LIVE STOCK AND DAIRY.

We never could enjoy our rest be-
tween a pair of good blankets with our
horses and cows resting" co on bare
plank or cement.
The pigs will, if given the opportu-
nifty, do much cleaning where threshing
was done out doors; so will the chick
ems, and without tearing the ground
up so much.
Let those who are building up their
focks and herds not neglect to head
them with the best animals obtaina-
BILE. These can be bought right, while
scrubs are dear at any price.
When it comes to quality, there is far
less difference in the best butter made
by deep and shallow setting and by CEN
trifugal separating than dairymen
were formerly led to suppose.
A ton of butter taken from the farm
removes scarcely any fertility, while a
ton of wheat removes about $3.50 worth
and a ton of corn about five dollars
worth. Surely, the dairy farm should
improve.
It would be good thing for the coun-
try, both from a financial and a hui
manitarian standpoint, if there were
more veterinary surgeons and fewer
''hoss 'doctors." There really is no more
noble profession than that of the
skilled "vet." -Agricultural Epitomist

THE HOsTETTER co. WINS ANOTHER
CASE.

Infringement on Their Bitters Not
Tolerated by United States Court.
The United States Circuit Court for the
Southern District of New York, Judge
Townsend presiding, handed down an opin-
ion December 23d, 1897, granting injunction
and accounting, in the suit of The Hostetter
Company against Isaac Sommers and Louis
Joseph, for infringement of it's Trade Mark.
The jurist states, in bold and clear language,
the rights accruing to the Hostetter. Com
would rob them, by fraud or misrepresenta-
profits of business built up by the efforts
of half century. The Judge says, in part:
''The complainant is entitled to protec-
ton against the appropriation of its trade
mark, by any and all unfair and dishonor-
able meanss and court of equity has pow
er to grant such protection whenever it is
satisfied that an attempt has been made by
ingenious subterfuges, to invade the rights
of an owner of trade mark. In
the sharp contest between the individual
manufacturer, who strives to acquire and
retain the fruits of industry and hon.
esty, and the field of keen rivals, seeking
to wrest from him the prize of the public
goodwill, the inventive ingenuity Of the
infringer has conceived great variety of
devices for evading the established rules of
fair dealing. y Courts Of equity find,
were to enable and induce the retail seller of
fraudulent imitation to palm it off on an
unsuspecting public for the genuine article,
and thus to contribute to the infringement
upon the rights of the original owner; have
not hesitated to apply the remedy"

BEEF.CATTLE POINTS.
The General Form Should BE Low
DrOad and DeeD

The General Form Should Be Low,
Broad and Deep.
Mr.. C. F. Curtiss, of the Iowa expert
ment station, writes on the points OF
beef cattle to be taken into considera-
ton and says: "There is well-de-
fined beef type that admits of less flex-
Utility than is generally regarded. The
first thing that should be looked to is
the general beef form - low, broad,
deep, smooth and even, with parallel
lines. No wedge-shape is wanted for
the block. Next in Importance is a
thick, even covering of the right kind
of meat in the parts that give the high
priced cuts. This is very important
factor in beef cattle that is often over
looked. About % per cent. of a good
carcass of beef sells for nearly ca per
cent. of the total value. The highest
priced cuts are ribs and loins. These
parts on an average sell for about three
times as much per pound as the others.
Good, broad, well-covered backs and
ribs are absolutely necessary to good
carcass, of beef, and no other excellen-
cies, however great, will compensate for
the lack of this essential It is neces-
sary to both breed and feed for thick
ness in these parts. And mere thickness
and substance here is not all. Animals
that are soft and patchy or hard and
rolled on the back are sure to give de-
fective and Objectionable carcasses,
even though they are thick; and they
also cut up with correspondingly great
err waste. The men who buy our cattle
and fix their market value are shrewd
enough to know almost at glance how
much and just what kind of meat a
steer or car load of steers will cut out:
and if the producer overlooks any of the
essential points he is compelled to bear
the loss.

