DEHORNING CATTLE.

The thought of saying something upon this subject was suggested to the writer by seeing a promising young bull suffering the loss of his horns by what seemed to be most barbarous method. The poor brute had been thrown and was laying with three feet tied together, his head fastened to one post and one hind foot drawn back by pulley and tackle to another. Three men al d 6 boy were working about his head helping to saw off the horns. The dry powdery manure of the corral was used to stop the flow of blood. The operation of dehorning must cause some pain but it need not be accompanied by such rough handling as to endanger the future usefulness of the animal dehorned.
 There are few men, If any, who have handled hornless cattle that do not appreciate the advantages of dehorning and who do not strong ly advocate it's practice. Not only is danger of injury from hooking avoided but the animals are more quite and peaceable, giving better results Tn the milking corral and the feed lot. With the loss of their horns they seem to lose the desire to fight. It is no longer a question as to whether cattle shall be de- horned or not but question of when and how to do it.
 The old original method of de morning was by nse of the saw. It is still advocated by some and has the advantage of taking off the horn where other means sometimes faIl. Clippers designed for the purpose are more convenient and as rule more efficient. In the case of old an1mals not only do the horns ! themselves become very hard but the so-called pith assumes a bony character such that It is sometimes impossible to cut them with clip pers. In such cases the use of the saw must be resorted to. The mis take of saving off the horns some distance from the head is sometimes made, the idea being that it IS less painful to the animal than taking them off close. Not only is the operation no less painful but the remaining hubs detract from the appearance of the animal and some times grow, thus defeating the ob- feet of dehorning Whether the saw or. clippers are used the horns should come off close to the skull, always below the line where the skin grows about the base of the horn. There is sometimes con- siderable loss of blood which may be lessened CT entirely stopped by a simple method of "tying the art cries" These arteries lie mostly on the side of the horn toward the ear so that by drawing a string tightly around both horns and tying, pressure is brought to bear on the blood vessels and the flow of blood is stopped After the string has been tied the pressure may be increased by bringing the front and back strands together over the top of the head and fastening them. In such cases it is well to put little medicated cotton over the opening to keep out flies and dirt. Should the animal Tn day or two give

Detroit Truck Drivers Strike.

The trouble between the truck driv-
ers and the Detroit Carriage association,
comprising all the carriage companies
in Detroit, was brought TO a head on
the sth, when the 80 transfers en-
ployed by the Ferguson company quit
work. AS soon as this was made known
to the other companies their men were
ordered TO take out trucks to assist the
Ferguson people in delivering freight
The men refused to obey and all the
companies ordered the trucks back to
the barns, locked the barns and the
men were temporarily out of job.
This was in accordance with the asso-
cations program, of which the en-
ployes had received due notice. The
strikers Immediately notified the mer-
chants that they would move every
thing from the freight house with
their own teams. The carriage COM
panies say that it will be impossible
for the strikers to handle freight OF
any bulk, whatever, as the trucks they
have are mostly single and light ones.
All other goods will be obliged to re-
main in the depot, and according to an
agreement signed by all the railroad
companies last January after "a hours
storage rates will be charged.

Chicago Robbed of 100000.

A scheme by which the city of Chi
cago has been defrauded out of sums
aggregating 5000, 600, according to
Chief of Detectives Colleran, has been
unearthed by detectives and two men
are now in Jail charged with conspir-
acy, while seven others are under sur
vigilance. Clarence NJ. Wolfe and Geo.
W. Piggott, employees in the water of
flee, are under arrest charged with par
ticipating in the conspiracy which it is
said has been going on for over five
years. 1t is alleged that Wolfe and
Piggott were caught in the act of
changing the dial of a water meter in
the Rainier hotel The detectives say
the alteration was part of the scheme
by which the fraud was operated. Dur
ing the past two months two city de-
tectives have stood in room seven
feet square in the basement of the Ra-
nier hotel, looking through narrow
peep holes in 14-inch brick wall and
watching for evidence. So conclusive
is the showing against the men ar
rested that they have confessed their
guilt.

Col. smiths story Attacked.

The prosecution furnished several
surprises in the Sutton trial on the 9th
Col. Smith testifying to some impor-
tant conversations with Col. sutton
and the latter's attorney, Elliott G..
Stevenson, no mention of which was
made in the Marsh trial, because of
desire to keep them in the background
for this trial, or because they would
not have been admissible as against
Marsh. The conversation with Sutton
related in part to an effort to get
Smith to leave the city so as to escape
the grand jury, and in part to the al
legged plan of calling a special session
of the legislature for the purpose of
impeaching Judge Person and Prosecu-
tor futile and thereby putting an end
to the grand jury. Col. Smith started
in with continuation of his story as
to the sale of the military stores on
hand and the purchase of others. The
defense early objected to his telling of
conversations with White in the alb
sence of Sutton, and Judge West stated
to the jury that this evidence was adj
mitted on the understanding that the
prosecutor was to show conspiracy
with which Sutton was connected be-
fore completing the case; otherwise all
this testimony was to be excluded and
not considered by the jury. 1t was in
August that White told Smith that
Sutton and Marsh were connected with
him in the military deal, and the wit
ness told of his visit to Whites office
on Sept. ~, a couple of hours before he
was married, and how White called
him back as he was leaving the office
and handed him check for 5000. say

Weekly Crnp Renort.

The weekly crop bulletin of the
Michigan weather service says that
generally the week has been frosty and
dry. Very light showers have occurred
in scattered localities and wet snow
in some Others. Cold drying winds
prevailed during most days and heavy
frosts on the last three nights of the
week. Fortunately vegetation was not
far enough advanced so that much
damage would result. In few cases
damage to straw berries is reported, but
so far as known at present no damage
was done to fruit. 1t has been too dry
for rye and clover to make much pro-
gress, although some improvement is
noticeable. Wheat continues in very
poor condition and many farmers are
blowing it up. The dry weather has
been favorable to the spread of forest
fires, which have prevailed extensively
and done considerable damage during
the past 10 days. Field work has pro-
crossed steadily. Dat seeding is near
ing completion in most counties of the
lower peninsula and is quite generally
begun in the upper peninsula. In the
extreme southern counties oats have
terminated nicely, but generally the
weather is too cold for much growth.
Pastures have improved so that con-
siderable stock has been turned out

The boy hung by his hands directly
