WIII!.T horses nrc carefully groom
ed and brushed, cattle are entirely
neglected; and in such a state they
cannot thrive or do as well as tlu-y
would in a state of cleanliness. Look
at a lot of cattle when released from
their bonds, and they find a rubbing
post, or when they approach each
other, and, in bucolic language, say,
"Lick me, and I'll lick you." The
ofTer is seldom declined.
MR. W. 11. SHELMI&K, of Philadel
phia, has Ih'cu appointed Sujerin
tendent of the Eastern Experimental
Farm, connected with the State Col
lege, in place of Mr. Carter, resign
ed. The Executive committee of the
Hoard of Trustees ot the College
have requested that the supervisory
committee of the Experimental Farm
club should confer and advise with
the Superintendent of the farm on
(joints tending to promote the end
for which it was established.
THE tent caterpillar which builds
its house in our apple trees, though
often doing an immense amount of
damage when neglected, is one of the
most easily managed insects with
which the orchardist has to contend.
Go over the orchards when the young
caterpillars arc just coming from the
eggs and beginning to spin webs for
their nests, and a single stroke of the
finger drawn across the nest will roll
them out of existence. When they
first hatch, a whole colony of two or
three hundred may be crushed be
tween the thumb and finger, leaving
hardly a stain.
In all the principal towns and cities
where railways pass or terminate, re
sponsible parties can constantly be
found who are ready, with cash in
hand, to take all the good dead poul
try that is offered within striking dis
tance of such principal places. There
is never a glut in the market for prime
stock of this kind in said markets,
and the best will always command a
good price and a certain sale. With
these facilities and these facts before
them, we are inclined to think that
our distant farmer friends will find it j
to their advantage to give more at
tention to the multiplying of good
marketable poultry-stock,which, when
dressed in good condition,will always
command the dollars promptly, as we
hinted. Farmers will consult their
advantages by substituting some reg
ular breed for the common stock.
Bale of Shorthorns.
We learn from Major W. R. Mc-
Farlanc that on Friday, the 28th in
stant, he will ofTer at public sale, at
his home near Rccdsville, Mi 111 in
county, bis entire herd of Kentucky
Shorthorns, numbering some seven
teen head. Visitors at our fair last
Fall will remember with pleasure the
herd Major McF. exhibited there, and
join with us lb hoping that some of
Centre county's attendants at the
sale will return with the prizes we
, kdow they will find there.
Coal Tar and Comport for Corn.
A private letter from a very intel
ligent and deserving gentleman in
Morris county, N. J., contains a cou
ple of items of interest to corn farm
ers, and we give tbem for the benefit
of our readers. We have repeated
ly proven the value of the compost
spoken of on our own farm, but havo
never used the tar for the purpose
mentioned. We shall experiment
with it the coming season, but re
commend caution, fearing that in bad
weather it might possibly rot the
corn:
A small quantity of coal tar mixed
with the corn before planting will in
aure it agsioat the depredations of birds,
. squirrel*, etc. A tablespoonful of coal
tar is enough to mix with a bushel of
eorn. The tar is first mixed thoroughly
with the corn, water is next added, af
ter which plaster enough to abeorb the
water and prevent the kernels from
sticking together U mixed in. Corn i
prepared in this manner lor planting I
will not bo disturbed by any of the or
dinary (tests of the (armer, and will go
a groat way towards stopping the
wholesale destruction of birds, which
in reality are friends and helpers to tho
farmer.
M. Thoodoro King, of this place, is a
young man who believes in tho old say
ing that "to do a thing twice do it well
once," and has adopted it in his busi
ness.
Ho is engnged in the mercantile busi
ness and also works a small farm, and
as n general thing his crops nro the best
paying of any 111 tho region. When
the season for planting corn arrives lie
makes a compost of "night soil," hen
manure and ushes—two to threo parts
of ashes to one of tho former—and has
a handful of this compost dropped in
the hill and the corn on the top of it.
Last year lie purposely left one row of
corn without the compost, and tho dif
ference between this particular row and
the others was remarkable ami showed
in a decided manner the value oi the
compost.
The Cattle Plague.
PREVENTION IIETTER THAN Cl'ttK.
Wo make the following extract
from u letter to the Tribune by Geo.
