But ° Ln be little doubt that in nine well Sms out of ten cows arc fed to managed an j with better results, Tm“a de more care is exercised in balancing SSon with a larger portion of ultra- Sous elements. And this result can be Erectly traced to the teaching of oxneri ,t*rs in Europe and America, which in action has filtered through bulletins and Jricnl-ural newspapers until it has soaked So the apprehension of reading farmers L until their practice has been repeated bv farmers who have learned by observing * jt if it is a matter of so much impor tance to the farmer to make sure that the proper nutriment gets into the stomachs of his animals does it not stand to reason that he should be a little particular about what he pu'u into his own? He would not think of giving his horse anything that ho was sure w.mid injurious, for this would be worse jhan a waste. But if indigestible food inter feres with the horse's work and makes him less useful, will not indigestible food havean injurious effect upon his own efficiency? will not dyspepsia and disease generally rob his body of its strength and suppleness and make his brain more sluggish? And is not any subtraction from the value of his own mental and physical force a moro serious loss than any lack of vigor in his horse or mule? And if it is so important that his young stock—his colt3 and calves—should be properly fed if they are to grow up into strong and healthy a id profitable ani mals, is it not of more importance that his own children hou.d be nourished well in order that they may become vigorous and force ful men and women? There is only one reply to such queries as these. But how is the farmer to know what is the best food for him? And here it must be admitted that science has dono but little for our instruction. Why should not human nutrition a id the comparative value aud digestibility of food-stuflfs for man bo made the subject of investigation at our ex periment stations? In these times it would be a raat'.er of interest to many farmers to know how they could make a dollar go the farthest in the purchase of nutritious food. But until we know inora there will be no exe iso for tho farmer who does not exercise every caution and do just as well as he knows how to do in this important matter. Everybody knows better than to eat in a hurry ad without sufficient mastication. Everybody knows it is a crime to satisfy his apprtuo and then to overload his stom ach because some rich dessert is offered him. Everyone knows that food fried in grease is indigestible; that hot bread is less wholesome than cool bread. The fanner who is a careful about his own stomach as he is of his horse’s or cow’s, will soon learn what food is most profitable for him. What we eat is only one factor in our general health, but if we give attention to this we shall bo more likely to stu ly all the laws of health. If we only realized what a vast improvement upo i tho present prosperity of the country would follow an improve ment of t;ie general health, farmers would begin to look into t leir kite ens as closely as they now do into their grain and bran b r„. 1 hev would pay at least as much at tention to food as they now do to fodder.

Will Thorough Harrowing Keep Out Worms? H. S. D. of St. Anne, lIL, in the St. Louis ’ Journal of Agriculture, thinks that nis harrow destroys cut worms. Here is what he says about it: “I believe I have found a remedy that surpasses coal oil or turpentine, for such will not prevent cut worms from destroying corn. I will relate how it happened. I had a piece of corn that the cut worms were bent to destroy, and I had about given it up when I went to the field on purpose to harrow it prior to replanting it once more. I harrowed crosswise with a fine slanting tooth harrow. The nmit day I went in the same field and it appßired to me the corn looked a little better than the previous day, so I concluded that it was best to wait till next day, and I kept harrowing other pieces. That day we had a soaking rain, the first for a month, and to my surprise the corn I had intended to replant was looming up, and was of a beautiful green, healthy color, while that of the adjoining field only appeared the worse aftertherain. But what surprised me most was on exam ining more closely I found in many cases dead worms on the ground scattered in many directions. Thinking that the rain had drowned them I went to look on a piece of ground that had not been harrowed, but not a single worm was to be seen. Was not that a curiosity? Ou one field lots of worms were dead; i l the adjoining fields not one was to be seen on the ground. All were in the ground as healthy as ever. For this cause I came to the conclusion that the harrowing did the work. The fine teeth of the harrow served to dig the worm from the ground, and when exposed to the rays of the sun they were too weak to bury them selves, thus they sood died.” If harrowing will kill cutworms and at the same time be tho means of increasing the nitrogen and other atmospheric plant food in the soil, the harrow has much more value iu the crop than mo3t farmers suppose. Who can prove that the harrow does not help increase the supply of nitro gen in the soil? Who has experience with the harrow and cut worms that contradicts the above writer in the Journal of Agri culture? To Catch a Horse in Pasture. Tho American Cultivator says that a young horse which it is almost impossible to catch in pasture may be conquered