Farm, Garden and Household.
WHICH PAYS BEST?
How often do we hear farmers ask
this question ? Which will pay me
best, cattle or sheep ? Now, there is
much difference of opinion on this
question. Those that keep cattle claim
that they are the most profitable, and
those that keep sheep think the same
of their flocks. I claim that sheep are
the most profitable, and I will try and
prove it. Take, for instance, a two
year-old steer, weighing 1,000 pounds,
worth 4 cents a pound, or S4O ; what
is the cost of raising to that age ?
First year to milk, grain and hay,
sl2; one summer's pasture, $4 ; six ,
months' feeding bay and grain, sl6 ;
making the total cost $32. This is a
very low estimate, everything being
down to the lowest notch. Now, you
gee that it has cost $32 to raise this
steer, and he is sold for S4O. Subtract
his keeping from what he sold for and
you have the profit of SB. This is
counting nothing for trouble, allowing
* the manure to balance that.
Now for the sheep. It will cost to
raise and keep eight lambs until the\
are one year old, for pasture, hay and
grain, S2O; making their total cost
from birth until two years old $32.
Now for the other side. Eight head
of sheep, weighing 125 pounds per
head, making 1,000 pounds at 4 cents
per pound, is S4O. Two clips of wool,
16 fleeces, weighing 5 pounds per
fleece, makes 80 pounds of wool; at
32 cents per pound, $25.60. Now
take the S4O that the sheep sold for,
and you have $65.60 as total receipts.
Subtract cost from this and you have
$33.60 profit on eight sheep against $8
profit on steer, both weighing the same
at the same age, and both costing the
same for keep, leaving a balance of
$25.60 iu favor of the sheep, showing
clearly that it is better to keep sheep
than cattle, especially where we have
small farms. I think that this esti
mate is correct, taking prices in this
neighborhood as a basis.— Ex.
cow CHOKING.
A veteran farmer told me a few days
ago of a method of relieving a chokiug
cow, which he assured me was unfail
ing. It is worthy of trial at any rate.
A round stick, two or three inches
* long, is put into the cow's mouth, like
a bit into a horse's mouth. A string
is then fastened to each end of the
stick and tied to the horns or up over
the bead This forces her to keep her
mouth open and allows the gas which
formß in the stomach, and is the cause
of the severe pain and rapid swelling
which accompanies choking in a cow,
to escape. The effort also of trying to
rid the mouth of its unusual encum
brance is the best help toward freeing
the passage of the throat; if the trou
ble is not removed in this way the cow
may be kept alive until help is ob
tained for trying other measures for
her relief. In such cases time is of
great importance. He assures me has
seen his plan tried in many cases, and
in none had it ever failed of a complete
cure in less than half an hour.— Ex.
WINTER TREATMENT OF POULTRY.
A correspondent in addressing us on
this subject, says in brief, that each
fowl ought to produce 160 eggs a year;
that in winter warmth is indispensa
ble ; that the fowls must have some of
the food they find at other seasons
when at large; that they must have
plenty of room in their house, and it
and the laying boxes kept clean ; that
they must be fed with corn, barley,
oats, hive a box of sand, oyster or
clam shells pounded up, or old mortar,
or bones dried and pounded fine; that
mashed boiled potatoes and corn meal
are excellent ; that fatty matter of any
kind, fresh beef or pork scraps, &c.,
must form a portion of their diet; that
hens are fond of vegetable matter dur
ing winter and will eat cabbage, &c.;
and that they must be kept free from
vermin, which nearly afways follows
entire cleanliness. In case, however,
vermin should still make their appear
ance, there is nothing so effective in
removing them as rubbing the top of
the head, under the wings and upon
the back with lard. These sugges
tions wo have made time and again,
and have only to add now that all
who desire complete success, and, of
course, satisfactory profit from poultry
raising, must adopt them.
TO KEEP APPLES.
