BROKEN HORN.—If the h< rn is broken close to the skull, the broken base should be sawn off smoothly, seared over with a hot iron, aud a patch of cloth satuwt ed in tar should tie fastened over the bare bellow. Another similar patch should he laid over that, and so on until it in quite certain that the air is perfect ly excluded. The admission of air would be very painful to the cow. It the pith of the horn is left whole, it should be wrapped in tarred doth until a new coating of horn ha* grown over it or the sensitiveness has decreased. Iu aorae cases a new growth soon take* place. We have an idea that if rubbing posts were place.! in the yard there would be fewer broken lionia. Cattle comment?* by rubbing each other's horn? together. proceed then to piny, then get to fighting, and the result is broken horn or scored rib*. OAT CHAFF FOR FEET.—A year or two ago we were, by accident, led to feed acme oat chaff to a few head of ruilking eow*. and were agreeably surprised to find that they suddenly came up consid erably in their milk. 'The chaff was dis continued for a d.\T or two, when the cows feD off to their former quantity; hat on feeding the chaff again, the fiow again increased. Since then the v-ihie of oat chaff as a milk-producer has been satisfactorily pro red by us. This wonld then make it advisable that when oats are threshed the chaff should be saved for feed It mv be fed in the place of cot ebafl, with the usual wetting, salt ing. and mixing of the regular allowance of meat In years when hay ia as scarce aa in the present, not only the chaff may be fed, but the oat straw should he care folly saved for fodder.

SHEET TICKS.— If the lamb* are badly infested with tick* thev will he stunted in growth, reduced in flesh, and seriously weakened at a critical time when thev need to be in the beat condition. If the lamb have been already dipped it wonld be well to inspect them closely, and with a small pair of scissors nip every tick that raav have escaped destruction ; that ia, if they are only few in number. If it should be found that they are still numerous, another dipping should be administered immediately, as it wow'd not be a safe operation during cold weather. We repeat the directions for making the dip given some months asro. vix. :Ftve pounds of cheap plug tobacco, broken np ind boiled in two pnilfuls of water, with thirty gallons added, will make a dip sufficient for 100 lambs or 50 sheep. After dipping keep dry for a day or two. If fowls are permitted access to the sheep-yards they will eagerly search for ticks and pick them ont of the wool, but we wonld retner trust to the more effectual process of dipping. ADULTERATION OF BUTTER —The Sri ew'ifCc American states that a great deal of batter is daily sold in the citv of New York, whieh is adulterated with a snb stance made from cotton-see,! oiL It is creditable to the fanners, that they are not open to the charge of adulterating their produce ; y t they suffer from the dishonest competition of dealers who make up and sell these fraudulent com pounds, and by so doing affect unfavor ably, not only the sale, hut the char acter of the genuine article. As a mat ter of curiosity, we describe an artificial component which waa manufactured in Paris to supply the want of real butter during the late siege of that city. The refnse materials left after the manufac ture of atearine from fatty animal mat ters, such as tallow, etc., consisting of an oily paste, composed of oldne and margarine, were washed in water acidu lated with muriatic acid for the purpose of bleaching it. It waa then subjected to the action of a chemical solution for a penod of three hours, during which it was made to acquire the taste and color of butter. This substance, manufactured without any assistance from the cows, was considered an excellent substitute for butter, and was readily accepted in the place of it by the people, who con sidered it much superior to any other artificial product of thia description. SURFACE MANTIUNG.— Now that the harvest is gathered and hnawd, the next subject in order is that of tnannre—how to make the most of the sources of supply at hand, and how to dispose of the man ure when procured. The supply of home-made manure will never become adequate to our needs, and it is only by means of .he greatest cirefulness and diligence that sufficient can lie gathered together to keep life in our soil. • ' Feed your soil when it is huugry" any* an old proverb, in which case the proverb is not "concentrated wisdom" at all, nor indeed wisdom of any kind. Soil should never be allowed to become bungrv. Before this can occur d tmage is being done, to repair which will need some manure to be expended, leaving le-s for present needs. With all our economy we shall never have manure sufficient to supply our wants. It shonld therefore be a matter of study how to apply who! we have or con procure, that it may do moet good. By spreading on the surface we get not only the strength and fertility of the manure, but whatever benefit occurs from protecting or mulc'iiug the soil Bare straw nndecomposed b* been found to exert a good influence by the mere covering it h i* afforded, and heavy crops which afford dense shade, as peas, clover, or buckwheat, are reckoned to benefit this soil simply from this sha ding, Then the spr< ailing of manure on the surface to remain there during the time the laud is Iving idle between crops will have this effect, which will lie addi tional to the direct