TRANSFORMATIONS OF CATTLE.

The problem of the proper Transporter
tion of cattle is, like many other Ques-
tons connected with the treatment of
dumb animals, essentially Il modern queS-
ton. In times when each country must
feed its own, and the only way of get
ting cattle or sheep or horses from one
place to another was to drive them III
herds. under the care of II drover, the
problem was in one way simple. The
animals could not travel more than GER
tain distance each day without definite
injury. which would probably be visible
to the prospective purchaser when they
arrived at their destination. 1t was to
the interests of the drovcr. therefore, to
be very careful.
With the advent of cattl" trains. how
ever. it became possible to transport all
sorts Of live stock round the world, if
necessary. in less time than it used to
take 10 cross Il state. The railway takes
thc Texas steer and lands him in Chicago
in space of time which must seem to
his hCwildcrcl brain an eternity. but is
really but Il few days. His treatment On
route cannot we'll be 50 cruel rs to dcprc-
ciatc his ultimate value i'll any way
which the purchaser can soc: moreover.
in such cases the purchaser often buys
on faith, and pays without seeing. So
long aS most of the cattle get through all
right, if Il few die o. neglect. or lack of
water. or some other cause. tn" seller ;
reputation is good. The property inter
est cannot be relied upon in this matter
of proper treatment of dependents 1t
was estimated in the old days of slave
trading that if half the cargo got through
Ill,
was Il profit. The property interest was
no Safeguard there. 1t never protected
any creature which could hc ill-trcatcd
by Il thou@htlcsS or cruel person with no
immediate punishment. 1t is one of tn"
characteristics of the callouS and cruel
man .as a rule to be Short-Si=htcd He
seldom secs that in the long run, humane
treatment is profitable"
H. this case the trader and the railway
man 10 not suffer much even whom their
treatment of cattle is absolutely cruel.
1t is the public which suffers, and it is
the public which will therefore have To
take the matter in hand. There IL
great difference in the systems of var
ious railroads and dealers in their treat
mcnt of cattle and sheep. ANA som" are
much more humane than others. But it
is not so very long since sheep were pack

Farm Notes.

take made by many farmers is that they
succeed admirably in saving the potash
and phosphoric acid, but permit loss of
the valuable nitrogen because they fail
to realize how rapidly the nitrogen Tin
the form of ammonia) escapes from the
heap. and frequently when the farmer
opens his heap he finds the manure has
become ''tirc-fangcd,' or ovcrhcatcd, to
such an extent as to render tho manure
almost worthless. so far as the nitrogen
il contained is concerned.
