His Career ON the Bench.

During that term of more than a
third of Il century he was concerned III
some of the most important cases ever
passed upon by the supreme court.
Among the prominent decisions was
the famous test oath case, III which ho
gave the casting vote, and wrote tho
opinion of the court annulling the
validity of "ironclad' oath. His dis.
senting opinions in the confiscation
cases. the legal tender eases and in the
New Orleans slaughter house case at.
tracted the widest attention.
During this long service on the
bench he was also before the public
eye i'll other ways than as n Judge OF,
the United States supreme court. He
was a member of the Hayes-Tilden
electoral commission in 1877, and voted
with the democratic minority. In 1880
he received sixty-five votes for the
presidential nomination at the Cincin-
natl democratic convention on the first
ballot. In 1879 he was appointed by
the governor of the state of California
one of the commission to examine the
code of laws of that state. In 1866
Williams college conferred upon him
the degree of LII. D., and in 1869 the
regents of the University of California
made him n professor of law in that in
stitution.
In 1880 one of the most sensational
events of n remarkably active and vig-
orous career. largely passed in a new
country in process of development
from a pioneer state to n highly civil
lied community, brought his person
ality wildly before the public. Saral,
Altlea Hill Terry had brought a
famous sui against ex-senator
Sharon, u California multimillionaire.
Justice Field was on the bench. The
outcome of the case was u%nfavorable
to the plaintiff, and engendered in her
feelings of hatred of the jurist. This
eliminated i'll her attempt to chnstise
the aged justice in the dining hall of a
depot eating house at Tatllrop, CAL,
railway station. Judge Terry. who had
been her attorney in the suit against
Sharon, and who afterwards married
her, interfered and it seemed that he
was trying to do violence to Justice
Fields person. David Nagle, a United
States deputy marshal, drew n revolver
and shot and killed Judge Terry. Ma
gle was acquitted. There was, how
ever, for many years intense bitter
ness between the friends of the two
factions, and for this reason Justice
Fields family discouraged his discus
sion OF California topics or the perusal
&Sut California newspapers.

Hay From Lodged Clover.

On very rich land clover often grows
so large that its own weight brings it
to the ground, and if this breaking
down occurs while the air is still, the
clover is usually twisted so badly that
except with a mower and on smooth
surface it is almost impossible to cut
it. A good deal depends on the way
the clover is cut, not merely for the
present hay crop, but for the after
growth. If cut close to the ground
there will be a large amount of coarse
stalks that are difficult to cure, though
they may be when cured as sweet and
nutritious as any Of the hay. If not
cut close, as must be the case when
the mower runs the way that most of
the clover leans, a long, coarse stub
BILE is left from which the clover
growth is very small, much as it
would be if mass of young buds were
left to grow on newly transplanted
tree, instead of reducing the top to
merely one bud, and allowing that to
make all the growth it will.
Most farmers, for the good of the
clover, try to cut as low as possible
the mower had left long stubble, fol-
low it with a scythe and cut down
what the mower knives passed over.
Where the clover has been beaten
down by rains most of it will fall one
way. 1t is then possible by what is
called carrying the swath" to cut the
whole against the fallen clover, and
by letting the knives down close to
the ground get the whole and make
closer cut than could be done by the
most skilful mower with the scythe
In cutting clover no sod is left. The
clover plants do not send out many
small leaves at the base of their stems
as all the grasses do. Consequently
a clover stubble is harsh to bare feet,
and as it exudes gum it makes the
shoes slippery in walking over it in
them, as this gum quickly dries when
it is exposed to the air, and it makes
a smooth coating over the leather.
1t is the gum which the thick clover
stalks contain that makes clover hay
ferment so quickly when piled in
masses. Yet so long as it is not di-
luted with rains or dews this heating
will usually dry out the clover with
out injury, so that it can be put in the
barn without fear that it will there
rot down into manure. After one
heating in a small heap this clover has
its moisture drawn out of it, and is
really much less likely to heat iniuri-
ously than it was before. American

A Ferociou. Sc. Creature.

