DEHORNlNG CATTLE.
Tho Argumen Advanced In Its Favor by
Stock RaiserS.

The practice of dehorning cattle is
rapidly increasing not only in the West,
but in some sections of the Eastern and
Middle States. The chief objection
urged against dehorning has been the
cruelty Of the operation; 4 lesser one
is that it detracts from the appearance
of the animal. The second objection
remains, but the great majority Of those
who have practiced dehorning contend
that it is no more painful, if as painful,
as other operations generally prac-
ticed. However this may be, it is fair
" safe to conclude that dehorning,
carefully performed, is not a dangerous
operation. The arguments advanced
in favor of dehorning cattle are: First,
the prevention of terrible accidents in
handlingviciou cattle, especially bulls;
second, that the dehorncd cattle can
be turned loose in sheds and stalls
without fear of their injuring each
other, even if they are more or less
crowded. The subject has received
considerable attention this season at
the farmers institutes and clubs, and
if reports of these meetings may be
relied upon the farmers and breeders
who have experimental in dehorning
their cattle almost with one accord ia
vor the practice, From these and other
sources it appears that the preferred
apa ,t which IN dpilorn is in the second
year OF the animals life, and spring is
the season favored. The operation, it
is averred, is more successful in mod
crate weather, than in either extremes
Of heat or cold. Preparatory to the
operation the animals head is made
fast; then the horns are awed off with
stsuitable saw close to the hair. where
soft place occurs in the horns. -I'1di-

as it is suggestive. She says: Il can

Judgment will approve of n man SELL

letting men, women and children go
in and out with pitchers of beer and
never say word to them. / think the
Sunday law ought to be enforced, so.
that the drunkards wife and children
may have something to eat on Mon

liquor stores, with their costly window

ONLY ONE CROP.

There came a man in days of old,
To hire piece of land for gold,
And urged his suit in accents meek,
One crop alone is all 1 seek
That harvest DER, my claim yield,
And to its Lord resign the field.
The owner some misgivings felt,
And coldly with the stranger dealt,
But found his last objection fail,
And honeyed eloquence prevail;
So took the proffered price in hand,
And for one crop leased out the land.
The willy tenant sneered with pride,
And sowed the spot with acorns wide;
AT first like tiny shoots they grew,
Then tall and wide their branches threw.
But long before those oaks, sublime, -
Aspiring, reached their forest prime
The cheated landlord mouldering lay,
Forgotten, with his kindred clay.
o. We whose years, unfolding fair.
Are fresh with youth, and free from care,
Should vice or Incidence desire
The garden OF your souls to hire,
No parley hold reject the suit,
Nor let one seed the soil pollute.
My child, their first approach beware;
With firmness break the insidious snare,
Lest, as the acorns grew and throve
Into sun-excluding grove,
Thy SINS a tall, o'ershadowing tree,
Shut out the light of Heaven from thee.
