The Russian Oattle Murrain- For some time past there have been fears that the Russian Murrain,among neat cattle, which lias been very destructive in Europe, and was gradually working westward, would cross the channel to England with the great number of beeves and veals brought from the continent. There has been less danger of its coming to Ameri ca, because our importations have been very small of late, owing to the high rate of exchange and gold. Now, however, as gold is lower, and we are beginning to im port again, Alderneys, Ayshires, etc., we hear of the breaking out of this terrible, plague among the cattle and its neighbor hood. On the 31st of July a meeting was held in London to consider this subject ■end Professor Gamgee, whose writings on veterinary subjects have made him almost as well known in this country as Great Britain, made a statement of the origin and spread of the cattle plague in and about London, an abstract of which we give.— All cattle brought to this country from abroad ought to be examined by a good veterinary physician and quarantined if necessary. They are now subjected to no examination whatever, and ships are con stantly arriving which bring cows for milk, and sell the same, byway, as imported an imals, as indeed they are, though probably not half so good as our own common stock. I'rof. Gamgee stated that: " The first appearance of the malady, as far as it can be at present traced, dates back to June 27, when six cows, which had been purchased 011 the Wth in the Metro politan Cattle Market, were seized with the disease in Mrs. Nicholl's dairy, 15 Park place, Liverpool road, Islington. Circum stances favored the spread of the malady, as, although the six cows were placed in a quarantine shed, other cows happened to have been in the same place, and thus the malady was propagated. One hundred and fifteen have died. It is is impossibfe now to give the succeeding outbreaks in order of time and without specially naming the cow keepers. I may mention that the mal ady has been and is more particularly con fined to the districts of Islington, St. Pan eras, St. Marylebone, and Paddingtou. It is at the present moment raging severely in Marylebone, at Kilburn, Hendon, Hemp stead and Sydenham, and also it is said at Cheam and Surrey. Since Saturday I have received information directly and in directly, hut chiefly from personal inquir ies, concerning twelve distinct outbreaks. I shall state the particulars in the order in which 1 have gleaned them. 1 The first shed I visited was in Marylebone. Forty five animals, in apparently the most per fect health, were in this yard on Thursday, the 20th. The owner had been to the Me tropolitan Cattle Market 011 the 14th or thereabouts, and was shown some cattle laboring under the disease. He approach ed them within a yard or two, but feared to touch them. Within a week—viz : on Friday, the 21st,he noticed some of his an imals sick, and saw they were laboring under the disease he hail witnessed in the market. On Saturday he began to get rid of them, and sold twenty-eight by Tuesday, 25th. The remainder of the stock was turned out in fields, I know not where, and is said to be still healthy. 2. A cow-keep er in the immediate neighborhood of the last one had sixteen cows in perfect health, and lost the whole in a fortnight. 3. In an adjoining street a third dairyman hud seventy cows distributed in various sheds, besides seventy in the country. A cow was bought in the Metropolitan Cattle Market on the loth of July, and on the 1 Gth this animal showed signs of the dis ease She had been placed in a sited with twenty-three otheis. Twelve were fat and were sold in the market before any sick ness manifested itself on them. The other twelve were seized, including the newly bought one, and of these eight have died and four are still living, but riot at all like ly to recover. As yet the remaining stock in distant sheds is in perfect health. 4. An extensive cow keeper with a choice stock of seventy, purchased a Dutch beast nearly a month ago. Within a few days j it was affected, and the seventy animals j were all seized within a fortnight. I saw j three convalescent on Saturday, but in a j very reduced condition. 5. Near Cumber land market a dairyman having usually be tween forty and fifty cows, lost the whole within three weeks. G. Another dairyman in the same neighborhood has the disease among his stock at the present moment.