FARM AND GARDEN.
One Method of Teaching Calves to
Drink.

Drink.
F. w. Dunn, Riley Co., Kansas, writes
The Prairie Fdrmer gave several sugges-
tions about teaching a calf to drink, but
they were confined TO the upper-lip
method, as l call it. The difficult part
is teaching the calf to put its nose into
the pail. This is easily done by the
under-lip method. Back the animal into
& corner, holding the pail with right
hand assisted by right leg. Put left arm
over the calfs neck. placing the fingers
IN its mouth from the u7eder side. In
this position the CATS lower lip rests in
the palm of the hand and it hunts dorm
for its feed, and thus puts its nose into
the pail 81 its 0zcn 0ccord. When the
calf begins sucking, slowly withdraw the
fingers, allowing IL to feel about for them
by keeping the finger ends against its
lower lip. The hand is down in the
milk 1 have been equally successful
with this method whether the calf sucked
its dam three days or two or three weeks,
and never needed allow the calf to suck
my fingers after the fourth feeding, and
several drank readily at second. Calves
taught to drink by this method seldom
bunt the pail about, thus spiliing the
milk. Do not attempt TO teach to drink
until they are thoroughly hungry.

Sunfowers and Malaria

The suntlower has long been popularity
supposed to be preventive of malarIous
diseases. The opinion is well founded,
and for the reason that hairy soft leaved
plants are supposed TO greedily take up
malarial gases. The sundower has broad
leaves, and in relation to the size of the
plant large leaf suffice The leaves Of
the sunhOwer were long considered to be
specific for asthma, when dried and
smoked In pipe. The value in this di-
rectiOn has not yet been successfully con-
troverted. We recommend the planting
of the sunfower freely about the house
in all regions where malariaI carnations
are likely to be found This is always
the case in all prairie regions or those
where the original sod is turned The
seeds are produced in profusion, form a
fattening food for poultry, and may be
fed to all farm animals occasionally with
profit The stalks broken up make ex-
cellent kindlings for fires, and thus every
portion OF the plant may be put to good
use
When raised in regular field rows,
plant four feet apart between rows by
twelve inches in the row. Cultivate pre-
cisely as you would Indian corn. When
the heads are ripe cut and carry to the
threshing floor, or cut partially off and
let them hang down on the stalk until
dry and then thresh The stalks may be
cut next to the ground and stacked up
until wanted for fuel FARM fteLd and

Our loss from smut, blight, or mag
gots has been quite small, aud we regard
the crop as reasonably sure. Still, there
is an occasional shortage which amounts
to twenty, thirty, and sometimes even
fifty per cent. Of the crop 1t comes
alike on the well-cared- for and the neg
lected fields in the locality, and some
times over wide extent of country.
This result occurs, perhaps, not more
frequently than once in a decade of
years, and we have not been able to trace
1t to any well defined cause.

cial papers refer to the distrust felt by in
vestors recently regarding American securi-
ties, to which l alluded in cable dispatch
four days ago. The Economist of to-day, for
instance takes as the text for long article
on trans Atlantic shares and bonds this sem
tence, "Tnvestors in this country have be-
come increasingly distrustful of American
railway management In the course of the
article this conservative journal observes,
and evidently apropos of Corsair- Wizardism,
at is true that just at present public opinion
in the United States is more alive than it was
to the necessity for larger degree Of hon
esty in railway management and if this
developes it may ultimately prove beneficial,
but it would be unwlse to expect any decided
change for the better to take place suddenly,
For the present, therefore, American railway
shares remain essentially mere gambling
counters, with the exception of those few
instances where exceptional honesty of man
agement or specially favorable traffic coudi-
tions have given them real value"

FIFTIETH CONGRESS.
House,.

WASHINGTON, April THE house met this
morning at IL 80 IN continuation of Wednes-
days session. The regular order being the
demand, the speaker stated that the pending
question was upon the motion of Mr.. Taylor
that the house resolve itself into u commit
tee of the whole on the direct tax bills. Some
debate ensued between Mr.. Reed and Mr..
Oates looking to a compromise, but none was
arrived at and the fillbustering was re-
sumed. After some time Mr.. Taylor pro-
posed that the house go into committee of the
whole the general debate on the direct tax
bill to be limited to one hour, but no limita-
ton to be fixed upon debate under the five
minute rule. Mr.. Oates objected, but finally
consented to recess until II AS a. m. Mon
day and the house so agreed.
Notwithstanding the apparent willingness
of the opponents of the bill to accept Mr..
Taylor's proposition on Monday, the parlia-
mentary status of the bill remains un~
changed. The proposition, which will prob.
ably be accepted, brings the house practic-
ally back to the same position it occupied
when Mr.. Taylor submitted his first motion
Monday.

TOBACCoNIsTs AT WAR.
The "Star" and the BUZZ Saw" Have
a Round in Court

ST. JOSEPH, Mo-, April Especial Tele-
gram to the BEE. The Sam Reid Tobacco
company moved from Chillicothe to St.
Joseph about nine months ago, and immedi-
ately commenced the manufacture of chew
ing tobacco on an extended scale. The brand
which met with the largest sale was the
"Buzz Saw" which on account of the color
and tin star which was stamped on each
l0-cent plug so closely resembled the "Star''
brand, manufactured by Liggett & Myers, of
St. Louis, that it was impossible for the pur-
chaser to tell the difference between them.
Suit was brought before Judge Spencer in
Chambers to-day and temporary injunction
granted restraining the Sam Reid company
from the further manufacture of the tobacco
until the case is finally decided. The STAR
brand sells for 60 cents per pound, while for
the Buzz Saw'' - cents only is asked and
Lggett Il Myers have found the demand for
their tobacco on steady decline in this sec
tion. The Trade Mark association have
taken up the fight and declare they will carry
the case to the supreme court Another suit
will be filed asking for 100000 damages.
