The Farm and Household. ey A WRINKLE ABOUT THE AGE OF HORSES, o . A short time ago we met a gentle- * man from Illinois who gave us a piece of information in regard to ascertaining the age of a horse, after he or she had passed the ninth year, which was new to us, and will be, we are sure, to most of our readers. It isthis: After the horse is nine years old, a wrinkle on the eyelid at ghe upper corner of the lower lid, and évery year thereafter he has one well-defined wrinkle for each year over nine. If, for instance a horse.has three wrinklds heé is twelve,if he has four he is thirteen. Add the number of wrinkles in nine and you will get it. So says the gentleman, and he is confident it will never fail. As a good many people haye horses over nine it is eagsily tried. If true, the horse dentist must give up his trade.—Field and Fireside.

HOW TO WATER HORSES. One writer says, never water immediately before or after feeding. I say that if a horse' is thirsty, always give him drink, and he will thank you for ite k& &ave oftenseen horses put in the stable &t noon for an hour or two, and not eat a pound-of hay or grain, but looking wistfully for water, and then their careful owner, who would not let them have waterwhen warm, will come to give them enough to kill, and drive the remainder of the day on two buckets of water and no feed. Ten chances to one his horse gives out with him or gets sick before night.— Now, I say give the horse water if he is ever so warm; give him a swallow, rinse out his mouth and nostrils, give him a bite of hay, in a short time a little more water, but not too much.— If he is watered several times, he will not drink half what he would if you let him gulp it down at ene.—Cor. Tribune. J ¥

CONSIDERABLE has lately been said in medical journals concerning the remedial properties of milk in certain diseases. An interesting article on this important subject lately appeared in the London Milk Jowrnal, in which it is stated, on the aut -ority of Dr. Benjamin Clark, that in the East Indies warm milk is used to a great extent as a spedific for diarrheea. A pint every four hours will check the most violeat ' diarrheea, stomach-ache,incip-ient cholﬁra and dysentery. The milk should not be boiled, but only heated suflicieatly to beé agrceably warm.— This writer gives several instances in arresting the disease, among which is the follwoing: “It has mnever failed in curing in six or eight hours, and I have tried it,«l should think, fifty times. T gave it to a dying man, who had been subject to dysentery eight months, and it acted upon him like a charm. In two days his diarrhea was gone, and in three weeks lie became a hale, fat man, and now nothing that may hereafter occur will ever shake his faith in the virtue of milk.”

. PLOWING OUT POTATOES. ' . A correspondent. of the Country Gentleman writes: In the absence of a good potato digger, the idea of plowing them out is not a bad one. Ihave tried it with good suceess. Where land is passably clean, and the potatoes lie in the center of the hill, like the Early Rose, Pee less and Excelsior, take a common double moldboard shovel plow, hiteh 0.1 two horses: and plow: overy other row. Have the potatoes picked up and plow the alternate rows. When they are all plowed out, and those that can be seen picked up, run over the ground with a common harrow (Thomas’ smoothing harrow would wndosbtedly be much better,) and the potatoes will be out as clean as though. dug by hand, and in less than half the time the same help. woald do the work by hand digging. In ‘two pieces, where I dug them in this way, I think there were less potatoes left in the ground than would be left in by hand diggers. The first piece I dug in this manner I plowed immediately for rye, and I was surprised to ind so few potatoes left. @ |

HOW TO KEEP OFF THE CHOLERA. First clean all the filth away from yards, stables, and out-houses; ' then scatter lime over the surface. Pour hot water upon sulphate of iron (cop-: peras) until you make a saturated solution; that is, as long as the water will dissolve the copperas. Take your garden sprinkler and sprinkle the limre with the solution, just as you would a flower bed. Immediate chemical action is the result—the sulphuric acid leaving the iron and fortning lsulphate of lime, the iron uniting the oxygen of the air, forming the red oxide, or rather the sesquioxide of iron. The sulphate of lime hastens the ‘decay of dead matter, vegetable and animal, at the same-time decomposing all the carbonate of ammonia which is evolyed by this decay, forming sulphate of ammonia and carbonate of lime, hoth of which are harmless substances.— This is said to be a most excellent disinfeetant, and is highly recommended for keeping off the cholera. It is one of the cheapest disinfectants that can be used, is easily made, and about as gmcacious as any of the costly reme--leB,

THE LUMBER TRADE OF THE NORTHWEST, ‘ : The lumber trade of the North-west is @n industry of enormous proportions. Last year the forests of Wisconsin, Michigan and Minnesota produced over eight hundred millions of feet of lumber, which was sent to the - Mississippi or the lakes; . Thig large product, if shipped by railway, would réquire fifty thousand trains, of at least fifteen cars each, so that the rafting has to be continued to the exclusion of railway transportation. These forests are the lumber producers of the entire North-west, so much of which is an almost traekless prairie. The portion sent to the Mississippi river floats down that stream, which is intersected by various railways, which bring grain and live stock from the interior, and carry back lumber. It costs about twenty-five cents a thousand feet for each hundred miles, to float the rafts down the river, and logs in the rafts vary from ten to fifteen dollars per thousand *On the . railways the freight is four dollars per thousand for each hundred miles.— Water transportation, as will thus be seen, is a great advantige. - ‘

