Subjoined you will find a statement of income from 22 head of fine Cotswolds. I now have seven head of fine ewe lambs more than I had last year, these I have not sold. I had thirteen lambs, two of which were l*uck lam ds. I sold four of my old ewes. This accounts for the seven ewe lambs Instead of 11 (which I really have) as I substituted four yofing ewea for the four old onfa2 sold.

BECKBTl, ' Aanwa, Indiana. Sheep Husbandry. Editors Indiana Farmer: Having seen in the Farmer accounts of the profits from small flocks of sheep, I will give my experience. I started one year ago last December with 32 head of good common sheep, for which I paid $10-4. Raised 30 lambs from 22 ewes. I sold 26f* pounds of wool for ?80; seven sheep, ?37. I have no w 50 head worth J200. Total, J317; fli-st cost, 8104, leaving a balance of §213. I had five die during the time. Clinton Co. J. D. Vail, < **- s* , Bheep. Editors Indiana Farmer: Will some one who has experience please inform me through the Farmer whether sheep will thrive on clover pasture? also bow many sheep one acre of good average pasture will support thoughout the season. Millvllle, Ohio. J.J. O. heavily by dogs killing their sheep. WHO your permission I wish to submit to th,j readers of your valuable paper a few figures from my township book as regards tho same. The value of sheep killed by dogs from April 10, 1878, to this date was JJ-523. Of tbat amount sheep to tbe value of ?:S 11 were killed by hounds, and to the value of $127 50 was killed by pointers aud bird dogs. The value of sheep killed by dogs not known was $51 60. Of the above amount, sheep to the value of J422 50 were killed by dogs from adjoining townships, and ofthe value of $49 was killed by dogs of onr township, and of the value of $51 50 by dogs not known. The adjoining townships that furnished tbe dogs to kill the sheep for farmers of my township have a surplus dog fund that their trustees are turning over to their tuition funds, adding the value of sheep killed by dogs not known to tbat of those killed by dogs ofour township, we would have$100 50,uot being one-fifth of the value of sheep killed in tbe township. By my observation I don't think tbat a l»w to protect sheep raising will be a sue cess unless it applies to a oounty instead of a township. A law, with the present rate of dog tax, if applying to an entire county, would be a success, I think, as all would then have an equal chanoe. Without such a law farmers of small townships have to suffer the loss of sheep killed by dogs from the large adjoining townships. With the Jaw applying to the entire county alike, a farmer having sheep killed by dogs should have the sheep appraised by Bworn appraisers and file his claims within ten days after the killing of sheep with the trustee of his township, the trustee to present the claim the same as tbe township poor bill, to the county commissioners and draw the amount from the county treasury; and at the expiration of the year any dog tax money remaining in the treasury might be applied by the oounty auditor to the tuition school fund. Trcstke. Wayne oounty, Ind. *>-»*. To Keep Dogs at Home and Hake Them Useful. Editors Indiana Farmer: The greatest vexation a-farmer submits to is paying taxes on a dog and running after the pigs himself while the dog is visiting. Ten years ago we reformed, bought a new pup, found him visiting at eight months old, caught him, slipped his head through a crack in the rail fence, castrated him, and thereafter found him at home. He lived six years, and was the most vigilant dog I ever knew. He was of bull blood, and strong. He killed, unaided, 13 tresspassing dogs, which were kindly embalmed afterwaid in tho waste lime heap. • Since thon I caMrato all dogs. I am interested in It, and consder It best for me and my neighbors. I havo never noted undue alugglabneSss follow tho operation. I have killed proud sluts after sheep. I think tbey are a leading cause in sheep killing. My only regret has been that castration makes dogs so good. I want more The woight of one of my Chester White pigs, killed at eight months old, was 311 pounds, net. Jacob Rager. Williams Co., Ohio. ^dcrinarjr* This department is eeilted by IJr. John N.

