rnttealn Cattle alairrkly or Slewly.
There appears no room for ques
tioning the fact that an animal fatten
ed quickly makes finer eating than an
animal which has been fattened slow
ly, or which has remained fat for
sometime. The meat in such is sweet
er and juicier, but whether it posses
ses any more nutriment is not quite
so clear. There are many people who
Lave had the privilege of partaking
of the floBh of prize animals, which
had been maintained in high condi
tion for a long time, and they have
generally reported the flesh as hard
and tough; and probably they did
not judge it as harshly as "they would
have done had they purchased the
same "cut from the nearest butcher's
etalL"
Aside from the matter of quality,
there is a question of economy which
is well worth considering. An ani
mal requires a certain amount of food
daily to sustain life and supply heat
and waste of tissues. It is only the
excess or food over these require
ments of nature which goes to make
fat or increase flesh. A great deal
more food will be required to make
one hundred pounds increase in the
weight of an animal, if thirty days
arc taken for it, than if the feeding
operations are confined to twenty days
and eo on. There is where many
make a crave mistake. Animals in
course of preparation for the sham
bloa should not bo stinted in food.
Thev should lie fed on all thoy will
cat and assimilate properly ; and the
TvinrA ihpv will eat and properly as
similate in a given time, the more
profitable they will be for feeding pur
poses, other things being equal. The
moner in feeding is all made by
"forcing" animals to the utmost, when
ever their preparation for the snam
bles has been once undertaken. Live

The Pearn-Blew Potato.
When we stated 6ome weeks ago
that it was our deliberate opinion that
' we had gained but little in potatoes
since the advent of the Mercer and
Teach-Blow. we hardlv expected to
find that almost universal experi
ence coincided with our own. Vet
. we find from Maine to Missouri the
same cry comes. Let all potatoes go,
if they must, but save us the 1 each
Blow. The way in which some of
the newer kinds ret handled is a
warningto new beginners. The Amer
ican Jiural Home, of Rochester, for
instance, savs of the Peerless, "it
crows lanre and hollow, is good to
grow for feeding hogs, providing any
one will take the trouble to cook them
for this purpose." This we believe is
the variety of which it was reported
that "fifty dollars was refused for two
tubers," and now to have it refused
by hogs, unless cooked, is running
pretty low. The Jlonve says there is
nothing up that way which "quite
fills the place of the reach-Blow,"
much the same experience which we
find here.
The great failure of so many new
things to come up to public expecta
tion will result in good rather than
harm. There has really been very
little skill or intelligent labor directed
of late years to the production of new
varieties, notwithstanding all the talk
about the "product of "ears of exper
iments" and the "patent rights" which
ought to reward so much patient wait
ing. Nearly everything we have had
before us has been the selection from
one or two first seed sowings, hardly
waiting to sec whether the bud, of
promise would blossom to the hope ;
if not indeed been chance seedings
found with no labor or thought but
the openinjr of one's eves. We be
lieve we have no popular fruit or veg
etable but is capable of great improve
ment; and no doubt those who go in-
lo the search industriously will find
something which will well reward