— T. In St. Paneras a dairyman has lost ten within a few days. 8. A cow keeper in Camden Town had a stock of sixteen cows in perfect health in the early part of this month : they all died in a fortnight. He fumigated and otherwise disinfected his shed, and bought six fresh animals, of which two are already dead. 9. Near Wil losdcii a dairyman has lost sixty-five ani mals within a fortnight." The remedy he suggested was that they should adopt somewhat similar measures to those put in force when the small-pox broke out among the sheep in 18G2, and which had the effect of successfully check ing tiie disease : Flocks rigorously isolated for medical treatment or slaughter, pens disinfected, etc. The same high veterinary authority, af ter stating the facts of its being communi cated by cars and vessels in which the stock lias been conveyed, and which have not been properly cleaned thereafter, and of its being communicated to cattle by sheep, though the latter are probably not themselves affected, makes the following statement of the symptoms during the pro gress of the malady : " The period of incubation of the disease is from four to ten days. When affected the animal gets dull and prostrate, shiver ing fits appear, there is costiveness, red eyes, mouth hot, great thirst, etc. These premonitory symptoms are succeeded by vi olent tremblings, peculiar spasmodic agita tion of the muscles, discharges from the eyes and nose, costiveness and diarrhoea, and sometimes the surface of the body is cold. These are some of the symptoms, beside which there is often a loss of power in the extremities. This stage lasts about two or three days, having all the appear ance of a fever, Lustlj, there is evidence of serious changes in the Mood, manifested through the effect upon the nervous svs tcm, and the animal dies in convulsions. Those attacked become rapidly emaciated liie flanks sink in. Sometimes death oc curs within two or three days, at others not until after a week, while the victim may linger three or four weeks. After death, most of the indications of typhoid lever in man are visible." Practical Advantage of Drilling Wheat- Among the advantages of drilling in winter wheat over broadcast sowing, are the saving of labor, the saving of seed, and securing more abundant crops.— \\ lie the r the grain is sowed broadcast, or drilled, tin- ground should receive the same thorough preparation previous to distribu ting the seed. If drilled in, one man will complete the operation, by simply going over the ground on< e. If sowed broadcast ' tie ground must be harrowed twice after ■ the seed is sowed. This, in addition to the time consumed in sowing the seed by hand will require about three times longer is ne cessary to drill it in. Moreover, the drill, if properly made and adjusted, will depos it every kernel at a uniform depth ; where as, the harrow covers some of the seed too deep, some not deep enough, and some not at all; and if the soil be deep and mellow, the feet of teams will press a considerable portion of it quite too deep. Another advantage in drilling in the seed is, as soon as an acre or two is plow ed, the grain may be put in immediately, thus finishing the work as fast as the ground is plowed. When grain is sowed broadcast, it is much more convenient, and rather important, to have the entire field plowed before sowing, so as to be able to harrow both ways. When a farmer has a drill, he can plow an acre, then harrow it, and drill in the said all in one day, while the soil is fresh, whicti is the best condition to hasten the germination of the grain He thus finishes his work as he progresses and is always ready for temporary inter ruptions by storms of rain, which are of ten attended with more or less injury to the crop. Snch delays, especially with spring grain, are often fatal to a good crop. No man can sow wheat broadcast as evenly as a good drill will distribute it. — But as a man when sowing by hand will vary his steps, and the force applied at every cast of the seed, and as the wind will often blow the grain from its course, it becomes necessary to sow much more seed per acre, to secure as thick a stand of plants, as when it is deposited with a drill. llow ABOUT THF. HENS. —Do they lay now while their products are worth two-and-a half cents each ? If not, use a little gen tle persuasion in the shape of extra grain, and some meat scraps, to take the place of the disappearing insects. Keep them gen tle and near home—regular feeding will dr. this. If inclined to wander off and select the tallest trees to roost in, curb their aspiring natures by clipping their wings. To break up setting propensities, confine them in a few inches of water where they have to "set standing," or on laths, or poles, to avoid the semblauce of a nest. — The Brahmas will persist in setting under adverse circumstances, but the Spanish and other fowls will be broken up in a day or two by this treatment. The moulting sea son is near at hand when they " want to be let