Parties deslrlnganswers by mall must enclose a stamp. Scab. Editors Indiana Farmer. I have somo yearling calves that are affected with a scab, commencing around the eye and spread Iuk over the head. I first noticed it about two months ago; at first it looked only dry and harsh, but now seems to be raw in places. A. B. C. Rub parts affected twice per day with tincture of iodine. Bruised Lumps. Editors Indiana Former: Some timo since I asked for information to remove bruised lumps on horses' feet. I followed tho directions closely, and his feet wero, as I thought, all right, but he took cold in one foot and 1 am failini; to heal the sore. Please toll me what to do to heal it. A Reader. Take sulphate of zinc and four ounces of water in vial and apply onco or twice per day. Calloused. Editors Indiana Farmer What shall I do for my colt? Two months ago its -hind leg swelled badly from the hoof above pastern joint; it broke and run some. I poultioed it, and it is healed up, but tho swelling remains, and it is hard and calloused. I have tried several remedies. Can a callous be removed without injury? H. P. Yes, a calloused enlargement can be removed with the knife, but your country veterinarfes cannot do it safely. Have yon blistered it? See recipe for blister in this issue of the Farmeb. Blister. Editors Indiana Farmer: ,1 haVe a neighbor that wants me to ask you what ails his horse, and what he shall do for him. He snagged himself three or four months ago,' near the hock-joint. Ic swelled up very much, so mucu so that when ho got down he could not get up for a number of days, and while down he bruised one of his knees very badly, so much so that it gathered around the joint and baa broken in a nnmber of places. Both joints are very much swollen, and continues to discharge matter. A. C. C. Blister the knee and hock with canthar- idep, one ounce; spirits of turpentine, one pint; rub on with the hand twice per day for five days, then once per day; rub only Yellow Water. Editors Indiana Farmer: Can yon let us know the best remedy to cure '-yellow water" in horses? That is the namo the people here call it by. The blood turns into water. Nearly every horse wa*j s fleeted here iu the past fall. F.H. Take bloodroot, pulv. niter, ilonr of sulphur, black antimony, and sulphate of iron aad resin, of each two ounces; ground ginger, lour ounces; mix. Dose, one teaspoonful three times daily in chop or mill feed. Ticks. Editors Indiana Farmer Please tell us what will free onr sheep from ticks, and keep them free. A Reader. Make a weak solution of tobacco oozs; take a quarter of a pound of common tobacco and boil in one quart of water. This will kill them, but beware that you don't kill the sheep. Put on in patches at a time, or make it weak. Rod precipitate and lard will kill any vermin, on parts where the animal cannot lick tbe poison ofl. Query. Editors Indiana Farmer: What shall I do for my call? It was taken with tho colic in the first place. I doctored it and it got better, but has lost tho use of both hind legs. It has been down eight days. T. H. W. It is impossible to know what keeps your calf down, whether its back is sprained or his limbs, etc. You must point out the parts affected before a remedy can be prescribed. I fear you have given too much diuretic medicine, and that it inflamed its kidneys. If you know that its hind legs are aflected, they may be paraljzsd. Blister any part you find affacted. Sprained. Editors Indiana Farmer: Please tell me what ails my oolt. I have a maro colt that will be three years old in tho spring; bave worked ber some. About 15 days ago she got to standing on the toe of her right foot, with tbe fet-lock joint bent forward; no fever in it; not swollen; don't make her lame. When she first commenced standing on hor toe, for two mornings she seemed stiff in her leg; when I wonld back her she would throw hor leg out to one side; cords wonld jerk when bent; after a few steps she would walk all right. G. 8. Your colt has a sprained tendon, or grog- gihess, a contraction of the perforans tendon,- if you find the part affected, blister severely, and excuse from all exercise. Warbles. Editors Indiana Farmer: I have a yearling calf that is getting very thin in flesh, although it eats very heartily all the time. Its back seems to be literally covered with warbles; hair is rough and loug. Subscriber. Your calf is not impaired in its constitution by warbles (botts); those are inserted by a fly, as botts of another genus are in the stomach of the horse, and yet another in the nostrils of sheep. Neither do any injury if left alone till matured. Injury, however, may be, and ia often done, in trying to remove them. If you force them out by placing a finger on each side of fall-grown cows have been killed. They will come out when matured. Give your calf the following: Bloodroot, flour oi sul- pher, pulverized niter, black antimony, sulphate of iron, of each, two ounces; ground ginger, four; mix. Dose, one rounding teaspoonful three times daily, in cut, chop or mill feed. Indigestion. Editors Indiana Farmest I want to ask a question about a disease that ls affecting the cattle here. Symptoms first are