Stock Raising Too Easy.

A wsitea for one of the south
ern papers, who has told an inter-
esting story Of the cattle business
in Cuba of long ago, when great
herds of wild cattle roamed the
woods and plains in 1.-THE land of
sunshine and flowers" closes his
story by good advice to the farm
ers and stockmen of the south re-
garding the improvement of pas
lures and the blood of their cat
tie. He recommends that the
blood of the Hereford and Angus
for beef, the Shorthorn and Dew
on for both beef and milk, and
the Jersey for butter, be liberal
ly crossed upon the natives of
the southern Pastures. The
narrowing of the pastures of the
south, as we'll as the west, is
much in evidence already. Mil
lions of acres of land that were
recently open pastures have been
sold in small tracts and are being
put under fence. With this will
come the necessity of improving
the pastures by thickening the
grasses with proper seeding and
fertilization. One of our own
local stockmen who recently re-
turned from tour in the south
eastern country, said some west
ern farmers who had migrated
to that section a few years ago
are raising cattle so easily and
cheaply that they say that is the
real danger of the country. So
little effort is required to pro-
duce results in the southeast,
that it is difficult to maintain the
enterprise and energy among
the farmers and stockmen that

Ashes and Charcoal.

A subscriber from Texas, who
has had trouble in the past year
with soft or deficient bone in pigs
that were narrowed, asks flashes
and charcoal fed to the brood SOW
will be of benefit to rectify the
deficiency in the bone.
Answer.-This question has
been answered by Prof. Henry
in a practical manner in his test.
Wherein he showed that shotes
placed within flloored pen fed
on only boltedF flour, and given
to drink only rain water. That
while the pigs when first penned
were strong aud healthy, that
after feeding themacert time
without any bone-making feed,
they became so weak that thew
were una BILE tosustain themselves
in standing up through weakness
of the bone. Then as a further
test he then commenced sitting
ashes into the water that they
were drinking, whereas the bone
strengthened and they we're able
to stand up as before, showing
conclusively that if you want a
strong bone you can feed for it.,
and that, therefore, ashes and
charcoal will answer the purpose
of our Texas farmer.
Ashes and charcoal are fur.
Their an aid as stimulator.
There is alkali in them that
aids in digestion and neutralizes
the acids and thereby helps to as
simulate food.
Ashes is an excellent apptizer
as we'll as keeping hogs upon
their feet with a strong bone.
Charcoal is also an excellent APP
petizer. Some breeders regard it
very suitable and very excellent
for this purpose. Many breeders
make it regular custom to burn
to charcoal all the corn cobs each
week for their pigs, and that it is
in this way abone builder and ap-
petizer, as well as being an assis-
lance in Kidding them OF worms.

The Perfect Horse.

While it is almost impossible
to get perfect horse, one may
come near to 1t if the dimensions
of such horse are known. o.

horse should be. These are the
average measurements of six
horses accepted for perfect SYM

Treat Corn Electrically

Marshalltown, Iowa, Oct. I.
w. S. Stady,a farmer living three
miles south of this city, has been
experimenting this season with
electrically treated corn with ex-
cellent results. The corn, was
treated in the following manner:
A barrel was filled with water
and piece of zinc placed at the
bottom and another on top of the
water. Then the seed corn was
placed in the water and current
of 500 volts run through the bar
rel for twenty minutes. The
corn was then thoroughly dried
and planted with a drill. Thir-
teen acres were planted with this
corn on May II. The land had
been planted'to corn for nine
consecutive years. The corn
averages eight feet in height and
will yield seventy-five bushels to
the acre nearly double the
yield of the fields Immediately
surrounding it.-Exchange.

of the stock there in general to a

creditable standard. The practi-
cal absence of winter and no
necessity to provide a store of
feed for the season of short past
ures has rendered the ownership

dent to the business of many far

into the herds of that section, re-
turns in the matter of both beef
and milk might easily be doubl-
ed within three years. With the
large movement of nor thern and
western people to these sections
this improvement should soon ex
tend very rapidly.-Ex.

Somewhere, 9th District.-The gentle
inquiry in a recent issue of The UNION con-
corning negligent or sleeping correspondents,
has aroused at least one unworthy scribe. 1t
is objectionable that we should neglect to fur
nish what news items we can gather, for the
instruction and edifcation of your host of
readers. Farmer Boy" however, is far too
modest to think for one moment that the
news items he may gather and send you would
tend to instruct or edify any one. He simply
arises to the occasion to remark that he seconds
the request for correspondents to awaken from
their winter sleep and go to work. He is
quite sure that a number of things are hap
pening all the time, in all places, that would
interest others who are elsewhere and know
not of what is going on around them.
Take the question of roads. How nice it
would be if some one would write how well
they are being looked after how many inn
proved ones he may see. Farmer Boy will
never forget the first time he and his team of
patient long -suffering mules struck piece of
"Crosby'' road. 1t was one of those mushy
days when, on bad road, one load was simply
two and, in places, three. As if actuated by
the same thought the whole team came to a
standstill and each mule fell to studying the
situation in front Suddenly the leader-a
noble, intelligent animal-commenced to turn
as if to go back over the route they had just so
painfully struggled over The writer ran up
to him and ordered him to halt, asking an eX
PLANTATION of such peculiar actions. "Old
Tobe,' almost smiling and looking very CRATE
full and happy, uttered one of his mule hair
lifters and gave me to understand, in mule
talk that he and his five companions wanted
to return to Towson and hold convention for
the purpose of passing resolutions of gratitude
and love for Mr.. Crosby.
Farmer Boy had not word to say. They
were his own sentiments. The wagon was
left at the side of the road, the mules I'M
hitched and back to Towson we went That
meeting was held, the resolutions passed. and
"Old Tobe,' very neat expert, deposited
them on the desk of his beloved Road Engi-
neer with his good off hind leg This meeting
around Towson and the conclusion is they are
the sleeping ones, for even negligent writer
would have made use of such rare item.

To Amend the County Road Law
Under this caption the Baltimore Negs says ::
ut is authoritatively stated that an effort will
be made on the part of certain disgruntled
ofice-seekers and politicians and a few resi-
dents of Baltimore county to amend the pres
ent county road law during the present ses-
sion of the Legislature so as to compel the
Governor, in the future, to appoint a resident
of this State to the Office of Road Engineer
now held by Mr.. Walter w. Crosby, of Massa-
chusetts.
IF such move is made it will be vigorously
opposed by the right-thinking residents and
taxpayers of the county, and already the
forces of the opposition have begun to organ
ize, and will be ready to forestall any such at
tempt at a moments notice.
THE majority of the taxpayers in the county
do not believe that Mr. Crosby has had fair
show, as he has been in office only one year.
1t is the opinion of many that within that time
be has borne out his reputation as a road ex-
pert and has been the direct means of saving
the county large sums of money.
THE first annual report of Mr. Crosby will
be ready for distribution about February 1st
The report, besides containing an itemized ac-
count of the sums used upon roads and
bridges during the past year, will contain a
very comprehensive review of the effect of the
new law in the county and also number of
suggestions which, if carried out, it is thought.
will be of benefit to the county in the future"
