RAISING BEEF CALVES.
BE Ready for the Market MT
the Top Price.

I'm successfully growing calves l
prefer an April calf of good beef
stock" says correspondent of the
Indiana Farmer. "The mother should
be well taken. care of, fed on plenty
of clover hay, ground corn and oats,
mixed half and half. Let the calf
have all the finest milk that it
wants; then take it away from the
COW and put it in stable handy and
where the COW can see it, if it is bad
weather. If the weather is nice put
the COW on a good pasture of rye,
with the calf just over the fence at
straw shed OF stack, where it can
get the benefit of the sun. The calf
should be turned to the COW morn
ing, noon and night for the first two
weeks; then the calf will eat if it is
where it can get something green.
There should be a small lot of rye
fenced off for the calf, and that,
with plenty of milk morning and
night, will be all that is required for
the next two weeks. Then the CALF
will be one month old. On May I
there should be a patch of oats
ready for the calf, with box nailed
up under a shed where the calf can
go out of bad weather and eat a
quart of ground oats and corn, equal
parts. morning and night for the
next month. Feed just after turning
the COW out. During the third
month, June, the calf should be
treated the same as the second, ex-
cept little more ground feed, say
one-half pint more. The fourth
month it should have patch of peas
to run in, and the feed should be cut
down to one quart morning and
night. The fifth month the calf
should have three pints of ground
oats and corn and one of oil cake OF
flax-seed meal given just after being
turned to the COW, with the pasture,
increased by letting run on a fresh
rye patch. At the end of August it
will be six months old, and should be
ready for market at the top price for
calves. I should have said at the
end of two weeks the calf should be,
trimmed and dehorned if horned
calf, and during all this time the calf
should have fresh, clean water where
it can go and drink at will"

PASTURE OR PADDOCK SHED.

affording free entrance to air, but.
keeping out rain. If such building
were located near the other farm
buildings, it would make an admir-
able winter shed for sheep, the win
dows being closed, or a winter stor-
age place for farm machinery, the
front being closed in with Tapped
boarding.
When such building is located in
the pasture, the cattle can be taught
to come to it at night by giving an
occasional feed of grain there. In
this way they will have immediate
shelter if sudden shower occurs in
the night. Moreover, much manure
will thus be saved, which can be
drawn away to the fields or piled up,
rotted and spread evenly over the
pasture land. AS the manure is
dropped by cattle in the pasture, it
is of but little. benefit to the soil, as
it is all in one spot, killing the grass,
and rendering unpalatable to cattle
the rank grass that grows about it's
edges for several years thereafter.
Sheep enrich the land they feed
upon, but the manure dropped by
cattle in a pasture is very largely
wasted.-Country Gentleman.

THE POULTRY BUSINESS,
Some Reasons Why None But Many
Sided Man Can Make n Sue
cess of It,

The successful poultryman must be
many-sided. Poultry raising is com
plicated business and requires good
deal of knowledge of a good MANY
things. This knowledge is not ac-
quired in day. Poultry diseases must
be known to very considerable ex-
tent, and this requires thought and
study. The knowledge of the diseases
must be supplemented by the knowl-
edge of the best conditions to prevent
them. The poultryman must be IA
mi.iar with the chemical constituents
of feeds and understand the balancing
of rations. He must be able to dis
tinguish the different breeds and
should know something of the stand
ards of perfection. His knowledge of
all the experiments with poultry
should be complete. No poultry book
of value should be outside of his
library. To possess himself of the
knowledge obtainable by reading he
must devote good deal of time to
this branch of his activity. Then he
must be familiar with the markets
and with the methods of men that buy
fowls and eggs. Moreover he must
have large stock of information as
to how to run an incubator. This is
hard thing to procure, as it requires
much loss of time and mat erial tindino
out what things are necessary to be
done to insure success. To these
things must be added attention to in
Vulnerable details. Because the porl-
tryman must he many-sided, mary
that attempt to be poultrymen fan.
The man that goes into the poultry
business should do so with his ewes
open. He must expect to have to
learn, and to learn one thing at time.

Tho German Army Horse.

Prof. W. A. Henry: The German
army horse often travels over 40 miles
in a day, one-third of the distance
being in walk, trot and gallop re-
spectively. This work means an ex-
penditure of energy amounting to not
less than 23,74S,OO0 foot pounds, or a
feedrequiremento of 14.77 pounds, of di-
gestble matter, including the food of
support. The horses are fed on an
average ration consisting of only Sd
pounds of hay, II pounds of oats and
some cut straw. This ration contains
only about SIS pounds of digestible
components, and sit is therefore not
hard to understand why the horses
lose heavily in weight during the ma
neuvers, and that, when these are over,
large number of animals have to be
disposed of, as not adapted for use in
the military service; they are also I'M
fit for almost any other work"

AVAILABILITY A VICE.
to Be the Bnne of the Amer
lean Republic.