A NEW REMEDY FOR THE POTATO : : BUG, | I send you my method of keeping off the various kinds (as we have some thirtéen different kinds here) of potato bugs. When the bugs first appear in the Spring I take a vessel of some kind and go .through my vines, gather the bugs and. put them in a tight vessel and keep them until I have enough, say two quarts, for a half acre of vines; then I place them in an iron pot which I _ﬁll‘3 with water. Place them over the fire in the open air, being careful not to inhale the steam, and boil them until they are thoroughly done; then I take the soup and a whitewash brush, and g 0 over my vines and n};:rinkl,e. them with it thors oughly. The result is the bugs all leave and will not return until the scent of the bugs is' all gone, which ig : Fe’nera‘lly from two to four weeks, un~ ess washed off by a very heavy dash of rain. Bugs will not eat bugs, at

least the same species. This method costs nothing but a little labor, whereas, all other kinds I have seen advertised do, and asinthese times farmers are not over flush with stamps, perhaps could not obtain them 2t the exatct tlime they are needed.—Jlowa Homestead. ; : ‘

THE STYLE OF FARMING CHANGING, Farmers are slow to adopt new customs, and are strongly inclined to fol= low ancestral leadings, doubtless on aecount of their conservative home life, but a change seems inevitable; Corn was once one of the staples of New England, but comparatively little is now raised. Western corn can be bought and delivered in New England for about seventy-five cents a bushel, while such is the price of farm labor and land that it costs at least a dollar a bushel to raise it here. Fat cattle were- once very popular in the river valleys, but the fact that there is less money in them than formerly has changed this style of farming, too.— The country is larger than it used to be, and the modes of commuanicating easier; hence neither Westfield nor Deerfield, can: reasonably sexpeect. to monopolize tke trade in large fat cattle, as ‘oncc they-dids The mountain towns also took in their fancy matched steers, but milch cows and dairy are now growing more into their favor. The rearing of oxen, the manufacture of butter and cheese, the fattening of swine and poultry and the Winter hauling of wood and timber, were once considered the essential routine and glory of New England husbandry. But very little of these are found profitable now. Indeed horses have largely taken the place of working cattle; dairy products come chiefly from factories; swine’s flesh is unfashionable; the steady love of poultry has given away to a periodiecal henflawenza; and it is found easier to buy coal than to saw wood. The times have changed, and values have altered with them, so that it is not only an idle but fatal error to stick to the old paths. The dilapidated homesteads’ and theantiquated look of some of the young farmers are evidence of their strong but unwise attachments to old things. Farm life is not necessarily a vegetative one. With greater enterprise, we believe will come a greater success in farming, and so a greater love for it. ‘

. The Pension Law. The new 'Pension Act, passed at the last session of Congress, declares that the- pensions of widows shall be increased at: the rate of $2 per month for each child under the age of sixteen years of the husband on account of whose death the claim has been or shall be granted, the increase to date from July 25, 1866.—Exchaage. This statement (says the Crawfordsville Journal) which has been quite extensively published has caused a good deal of trouble among the widOWS, as we learn from a pension agent. It gives the impression that those who are now drawing $2 per month for each child under sixteen years of age are entitléd to $4 per month hereafter. This, however, according to the Pension Department, is a mistake. The new pension act referred to is merely are-enactiment of the old law of July 25, 1866. Those who already draw $2 per month are receiving the full benefit of the law zu}d are not entitled to an additional pension. L - E— i How to Start Manufactories. . The Indianapolis Sentinel tells how it is possible to build up a manufacturing town: Lo , The secret of suceess is to begin, not to wait and beg of somebody else to come where there is nothing to attract except space. In the west the p-ope - ty pwne-s ger erally stic z totheir lots, and want soiaebody else to crowd business and wealth upon them, while they s't still and do nothing. Theie are two fe sorite methods of getting rich in the west. OQne, by holding real estate far in advance; the other loaning money at extravagant rates.— Neither of them . contemplate a particle of exertion, and that is the darling idea of a western capitalist—todo mnothing. He will not invest in /manufactories because that involves administrative labor and ability. A benk suits him better than a factory. But it should be understood that the question of locality is ‘essential. The secret of making a town the center of ‘mechanical industry, is to select an article of steady, constant demand and then bravely begin, on a small capital if necessary, and the natural law of association will do the rest.

