DISEASES OF THE HORSE,
CRACKED HOOF.
This disease, also called sand-crack, oc
curs only in the hoof that is dry, hard, brit
tle and contracted. The hoof in a natural,
elastic condition can be bruised, but not split
up if double the force that splits th - dry,
contracted hoof is applied. This crack oc
curs most generally at the quarters, and al
most. always in the fore feet, they being al
most alone subject to contraction. If the
crack extends through the hoof it causes
very painful lameness.
For treatment, the foot mustfirst be care
fully examined, to see that no dirt has worked
in under the hoof; the loose parts of the
born must be cut away ; a pledget of tow,
saturated with sulphate of chloride of zinc,
or tincture of myrrh, should be applied, and
;i bandage carefully put on to keep it in
place and keep out the dirt. As soon as the
new horn has grown down a little, draw a
line across the top of the crack with a draw
ing knife or firing-iron, and apply a little tar
or hoof ointment. If the crack is at the toe,
a shoe with the band running across from
the heels to a little below the coronet in
front, and united by two screws, will often
be ail that is required, and the horse may
be kept at work ; but in quarter crack it is
unsafe to use the animal, particularly if it
extends through the soft parts. If the frog
is in a health}* condition, which is rarely the
case, a bar shoe, eased at the quarter, will
lit- found beneficial.
SOLE BLU'ISE AXII GRAVEL.
Accidents frequently occur to the feet of
horses from their striking them forcibly upon
stones and other hard substances. Pres
sure of the shoe upon the sole is the occa
sional cause of bruises of that part, of the
foot ; and tender heels more frequently arise
from bruises than from any other cause.
For treatment, if pus is secreted within
the hoof—which may be discovered by the
acute pain caused by a light tap of the
hammer on the part of the hoof under which
the matter is situated—the hoof must- be
cut through, that the matter may escape, as
il will gradually work its way upward ami
make its appearance at the top of the hoof,
thus rendering the treatment more difficult.
After the matter escapes through the open
ing so made, throw in an injection of sul
phate of zinc in solution, one drachm to a
pint of water For llie- treatment will be
the same as recommended in quitter. Gravel
s.imctimes works into these wounds, which
must always be removed, and the parts care
fully washed.
FOIXUER.
Founder, or laminitis, is an inflammatory
condition of the latnitue of the feet, which
are tlie most sensitive parts of these impor
tant appendage--. Founder is said to be
produced by various causes, such as hard
driving, watering when warm, standing in
a draught of air, or upon plank floors, and
many others.
The author, however, views it in a diff
erent light, attributing its existence princi
pally to one general cause, namely, contrac
tion of the hoof, the causes before named
being the immediate or exciting causes.
This view is sustained by many facts. Foun
der does not occur in one case out of fifty
in a lieulty, open foot : nor or the hind feet
often involved, as they are rarely in a con
tracted condition.
l'lie symptoms are a full, ipiiek pulse,
from sixty upwards ; accelerated respira
tion ; (he fore feet are hot and tender, the
animal for rebel throwing his body back
up -il the hind legs, extending the fore legs
until lie rests upon the heels, and sometimes
lying down, particularly are the hind feet are
involved: flit-animal also manifests much
pain.
If (he animal is in full condition, two
quarts of Idood should be taken from each
of the fore feet ; an active purging ball
should be given, followed by one drachm
doses of belladonna made info pills every
foiir hours; pbultices of flaxseed meal
should be applied to the feet for several
days ; injections of soap and water, also,
ought not to be neglected. By this treat
ment the animal is usually well again in a
week, or even less ; but if the disease is
neglected until it becomes chronic, the ani
mal will ever after remain unsound, though
lie may be rendered useful. From the al
teration or disorganization of structure that
takes place, there can be little done in the
chronic stage except careful shoeing, which
tin- smith should understand.
THE BEST MANNER OF PLOWING WET
GROUND.
