Judgment in Cattle Feeding.

Cattle feeding and handling is a
large subject and only general prin-
ciples are to be laid down. No hard
and fast rules for feeding are now
known. and doubtless none ever will
be known, is the conclusion of the
Wisconsin and Connecticut experiment
stations, 1t is nevertheless true that
the man who exercises the largest
amount of good judgment, based upon
all the most advanced science can
bring him, and who tries to put into
practice the knowledge thus acquired,
will be much surer of success than one
who works blindly. There may be no
''best" breed, no "best" ration and no
"best" way of handling dairy stock.
but there are poor cows, uneconomical
rations and bad ways of handling and
the man who learns to avoid the bad
and choose the better is well ON the
road toward the best.

Charcoal for Corn-Fed Hogs.

A diet wholly OF corn is very hard
to digest. If food does not digest in
the stomach it must sour, for its tenn
perature is always at as degrees,
which is extreme heat for summers
day When souring of the stomach
occurs, it is remedied by feeding char
coal. This is not, however, a perma-
nent remedy. The charcoal is carbo-
naceous. and therefore the larger part
of it is like the corn. 1t is the potash
mixed with it that corrects the acidity.
But the better way is not to let the
stomach get sour. Feed even the fat
tening hogs some fine wheat, millings
with milk and few sliced beets daily.
This will keep their digestion good,
and when food digests it does not sour
IN the stomach.-Rural World.

for Himself and stan.
The soldiers felt the grip of hard
times tighten on them as the war went
on, and their lot seemed to be all the
more embittered by the coming of
Christmas, the day of family reunions
and grateful feasting Especially was
this the case in the army of northern
Virginia, for after the fall of 1868
nearly all of it's lines of communica-
tion southwark had been cut, and
Grants forces stood like wall of un-
breakable steel between itand it's main
sources of food supply. AS the war
neared its close, there was pallid Sc :
of soldiers in that renowned army.
Checks were pale with hunger that
had never blanched with fear in battle.
There was an awful break in the har-
mony of things with them in the win
ter of 1864, for never were the stomachs
of soldiers in more marked dispropor-
tion to the size of their rations On
Christmas day of that year it was a
half pound of tough beef and pint of
COW peas to each man. The peas were
quite digestible, if cooked for a week
or two, but when undone, and followed
by q drink of water, they would con-
vert the toughest soldier into "howl-
ing swell,' in a very painful sense of
term.
The fare of the officers was but lit

soldiers What it was, as to quantity

HOG CHOLERA REMEDY.
Oflcial Report on sho Treatment and Pro-
vention OF the Disease.

Oflcial Report on sho Treatment and Pro-
vention OF the Disease.
With estimated losses of between
100000 and $25,000,000 from hog
cholera and swine plague in the United
States, the discussion of the treatment
and means of prevention of these dis
eases in a bulletin issued by the agri-
cultural department is of great value
to the farmers of this country.
The bureau of animal industry has
been conducting an exhaustive inves-
tigation of this subject and finds that
the agents which destroy the germs of
one of these fatal diseases are also eff
fective in destruction of the germs OF
the other. Both are spread by infec-
tion and their course varies from one
day to three weeks. Both are caused
by bacteria The germs of hog chcl-
era, says the report, are very hardy
and vigorous, while those of the swine
plague are very delicate and easily de-
stroyed. The latter are found to be
present in practically all herds of
swine, but the former must be intro
duced from infected herds.
The most efficient virus remedy
tried by the governments agents is
the following: Wood, charcoal
sulphur, sodium sulphate and anti
mony sulphide, one pound each;
sodium chloride, sodium, bi-carbonate
and sodium hyposulphite, two pounds
each. These are to be completely
pulverized and mixed, and a daily
dose of large tablespoonful for
each 200 pounds weight of hogs
given. The medicine may be used
also as a preventative of these dis
eases. 1t should be put in the feed of
the whole herd. To insure successful
treatment the animals should be kept
in dry and comfortable quarters away
from drafts of air. Five or six
months should be allowed to elapse
after an outbreak before new hogs
are purchased or any of the old herd
sold.
The report recommends rigid
quarantining of newly-bought hogs
and the prevention of their joining
those already on the farm for at least
six weeks During the warm months
of the year the swine should have
plenty of young grass or clover
crushed or rolled wheat should be fed
to the growing animals.

In the silence that followed q voice
called out: 81 am one who hopes that
the abolitionists won't win."

his pocket, waved it in the air and
shouted: "Comc and get it, conc and
get 1t; send him along, send E.u
along;" and the man, reluctant enough
now. was pushed and dragged to the

A Convenient Thing for Farmers wher.
Sheep Are Kept.
The usual method of feeding sheep
has a number of disadvantages When
fed from the floor adjacent to their
pen, the lambs are quite sure to be
found walking all over the hay and
grain, and making themselves gem
orally at home in the uttermost parts
of the barn. The sheep, moreover,
wear off the wool from their necks and
disfgure themselves when feeding
through openings in The side of their
pen. Where the fodder is thrown down
from the floor above the pen an ar
rangement such as is shown in the
illustration may be found serviceable.
1t is a hanging rack with slass all
around it, and made narrow at the bot
tom, SO that the flock can reach even

Cottolene ms n Trademark.

An important and interesting trademark
suit, which has been before the courts for
some time, has recently reached decision
in the United States Circuit Court for the
Southern District of New York. The suit
was for an injunction against the infringe
ment of complainant's (The N. X. Fairbank
Company, Chicago) trademark Cottolene"
by the use of the word "Cottoleo." The
validity of Cottolene as a trademark was
made permanent by an injunction, the case
being summarized by the court as follows:
SIT seems to be the law that when manu-
facturers have educated the public to ask
for certain article by its trademark name,
they have acquired the right to insist that
products manufactured by others shall not
be given to the public under that name. It
is just that it should be so for the benefit
derived from such name can only be OBJ
tanned by faithful service in furnishing
articles of recognized value. Moreover, If
the trademark name might be adopted by
others, inferior articles might then be pro-
duced and sold under it; and thereby the
value to manufacturers of the reputation OF
the name used by them as trademark
would be destroyed"
