In a recent Issue of Prairie Fanner ap [•cars •Dehorning a long article, with illustrations Hunt.' on tho Illinois Cattle," by T F of Champaign Agricultural exposition, at The method of dehorning therein described is pronounced as simple, efficient and expeditious Following art in brief this description, with two of the cuts. I KS 1— imrE and method of tying T o perform the operation are required a rope, a stanchion and a saw Procure twenty five feet of one-half Inch rope and fasten two three inch rings to one end by passing the end of the rope through the rings and braiding it into the rope again, in a similar manner to splicing. A kitchen saw answers the purpose fairly well, provided ft is sharp, strong and moderately lino A regular dehorn ing saw differs from a kitchen one in hav¬ ing a stronger back and a thicker Rnd narrower blade. It is thus less liable to break The blade being narrower the di section is more easily changed while saw ing The blade can also bo reversed, sc as to saw while pulling toward you in stead of pushing from you, as is the case with an ordinary saw If a strong stanchion is not at hand, set two long, strong posts, eight and one half feel four feet apart and three feet in the ground Set the posts securely Th. stanchion must be strong. Fig 2, drawl, to the scale of one half Inch to the foul will assist in making ono. The timbw used is two by six inches, and may be hard pitie or equally strong material The lower edge of the top cross piece ts five feet from the ground [t is best to have the stanchion this height so as to be able to raise the head of the animal well up. o> it is thus rnoro powerless. The side of I In stanchion next the animal is plunked iq two feet from the ground.

The extra ring is simply a convenience. After passing the rope over tho cross piece the first time it is difficult to get the rope through the ring already in use. It is important to brirqv the rope back to tho bead a second timo in the manner described; otherwise it will slack and allow tho animal to move his head about too freely side, off the Thus secured to ono saw opposite horn. Then unfasten and re fasten on the other side in similar roan ner and remove tho remaining horn. No exact rule can be given as to the place to saw Tho best rule probably that can be given Is to saw so as to leave from one fourth to three fourths of the hair bear ing skin remaining on the horn. Ani mals vary in regard to the extent of the skin at the base of the horn. The thinner skinned animals naturally have the least, and the thicker skinned the most. Tho main object is to saw off the horn even with tho head, so that no pro jecting stub remains. No application to the wounds is needed and ordinarily is not advisable Not only does tho animal suffer but the operation is not a pleasant It bnris out* to different a man of sensitive nerves. animals differently, and the younger more than tho older usually, in Mr. Hunt’s opinion. Every one must decide for him self the advisibility of dehorning. It has not been decided yet to the entire satis faction of desirable. tho public generally that de horning is Harvesting of Grain. It is a matter of familiar observation with regard to the phenomena which de¬ termine tho times of harvesting grain to crops that the standing crop have ceases fairly grow soon after the ears formed It is evident enough that from this timo forward the grain ripens at the expense of the leaves or stalks- Hence the common custom of fanners to cut grain before fully ripe and leave it to ripen in sheaves and stocks in order to avoid loss hy shaking fairly formed it After the heads have is little matter whether the plants remain connected by their root3 or not. In either event it can be seen that the stalks gradually dry up and change to straw from below upwards. A new brand of fowls—the Orpington —is just coming Into notico among English poultrymen. It is claimed that they are good layers and table fowls Don’t let Insect pests get the start of you. Much trouble is saved by beginning to fight them a3 soon as they appear SCAB IN POTATOES. ’Opinion* Expressed by Scientist* and Pro¬ gressive Farmers. The two principal desires of the potato grower are, of course, quality and quan¬ tity, and if only one may he realized tho former has the preference. Potatoes without disease are, or ought to be, the great aim in this day of rot, blight and scabby tubers Of late years not only learned scientists, hut progressive farm ers. have endeavored to discover the cause and a preventive for scab In potatoes. Some of our ablest authorities, includ ing Dr. J. B. Lawes, of England; E. 8.’ Carman, editor of Tho Rural New Yorker; Dr. F. M. Ilcx&mcr, l>r. Henry Stewart aud Professor Goecsman, after extensive aud repeated experiments, have become convinced of the efficacy of special com mereial fertilizers for the potato. Mr Carman, who believes that wire worms are at least one cause of scabby potatoes, says "Whether the wire worm dislikes potato chemical fertilizers or whether these do not furnish the shelter which the worm prefers, wo do not pretend to say. Wo do say that in all of our tests the potatoes grown with farm manure have Invariably been more injured with wire worms than those grown with fertil izers.” The feeling very generally prevails that lific manure, especially in fresh manure. Is pro and cause, ought many soils, of potato scab, to be avoided for this crop. In general, it is claimed that potatoes grown on chemical fertilizers are more free from rot scab and blight, and are smoother, more uniform and of better quality than those grown on unfermonted stable roa nure. In a word, experience has proven that organic manures tend to promote scab aud rot In potatoes. The organic sub¬ stance seems to afford a soil peculiarly adapted to the development of fungi and insects, which in time attack the pota¬ toes On the other hand, results favor the belief that commercial fertilizers made from minerals and properly treated animal products are comparatively free from fungi, and that such fertilizers tend to prevent or destroy any chance fungus growth in the potato itself. Oupea In Chicken*. poultry, Wright, who is a good authority on thinks gapes infectious, or at least epidemic. Unless, perhaps, thus communicated by others, its occurrence is caused by foul water, exposure to wet, and want of nourishing food. The actual symptoms exhibited are a number of small worms in the windpipe and a gasp¬ ing for breath. If taken early it will be sufficient to put a little camphor in the drinking water or a little turpentino may bo given daily in meal. In bad cases the worms must be removed by introducing a loop of horse hair into the trachea and turning it round during tho withdrawal, -opeating the operation till tho worms are itracted. A feather stripped almost to the top may bo used instead of the horse hair. Small pellets of camphor are some times given, and the feather may be dip ped in turpentino diluted with three parts water. When young chickens are kept in clean coops and out of tho early morning dew and rains, they are not often troubled with gapes. The 321m Tree Beetle.