The Beecher Scandal. 5 They do things with great intelligence and superhuman energy at Plymouth Church. Henry Ward Beecher has for a year past been charged with debauching a female member of his congregation. The secandal has been talked about and written about all over the country. Finally, within the last. few weeks, the matter getting too hot on his hands, the dignified Henry has thought it worth his while to dehy the truth of the charge. Now, hischurch has taken the matter up, and if spared, aud they don’t happen to change their minds, they will probe the matter to the bottom or die of old age first. . As a beginning, they have put Henry Bowen on trial for slandering his pastor, he being the author of the charge, and a member of the congregation. Herein is a hint for the lawyers. When, in the future, a man is indicted for any offense, first arrest and put on trial the man who filed the affidavit against him. Scene in an Omnibus, ‘ In New York, a few days since, a gentleman and his wife entered one of the Third Avenue omnibuses.— Shortly after, an elegantly dressed. lady, with rather a “fast” aspect, was . also taken up. It was apparent that the gentleman and the last, passenger were familiar acquaintances; but the gentleman did not. appear willing to acknowledge it in the presence of his better half. After withstanding sundry smiles and knowing winks, until he knew his wife had remarked them, he determined to address the lady, as if they had once casually met, and thus quiet the apprehension his Spouse might entertain. “I believe, madam.” said he, “I had the pleasure of daneing with you once?” “Yes,” replied the . lady aloud, “and the pleasure of hugging me often.” The sequel may be imagined. .

Neither Senator, Conkling nor Senator Howe Can be Chief-Justice. LFromm the Evening Post.] The Chief-Justiceship cannot be given to either Senator Hewe or Senator Conkling, or any other member of the Senate. The sixth sectioh of the first article of the Comstitution declares that “no Senator or[%epresentative Shallyldu;'igg bthe time for which he was elected, beappointed to ary. éiyil ! office under the &hoﬁty of g‘g "U?ﬁ- | ;gd @tatas, wg'i&h shall have been crefled or the emoluments whereof shall have %een increased during such ﬂxgg.” Among the sa%ﬁri:sfrggsedhby the. last Longress was that of the Chief-Justice. Thd President, thérefore, is lmcm! from appointing any member of the United States Senate who belonged to bhat body at the last session. =« s

¢ A CORRESPONDENT of 4 New XYork paper gives his e _perience about topdressing meadows, as follows: -“In my experience the best results can he obtained by applyirs the manure on the surface of the meadow as soon as possible after the grass has been cut. It it is cloudy or rainy at the time, or soon after, so much the better, as the liquid from the manure will then be carried into the soil, to be taken up by the roots of the grass at the time when they need the stimulus the most, as they receive a severe shock by being laid bare to the action of the sun’s rays‘at a season of the year when the weather is dryest. I have noticed that. if grassiscut close tothe ground, it will start much sooner. ‘I am inclined to think that the reason for this is that there is not so much root left exposed. If manure is applied at the time stated, in a short time it will be covered by a heavy aftermath, furnishing a protection from the heat of autumn, as well as from the frosts of fall and spring. ‘

Tue American Stock Jouwrnal tells how much will keep a horse: “A horse weighing from ten to twenty hundred pounds will eat about six tons of hay, or its equivalent, in a year.— And we suppose the real point to get at is, whether one can keep his horse cheaper on some other . product: than hay. This is an exceedingly difficult question to answer—it: depends. so much on circumstances. Weshall not attempt to answer it fully at this time, but ‘merely say ‘that, in our opinion, three and a half tons of corn would keepahorse a year in fully as good condition as six tons of hay. We must estimate, also, that it will take three and a half tons of oat straw and two and a half tons of oats to keep a horse a year.. A bushel of ‘oats weighs 32 pounds, so that it will take over 155 bushels'and’ three and a half tons of straw, to keep a horse a year. It would take about 2 acres of good land to produce this.”, - =

A CERTAIN AMOUNT of exercise is necessary to the enjoyment of good health. Neither very hard work nor great muscular developement are needed. Indeed, it is almost certain that they are unfavorable. Great moderation in this, as well as in food, is more favorable. It is particularly desirable that the occupation should be an agreeable one, adapted to the taste, and that it shall satisfy the ambition.

Tane Valparaiso Widette truthfully remarks: “A local editor of many years experience has declared that the man is yét'unborn who could write a local, item and be perfectly sure that nobody would be offended. If we speak well of our neighbor, his enemy will be offended. If we speak disréspectfully of him his friend will stop his paper. 1f we write in favor of a city organization we offend those who oppose it, etc., but who cares. It will be a dull world if nobody moves in it,” ’

A RETURN to the old plan of apprentieing boys to trades is being advocased. The hosts of young men in every large city who apply for employment and fail to get it for the reason that they cannot truthfully affirm that they are educated or especially fitted for any particular business, constitutes a potent argument in favor of reform.— Under the apprentice . system we should have fewer ignorant mechanies and incompetent business men. A trade is half a man’s fortune. 4

EX-SENATOR HENRY S. FOOTE, in the Washington Chronicle, writes: “It is known to many that Mr. Madison first tendered the commission of MajorGeneral afterward bestowed on Gen. Jackson, to Mr. Clay. Had he accepted it and fought successfully the battle of New Orleans, as he doubtless would have done, how different might have been his own political fortunes, and h'ow, different the history of our country’ : : .

“Cannot something be done to prevent young ladies from being insulted on our streets at night?” asks a Cincinnati paper. . There can. . Justhave the girl’s mother tuck her into her little bed about eight o’clock in the evening and lock the door on her. A young lady living .aﬁ'an(}li‘l‘arié Wisconsin, disappeared the other day; and after 300 people had searched for five hours, she was found sitting on the bank of the river with her lover, squeezing hands: and talking nonsense, as if nothing had happened. :