if the following course is pursued with him: Go through the pasture where the horse runs oneo or twice a day, shaping the course so as to go as near as passiole to the rogue without disturbing him. If he runs, keep straight on and pay no attention to him. After a few days, when he finds that he is not chased, he will probably let one como quite near him, provided they do not go straight toward him. When that point has been gained take some oats or a small dish of salt and sugar mixed—about equal quantities of each, and when so near that ho can see it, drop a handful of the mixture in a smooth place, where he can easily find it, then move on. The chances are that tho horse will make an investigalioa at once and eat what has been left for him. After repeating this a few times he will most likely be in the watch, and instead of running from the dish will come to meet it. When this has been accomplished take some of the grain of sugar in the hand and reach it toward him. He will be shy at first, but will soon come and taste it, and most likely scamper away as though possessed. Let him go, speak to him kindly and move off in the opposite direction. Follow this up until when one enters the pasture he will come to moot him. .Always have a dainty bit of something for him. A pocket full of sweet apples makes an excellent bait, so do a few lumps of sugar. Let him come and hunt for them in the pocket. When he comes near, push him away carelessly and gently, as though you did not care to have him quite so familiar. Almost any horse can bo made so tame in a short time by this method that he will suffer himself to be caught provided ho is approached prop erly. Dairies in the South. One reason why more dairies are not started in the south is the farmers are too poor to run risks in starting new industries, and the planters who have moans and credit are opposed to small industries and mixed farming, says the New Orleans Picayune. They like to make warehouses full of cot ton, sugar or rice, aud but little besides. If a farmer has half a dozen or a dozen cows and desires to go into dairying, ho can start on a cheap and safe plan if he has no noney or credit to start a full-grown dairy. Take the best cow with a young calf and make a note of the number of pounds of milk aud butter she weekly. Then commence feeding her on all of tho bay or corn fodder she needs daily, water her three times a day, tTeat her well, give her two or three pounds of cotton seed meal and five or six pounds of bran daily and warm kitchen slops, with a little salt and a quart of corn meal, and in two weeks make a note of her yiold of milk aud butter. Note what the increase of milk and buttor is worth, and then what her feed costs, and see if five or ten cows would pay for their foed aud profit by the same kind of treat ment. If a dairy will pay its own exponses and a handsome profit then the farmer may add to his dairy conveniences and to his means of making money, \vuh no need of borrow ing money or running risks. One cow may settle the question safely. Don’t Neglect the Pastures. In the press of farm work it is very nat ural to give little or no thought or attention to permanent pastures. The Germantown Telegraph says that in som i sections of country, notably in New England, there are pastures that have been subjected to the task of supplying food for thirty to forty aud more years, with little or nothing be ing done to restore any exhaustive condi tion. Although the natural evacuations of animals are returned to the soil during tho day, in case of milch cows, if yarded dur ing the night, there is much that is not so returned, and as a consequence gradual ex haustion follows. Many pastures are se lecte 1 because of their roughness and the impossibility of cultivation, and the only means of improvement comes from top dressing. And because this can be accom plished with no great amount of trouble, it should not be neglected to the extent of impairing the feeding value of the pasture. Fine manure, bone meal, phosphate, ashes, or other fertilizing materials may be em ployed to good purpose. All insects are not enemies. Some of them are the best friends the farmers have. Spiders, wasps, dragon flies and other in sects pray upon insects that are injurious. There are also otuer numerous parasites that greatly assist in destroy ing insects. THE MORNING NEWS: MONDAY, AUGUST 19, 1889. Farm and Stock Notes. In driving horses on the road let them urink at every opportunity; a dozen times a day m summer is not too often. ft> r any reason you allow a calf to suck the cow, care must be taken to draw away every drop of milk not taken bv the calf. , A judicious allowance of bran or oats at tins sea-on of the year will increase the milk supply and fortify the cow’s system for -ser production during the fall and win- The Colorado potato beetle has been oi>- seryed m Central Mississippi this year.; It is said that this pest has never been noticed so tar south in that longitude before. The freshest eggs are the heaviest, and when placed in water will sink to the ortl°m at once; older eggs will sink par tially to the bottom, while stale eggs float on top. Don’t forget to keep your poultry-house well whitewashed. It can be doue o ice a month and benefit your stock, if vou re spect the health of your flocks their houses must be kept clean. It will be noticed that Texas stockmen find profit in feeding boiled cotton- eed. If English farmers