The hunting around our wilds has
been very good this fall. Several
deer have been-killed and taken
away, and some still remain among
the old hunters.
Last Sunday morning, Mrs. E.
Kimble was out on the piazza and
heard a sound which she supposed
was a calf bawling and spoke to one
of her workmen, Jip Kirkendall.who
also listened when they heard the
barking of several hounds and look
ing in tho direction from whence it
came, saw a deer struggling to get
away from the fighting dogs. lie
immediately seized his gun and
within five minutes, the fine fawn,
as it proved to lie, was hanging in
the shed. The dogs had broken one
of its legs and "Jip" says, he shot it
to "save its life."
" Mr. W. E. Bittenliender, of Scran
ton, who has been sjicndiiig a week
at the "Kimble Mansion," had very
good luck hunting. We saw him
start for home Monday with a very
fine deer, that he shot Wednesday
and a large string of jmrtvidges he
had " brought down " during the
week.

DEHORNING WITH CHEMICALS.
Ftrmart are Beflnnlnf to Undentnd That Da
hernln Can Ba Done with Caustic Potaah.
The practice of dehorning conmion
cattle has Ikx-oiiio quite general over
large sections of the country. The
edict has gone forth "the horns must
go." The advantages in feilingand
shipping are so many and obvious
that farmers who handle large num
liers of cattle will no longer tolerate
horns. Dehorning is easily done at
the proper season of the year either
with the saw or with the shears.
The better way, however, is by pre
venting tho growth of tho horns by
the use of chemicals. A numlxr of
preparations were put on the market
some years ago, hut their uso has
been largely discontinued. Farmers
are beginning to understand that de
horning can lie done most readily
with caustic iMitash which can be
purchused at any drug store. Alxmt
half a cent's worth is snltieent for a
calf under a week old. The best way
of applying it is.insert tho small stick
in a tulje,or hold a pair of tweezers,
so that considerable pressure may lie
used nnd the fingers not burned.
The caustic should lie rubliod vigor
ously over the bump for a minute or
so xintil it has a sore appearance
A heavy scale will then form around
tho horn, which will cease to grow,
and in the course of time the seal
will rub off and the bud with it. Th.'s
no doubt causes the little animal con
siderable pain but there is no danger
of any serious consqueiices,and the
horn being removed a nice smooth
poll will be developed. It should
however, be bcr ie in mind that
nature provides somes means of de
fense and hornless cuttle are notor
ious kickers ; they learn to use their
heels rather than their heads. This
is particularly true of the naturally
hornless breads, but Wii have no
doubt tho homed breeds, if dehorned
in ealfhood, will soon lea ru the trick.
The gentlest dehorned cattle are
those on which the horns are allowed
to grow until they learn to use them
for offunua and defence and then
re dehorned, --Kx:hange.-