manurinl lieneftts accruing. Gardeners follow this system, and farmer* could not follow a better lead than that of the gardener*. The more neailythe condition of the farm approaches that of the garden, the necrer approach will lie made in size and value of the crops, and in nothing can we learn mora than in their system of manuring. PREPARING AND PLANTING AN ORCHARD. —ln reference to the preparation of the ground for and the planting of an orch ard, the Gardener't Month'y offer* the following suggestion s : "We feci that the advice constantly given to subsoil, and underdrain, and manure, to the ex- i tent of hundreds of dollars per acre, is too costly to follow, and of little use after it is taken. If we were going to prepare ; a piece of ground for an orchard, we should manure it heavily and put in a crop of potatoes ; then in October man ure ogam lightly, and put in rye. On this, in April, we should sow red clover. ] The rye off. we should then consider iti i . ready to plant trees. For apples, pear*, i plums, or cherries, we should mark out i the rows tea feet apart, and for the trees i ten feet from each other. This will be 3 twice as thick as they will be required i when fully grown, but they grow much 1 better when thick together; and they i will bear more than enough fruit to nay ' for the room they occupy, liefore the time comes to out every other one a may. We say the rows ton feet smart, but every fourth row should be twelve feet, to af ford room to get between the blocks with a cart " Plant as early in Oetotier aa poaaible. i bnt it can lie continued until the ajv preach of frost. To plaut, a hole can be dug in the stubble just large enough to hold the roots without crantpinir them. We should tread in the soil, and trim iu the head very sovorvly. The next spring we should just break the crust formed by the winter rains about the tree, and tban leave every tiling to grow as it might- The clover will lie ready to cut in Juue or July. The twelve feet rows may lie done by machine, the rest by hand. Hay enough will lie made to pay for ail the labor fei one year and a little more. After the hay has been hauled off, bring back some rich earth of any kind, and spread a Unit a quarter or a naif an inch thick over the surface of the ground dis turbed in making the hole. This will keep the grass from growing very strong just over the roots. Keep on this way utiunaliy, everv two or three veais giviug the w hole snrtuce of the orchard a top dressing, for the sake of the grass, uud it will lie found to tie the most profitable way of making the orchard ground jay for itaelf, until the fruit crops eome in, that one can adopt. The trees also will be model* of health and vigor, aud when they will commence to bear, will do so regularly and abundantly. " The dwarf trees we would plant ou the same system, but six instead of ten feet apart. ' Few soils are too rf for fruit trees, Onlv in wet anils plant ON the surface, aud throw up the earth over them from between, ao as to make a ditch or furrow to carry away the surface water. On the plan of anuual surface dressings which we have outlined, the feeding roots will thus always keep above the level of standing water; and when they can do this, it will not hurt the trees, though the hrjt roota are immersed in water for half the year." Sammary *f Jtew*. SEVERAL conflicts have taken place be twecn the French citizens aud the Ger man garrison of Dijon. Tnm National Commercial Convention at Baltimore adjourned to meet on the thiol Monday of November, 1872, at St. Louis, Ma WILLIAM PMTCHARD, colored, was hanged at Towsoatown, Md., for com mitting a rune on a German girl named Mary Sendel, in Auguat, 1870. Tux census returns report that the amount of laud under cultivation in Pennsylvania is 11,515.965 acres, and the total value of land $1,043,181,582. AT least two montha will eiapae before t! Court of Arbitratora of the Alabama claims will meet at Genera. The cause of this unexpected delay is that the Brazilian member of the court has not yet been appointed. HOME idea of the amount of American travel in Enn pe can be formed when we learn that for the year ending June 30 last, 81,858 uasstn'gcra left this country for the Olu Wurld. The number of Americans abroad who came home dar ing the quarter euding at the same time was 15,340. LATE advices from Indian Territory report serious depredations by the Kio vras in the vicinity of Fort Sill. Seve ral men have recently been killed and scalped within a few miles of that fort. | Two herders were shot a few day* ago within sight of the fort, aud their bod ies mutilated beyond recognition. Failed States Fxpendltnre*. The Second Controller of the Treas ury has just completed his annual report for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1871, j and has submitted the same to the Sec i retary of the Treasury. From it the following facts and statistics have been taken: The total account of expenditures of the War and Navy Departments, and the Indian and Pension Office*, as settled and adjusted at the Treasury Depart ment during the above period, amount to $431,846,120. This sum embraces the accounts of the disbursing officers j of the War and Navy Departments, aud the Indiau and Pensiou offices, in part for war expenditures of the Rebellion as well as those incurred siuce ; war claim* for bonnty and prize money, claims of States for war expenses, anil of private persons for property used and impressed or lost in the military service of