Tho Live Stock Record says : There is probably more loss sustained by farmers through carelessness than from almost any other cause, and hence the im portance of forming corefnl Lubils. The winter is now approaching, and no mat ter how bountiful in quautity or good in quality the fo;:d for stock may be, if they have not sufficient protection or shelter from the severe whiter winds mid cold rains, tho loss, if not of life, will necessarily bo very considerable. If a min will but observe tho eifectn of cold rains on hogs, cattle, nud horses, h.'i will certoiuly observe tho necessity of shielding them from them. It is im possible that the nwrinul processes of di gestion p.nd n&vimilntiun of food can pro ceed regularly, when the animal is ex posed to all the severities of tho weather. No doubt this is one reason why domes tic breeds so rapidly degenerate when put from uuder the care of mau. It is no uncommon thing to see formers' stock houses wretchedly out of repair the winds whistling through tliem, and tho rains driving into them, making tJicm damp piercing cold. Then it is often tho ease that hogs have no shelter other than they con find themselves. The qualities of animals thus exposed must inevitably degenerate, so that loss is sustained, although it niav escape the observation of the stupid farmer, who supposes that man aloue needs protec tion from the weather. From tins one cause many a farmer loses huudreds of dollars every year. But domestic aniirals aro subject to the same diseases as mau pneumonia, typhoid fever, inflammation of the bowel', etc. These diseases ore pro duced by similar or the. same causes as man. Much sickness and death of live stock may be prevented by judicious feeding, shelter, and hygienic care. What is so often ascribed to bad luck, ought, iu truth to be ascribed to . the slothful habits and ignorance of farmers. Nature commits the domestic animals to man as a part of Ilia stock, in trade ; but the laws of animal life and health are not suspended, and the farmer whose procedure violates these laws must pay for his ignorance or carelessness in money or its equivalent. Outhouses kept iu sufficient number and in good repair, will as certainly pay as well cul tivated fields. Fork How to Cut and Trim. Havo tho hog laid oil his back on a stout table. Clean the carcass of the leaf fat. Take off his feet at the ankle joints. Cut the head off close to the shoulders, separating the jowl from the ukull, and opon tho skull lengthwise on the under tido, so as to remove , the brains fully. Kqmove the backbone in its whole length, and with a sharp knife cut off tho kin, theft the fat, leaving only about one-half inch of fat on the spinal column.. ..The middlings or sides aro now cut from letweeu the quarters, leaving the shoulders square shaped, and the ham poiuted, : or. it may be rounded to cuit your fancy.- The ribs are next removed partially .or entirely with the sides, . The trimmings or fat from the hims and flabby parts of the sides are rendered up with the backbone trips for lard. - The sausage meat is cut A Queer Case of Somnambulism. A very curious and remarkable case of somnambulism, says the St. Louis Globe Democrat tho heroine of the adventure being well known in society circles has just come to light, though it ocourred several weolss suioo. The facts are these but let tho young gentleman who furnishes the information tell the story iu his own way. Mr. Booth's statements are supposed to be reliable. In answer to a question, he says: 1 am tho operator leftou watch after the reRtilnr business of the night is over, From two in the morning until seven I am generally alone. 1 have no omeo. tions to relating tho particulars of the strange affair that lately happened in my presence. There can be no impro priety iu my doing so, as I shall not di vulge tho unmo of the young lady, hav' ing given a solemn promise to that effeot. it ws in this way : ' About a mouth ago, a warm and very brilliant moonlight morning, be tween two and three o clock, I was sit ting in one of the windows to get a little frosh air, preparatory to setting down to writing, which would keep me busy un til relieved bv tha momim? men. It was exceedingly quiet, not an instrument working nor any souud without. There cams a faint knock at the door, which somewhat startled mo, for it is very rare to receivo a oall indeed, I do not re member of ever before seeiug au out side party since I have boen in this po sition. The door was partially open, soid, ' Come iu.' To my great surprise, there enterod one of the loveliest of be ings. She was riohly dressed, as if for an afternoon promenade. I was so taken aback, it was a moment before 1 onored her a seat. She politely declined to be seated, saying that she was pressed for time that she had called to collect my subscription in aid of sooiety, I glanced at the little book she offered rue, then at the young lady, who met my gatfo with an air of exceeding sweetness and intelligence. " ihero was no sign of insanity iu that face (I had not thought of somnambu lism), and I could not account for the proceeding. 