BRIVGma TT A COLT AS ITE SHOULD GO.
If you have ever seen a littlo colt
running after his mother in the
meadows, you know how very funny
he looks. Ho has long legs that seem
very crooked and uncertain, for they
point in all four directions at once. He
has no mane to speak of, and only a
stubby littlo taiL His coat is very
rough, for he has never been rubbed
down with a brush, and though yon
might look at him a great many times,
you would never believe that he could
grow into such a big, strong, hand
some horse as his owner tells you that
ho will become some day.
The most important day in a colt's
lifo is when ho first learns to carry u
a burden npon his back. A small lap
robo is strapped upon him, and ho is
then let loose to tear up and down the
fields and shake it off if he can. Then,
a doublo blanket is strapped across
hi in like a saddle, and after a while he
can bear the weight of the saddlo it
self, and then tho weight of a boy.
Shoeing him is very troublesome, for
he often refuses to walk after it, and
will roll around on Lis back holding
his feet np in the oir in tho most piti
ful way, ns if he did not know what to
do with his new shoes. Teaching him
to "back" is accomplished by hitching
a tenm to tho back of the wagon to
which Mr. Colt is harnessed. At tho
word "buck," some one starts up the i
team from behind and Mr. Colt is i
"bucked until ho learns tho use of
the word. His training is not very
pleasant for him. But if he is a bright,
intelligent horse, ho will learn all
there is to lecra within a year after he
has got his growth or by the time he is
three years old. He will then be very
frisky und inclined to be scared at
tritlut. But if ho in shown just what
they ore, he usually change his miud
aud behaves in a sensible way. Train
ing a colt is easier than training any
other animal, because the horse is nat
urally the most intelligent of all dumb
animals. New York Ledger.
IT AdHNO A Y015NO CALF TO PIUNK.
It is an old saying that "one man
may lead a huiwj to water, but twenty
cuunot make him drink." The sumo
might be applied with equal force to a
calf, siibhtitutiugmilk for water, writes
Alexander ullace. Gentleness is ono
of the moht important requisites on a
farm, in so fur ns the treatment of all
animals found there is concerned.
There are some farm hands who, ap
parently pofcuebiiiug less sense thau tho
animals themselves, try to accomplish
by brute force whut a little persuasion
would do ur more effectively. I have
seen this moro clearly exemplified in
teaching a calf to drink thau in any
thing else. The mehod of a hired man
1 have iu miud was to seize tho animal
iu both his arms, htraddle his body,
holding the head of the creature be
tween his legs as if it were in a vise,
nnd with two fingers thrust ns fnr
down the calf's tin-out ns he possibly
mid get tlu-in, uud the forefinger and
thumb pushed up its nostrils to their
'nil length, f udi avor, by nil the brute
itreiigth thut he possessed, to force
;ho animal's head into the luilk pail,
intil the perspiration was pouring
lowu his bronzed cheeks, and in this
vny try to compel the creature to
Irink. Naturally, uny animal would
.'ctent buch treatment. The culf will
not be coerced into doing anything
gainst its will. It often occurred to
me that, if the person adopting such
method would pause a little in his
work, and think how ho would like to
see a mother using her infant child in
like manner ; that is, if it refused to
drink out of nature's usubI course, and
she were to use all the animal force at
her command to make it drink, he
would be more gentle in his efforts.
A plan which I have successfully
used, and seen others nso with the
same effect, wan to get astride tho
animal, exercise a littlo persuasion to
bring tho ealf to the milk bucket,
then, taking hold of its head gently,
place two lingers in its mouth, turning
them slightly npwards, aud leaving an
open spaeo between them. If the calf
will not bend its head, draw tho pail
towards tho calf, let it taste tho milk,
and it will commence sucking. Now
gradually remove the fingers, Bnd the
young animal will continue drinking
for a moment, until it suddenly re
members that it ought to have some
thing in its month besides tho milk,
and will follow your hand until theso
improvised substitutes aro again se
cured. By and by it will got accus
tomed to sip without any extra help,
and the work is satisfactorily accom
plished. I hnvo had a young calf
driuk alone the first time I tried it, by
adopting the above method ; Bnd, to
show how the animal nature will be
come inured to anything, after tho
calf had commenced to help himself,
no sooner did he see mo como into tho
barn where he was, than he at once
placed himself in position between my
legs and sipped his daily rations,
Sometimes this was not agreeable,
when he would give me a Bright nudge,
with his head, indicating that he was
not getting his food fast enough.
Speaking of this reminder in the shape
of a gentle butt with his head, it seems
to me as though the mother cow often
times rebuked ' tho littlo one for this
conduct. I have heard her give a
peculiar cry when this was being con
tinned too strongly, as if to say "bo
hnve yourself," when it immediately
ceased.
As to the milk to be given to a suck
ing calf : For about a week after tho
animal had been taken from its
mother, I gave it new milk ; after that
I mixed littlo of this milk with about
two quarts of skimmed milk, which wo
brought back from the creamery, and
on this mixture had no difficulty in
raising the young stock np to the time
when no milk was necessary and grain
food was given American Agricul