Cows Going Dry. Many persons
complain of their cows going dry
sometimes four and five mouths lefore
calving time, just when butter brings
the best price, and the blame is laid
on the cows. The fact is the real
blame is with the owners themselves.
In the fall, when frosts come and pas
tures fail, and when warm feed is
needed in the mornings, and a comfor
table place at night, they are allowed
to shift for themselves, a falling off in
milk is the result, and the verdict is
that "the cow wants to go dry," and
so she is furloughcd. Now, this is the
fault of the owner and the result of
negligence. Cows aro like humans,
the creatures of babit, and follow a
course once adopted, especially a bad
one, with surprising pertinacity, and
going dry is one of them, We have
known cows to be milked to the very
day of calving, without detriment,
but this is the other extreme. Six
weeks is about the right time., and
milking should be kept op until that
time, be the quantity great or small.
The milk will undergo no change be
fore the last month and it is safe to
milk up to that time.' Gentle treat
ment, warm slops and feed in the
morning, and a comfortable place to
lie down in, will make them continue
to give milk.
Cover Yove Horse's Breast. A
correspondent of the Philadelphia
Evening Star makes the following
sensible remarks, which we copy as
being particularly pertinent at this
juncture :
I am surprised that no one has
called attention to the want of pro
tection to the most important part of
the horse the breast l ou will see
horses on the street with covering on
their back and breast exposed. Every
one who owns a horse should be aware
that the lungs and throat of this ani
mal requires as much protection in
this climate as the breast of a man.
When wo breast the cutting easter
ly winds, or the cold clear wind of
the west, wc, as rational beings, cov
er well the breast, protectingthemost
important organ of the body the
lung. .
Let refy one who owns a horse
have an apron made to cemc from
the collar to near the knees, and not
sweat one part of the body that can
nearly protect itself, to the expense
of the all-important part, the breast

For many a month in the year the
table of many an industrious country
home has rarely any other vegetable
than potatoes. Some have tomatoes
for a few months, corn for a few weeks,
and now and then there may be a dish
of Lima beans. We say nothing of
the cabbage in some places, or a few
, other kinds in some places, but as a
general thing good vegetables are not
the particular attractions of a farmer's
table. When we come to meat, prep
arations, pies, puddings, sauces, and
all such knick-knacks, the farmers'
girls are not behind the rest ot the
world.
uut it is not their fault If it was
unreasonable to expect the Israelites
to make Lrick without straw, it is a
worse case bere. If the head of the
household do not raise the vegeta
bles, how shall the girls cook thera
and that they do not raise them is a
general complaint and lamentable
fact Even when they arc brought 10
feel that the women will havo vege
tables, they go to work gru lgingly.
They must "get the corn-ground
ready" "put in the oats," or some
thing or another, ana can t anora ine
time to be plowing up the truck patch,
or digging up the garden. But the
power behind the throne" insists on
it ; a little manure is dragged on to
some out-of-the-way piece of the land,
the soil scratched over with the plow,
and then with the harrow, and then
the women or boys must get along as
best they can.
Now, this is not the way the thing
is always done ; but our readers will
bear witness to the fact that they have
none of them to go far to find the
picture we have drawn. Now, most
men like good vegetables, preferring
some kinds to others of course, and
the indifference can only be through
supposing it costs more to raise them
properly than it docs.
One of the mistakes of vegetable
growing for one's own personal use is
to grow more than is required. Too
much ground is taken up. Too much
labor then has to be given in propor
tion to the desired results. Vegeta
bles as a rule require a much richer
soil than the average of farm-crops ;
but when once they have a deep rich
soil, it is wonderful how many a very
small piece of ground will produce.
In this little place of ours, German
town, are a very large number of
small houses owned by workingmen
and mechanics, many of whom by the
agency of the building societies, so
popular here, become their own land
lords. The lots may not be more
than forty or fifty feet front, by a hun
dred feet deep ; vet many of these
men get a quantity of vegetables from
these lots, besides the space thebuild-
lnirs occupy, that would astonish our
country friends. And all this, too,
without more labor than a little time
before or after daily work affords.
But they make the ground rich and
deep ; and this makes it light, so that
the spade or fork works easily in it,
and thus they get without much care
the good results we 6ee. There is no
reason why the country vegetable
garden should not be as good as these,
Indeed, it ought to be better, as things
to work it properly arc better to hand
We hope that those who up to this
time have had but poor garden in
conveniences, will not allow the com
ing season to pass without improving
them ; and those who up to this time
have been worrying along with a
miserable "truck patch," or without
any kind of garden at all, will resolve
to do better in future. e know
they will thank the Telegraph some
time for thus again spurring them on