1 said : ' Miss, there is some mistake; I do not see my name on the list.' She replied: Then it must be in tho other book; and I have left it at homo. It is five dollars monthly, I be lieve; you can hand it to me, and I will givo you credit for tho name in tho pro per place. My time is so much occu pied in this work I do not know wbtn I can call again. ' " She appearrd so earnest, so ingenu ous in her remarks I felt there must bo a delusion somewhere. Eit er she or I was dazed. I looked at my surroundings to make sure of mvself. All seemed right. There were tho implements of my profession ; tho clock recorded 2 :45 a. u. There was but one conclusion my visitor was evidently temporarily de ravcod. On such an errand at that hour of the morniuk'! What could be tho so lution of this myGt.-rious behavior ? I was becoming really alarmed. I turned to her again and said: ' I am very sorry to inconvenience you, but I havo not tho money with m-.'.' 'Very well; I will call again. Good evening, sir.' "As the lady was retiring, her hand accidentally came in contact with ouo of tho int Uuments immediaUly connected with tho battery, by which Hhe received a severe electric shock. Instantly there was u change in her manner such a change! I will never forget it. She Rereaiued: 'Where am I ? Where am I f What place is this ? Who are you V Half fainting, but conscious, and tremb ling with fenr, she sunk into a chair. Quickly as poasiblo I brought her a glass of water, at the same timea-suring her that she was in a place of safety, that there was nothing to fear. " Iu a few moments she became calm, and seemed perfectly free from alarm, yet extremi.ly anxious to bo conveyed to her home. One remark she made ' I havo been walking in my sleep again' let mv into the secret of tho affair. After giving me directions as to the place of her residence, I left her alonetill I could find a carriage or obtain other assistance. Fortunately I met the policeman who patrols the Olive street beat. Tliis officer come with me. As she seemed uatislied to bo placed under his protection, I bid my charming visitor 'good-morning' and returned to my duties. " Having her address, I naturally calrfd tho very next day to inquire if she reached home in safety. I met with a cordial reception. Herself and all the members of her family were profuse in thanks. I learned that, escorted by the policeman, she arrived home about 8:80. Her eleparturo had not become kuown. Her entry was alike unheard. Only at breakfast did the family hear of her strange adventure. Military Resources. In o new edition of the 'Encyclo pedia Britnnnioa " the following tribute to the patriotism of the United States is found in the article on "Army," by Colonel Colley : The military history of the United States is as strange as the rise and rapid growth of the nation. In 1790 the rank and file of the army, as fixed by act of Congress, amounted to 1,216 men ; and in 1814 an English ex pedition of 3,600 men was able to seize and burn Washington, the capital of country whioh even then numbered 8,000,000 of inhabitants. In 1861, at the commencement of the war, the whole regular force amounted to only 14.000 men. In April- of that year tho President called for 75,000 volunteers for three months to defond the capital, whioh was threatened ; and in May a further call for 42,000 was made In July two calls for 600,000 eaoh were au thorized by Congress, and as even this vast force proved insufllcient for the gigantio struggle which America had now embarked in, it was found neces sary to introduce the conscription. In October, 1863, a levy of 800,000 was ordered, and iu February, 1804, a further coll for 600,000 was niodo. Fi nally, in tho beginning of 1805, two further levies, umounting to 600,000 men, were ordered, but were only partially carried out in consequence of the cessation of hostilities. Tho total number of men called uuder arms by the government of tho United States be tween April, 1801, and April, ls(o, amounted to 2,752,049, of whom 2,050, 053 were actually embodied in the armies. If to these be added 1,100,000 meu embodied by the Southern States during the same time, the total armed forces