Important to StOCkmen.

A correspondent writes to the Dan
vile Advocate as follows: zone of
cur neighbors, who has dehorned
over 1000 cattle and lost only three,
says the dehorning should be done
when the calves are ten days to two
weeks old, by clipping the hair from
around the horn close, then dampen
slig tly and burn with caustic pot.
ash. He has never known a single
case to fail, and five cents worth will
dehorn a dozen calves. If dehorning
is put off until the animal is one or
two years old, the cost will be from
one to three dollars per head, owing
to the condition of the stock, and it
sets them back in growth from one to
TWO monts, the shrinkage and cost

the year for dehorning aged cattle is
the last of October or first of Novem-

water the day of dehorning or be
allowed to run to hay or straw stacks
afterward."

AT 5 20 in low top buggy he started
for Campton ten miles distant. The