the United States. The above accounts of expenditures are, with the vouchers, examined by the Second, Third and Fourth Auditors of the Treasury, who have by law primary jurisdiction in their settlement. When examined by audi tors, and balances certified, all of these accounts, with vouchers and certificates are reported bv them at once to the r*-ewud Controller of the Treasury for his decision. This officer causes a re vision of each settlement thus reported to lie made, and a certified balance sent to the Secretary of the Department in which the expenditure baa been incur red. During the fiscal year the amounts of settlement thus far "acted upon and adjusted are as follows : From the Sec ond Auditor, 8198,446,896 ; Third Audi tor, $205,953,053 ; Fourth Auditor, $27,- 446,171. A Frightful Affair. At Paoli, Orange connty, Ind., Prof. Wilbur made arrangements for a balloon ascension. He was to be accompanied Iby George H. Knapp. As they were I about getting into the balloon the cords gave way, and they made a spring for | the car, but only succeeded in grasping tbe ropes. As the balloon rose Knapp let go, and fell at a height of abont tliir ; feet without serious injury. Professor , Vv ilbur held on and attempted to climb j into the basket, but was unable to do so, and tbe balloon shot upward-, rapid !ly with the leronaut hanging tielow. At ; a height of about one mile tbe doomed j man let gn his hold and came whirling ito he earth. At the height be had at I tained lie looked like a small stick about | a foot long. As he approached the earth ; he was coming down head foremost, then spread out horizontally, then doubled up, turned over, and then straightened out with his lead downward. As be \ struck the earth he fell upon bis head and hack. His head was uiariicd int3 an inextinguishable mars. 'llie body made a hole in the ground eight inches deep, and it rebounded fonr feet frotn where it struck. To add to the painful character of the accident the professor's young wife and little daughter were on the ground, aud witnessed the terrible affair. A FABMER'H TRICK.—A Canadian far mer named Harvey, and whose melon patch bad nftnd ranch from the steal ing propensities of boys in the neigh borhood, recently attempted to put a atop to his troubles in an ingenious way. One night aa some men were passing hia farm they heard the report of a gun, and ran to the place whence the found proceeded, and here found Harvey stand ing over a boy who lay moaning, aaid be had been ahot in the back, and re fused to tell his name. The fanner ordered the men to leave, telling them he intended to ahoot any other person he might find stealing hia melons. 80 the neighbors were terrified, and boys refrained from robbing the pitch there after. The joke coiwhteu in the fact that no one had been ahot stall, the boy being in collusion with the man, and merely pretended that he had been wounded. THAT FOOLISH Doo.—ln Toledo, Ohio, recently, the attention of a lady was at tracted to a couple of boys in the alreet. ooe of whom, seemingly addressing the other, was expressing bis indignati on'in the most bitter terms. "You fool, you," he went on ; "you fool; I'm ashamed of you. You're the very darndesfc fool I ever" did see; confound yon !" The lady finally interposed to suggest the unfitness of such language toward his associate, when he replied. " Why, I wasn't talking to this boy; I was talking to my dog here. "Why, don't you be- 1 iieve, ma'am, the fool barked at that) stone dog back there in that dooryard. f Why, dam him, I won't be followed by a dog that don't know more than that r j The lady gave np the job and retired. [ *' llow to Ltre on a Sixpence a Bay." Thia i* the title of a little pamphlet jiiat nnhliidied by an Fngiiah gentleman, l>r Nichols, in which he undertakea to *how Hint "the average man" own not only live on a sixpence day, but that anon living, like mirly rising, "will make j liirn healthy,wealthy,and wise," Perhaps it was not to lie expected that the stx jienee a day should cover the cost of clothes, houae-renl, rsics, taxes, Slid other concomitants of civilisation; *• we acouieace with s sigh in the propri ety of leaving such matter* out of the co'nsideratio.l. It is enough to le con viticed that, "so far as food and drink are concerned, eveiy one can live com fortably, nicely, and healthily, on a six itenee a day."" We are ea|ieei*l)y earoful ! to mark the word drink •, for we rcmeni- Wr that a learned judge, tming naked ; upon a certain occasion whether a thirsty locked-np jury might have some water supplied to them, aaid that " as he didn't think it was meat, and he was quite sure it wasn't drmk, they might tie al lowed to have it" We move cautiously forward, and the doctor soon shows of what he ia capable, i "Whetlier we eat milk, butter, or oheeae or beefsteak, or a mutton-chop, we eat j grawi at necoud-hsnd," he says ; " and i all flesh is gnu*," he quotes in a sense which was certainly not iutended in the Scriptural passage, and which would justify cannitinlnuu. What conclusion ia he about to draw t Are we, in order jto keep within our six notice a day, to follow the example of Neb ichaduessar ? But thing* are not quite so lind as we fear. He puts his veto UIHUI all flesh of land animals; but he allows an occa sional jienny worth of flmlt, and the grain*, j fruits, and vegetables he recommends are in numlier as the grains of sand on i the seashore. If yon wi*h to be a real epicure on a sixpence a day, "a penny i worth of