varieties of wheat Exempt From scab.

The fungous disease popularity Known
as wheat scab" was very prevalent at
the Indiana station this season. This
disease attacks the wheat heads. AS a
result the head or some part of it turns
lighter in color, and the grains are
light, chaffy and worthless. Among Is
varieties of wheat growing at the sta
ton, Velvet Chaff, Early Ripe, Hybrid
Prolific, Harvest King, Improved Fultz
and Michigan Amber were practically
free from scab.

DIsHoRNINe CATTLE.

How the Operation Ia Successfully Per-
formed In Florida.
A correspondent Of The Country Gen.
tleman says that q herd Of Jerseys own
ed by J. @. Myers of Florida has been
successfully dishorned. Mr.. Myers uses
a small, fine tooth saw without ''set"
ana bull ring in the nose. Care must
be taken to cut off the crown or matrix
below the upper circle of hair, or else
the stump will grow out again, more or
less. There is no danger of decorating
the brain, as many suppose, as that is
some distance below the base of the
horns and separated from them by a
hollow space.
The stamp is covered over with tar
red cloth, which must be watched and
retarred or refastened every day if the
animal disturbs it. Mr.. Myers has dis
horned, for himself and others, nearly
100 cattle and has never had any trou-
BILE to speak of in healing up the stumps
except in two or three cases in which
the operation was performed in the
rainy season. He does not recommend it
for this season, but would not hesitate
to perform it any other time, even in
the hottest weather.
Contrary to the general opinion, he
favors postponing the operation until
the animal has reached the age of 2 or
3 years. If it is performed ON young
calf, it becomes "bunter, which, he
says, lis one Of the meanest animals in
herd" On the other hand, if it is al
lowed to become mature or nearly so it
learns to use and depend on its horns,
and then, when it loses them, its spirit
is Inundated, and it becomes one of the
most docile and submissive members of
the herd. For the above reason he OPP
poses the operation of preventing the
growth of the horns ON a very young
calf by application of caustic potash.

Horse Foods.

Cleanliness of the food, its character
ercise strong influence over the health
Of the horse, his powers of endurance
and general usefulness, and as rule q
serious lack of care or ignorance of the
requirements prevails to an inexcusable
extent among those who grow and pre-
pare the horse foods that are in general
use. More especially does this apply to
the condition of the hay that is every
year harvested and sold for the purpose.
Timothy is the standard rough or bulky
feed for the horse, the impression being
almost universal among horse owners
that this is the only kind of hay suita-
BILE or safe to give him. Numerous
trials and experiments, however, have
proved this idea to be only partly COR
rect, as clover hay cut before it has be-
come overripe, carefully cured and
saved, contains more nutrition, and bet
ter results follow its use for horses than
that of the best timothy obtainable. OF
course it must be understood that only
the very finest article of clover hay is
included in the comparison-in fact,
no other sort, for sanitary and econom-
ical reasons, ought to be fed to any
kind of stock. There is a loss and some-
times danger in feeding inferior, dusty,
moldy hay even to cows, and it is by
no means cheap and desirable feed,
and yet of all the difficult things to
find for sale ON the market first class
clover hay is the hardest. 1t has either
stood too long before it was cut, or
managed badly after, and is generally
woody and discolored, more or less
musty and full of dust. irritating to the
eyes, nostrils and throat Besides it is
highly indigestible, often causing con-
stipation, inflammation of the intestines
and sometimes diarrhea and abortion
in breeding animals.

Pa.turinx Sheep In Cornflelds.

A man who has tried it greatly favors
pasturing sheep in fields Of growing
corn, The time to start them in is after
the corn has been laid by and the ears
have begun to form. There are at that
time, as farmers know to their sorrow,
great stalks and patches Of cattail and
other weed pests that choke the grain
plants and make 1t uncomfortable to go
along the rows. These the sheep clean ont
better than q rake could do They devour
the weeds seeds and all. and grow fat ON
them. The time they are turned into the
cornfeld Is after pastures have become
. little dry and short, and the change
Is agreeable to them. They do not touch
the corn unless Il is short and stunted
and tha ears are in consequence near
enough 10 the ground fos them to reach.

of the day. His easy adaptability to all
chimes and conditions, his early matu-
rity and great feeding qualities and his
beauty of conformation make him in
vincible. Talk about Tamworths, razor
backs, ETC., being the hogs to suit the
market! If the market wants bacon hogs
and wants them bad enough to pay for
the change, we will furnish them quick
enough right from among the Poland
Chinas. Nor will they be thin enough
to split sunbeam nor wild enough to
enter the chase, and it is safe to say
they will not be "cat manned" nor
will they turn up their noses at the
change. By selection and proper feed
we can just SO quickly produce the
choicest bacon hog as the so called bacon
hog will lose those qualities on the food
of the present Poland Chinas This talk
of introducing a new breed to improve
the bacon qualities of the hogs i'll the
corn belt is all rot. The whole argu-
ment is founded ON false basis Its
supporters confuse the breed with the
feed and environments. They lose sight
Of the fact that the breed they so much
admire for his bacon has been fed bacon
producing food for many generations,
and were he imported into the corn belt
it would only be short time and a
corncrib cross or two when his bacon
identity would be lost and we would
only have his miserable outlines left as
sad reminder of our folly.
