Live Stock in March.

The neglect of stock in the spring, entails
heavy loss all through the summer; es-
peciallv is this true with horses that have to
carry the burden of spring work. Without
making superfluous flesh, they should be
gradually fed up and kept at work sufficient
to harden them, so that when the blowing
has to be done, they will be in good working
order. You must not stint the supply of
food to the cows that are fresh, or they will
lose so much flesh that the milk yield will
be materially cut down all through the sum-
mtr, for the COW will look after her own
flesh, before she will devote herself to the
milk pail. Give the calves and young things
generally, that generous care that surely
starts them on a successful career. Neglect
of the young is the first step toward shiftless
farming. The cold rains and north winds OF
this month are much more trying on all
kinds of live stock than colder and drier
weather. For this reason keep all stock
housed that can be. Do not allow warm
days to deceive you into keeping the ami
mails out at night. when they are likely to
become painfully chilled.

the dispatch. 1.-THE Governor desires you
will report here this evening in person."
This message was also sent 10 Colonel 1efferts:
"The Governor desires TO know Immediately how
soon the Seventh Regiment can be in readiness to
move 70 Philadelphia Can not the Seventh be
the first regiment
The moment he got reply, Governor Sey-
mour telegraphed to Colonel Lefferts to "pro-
coed forthwith with your regiment as full as
possible to Harrisburg" Other regiments
were hurried off in the. same way within
twenty-four and forty-eight hours of the time
the call was received.
Warm thanks came from President Lincoln
on the 10th, when the first troops moved On
the 18th Secretary Stanton telegraphed again
to the same effect:
The President directs me again to return his
thanks TO His Excelleney, Governor Seymour
and his staff, for their energetic and prompt ac-
This was followed by personal letter from
the President to Governor Seymour.
On the oath of July, after the battle of Get
tysburg and the retreat of Lee, Governor Sey-
mour issued a con yratulatery order to the
troops who had responded to his call:
1.-THE Governorand Commander-in- Chief of the
military forces of the State of New York, upon

the State whose name and arms they are proud TO

"If our militia system is allowed to decay, all
our institutions are weakened. The militia is
the main strength of the Executive to maintain

beyond our limits and have returned to put
down riot arson and robbery at home they have
aided in defending the national flag and honor
upon the battlefelds of other States, and, that
done, their tread upon the pavements os this

These words and the acts that accompa-
MED them may well be recalled, now that
Horatio Seymour has passed away.

Spring Flowing.

In blowing small fields, it is the easiest
way to set pillow in at the bars entering the
field, and follow the fence around. Besides,
If the work is to be done by proxy. the plow-
man needs little watching. except TO see that
he keeps his burrows true and ofthe requ red
depth, and lays the sod well over. that one
is tempted to allow it, and thus at every
blowing the soil is heaped up against the
outside of the field. "Back-furrowiDg." or
fleftabout," is, of course, the only remedy.
Compton farm hands make such b1ngling
work Of this that il is necessary TO stake
ont the fnyrows for them and watch them
besides, especially in irregular fields When
properly done, the entire field is plowed in

one 'land," unless it is very much broken
up. The old dead burrows, left when the
field was last plowed, may ordinarily be
seen, and will serve as a guide. They will
probably be found quite accurately
in the center. To lay out lot for back-fur-
rowing the line of the first row should be
well staked midway between two parallel
sides. 1t should not come nearly to the
other sides, and in blowing the land plowed
should initiate in its beginning and progress
the finish'of field plowed outward from
the center. Thus. after blowing a few far
rows, carrying the pillow around at th3 ends
of the land, the pillow is run across the ends
and not taken out again until the field is
finished. In blowing old ground for spring
grain the dead burrows will come in the
middle of the field in all probability, unless
it be plowed in several lands. To make
smooth work after the land is plowed turn
half dozen burrows left about back into
the dead furrow, blowing the two inner ones
deep, and the next two shallower, and the
next two mere scratches. Thus plewed the
field may be sowed and seeded down with
out dead furrow, if well narrowed.

cine Farmer Pays for All"

The correlation and independence OF all
labor, and the way that it pulls at last on
agriculture, are set forth in as deeply hid
den way as the unutterable philosophy
which they say is hidden in the Shakespeare
plays, in that profound bucohc allegory, in
which the bereft little mouse. trying to re-
deem from the knightly cat its long tail,
goes to the COW for milk for the cat, and the
COW demands hay for the milk, for which
the mouse goes to the farmer, who gives the
hay, for which the COW lets go the milk, for
which the cat relinquishes the tail. All the
forcing of wages, all the protection and all
the cutting off of tails, come at last upon
agriculture, in which is none of the luxury
of unions, strikers, boycotts and knights.