constipation, and have lever; are restless for a while, then commence gnawing and licking their tails and hips; soon rub themselves raw; keep pounding and rubbing for two or three days, and die something like mad Itch. E. P. C. Your cattle died of indigestion (mad Itch). You must be allowing them to eat dry cornstalks, or cutting up cornstalks too near the lower end, and mixing them with bran or meal to induce them to eat the sapless stuff; or you may be feeding them oil-cake liberally, which in large quantities is indigestible. This I assert independent ofthe sarcasm of oil-mill proprietors, and the shipping to England of the unhealthy stuff, Of course if fed sparingly it will take a long time to destroy digestion. Nothing, however, is more certain than that they have recourse to some food out of which the essential oil is pressed or never had any oil in it. Woody fiber of any kind is indigestible in large quantities; the only remedy is to pour down purgative oil plentifully into the rumen, viz.; eastor or linseed.or both. Glanders. Editors Indiana Farmer About a month ago my neighbor's horse began to lail in health; pulse at a low rate; breathing natural; standing attitude droop- * lug; appearance of hair, bad. During last Bummer a lump as large as a hen's egg was discovered between, his jaws, about six inches above the lower extremity, which was supposed to be a snake-bite; was worked all summer and fall, and seemed in good health, but now the glands on the lelt Bide, between the jaws, are enlarged, and tbe Bald lump still remaining, constitutes part, or the entire, enlargement of the glands. Secretions from note at the first stage of disease, was of thick yellow, but now of a dark bloody matter. Breathing rapid and loud, breath very offensive to smell, rate of pulse high. Tbe animal is in a miserable condition. The country doctors here call it the epizootic and lung fever combined. M. J. F. Tell your country doctors that catarrh fever (epizootic) and lung fever combined, wouldn't allow a horse to Jive one month, and further, that the two diseases do not combine; that catarrh fever may run into pneumonia aud kill the animal inside of a week, If not ln three days. Your horse has every symptom ot glanders, if your pathology is correct. Be careful of his contact with other stock.and with persons in the family. You had better have him examined by a veterinary of some skill. Siok Sheep. Editors Indiana Farmer I have a lot of sheep tbat are heavy with Iamb, Borne of which are sick. They stand around for a few days, and when down they have to be helped up; eat nothing, and finally cannot stand When helped up, and then soon die. T, E. H, I suppose the weakness is tbe result of inaction, this being a very unusually stormy winter, animals with young are greatly injured for want of exercise; your human physician will tell you the same. I have known mares and cows to be lost by being confined too long, also sowe; all animals in a state of pregnancy need exercise in the open air, for two reasons. First, the lungs must have exercise to keep them in healthy action; second, the blood must come in contact with the oxygen contained in tho atmospheric air for tbe purpose of decarbonizing the blood; thus if the blood is healthy so is the animal; of course there are other cause3 of ill health; exorcise, however, is out of the question for thoso already sick. Take carbonate of ammonia, half an ounce; flour of sulphur, ground niter, bloodroot and blaok antimony, ol each two ounces; ground ginger, four ounces; mix. Dose, one rounding teaspoonful threo times dally in feed; add a spoonful of ground flax-seed. one-half found the limb for ten days, thenthem, you may kill your calf, as many In Florida the value per acre of cleared land is $9 48, and of timbered land S3 03. In Iioufsiana cleared land is woith $14 36, and timbered land $3 53. Iu Texas cleared land is worth $8 98, and timbered $4. In Arkansas cleared land is valued at $11 78, and timbered land at S3 48. In Oregon cleared land is worth $21 71, and timbered $4 50. But in Neoraska cleared land is worth §8 92, aad timbered $25 85 per acre. A farmers' convention at San Francis- co[on lfst week resolved to farm a wheat growers' association for California, for mutual aid and protect!' n against middlemen. The establishment of an agency at Liverpool for, freights and commissions is intended. I

Thb American Hnina.no Association announce that it will be sometime yet beiore
they oan make any announcement of
awards on the "improved cattle-car" prize,
offered some time ago. They have received
over one hundred models and specifications, and it will require considerable time
to make examination of patents already issued on similar inventions, and to put the
specifications in shape to be submitted to
the judges appointed to examine the
models on hand. The high character of
tbe gentlemen composing the association
is abundant guarantee that everything
will be conducted in the most honorable
manner. Those who sent models without
pre-paying express charges will find their
models at express offices in Chicago undelivered. It was expressly provided that
pre-payment should be made on all sent.
