Treatment of Ringbone.
Dawson County, Ga ,
March 14, 1878.
Editor Eay'e. I have a horse suffer
ing with ring bone. He is a good
animal and if you can give me any
remedy for this trouble you will do
mo a great favor. J. O.
Our correspondent has no doubt
found from experience that ringbone
is a troublesome disease to deal with.
It has however been cured by the
following treatment and we would
recommend a trial:
Give year horse absolute rest from
all work or driving and apply a mild
blister to the parts affected, compos
ed of one part biniodide of mercury
and eight pai ts lard. Mix these ma
terials tboi otigbly together. Cut
the hair off short over the exostosis
or bony growth; then, before apply
ing the blister, apply to the parts to
be blistered only pure cider vinegar
in as hot a state as can be borne by
the hand, using a sponge, and hand
rub well the parts. This careful
ly but thoroughly done, apply a blis
ter and hand-rub this well into the
skin. Turn your horse out during
the middle of the day in pleasant
weather. It will probably take three
months and perhaps longer, to make
a cure, and the animal must, as
tfbove mentioned have absolute rest
during this time. It may be ueces
nary to apply the blister twice or
perhaps three times before a cure is
accomplished. This treatment will
bo found adapted to the attact, and
as effective as any you can apply.
Teach flic Daughters.
• Teach them self reliance.
Teach them to make good bread.
Teach them to make good shirts.
Teach them not to paint and pow
der.
Tcftcli them to wash and iron
clothes.
Teach them to do marketing for
the family.
leach them how to mako their
own dresses.
leach them to cook a good meal
of victuals.
Teach them that a dollar is only
one hundred cents.
Teach them to regard the morals,
not the money of a beaux.
Give them a good substantial corn
men school education.
Te.u-b them every day, dry, hard,
prueficle common sense.
A Prescription for Coughing.
li. v ng asked a good physician,
and a good man, if he could not give
us Bom thing to stop the violence of
a cough which almost bursted our
brain, ho said he could, and dictated
the following prescription: Gum mu
cilage, 2 oz. ; morphine, 2 grains
spo ils of turpentine, 1 drachm. Mix
wi I', and take one teaspoonful as of
ten as the coughing spells return.
YVo found immediate relief, and as
j 0 tfood doctor don’t care whom he
hem jits, we set his prescription
going.
i ho mucilage is in a dry powdered
state at the druggist’s, and must be
made a pulp by rubbing into water,
before the other ingredients are
alded.
Three Millions of Mothers
There are said to be three millions
ol mothers in the United States:
N >w suppose each one of these moth
ers should consecrate and train np
one of her sons, only one, “in the
way ho should go’—a noble Christian
patriot, unselfish, humane and scru
pulously just. What a moral influ
ence there would be, with the muscle
to back it. What Presidents, Cabi
nets, Judges and other public officers
wo would have ■ There would be
no more Returning Board presi
dents, no more Justice Bradleys.
And for “womans rights,” what lo
Ine dutiful sou would deny to woman
anj thing that pertains to her sphere
in life ? The mother’s power is in
the training of her boys.
A lion may bo calculated to con
sumo one bushel of corn yearly, and
to lay twelve dozen or eighteen
pounds of eggs. This is equivalent
to saying that 3.1 pounds of corn
will produce, when fed to this hen,
one pound of eggs. A pound of
pork, on the contrary, requires
about five and one third pounds of
corn for its production. When eggs
are tweuty-four cents a dozen, and
pork is ten cents a pound, we have
the bushel of corn fed producing
$2 88 worth of eggs, and but $1.05
worth of Pork.
Don t keep old liens for layerß.
After a ken begins to lay she will do
well for two years, but will fail lapidly
after that, no matter kow you feed
her. Turn out a young lot every
3 ear, if you wisk a good supply of
e K4 H and it is best to turn out young
ken j spring and fall. Those of the
s pnng will lay iu the fall, and those
of the fall will lay in the Spring.
Di England a horse shoe made of
cowhide—three thicknesses placed
together—is being adopted as greatly
superior to iron or steel. It is light
er, will not injure the hoof, and is
more durable. It also improves the
movement of horses. This is a prac
tical subject, which commends i'sclf
to American horse-owners.
Charcoal has been discovered (o be
a cure for burns. By laying a piece
of charcoal upon the burn, the pain
subodes immediately. By leaving
the charcoal on ono hour the wound
is healed, as has been demonstrated
on several occasions. The remedy is
cheap and Bimple, and deserves a
trial.
Iho English feed for fattening
sheep consists of cotton-seed and
turnips. They claim that it will put
on the most fat, is the safest feed,
makes the mutton ut a less cost, and
produces the best and strongest ma
nure.
A simple way to tost the freshness
of eggs ie to put them into water.