Shcpard l'age, of New Jersey, in the
hope that its suggestions will lie
heeded by our Centre county farm
ers. I'erbnps there is no better way
of applying carbolic acid than by
mixing it with whitewash, and thor
oughly coating with it the inside of
all stables, pig pens nnd jioiiltry
houses about the premises. This has
been our habit for years, and we give
it much credit for the uniformly good
health of all our stock.
In 1858 the Legislature of New York,
in response to petition* from every
quarter, appointed a omtui**ton and
appropriated funds to investigate the
j causes of the disease and to eradicate
the terrible scourge. Million* of dollar*
had been lost to the country. The raje
, id spread of the plague threatened an
nihilation to ihe herd.*. The commis
sioner* appointed were admirably fitted
i to execute the imjortant and respon
sible duties of the office. They were
ilencral Marcena R. Patrick, Lewi* F.
Allen nnd John Stanton fiould. The
work was entered upon with energy.
Texas was visited by commissioner*
from various States : the raising and
care of cattle on the great ranches were
observed ; the manner of sending them
to tho stock market of Kansas ; the
rail and steam transportation exnmin
ed ; the stock yards in St. I.oui*. I'airo,
Chicago, Buffalo, Albany nnd New York
i visited. The commissioners called to
| their aid the ablest scientific tab-nt.and
; were cordially seconded by the Metro-
I politan Board of Health. Thousands
of infected cattle in tho stock yards,
on dairy and other farms, were exam
ined and destroyed. Barns, stable*
and yards were cleaned and disinfected.
The press was active in presenting to
the public the recommendations of the
commission.
It was speedily discovered that by the
use of the name agent tint brought into
notice by the distinguished sciential,
William Crookes, of England, who
stamped out the rattle |>lague or "rind
erpest" by its aid in the United King
dom, equally gratifying result* were
achieved here. Carbolic acid adminis
tered in a very dilute state, in the
drinking water, and sprinkled about
the barns, stable* and yards, ouickly
and thoroughly destroyed the infection.
In the preliminary report, page 33, the
commissioners stated that "carbolic
acid is an absolute and |>erfeet disinfec
tant. It not only destroys the oder, but
kill* the virus of the disease. We ad
vise all farmer* or drovers, who hare
reason to suspect that their rattle bare
been exposed to infection, to sprinkle
crude carbolic arid abundantly about
the yard where they are confined, and
to put some carbolic acid into the
water they drink, in the proportion of
one part of pure acid with thrice it*
weight of sal sod* to 1,000 part* of wa
ter.' In the circular, "Suggestions to
Farmers,'' under the head of "Means of
Prevention," they say: "When the dis
ease is present in any neighborhood
every owner of cattle should be provid
ed with a barrel of 10 per cent, crude
carbolic acid, and a quart of 90 per cent,
carbolic acid. The latter mixes with
water, the former does not. I,et the
flows and droppings of the cattle l>e
sprinkled with the crude acid, and cov
er the wood-work of the stalls with the
same." In their final report tinder the
head of "Conclusions," page 30, they
stated: "As direct results of investiga
tions connected with this cattle disease,
some of the most brilliant and useful
discoveries in sanitary science have
been achieved. Pleuro-pneumoni* has
been successfully treated, and a reme
dial agent of incalculable value has
been brought into common usn among
the flock* and herds of the State. With
reasonable care on the part of stock
owners in keeping themselves supplied
with carbolic acid, and using it freely
on their premises, there appears to be a
perfect immunity from diseases that
have hitherto carried inevitable des
truction wherever they appeared.
Further than this, the observation* of
the commission warrant the belief that
this same agent |>osseeae* certain prop
erties of the greatest value when ap
plied to "foot-rot" in sheep. From the
fact that carbolic acid acts specifically
upon all germ* or seed* of disease that
are propagated in a manner similar to
the spore* or fungus parasites of the
Texas disease, it is not too much to
hope that it may be used successfully in
the treatment of many diseases in ani
mals heretofore regarded at incurable,
especially the "glanders" in horses.
HORSE* should be watered in the
morning before they arc fed. A full
drink of water immediately after be
ing fed ia a sure way of producing
indigestion, if not inflammation.
Ir the cows are milked a few days
before they come in, when the udder
becoraea reasonably foil, we do not
think they will be troubled with milk
fever.

Harrowing the Wheat ia Spring.
OorfPtpofultao* of Gauntry Omllmmii.