reach the enormous amount of nearly 4,000,000, drawn from a popula tion of only 32,000,000 figures before which the celebrated uprising of the French nation in 1793, or the recent ef forts of Frnuco aud Germany in tho war of 1870-71, sink into msigmlieance And within three years the whole of these vast forces wero peaceably dis banded, and tho army had sunk to a nominal strength of only 30,000 num. Sndflen Wealth.' " Tho Helona fMon. i Herald has the following story : For the past five or sit years there has been around the streets of Helena a . dirty degraded looking specimen of humanity, Robert Nelson by name, yet universally known as "Mountain .Dew." He could not do called a vagabond, for he was always ready to olean streets, saw wood, or any labor wnere a dollar was in sigut. lie was suffering from a chronic disease, yet ho managed to earn enough to keep hunger from the door. ' Many wondered that long ago ho did nor fall back upon tho country for snpnort. His chief am bition seemed to bea desire to be known the "dirtiest man iu Montana." Robert Nelson is now wealthy. It seems that in early days Robert found himself iu Boise, Idaho. Times Were flush, "Mountain Dew" was lucky, and from his earnings he sent home to his father, in Missouri, $8,000 to invest for him. Luck turned, Nelson got broke, and came to Montana. For several yearB be has been trying to roalizo something from tho money he sent to his father, yet he never could get any satisfaction, and he was too poor to go East to see about it. However, a short time since a letter reached him, stating that his father had died, and that real estate and other property to the amount of $50,000 had been left'for him. A draft of $400 came on for the heir, ne bought a suit of fashionable clothing, took a bath, got his hair cut and his mustache dyed, and it is a fact not ono in ten knew the trans formed figure and features of " Moun tain Dow." Nelson left Helena for his old homo in Missouri. U Unit Yon, Charlie t Kxpcricncpg lu Rattle. I believe, writes a v teran, no two good soldiers will widely disagree as to their sensations during a battle. I tako it to bo a piece of bravado in any man to assert that he had no fear during the progress of a long und severe engage ment. A battle is a veritable hell upon earth ; not to bo in serious apprehension while it lasts is to bo either drunk, crazy, or insensible Tho highest type of bra very is that of the man who realizes the full extent of tho peril, but sticks reso lutely to his duty. It was my experi ence, nud that of nil those about me, repeated a dozn times, that shell thing is not ordinarily nearly so demoralizing as that of musketry. It is not often that shells ore thrown so that thuir frag ments scatter death and wounds, and their loud humming overhead does not cause that nervous tingling which always loilows the sharp zip of the ritlo bullet. The peculiar cut ting of the air made by half a dozen of theso at once is apt to give the soldier the ideo that the whole air is filled with them, and that ho is curtain to be struck by one of them. All, I believe, will agree as to the sensa tion first caused by the impact of a bullet. It is a stunning, numbing fus ing, which for a long tune overpowers tho local x'ain of the wound. In my ex perience, a fcingla buckhhot near tho hip knocked mo flat, aud for two days alter gave mo such ucute pains and such mus cular disturbance from Jinea to shoulder that I could not etand erect. Sohliers havo frequently been prostrated by spent balls. A curious effect of 6hell wounds is that they do not bleed ; tho hot frag ment soars the torn blood vessels aud stops tho effusion. A Minie ball ex tracted from the human body presents a remarkable bight. I have seen them where the lesifctauce of the flesh had turned back tho poiuted end on all sides with such regularity that tho ball resem bled a i-aucer or a flower. A Brutal Husband. One of the most brutal crimes ever committed was in New York, on Christ mas night. The victim was au unfortu nate invalid, the wife of J'ohu Nannery, No. 89 South Fifth avenue. Nannery beat her to death as she lay in her bed, helpless. Such a sight as this poor wo man afforded, when discovered is, hap pily, rarely mtt with among civilized beings. Whole handfuls of hor hair had been torn from the soalp, hor faoe was absolutely unrecognizable, Mood covered almost every portion of her body, and her scant clothing was burnt almost to tho flesh. Enough of it, how ever, still remained to show that it had been thoroughly saturated with kero sene. She was unable to artioulate a single word, but a subdued moaning, that pierced one