GRASS GROWS IN RIVER BED.
kansas stiH Hot and Crop Con-
ditiODs Very bad.

Kansas City, July 19.-This has been
an exceedingly hot day in Kansas.
The mercury has ranged from 1O6 TO
l09. While the feeling of utter help
lessness attendant upon the drought
has passed, the people of the state do
not attempt to deny that the fall crops
are in a desperate condition.
Farmers are beginning to plow the
early ruined corn fields and SOW them
in wheat and alfalfa to make pasture
fields for the stock in the fall and
winter, but the Kansas river running
through Topeka, is so dry that green
grass is growing in the center of the
river bed. Most of the streams of the
state, except the larger ones, have gone
dry. and there is a poor prospect for
stock water.

Calvin for Commissioned.

Newman Herald and Advertiser.
An interesting bit of political gossip is
the rumor. that Hon. Martin V. Calvin
will be in the race for state school COM
missioner. The rumor has not been con-
hrmed; but, in view of the opportunities
that have been made to Mr.. Calvin to al
low the use of his name, we shall not be
surprised If he yields to the persuasion of
his friends and allows them to bring him
out. Mr.. Calvin has probably attended
more sessions of the general assembly
than any man in Georgia, and has never
allowed an opportunity to pass when he
could advance the cause of public schools.
He was for six years chairman of the
house committee ON education, and his
intelligent discussion from time to time of
the needs of the common schools of the
state gave him such prominence as the
champion Of popular education that he
has been favorably mentioned many times
as a suitable person to fill the important
Office of state school commissioner.
whether he consents to go into this con-
test or not, it will be difficult to convince
his numerous friends and admirers
throughout the state that he is not We'll
qualified for the position.

The distance between the hair and the

Answer: Yes, I am glad OF the oppor-
tunity of publishing the fact that GeorBia
possesses such COWS as Julia Of Coving-
ton I also like her moderate test whicn
is reasonable and to be expected OF suen
a COW. In my Judgment the big tests re-
ported have been positive damage 70 the
breed OF dairy cattle credited with them.
I have been more or less associated with
cows of several breeds, and have known
many good COWS, but never has one OF
these awe-inspiring tests come under my
personal observation.
The sire Of Julia Of Covington Is truly
a great bull, and a credit to his breeders,
Messrs. Aver and Mckinney, OF New York,
the sire Of the dam of Julia was that bun
Foot Fall of Pamela, bred by the late
Frederick Bronson, Of Connecticut. This
latter bull was an inbred Signal, the form
er a pure st. Lambert, closely inbred to
Stake Pagis.
Upon this foundation was built the fam
fly of Jerseys that became well known a.
Pamela herd. The mother and grandmoth-
or of Julia were feeble calves and were
nursed at my farm. When dangerously III
they were carried to the lawn OF the
dwelling house, where the ladies' OF the
home could observe them. I often doubt
ed the economy Of the altruisuc spirit OF
the ladies. who saved the life of many

Georgia is enriched by the possession or
this blood.

ership OF people ignorant Of their prizes.

Answer: I think our correspondent has
a case of bone excrescence. When the
bones enlarge around the ankle, just at
top of the hoof, the disease is called ring
bone.
The case here described would be called
"side bones" 1. e. ossifed cartilage at
tached to the sides OF the hoof shaped
homes This bone of the foot is called by
veterinary surgeons los pedis," which
means pedestal or foot bone. It forms
the base upon which the structure is built
When we come to treatment 1 shall
emphasize the necessity Of leveling the
foot, by blacksmith's knife, which all
the writer's on this subject in England
and America neglect.
1 consider leveling more important than
blisters or medicine, more beneficial than
all other treatments added together.
I do not ask the correspondent to be-
lieve in my view, indeed I mention my
diverging estimate Of treatment from that
of the books so he can, like Artemus
Mardes audience. take his choice.
What mean by leveling horses foot
is to so cut the horn that when an ami
NAL stands on level plank floor, that
the front leg will be plumb from any
point OF view. OF course nature has put
the spring of the ankle Of the horse tre-
BILE to relieve the conclusion. Elephants
have a cushion in the foot for this effect.
Most careless blacksmiths allow one
side Of hoses foot to wear down lower
and shorter than the other side. This
with an animal weighing 1000 pounds all
of which weight is often put upon leg
not as large as a mans leg, which latter
supports $50 pounds.
The wonder is that there are as few
lame horses in servitude.

ignores the fact that there are any laws on