Since a farmer cannot be expected to drain
iiis entire farm—especially when laborers
are scarce as they are at the present time—
it is very important to understand how wet
soils may be managed with reference to
winter plowing, iti order to be benefited to
to a limited extent by fall plowing. This
may be done by plowing* such fields in nar
row lands, or hack furrows, which is prac
ticed to a great extent iti many of the grain
growing regions of this state.
\\ hen a held is plowed in this manner it
is very important that the ridges and dead
furrows should run in sueii a direction that
they Yvill carry off the water that settles
into them. If the middle furrows run across
the slope, for example, the shrplus water,
instead of being carried away in them, will
percolate from the furrow through the soil,
and but little or no advantage will be prc
i-rived from the plowing. But if the ridges
run up and down the slope, and if the mid
tile furrows be cleaned out, a great portion
of the surplus water will be carried away,
and the frost and rain will accomplish much
inward thorough pulverization.
Such fields should be plowed with the
furrows running in such a direction as to
carry off the water to the best advantage,
whether the direction is diagonal to the
sides ot the field, or parallel with them ; and
if tiie mi< tile furrows run across shallow
\ alleys, where the water will stand and
p< ictdate across the ridges, a deep middle
lin a. al vc should he cut acri iss the ridges and
kept tipen, clean, by throwing oat all the
loose earth with shovels, at least six inches
below the surface of tlie subsoil. Labor
bestowed in tins manner at any tine be
tween December ami April will be well re
munerated by a large increase in the amount
of grain which will be produced on those
fields. The main consideration in plowing
sm h wet fields is to make the ridges not
mole than twelve or sixteen feet apart ; to
cut narrow furrow slices and deep furrows,
and make deep and clean middle furroVVs
that will cany off the water as fast as ii
settles into them.—j t'oanlrg (leitUemaii.
TW-BAKK roit J'OTATOKH.—A gardener at

ROAD MANNERS.
The first requirement of road manners is
good nature and an accommodating spirit.
Do to others as you would have them do to
you. Always be willing to yield more than
half the space, then you will he pretty sure
to he equally treated. They who exact
inches will have inches exacted of them.
If your neighbor has a heavy load, consult
his convenience as far as possible ; you
may some time be loaded. It has become
a practical rule of courtesy to turn out for
wood and logs, and for other heavy teams
in winter ; for theT say, " we often cannot
turn out, and never safely : so if you want
wood, accomodate us which we are very
willing to do. But remember it was a fa
vor —not your right ; and you have a re
ciprocal duty to perform —one which, 1 am
sorry to observe,is not always borne in mind.
When you have unloaded, and are return
ing empty, just recollect that you had the
whole road.in the morning, and it is no more
than fair that you should be particularly
obliging to those whom yon meet now, and
give them their full share of the path.
One word in relation to teams going the
same way, in which case many seem to
think there is neither law nor manners.—
\\ hen a team comes up behind you, which
desires to proceed faster than you do, that
team has a right to responsible space and
opportunity to pass in—in fact i<> half the
road for that purpose ; and your obstruc
ting him in bis lawful desire is both bad
manners and bad law. If your load is
heavier, do the best you can. In most
cases the very least that can be asked is
that you should stop. This is particularly
so in winter, when it is a heavy tax on any
team to force into a trot in deep snow—
made necessary by continuing at a walk.
My remark above, in relation to the empty
wood sled, applies here ; and if one wishes
to pass you, remember that while loaded
you had the whole road.— Exeli.
A WASH FOR OUT-DOOR GRAPEVINES.
Just at this time is the most critical pe
riod of the out-door grapevine. As soon as
the fruit buds begin to expand and before
blooming, the dark green bug is pursuing
its destructive depredations. It nearly de
stroyed our crop of Concords and Dianas '
last season. When too late we applied
with a sponge a wash prepared from whale
oil soap, say about a quarter of a pound to
a gallon of water. What remained of the
bug instantly disappeared upon the appli
cation of the wash. About a week ago, it
made its iirst appearance for the season,
when we at once applied the wash and dis
lodge it. Those that fell to the ground
were crushed, and those that remained on
the vine died from the eff'eiis of the wash.