to the very heart, con stantly escaped her lips. The brutal husband had saturated her clothing with kerosene and set it on fire, but the po lice succeeded in quenching the flames, but the poor woman shortly after died. She was only 28 years of age and very pretty. Her husband was not drunk, but his conduct was the result of sheer brutality; Incurable Heart Disease. Dr. C. M. Durant, in the British Medical Journal, gives the following judicious advice on this topic: All sud den and hurried motion must be avoid ed... Prolonged traveling by railroad is highly prejudicial. Meals should be small in quautity, of easy assimilation and frequent repetition. Especially late and hearty suppers Fhould be avoided. Cold liquids should be sparingly taken. Tea and coffee, in moderation, and not too strong, are not injurious. Sexual intercourse should be absolutely forbid den.' Exposure to cold, winds or exces sively" cold weather, so as to become suddenly chilly, should be avoided. Washing Day. As washing day, in Germany, only come3 two or three times a year, it is a great occasion. The women of the house, assisted by others, vanish into the cellar during the first day, from which they (-merge fct evening with great baskets piled high with wet, closn linen, ready to be takeu to the bleaching fiyld. This field is about half a mile from most of the houses aud in the property of tho town. It Li a point cf low msadow land which extends out into tho river. At one side is a little stono hut iu which a man and a dog pass the night guarding the clothes. In the center of the field is a stone-curbed well. Hither in the even ing the clothes are brought ou trucks, frequently drawn by large dogs, and here, iu the cool of tho day, thi-y are spread upon the grass, sprinkled from large tin watering pots, and left for the dews to finish the work which the soap suds have begun. On a bright morning the various groups on the bleaching field make a very pretty picture. The peasant girls, with old handkerchiefs or veils tied over their heads, gay stuff dresses and bare feet, run about between the long rows of suowy linen, or staud ou tip -toe at the Hues. Others stand awaiting their turu at tho wU with wateriug pots on their heads,, or at the tuba up to their elbows in the rinsing water ; one refreshes herself with a long drink of wutVcr from au uplifted jug ; a group of women sit in the ehadow of the stone hut eating their breakfast of black bread and sausage, while the chil dren make themselves useful by chasing stray pieces whioh the wind whisks away, or ornamentally .turning somer saults and playing leapfrog. Everything is stming and fresh una pretty to see. and invests even the practical washing day witn an aureoie oi poetry. John Henry had been off on a busi ness trip, and had got homo at three in tho mornini. Ho found the doors nil locked, and tried to get in at tho back window, in tho course of wmcn proceed ing a policeman nabboihim for a burglar. "Why, you big idiot, I live here," paid tho injured man. " No, you don't, cully; that dog won't jump. I've had tho nippers on you aforo. lou ro a cunnin cove, you aro. " But I toll you. you blasted fool, that my name's Henry, and I live here. Just ring the bell and ask my wifo." So the guardian of tho law rang the bell, purely as a matter of form, for ho knew his man. Mrs. Henry stuck her nightcap out of the window, and asked : "Is that von. Charlie?" " Who iu the blue blazes is 'Charlie ?' " thought John Henry, and while his heart was boiling over with jealousy, the po liceman asked : " Is vour husband at homo, ma'am ?" " No, he's out of town, and won't bo homo for several days," aud then slam med the window down in a hurry So the bewildered John wont off to tho station house, and found out next morning that " Charlie " was a brother from the country who had come to make a fow days visit An Important Case Ono of tho most important cases that has como beore the United States su preme court for years will soon bo ar guod in that court. It comes from the district court iu California, and involves tho right of ny State to enact a statute excluding certain persons from landing within her borders. Some years ago California passed a law prohibiting the landing of Chinese women in that State, Subsequently twenty-two Chinese wo men were takeu iu an effort to land. Judge Field, of tho supreme court, while holding court on his circuit, discharged twenty of the worn- n, retaining the others iu order that the case might be brought to tho supremo court. Ou ac count of its importance it has been ad vanced on the calendar. Attorney -lien oral Piorrepont will argue the case