Preparing for Spring Work.


The comparative idleness of winter makes
the horses shoulders tender, and unless they
are hardened, blowing viii soon make them
sore. The best hardener is strong, pure
brine. Apply it with arag tied around the
end of corn-cob. During the work season,
as soon as the collar is removed, wash the
shoulders and apply tle salt water. It. tough
ems the flesh, and also coOls the shoulder, al
laying all irritation and Inflammation. Dis
card all collars much worn, and select new
ones now when you have plenty of time.
Take the horse 10 the harnessshop; do not
Duy a collar until you get one that fits we'll.
1t is acOmmon fault that one side is harder
than the other; be careful to get collar of
equal firmness throughout and not lumpy,
and if it fits perfectly, the firmer it is the
better.
Give all the harness an oiling now, be-
cause the oil will be absorbed better than
when the weather is warm. Take the har-
ness to pieces and wash it clean with luke
warm water, using dull knife about the
buckles to remove the dirt. Use pure
neats-foot oil (you will have to pay good
price for it, but use no other) with enough
caster oil TO scent it, and keep the mice
away. Apply the oil moderately warm on
10th sides of the leather, all this is rapidly
absorbed. Then hang the harness in an
airy place to dry thoroughly. Two
oillngs of harness, except the collars, a
year is enough; but the collars
should be oiled every two weeks during
the work season, and the sweat and dirt be
removed each morning with dull knife.
Give the woodwork of the plows coat of
paint. Mineral paint is very cheap and an
swers this purpose as well as more expensive
paints. But use the best of oil. If the
plOws are dull, take them all to the shop
now, when work is not pressing. Strengthen
weak Places Do not wait for breaks; they
always occur when the article is in use,
hence they occasion delay. Give the whiffle-
trees the same attention recommended for
the plows. About the easiest way to make
a dollar is to take time by the forelock.

TIE LABOR QUESTION IN TIE OHIO

TIE LABOR QUESTION IN TIE OHIO
HOUSE.
The Ohio House of Representatives has
passed an eight-hour law which now goes
to the Senate. 1t provides that in ali en-
eagements in labor in any mechanical or
manufacturing business, q days work, when
the contract is silent upon the subject, or
where there is no express contract, shall
consist of eight hours, and all agreements
contracts Or engagements in reference to
such labor shall be so construed.
This is step meant TO be in the right
direction, but if it was worth while making
it all at present, it shonld have gone fur
Their. Mr.. MCBRIDE's amendment that q
penalty should be attached to the employ
ment Of all labor for more than eight hours
per day, except upon farms, would have
had some effect. But if the bill passes the
Senate in the same form 50 it did the
House, it will be q dead letter on the stat
ute books, and that is about all.
No men of any business capacity ever
thinks of employing labor without some
understanding as 10 the hours of labor
Ii may be understood By agreement Of
custom. But with such an optional eight
hour Law as the one above mentioned, mer
will make contracts with their men and &C
on employing them the same number Of
hours 90 before.
1t may be, as Col. PooRNAN argued, thai
Ohio is not Jet ready fora rigid eight hour
law. But whetE er the State is ready Oh
not there is no need OF making farce O.
| the matter.
1t is thought the Senate will adopt al
amendment similar to Mr.. MCBRIDE )
But if rot adopted now, it is highly probs
bic that Ohio, and many other States tina
employ much lsbOr,ssving machinery, vii
sooner or later have to pass such law
Men must have some way to earn living
It is better to divide the work and profit
with them than to support them in idle
ness-an idleness that may be no fault o
J theirs.