The Better Ednratioa of Farmer.
We are apt to take too much of a
dollar-and-ccnt view of the question
of agricultural education In so
many years, a young man could cam
so much money ; will it pay him to
give this up in order that he may get
an education which will enable him
in life to make more money than he
could without it ? Will any educa
tion that could be gained, at schools
make a better money-getter of a bov
than would the same amount of time
and attention given to learning the
practical operations of the farm ?
ltbont stopping to answer these
propositions which arc foreign to our
purpose we desire to call attention
to other considerations that must have
weight with all thoughtful persons.
The greatest prosperity of farmers, as
a class and individually, must come
from causes which will advance farm
ing as an occupation. No permanent
and satisfactory prosperity can at
tend any calling which is not held
in good repute, and no calling in these
modern days can be held in good re
pute which is not represented by at
least a fair proportion of men of cdu
cation and intelligence. In the so
called "professions," in mechanics,
and in trade, the tendency is toward
better and better education and a
more and more cultivated intelligence,
and the degree of respect in which
they are severcally held is in all cases
proportionate to the intelligence of its
representative men.
In the future allotment of honor and
influence, and consequently of pros
perity, that calling will take the lead
whose representative men are the
most distinguished for education and
cultivation, and that will fall to the
rear in which there has been the least
progress in these respects. The road
of the future is an ascending one, and
progress over it is to be secured much
more by the aid of mind than by the
aid of matter. Those who take and
keep the lead in the race will do so
because of their brains rather than
their bodies, and the leadership will
imply control over those who are be
hind (and therefore beneath) thera
How far their rule will be merciful
will depend on conditions which we
cannot now foresee, but that they
will rule is as certain as that mind
has always ruled over brute force. If
farmers can take the lead, farnrinff
will be a favored and fortunate occupa
tion. If they must fall to the rear,
it will be a degraded and an unfor
tunate one. Whether it is ono or the
other, depends on the extent to which
farmers are educated and enabled to
stand a fair chance in the "struggle
for the lead," and our successors will
be the lords of the land or a down
trodden peasantry, according as they
are educated or not We assume, of
course, that prosperity and intelligence
wiil go hand in hand, and that as wc
gain in education we shall gain in
wealth. At tho same time, wc be
wcalth. At the same time, wc be
lieve that the best chance for the fu
ture of our craft lies in the ability of
its representatives to take a high stand
for education and intelligence. Be
lieving this, we long for the better
general education of farmers ; not of
those of the farmer 8 sons who are
destined for other occupations, but es
pecially for those who are to stay on
the farm. Let as bring better train
ed brains to the performance of our
work, and sbed the light of cultiva
tion and refinement over our hearth
stones, and wc may confidently look
for a success which mere wealth could
not secure. .

The benefit .which fowls derive
from charcoal is, I believe, acknowl
edged. The method of putting it be
fore them is, however not well under
stood. Pounded charcoal is not in
the shape in which fowls usually find
their food, and consequently is not
very enticing to them.
1 have found that corn burnt on
the cob, and the refuse which con
sists almost entirely of the grains re
duced to charcoal, and still retaining
their perfect shape placed , before
tbem, is greedily eaten by them, with
a marked improvement in their health,
as is shown by the brighter color of
their combs, and their sooner produc
ing a greater average of eggs to the
flock than before. S. Rvfus Mason,

Origin, of the Hanes of N tales.
There is much that is interesting in
the study of the origin of the names
of the States of the Union, as they arc
derived from a variety of sources.