as against the State of California. The di rect bearing of tho case is on. our treaty stipulations with China, and raises the question whether a State can say who fchall and who shall not land on the shores of the United States. Judge Piorrepont will argue that the action of California not only violates our treaty provisions with China, but also the led eral authority. ChiefrJustica Taney once decided a case of similar character during tho ex;stouce of slavery, holding that a Statu had tho right to exclude The flew York Cattle Market. The annual statement of reoeipts and prices of cattle, sheep and hogs at New York for the year 1875 is given as fol lows : The totals are 452,471 beeves, 5,086 miloh cows, 118,789 calves, 1,233, 984 sheep and lambs, and 1,888,514 hogs, showing a dacrease, compared with 1874, ol 1,662 beeves, and 885,707 hogs; and an increase of 1,410 milch cows, 14,070 calves and 68,831 sheep and lambs. The largest number of beeves received in one week is reoorded for the week end ing with August 80 ; the smallest num ber arrived during the week ending March 8. . Tho largest number of sheep rsaohed this market in the last week in July, and the smallest number in the first week in April. The week ending with November 15 gave tho largest num ber of hogs, and tho smallest number is recorded for the week ending Au gust 23. In respect to the quality of the beef cattle there has been a general complaint throughout tho greater part of the year, The native stesrs were, for the most part, forced into the market before they were fut and ripe for the butcher, and tho Texas and Cherokee cattlo and Colo rado half-breeds were not up to the mark desired by New York slaughterers. Sheep and lambs, especially during the first and last quarter of tho year, have been above tho average of former years, both in respect to weight and quality. Hogs havo ranged a trifle better than for last year, but an improvement of 25 per cent, in this direotion for the next year will no more than moot tho chauged character of the trade. Compared with last year, the average price of beef cattle has been about one- quarter cent per pound higher, with tho highest mark reached dnring the fotir weeks beginning with June 21, and end ing with July 12. Tho average price of sheep for tho year is forty cents per one hundred pounds lowur than it was for last year, which may bo fairly at tributed to tho lower ruling of wool. There has been but a small trade in live hogs hero for the reason, mainly, that the slaughterers have considered it for their interest to supply themselves al most wholly by purchases in Chicago, Buffalo aud Pittsburgh, but tho quota tions show an advance in the average price for tho year eqnal to more than $1 per one hundred pounds.

A while ago a lecture on ex nlo3ivo was to bo givon iu a noichbor- iua: city, aud illustrated by experiments. Just bnforo the time for tho lecture to begin, ono of the committee of arrange ments approached tho lecturer, and ex pressed his regret that no package of materials had airivod, aud suggt-ited that something else bo substituted for the proposed experiments. "It is all right," smilingly replied tho lecturer ; 'I have the uitro-glycerine and all the other tunics with me, in my pockets. The committee man retired to a safe dis tance from the platform. A Sad Kfflection. The Boston Tramcript says : A little, dark, inner room is seen, in winch is bed. The only furniture of the outer room is a table and one stool. I ask the oldest boy about his parents. Father has gone out to get work. Mother is in tho hospital ; and sister is also in the hospital ; have been there six weeks. Father can 1 1- et work, and we are hun gry." Called again tho next day, and found tn honest, sturdy, grizzly-looking man, who spoke right at you and looked you in the face. - " Yes ; hard times ; I can't get work. I had a chance, as I sup posed, for two days this week,- but the vessel ran ashore and didn't discharge. I have dome everything rather than ap ply for help, but I cannot see tho chil dren go hungry and cry for bread. I can stand it myself, but they cannot. I have parted with everything, as you see, for bread ; the last ohair is gone. Oh, if my woman could get out of the hos pital 1 I cannot take care of those little ones as they need." A man opens the door and asks for rags for sale. - "Yes, we are All rags," says the man, and tie tears fall from hia eyes. Mimed to Death. The details of the recout terriblo mur der of a Jew in Harautian (Ekhiitaua of tho auoients), in Persia, have been re ceived. A wealthy i email owea a large sum of money to the Kabbi Chajim, who astiod