General Clay Adiudged Insane.

AT Richmond, Wednesday, before a
jury Gen Cassius NJ. Clay was adiudg-
I'd of uDsound mind and committee
appointed 10 take chargJ Of and control
OF. his property. The old general was
not present. and affidavits were filed by
two physicians, who declared that it
was unsafe for Gen. Clay to be brought
into court.
Gen. Clay Will not be confined in an
asylum, but will be cared for by mem
bers of his family.
When it was told to Gen. Clay that
he had been adjudged lunatic, the old
warrier's eyes flashed fire. Although
almost belfast he sprang from his pill
low and declare he would kill the first
man that tried to enter his door.
He said he was allowed only trifing
living by his children, and that now he
supp sed they wanted to take this from
him. "They care nothing for me-" be
said. "They want my property. I will
die IN Whitehall fearless of the man
that walks"
He was greatly unntrved over the
action of his children, claiming that
they are dlsgracing him when at deaths
door because they do not want his
child-wife, Dora Richardson, TO return.
She was to have come back to Viii ehall
yesterday, but did not put in her ap-
pearance.
The orders of Judge Turbin say moth
ing of attempting to remove Gen. Clay
from Whitehall. In such case it is
believed he would kill if he could, and
if he could not repulse the arresting
party he would stab himself with the
huge bowie knife by his pillow.

Facts About Giants,

That very few Of the giants who
have ever lived have been healthy or
well formed recent researches prove
beyond doubt. All we know about
Goliath is that he was very tall, but In
the second book Of Kings we read
about another giant, who had more
fingers than an ordinary human being.
and, according to modern scientists.
this Is invariably token of degener-
acy. Marcel Donnal saw at Milan a
giant who was so tall that his body
filed two beds at night, but whose
legs were 80 weak that he could hardly
stand upright. William Evans, the
gigantic porter of Charles l.. had little
strength. and Cromwells porter. an
other giant. ended his days in lunatic
asylum. Finally, O'Brien, the Irish
giant. has been described as ian enor-
nous sick child who grew up too fast"

Building the Dairy Calf.

What are the chief characteristics OF
the dairy calf? The reply is, big belly
and absence of the first calf fat that is
so necessary in the choice veal. How is
this to be accomplished? By removing
the calf from the dam and feeding it by
hand on bulky food. For this purpose
nothing has been found of equal value
to fresh, sweet, SKINNED milk, and that
means separated either with the centrif-
rugal separator or by deep, cold setting.
Whole milk is too rich and concentrated
for extending the stomach, and the fat in
the milk puts too much fat on the calf.
A short ration of whole milk would Simp-
ly starve down the calf, reducing the size
of the stomach instead of extending it.
The skim-milk should be supplemented
with crushed linseed meal, made into
mush with hot but not boiling water, and
only enough of this to keep the calf In
good working order, while it should be
fed on oats and clover hay as soon as
large enough to digest the more bulky
food.
A simply half-starved calf is misery
to itself and reproach to the herd.
The dairy calf must not present this
appearance, and it requires judicious
handling to remove the real fat and sub.
stitute firmer and more useful flesh with
well developed but not pot-bellied
stomach. Feeding too much skim-milk
at a time is bad practice, forcing too
much distention of the stomach and
aptto bring on scOurs. 1t is better to
feed oftener and less at time. This is
more trouble, but it pays in the end

Trimming Pine Trees.

Mr.. Editor: In the Farmer of Sept.
10 there is an inquiry about trimming
pines and as have had some experience
on this line and am believer in discus
sions in order to arrive at the facts |
will lead off.
/ am in possession of some pines
growing on ground that was moved
over less than Us years ago and there
are some nice logs to-day. On the out
skirts some trees were trimmed more
than 40 years ago and it is surprising
to see the contrast with those in the
main body of growth. By the roadside
trimmed some about thirty years ago.
| took a. ladder and went into the top,
counted seven tiers of limbs down, then
commenced cutting and when | got
through they looked like picked hens.
This was in March and Barker's pines
were the chief talk for while. The
late Hon. S. f. Perley said, snow you
have outdone the thing, you have gone
too high and taken off too much top"
The next spring he said, 81 went past
your pines to-day to see the effects of
your trimming and l really think that
the last years growth shot out as far as
any for several years. You have taugh
the old men good lesson"
One of my neighbors had lot OF
scrubby pines in his pasture. | said to
him, "YOu ought to trim those pines,
then you will have some good lumber in
years to come instead of tree all
limbs"
He said "Let them alone and..Yhen
they are big enough for timber, the
limbs will be away up overhead" Fun
ny as it may seem, this man was called
educated and was on the town school
committee. Let us know more OF
Natures studies.-J. Z. Barker in Maine

An Unavailins Rain penance.

An Unavaf1fng Rain Penance.
No country subject to drought Is
without Its own peculiar method Of
supplicating for rain. That in Kumaon,
northern India, is not the least curious
of them.
In a country where the population
is almost entirely dependent upon grain
as means Of subsistence drought
means famine and starvation. During
a drought in Kumaon Hindoo fakir
imposed penance on himself and was
suspended by his feet from wooden
beam. In this position he was swung
back and forth for considerable time
by means of a rope attached to his
body and pulled by fellow fakir.
Both men were besprinkled with ashes
and mud and were minus oil clothing
except for a small cloth around the
waist.
1t is to be regretted that such pious
zeal should have gone without the ex-
pected reward, for the chronicler sadly
related that no rain fell until weeks
after.

of cypress without knot in it.

small farm. Ours is small farm, only
about 100 acres, and still we keep fifty
head ofcattle on it, beside twenty-five
sheep. We feed silage to everything on
the farm, including the hogs, and believe
that it is economy to do So"
