Dishorning Cattle.

A writer in the Country Genii---man says: All cattle (especial*.balls) ought to be dishorned at three to live weeks old. It is very simple operation then, as tinhorns do not adhere to the skull at that time, and it is not nearly as painful as castration. It costs. | one-fifth less to keep dishorned i cattle of the same weight and size than it does those with horns.