The Quest of Happiness,

The doubt has often been expressed
whether it is of any use to concern
ourselves about happiness at all. The
less we think about it, the less we con-
scientiously aim at it, the more prob
able it is, according to this view, that
we shall attain enough of it for our
needs. If this is really the case, hap
piness must be strangely different from
all other objects of human desire. Sup
pose that the object in view is wealth
or learning or reputation-does it seem
probable, in the nature of things, that
fortune will be made the most surely
by the man who never calculates, that
scholarship will be attained by an idler
who never reads, or that fame will be
the reward of the infertile and unpro-
ductive intellect? The truth is that
those who affirm the uselessness of the
pursuit of happiness are generally en-
gagged in following It themselves, but
Indirectly, and may be permitted to
observe that the dircctness or Indirect
ness of the road thstis taken does not
alter the nature Of the end.-Hamer-

APPEARANCES COUNT.
Why 1t Pays Always to ''Put the Be
Foot FOrward.'

Why 1t Pays Always to ''Put the Best
Foot Forward"
Appearances are sometimes deceitful,
but they are not altogether untrust-
worthy. We are all compelled to de-
pend upon them very largely in form
ing our estimation of things and per-
sons around us. We judge of grow
ing crop or an animal by appearances;
we are influenced in our opinion of the
farm hand who applies to US for work
b; his appearances; we like or do not
like "his looks" But as class farmers
have been so intent upon the real thing
that we have often overlooked the i'm
portarce of appearances. We often for
get that others judge US and our work
solely by the appearance we make, and
we do not give enough attention to mere
appearances. 1t is mistake. Many a
good product of the farm brings much
lower price than it deserves simply be-
cause its appearance has not been made
the best possible. Many farm is sold
greatly under it's real value because tho
owner has not taken the care to give it
neat and attractive appearance, and
many worthy farmer with the soul of
true man, brave and noble and wise,
has passed for boor because he has
neglected his personal appearance.
Farm products are not knicknacks; the
farm is not a pleasure park; the farmer
is not dude, but they are all worthy
careful consideration, and the farm, the
farmer and the farm products, if they
are to create the best impression upon
the world, must each put his best foot
forward" Look after the appearances.

GOOD WINTER. RATION.

Green Cut bone IL . Coed Substitute

Now that the supply Of bugs in the
fields is inaccessible, fowls must be pro-
vided with substitute which will form
meat ration. That meat of some sort
il necessary for both old and young
stock is generally-accepted fact.
There is nothing in our opinion which
20 thoroughly fills this want as green
cut bone. With the invention of the
modern green bone cutters the problem
of feeding this most excellent meat ra-
ton is easily solved. Different breeders
have different ideas as to the manner
of feeding. We advise three times a
week, and little at first until the hens
become used to it. Fed as separate ra-
ton it gives better results than if mixed
with other foods. In this way we can
easily control its consumption, and it
answers the purpose of meat ration
more thoroughly. It is good for both
old andsyoung:stock, and especially VAL
liable for growing cockerels. As com
pared with other food. we consider it
very cheap. Thes material, the green

upon the number of hens to be fed. The
best bones to buy and which cut the
best are ribs. These, if chopped into
small pieces an inch or two long, will
fit the machine and are easily cut up the
required size.
There is nothing in modern poultry
culture that has gained so firm hold
among the fanciers and breeders as
green cut bone. That it is not used as
much as it should be we are convinced
A few hesitate to use it because of the
cost of the machine, but if one stops to
consider that this expense can easily be
made in the increased egg yield we
think this objection will be overruled

A CASE OF HEART FA1L1JRE

She was much frightened but noticed that
in intervals in which her stomach did not
annoy her, her hearts action became normal.
Reasoning correctly that her digestion was
alone at fault she procured the proper med

finally ceased. Her weight, which had been
greatly reduced was restored and she now
weighs more than for years. Her blood soon
became pure and her cheeks rosy.
The case is of general interest because the
disease is a very common one. That others
may know the means of cure we give the

Selection of Young sows.

In selecting young sows to be used
as breeders, care should be taken to Sc
cure those that are well developed and
give promise of making good feeders.
They should be we'll fed, and made to
develop as rapidly as good health will
permit, for the feeding habit and con-
stitution of the mother is supposed es-
pecially to impart to the young her own
digestive system, and it is natural, there
fore, to conclude that the thrifty, rap
idly7growing young sow will impart
those characteristics to her offspring.
Early maturity. together with Wig
orous constitution, is now the desired
end sought by all swine breeders and
feeders.-Prairie Farmer.