P. Y. wanted to know if wheat or
rye would be benefitted by harrowing
in tlie spring, if it was wowed broad
ciiHt and covered with either the har
row or shovel plow 1 I f I have not
heretofore occupied too tnuch of your
space on this subject, will you allow
uie to say to him that it will not hurt
either the wheat or the rye, however
sowed or however covered. Only
two precautions I have found desira
ble to observe. Do not harrow when
wet; and'harrow before the stalk is
formed.
1 have no hesitation in offering I*.
Y. this advice, as 1 have done the
Rathe thing myself, and with only
good results. After experimenting
sufficiently to satisfy myself on this
point, 1 (two years ago) harrowed a
field of wheat and rye which had
been sowed broadcast and covered
partly with the harrow and partly
with shovel plows. The result was
most satisfactory.
One other item is of importance—
harrow thoroughly—lap sufficiently
to break and pulverize the whole sur
face. Advice given by the editors of
a paper like tins should alnive all
other tilings Imj tnfe ; and in tiiiß case,
as in others, that given P. Y. is emi
nently so when you say "provided
such a harrow is used as will not in-
jure the plants," Will you allow me
lo say to him, ami to all others think
ing of harrowing their fall grain this
spring, it is not necessary to get a
"smoothing" or sloping-tooth harrow
to flo this work.
A pro|KT harrow for this purpose
is a sharp, ypright, square-toothed
one, of medium weight, with teeth
three-quarters of an inch or one-inch
iron, ami projecting six to eight inch
es below the frame. If found too
light for thorough work, it can Imj
weighed enough to do it. I mention
this kind first Is-causc it is the one
I have used, and which lias served
me well. Second, the sloping-toothed
harrows. These have been so widely
recommended and advertised for this
special purpose as to need no words
from me. I have, however, seen
grain fields so crusted in the spring
that an ordinary smoothing harrow
"would not thoroughly break up the
surface," and it is just at this time
that a thorough harrowing is most
beneficial.
The fact I would like to impress
is that harrowing need not be omit
ted for lack of a certain kiud of har
row. Nine times in ten the same
harrow used to prepare the ground
for sowing the grain will be equally
useful in cultivating the grain in the
spring. The proper time for tins
work is approaching, and if every
fanner could be induced to harrow
one land across his wheat field and
note the result carefully, I think the
practice would become uuivcraal in
two years.
Lam La for Early Market
rr IB U> S-w Tk Wo*M.
In all localities where there is a
market for them, the sale of an early
lamb will bring its possessor more
money than that of its mother with
her fleece. The winter having l>cen
destructive to sheep, especially at
the West, lamb* will be in active de
mand at fair prices during the com
ing spring. It remains therefore with
the flock-inostcrs who feed for mut
ton to look carefully after both ewes
and lamtra if they desire to make
this what it should be, one of the
most profitable of crops.
It is well to bear in mind that
April, May and June are the months
which bring the golden prices. Af
ter this time the distinction made
between the flesh of lamb and mut
ton is no longer marked, and prices
come more nearly together.
The breed with marketmcn matters
little, provided the lambs are offered
in good condition.
Ewes that have lost their lambs
should be made to foster another
lamb or at least forced to help feed
it, as milk from the ewe is attended
with liettcr results than the most ju
dicious hand feeding. Kwes induced
to serve as foster-mothers soon ac
cept the situation and readily adopt
the second lamlt.
While early lambs, as has been al
ready said, bring the highest prices,
late lambs, particularly in cold back
ward seasons, often prove most profit
able, being less costly and trouble
some to rear. In any event, the
packing of the animals for shipment,
though the distance be short, is one
demanding careful consideration. The
farmer cannot afford loss of weight
which will occur if the lamb* are
forced to suffer much inconvenience.
A box made of lath for each lamb
and large enough to allow the ani
mal to both stand and lie down, while
not absolutely necessary, pays in the
end.
To MARK Wool. Uwrroß*.—Bheep
must be kept in a uniform condition
to produce good wool. When the
condition of the sheep is kept uni
form the wool will be uniform. If
the sheep are allowed to grow poor
and then suddenly fatted, or vioe
versa, the staple of the wool changes
in the same wav. Combing wool in
jures it materially, as where the weak
plaoes oocur it gives way. Fat sheep
make fat wool. I bare beard it said
that feeding corn to sheep made them
shed their wool. No doubt it is true,
ss the corn brought them rapidly
from poverty to flesh—the sudden
clrnngu causing tiie shedding of wool,
which rightfully is attributed to the
coru.