alone," preferring quiet and seclus ion. Favor this disposition by disturbing them as little as possible. With the grain food—a mixture of various grains is best —let them have access to green food, as grass, gravel or sand, pounded shells or lime, and pure water. It is better to sepa rate those intended to fatten for killing, from the laying and store fowls, as too high food isjagainst laying, while too little food is a sure preventative. THE APPLE WORM. —This insecct is be coming truly formidable, and a large share of the small crop of apples of the present year is spoiled by its injuries. A new con trivance is proposed for destroying it by means of hay ropes passed around the trunk of the tree at midsummer, under which these insects pass to the pupa state, and are then easily killed. This remedy is no doubt useful as far as it goes, but we question if it will prove anything more than a useful auxiliary. Swine in sufficient numbers to eat all the fallen fruit from the moment it begins to drop until it appruch es full maturity, will doubtless prove very ( lb etual, but those who have large orchards will find it difficult to assmble swine enough to do the entire work in a complete man- ner. It may he necessary, therefore, to lesoit to sheep—the only objection to which, is their propensities to bark the trees ; encircling them with hoard boxes, or rolls of basswood bark peeled from saw logs will he easier and better than to allow the insects to ruin the crop. Sheep soon become fond of half-grown apples, and eat them readily. No orchard should be per mitted to run to grass until the trees have attained good size ; and even then nothing of larger growth than the short herbage of sheep pastures. The top dressing of man ure which these animals will give the or chard will prove another advantage. An additional scattering of manure from the yard in autumn will make up the deficiency of growth occasioned by a concering of turf. MILKING COWS. —AII farmers know there is considerable difference in cows with re spect to the ease and celerity with which they can be milked. From some the milk is extracted easily, while from others it is obtained, as it were, grudgingly and with much labor. The first requisite in the op eration of milking, is to place yourself on a friendly footing with the animal from which the lacteal current is to be obtained. A hasty, passionate or cross person will al ways make a poor milker, it reqiures pa tience and kindness to break a cow in, and good usage thereafter to make her render her milk freely. If the animal is wild or skittish the common practice is to adminis ter a heavy dose of milking stool, while performing several circuits around the milk ing yard. This treatment, may, after awhile, bring the cow to a stand still, but it will be one of fear and trembling—the worst possible condition for a ready render inn; of the fluid sought. The opposite of this course is the true one. Approach the animal kindly, and with soothing words al lay her fears. Place your hand upon her lightly, moving it up and down upon her neck and shoulders. Hub your hand light ly about the neck and ears. She will per haps shiver a little at first, eye you suspi ciously for a time, and then, taking a long breath, yield herself to your management, wHhuut further apprehension of evil. An au mal in an excited state of fear and bodily agi tation cannot render her store of milk readi ly hence the necessity of a good under standing between the milker and the milk ed. i THE MIDGE AND WEEVIL. —Mr. Glover the | entomologist of the Agricultural Depart ment at Washington, in speaking of the wheat midge and weevil in his last month ly report, says : " This so-called weevil is the wheat midge and is the larva? or worm of a two winged gnat or fly, properly called the wheat midge. The midge attacks wheat only when in the flower or immature state ; whereas the true weevils and beetles fur nished with hard wing-cases, and long slender snouts, with which they attack grain or corn, only when ripened and hard, The weevil deposits its eggs on the wheat when in the granary ; but the midge de posits hers in the beginning of July, in the opening flowers of the grain, or when the wheat is in the milky state. The eggs of the last named hatch in about eight days, when the little yellow maggots or worms may be found within the chaffy scales of the grain. They do not exceed an eighth of an inch in length, and are of ten much smaller. They live 011 the grain when in the milky state, so that it never fills out." J9*aV The best time for making cuttings of currant bushes is said to he early in the autumn, as they will lorm callous and fre quently some roots before winter. Clotljing. RJOOD NEWS.