We would recommend its use promptly,
wherever this bug makes its appearance.
Otherwise it soon inflicts serious damage
upon the fruit buds, then deposits eggs,
which the wash may not destroy, and by
the time the leaf becomes expanded hun
dreds of brown worms about an eight of an
inch in length, from these eggs, are found
preying upon the leaf, pretty much finish
ing the remaining portion of tlie crop left
by the bug. Of course the application
should be repeated once or twice, as there
may be occasion.
We have found this wash effectual to ex
pel the striped bug and other depredators
from the melon vines.
This soap can be purchased at the agri
cultural stores, and at some of our best
grocery stores. AH druggists ought to keep
it on band.— (lermantown Telegraph.
WORKING OXEN.
! have oiig iound that in all heavy farm- >
ing operations, oxen are most useful, and
am convinced every farmer with one hun
dred acres oi land, could work one or two
pair to great advantage ; for deep plowing
i>.\< 11 will'draw greater weights ami are as
<|iiiek as horses. In lighter operations the
horse surpasses them in speed, but every
improvement in agriculture now tends to
deep, consequently slow, work, and until
steam is adapted to drawing our imple
ments, oxen will be most useful. They
cost much less to keep, and improve daily
in value ; they are easily broken in, maybe ;
worked for a few months during a busy
season of the year and then fed off. The
application of steam to our thrashing ma
chines, turnip and chad" cutters, and the
railways lessening the distances at which
many deliver their grain, has diminished the
winter work of many farmers' horses. Ox
en would, in these eases, prove very bene-;
fieia! in summer. I know one large occu
pier who commonly buys every spring four .
or six pairs of oxen, uses thein until all
the turnips are sown and cleaned, and then
feeds tlu-ni off in his stalls ; and by this
course lias his work done at two-thirds less
cost than by keeping a large number of
horses, As a practical farmer, I should be
very sorry to be without some oxen as
auxiliaries to my horse teams.—E. IU. 117/-

To KEEI" TIRES ox WHEELS. —IIear what a
practical man says on this subject : " I
ironed a wagon some years ago, for my own
use, and before putting on the tires 1 filled
the fellies with linseed oil; and the tires
have worn out and were never loose. I
ironed a buggy for my own use seven years
ago, and the tires are now as tight as when
put on. My method of filling the felloes
with oil as follows : I use a large cast-iron
: oil heater, made for the purpose ; the oil is
brought to a boiling beat, the wheel is
placed on a stick, so as to bang in the oil,
each felhe an hour, for a common sized fel
lcie. The timber should be dry, as green
timber will not take oil. (.'are should be
taken that the oil be not made hotter than
boiling heat, in order that the timber be
not burnt Timber filled with oil is not sus
ceptible to water, and the timber is much
more durable. I was amused some years
ago, when I told a blacksmith how to keep
the tires tight on wheels, by his telling un
it was a profitable business to tighten tires,
and the wagon maker will make and repair
wheels—but what will the farmer, who sup
ports tin- wheelwright and smith, say ?"
I'm MM; IN Atrnix.—Pruning in autumn
answers well where the severity of winters
is not great. It won! ibe safer perhaps to
leave the entire work til! spring, as all trees
are made somewhat tenderer by cutting the
branches. Should a mild winter follow,
probably no bad effect would result, but a
severe one might do material injury. Bear
in mind that no pruning, unless for check
ing growth should be performed after the
buds have begun to swell in spring, and
• specially after growth Iris commenced.
POTATO CAKES. —Take two pounds of very
mealy boiled potatoes, niasli them very fine
with a lit tie salt, mix them with t wo pounds
of flour, add milk enough to make this into
dough, beating it up with a spoon, and put
in a little yeast. * Set it before the fire to
rise, and when it has risen divide it into
cakes the siz.e of a muffin, and bake them.
I hose cakes may lie cut open and buttered
hot. I hey are particularly nicn. 1
