On Sunday evening, April 18th, three
men lost their lives on Tough Conn. A.
party Of five were rowing about that day !,
and it is stated put in and got drunk In
one Of the public houses which the mag
istrates have licensed on the shore. They
were: Peter Harrison, & man OF mature
years, in employment on Castle Gore
demesne, and his servant boy, Murphy, ,
and three, boys named Stubs, whose
father is also employed at Castle Gore.
There was nothing in the weather .or
condition of the lake, to account for the
accident At about $3.50 a daughter of
Mrs Hope, who resides at Wherein,
close to Castle Gore, who was out for an
article which was left to dry, heard
screams across the lake. She called her
brother who in turn called a neighboring
boy named Cosgruve, and they went,
down to the shore, launched boat, and
rowed in the direction whence the cries:
were heard. They searched about for
time and finally came upon an upturned
boat, to. which were clinging Harrison
and one of the st1lbbs, both in dazed
state, and on the point of dropping. 1t
was no easy matter to get the two help
less men into the boat, in. the dark also,
but. this Hope and his assistant succeed
ed in doing at great personal risk, and
the men were taken to shore and restor-
ed to animation. The others had drop
ned off and were drowned. '@S.'s%s

THE FARM.

Just now there is a good deal Of
talk about the wonderful quantities
of sacaline, which is advertised as
a forage plant of great value. We
are assured that it will stand all
extremes of wet or dry weather,
and that 1T is marvelously product
i've and nutritious; in short, it is
the long sought for forage plant,
adapted to all climates, conditions
and soils, and when once rooted it
requires no further care or cultiva-
ton. There is absolutely no
ground upon which 10 base all the
preposterous claims as to the value
of this plant. 1t is undoubtedly
hardy and an enormous grower,
but as a forage plant it is not like
ly to be of much value, for the
simple reason that stock will not
eat 1t unless they are starved to it.
And the stock know pretty nearly
what they want.

Corn silage is the best and cheap

There is not enough difference
between the feeding value of white
and yellow corn, we would say to
an inquirer, to make it worth con-
sideration.
For the past three years, says
Mrs. M. Duesler in Agricultural
EpitomiSt, ] have killed the horns
Of the calves, and.fnd ii a much
better way than cutting them off
the cows. My plan is to take
caustic potash, and when the calf
is three weeks old, or sooner, if
the button shows sufficiently, and
moisten it around the same, press
the hair back from around it and
apply the caustic by rubbing until
the horn looks nearly raw and the
hair which comes in contact with
the caustic is loose and comes out
by picking at it. The operation
doesn't seem to give the calf any
pain. / do the work myself, and
the cautery or sore spot soon dries
down to black hard scab, which
drops off in few weeks and leaves
the head as a born muley. Of
course you want TO be careful to
rub every bit of the horn. Icover
about an inch in diameter with the
caustic, and / am careful to wrap
the stick of potash with paper to
protect my fingers, leaving bare
just enough to rub the horn with.
