Among the most prominent advo-
Gates in this country of dehorning
adult cattle is Mr.. H. H. Haaff, farm
er of Geneseo, ILL.,, who has now and
then published statements of his
methods Of performing the operation,
and who claims that if properly done it
inflicts but little suffering upon the an
imals 50 treated. But Mr.. Haaff is now
being subjected to prosecution under
the state law for the prevention Of cruel
ty to animals, the action being brought
by an agent Of the Illinois Humane
Society. The evidence relied upon by
the prosecution, and which was all in
troduced recently, was evidence of
the act of dehorning cattle by Mr..
Haaff (Which was freely admitted by
him), and the expert testimony Of
Health Officer DeWolf and Veterinari-
an Baker, OF this CITY, and Of State
Veterinarian Paaren, that act was
necessarily cruel one and caused great
suffering to the animal. The court
adjourned from Saturday till Tuesday
Of this week, when the defendant will
open his case. A large number of
witnesses have been subpnnied and the
trial is expected to last several days.
The matter is one of no little interest to
farmers, and especially to feeders. If
the suffering which dehorning an ami
NAL causes is necessarily great. and for
a considerable time, the practice must
be condemned on humane grounds.
spite of the benefits resulting from it.
But if, as claimed by Mr.. Haaf and
others the pain is but transient, not in
any way affecting the health or life Of
the animal, it is as justifiable as is the
act of castrating male animals, and If
we are to believe the testimony of those
who have practiced it the suffering ex-
perienced by the animal is less than
that inflicted by castration or branding.
We trust this case will be carried to q
final decision in the courts, and that all
the light possible will be shed upon it,
especially as to tho degree Of suffering
which the animal experiences. II the
performance of the operation is deemed
by the highest courts as unnecessarily
cruel those who have practiced it will
dcsist from the practice. Ii on the
other hand, the evidence shows that the
suffering is slight, and the operation is
one that may be performed without
subjecting the operator to legal penal
ties, many will avail themselves of the
privilege of getting rid of the horns on
their cattle. especially on unruly and
vicious animals which often by the
vicious use of their horns cause ten
fold atho suffering to other animals
which they would experience in being
deprived Of their horns. The lessening
Of the danger to the human attendants
upon stock by depriving vicious ami
mails Vt the ability to do injury with
their horns is another important phase
Of this question. but is one that cuts lit
tie figure with the average official OLA
humane society, who is apt to be some
thing of crank, and believes that
mankind has no rights which animals
are bound to respect.

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.


Roots for Sheep.
Most farmers are well aware that
roots are very profitable to raise fol-
the cattle to eat in winter. This can
be easily noticed by the success at.
tanned BY the European formers and
live stock raisers, and they have won
for themselves an enviable reputation
for excellent beef, which always brings
the highest market price. The farmers
Of this country practice it to some ex-
tent but not as universally as its i'm
portance deserves. They are easy to
raise, and q very large yield can be
obtained from q small tract Of land,
which of course makes it all the more
profitable on high priced valuable
land, which is really too expensive To
raise the common field crops on, as
they do not yield enough to pay a
desirable interest when raised on such
valuable land. It is fol this reason
principally that SO many roots are
raised in the old country where every
spot of land is planted with something,
and where space is Sc very valuable as
it is in some of these populOus
countries.
It would be well for our American
farmers if they would practice from
the lesson thus taught, but in feeding
the live stock on the farm too much
attention should not be given to the
cattle and large animals at the ex.
pense of the smaller ones. Sheep and
hogs both need good care and judi.
cious feeding to 60 through the winter
in good condition, and roots are es-
pecially valuable as an occasional food
for sheep. The roots should not be
fed too literally, as they Are alto
gether too loosening in their effect, and
If fed this way the sheep will rapidly
degenerate and soon be in q mnch
worse condition than they were before
the roots were fed. But il the roots
are only given occasionally and in con.
nection with good grain diet, they
will act as an appetizer and will
greatly aid in digestion. In this way
the roots are not only valuable for
what nourishment they contain in
themselves but aiding in digestion as
they do, the other food will be better
assimilated.
Its just such little things as this thai
helps to bring the sheep through the
winter, in good shape, which, as all ex.
perienced persons know, is very hard
matter to accomplish successfully. ..
this is indeed a serious time of thu
year for them, and there is nearly
always some that die during the colo
weather, and of course in neglected
cases the number is much larger.
Roots are good enough for sheep
and as they can be obtained SO very
easy and in such large quantities, al
farmers should have at least q few tt
feed occasionally to their sheep ant
young cattle during the cold winte
weather.