tho Persian to repay him one day when they chanced to meet iu a bazaar. A quarrel ensued, aud the orowd which had Cflloctod asked the Pt'ioian what the cause of tho trouble was. He determined to got rid of his creditor, and turning to tho crowd, said: "It this man had merely insulted max should havo kept silent, but ho has abused our religion and blnsphemed the prophets. I cannot, therefore, be silent." The orowd fell upon the rabbi and threatened to kill him. lie took refuge in the neighboring house of a rioh Persian, to whom he appealed for protection. The latter couceuled the Jew in au inner room and barred the doors of the house. The crowd demanded his surrender. The noble Toman refused, aud the. doors were broken down. Tho lawless rabble poured in, found the fugitive, drugged hiin into the street, and stoned him to death. The dead body was (bagged about tho town with jeers and finally brought into the market plaoe, where the mouth was tilled with powder and tho head was blown in pieces. A fire was then kindled and the corpse was burnt up. Four Jews, who had fallen into the hands of tho mob, wore ill treated and severely wounded. Tho ' dwellings of the Israelites were plundered, and a sroneral massacre of all th? Jews and Christians likewise would have followed had not the authon ties intervened. Tho Jews of the city have sent a deputation to Teheran to appeal for protection, to the foreign The Deacon's Order. Deacon S., residing in a town adjoin ing Worcester, Mass., was a good, pious man, but sadly illiterate. One day he gave to tho stuge driver a slip of paper upon which he had written an order for some books, which he wished the driver to tiring him from the store of Mr. A., in Worcester. Tho driver called at the designated store, and handing the slip to tho nearest clerk, informed him that it was an order for some books which Deacon S. wished sent to him. The clerk examined the paper criti callyturned it up and down but could make nothing of it, and he passed it to tho bookkeeper, who was seldom stuck by blind cliirogrupby. , But the bookkeeper met with no better success tliun had attended tho efforts of th clerk. Tho proprietor was called, and he, too, soon gavo the scrawl up in de spair ; and it was finally concluded best to send the pnppr back to tho dc-acorj for further elucidation. As tho stage coach approached the village tavern tho deacon was waiting upon tho steps. Well, driver, he said, as tho conch stoppod, "did you get my books? Jiooks I iNo, of course I didn t, There wasn't a man in Worcester could read your old spider tracks !" Uouluu t read ritin ijet mo see if von gavo 'em the right paper. " Tho driver took the paper from his wallet aud parsed it over, ond the dea con, having put on his enormous silver bowed spectacles, held tho memoran- lum at a favorablo distance for reading. " Why," he exclaimed, " its as plain as tho noso on your face. See here," and lie spelled out, letter by letter " ' T-o B-A m B-tj-s 'Two Psalm Books I Gracious ino ! I guess them Worcester folks had better go to school and learn their letters!" Perhaps the deacon thought tho laugh which followed from tho bystanders was in response to his cutting sarcasm upon tho iguorauco of "them Worcester folks." Hive us the Old Cow Ytt. The achievements in science are very great ; but they are not always in a lueetiGii to mako us moro conudent in the food wo cut. For instance ; good, primo buttt-r is now made out of such substances as havo usually been included under the term soop grease. Au ex periment was tried with a tub of greaRn-butter that is, butter that has been kept so long as to turn rancid, to become covered with blue mold, and, in brief, by a chemical change of its pro prioties, changed into grease, with a most nauseating smell, nt lor nothing but lubricating purposes. With this was mixed a qnantity of tallow, some of which had passed through the machinery of a printing oilico, and had absorbed particles of black load aud mineral oxides iroin contact with the bearings of the shaftings. Then a common tallow can die was put in, and the whole compound wan melted together, him was submit ted to the new process, aud after going through it was pronounced by a learned anolytical chemist "Prime stubble-fed butter. It mav not make much uitterenoe, as long as tho taRto appears to be the same, what we eat. It is au axiom that nothing is unclean in science. But the idea of being fed on such stuff as this is not altogether pleasant ; and, after all, we are inclined to think that the old fash ioned chemicid process of the oow la better than any that can be invented, for making table butter.