can afford to feed cotton s ed meal American farmers can afford to feed the entire seed. One great secret of the development of a heifer for the dairy Consists in putting off the return of progeny for a period of not less than four months, and better six months, after the birth of the first calf. Charcoal is a wonderfully useful article to feed to poultry. It acts on the blood and tones it up, the results of which are readily noticeable in the bright color of the comb and wattles and activity displayed by tho chicken itself. A small amount of crude carbolic acid (about a tablespoonful in a gallon of soap suds) poured in tho sink-hole will destroy foul odor and also prevent the propagation of flies, as the acid destroys the maggots. The soapsuds assist in preserving the ammonia of the sink. Ensilage and the silo are not beyond the ability of the small farmers. Tho supposi tion that endlage can only be used on large farms is erroneous. It costs very little to const! uct a silo, while ensilage is more easily grown and prepared than corn fodder. There is no article of food of which the consumption is so regular as that of eggs. They are as indispensable as bread and meat, and it matters not whether the ; rices are high or low, the demand still continues and yearly increases. Do not attempt to savetheseedsof pump kins, melons or tquash unless the vines for that purpose are grown at a distance from all other varieties of the same family. The pollen of such plants is carried quite a dis tance by the winds, and also by insects. Two or mar® varieties will fertilize the blossoms of eaob. Once in a full year should be considered often enough for a milker to bear a calf, aud for younger cows once in from four teen to sixteen months. Older cows that may be considered fully developed and of established habit, c iws S or 10 years of age, may, if their calves are of great value, be put to rapid breeding. Farm and Home says: “To keep cows from Kicking when being milked lot a strap be buckled around the cow jus forward of tue hip bones a id allowed to como nearly to the floor. In this let the milker put his foot as it hangs, drawing it tight over the kick er’s back, aud she will usually keep her feet on the floor. A “Lamb Club” has been formed by a party of Tennessee sheep men for the pur pose of breeding and soiling spring lamb, t > tho best advantage, says the Pural New Yorker. The lambs are sent to the New Yoik market, great pains being taken to secure the best possible specimens as well a • to ship them in good condition. By com bining and concentrating their business tho members of the club are enabled to s euro lowes retes of transportation and to present lambs of uniform grade. It will often be found that cows will pre fer to drink stagnant water, even almost filthy, from pools, nther than to taka tha; fresh drawn from tho well. It is not tho cleanness of the web water that the cows object to, but its coldness. Leave the weil wa or in tubs or troughs exposed to the air a few hours in summer. The cows will drink moro freely, give moro milk and do better every way for it. Filthy water thev should not bo allowed to drink, at least while giving milk. Household. Bhandy Snaps.—Mix a pinch of salt and a tablespoonful of grated ginger into pound of flour, and to this rub 4ounceshut ter and the freshly grated rind of lemon. Mix it to a paste with about 2 ounces of treacle and a few drops of lemon juice. Flour tho pastry board, roll out your pastry as thin as possible, and cut it into rounds with a tumbler. B ike in a moderate oven, and roll round your fi iger into a 0010 be fore it hardens, which it very soon does, so you must be quick about it. Keep t m snaps in a clossiy shut tin or they will lose their crispness. Dr. Parkes’ “Oatmeal Drink.”— The proportions are one-quarter pound of oat meal to two or three quarts of water, ac cording to the heat of t ie day and the work and thirst; it should be well boiled, and then an ounce or one aud a half ounces of brown sugir added. If you find it thicker than you like, add three quarts of wattr. Before drinking it, shake up the oatmeal well through the liquid. In summer drink this cold; iu winter hot. You will find it not only quenches thirst, but will give you more strength and endurance than any other drink. If you oaunt boil it you can take a little oatmeal mixed with cofd wa ; er and sugar; but this is not so good; always boil if you can. If at any time you have to make a very long day, as in harvest, and cannot stop for meals, increase the oatmeal to one-half, or even three-quarters of a pound, and the water to three quarts if you are likely to be very thirsty. If you can not get oatmeal, wheat flour will do, but not quite so well. Popular 3cience. Prof. James D. Dana of Yale college sug gests “telepheme” as an appropriate word for telephone message. The electric cars are said to make better time after sundown and before sunrise than during the day. The damp air is thought to favor the electric power. The lightness and durability of white ce dar recommend it is an excellent wood for telegraph and telephone poles, a use to which it is largely put. A process of engraving on glass and crys tal by electricity nas been communicated to the French Academy of Science by M. Plante. The plate to be engraved is cov ered with a concentrated solution of nitrate of potash, and put in connection one of the poles of the battery, and the design is traced out with a