The First Eastern Dishorner.

l have dishorned a good many cattle
and calves for my neighbors, in some
cases whole diaries, but mostly vicious
bulls and ugly COWS. In the west, where
wholesale %dishorning is practiced, a
special chute is used which secures the
animal and permits rapid work. This
chute is carried from farm to farm by
professional dishorners, but I use the
rope and ring, having first placed the
animal in an ordinary COW yoke or
stanchion. The head is turned to one
side and securely tied to the yoke; when
one horn is removed the head is turned
the other way and the next horn is taken
off. This takes only a short time. I use
Haaf's dishorning saw, although I have
dishorned bulls with a stiff backed car
penter saw.
With a pair of shears / remove the
long hair at the base of the horn SO that
it cannot obstruct the saw and 1 can see
better what l am doing, then I take off
half or three-quarters of an inch Of flesh
with the horn. If no flesh is taken off a
stub will form and be unsightly. The
wound heals rapidly. The hair grows
CIT and curls over the place, covering it
", entirely. always spread pine tar
on a long strip of muslin six or eight
inches wide, lay it over the wounds and
tie it under the neck. 1t will stay on
for some time. This helps healing, shuts
out flies in summer and prevents cold
in winter.
l would just as soon dishorn an ami
NAL right in the dog days as in the dead
of winter. The wound bleeds but little
sometimes not enough to speak Of
and a COW may shrink a little in her
milk yield for two or three messes only.
There appears to be no shock to the
health, for the dishorned animals go
right on as if nothing had happened, ex-
cept that they become very submissive
and do not attempt to rule the rest of
the dairy. Dishorning is a humane act,
for it saves human life and has come to
stay.-M. N. G. Gardiner in Rural New
Yorker.

Points of Interest.

A correspondence of The Southern Farm
writes that he has solved the problem of
feeding cotton seed to hogs. If the seed
is fed in the dry state it will certainly
kill the swine on account Of it's heating
and swelling tendencies. On the other
hand, feed cotton seed when it is wet
and after it has been thoroughly soaked
in water, and it will as certainly feed and
fatten hogs. The writer has damned up
a pond in the brook in his mule lot, and
in this pond he soaks the cotton seed,
which he afterward feeds to his hogs
with excellent results.
Two tablespoonfuls of pulverized cop
peras mixed with a pint of salt and
placed in a box where it can be got at by
the animals at any time will prevent
worms in colts. Horses suffering from
the same ailment can be cured by giving
them a tablespoonful of powdered gen.
tan every night with their oats for two
or three weeks.
If by breeding the horns off sheep and
cattle is meant first dehorning the ami
mails and then breeding from them it
p4oU6D1y CdAAO0 NC uOuS. but IL Gall D6
accomplished in course of time by breed
ing from animals born hornless.
If you suspect your sheep have been
exposed to the %contagion of foot rot
stand them for a few minutes in a
trough containing M part of the strong
carbolic acid to 200 parts of water to dis
infect them.
Copperas and gentian together form
an excellent tonic for horses. The Ameri-
al Liveryman says: Mix four ounces of
each thoroughly in the powdered state;
keep the mixture tightly shut up in a
box or bottle and give a tablespoonful of
it in the horses feed at night. To colts
a smaller quantity must be given.
Some of our live stock and creamery
writer's are wrestling with the mighty
question whether or not q long tail is a
sign of a good dairy COW
so excessively fat as those from else
where, particularly those from the
United States Our hogs are in Europe
considered too fat. The Danish swine
are fattened and slaughtered at a year
old. The most popular weight for a pork
CARCASS is 200 pounds.

ROW AT A DANCE,
A Tough the Cause of a Tragedy

A Drunken Tough the Cause of a Tragedy
in a Colorado Ballroom,
DURANGO, Colo, Aug. 3.-News has
just been received here of a terrible
tragedy which occurred at a ball in the
Blue mountains last Friday night.
While the dancing was gong on, a
tough character by the name of Tom
Roach insisted upon dancing. He was
not allowed to dance and raised a row.
Frank H. Hyde tried to quell the dis
turbance and was stabbed by Roach in
several places. A cowboy by the name
of William McCord tried to pscify
Roach. This seemed to enrage Roacl,
more than ever, and drawing his gun
ne killed McCord on the spot. A boy
slipped away to a house near by and Sc
curing a Winchester returned to the
ballroom and took aim and fired at
Roach, killing Mrs. Walton, an estima-
BILE lady living in the community. In
the excitement Roach escaped and is
still at large.

RATES TO

Another Cut Made by the 500 to the G.

MINNEAPoLIs, July 31.- The pro-
nouncement by the Michigan Central
that it would not honor tickets to the
G. A. r. encampment issued by the 500
road has stirred the blood of the latter,
and the result is that the 500 rate to the
Detroit encampment is nov $l6.5 80. The
500 managers say that the threat of the
Michigan Central to have no cars at
Mackinaw City to meet the G.. A. r.
people via the 500 will not go. The 500
says every passenger will be landed in
Detroit, and it is thought an arrange
ment is being made with the Grand
Rapids and Indiana road.

NOTES FOR THE WOMEN.

IN Lapland dress fashions have not
changed for one thousand years.
QUEEN ELIZABETH started the style of
wearing silk stockings and Marie An
toinette instituted the custom of wear
ing feathers in the hair.
NINE. HENRI GREvILIE, who has seen
more of this country than most French
women, says the American woman
makes too many acquaintance and too
few friends.
WHEN it is desired to have the gloves
cover the entire arm, as may occur with
evening dress, they are secured to the
shoulders by straps of satin ribbon that
buckle on the gown.
NOBODY wears wells adorned with
beauty spots now unless the dots of
court-plaster are arranged with a clever
eye to detail and eftect-in other words.

tulle veil was held in place by three
stars.