Love OF Children.

Poodles do not take the place of

for babies is great. 1t is the children's
paradise. Children are loved and pet

eyes in astonishment and pleasure.
There is no affectation in the matter.
A little child is the pet Of the people.
A baby is every ones admiration, and
here you may see fathers out walking
with their children for the pleasure Of
the children's company. In shops and
all places where people meet, children
are petted, and baby in q shop is
seized and carried by an army of male
admirers.

Sailing Butter,


Now and then we have the plan
commended Of coloring butter by hay-
ing the salt colored and working it in
the butter. after the butter is on the
worker. and measurably free of mois-
ture and buttermilk. We regard the
method as one not to be commended.
The time and place to salt butter is in
the revolving churn, and when the but
ter is in well washed pranules and is
still rather wet. Then salt with quite
strong brine, using more salt than
would be enough if the salt was worked
in with the roller after the butter was
drained and on the worker. Let the
butter, in granular condition, lie in the
brine an hour and it will take no harm.
No more salt will enter the globules Of
butter than it needs, and overplus will
run off of itself. Too much salt can be
ground into butter, by mechanical
force, but it will not absorb any more
than it needs; any more than pork
will. This method avoids the necessity
of working the butter into salvy con.
dition to get it evenly sailed. Within
tour hours after draining off the brine
the butter should be packed, and il
needs but little more working than il
takes to compact it. There will be nc
streaks to work out, if sailed in the
granular state. and the grain being
unbroken, it will keep in good flavor,
longer than if washed and sailed in
any other way. Any man can see thai
such process requires less hard work
and getting it packed early tends tc
preserve the arOma.-U. S. Daiyunaau

seven Points In aailk Setting.

seven POINTS In 01lk S0te10Hs
1. To make the finest favored and
longest keeping butter the cream must
undergo . ripening process by ex-
p0sure to the oxygen of the air while it
is rising. The ripening is very tardy
when the temperature is low.
2. After cream becomes sour, the
more ripening the more il depreciates.
The sooner it is then skinned and
churned the better, but it should not
be churned while too new. The best
time for skimming and churning is
just before acidity becomes apparent.
5. Cream makes better butter to
rise in cold air than to rise in cold
water, and the milk will keep sweet
longer.
4. The deeper milk is set the less
airing the cream gets while rising.
5. The depth Of setting should vary
with the temperature; the lower it is
the deeper milk may be set; tho higher,
the shallower it should be. Milk
should never be set shallow in q low
temperature nor deep in high one.
Setting deep in cold water economies
time. labor and space.
6. While milk is standing for cream
to rise, the purity Of the cream and
consequently the fine flavor and keep
ing Of the butter, will oe injured If the
surface of the cream is exposed freely
to air much warmer than the cream.
Z. When cream is colder than the
surrounding air, it takes up moisture
and impurities from the air. When the
air is colder than the cream, it takes
up moisture and whatever escapes from
the cream. In the former case the
cream purifies the surrounding
air; in the latter case, the ali
helps to purify the cream. The selec.
ton of q creamer should hinge on what
is most desired-highest quality, OF
greatest convenience and economy in
time, space and labor.-Prof l.. b.
