TREATMENT OF CATTLohN THE
WINTER. X*
Permit me through the medium of your
paper, to throw out a few hints in to
the treatment of cattle during the winter
season. As that season is now rapidly ap
proaching, some advice on this subject may
not be amiss to the farming portion of your
readers.
The first thing to be observed, is to lay \
up sufficient provender, and of the right !
kind, early in the season.
The next, to provide suitable shelter for j
them during the cold rainy spells which
oftentimes last lor weeks at a time, and to
locate them in a favorable position in regard
to north winds, and location of ground.
Thirdly and lastly, the attention they
require during the winter months, under
which is included feeding and housing, cur
rying being out of the question where a
large stock is kept on hand, and, indeed,
if they are well fed and sheltered, no at
tention need be paid to this.
In regard to’ the quality and quantity of
food little need be said, as the experience of
every one will tell them it should be good,
of sufficient quantity, and of a variety, as
cattle are known to prefer a change in
their diet as well as man.
In making shelters, I would recommend
the facing to be south-easterly, the roof
sloping north-westerly, and the ends and
northern tvall to be closed tight. This ;
will not only secure them the benefit of the
sun’s rays ofa cold clear morning, but, also
protect them from the wintry blasts which
are so injurious to their appearance. The
rack from which they are fed, should be
continuous, and placed against the northern
wall, with a trough immediately under it,
to catch what might otherwise be wasted, j
This shelter 1 would have placed on slop
ing ground, facing south-easterly, and j
above there should be a ditch cut of suffi
■cieritsize to carry off the rain-water which
falls from the roof.
Atone end of this shelter, the barn and
cutting-room should be placed, built as the
fancy of the farmer may suit, and a covered
way extending from the barn the whole
length of the shelter, will facilitate the fod
dering of the cattle. This should be in the
loft of the shelter.
I think by such an arrangement, and by
feeding at the proper time, and in suffici
ent quantity, a farmer may not only pre
serve all His cattle through the winter, but
turn them forth in the spring in good order.
Instead of the frames that now go out at the
conclusion of winter, We would see plump
animals fit to be killed for the table, in
stead of not being suitable for turkey-buz
zards. If these remarks coincide with
your opinions, and you think them worthy
a place in your paper, you’ may give them
to your readers, and oblige yours,
FORESIGHT.
CHERRIES PRESERVED FORTY
YEARS.
In 1776, an apothecary being desirous of
keeping some sour cherries for some time
without spoiling, put such as were properly
ripe into a glass jug, with a very wide
mouth to it. Between each cherry he placed
as many vine-leaves as were necessary to
keep them asunder, and closing the top of
the vessel with a cover ofthe like material
as the vessel itself, and filling up the cre
vices with soft wax, to prevent the admis
sion of air, he placed the jug in a well, sus
pended by a This cord, however,
broke, and the ’tassel fell to the bottom,
where it was at lenglhsforgotten.
In 1816, some workmen who were re
pairing this well, met with iftfloating on the
surface of the water, and carried it to the
apothecary by whom it had been suspend
ed there forty years before ; he recollected
it—opened it—and found the cherries quite
entire ; preserved, indeed, from rottenness,
but without their natural flavor.
DISEASES OF HORSES.
Colt Distemper. —This disease is cau
sed frequently by neglecting to stable the
animal, exposure to cold, rain, &c. The
consequence is a violent cold, with high fe
vers, and a collection between the jaws or
enlarged glands.
Treatment. —Take blood freely when
the disease is fairly developed ; feed high
on mashes or scalded oats mixed with
meal. Repeat the bleeding twice a week ;
and if the swelling increases, take ten to
fifteen ears of corn and boil it six or eight
hours, then put it into a small blanket
doubled, and swing it under the head four
or five hours at a time. Repeat it three or
four times; then lance it, and the cold is
cured.
Many persons force the colt to rurfamd
jump while running at the nose, which I
consider a bad practice. Suppose a man
extremely ill was made to get out of bed,
and run or jump, the result would be death
inevitable ; just so with a horse when ex
hausted and enfeebled by sickness.
Founder.— This disease is also fre
quently caused by irregular feeding.
Treatment. —The animal should be bled
freely ; salted, and kept from water.
Make a very strong tea of sassafras roots,
and let it drink a quantity three or four
times a day. Dissolve three or four ounces
of assafoetida in a quart of water, and
drench him—if he will not swallow, put
some into his nostrils, and he will be obli
ged to swallow, though it will not hurt
him. This I consider a certain cure.
Thumps.—Thumps are caused by over
heating, and fast riding or driving.
Treatment. —Take one pint of brandy or
good whiskey, beat up a quarterof a pound
of blapk pepper, mix it, and drench him.
Or, take a dozen eggs, hold up his head,
break them, and put them down his throat
—shell and all—and he will recover im
mediately.

BUSINESS.
si mm
r | YHE Subscribers, intending to conti
± nue the COMMISSION BUSINESS
the ensuing year at their old stand on
JACKSON-STREET, offer their ser
vices to their friends and the public, assur
ing those who may favor them with their
business, that they have storage sufficient
to place all the produce they may get, un
der houses, and will not have Cotton ex
posed to the weather, nor have it placed in
a spot where it cannot at all times be found
for shipment; and they say the safety of
their Warehouses, from floods or high
rivers, have been recently tested, as there
was NOT A BALE OF COTTON WET
BY THE LATE HIGH FLOOD. The
location of the Warehouses, to men of
business, are particularly desirable, being
in the immediate vicinity of the Railroad
Depot, Globe Hotel, Mansion House, and
Banks.
They feel grateful for former patronage,
and solicit a continuation ; assuring those
who may favor them with their business,
that no exertions shall be wanting to pro
mote their interest. Their charges will be
as moderate as other Commission Houses
in this place.