A Grafting Leeson for Boys.
Corrr*|xiii(l.ca of K*w York Trtbniio.
The Spring that 1 was sixteen, with
a little showing by a good practical
grafter—which is the best instruc
tion a young grafter can have—l set
about twenty-five grafts, half or more
of which grew. The llrst experiment
should Imj made on some thrifty
stocks that can well Imj spared, if
you fail; or, you can set plenty of
grafts so that if not more than half
of them grow there will still Imj
enough. But if you do so well that
they all grow do not hesitate to cut
half of them off or your tree will be
too thick. Parents, give your boys
a chance, and let them try ; and if
they succeed they will always look at
ami Hpeuk of their first grafting with
pride. And if you are kind-hearted
you will present to them the tree,
which will greatly encourage them.
Remember, you were once boys, and
do not call it wasting time to rnuke a
tree that bears apples that would
make a pig squeal is-ar any desirable
kind. The next Spring, without any
assistance whatever, 1 set twenty
four apple and cherry grafts (some of
them under not very fuvorahlc cir
cumstances) ; twenty-one of these
grew, which was aliout as well as
most professional grafters do, who
j charge three edits each for their
grafts. Four of these were cherry—
shout as difficult as any—cut Feb.
i 28, a warm, wet day, tied in a buneb,
labelled, the buts evened ami stuck
two inches in the wet dirt, close to j
the north side of a building, and set
March 2H, on surviving stocks, on
which a good grafter had failed the
previous Spring. Every one of these
grew. 1 think the reason 1 was more
successful than he, with the cherry
grafts, was that 1 cut and set mine
much earlier, for not one that be act
! for us the previous Spring, when be
set the apple grafts, grew, while the
apple grafts did well. Most of the
apple grafts I set that Spring were
j cut the day they were set, and did
better than those cut earlier. I make
my wax by first melting four parts
resin (thoroughly, or there wili be
lumps in the wax), then add two
; parts bees wax, and one part tallow,
and when it is all thoroughly melted
|>our it into a pail of cold water and
work it up into rolls, with a little
grease on the hands.
The Fanners' Friends.
from lb* fj'riiijfUM U*|.hh< o.
The Bwallow, swift and nigbthawk
are the guardians of the atmosphere.
They check the increase of insects
j that otherwise would overload it.
Woodpeckers, creepers and chicka
dees are the guardians of the trunks
of trees. Warblers ami fly-catchers
protect the foliage. Thrushes, hlack
| birds, crows and larks protect the
| surface of the soil; sni|ie and wood
cock protect the aoii under the sur
face. Each trilic has its respective
duties to perform in the economy of
nature; and it is an undoubted fact
that if the birds were all swept away
from off the earth, man could not
live upon it, vegetation would wither
and die, and insects • would become
so numerous that no living thing
could withstand their attacks.
The wholesale destruction occa
sioned by the grasshopper*, which
have lately devastated the West, is
undoubtedly caused by the thinning
out of the birds, such as grouse,
prairie hens, etc., which feed upon
them. The great and inestimable
service done to the farmer, gardener
and florist by the birds is only be
coming known by sad cxjieriencc.
Spare the birds and save your fruit.
The little corn and fruit taken by
tlicm is more than compensated by
the vast quantities of noxious in
sects destroyed. The long persecut
ed crow has been found, by actual
experiment, to do far more good by
' the vast quantity of grubs and in
sects he devours than the little harm
he does in a few grains of corn be
pulls up. lie ia one of the farmer's
best friends. '
Hog vs. Hen.
Fanners will feed a bushel of corn
to produce six pounds of jiork, while
the same amount of corn will keep a
good laying hen one year, and ahe
will produce at least twelve doxen
eggs, averaging eighteen cents per
dozen, which would equal $2.16; in
addition she would rear a brood of
chickens worth as much more, mak
ing a total of nearly Ave dollars,
against six pounds of pork at ten
cents, equalling sixty cents; or, in
other words, the hen will yield seven
times as much as the pig on the
same quantity of food.
And R WUI Help the Wheat Too.
at Practical hmm.
If you want to get a good stand of
clover, in the epring as soon as the
ground is settled, go on to It with a
two-horse harrow; have the teeth per
fectly sharp so that they will cut the
ground up prettv well; then sow at
the rate of one bushel to five acres.
Some farmers do not sow thick
enough; that ia the reason why the
clover don't stand the winter better.
