WINTERING STOCK. How To save in winter—Lumber Cheaper Than Hay and Grain. The crop of 1881 is grown, and the re mainder.ot it will soon be gathered. In most parts of this country, tlio summer drouth has reduced tho crop below the average of other years, and in somo sec tions this reduction amounts to an almost total failure. These facts give tho ques tion of the care of stock for the coming winter, an increased interest.- Tlie ha\ crop was, at least, a fair one, and in mam places it was a heavier yield than usual and the straw, which still makes up a con siderablo proportion of winter provender for cattlo in this country, was secured in an excellent condition, owing to the dry summer. In view of the whole premises we think there will be no scarcity of food for stock during the approaching winter, except in certain localities where the drouth was very severe. Rut we must not lose sight of the fact that fall pastures, at best, will be short, and in many places winter feeding has already begun. Tlio winter, in this respect, must, therefore be long, and indications point to a severe one. With this foreshadowing, it behooves everyone who has stock to winter, that he should provide proper shelter and protcc tion for the animals under his care. If pity for the poor unsheltered boasts, in the pelting storms of winter, has not moved him, in other years, to provide warm stabling, or at least a sheltering roof for his stock, let interest prompt him now to look to this matter. All our domestic animals must maintain a temperature between 90° and 100°, whatever may be the temperature of the surrounding atmosphere. This elevated heat must be maintained by tho consumption of food; and as wo diminish difference between the normal heat of the body and tho temperature of the outer air by providing stables with an intermediate temperature, we proportionally reduce the quantity of food necessary to maintain the animal heat. For example: If the outer air is zero, and that in the stable is 30°, then we have saved ono third of the heat-producing food required to maintain the animal temperature. In the cold rains and sleet of our winters, the saving is still greater, for then, an incalculable amount of heat is carried by evaporation. Farmers who, for the first timo, have tried the yankee project of stabling their stock, have often expressed their surprise at the saving of food, and the tine condition in which their stoclc came out in the spring. Lumber, or even brick and mortar are cheaper than grain and hay will be this winter. Remember that the tax for additonal food in out-door wintering must be paid every year, while the expense of comfortable stables, once paid is paid for years—perhaps for life. Tlie meaning of all this is—stable your stock —make them comfortable and save money. Hj^ Ilr1 THE IMFORT-D C-YDESn*AI*E "YOUNG WELLINGTON," OWNED IJY POWET.T.

Blue-grass improves on the same ground for a hundred years. The number of cattle reported in Texas for 1881 is 4,46-1,000 head, valued a^ 839,640,- 320. — —• There are more than twenty-five ranches in Texas which have each moro than 25,0*00 head of sheep. It is a great sheep state. Both for its effect upon fattening and upon health, a small amount of leeched wood ashes should be given to swine. The food without this is rich in phosphoric acid, but has little lime, and tho equiva- 'cnt should be thus supplied. Breaking Colts. One who writessensibly on this subject says: No man can master a colt properly who cannot control himself. Tliere is no mystery in education. Tho whole method is according to.law. . Rowards and punishments underlie just government. Beware of an improper punishment of a colt, as you would of a human being; for you must command respect if you would educate cither. Nor trifle nordeceive. When vou must draw tho whip to compel attention, remember to reward obedience with sugar, or some pleasing gift.

