Stock-Raising.
During the vicissitudes attendant upon
the wide-spread business depression of the
last five years, no branch of productive
industry has suffered less than that of
stock-raising. The risks attending it are
infinitely fewer than those incidental to
the cultivation of grain ; ready markets
are almost always at its command, and as
a rule profits are more than satiSfactory.
Of the comparatively few failures in this
branch of trade, the more important were
connected with ventures in the new expe
riment of shipping fresh meat to Europe,
whisk involved risks usually inseparable
from untried methods.
On and near the Atlantic seaboard of
the . 1.4.tatl States are eleven cities that
had in 1480, -an aggregate population of
3,104,934, and which now have a popula
tion estimated at hard on 400,000,000, all
non-phi:1100f live stock, and all gener
ous consumers of the products of animals—
meat, pork, hams, bacon. The six princi
pal cities of the eleven—New York, Brook
lyn, Jersey-City, Boston, Philadelphia and
Battitnereptd an aggregate population
in 187' of- 2412,840, now estimated at
3,500,000. The deliveries at these cities
of live stock of all kinds from the West,
Northwest and Southwest, have been for
the last nine years, on an average, 5,894,-
125 head, including only cattle, sheep and
swine, with a maximum of 7,053,948 head
in 1873, and a minimum of 4,911,387 in
1853.
The deliver of the product of animals
t
at t .1 t - ern the interior, for export
, . . et .
and . :,.. , have latterly assumed a
very considerable magnitude, but there
has been no record kept of the aggregate
movement from the Western States, or of
direction of the movement, except as in
dicated in the deliveries at seaboard ports.
The number of sitine in the United States
in 1875 was 28,035,700. The annual
slaughter of hogs, including only the sum
mer and winter packing publicly reported,
is about one-quarter of the whole number
of hogs in the country, and, including the
deliveries at the principal seaboard ports,
the annual slaughter is about one third of
the aggregate supply.
Nest to the domestic markets, the grow
ing importance of our newly-opened trade
in dead meat and live cattle with England
and 'Scotland attracts attention. The ship
ments of ciead meat, thus far, have only
been a partial success, and arc declining;
batjust in proportion as that branch of
expert trade has dwindled away, the ship
ments of-iivn cattle have increased, not
only from &ew York, but from Boston and
the Canadian ports.
The total shipments from Boston since
January I—that is, to August 6—foot up
29,205 head, including 19,448 head of
beef cattle, 4,983 sheep, 4,572 hogs and
202 horses. The exports of hogs have
not proved successful, owing to the loss of
so large a number by sickness. Constant
improvements are making in the adapta
tion of steamship facilities to the peculiar
requirements of the trade. We see it
stated that parties in Liverpool intend soon
to test the practicability of the transporta
tion of hogs in a sound condition and on
a #and;scale. They have purchased a
stern r; end will have her fitted up for
thfasccimmbdation of 2,500 hogs between
de besides a large number of cattle on
thioniirderk. If the experiment proves
a minas: a fine of steamers will be estab
lished for that special trade.
IndiroVtls bearing upon this subject, we
have Boole interesting statistics of cattle
raising In the United Kingdom during the
last fete years, embodied in an official re
turn made last month to the House of
Commons. In 1867 the number of cattle,
sheep Ad pigs in Great Britain and Ire
land was 46,700,000 while in 1877 it had
fallen to 45,900,000, a decrease of 1f
per Gent_ in ten years, in spite of the
indueetients offered by the high price of
animal food; This decrease has no satis
factory explanation. The area of arable
land lies not increased, but the permanent
pasturage has ; so that, with a greater ex
tent of had under grass or crops for feed
ing animals, there are fewer animals than
in 1867. paring the same period the
population has risen from 30,334,000 to
34,444,000; as increase of 1I per cent.
To eke out the home supply, the United
Kingdom increased its imports of live cat
tle, and the products of animals from
$83,185,000 in 1867 to $180,780,000, in
1877. Inexhaustible as are the flocks and
herds of the West and Southwest, the
growiit weietisities of our population and
the markets abroad have been such as to
pot their ability, as a source of supply, to
a sevete test; and as those necessities must
keep pace with the increase of population,
it is safe to conclude that there will be
markets in the future, as in the past, for
every head of cattle than can be raised.
Custards.
One quart of new milk, seven eggs, one
tablespoonful of corn flour, six ounces of
sugar. Boil the milk and sugar together
in a lined sauce pan, mix the corn flour
to the thickness of cream, pour on the hot
milk, whisk the yolks of the seven eggs,
and the whites of four, mix them with the
milk, pour all into a jug, set the jug in a
sauce pan of boiling water, stir until the
custard thickens, but on no account allow
it to boil or it will instantly curdle, serve
in custard glasses. Custards may be
flavored by allowing a few leaves of sweet
bay to stand in the milk while it simmers
or the very thinnest outer rind of lemon
peel may be used. If these are not at
hand, a few drops of essence of almonds
or lemon may be stirred in when the
custards are finished.
