How to Lead Young Animals in the Way
They Should Go.
The term breaking as applied to
the domestic animals, has an unpleas-
SIT significance. It indicates bad
management forcibly remedied. a
calf or colt should be trained from
birth, and it should be gradually led
ia the way it should o-the word
educated" has precisely this mean
ing by a constant progressive course
of kind and considerable treatment. A
heifer calf should be weaned at ito
birth. If its natural instructive pro-
clivities are to be repressed and OBJ.
liberated, this is the time to begin, be-
fore the germs of these have had OPP
portunity to grow into q habit Hence
a calf should not be permitted to suck
the dam and should be taught to
drink from a pail. Have leather
collar strong enough to hold it, with
ring sewn in it, and a rope with snap
hook attached to tie it with in the pen.
Then it should be handled (brushed is
better) quite frequently, until it is
used to it and makes no resistance, but
rather likes it. As it grows older its
udder and teats should be rubbed and
pulled. as if in milking. This not only
makes it docile, but it helps the de-.
velopment of the udder, and increases
its future capacity. A heifer may be
brought to milk in this way before it
has had calf, and instances of this
tactical precocity are not infrequent in
diaries where calves are permitted to
suck each other, although this is a
great mistake, and is provocative Of
vicious habits, such as self-sucking
and sucking other cows. When the
heifer has a calf it is already trained,
and breaking, with the discipline of
club, a boot or milking-stool, will
not be required. American Agricult-

The law is supposed to be an engine
to administer justice, but it seems
sometimes to defeat itsend A peculiar
case in point is that of Massachusetts,
woman who married man in good
faith nineteen years ago and lived with
him as his wife until his death, in 1888.
She then learned that her supposed
husband was already m; FRIED when he
married her; that his wife is still liv-
ing, and that no decree of separation
has ever been entered. Learning that
she had no legal right to his property,
she sued TO recover for services as his
housekeeper
Here the law stepped In and tn
formed her that as she lived with the
late lamented as his wife she had DO
claim on him for services as servant
and that as she was no wife in law,
though undeniably so in fact, no
dover right can be maintained. She
seems to be just enough wife to defeat
her claim for recompense as q servant,
but not enough TO establish her claim
to share in his estate. This may be

There ia surprising recklessness rogAA
Ing the preservation of monuments
erected by the government surveyors
throughout the northwest. The surveyor
of Brown, county, Dakota, gives this
timely warning in a local paper: ]
notice lamentable want Of care Of tho
government corners among the farmerB
and landowners Of the country. Where
stakes existed they are rotted off, often
pulled out and used for f1rewood; the
mounds are erased by cattle or travel,
the pits are filled up and obliterated, and
soon, if not already, no certain evidence
will remain of their exact location. Now
need not enlarge on the very greatimpoft-
ance of preserving these points to mark
on boundary lines. Residents from the
east can recall any amount Of trouble
arising from some ''lost corner,' doubts,
disputes, litigation and perchance a big
surveyors bill. Therefore, let every one
of these corners receive the prompt at.
tention necessary to make it definite and
permanent. Since each corner has an
individuality Of its own, owing to the
marked irregularities of the government
surveys, it is n mistake to think that
lost corner may readily be restored by
measurements from adjacent oornerA
For enduring monuments I would sug-
gest pointed stone or iron rod, or where
