A talk about Steers.
At a meeting of the Westminster, Vt. f
Farmers' Club, Mr. Horace Goodhne gave
the following method of breaking steers :
If a steer is very wild, place i snap in his
nose and lead him carefully two or three
miles before yoking. Then yoke the steers
in a well fenced barnyard, and drive them
one hour around next the fence. The fence
prevents them from turning to the right,
while the driver keeps them from leaving
the fence. Be gentle with them. Repeat
this lesson daily until the steers become
somewhat tractable, advance a step at the
word of command and understand the ut
terance "haw," when they may be driven
across the middle of the yard, and readily
learned to gee. Keep them car fully
abreast. After this give them a few les
sons by driving in the highway. Then
place them to a light cart. Never overload
a pair of steers, and when they become
oxen they will draw a great load, thereby
making ample compensation for their slow
ness when compared with horses. Do not
put steers to work in line with oxen, they
will be made slow travelers thereby. The
slow speed rate of travel which is so justly
charged upon oxen is the result of their
training, and might be easily guarded
against.
Some of the farmers thought that oxen
well trained, of perfect docility, working
without a driver in the plough-field as well
as with one, costing nothing for harness
except wooden yoke and iron chains, last
ing for years, paying by their growth for
their food, not worn out, or liable to acci
dent, or becoming a dead loss to their own
er like a horse, but ready to be turned for
beef at any time, would perform as much
work as a pair of horses at less expense,
and for all work except for road travel the
cheapest team the farmer can use.
Mr. N. Pierce said, be very careful and
gentle in training steers so that they may
feel that you are their friend. Allow no
fractious or profane men to use your oxen,
it may cause an irreparable damage to the
poor dumb beasts.
Mr X. Fisher, with others, has given
some of the points by which a promising
steer could be selected and the characteris
tics of different branches with their adap
tation to our locality. It appears that the
Devons are unequalled for being easily
matched, good workers, quick of step, full
of pluck. They easily fatten,and do not re
quire the large amount of food necessary
for the Durhams.
The nearer the section of the frame of an
ox is to a parallelogram, viewing front,
rear, upon the side,or from above,the great
er amount of flesh it will have 'to a given
bulk. Hence the back t hould be staaight
from the top of the shoulders to the tail,the
tail falling at rigkt angles to the back, the
buttocks well filled out, the brisket exten
ding to a line dropped from the middle of
the neck,the belly being straight in length,
round,sidewise,and well filled at the flanks,
the ribs round and starting horizontally at
right angles to the back, the loin bones,
long, broad, flat and well filled.
A round bone in a lean ox is not so prom
ising for feeding well and taking flesh as
the reverse. No flesh or lumps of fat should
be about the head. The neck should be
small from the back of the head to the mid
dle of the neck. The bone of a good ox
should be fine-grained and small. The head
should be small, the face being long from
the eyes to the end of the nose, the skull
broad across the eyes, while the skin of the
whole body should feel loose,thick and float
ing on fat. The parts should all be of good
proportion.
Mr. Goodhue gave an estimate of the in
crease of steers in value, year by year, in
the following :
Match your steers when yearlings,as you
can better then than when calves foretell
the future ox—and you will get a matched
pair of good promise at the cost of s2s,and
ordinarily they will gain in value SOO per
year, if well cared for.
Value at two years of age, $75 ; at three
years of age, $125 ; at four years of age,
$175 ; at five years < f age, pastured after
spring work and rendered fit for market
beef, $225. Thus if the labor of the oxen
upon the farm pays for their keeping and
interest, as it richly will, for all farmers
who must have oxen to carry on their lands,
then here is an income of SSO per year, and
perhaps more, as the work of the farm may
warrant the keeping, and turning of oxen
biennally or even yearly. — Ex.
To ERADICATE SORREL.— We often see lime
recommended to eradicate sorrel ; alleging
as a reason, that as sorrel contains oxalic
acid, the soil must be sour ; and to remedy
this we must apply an alkali. That sorrel
contains oxalic acid is no better proof that
the land is sour than is the acidity of the
apple or rhubarb plant,for the same ground
that will bear sour apples will bear sweet
cnes—the two frequently growing on the
same tree. The vegetable acids are pro
duced in the organism of the plant, and not
in the land. True, the elements are gath
ered from the soil and air, but they do not
exist in the acid form which we find in the
plants. These elements when taken up by
different plants form in one, starch, anoth
er, sugar, tartaric acid, etc. To'apply,
then, an alkali to neutralize an acid that
does not exist in the soil is useless. Appli
cations of lime are useful to decompose veg
etable matter, and so warm up the land,and
quicken the growth of plants. Sorrell
spreads in the soil more like quack grass,
by means of its roots with numerous joints,
each of which form a plant. Unlike quack
grass, it is less tenacious of life, conse
quently more easily destroyed by cultiva
tion of other crops, and liberal supplies of
good barnyard manure well worked into
the soil. Manure gives food for the growth
of other plants, and when these occupy the
land the sorrel disappears. If the ground
be broken up iu July or August,and a crop
of rutabagas or buckwheat put in, and fol
lowed the next season with some hoed crop,
the sorrel will be pretty effectually snubbed
out.
TEMPERATURE IX BCTTER-MAKlNG.—Accord
ing to experiments made by Phode.the tem
perature of the cream affect—
1. The time required to make the butter;
the colder, the longer.
2. The quality of the butter ; the colder
the cream the greater the quantity.
3. Upon the quality of the butter—cold
cream producing the best.
Hence, although by using warm en am
there is a saving of time, there is a loss in
quantity and quality.
MANURING ORCIIRDS. — It is necessary, in
manuring orchards, to spread the manure
as far as the roots of the trees extend, and
the greatest benefit is derived from manure
where the roots are smallest—the ends of
them because they are found the most of
the fibrous, or feeding rootlets. The ma
nure should be incorporated with the earth,
over the root*, where its virtues will find
tMrhr way down to the roots in due time.

J- IN DENTISTRY.—J. S. SMITH, M. D., would re
spectfully inform the inhabitants of Brad! i d Connt v
that he is permanantly.located in Waverly, N.Y.. where
he has been in the practice ot his profession for the past
four years. He would say that from his long and suc
cessful practice of 25 years duration, he is familiar with
all the different styles of work done in any and all Den
tal establishments in city or country, and is better pre
pared than any other Dental operator in the vicinity to
do work the best adapted to the many and different
cases that present themselves oftentimes to the Dentist,
as he understands the art of making his own artificial
teeth, and has facilities for doing the same. To those
requiring under sets of teeth he would call attention to
his new kind ol work which consists of porcelain for
both plate and teeth, and forming a continuous gum. It
is more durable, more natural in appearance, and much
better adapted to the gum than any other kind ot work.
Those in need of the same are invited to call and exam
iut specimens. Teeth filled to last lor years and olten
t mes for life. ClUoroforiu, ether, and "Nitrous oxide"
administered with perfect safety, as over four hundred
patients within the last four years can testify.
I will be in Towanda from the 15th to 30th of every
month, at the 6ffiee of W .K. TAYLOR, (formerly oc
cupied by Dr. O. H. Woodruff.) Having made arrange
ments with Mr. Taylor, lam prepared to do all work in
the very best style, at his office.