CHARCOAL has been discovered to be a
sure cure for burns. By laying a piece of
charcoal upon the burn the pain subsides.
By leaving the charcoal on one hour the
wound is healed, ashas been demonstrated
on several occasions.
REPAIR tools and buildings at a proper
time, and do not suffer subsequent three
fold expenditure of time and money.

V_l-i]GETITE.
PURIFIES THE BLOOD AND GIVES
STRENGTH.
DU QUOIN, ILL., Jan. 1875,
MR. 11. R. STEVENS
Dear Sir—Your "Vegetine" has been doing wonders
for me. Have been having the Chills and fercr, con
tracted in the swamps of the Suuth, nothing giving me
relief until I began the use of your Vegetine, it giving
me immediate relief, toning up my system purifying
my blood, giving strength ; whereas all other medicines
weakened me, and filled my system with ;poison • and I
am satisfied that If families that live in the ague districts
of the South and West would take Vegetine two or three
times a week, they would nut be troubled with the
"Chills" or the malignant Freers that prevail at certain
times of the year, save doctors' hills, and live to n prod
old age. RA,specifully yours,
J. E.
Agent IlenderBon'B Loma, St. Louie, Mo.
ALL DUMMIES 11P THE BLoon. If Vegetine will relieve
pain, cleanse, purify, and cure such diseases, restoring the
patient to perfect health, after trying different physicians,
many remedies, suffering for years, is it not conclusive
proof, if you are a sufferer, you can be cured ? Why is this
medicine performing such great cures? It works in the
blood, in the circulating fluid. It can truly be called the
Great Blood Purifier. The great source of disease origi
nates in the blood; and no medicine that does not act
directly upon it, to purify and renovate, has auy just
claim upon public attention.
VEGE TINE
HAS ENTIRELY CURED ME OF
VERTIGO.
Canto, ILL, Jan., 23, 1878.
H. R. STEVENS ,-
Dear Sir,—l have used several bottles of "Vegettne"; it
has entirely cured me of Vertigo. I bare also used it for
Kidney Complaint. It is the beet medicine for kidney
complaint. I would recommend it as a blood purifier.
N. YOCUM.
PAIN AND DISEASE. Can vf„e expect to enjoy good health
when bad or corrupt humors circulate with the blood,
causing pain and disease; and those humors, being depos
ited through the entire body, produce pimples, eruptions,
ulcers, indigestion, costiveness, headaches, neuralgia,
rheumatism, and numerous other complaints ? Remove
the cause by taking Vegetine, the most reliable remedy
for cleansing and purifying the blood.
VEGETINE
I BELIEVE IT TO BE A GOOD MED-
CINE
Menu, 0., March 1, 1877.
Ma. STEVENP :
Dear Sir,—l wish to intbrm you what your Vegetine has
done for me. I have been afflicted with Neuralgia, and
after using three bottles of the Vegetine was entirely re
lieved. I also found my general health much improved.
1 believe it to be a good medicine. Yours truly,
FRED. lIARVERgYICK.
Vegetine thoroughly eradicates every kind of humor
and restores the entire system to a healthy condition.

CHEAP
KANSAS LANDS ! '
We own and control the Railway lands of TREGO CO.,
KANSAS, about equally divided by the Kansas Pacific R.
It., which we are selling at an average of $3.25 per acre
on easy terms of payment. Alternate sections of Govern
ment lands can be taken as homesteads by actual settlers.
These lands lie in the Great Limestone Belt of Central
Kansas. the best winter wheat producing district of the
United States, yielding font 20 to 35 Bushels per acre.
The average yearly rainfall in this county is nearly 33
Inches per annum, one-third greater than in the much-ex
tolled Arkansas Valley, which has a yearly rainfall of less
than 23 inches per annum in the same longitude.
Stock-Raising and Wool-Gmwing l itre very remunerative.
The winters are short and mild. Stock will live all the
year on grass Living Streams and Springs are numerous.
Pure water is found in wells from 20 to 60 feet deep. The
Healthiest Climate in the World! No fever and ague there.
No muddy or impassable roads. Plenty of fine building
tone, lime and sand. These lands are being rapidly set
tled by the best class of Northern and Eastern people, and
will so appreciate in value by the improvements now be
ing made as to make their purchase at present prices on*
of the very best investments that can be made, aside from
the profits to be derived from their cultivation. Members
of our firm reside in WA-KEENEY, and will show lam'
at any time. A pamphlet, giving lull information in re
gard to soil, climate, water supply, &c., will be sent free
on request. Address,
