THS CA.TTLK DISEASE.
Tbs Drovers' Journal referring to the
late meeting of tbe natioual cattle ojtn
mission in Oh'.oauo, says tbat, Dr. E F.
Thayer, of West Ndwtou, Mass., as well aa
P/or. James Law, of Cornell University,
states freely tba'* suoh a disease as pteuro-
puaumoala did not exist among Western
catlle. Tuey say tbs disease is oontaglous,
but that all Investljuttou stiowa tbat it is
brought here bv foreign cattle. The far-
tbest plao» west where the disease bas
penetrated is Klmlra, N. Y., aud even at
t iat point there was but one case, while
thire are doubts even there that it was a
genuiue case of the dreaded disease.
;. Prof. Law is firm in tbe faith that the
disease la oontaglous, however,   and in

A.8 proving the f-tot the latter* says tbat
under the direction of the Givernor of
Massachusetts, stables thoroughly ventilated were built, and cittle some distino*
away caught tbe infection from the animals purposely introduced. The gentlemen oan not believe, that.either swill feed
ing or close quarters have the least to d..
with the disease, and would impress upon
the public that the only thing" to do in tbe
premises is to stop the probable spread
of an imported infection. Dr. Tbayer says
he has no ■•atlsttos npon wbich he might
state that any particular breed ef otttle
brought the pneumonia to this country,
but be considers it of the utmost importance that its ravages should be cheoked at
the earliest possible moment.

How Grass and Oraln are Wrought into. Beef,
fork and Button.
For some years p wt it has been fashionable in certain sobools of ditetio philosophy, to denounce tbe use of pork in most
unsparing term-*; and iareg*rd to a portion of the pork t tt ired in our market-*,
this denunciation is well deserved. Theie
is no animal whose iltiah is used for burn tn food, in whioh that 11 wh diff-rs in
quality, in diffirent animals so widely as
in the bog. In all animals, tbe flavor ol
tbe flash is modified by tbe kind of lood ou
which the ani trial haa beea fed. The reason
why all samples of baet and maltm are
more nearly alike than are samples of
pork,' is evidently because the range oi
diet in cattle and sheep ls much less than
in bogs.' Whether it should fl ttter us or
the hog, we will not say,- but it is tru
that the digestive and assimilative apparatus of tbe hog more closely resemt-les
thatof the human tban does the same or
gan of auy olh-ir animal. While cattlo
and sheep are stric-ly ruminants, yet tbey
m-iy be taught to eat slops, and a limited
r luge of otber foods that do uot require to
bertohewed. B.it toe hog is strictly omnivorous, aud Indulge! in a wider range
of diet, thau any otber animal, not even
eXaOptlng man. Wnlle he is at home on
grass, clover and otber green vegetables,
be relishes well grains of aU kind, nut**
aud Iruits of almost every dseoription, and
he eats with an evident appetite animal
fox), whether raw or cooked, and he is not
very fastidious about Its condition,
whether fresh or stale, he even learn <
to feast on garbage of the most revolting
kind and drink dWtllled slops lo an advanced stage of putresoenoe. In Bhort tha
pig shows mauy human traits in the
make up of his bill of rare, or perhaps we
should say, as he evidently takes prece-
dsnee or man in point of tim», that , we
bave many hoggish traits in dietics. But
it ia evident tothls wide range of food, we
must attribute the difference in samples ol
pork, at leaat chit fly.   Tu thia same oause