"What are the most ferocious, tiger.
like creatures that swim the sea? The

who is connected with the Smithso nian
Institution. ''Some people know

the ork or the orc. The orca family
are cetaceans and prey on whales.
wonder that they are 80 little known,
such wonderful creatures are they.
Orcas are found in all seas, but are
most numerous in the South Seas.
The natives of the Marquesa Islands
have some horrible sanguniary legends
about the things that orcas do, just as
the legends of India and Java deal
with the horrors of crocodiles. The
orcas are about twenty feet long in
the Antarctic seas and are seldom
over twelve feet long in the North
Pacific and Atlantic. They have a
terrible arm ament of sharp teeth.
It is interesting to compare them with
animals of similar character. There
are eight species of orca the world
over, and each species has areputation
for ferocity. The best known are the
gladiator orca-orca gladiator of the
Atlantic-and orca rectipenna and
crca ater of the Pacific. Orca recti-
penna is remarkable animal, readily
recognized by it's dorsal fin, that is
often as tall as the tallest man, slender
and bending over at the tip gracefully.
When swimming below the surface
six feet of this fin is seen gliding
along, often resembling a shark on
the surface. New York Sun,

Tarring the Sleeps Noses.

After the sheep are sLorn, their
noses should be rubbed with some
tar, to repel the fly which lays the
egg that matches into grub and en-
ters the head. 1t is very little trouble
to tar all the sleeps noses in flock
if you only know how. Put little
salt over the tar, and in their anxiety
to get at the salt the sheep will tar
their own noses effectually, and will
very likely rub their tarred noses on
the sides and shoulders of other sheep.
This is why it is best to shear the
sheep before tarring them. Speaking
about tarring sheep reminds us of the
English farmer who rode out to his
farm one summer day with bowl of
tar and some salt. and taking his little
boy with him for pleasant ride. The
old farmer thought it good occasion
to impress some wholesome advice on
the juvenile mind. So he began in
the stereotyped way to declaim against
the danger from keeping bad COM
pany, and at every sentence would
add the injunction, "Mark me, my
lad," sometimes varied with "Mark
me well.'' This continued until the
boy astonished the farmer with the
protest. eff mark you much more,
there'll be no tar for the sheep"
Every time he had been told to ''mark
me-" he had obeyed literally by put
ting some of the tar on the back of
the farmers coat.

Fnttening Cattle,

Well bred cattle will pay for feeding
to a finish, but it is better to turn off
common cattle just as soon as they are
in a passable condition for the mar
ket. AS the fattening process ad
vances cattle will usually eat less
ravenously, unless they have change
of feed. If fed on ear corn they will
tire of it, but if it is shclled their de-
clining appetite will return; and it
will be found that if an occasional
change is made from ear corn to
shelled corn, then to oats, from corn
fodder to clover hay, and so on back
and forth, the cattle will do better
and the beef will be made at less cost.
Corn meal can be very proftably used
to make one of these changes, es-
pecially if mixed with bran, provided
it is mixed with something like cut
clover or other roughage. 1t is waste
full to feed corr meal by itself.
There are number of things that
might be fed to break the monotony
of steady corn diet. Roots of all
kinds could be thus utilized. We have
sometimes fed good straw in place of
hay just for a change, and the cattle
liked it and were improved by it.
Either man or beast will tire of eating
one thing all the time, and firing
means loss of appetite and lesser
consumption. Much has been written
about warming water for cows, but
upon the temperature of water for fat
tening cattle. ice water never should
60 into any system, the prevalent
American habit of drinking copious
draughts of ice water to the contrary,
Notwithstanding. The steer will not
drink it unless driven to it by excess
sive thirst, and when he does it is ex-
pensive for the feeder. 1t reduces the
temperature, which must be raised
again by feed. Besides it interferes
with digestion, and all the time
that tho system and digestion are
getting into normal condition again,
time is being wasted. The fattening
steer ought never to be compelled to
drink water at a lower temperature
than it comes out cf the we'll. Plenty
of water should be provided. 1t is
best, when possible, and the weather
is not too cold, to let the herd have
free access to water. If that is not
practical, water twice day. The
system requires abundance of water.
Provide good shelter at all seasons,
warm shelter in winter, and shelter
from storms in warmer weather.
Rock salt should always be accessible.
Feed regularly. Keep watch of every
animal, that you may know its con-
dition, whether or not it is eating as
it should, whether or not it is scour-
ing, whether or not, in word, it is
getting along as it should. Securing
should be checked at once, and in
order to do that the cause must be
removed. Among the causes are too
much salt-whsn loose salt is fed
not enough coarse feed, unsound grain
and loudly hay or fodder. Remove
the CAUSE, and substitute oats for
corn aud timothy for clover for day
or two.-The Epitomist.

