SUCCESSFUL CALF RAISING.

A calf rearer who has lost only one
ont of ninety calves born alive IN hve
seasons, and that one an animal which
was born with an internal malady, may
be accepted as safe guide upon the
subject. With such credentials MIR. Law
renee, manager of the Newton Kigg
Farm for the county councils of Cum
berland and Westmorland, came Der
fore the Chamber of Agriculture OF
those counties a few days ago to de-
scribe his experience. In rearing calves
by hand losses are often numerous, but
Mr.. Lawrence showed how they could
be reduced to a minimum by proper
feeding, attention to. sanitary condi7
tions, and the timely administration OF
a little medicine, chiefly to cure white
scour" in its early stage.
When a calf is born it is Immediately
removed to a pen we'll Uttered with dry
straw. rubbed well with straw and COW
cred over with a little of the same ma
terial. In half an hour the calf is ted,
by means of the fingers, with about a
pint of its mothers first meal of the day.
During the first week the calf has no
thing but its mothers warm milk, get
ting a pint and half three times day
at first, and a quantity gradually in
creasing to two quarts at the end OF
week. On the third day the young ami
NAL is taught to drink without the
fingers. The food is the same, two
quarts three times a day through the
second week, while in the third week
half the milk is separated or SKINNED
half pint of linseed soup being added
to it, to take the place of the cream. In
the fourth week the only alteration is
the addition of a handful of sweet hay
twice day In the fifth week the diet
consists of two and half pints of warm
separated or skinned milk, with half a
pint of linseed soup mixed with each
quart, three times a day, and little
sweet hay night and morning.
This diet is continued to the end of
the eighth week. After this the linseed
soup is omitted, a handful of broken
linseed cake and small quantity of
pulped swedes being given after the
midday meal, or grass in summer instead
of swedes. From the beginning of the
twelfth week the midday meal is omit
ted. three-quarters of pound of linseed
cake and crushed oats together being
given at midday, with half gallon of
pulped swedes or some grass at noon,
while the separated milk and hay are
given in the morning and in the even
ing. If desirable, the milk may be dis
continued when the calf is five months
old, and other food increased accord
ingly, but it is better TO keep on with
the milk till the calf is nine months old
Linseed soup is prepared by putting
two pounds of linseed to soak in four
gallons OF water over night, boiling and
stirring it for half an hour next day,
and. five minutes before boiling is fin
ished, adding half a pound of -four pre-
viously beaten up with little water

DEMAND ON GEORGE COULD.
A Threat Which Means War Be
 tween Corporntions.

Philadelphia, Sept 23-rhe Enquirer to- morrow will say: "A J. Cassett, Presi- dent of, the Pennsylvania Railroad Com- pany, has demanded of George Gould the surrender of the Wabash Railroad 1ys- tenn. and the Wheeling and Lake Erie at a price which will net profit to the Goulds under threat of cutting off the whole of the Wester Union TeleEraph lines from the entire Pennsylvania Rail- road system, as well as from the Van- derbilt lines, which have agreed to the deal.
 This is threat that means . war greater than any that has ever taken place in this country. and is comparable South Pennsylvania In 1Ss6, which result ed in the abandonment of these lines ex- cept as built, which were swallowed up by the Vanderbilts and the Pennsyylva- nia.
 The penalty means that the Western Union will suffer the greatest blow Ia its history, and will lose many of its profit able lines. which will be turned over to it's great rival, the Postal Telegraph Company. This ultimatum means more than any other railway deal in the his- tory of this country. It is believed that the Goulds will accede to the demand, and that the Pennsylvania will not only add nearly 3,eeo concomltant miles to it's trackage, but will also get rid of . rival for the Carnegie steel business, which is resulting from contract made by Mir.
