Dehornipg Cattle by No Means
Cruel

Many shrink from the practice Of de-
horning cattle because of the apparent
cruelty to the animals, TO say nothing of
the labor and trouble and the back-set
given the animal. To avoid all of this il
is much better to use some method of
preventing the growth. Several ways of
doing this are now being used. The de-
partment of agriculture suggests a method
as follows: Mix fifty parts caustic soda,
twenty-five parts Of kerosene oil and
twenty-five parts of water. An emulsion is
made of the kerosene and soda by heating
and vigorously STIRRING, ana this is then
dissolved in water. The mixture should
then be placed in a bottle with a solid
rubber cork. In applying, the calf should
not be over three weeks old, five
to twenty days being the prop
er age. With-a pair of scissors clip the
hair around the embryo horn, exposing a
spot about the size of a nickel. Hold the
calf securely, and drop two or three drops
Of the mixture upon the horn, with the
end of the rubber cork rub IL in thor
oughly over the bare spot Apply the
fluid first to one horn and then the other
until each horn has been gone over three
or four times. The rubbing should be
continued until the caustic has softened
and removed the hair and surface of the
skin Immediately around the horn. Care
should be taken that the fluid does not
spread over large surface or run down
the sides of the face. The mixture must
be carefully and thoroughly applied il
used carelessly the em Dryo horn may not
only be killed, but the face Of the calf

know it makes a difference what the soil
is. On loose, light, rich soils tillage is of
less Importance. On heavier lands some
what deficient in vegetable matter from
long cropping, tillage is most needed. On
such soilsit will pay to get good tools and
keep plenty of horses, as cheap as they
are now, and then use them This is what
do and preach, and have done for many
years, and have preached for long time.
But my preaching is all come boys" not
go boys, YOU notice. Don't forget,
however, to get more vegetable matter in
your soils as fast as you can by clover

Humus Essential to Perfect Com
plsGeo Fertilizer

1t is commonly said that a complete"
fertilizer need contain only the three
mineral elements which are usually def
Gent in the soil, viz: potash, phosphoric
acid and nitrogen. Practically, however,
we find that though a soil may be rich in
each Of the elements which go to make
up the plant, it is impossible to secure
good, or even fair crops, unless it con-
tains, in addition to these, a liberal sup
ply of humus, which is formed whenever
vegetable matter decays in the soil, and
it is in the formation of this ma
terial that the practice of blowing under
green crops has its greatest value. 1t is
plentiful in all fresh soils, but becomes
exhausted by continued cultivation in
hoed crops, especially in the hill lands,
and the supply must be renewed before
chemical fertilizers can be used to ad-
vantage. 1t is the necessary foundation
of all fertility, and without it the use of
any chemical fertilizer is sure TO be dis
appointing. If the fertilizers used do not
contain Misunderstanding material it must,
sooner or later, be supplied by the plow-
ing under of green crops, or by turning
the land out to rest" Exactly!

srALKs AND STRAW.

One reason why corn fodder and straw
have a low feeding value is that they are
coarse foods. They must be made finer
before they are fed To obtain the best
results they should be fined by being run
through a cutter and softened either by
mixing with roots and grain or steamed
or dampened with hot water. 1t may
safely be said that unless these things
are done it will be impossible 20 obtain
the full feeding value of these coarse
foods. The saving of three tons of hay in
a season would pay all the cost of cutting
and softening stalks and straw. That is
worth thinking over.

Chips and FagRots.

The Rural New Yorker reports that
crimson clover, sown Aug 25 in New
Jersey, lived through the winter in good
condition, though the thermometer was
at one time g. below zero. This hardi-
ness of crimson clover will adapt it to
many localities where it had been sup
posed impossible to grow it. If it will
endure cold % below zero, it ought to
be safe to grow almost anywhere in Penn
sylvania, Southern New England and
Western New York.
KEEP HOGS GROWING IN SUMNER.
1t takes very little grain to keep hogs
in thrifty condition when they are at pas
ture. Grain fed at this time gives much
larger return than will the increased
quantity given when the hogs are put up
for fattening. The clover and grass they
eat are less valuable for the nutriment
that they contain than they are for
keeping digestion in good order, so that
the richer food given may do the most
possible in building up frame and putting
on fat

THEIR RECORD on SILVER.

As the Republicans are evidently
shaping their policy to pretend to be
friends of silver, it is just as well to
examine little into their record on
the subject 1t is what parties do
when in power, and not what they
promise to do while out, that settles
the question of their intention and
sincerity. Briefly told the Repub-
lican record on silver is as follow:
Demonetized silver, 1878.
Defeated coinage bill, 1875.
Defeated free coinage in 1873, and
substituted the silver purchasing act
in the house. June %, 1886, % Re-
Republicans voted for silver and $50

for silver, 80; against, 80. June z,

An UNUSUAL BABY.

Near the great city of London the
other night lit.le boy was borne;
many little boys, for that matter,
but this particular infant was a re-
markable one. Not that he looked
in the least remarkable, for in APP
appearance he was simply one baby of
a multitude, and certainly if some
body had maliciously exchanged him
for any other boy borne in the great
city on that night even the parents
themselves would never have known
the difference. Very red of COM
plexion was he, very vigorous OF
lung, very blinky Of eyes, very use.
less, idealess and generally prepos
ferrous. On that eventful night he
did not know enough even to suck
his thumb, and when q Square
meal" was offered to him he struck
blindly at the giyer. After time
he tried to steer his hand to his
mouth, and when he found his ear
instead he wept bitterly. In the
heavens above, or the earth beneath,
or the waters under the earth, you
shall fad nothing more absurd and
pitifully helpless than the baby borr
in London the other night, which
was so exactly like all other babies
that We're a few of them mixed in
one big cradle the task of identifying
them would be hopeless ole. Yet
ON the birth OF this red and so use
less boy guns were fired, messages
sent around the world on The wings
Of lightning, monarchs congratulated,
delegations called, bells were rung
and the great public rejoiced. For
this little wailins bit of humanity, 50
like other little WALL bits, differed
from them in that his parents were
the Duke and Duchess of York and
he was an heir to the throne of Great
Britain. Hence the ringing of bells,
the delegations and the reloicings.
Yet. perhaps knowsl-ou that
same night was somewhere born
child who, apparently unblessed by
chance, and all unknown u the
world, shall wiring from obscurity
Life's reward of merit and by ster-
ling effort attain height which the
little heir to throne may never
know. This is the opportunity that
your child has if he was well lowered
in the hour af his birth, birthright
that might, if one but knew it, be
ulwisely exchanged for the accident
OF fate that makes the babe Prince.
Before the boy who first walled IN a
London palace the other night passes
out of life it may be that the people
will conclude that their rejoicing was
blind and misapplied; the birth of a
Prince has before now proved to be
no cause for popular gladness. Still
everybody may hope that it will be
different in this case.
