I From the American Agriculturist.) AGRICULTURAL. How to. Milk. JohnK. Busteed. a milker of 25 years' experience, says he alwav» milks his cowsin the same order and that is the order of their calving, so that each cow knows her turn. He wipes the teats off with dry hands, and taking hold X-sash- j ion, milks two teats dry. then takes the : others —always keeps his hands dry, and ; never has any trouble about the cows holding up their miik. He thinks the practice of changing from one cow to another (or from one pair of teats to the other), gets both milker and cows in bad habits. E. Doblo practises very much in the same way. never changing his hands to the other teats before the first two are milked dry, except in stripping The philosiphy of this practice seems to be. that as the cow gets no relief or but little before the second pair of teats is partly milked, until that time at least, she will not withhold her milk. Long Cut Feed better than Short. A. correspondent reasons as follows: When a boy, we were taught to cut straw and hay for horses as short as possible, and the reason assigned was, that horses would eat it sooner, and with greater avidity. In after life, we observe that it was not so good for the horses. Straw and hay ent cne inch long, for animals that do not chew the cud, better than if out to one fourth inch. When straw is ent very short, much of it goes into the stomach without being crushed. For this reason, a great deal of it does not digest, though the juices of the stomach would have dissolved it, had it been properly masticated. When a horse begins to eat, the salivary’ glands sends a stream of saliva into the animal’s month, to moisten and soften the feed and to prepare it for more easy digestion. Therefore it is important that every piece of straw or hay should be crushed and macerated between the teeth, and the saliva thoroughly mingled with whatever is eaten before it is swallowed. As saliva is a powerful solvent, the organic structure of all feed should be broken up by the teeth, and the salava and all the small fragments brought is contact with the liquid.

Woo! or Grease. We can’t raise wool for less than 75c alb. So say the Ohio Wool Growers, Id Convention assembled. Is it possible* To this complexion have we come at last? Whereareihe “Improved American Merinos?” Have the manufacturers learned to ! discriminate?” Won't they pay as much for grease as for wooi* There is something wrong somewhere. Were we not told that if we would pay a thousand or fifteen hundred dollars for an Infantado, we could raise wool for little more chan expense of shearing. It is not two years ago that, at one of the meetings for Discussion in the Evenings during the N. Y. Slate Fair at Rochester Lewis, F. Allen cautioned farmers against rushing thoughtlessly into sheep speculation, says that he had known wool sold for 25c. per lb , and probably it would not be many years be sere we should* witness the same thing again. Whereupon np rose an Honorable gentleman from lowa, and remarked "‘Well we e»n rais- wool for twenty-five cents a pound.” Is he of the same opinion still, or dose it co-t more to produce greace than he calculated! Feed Sheep Regularly. *’S eepards,” writing from B rrlio Heights, Ohio, truly says; “We who I are the care of domestic animals, cannot be too particular with them, especially in regard to set time cf feedioz ” He edds: Let any one who Itas bad no regular time for feeding sheep-, now com ~ence, and see if there wdl uoi be at once an improvement in the disposition and condition of the fio-k. Regularity of feeding sheep is an essential point in keeping them in a thriving condition. but one which is overlooked or unheeded by many. Sheep fed at irregular times know not when to expect their food, they therefore wander about and are uneasy not quiet and peaceable as they should be and will be if treated in the right way, and fed morning arid evening a perfectly regular hour. Sows Lying on their Figs. It may be well at this season to again remind the readers of the .Agriculturist, ; that all danger from sows lying on their young can be obviated by simply fasten j mg poles on the sides of the p'n, say a foot from the sides, mil a foot from the floor. The sow rarely, if ever, lies on her young, she crushes them against the tides of the pen. The poles, by keep- ■ ing the sow a foot or so from the Bides, prevent all danger. It is a simple matter. Any one who ean cut down a pole in the woods, and knows how to use a saw and a hammer, can spike them together and to the sides of the pen, and she thing is don®, It is exceedingly annoying to los two or three little pigs nut of a nice litter, when half nr. > husr’. wirrk would have prevented | it. Il is not merely the loss now Next fall they will be worth 820. §3O, ’ or perhaps §4O a piece at little cost for koepisg-.