Apples to be good keepers must be
free from bruise or blemish. They
must be spread out on shelves or
packed in barrels, and kept in an at
mosphere of from forty to fifty de
grees, better from forty to forty-five—
that is at a temperature as equable as
possible. Some cellars are just the
thing, and preserve them beautifully.
Others are too moist. Where this is
the case a few bushels of stone lime
should be used. Sliding shelves, six
inches apart, latticed bottom with a
single layer of fruit, are extremely
convenient, as they allow of constant
examination without disturbing the
fruit.
TO TIOIITEN WAGON TIRES.
The following way of tightening
wagon tires will be found 'to be suc
cessful. Apply leather rings between
the shoulders on tho outer ends of the
spokes and the corresponding portions
of the felloes, which may be done as
follows: Procure a number of small
Eieces of leather from an inch and a
alf to two inches in diameter; with a
sharp knife and compasses or with a
cutting punch make round holes in the
centres of these pieces, and make a
straight cut from the boles to tho outer
edge of the pieces, so as to form open
rings. The holes must be made of a
Bize that will nicely fit the tenons on
the outer ends of the spokes. Place a
fulcrum on the top of the hub, on
which place your lever, with its short
end under the felloe, near a spoke;
have an assistant bear down on the
outer end sufficiently to raise the fel
loe and expose the shoulder and tenon
of the spoke ; open your leather ring
and fit it nicely around the tenon,
holding it to its place, while your as
sistant relaxes the lever and settles
the felloe firmly upon the leather by a
blow or two on the tire. Having re
peated the process with a sufficient
number of spokes to make the tire all
right, trim off the projecting leather
even with the surface of the spukes,
and your task will be done. If your
Eieces of leather should be spongy
ammer them down some before using.
LIME ON POTATOES.
To prevent potatoes from rotting in
the bins, dust the floor of the bin with
lime and put in six or seven inches of
potatoes, then dust as before, and put
in more potatoes; using one bushel of
lime to forty bushels of potatoes. The
lime improves the flavor of the pota
toes, and effectually kills the fungi
which causes the rot.
THE PENSIONERS' BUREAU.
Since the passage of the arrears of
pensions act fifty thousand rejected
claims have been presented again to
the Commissioner of Pensions. These,
with the number of unsettled claims
now before the bureau swell the total
number to more than one hundred and
eighty thousand. The number of
claims received each week since the
passage of the act referred to averages
twenty-five hundred, which is double
the number that the bureau can con
sider under its present system of doing
business. The Commissioner receives
about twenty-two hundred letters
daily from inquiring pensioners, and
over twelve hundred letters sent out
daily in reply. The pensioners now
on the roll number about one hundred
and thirty-five thousand, the list hav
ing been increased more than ten thou
sand during the year by the settle
ment of claims of pensions of the war
of 1812. Commissioner Bentlev has a
plan to radically change the present
system of paying pensions. It is to
divide the United States into districts,
which shall be under the control of a
commission consisting of a surgeon
and a skilled pension clerk, the duties
whom shall be to attend at the prin
cipal places in the district and hear
evidence in application for pensions.
An ingenious system of blanks has
been suggested for communicating
with the central office. The benefits
of this plan would be to subject old
claims to a more rigid examination,
and to protect the Government and
the pension fund against fraudulent
and unmeritorious claims, and at the
same time to greatly reduce the cost of
the payment of pensions. The first pen
sion law of which there is any knowl
edge in England was the act of 1502,
which authorized the payment of a
weekly sum from every parish for the
relief of the sick, hurt and maimed
soldiers or marines. Commissioner
Bentlev goes back to the original prin
ciple, and relegates the question of
the right to pensions to the people of
the parish. The witnesses would all
be neighbors of the claimants.
A STRANGE COLLISION AT SEA.—
The Rotterdam - "unship P. Caland,
which arrived at New \ork September
1), brought the Captain and crew of a
Norwegian bark which had been sunk
by collision with some sea monster in
mid-ocean. The bark Columbia left
London for Quebeck, in ballast, August
8, and met with variable weather until
the morning of the 4th of September,
when she was sailing at the rate of
from C to 7 miles an hour before a fair
wind. The sea was not very rough,
and the bark was carrying all sail and
westward. The Captain was oil deck
at five bells in the morning watch,
when a tremendous shock, which shook
the bark from stem to stern, was sud
denly felt. The men who were asleep
in their bunks were awakened, and
thinking that the foremast had been
carried away, sprang on deck Capt.