fine platinum point con nected to the other pole. The results are said to be of marvelous delicacy. An electric fire engine, which can be tapped for service whenever wanted, is tho latest invention. The advantages claimed are that it can be started at full speed; that that it is much lighter thau a steam fire engine of equal power; that it costs one-third less; it is noiseless in its operation; makes no smoke or ashes; that it is safer aud more economical. Prot. Fresenius of Wiesbaden after a long series of chemical analyses, declares that an egg contains as much nourishment as a pound and an ounce of cherries, a pound a id a quarter of grapes, a pound and a half of russet apples, two pounds of goosoberries and four pounds or pears, and that 114 pounds of grapes, 137 pounds of russet ap ples, 192 pounds of pears and 337 pounds of plums are equal in nourishment to 100 pounds of potatoes. The British Medical Journal says that chocolates, confectionery, dried fruits, cheeses and other food products are very often wrapped in what appears to be and is described as tinf il, but it is really an al loj", containing a deal of livid. Tais dan gerous practice is nowprohibi ed in France, and the tinfoil destined for wrapping food stuffs aud confectionery must be composed of “fine tinthat is, an alloy containing at least 90 per cent, of tin. Cold Tea. —The mistake that most peo ple make in preparing tei for a cold drink is in letting it stand too long on the tea leaves, stand until cold. This brings out all the bitter, indigestible qualities of the t* a leaf, which may be somewhat diszuised bv the lemon and sugar added, but remain to torment the drinkdr. To get the full bene fit of good iced tea first heat the proper quantity on a tiu pie plate, or any iron plate; let it get thoroughly hot so that it will crumble to dust between finger aud thumb. Than scald out the teapot very hot, using a i earthen pot, which is the only teapot that has no black deposit left on it from other t.amakmgs; add to this from the feottla the first boiling water out of the freshly filled kettle, and let it draw five mi lutes, and no more. Four off to cod, and when entirely cold add the sa no quan tity of good milk to your pitcher. You will have not only a refreshing, but u nour ishing driuk. Of course, if lemon is called for you omit the milk. Cold coffee is also more refreshing when milk is added. JACK, THE PHOTOGRAPHER. A Morbid Boston Crank Who Is tho Terror of All Aquatic Lovers. Boston letter to the Chicago Tribune. There is an amateur photographic crank here in town who has developed a morbid passion for a most unusual pastime. If his identity were ascertained—up to date it is a mystery—he would be apt to suffer from various kicks and other unpleasant things, inflicted by persons who have undergone annoyance at his hands. The Charles river at this season of the year is n favorite test ing place for nquatically disposed lovers, who paddie about on the calm waters after sundown and spoon and spoon and spoon until the fishes" como up to the surface and gasp for breath. Naturally tjjo dark of the moon is considered the most appropriate time for these amatory pursuits, anil it is at such periods of lunar obscuration that the crank photographer above referred to comes to the front. Armed with a cam ora, he paddles a light canoe si etitly abo it over tho .-till surface, until he finds himself un perceived in tho neighborhood of some small craft, the suspicious immobility of which betrays tho presence of Cupid at the helm. Then, without making tho slightest noise, he trains his instrument upon the uncon scious victims, springs a little magnesium flashlight and jerks simultaneously a string that exposes a dry plate for a fraction of a second. This, at any rate, is supposed to bo his method, though theasbmi*liingswiftness with which lie skips away down stream, after performing an operation of the sort, has thus far precluded all possibility of in vestigation. Tho outrage has ueeii perpe trated so many times that the owner of the canoe must now have quite a gallery of lovers afloat, all ready for exhibition at so much a head to the thousands of curious people who would undoubtedly be willing to pay liberally for a view of the collection. And meanwhile it appears that engaged or “courtii g” couples who go out in boats to spoon upon the Charles are rapidly broom ing fower, owing to the fear of being “took” unawares by t.iis scamp with tho mag nesium light. MEDICAL. “Thick and Glossy.” TIIE PRODUCTION of an abundant growth of hair, of a silk-like texture and of the original color, often results from the use, by those who have become bald or gray, of Ayer’s Hair Vigor: “ I was rapidly becoming gray and bald ; but after using two or three bottles of Ayer’s Hair Vigor my hair grew thick anil glossy and tho origi nal color was restored.”—M. Aldrich, Canaan Centre, N. IT. “ A trial of Ayer’s Hair Vigor has con vinced me of its merits. Its use has not only caused the hair of my wife and I daughter to be abundant anil glossy, but it has given my rather stunted mus tache a respectable length and appear ance.” —R. Britton, Oakland, Ohio. “ I have used Ayer's Hair Vigor for the past four or five years and find it a most satisfactory dressing for the hair. It is all that I could desire, being harm less, causing the hair to retain its natural color, and requiring but a small quantity to render the hair -easy to ar range.”— Mrs. M. A.