FA11M AND GARDEN NOTES.
Breed only to pure bred sires.
Aluminum horse shoes are coming to
the fore.
Cabbage plants for lute planting
may be started iu the open air.
Prices for thoroughbred stock have
evidently fallen off several points.
Feed work horses oats, bran, hay
and other forage and not bo much
corn.
The culture of frnit may be simple
ami easy, but it must bo done thor
oughly. Just as well have two crops from
most of the garden. It helps to mnko
the garden pay.
Plant corn, peas, beans, as well as
radishes and lettuce, at intervals for a
succession of crops.
The harder and barer the surface
around a bearing plum tree the better
it is, as the tree needs but little culti
vation. Wherever the stock does not hold
the cion firmly the place should be
wrapped with cord covered with graft
ing vax.
Sprouts which start to grow on the
stock below the graft should be always
pinched off and be kept in check. If
this is not done it saps the vitality of
tne growing grafts.
Western fruit growers are irrigating
tneir orchards with tne niu of the
water-wheel. It is expected that fruit
growing on the dry lands along the
rivers will bo revolutionized by the
nso of the water-wheel.
A proper selection of food, prepared
in a proper manner, has much to do
with keeping fowls in the pink of con
dition, stimulating the egg organs to
greater activity, and sustaining the
strain on tho function of egg produo
tion.
Soma people like to help chickens
out of the shell when they hatch with
difficulty. It is not safe to do much in
this direction ; break the shell enough
for the chick to get his head out where
ho can breathe, und leave the rest to
nature.
Joseph Arch, the English labor lead'
er, looks for prosperity to farmers in
a reversion to old wavs farms to be
broken into small holdings, while farm'
era and their families give personal at
tention to the details which turn loss
into profit.
For the planter who looks after his
trees and cultivates them carefully
small tree will bear just as early and
provo as valuable as the largest. But
if the trees are to be planted in sod-
luud, without cultivation or attention,
big trees will stand the best chance of
liviug.
Chiekenr, when first hatched, need
no food for twenty-four hours and will
not sudor even for thirty-six hours
without it; moreover, there are often
some that hatch a day later than the
others. It is, therefore, the best way
to keep them on the nest or iu the iu
cubator for one day after the first oues
hutch.
Turkeys rua good farm property if
the ctoelc is vigorous uud the birds
haavy. Soino of us breed them so long
without changing tho male that they
become delicate and difficult to rear,
as well as of li;ht weight. Send away
and get u pair or trio of right good
birds this spring, and sell eggs or fall
birds to nil your neighbors. There is
profit iu it.

HOUSF-HOIiD HINTS.
Always broil beefsteak over a char
coal fire.
Never roll a glove. Smooth out the
fingers and lay them straight in a box
or drawer.
Canned fruit that has been left over
should be carefully watched at this
season of the year.
Silk handkerchiefs nnd ribbons
should be w ashed in salt and water and
ironed wet to obtain the best results.
All traces of mud can easily be re
moved from black clothing by rubbing
tho spots with a raw potato cut in
half.
A sack of the best halt standing
where there is a smell of fish or other
objectionable odor will absorb the
flavor.
Never wear a woolen gown in the
kitchen. It retains odors and smoko
aud soon becomes offensive as well as
shabby.
A poultice made of Indian meal,
covered with Young Hyson ten,
moistened with hot water and laid on
a burn will relieve the puin in five
minutes.
Molasses rubbed on grass stains on
white dresses or undergarments will
bring out the stains when the clothing
is washed. Soaking in sweet milk will
also remove grass stains.
There is nothing like hot water and
tho rubber bandage for a sprain. The
hot water soothes lacerated ligaments ;
the bandage prevents swelling. Jjiui
inctits are worse than useless.
For polishing furniture, stained
floors and picture frames, melt bees
wax, turpentine and sweet oil together
and rub it on with a piece of soft
cloth.
To make boots waterproof, boil one
quart of linseed oil with half a pound
of Venice turpentine. While the mix
ture! is still wurni, but not hot, paint
tno leulner until it will absorb no
more.
A blotter can be made that will ro
move ink spot:) from paper. Take
thick blotting paper and steep it eev
eral times in a solution of oxalic acid.
While the ink is moist apply the blot

moved.
To clean ostrich plumes dissolve four
ounces of white soap in four pinta of

Buttermilk has several summer uses.
It is a cooling beverage. It is an ex

Thn pritlnh Parliament has before it
(ho
nir a
more drastic method of dealing with drunk
ards than British law now permits. This
committee waa appointed under the .Salisbury

several eminent phyMcinus and the 8uwrln-
tenuent ol tno iirondmore t rlmlnnl Iniano
Asylum. ITnder an act passed in 1S79 thorn
Worn established soma retreats or reform
atories forthn treatment and oaro of drunk-
rds who choose to co to them voluntarily.
This committee, according to the Hprliv;lloid
llcpuhllean, finds that a considerable portion
of the drunkards who enter thrso reform
atories are cured, and that moro would lo If
they would remain longer t therefore, they
recommend thnt Parliament give magistrates
the power to send theaa dipsomaniacs to
these retreats for a period not exceeding two
years. This commitment may be made on
petition of tne relatives ot tho Inebriate or at
the discretion of the magistrate, nnd it sniv
els the drunkard to a rigorous discipline
and close confinement If necessary. A drunk

lect his own retreat, whether sentenced or
voluntarily going there, and aueh property
as he has would be liable for his and Ids fam

The poorer classes are to be provided for out
of the public treasury or In piiblie asylums.
The seml-crimlnal elasa of habitual drunk
ards, wltb whom tho police hnvo to deal, are
to be subject to an Indeterminate sentence,
whleb shall not be leas than a year, upon tne
third conviction tor drunkenness within

to other Interests : "Observe theso laws as

Syrup"
My niece, Emeline Haw-ley, was,
taken with spitting blood, and she
became very much alarmed, fearing
that dreaded disease, Consumption.
She tried nearly all kinds of medi
cine but nothing did her nny good.
Finally she took German Syrup and
she told 111c it did her more good
than anything she ever tried. It
stopped the blood, gave her strength
and ease, and a good appetite. I
had it from her own lips. Mrs.