THE ISLE OF SLEEP.

In the tropically languorous ses OF sleep
There stretches coral strand,
Where the moonlight plays mid the leafy

That grow in the dream-world land.
Aud here 1t Is that fond dreams meet
And dance on the sands OF gold:
While the misty shapes we chase in sleep
Within our arms we hold.

Sways gently in the night,
And with its opium-laden breath
Lulls us to realms of light.

No sorrows or vain regret;
'Tis silent kingdom Of happiness
Where we wonder and-forget.

Autumn Management of Bees.


Successful wintering of bees largely
depends on autumn management. If
bees received the attention they should
have during the autumn months, win
tering would be almost an absolute
certainty, but from the fact that they
do not, and are neglected, heavy losses
result. 1t may be said that it matters
not as to the condition in which bees
go into winter quarters, very severe
winter will go hard with them, but my
experience is, if bees are in proper
shape in late autumn, but small per
cent. of loss will occur in winter.
No one can expect to winter old
bees successfully, and in great many
instances, it might be said, iu most
cases, old bees are the cause of the
worst trouble. If bees do not have a
late flow of honey during the autumn
months, say September and October,
they Invariably go into the winter
with a large majority of old bees.
When bees have good flow of honey
at this period, or enough to keep them
breeding we'll, they will raise supply
of young bees that will withstand the
winter and also early spring. This
condition of things can be brought
about by feeding during this period,
and in every case of the lack OF full
flow of honey, feeding is the proper
course to pursue. It would seem chat
if COLONY of bees had enough stores
to carry them through the winter,
that feeding would be foolish, but
that is the only method by which we
can insure brood rearing and young
bees to go through as they should.
The proper time to begin feeding is
early in autumn in localities where
winter begins as early as the first of
November, say from the first to the
middle of September. But in most
localities in this country, October
feeding will bring the desired result.
Feeding for brood rearing only re-
quires small amount of feed COM

The Chicken Mite.

This exceedingly troublesome and
often fatal pest is the cause of many
complaints from those raising chick
ems. The attacks of the pest are not
confined to poultry, as it is often
found in pigeon houses and in the
nests of other birds about farm build
ings. Where they are numerous,
they often find their way to animals
confined in the infested buildings.
The mites are nocturnal in their habits.
During the day time, they are gen.
orally in hiding about the building,
but at night they abandon their hid
ing places and seek for food. Chickens
are often prevented from sleeping
at night, and not rarely forced to
abandon their eggs when setting. In
stances have been recorded where
birds have been killed by this mite.
There is no way to receive perman-
ent relief from the pest. The reme-
dies must be applied often and thor
oughly, since the insect is able to live
a long time without eating. Cleauli-
ness must be observed. The hen
manure should be frequently removed
as it often swarms with the pest. If
the hen house is tight, fumigation by
sulphur is very effective. To prevent
any accident by fire, float the metal
vessel containing the burning sulphur
in tub of water. After several
hours of fumigation, air the building
we'll before occupancy. Pure kero-
sene is also to be recommended. The
interior OF the building, including
perches, should be well sprayed with
it. After using kerosene, remember
to air the building before introducing
q light. j. Parrott of the Kansas
