ArrLB TREES FOR LAW?? 3.
There really is no handsomer tree
in the world than on apple tree, con
sidering flowers, fruit and general
homeliness. (Queer that we call a
disagreeable thing homely.) Hut our
apple trees are not grown right to
make them snitablo for ornamenta
tion. Try heading them in when
young, and let them branch as low as
two feet from tho ground. You will
have to thin a little to let the sun in,
when the tree will give you a great
globe of good fruit. But what a vis
ion in flower ; nothing can be finer.
I, of course, do not recommend this
plan for orchards ; but for large lawns
it is very cflcctive. Still easier is it
to grow ronndhcaded dwarf apple
trees. Theso should be headed very
low, and make minature trees about
ten feet in diameter. Some of tho
best trees for round heads are Astra
chan, Jonathan, Swaar, Fameuso.
If it is desired to get much good fruit
from such trees the apples should be
thinned sharply. New York Inde
pendent. rBEVEvnsa TnE growth op hobnb.
There is no doubt that tho absence
of horns from all except thorough
bred cattle is very desirable. From
adult animals they can be removed by
the use of the saw or some of the clip
pers made especially for the purpose.
While these methods are not injuri
ous it is not denied that they are very
painful, Freventing their growth is
the most humane method as well as
the one most easily applied. When
the calf is a few days old, clip off the
hair over the horn button. Eub this
button with a stick of caustio potash
the end of which has been moistened
with water. Continue nntil the em
bryonic, horn begins to appear in
flamed. It will dry up in a few days
and no scar be left. Do not allow a
particle of the caustio to touch any
thcr portion of the skin, as it burns
intensely, but is not so painful on the
horn buttons, though it may cause
the calf to be dumpish for a few
days. Wrap paper about the stick of
caustio to protect the fingers. A
number of prepared applications are
on the market, most of which are
effective, but the caustio potash in
sticks can be had at any drug store.
The advisability of dehorning need
not be argued. All who have tried it
indorse the practice. Attend to it
now when the calves are being
dropped. This method of prevent
ing horn growth has proven effective
in thousands of cases. American Ag
riculturist BLACK LEO OR MURRAIN IN CATTLE.
"Black quarter," "bloody murrain,"
"black leg" and malignant anthrax
are all one and the same disease, but
it sometimes assumes different forms,
or is more virulent is some seasons
than others, hence receives different
local names. There is usually swell
ing of the shoulder, quarter, neck,
breast or side, but sometimes only
one limb will appear to be affected,
the animal being but slightly stiff and
lame at first, then a swelling will ap
pear, the skin become hard, cracking
open, and yellow or bloody matter is
suing therefrom. This disease usually
appears among well fed and thriving
6tock, attacking the youngest and fat
test animals, but it runs its course so
quickly that there is "little time or an
opportunity to attempt the use of
remedies, even if any of much value
were known, which, 'unfortunately,
is not the case. Alter the disease runs
for a while in a herd, it sometimes as
sumes a milder form, and then reme
dies may be used with fair success.
These consist mainly of medicines that
will clear out the bowels and eliminate
the poisons, such as sulphate of Eoda,
tortrits of potasss, common salt, and
turpentine and local applications to
the swelled parts, freely bathing in
spirits of camphor, oil of turpentine
or weuk lotions made of diluted car
bolic acid. Dr. James Low recom
mends giviug by the mouth nitro
tnuriutic, sixty drops; bicromato of
potussa, three grains, and chlorate of
potassa, two drachms, twice daily, and
two or three drachms of a saturated
solution of sulphate of nuiuia. iodido
ot potassium and bisulphute of soda
injected at equal intervals beneath
the skin. We do not think tho cause
of the disease is known, but we do
know that it is frequently very de
structive to cuttle, aud, aii we havo
said before, those given the best of

