He haa kept sheep for many years and has ne-ver had any killed by the dogs when pastured with the cows. Have others had the same experience? J. D. Van Doren, the celebrated Essex breeder of Pisk's'Corners, .Wisconsin, has removed with his entire herd of thoroughbred Essex swine to Albion, Boone county, Nebraska. He was one ofthe first to introduce this variety of swine, and his herd is now composed of some of the finest specimens ofthe Essex to be found in the world, Messrs. Given, Baum & Co., Frankfort, Indiana, have bought from William Meikle, Pendleton, Madison county, Indiana, the famous imported Clydesdale stallion, known by the name of Kob Roy, for the sum of $2,000. Rob Roy gained many prizes in Scotland while a colt, and sinco landing in America has taken prizes atvthe following places: When threo years old, at Indiana, Pa;, and Greensburg, Wostmoore-* land county, Pa.; at Indianapolis and St. Louis the same year; sweepstakes at Indianapolis in 1877; Anderson and Cicero, Indiana; in fact, has seldom been beaten. Meikle calls him his model of perfection as a draft horse, and he is undoubtedly one of the finest in America. Messrs. Given, Baum & Co. deserve great credit for their energetic spirit. Losing their fine Clydesdale last season, they try again, and their many patrons cant appreciate the advantage it is to them, to -have such men in their district who • take such risks. The improvement in horses in a few years will be immense. All the recommendation Rob Roy wants from horsemen, see him once, lt I a. » Study the Appetites and Habits of Animals. It is profitable and advantageous to cultivate in domestic animals a love ot home. Much time, labor, and anxiety are often expended in looking after wandering stock. A majority of cows and horses, that voluntarily go astray, do so because they find better feed, more attractive associates, or -better treatment abroad than at home. Every wise owner or manager of stock may soon learn by a few simple experiments that there dre several articles of food or relish for which cows and horses have as great a fondness as children have for cakes, jellies and candies. Horses, cows, and even sheep onjoy fondling and a soft, loving voice as much as do children. If to this treatment be added, occasionally, sugar, fruit, cake, salt, confections, and the like, these animals will never forget the hand that bestowed them nor the place where they, were received. If, at the time of the evening milking, the folding of the sheep, or the stabling of the horses, some little delicacy is bestowed, these animals will soon remember the time and place, and be thej-e with the regularity of a hen to her usual roosting place. Indeed, the appetite of animals for saline and alkaline relishes seems so natural and strong as to not only attract them to places where they once found them, but to resort to these places at any risk. Feeders of stock, of large observation, inform us that to mix salt and pure hardwood ashes in equal proportions of weight, combined by barely enough water to make of them a solid mass, become a most at tractive relish for all domestic animals. Farmers, therefore, should have several troughs or water-tight boxes at points where they wonld have their flocks and herds resort. These troughs or boxes should have an elevation suited to the convenience of the horse, ox, cow, or sheep, and thoy should be made a strongly fixed and permanent institution. It will be necessary to roof them carefully, so as to prevent rain and snow falling upon the mass; for if exposed to rain tha salt and ashes would immediately become an alkaline pickle. The solid mass of salt and ashes becomes particularly attractive to animals, because they can get it in very small quantities by diligent.licking. Care should, therefore, be observed in so blending and mixing the in gredients that a solid mass shall be formed, not easily broken by the animal or dissolved by the changing seasons. ' The experiment will cost the farmer, the dairyman, and the stock feeder but a trifle, and the advantages to their stock in health and punctuality with which they will come for their loved relish, will not only amply repay all the necessary labor,'care, and expense attending the preparation, but save many a vexatious tramp to bring home an-> imals which have been by various means enticed to wander.—Drovers' Journal. Blind Teeth in the Horse. Mr. N. C. Spurgeon, your card to tho editors of our valuable paper, tho Indiana Farmer, has been handed to me by them. You desire to know it wolf or blind teetli contribute to the destruction of the eye of the horse. My answer is, no, and I will say further that thousands of horses possessing perfect eyes may have wolf teeth, and no gouger punches them out. Indeed, it is not surprising that sueh ideas shonld prevail, and they will so continue while ari irresponsible, bold, ignorant set of fellows; calling themselves veterinary surgeons/ are consulted by owners of stock. So long will their stock suffer and their pockets bq emptied in vain. The fellows are not of one mind, however, upon the cause of blindness. For while one class punch out the teeth, another finds the cause in the cartilagenous bars to be found npon the internal surface of the ear, whose office is to stiffen the ear, just as the fibrous bars upon a cabbage leaf support the leaf. Another class pretend to discover a stiff nerve upon the nape ofthe neck posterior and-close to- the ear. This they blister. But the most dangerous theory of all is acid in some form, and if so it will injure that the haw, a very useful organ found in the inner angle or corner ofthe eye, must be cut out. This they call "cutting the hooks." A man guilty of perpetrating such an outrage should be made an inmate of the penitentiary for at least two years. All the advantage gained