Amiability is our national vice. We
are a country contented. Satisfied
with cur own superiority, fancied or
real, we have the sleek good humor
which is not disturbed by jibes or
sneers. Conceit has provoked content
ment. The result is an amiable pub
lie. That aggregation of humanity
which the politician speaks of as "the
dear people" reverentially-in ante
election times-is pleasant in speech
and action, says the st. Louis Globe
Democrat Crowds are seldom cross.
The excursion company is notable
example. However much the eNcur.
sionists may be delayed or disappoint-
ed, there is little grumbling. Even
when they return late at night, tired,
worn-out from the day of recreation,
they growl good humoredly and are
merry in their misery. Seldom does
any assemblage of Americans degen-
crate into an angry company, and then
only under the lashing of passion at
a crime or of heated advocacy of
party candidate. We get madden be-
cause of politics than from any other
reason. The election of some far-off
individual whom we never saw and in
whose success nothing of Importance
to ourselves is involved stirs the dregs
of discussion into very ferment of
furious strife. Political campaigns
bring always the dog days of infuri-
ated debate.
The vice of anna bility is shown CON
spicuously in the behavior of the
American audience. The audience has
lost the right to hiss. So seldom does
any auditor exercise this right that
when some rude but honest fellow
manifests his disapproval of actor or
speaker his neighbors, losing for the
nonce their anna bility, seek to put
him out. We permit applause, but not
kissing; huzzas, but not cries of dis
approval. Our audiences have con-
strued the right Of criticism as mean
ing merely the right to compliment
We are glad to read criticism in the
newspapers the next morning, but we
object to having it expressed audi
| bly, at the time. Yet who can give
sufficient reason why an audience may
not express its disapproval as well as
it's commentator? Surely dislike may
as well be expressed as like. The av-
erage audience is too polite, too amia-
BILE, to do otherwise than applaud. If
| it cannot cheer it is silent.

HOW KINGS PAY DOCTORS.
Received by the Medical Attend
ants Upon Royalty.

The coronation baronetcy conferred
the great surgeons only reward for
his successful conveyance of the king
@out of danger" For his four weeks
attendance at Sandringham and re-
covery of the king from typhoid fever
in 1871 Sir William Gull received TO-
600, as well as the dignity of baronet.
Twice the amount was paid to Sir Nor
rell Mackenzie for his treatment of the
late Emperor Frederick, and in addi-
ton he was presented with the order
of the red eagle, says the London
Chronicle.
The doctors who attended Queen
Victoria in her last illness received
1000 guineas each. But the record in
medical fees is held by the ancestor
of the present lord mayor of London,
DR.. Dimsdale, who received for his
journey to St. Petersburg and vac
cination of Empress Catherine II.
10000 as his fee, & 5000 for travelling
expenses and also the title of baron
and life pension of $500 year.
Sir Frederick Treves has certainly
earned a generous reward for his
skill. At little more than moments
notice he placed his whole time at the
kings service, and for at least seven
days and nights he never went to bed,
snatching sleep at Buckingham pal
ace at odd moments. His daughters
wedding occurred during these critical
days, and it was only when she her
self drove to the palace and put the
case before her father that he took
hurried half hour to attend the quiet
ceremony.
The medical men who are attending
the king are all attached to his mai
esty's household, some in honorary ca
! pacities and others under nominal
pay. For instance, Sir Thomas Bar
low, as physician to the household, is
in receipt of a small salary, while Sir
Frederick Treves and Sir Thomas
Smith, as honorary sergeant sur
geons," are not in receipt of pay. Nor
can they by reason of court usage,
send in bill for services rendered.
The king may, and he usually does,
send the "honoraries" recompense
of some sort, which compares more
than favorably with honorariums re-
ceived from private persons.
The surgeons and physicians in the
household, such as Sir Francis Waking,
Sir Thomas Barlow, DR.. Hewitt, Mr..
Allingham and Mr.. Fripp, are in re-
ceipt of from G2O0 to C 300 per year,
for which they are expected to attend
upon all the members of the royal
household without further charge

writer in a gardening paper, "if you

MODERN PIGEON LOFT.
Description of an Interior Arrange
ment Which Makes Care of the
Birds Very Easy.

When pigeons are to be kept in large
numbers, it is quite important that
the loft be arranged conveniently in
order that the work of caring for the
birds may be done quickly yet with the
least disturbance to the pigeons.
When it becomes necessary to have
several pens, the best way is to
arrange them in line, with three-foot
aisle or walk at the back.
The arrangement of the rooms in
which from rs to IS pairs of pigeons
may be kept, is set forth in the accom-
panying drawing, and is SO simple to
understand that little need be added
by way of explanation.
The rooms of the pigeon house are
partitioned off with single boards, be-

Bees and Ants /.

Bees viii place their honeycomb
in any place regularly or irreg-

come to corners and angles they seem
to stop and consider. Then they vary
the shape of the cell, so that the space
is exactly filled. 1t could not be done
more satisfactorily if the whole thing
had been worked out on paper before
hand. Ants make hard and smooth
roads and drive tunnels compared to
which mans efforts in making such
things are insignificant.-Na

THE SUMMER DRoWN1NGs.
Fate of Many Gland Lubbers" who
Put OFF in Boats That They
Can't Manage,

Drowning is becoming a popular
form of death again, as it usually is
at this season. The drowning of
year as last, for the reason, no doubt,
that the summer, being cool, has not
invited folks to escape it by getting
into cold water, and thereby getting
cramps. This summer the drowners
have been people who have gone down
to the sea in boats and in large com.
panies, reports the Brooklyn Eagle
They have not managed the boats
with skill, and as a consequence have
tipped over and split out. Not many
people would care to drive horse
in busy streets when the horse was
slsittish and tried to climb up the
sides of buildings whenever he saw
piece of paper blowing over the
pavement or heard trolley gong;
most people would prefer not to
steer an automobile through park
if they knew nothing about it's mech.
anism and almost nobody except a
locomotive engineer would take the
responsibility of plotting train of
cars down the Alleghenies.
Yet there are thousands who lake
friends and relatives off to sea in
sloops and out upon lakes in row.
boats when they shouldn't, for they
have had no training for the bust
ness. They do not know how to man
age the boat in a squall, they have
had no experience as to the amount
of sail she will carry, they do not
even know her build and depth of
keel they do not inform themselves
as to tidal changes, and so try to sail
home across the rocks.
