According to z. Z. Emery, agricultur-
ist at the North Carolina experiment
station, the successful calf feeder will
use more tact than force in teaching a
calf to drink. He will never allow a
foolish calf to betray him into passion
or display of brute force. Do not allow
the calf to suck the whole hand or sim
gle finger; but, placing the palm of either
hand over the nose, gently bring it to
the milk held in convenient-sized pail
in the other hand. By separating the
fingers hold back the sides OF the tongue
and insure the entrance of milk when
the calf sucks. If the milk is warm,
there will be less trouble; then give the
calf more or less OF the two fingers, ac-
cording to the success in keeping it in
terested in the milk. When the calf is
doing well the fingers will scarcely be
touching its tongue or lips. If it acts
badly, give the fingers to suck and con-
trive to let in dash of milk, so a sup
now and then will encourage the calf to
continue. have been obliged to dip
my hand repeatedly into the milk and
thus give a taste of it before the calf
would allow its nose to be turned into
the pail. Some calves will drink during
the first to third trial. while others will
need the finger much longer time.

Wherever anything was found wrong
steps had been taken to meet the diff
Guilty. The directors had done their best,
and legal proceedings might be taken
which would evoke further details; but,
il this course were not adopted, the mat

suspicion in consequence of this deplor-
able affair has been thrown over the
whole establishment. the feeling, how

PURE AGRICULTURE.
THE EVIL HABIT OF EGG-EATlNG
PRACTICED BY HENS.

Tact, Not Force, Should be Exercised in
Teaching a Calf to Drink-Cheapest,
Most Effective and Simplest Way to
Prevent Horns Growing on Cattle.
Prof Roberts of Cornell University is
persuaded after several experiments that
caustic potash in stick form, which may
be procured at any drug store, is the
cheapest, most effective and simplest
way to prevent horns from growing
on cattle. He says: "The best time to
apply is early in the life OF the animals,
just as soon as the little horns can be
distinguished by the touch. The hair
should be closely clipped from the skin
and the little horn moistened with water,
to which few drops of ammonia have
been added to dissolve the oily secretion
OF the skin, SO that the potash will read
lily adhere to the surface of the horn.
Care must be taken not to moisten the
skin except on the horn where the pot
ash is to be applied. One end of the
stick OF caustic potash is dipped in wa
ter until it is slightly softened. 1t is
then rubbed on the moistened surface OF
the little horn. The whole operation
need take only few minutes, and The
calf is apparently insensible to it. A
slight scab forms over the budding horn.
and drops off in the course OF a month
or six weeks, leaving perfectly smooth
poll. No inflammation or suppuration
has taken place in any of the trials we
have made. The results of these exper-
iments warrant the following recon-
mendations: l. That for efficiency,
cheapness and ease OF application stick
caustic potash can be safely recommend
ed for preventing the growth of horns.
2. The earlier the application is made in
the life OF the calf the better" Keep
the caustic while not in use SO it will not
be exposed to the air.