to an inflame* eye by the above operations cannot arnonil' to more than a little depletion, if much blood is drawn by the bungling operation. The common diseases of the eye will be found described in my book, Navin's Explanatory Stock Doctor, on pages 140 to 150, namely: opthalmia, conjunctavo,inflamma- tion of the haw cataract, amaurosis orgutta serene, palsy of the optic nerve, etc. My Stock Doctor can be crdered through the Indiana Farmer Co. John N. Navin. V. S. QUERY AND ANSWER. Editors Indiana Farmen Please let me know through the Farmer Where I can get three bushels good spring barley for seed, and oblige. C. F. L. Cass Co., March 5. ■—Who has it for sale? Editors Indiana Fanner: If any reader of the Farmer have the songs "Tears, Idle Tears," and "Little Nell of Narragansett Bay" with music, I would like to have their address through the columns of- your paper. Violet. Editors-Indiana Farmen M. C. S., of Parke county, says: He has both the Hong Kong and White China geese. The latter is as white as "snow. Both have knobs on the head. The Brown China or Hong Kong are much larger than the White China. Editors Indiana Farmer: Will some of your readers give a tried recipe foij coloring cotton carpet chain rags a bright red, green or blue, that will not fade? Also I should like to know if the air and sun will fade pink zephyr. - Palmer Ks. Mrs. J. M. E. J. H. McC., of Parke county, informs us that he has a surplus supply of orchard grass seed. He says this grass makes good hay and is the best pasture grass he knows of. A short advertisement in our "For Sale" column would bring him a number of orders for the seed. A. K. R., of Maimi county speaks very highly of a recipe for making cheap vinegar, which he has lately purchased. We presume this vinegar contains sulphuric Smut Poisoning. The Stuart Locomotive, of Stuart, Iowa, reports that Captain Charles Stuart, one of the largest farmers and most intelligent men in that county, having at least a thousand head of cattle to winter, felt deeply interested in the death of cattle by smut, and having . lost several head within 24 hours after turning fhem into the stalks, he concluded to test tbe matter in a practical way for himself. Selecting one of his thriftiest steers he yarded him by himself and fed him on smut, at the same time giving him plenty of salt and water. In just 24 hours from the time he commenced feeding the smut the steer died. He was immediately opened and upon examination, a large, hard ball of smut was found in his stomach, which was, without doubt the cause of his death. : ■*»■_■■*» ■ A Strange Case. Editors Indiana Farmer: Will you or some reader of your paper please inform me what is the matter with my cow? She is 28 months old, and dropped a calf six weeks ago. She appeared to do well, giving a good quantity of milk, and very rich, but just in two days time she went dry, or nearly so, and gives how about two spoonfuls . at a milking, and very thick looking-like matter. At the same time she is in apparently good health, Btill eating heartily. She is slopped twice a day as before, with a small quantity of salt with slop each meal. She has no appearance of hollow horn or hollow tail, nor not "much appearance of hollow belly. J. C. Mann. Sharp's Mills, March, 5. Endurance. While the threshers were at work on the Mayfield farm near Lemont, recently, a two-year-old heifer got penned in between two stacks of straw, and was soon entirely covered up. The owner soon missed her and commenced search, but did not find her until 47 days had passed. She literally ate her way out, with the assistance of a herd of cattle on the outside. When discovered she was hardly able to stand, but is now doing well. How she managed to survive the 47 days withont drink is a mystery.—Grand Rapids Democrat. The Farmer as an Advertising Medium. Editors Indiana Farmer: My advertisement in your paper bas overwhelmed me with orders and business. Please stop ituntil further orders. '** G. A. Danley. Indianapolis, March 11. Ihe coats of the stomach and do other damage/' He had better make vinegar from :good cider. It's slower but vastly better. ditors Indiana Farmer: I see in No! 9 an inquiry for Bronze tur- tey eggs,of pure stock. I have got them idarjre as any* in toejiountry. The sire of my gobbler weighed _\A poundsT *■'My* yearling gobbler weighs 34 pounds, and my hens weigh 17 to 21 pounds each. W. A. G. Newcastle, Henry Co., March 8. A Cure f6r Thumps. Editors Indiana Farmer: In answer to J. L. R., I recommend turpentine as a cure for thumps, but I cannot give the cause. W. B. K. March 10. Editors Indiana Farnier: . Where can Brazilian artichokes be had? And at how much per bushel? And where can pearl millet be had? And at how much per bushel, and will it grow to any profit as far north as Miami county? R. B. L. —Anyone having the articles asked for will do well to advertise them in our columns. A. P., of Koscuisko county also inquires for artichokes.—Eds. Editors Indiana Farmer: Please inform me through the columns of the Farmer when the new pension law goes into effect, and what and where are the proper authorities to apply to for a soldier's pension? Please let me hear from you? A Reader Mulberry, March 4. —The amended pension law is in operation now. Our correspondent will save time, trouble, and probably expense by getting an honest lawyer (if he can find one) to make his application in legal form. —Eds. Editors Indiana Farmer: If I were to build a self-supporting plank fence on my farm, and have never seen or heard of any fence like it, and there should be a patent on such a fence, what would be the consequence? Please answer in the Farmer and oblige J. I. R. —If your fence was an infringement on a patent, your not knowing that fact will not excuse you. The law presumes that everybody knows what is patented. The holder ofthe right, however, will likely let you off on easy terms, when he learns that there was no desire to defraud him.