potatoes and a pennyworth of dried codfish boiled together, then both mashed and mixed together with a bit !of butter, make an excellent dish. Add a pennyworth of greens and yon never need dine better." Of course, if yon had to entertaiu some genteel jierson age, yon would add some "cracked whenb inush, milk, sugar, and stewed prunes, llut the chief question in all , these affairs is with what choice liquor you are to wash down all thus > dimities; and the reply is rain-water. Filtered, if voa like, but IU any case, rain-wwter. the doctor declare# that it were far bet ter to drink even light w nies than tea and coffee, which, under certain circum stance*, entail all sorts of diseases, sud : especially paralysis and apoplexy. The fsre he apjieors particularly to rec omuieud is oatmeal assisted by rain water; and he desires this combination to be taken "in pleasant company, gnylv and mirthfully, and iu every case, with thanksgiving." But has the doctor any examples to advance of persona who turn really lived ou a sixpence or less a day ? He lias many; but it canuot be said that they are satisfactory or encouraging The cases he alludes* to of persons who are believed to have lived on very little food, or "none whatever" belong, as he justly observe*, to the sujwruatural or der. " The many abstemious saints, too, whom he mentions bv name, can not be considered to strengthen his cause ; for he undertakes to gratify the aeasea as well as satisfy the mere IKHIIIV wants of men, whereas the abstemiousness of the saints was confessedly penitential. Nor is the doctor more fortunate in the "millions" who,accordng to his account, "live on 1H than a sixpence a day." He finds them in some poor-law unions, in the Irish prisons, and in other place*; but he makes no attempt to show that they find their eouditiou "delightful to the sense*," or that, however healthy they may be, they are witty, or wise." The Murder of a Chief Justice. Mr. Justice Norman, Acting Chief- Justice of the High Court of Judicature, at Calcutta, India, who died from wounds received at the lmnds of an assasaiu, was the sou of a Somersct-dure bunker, and was called to the Bar in 1852. In 1836 he became authorized reporter for the Court of the Exchequer, aud in 1861 was given the judgeship of the Supreme Court at Calcutta. He enjoyed the rep illation of being a profound jurist, ami was peculiarly gentle, kind aud consid erate. though never flinching from his own opinion. A few months ago he wit* appointed Chief-J list ice during the ab sence of Sir Richard Conch. The murderer, who is believed to be a mcmler of the Wahabee conspiracy, as certained at what tiuie the Court ojiened, waited on the steps until the arrival ot Mr. Justice Norman whom ho struck with a tapering Ooorkha knife. When stabbed, Justice Norman fell, but rveov ered himself and ran, thru stopped and threw a brick at the murderer, who was promptly captured. M. Justice Norman received one wound iu the atalomen and one on the left shoulder between the spine and blade bone. The murderer made no defence. In reply to a ques tion. he said that "the earth is sunk be low the water, and the men have gone up to the sky ; the dog is eating the wall. He is believed to be feigning madness. He is a wild, ignorant man, and evidently an adept at murder. It is believed that the crime had some con nection, with the final trial of Ameer Khan, a leading YVahabee, which was to take place in a short time limiting Dwn a Millionaire. The following story is told by the San Francisco Ckrmide of Meiggs, the great railway prince of Pern, who ran awav in debt from San Francisco, some years ago : Mrs. Josslvn is a washer woman, and works very hard for her liv ing. In the palmy days of Harry Meiggs she deposited with him no less an amount than 82,500, and when Meiggs and her money was gone, the time in which a woman could lay up so large a sum from tee profits of her business was gone also. But she washed on, and kept her head alove water. Home two or three months ago she read in The Overland Monthly. or some other publication, of how much money her old banker had made in Honth America Wv building railroads, r.nd with a beautiful faith in human na ture, which cannot be too highly com mended, she embarked upon the Panama sb-ann r and wended her way to the sultry South, where Meiggs now holds may, Hhe sought the millionaire in the gorgeous residence so graphically de scribed in Thr Overland, and presented her bank book and told her tale. M- iggs listened, and when she had finished he handed her a check for the amount of the deposit and interest from its date to the time of payment. Hhe departed n wealthier and happier woman, and re turned to Han Francisco, where she ar rived by the last steamer. TROUBLE IN UTAH.— There can he lit tle doubt that serious trouble is imitcnd ing in Utah. It will lie remembered that at the last session pf Congress a most stringent bill was passed by tbe House to punish polygamy in that terri itory, but failed to be acted on in the 8-mute. It w;:s nevertheless an ml mi lus tration measure, and the policy it sought to enforce is assumed now to exist in other statute*". The course of the Uni ted Stab-s judicial officers in Utah meets, therefore, with the fullest Executive ap proval, and it is learned from the proper quarter tliut it will !H vigorously sus tained even at the point of the bayonet The administration is evidently deter mined to break up polygymy peaceably if possible, forcibly if necessary.