Prompt Change of Mind la a Ticket
Ac-eat.
A few days ago a tall, rough-looking
mountaineer entered the Union
Railroad ticket office at Denver, and,
through mistake, purchased a ticket
for New York via tho Kansas Pa
cific line, when he wanted to go over
the Union PaciGc. He did not dis
cover the fact until after the ticket
had been paid for, and on asking the
agent to change it the latter refused
to do so.
"You won't change this ticket,
then, won't you f "
"No sir," replied the agent ; "you
have your ticket and I have the mon
ey for it, and if you want a ticket
over the other route you will have to
buy it"
Very quietly the stranger twisted
his ticket into a small roll ; very se
renely he drew from under his right
coat-tail a six-shooter, about the di
mensions of a mountain howitzer;
cooly and deliberately he stuck the
twisted ticket into the muzzle of his
six-shooter, and sticking the ugly
looking thing through the little
square window of the ticket office,
and almost in the agent's face, and
speaking in a tone that left no doubt
of his determination, said :
' "Stranger, thar's that ticket; take
it yourself and change it, or I'll blow
it clean through you."
The ticket was changed immedi
ately, and without any word from
the agent, and the mountaineer
walked away saying : "I just thought
I could induce him to change his
mind a lectlc."
Five Millions for Tots. A New
i or correspondent says : I he sea
sons for toys is marked by an indiffer
ence to expense which might astonish
most of our economists. . It has been
estimated that the value of these ar
ticles sold during the past year in this
city is not less than five millions of
dollars a sura equal to the entire in
come of Washington's Administra
tion. Large quantities of toys are
manufactured here, and one concern
employs a hundred men on tin works,
such as toy horse railroad cars,
engins, etc. An immense importation
is also carried on from factories in
London, Birmingham, Paris and
Dresden. Santa Claus will have no
difficulty in making up his annual
stock, and he can select out of an
immense variety. The speciality of
dolls is one or interesting character.
They are now got up like a modern
bride, with a neat trunk and variety
of dresses dignified with the name of
trousseau. These dolls are worth
one dollar and a half apiece, but yon
can get at the same house, (Tiffany)
some very nice ones for nine dollars.

Our artists were surprised to find
negroes so generally employed as
road-builders. They have proved in
fact excellent laborers, both as track
makers, and for mining, blasting, and
all the other work of railroad build
ing. They lived in shanties along
the road, wherever their work lay ;
and as is usual with the negroes, they
wore musical, as well as orderly and
sober. Ragged, too, they were, to tho
last degree, until one wondered where
so crreat a -multitude of rags came
from ; and whether it had ever occur
red to one of these jolly fat fellows to
buy himself a new 6uit of clothes.
They live well, rather despising corn
bred, and using a good deal of canned
fruits and vegetables ; and the sausage
is to them a savory dish.
But few of them had learned to
read though pome had learned a
tradn and were proud of it We
heard it often remarked that they
would never again live in cities, but
onnuire farms for themselves. No
doubt their experience on tho road,
far away from home, has increased
their intelligence, and their capacity
to help themselves. They save
money the contractors reported this
very generally ; they have not the
habit of drinking whisky ; and on the
work itself, as they took their chance
with the while workmen, so they
were treated with absolute equality,
not the slightest bullying being al
lowed or attempted. Indeed, wher
ever there is real genuine hard work to
be done by men, they soon cease to
regard color or other distinctions, and
respect each other according to the
ability each manifests. This is true
everywhere, and was true of course
here. '
The contractors had but one com
plaint to make that tho colored men
would go "home" ior Christmas.
Home. te them, meant Eastern Vir
ginia, and we were told that many of
them returned joyfully to the old
plantations where formerly they were
slaves, and where, as more than one
former master told us, they are still
made welcome on holidays. Scrib-