—Eds. Hay in the Mow. Editors Indiana Farmer: Please publish the following rule to measure hay in the mow, for the benefit of L. F., in March 1: Take the width, breadth and hight in feet, multiply them together and divide by 700. This will give the number of tons. This is for timothy hay well settled. If not well settled or clover hay, divide by 800. J. L. T. Newport, March 3. Orchard Grass. Editors * Indiana Farmer: In regard to orchard grass I would say the best way to sow the seed is on oats. After the oats'have been harrowed in, sow the seed and brush in. We always sow clover seed with our orchard grass, and cut it for hay tho first year, and after that pasture or cut for seed. I have about 100 bushels of seed for sale. A. B. Charlestown, March 3. Personal. Editors Indiana Farmer; Can any one of your many readers give me any information in regard to John L. Hamer, wllo entered into the service of the United States, a private in Company I, 99th Regiment, Indiana Infantry Volunteers. It is reported that he died in Anderson ville prison. Anyone knowing of his death and will communicate the same to me through the Indiana Farmer, I will compensate for all trouble, and be much obliged. Hoover, Cass Co. J. P. F. Self-Sucking Cows. Editors Indiana Farmer: Cows may be cured of the habit of sucking themselves by the use of two sticks long enough to reach from the butts of the horns to the back of the shoulders. Cut notches in both ends of the sticks and secure one end of each to the base of your cow's horns. Then pass a rope around her body just back of her fore-legs. .Fasten the other ends of the sticks to this rope by means of knots about midway of each side. I will pay for all the milk the cow gets when the above directions are followed. Labette, Ks., March 4. J. H. C. Ditching Machine. Editors Indiana Farmer: J. A., of Blackford county, in answer to the inquiry of M.T.,in last week's Farmer says there is such a ditching machine patented by parties in bis county that cuts a ditch eight inches in width and as deep as may be required; cuts sides and bottom smooth, also levels'up the ditch, and will, with two horses, cut from one to two hundred rods per day. It can be sold for §150. —If the Blackford county machine can do what J. A. claims for it, the proprietors would do well to advertise it in these columns. There is a large demand for a really good ditcher.—Eds. Manure. Editors Indiana Xarmen Will you please answer the following questions: How can I with the least ex- ptffi«je,''get-the -lost good this year fr6m about 50 wagon-loads of manure, now in the stable? Is there any way to rot a pile of straw in a short time? If so, what is the probable cost? Or how can I get the most good out of an old straw pile? N. B. Charlottesville, March 4. —The best way to get the most good out of your manure the present year would be to place it in the hill, if you are planting corn or potatoes, but this would be expensive. Probably your best plan would be to scatter it evenly just before breaking up the ground, and then harrow thoroughly. ' If you can get your straw well soaked with water, you may get some of it rotted in time for use this spring, but it is doubtful if it does much good except as a mulch for potatoes in case of a dry season.—Eds. estate of the deceased party. In short,would have none of the rights of a surviving husband or wife. Thoro is no law in the State preventing tho marriage of first cousins. Such marriages are legal. -Marriage. Law Questions Editors Indiana Farmer: If, as I have seen it stated, tho assertion in the presence of one or more respectable witnesses, of a man and a woman that they are husband and wife to each other, constitutes a valid marriage, why is a marriage license required, or what would be the result of marrying without it? Can first cousins legally marry in this State? Indiana. ANSWERED RY VINSON CARTER, ESQ., ATTORNEY. By the common law a marriage contract entered into by parties competent to contract, in the presence of one or more witnesses, and in words of the present, was a valid marriage; no license was necessary, and the presence of a minister or magistrate was not required. Such is still the law in those States where it has not been changed by statute. In Indiana the law has been changed by statute, and a marriage is not valid unless a license has been first issued by the clerk of the county, and the marriage soil mnized in the presence of some person authorized to solemnize marriages. A marriage under the circumstances mentioned in the question would simply be void in Indiana. There is one exception to this rule, and that is, members of the religious Society of Friends may solemnize marriages in accordance with tbe customs of such society without license and without the presence of an officiating minister or magistrate. A marriage which is valid in the State or country where solemnized, is valid everywhere the world over, so that if in the State of Kentucky, where the common law as to marriage is still in force, a man and woman should, in the presence of witnesses declare themselves to be husband and wife, such marriage would be valid, and if, on the next day, or at any time afterwards, they should remove into the State of Indiana they would still be lawfully married, and entitled to all benefits and protection of the laws of Indiana as "such husband and wife, but if the marriage had taken place under the same circumstances in the State of Indiana, it would be an illegal and void marriage, the issue of such marriage would be illegitimate, and in case of the death of either party, the survivor would not be entitled to any interest in tlie /, !.\ Legislative Summary.