things, see thut your stock is given all

In tho first place, build the poultiy
house where cold winds of winter wiil
not strike it. Helect the sunniest
plr.ee possible, hih and dry, w here
ban's and othi r outbuildings will pro
tect it. Have it us convenient as
practicable to the dwelling, fur fowls
need more attention thau uny kind of
stock during bud Weather, especially
iu winter: They thtu need a warm
bouti fcnr.d fcJ uud jileMy cf imh
In order to keep tho. bo.uso warm
batten every crack and bank up
about the bottom. For banking, drive
stakes about eight inches from the
ontsido of the wall. Flaoe old boards
inside these. Some distanco from tho
stakss dig a trench and throw the
earth between the boards and the
walls nntil a solid bank of soil two
feet high and eight inches thick is
formed all around tho chicken house
except at tho door. This will keep
the floor wnrrn and prevent all
draughts. This is an important item,
as tho fowls are on tho floor, most of
tho time during tho doy.
Every farmer should have at least
twenty-five chiokens twenty-four
bens and a rooster. For those a
house 10x14 feet and seven feet high
under the eaves is sufficient for both
slimmer and winter. For the frame
use 2x1 scantling; cover theso on the
outside with matched board or ordi
nary smooth boards aud battens. For
tho roof use good shingles. All the
lumber should be smooth on both
sides. You can tlion paint tho out
side of the house and whitewash the
inside.
Some professionals heat their poul
try houses with a stove during the
coldest days, but this is expensive and
requires careful manipulation. If the
fire gtts low or goes out the fowls are
apt to tako cold and have tho roup. If
the climato is very cold shoathe tho
iusido of the house and pack the space
between the outer and inner walls
with sawdust. Hero tho hardier
breeds, enoh as Flymouth Books, Wy
andottos, Brahmas, etc., will do well
without artifloial heat. They will lay
all winter. Where the thermometer
soldom goes lower than eight or ten
degrees below zero a lining of turrod
paper is tisually sufficient. Never
choose a tender, large-combed variety
of chickens if you live in a cold cli
mate. Frovido largo windows for the south
side of tho house. For twenty-five
fowls place three roost poles across
one end. Let them rest on a strip of
board nailed to the wall two feet from
the floor. A piece of one-inch board
two inches wide with rounded edges
will answer. Flace tho first one foot
from the wall and the other vwo 1
feet apart. These can be removod
when the house is being cleaned.
Six nosts ten inches square, two fcot
from the floor and on the end opposite
tho roosts, will provide sufficient room
for laying. Never place them or the
floor of the house. Have a solid par
tition between each, so that the hons
cannot fight. Line with soft straw,
never hay. Clean out four times a
year and burn the old materia!. Nests
used for setting hens must be cleaned
before putting in the eggs and after
the chickens are hatoheX It is a good
plan to sprinkle a little sulphur in the
bottom of each nest as there is where
lice usually start.
Clean out from nndcr the roosts at
least once a week, sweepiug the whole
house clean. A little land plaster
sprinkled about prevents bad odors,
adds to the value of the manure and
keeps the floor from rotting. The
floor shonld be six inches above tho
giound, made of dressed and matched
lumber. Tho ground beneath it must
bo well drained so no water will stand
near the house. Make a box 3x4 foet
and one foot high with sides eloping
outward. Into this put about throo
inches of fine gravel. This will 'take
the place of oyster shells and is much
better for tho fowls. A flock ofchick
ens treated as directed above will be a
source of pleasure and one of the most
profitable kinds of live stock, New
York Agriculturist.

if you haven't cleaned out your

Iu her farewell address in New York on
"Tho New English Woman," Lvly 11 inry
Somerset drew a striking picture of the deg
radation caused nmng the women In Eng
lish cities by tho habit of strong drink. It is
the practice of women to frequent the drink
show in England, as they do uot iu America,
a practice which adds greatly to the demor
alizing results of the drink traffic. It Is not
nn uncommon sight, said Lady 8 imi-rsot, to
see a public bar room in London half filled
with women of the oorer class, some with
babies in their arms, whose eritw are hushed
with the stupefying dregs of the heer mugs
and tumblers of gin. The employment of
young girls as barmaids was spoken'of as an
other agency of corruption and ruin in con
nection with the lii;uor business in England.
It was her personal obsorvat ion of such scenes
aud practices a- these, said Lady Henry Som
erset, that he.d made her whiit some were
pleased to call a temperance "fauatic.'' If a
determination to do what laid In her power
to overcome thi-so ng'ncios of evil which
were bringing such a fearful burd-n of woo
and misery iii,iu tha homes of England,
mado her a "fanatic," she glories in tho
title.

is pretty well ou iu years, und not
very fond of children, steppod iu to
seo a married sister tho other day, and
found her trying to amuso her little
boy, about five years of ago. Not
long after ho arrived, she Btcpped out
of the room to attend to some house
bold matter or otbor, loiviug him
alone with the child. Tho latter eyed
him dubiously for some minutes.
lie was a spoiled child if ever there
was ono, and had no idea of making
Crotnisouous acquaintances. The
aohelor triod to make tho little one
laugh, but all be got for his antics was
a lour look. Final y, without any
warning, the child burst out crying.
Here was a quandary, to be sure, lie
didn't dare to pick the boy up an I
soothe him. Ilia attempts lu the ver
bal line were dismal failures.
What should ho do? Finally a
thought struck him. Ho looked at
the crying youngster, and the crying
youDgster looked at him through his
tears, lie was evidently much pleased
with the impression he was making.
"Cry louder," said he. The ohild
obeyed. "Louder yet," nrged tho
bachelor. A yell went up that would
have dono credit to an Indian. "Cry
louder still," insisted the man, aud
the boy did his best to obey.
"Louder," fairly howled his uncle.
"Iwou't," snapped the iufaut, and he
shut his mouth with a click, and was
quiet for the rest ot the day. Now

Con Tails Ara To9 Short.
According to tho hido dealer, down
iu New York's leather district, known
as tho "Swamp," nature did not giro
oattlo tails of stiflleient length, and
the shortcoming in tails is brought
forcibly to tho dealer's mind iu tho
spring of the year when rvery raw hide
iu stock hns to be looked over for
holes. And these worm hole are
always looatod in a spot about a foot
sqnaro in the center of the hide, whero
cattle cannot wag their tails. The
holes are from the fly grubs, whicU
begiu to hatcli about this time, Iu
passing by the "Swamp" wsrehousos
nowadays, two men armed with spades
will bo seen to tako a hide, spread it
ou the floor, skiu side tip, and scrape
and carefully inspect a small spot iu
the center of it. If- any holes aro
found teu per cent, of the value of tho
hido iskuoukod out of it, and it is put iu
a separate pilo. And so every stored
hide iu the building is hhnled over,
all because tho "critter's" tail could
not reach tho Hies. New York Advertiser.