compliotted oharaoter of the diseases tbat
swine are   auijdc*. to.   A  knowledge  ot
•h<se facts C.iouId lead to great care in
feeding hogs, at least for tbe last three
months before they are slaughtered. I<
hogs are su timer fed on clover or othet
pastures, and allowed clean pure water to
drink, and afterward rapidly fatted oi
orn, tbeir flash will be as wholesome and
nutritious as any otheranimat food. Evei
a small portion ot flash, lt it is sweet and
fresh may be occasionally fed to fatting
bogs without injury to tbe pork, and
with tbe effect to increase their appetit*
tor grain. In transferring hogs from grasi-
to grain, the change should be gradual,
increasing dally tbe allowance of corn* till
the point is reached where they have a*
much grain as they will eat. The habit ot
feeding the garbage and wastes of the
kitchen to hogs, is of doubtful propriety'
even when fed to brood sows and pigs, but
to fatting hog?, such food is absolutely in
admlssable, if we would have pork fit to
eat. Ablgb grads of pork may be made
from tbe wastea of ills dairy if fed before
these become putrid. In abort, feed a ho»>
on food lit tor man to eat, and you will
bave pork fit* for human food. But much
of this pork (brown on the market should
bs condemned aa tinwholnnomn rood.
£FF£CT OF FEEDING Elf SILAGE.
Ojm thing seems to heprulty well -settled
about eukilage, and that js, the silo where
tt is preserved should be kept ss near air
tight as possible, in order that alcohol may
not generate. When thus kept, ensilage
is »iinply green food preserved iu itB gieen
state, jast as peaches and strawbenies are
preserved by canning and kept with their
native flavors. Like the latter, grass and
other green food when so preserved ln tbe
silo lose by evaporation little or none of
tbeir nutritive properties. Toe reader
knows by experience aad observation how
much larger per cant, of the nutrative
properties there is in bushel of peaches
wben lo tbe ripe, natural state tban wben
drit*d. Apply a bit of such common
sense to tbe matter of preserved green
animal food in the ensilage state, aud you
have comprehension af the whole matter,
aud tbus it Is a very easily understood subject. As said at first the one condition is
tbat tbe silo should bs bo nearly air tight
to forbid the generation of alcohol. 8 >me
one has suggested whether such ensifage
may with safety1 be fed to breeding anl
mats. A sufficient answer to snob reals i**,
may grass aud other green food in tbe natural state, be fed to such anlmaleT Ensilage when properly preserved is no more
nor less, aud no one need have feais ln this
regard auy more than when feeding such
green foods in their natural state.
Wben green food is cured in the ordinary way it-i aroma and certain of tbe nutritive properties are lost by evaporation;
lu ensilage these are saved', and heuce tbe
more vaiuab'e is the same quantity ol food
whensopreiented. The Aiden prooess of
drying liuit preserves these to a larger extent tban by any otber known process,
but all wbo have uied fruit ao dried know
very well lha. there is muoh  loss  even in

BllD-d Teeth.
Editor* Indiana Farmer:
My experience foncernlrg Mlrd teeth is
tbat every colt and mule ilat I have rained
for the last 15 y»are, has h»d blind teeth,
and every one I bat had theirteethitktn out
as i o m na the t*yes began lo water retained
their sight to old ȣ<>, and pvery oi.e tbat
did not have tbeir teeth taken out went
ollnd. Ir a colt dou't bave blind leeib. it
shows it has not been fed verv well. Tne
teeth oomes ou the upper jaw jnst Jorward
of the itrinders, and tbey Mime at fiom one
to tour years old. I bought a lour-year-old
mare tbat btdno blii dieetb, lutl-ad them
afterwards, nnd I trtdidlor a lour-year-old
mule tbat hud blind teeth, I don't know
how long but bis eyes were irjure.i by
them. 1 got tbem out in April and I
worked him all summer. Bis eyes spps-
rontly aU right, but along in the tall nis
• j oh began to water. I finally »tk lor a
reimdy through tbe Fa mm? I tried
wbat you jec< mmei.d< d *i d m\td tn« of
hia eyes. I priii the Veterinary Ddpart-
ment.oi yonr paper very Mvl'ly

It appears that the blind Uetii niintor-
tune, (rather scare) bas leen a source ot
annoyance to many. Allow us tosay to all
In kindness that woll teeth do not affect
