal like destroying
a crop before it ripens. Of one thing
we are all cognizant: There is room
for an imm ense number of better
COWS than We have, and it may be
that there is room upon the farms of
some who may read this article. The
loss from keeping inferior cows has
frequently been referred to, and the
subject is being So constantly agitat-
ed, that the work of replacing in
ferior stock with that which is bet.
ter is going steadily on. Hence there
is a constant demand for good cows,
and is would seem to be the part of
wisdom to utilize the means that are
placed in our hands to supply the de-
mand. No risk is run. IF the calf
does not prove what it should be as a
cow, we can get our money cut of it
readily enough. -f......
We should certainly turn over a
new leaf in this matter, and not
throw away dollars for a few cents
any longer. It IS not difficult to raise
a calf, and there is money in it in
the long run. Suppose we>try it for
q few years. A FARMER.

How to Use a Grindstone.

A grindstone is one Of the worst
used implements en- the farm. or in
the work, shop. Few take the trouble
to think about their work, and conse-
quently the great majority of people
fail to get the NEST and best use
from their tools. The few Who do
think will agree with us when we
say that a grindstone is both badly
used and badly chosen. 1t is too
small too thick Fit is not evenly and
truly set and centred ; it is not prop.
erly speeded, and is turned either too
fast and made to throw the
water around. or to slow, and so fails
to do its work well it is not well
taken care Of, and it is badly used. A
grindstone to do good service. should
be at least three feet in diaaeteY
and twoaad oHe-kaH to three inches
IN thickness, having beyel Oh
each side of the face for grinding on.
II should be quite free from hard
spots of iron pyrites. which are in
furious to tools, although these may
be taken out with a sharp pointed
punch. II it is not centerd truly, ID
will work out OF shape, and soon
require trueing up. 1t should run as

from throwing water, a piece of
bagging should be fastened to q

grind it out r this will catch the sx,
cess of water and yet keep the stone
wet enough and clean it. The stone
should be kept in the shade, and
never in water, which softens ID and
makes one side wear a fater than the
ether. The water boz should have
a hole in it, to let out the water and
keep the stone dry when not in use.
In grinding it should mostly turn
from the stool, and If used other
wise, great care should be taken
by the one who holds the tool, not to

Instea d of thinking and singing

beneath the gentle ways of heavenly
laws, that we may walk now and
always in the clear light of heaven.
Here are tive or three words Of the
angel who came to the help of the
imprisoned apostles, that are worthy
of little bordering. These early
teachers of Christian truth are
charged to 60 into the temple and
speak to the people "the words of
this life." The teachings Of Chris
are for the life that is as
holy as for the life that is to come.