An Awful Lnesomb Mas in
California. In the shanty, which,
in California's early days did duty as
office for the banking, postal and ex
press of Wells, Fargo & Co., in Marys-
ville, there sat, one taturuay evening,
a misanthropic and dejected lookin
individual, whose long and unkept
hair and beard, cowhide boots and
rough dress bespoke the miner. For
over an hour he sat there the picture
of despair, with not a word or a look
from any one present. Miners came,
left their "dust," took their coin in re
turn, and exchanged greetings with
all present, save the one morose man
whose apathy nothing it scemed.could
disturb. Finally there entered
young miner with a booming face,
who, after completing his business at
the counter, turned to the gent in
charge and remarked that on the pre-
vious Saturday he had some dealings
with the bank, and thought that some
mistake had been made in his ac
count
"Gncaa not." said the ajrent. "Our
cash was all rifflit and I reckon we
keep our books pretty straight"
But upou the request of tho miner
that the account should be examined,
the account was looked at, and it was
found that through a clerical error.the
miner had been paid just $50 loo
much.
"That's just what I make it" said
the latter; "and here's your money.'
With this ho threw down the gold,
and received the thanks of the agent
While this conversation was in
progress, the misanthrophicmiuer had
preserved his look of utter Jndiffor-
ence ; but, when ho 6aw the money
actually returned, his face brightened
up, he rose slowly, walked toward
the honest miner with slow and
solemn step, and said :
"loung man, don't you feel awlui
lonesome in this country.

Salt river, where it debouches into
the Ohio river, is not more than fifty
or sixty yards in breadth, but very
deep, it is never fordablc in the driest
season ; and being navigable for four
teen miles above its mouth, had not
been bridged at this point We des
cended its steep and difficult banks,
embarked our carriage upon a flat
ferry boat and were conveyed across.
The view looking up the river was
very beautiful. Tall elms and syca
mores clothed the banks, dropping
their boughs almost to the water, and
forming a 'vista of foliage through
which the stream curved out of sight
between wooded hills. I longed to be
rowed np it While on the spot I
took oecasion to inquire the derivation
of the slang political phrase "Rowed
up Salt River," and succeeded in dis
covering it Formerly there were ex
tensive salt-works on the river, a short
distance from its mouth. The labor
ers employed in them were a set of
athletic belligerent fellows, who soon
became noted far and wide for their
achievements in the pugilistic line.
Hence it became a common thing
among the boatmen on tbo Ohio,
when one or their number was re
fractory, to say to him, "We'll row
yon up Salt River" where, of course,
the bnlly salt men would have the
handling of him. By a natural figure
of speech the expression was applied
to political candidates, first, we be
lieve, in the Presidential campaign of
1840. liayard Taylor.
A Conscientious Deacon. Many
years ago a church was built in
Brandon, and the deacon was employ
ed to do some part of the work
building the pulpit, if I remember
He wanted a hundred and fifty dol
lars, while the committee wished it
done for a hundred. At last it was
settled between him and the chairman
a shrewd lawyer and something of a
wag, that a hundred dollars should be
the price ; but if, on the completion of
the job, the deacon said ho bad "an
all fircd hard bargain," he should be
paid twenty-five dollars more.
The good deacon found that he had
lost by the job, and claimed the addi
tional five and twenty dollars.
"Well, deacon," asked the lawyer,
"can you honestly say you have had
an all fired hard bargain ?" '
"Yes, I havo had aa awful hard
bargain."
"But can you say you have had an
ail-fired hard bargain ?"
"Yes, it was a tremendous hard
bargain."
"But that is not according to agree
ment Will you say you have had an
all fired bard bargain f " ; :
"No, 'squire, I can't say that
That would be swearin,' and I won't
swear for any money ; but it was a
roost outrageous hard bargain."
"Then I don't see, Deacon Spooncr,
how we can, under the agreement,
pap you the twenty-five dollars."
The deacon left, preferring to lose
the money rather than violate his
conscience by saying "all fired."
But the upshot was, that after the
lawyer had enjoyed the telliner of the
joke for a few days, he paid the sum.
o the rood deacon saved his con
science and did not lose the money.

by extensive derangements of the stomach and liver, and
other abdominal viscera. There are alvrays more or less
obstructions of the liver, a weakness and irritable state
of the stomach, and great torpor of the bowels, being
closed up with vitiated accumulations. In their treat
ment, a purgative, exerting a powerful influence apoa
these various organs, is essentially necessary. There is
r.n cathartic for the purpose equal to Da. J. Walksr's

loaded, at the same time stimulating the secretions of
the liver, and generally restoring tlie healthy functions