Larsen ami three of his men ran to
the port side and saw the water dis
colored with blood, while the tail and
fins of a huge monster were seen
splashing about in the sea, which had
lieconie violently agitated on that side
of the vessel. At this moment one of
the crew cried out that a leak had been
sprung, and Capt. Larsen and the car
penter hurried down into the hold to
see if the bark had suffered any inju
ries. In the port bow, about three feet
below water mark, they found that
four planks had been crushed in for a
space about four feet long. A large
hole had been made, through which
the daylight above the water could be
plainly seen. The water was pouring
into the vessel through this hole. Sev
eral attempts were made to stop it up,
but failing, the bark was abandoned
and sank soon after. The Captain and
his crew of twelve men were fortu
nately picked up by the I*. Caland the
game day in the afternoon. No pre
cise description of the colliding mon
ster could be given. The Columbia
was an old ship, but about two years
ago was put on the stocks and thor
oughly replanked. Her bow was made
of solid four and a half inch oak
planking.
WIIY LINCOLN ALLOWED IIIS BEARD
TO GROW. —The portrait of Mr. Lin
coln was painted in 1800, during the
pendency of the Presidential election,
or immediately after, under an order
from Mr. Bryan, then a citizen of
Chicago. The face is unshaven, which
gives it a rather youthful look, with
out in the least improving its native
homeliness. Mr. Lincoln was in the
habit of explaining that lie "turned
his beard loose" at the suggestion of a
lady, whose knowledge of his personal
appearance was confined to newspaper
cuts, which fairly made him an ojjre.
She wrote to him that in her woman's
judgment whiskers would add much to
his beauty, and if he could be per
suaded to cultivate them she would
kiss him the first time they ever met.
The gallant rail splitter at once re
stricted his tonsorial operations to the
upper and nether lips, leaving them
free for the oscillatory reward, and in
a few weeks garnished his cheeks,
chin and throat with a hirsute adorn
ment, which puzzled Mrs. Lincoln and
surprised his friends without, as al
ready intimated, enhancing his per
sonal pulchritude. As the necessary
conclusion to this "owcr true tale," it
chanced that he and the unknown lady
met, a'ld the promised reward was
claimed and received.
THERE is a certain logic in business
which is exceedingly fascinating, and
a great many persons do business in
the logical way to which we refer.
Instance : A gentleman bought a horse
of a dealer who was never before
known to get the wrong end of a bar
gain for his portion. The agreement
and a very simple and fair one it
appeared to be—was that one-half of
the price should be paid down and that
the buyer should owe for the other
half. When the horse dealer, how
ever, presented himself ami demanded
the pay our logician replied that the
horse had been paid for. "Ilow can
that be?" cried the unhappy jockey.
"It's as clear as the light," replied the
man of superior inteligence. "Our
agreement was that I should pay you
one-half your price, which I did, and
that I should owe you for the other
lialf." "Exactly," said the jockey,
"those were the precise words, and
now I've come for the other half; don't
you see?" "1 prefer to stand by my
agreement, for I am a man of my
word," the philosopher responded,
'and how in the world can I owe you
for the second half of your price, as I
.promised I would, if I pay it? No,
|my friend. I'll -stick to my bargain
[and owe you, just as I said I would."

occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling off, and
consequently prevent baldness. Free
from those deleterious substances
which make some preparations dan
gerous, and injurious to the hair, the
Vigor can only benefit but not harm
it. If wanted merely for a
HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desir
able. Containing neither oil nor
dye, it does not soil white cambric,
and yet lasts long 011 the hair, giving
it a rich, glossy lustre and a grateful
perfume.
