Passing Calves by Hand.

In the Channel Islands, the native
home of the Jersey, much Importance il
attached to the practice in vogue of rails
ing the calves by hand. They are never
allowed to suck, and consequently
never have to pass through the ordeal
of being weaned. The rearer has perfect
command of the feed given the calf, aud
can vary it as the occasion may seem to
require. 1t makes the animal more
docile, and increases his attachment to
the keeper, on whom he has to depend
from the first.
Some of the most painstaking and
succe ssful calf raisers begin by giving
the calf only a pint of the first milk that
comes every few hours for several days.
After the first week skim milk for hall
the ration is mixed with new milk, in
creasing each time the amount of SKIM
med milk and withdrawing proportion:
ately the whole milk. The milk should
always be fed warm, at 100 degrees, that
being blood heat, and then there is NO
checking the process of digestion.
By the time the calf is month old 1t
is allowed to eat some very nice, tine
hay or rowen. The hay has a tendency
to regulate the bowels ard prevent
scours, disease dreaded by calf raisers.
If the bowels are constipated give the
milk at lower temperature; if too loose,
give the milk as hot as the calf will
drink it. If diarrhea is troublesome,
diminish the amount of milk, feed 1t
very warm, and give two raw eggs at
each feeding. If the eggs fail, which
they rarely do, givea tablespoonful OF
castor oil and the same of olive oil, with
a teaspoonful of paregoric mixed in a
pint of hot milk. Follow the oils with
a teaspoonful of pulverized chalk in each
feed of milk until the symptoms dis
appear.-M. A. Clapp in Michigan

Apple Growers and Buyers.

A report from Medina, Orleans county,
n. Y, in Rochester Herald says: Be-
fore many weeks there is destined to be
a bitter fight between the apple growers
and the buyers hereabout, and it all
grows out of the fact that the farmers
believe the buyers have banded together
for the purpose of holding up the mar
ket and forcing the growers into dis
posing of their fruit for song. Within
the past week the feeling engendered
has grown perceptibly, and already
farmers are engaging room in order to
store the fruit instead of selling it, and
this regardless of any price which the
buyers may see fit to offer. The whole
of western New York is flooded with
apple buyers from all over the country,
but they are not active, and instead OF
going around the country examining
ihe fruit and buying for later shipments
they are lettering around the hotel lob
bies waiting for the farmers to give in
to their terms.

CHAPTER x.

MvT was an industrious house
j%I hold at Drake Hill both as to
men and women folk. The
s4SS fields were full Of ebony
backs and plying arms of toll at sum
rise, and the hum and whir of loom
and spinning wheels were to be heard
In the negro cabins and the great house
as soon as the birds.
Madam Judith Cavendish was a
stern taskmistress, and especially for
these latter duties. Had 1t not been
for the stress Of favor In which she
held me I question If my vocation as
tutor to Mistress Mary would have had
much scope for the last year, since her
grandmother esteemed so highly the
Importance Of a maids being versed
In ali domestic arts, such as the spinning
and weaving Of flax and wool and pre-
serving and dlstilling and fine needle
work. She set but small store by Latin
and arithmetic for a maid. not even
n she were naturally quick at them,
MS was Mistress Mary, and had 1t not
been that she was bent on keeping me
in her service ut Drake Hill / doubt
not that she would have clapped to-
gether the maids books, whether or no.
and set her to her wheel. AS it was, a
goodly part of every day was passed

Sir Humphrey bending low

times an unguessed riddle hath less
weight than a guessed one, and some
fish of knowledge had best be left In

So saying looked him full in his hon
est, boyish face, which was good to

maids sake, that it had more shrewd-
ness of wit in it. Then he gave me a
great grasp Of the hand and whispered
something hoarsely. "Thou art good

then he bent low over Mary's hand for
the second time and sprang to his sad
die and was Off toward jamestown on
his white mare, flashing along the
moonlit road like whittier moonbeam.
Then Mary came close to me and did
what she had never before done since
she was child. She laid her little
hand on my arm Of her own accord.

what about the goods"
"rhe goods for which you sent to
England are yours and i'll the great

tremble.
She drew her hand away and stood
looking at me. and her sweet forehead
under her golden curls was all knitted
with perpleXity.
"You know-you know lied" she
whispered like guilty child.
You cannot lie" answered, "and
the goods are yours"
"And not my Lady Culpepers"
"And not my Lady Culpeper's."
Mary continued looking ut me, then
all at once her forehead cleared.

cried out. 'She said not, but well
I know her; she would not own to 1t

daughter that / could have fine things.
