How to 1 reat Baulky Homos. If you have baulky horse, it is your own fault and not the horses’, for if they do not pull true there is some cause for it, and if you will remove the cause, the effect will cease. When your horse baulks he is excited, and does not know what you want him to do.— When he gets a little excited, stop him five or ten minutes; let him become calm; go to the baulky horse, pat him and speak gently to him; and as soon as he is over his excitement, he will, in nine eases out of ten, pull at the word. Whipping, and slashing, and swearing, only make the matter worse. After you have gentled awhile, and his excitement has cooled down, take him by the bits; turn him each way for a few minutes, as far as you can; pull out the tongue; geyfttle him a little; unrein him; then step, before the baulky horse, and let the other start first; then you can take them anywhere you wish. A baulky horse is always high spirited and startes quick; half the pull is out before the other starts; by standing before him the other starts first. By close application to this rule you can make any baulky horseJpull. If a horse iias veen badly spoiled you should hitch him to an empty wagon, and pull it around awhile on level ground; then put on a small load, and increase it gradually, caressing as before, and in a short time you have a good work horse. — Am. Farmer. - r -1 Seed Corn. Farmers are doing themselves and the reputation of their State injustice by not carefully selecting their seed corn. The markets are always a little higher for yellow or choice white corn than for mixed, which is at best an unatural and slovenly hybrid. The State would undoubtedly be SIOO,000 richer to-day if we transported for sale only prime yellow or white corn, instead of the whitish-yellowish-redish invisible brindle i. product of our fertile fields which we call mixed corn. Now is the time for the farmer to select his seed for the next corn planting.— Let him plant only bright, deep broad yellow, or generous, broad white seed, grown on a small white cob, and he will be the better for it. White corn grown on a red cob is not white, but mixed. — There is a prevailing delusion among producers that . corn is white. White corn is all white. Other hues may be mingled, or mottled or mixed, but cannot be white.— lndiana State Journal. '* Neuralgia. We clip the following from the Alta California a receipt. f qj the, cure of neuralgia, which the editor of the paper claims to have been effective in several cases to his own knowledge. He says’: Some time ago we published at the request of a friend, a receipt to cure neuralgia. Half a drachm of sal ammonia in an ounce of camphor water, to be taken a teaspoonful at a dose, and the dose repeated several times at intervals of five minutes, if the pain be not relieved at once. Half a dozen different persons havo since tried the receipt, and in every case an immediate tore has been effected. In one, the sufferer, a lady, had been aflicted for more than a week, and her physician was unable to. alleviate her sufferings, when a solution of sal amonia in camphor water relieved her in a few minutes. Chaff iu the Eye. Last winter one of my cows got an oat chaff in her eye, which stuck to the eye ball. In a short time a thin Aim began to gather around the chaff, and it soon made the cow entirely blind. I put salt in her eye as many as ten times, - but it did no good. I then tried flax seed, tobacco juice, burnt alum, but all but all to no I then tried strained honey, which effectually cured her eye in three applications.— Cor. Western Rural. . Potatoe Sausage. Take equal parts of coht hailed potatoes and uncooked fresli or pickled pork, the pork equal lean and fat. Grate or chop the potatoes, and chop the pork both very fine. Mix the two well, and season highly with pepper, salt and sage, or summer savory. If pickkled pork is used, it will require no salt. Make into cakes and fry to a nice brown on both sides, and you have a nice dish for brcaklast. — Western Rural.