FATTENING ANIMALS. Sheep fatten most rapidly at two to threo years of age. By feeding rich fodder, one year old sheep will increase in weight more rapidly than when older, for the period of growth is not yot passed. Whilst they will fatten also at this ago, the flesh is not esteemed as when older, as it is more watery. Lambs taken very young and fed high are fattened and made palatable. But when fattened for profit as well as palatable flesh, sheep as of other animals, should be matured in growth first. It is also true that after animals havo become too old, neither profitable fattening nor the most palatable flosh can bo secured with the best of food. Whether for economy in feeding, or choice meat, tho best is attainable when the animal is well matured ; neither before, nor much after that period. ___^_^___________, you have occasion to uso them, for just what they mean; and the colt will soon obey them, and be proud of his knowledge. Be at all times considerate, kind; fair, and firm, remembering there is a limit to every sensitive organization. It does no harm to tire a colt, but never exhaust one. Groom well, after work, rather than before. ■ a » a SHEEP HUSBANDRY IN KANSAS. Laws Governing the Industry—Best Kind to Handle. Written for the IndianaFarmer: There is perhaps no industry attracting moro attention than that of sheep raising, and especially in this State. Not only are those living here, men of moderate means tvirning their attention to it, but men of larger capital from this and different parts of the country, are extensively engaged in grazing and putting out sheep; and many more are making inquiries as to the advantages of this State, and the probabilities of success. As the industry is comparatively in its infancy; some information in regard to the advantages of Kansas, may be of interest to some of your many roaders. • It is presumed that all business men engaging in an enterprise, count well the probabilities of failure as well as the possibilities of success. Yet many amateurs, figure out a fortune on paper, with much m6re case, than can be done by actual demonstration; and while sheep raising in Kansas to many is proving a. profitable enterprise, it is also a demonstrated fact that "eternal vigilance," and hard work are the "price of success." SOME ADVANTAGES. Somo of the advantages Kansas possesses over other sections are its geographical location, its dry rolling prairies, and its vast extent of fine grazing lands. And one of the best evidences of its superior advantages is the fact that many of tho old wool growers of Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, are coming here with their flocks. The increase from 1879 to 1880, was 114,000, and while I have no figures from '80 to '81, I think I ean safely say it will not be much short of 150,000. LAWS GOVERNING THEJ INDUSTRY. The laws of the State are such that any one can prevent diseased sheep from being brought in or being grazed within the State. "The only disease, however, that sheep seem subject to, is the "scab," a disease easily overcome by care and attention. The mortality for tho year ending March 1880, was less than three per "cent.," Which with care could have been reduced to one. Many ask the question, what is the BEST KIND OF SHEEP to raise, and where tho best place to locate. Tho hardiest sheep and the most profitable kind for wool-growing is conceded to be tho Merino. Thoy aro less liablo to disease, and herd better in large bodies. Cotswolds and Southdowns scatter more and do not do well in large numbers. Many with small means use the common stoc-H and grade up with Merino bucks; tho third cross being the most profitable for shearers. Tho common stock of sheep from Arkansas and Missouri aro among tho best unless it be those from the Eastern states. The Colorado and Mexican sheep are tho most likoly to be diseased and much harder to breed up from. Tho Merinos can bo bought from §3 to %3 50 per head, while the common, run from ?2 to ?2 50. Many tako them on tho shares, getting ono-half the increase and half the wool. As to location, that depends largely •an one'sown judgment. Yet some sections tions appear better adapted than others. Among the best counties may bo mentioned Cowley, Coflee, Butler, Elk, Greenwood, Jackson, Lyon, Mitchell, Osburn and Russell; although many others are fast filling up. In most, if not all of theso counties, the grazing is on public or vacant lands which are freo to any who may come, a very important item to the grazer. E. H.W. [Concluded next week.] A Cow's Cud. The situation, the structure and the size of the rumen or paunch point it out as tho first and general receptacle for tho food, which receives in the mouth only sufficient mastication to enable tho animal to swallow it. When swallowed it is then received by the rumen, and morsel after morsel is taken until this, tho first of the animal's four stomachs, is comparatively full. A sense of repletion precedes rumination, during which act tho animal generally prefers a recumbent posture. - It is not to be supposed that all the food taken is again ruminated; It is only tlie bulky or solid portions that undergoe tlie process. When the rumen is moderately full, it will contract on its contents, and'first squeeze out the fluid portions, which will pass into the third and fourth stomachs, whilo the solid part will bo embraced by the oesophagus, or stomach pipe, and returned to the month. Ily the term "loss of the cud" is meant a cessation of the chewing of the cud, which occurs as a symptom of most internal diseases of cattle. she stands up it swells. I want to know what will take off that enlargement, and keep it from iwelllng. Morgantown. J. P. c. You waited too long, and I think yon must endure tbe effect ot your neglect. Why did you not attend to it before it became chronic? Editors Indiana Farmer: An eye of one of my mules for about four weeks has been sore. The lids are Inflamed.

Take an egg, break one end; pour out the albumen, mix ln salt enough to make a stllT paste, set among clear coals and burn to a char; cool and grind fine and blow through a quill, or put in the eye once dally. Editors Indiana Farmer: I have a mare that had the distemper lest May. She did not cough much nor run at the nose very much. Her glands swelled very badly and a hard lump formed on the right side of the glands. I had lt lanced, and It run a thick matter and still continues to run.

Of course the pulse goes down before death. Please write plain. scholars of all the land? He was known abroad as one of the great scholars of the . Republic. But, scholar as he was, he was never narrowed by technical knowledge, but was enlarged by it.* His learning made him more and more the friend of popular institutions and a plain man. Nothing delighted him more than tho society of plain men and especially farmers. General Harrison: I don't think I have ever seen anything that honored him more than the affecting manner in which he received to the White House, and presented to its most distinguished guests, the plain old mother who had reared him. There was no place of hiding for her but in the reception rooms ofthe White House, and on his arm with her he met the representatives of the nations abroad and the highest of his own land. His relations to his wife and children were exceedingly tender and kind. It was his habit at the tablo to make the table converse instructive; to introduce historical matters; to lead his children to talk about them, and to tell them of them, as they sat about the board. Hon. II. W. Thompson: His heart overflowed with genuine benevolence, aud Christian charity. His sympathies were never invoked in vain. lie was generous to all—unkind to none. There were beautifully mingled in his heart all the virtues which spring from love of home, family, friends and country. In public life he bore his honors with becoming meekness, and never forgot that it was his duty to serve the whole people with unselfish in tegrity. Extracts from addresses on the late President Garfield, by the clergy of this city: Rev. N. A. Hyde: I feel that God by this strange providenee is calling the attention of tho world to tl o plain, simple and manly virtues—the lessons of industry, self-reliance, incorruptible integrity. of faith in God, in His providences. God grant that good may come out of this great evil. Generations to come may learn the lessons of loyalty to man, to the laws of God, which this life lias so beautifully illustrated. Rev. II. A. Edson: He had no greed for oflice, though he had a strong man's ambition. He let tho oflice seek him out. It will be acknowledged by those who were opposed to him that ho had no rancor uuder his tongue, for he left Congress as he left College, without the possibility of an enemy. We loved the President. He was the ideal man. If it has eluded us it did not elude him. We can learn the lessons of his life and teach them to our children. The speaker closed by reading an extract from an English Journal, expressive of tho sympathy felt beyond the Atlantic. Rev Myron W. Reed: I do not feel so reconciled as I expect to feel in the course of time. It did seem to me as though wo needed this man and must have him. I do not feel reconciled to the deep damnation of his taking off. My judgment tells me here that that assassin ought to have a fair trial under the law, and be convicted in due course, but I must confess to you friends as I stand here, it would be inexpressibly sweet to me to hear that he was dead, and that is the way the heart works and the judgment works. And the whole of this Nation no doubtfeels just that way. Rev. Geo. L. Curtiss: It has made a better people, holier people, more religious and united people than we could have been without the prayers. I love to tell my boys the story of this man's life. I shall like to use it as an illustration of what can be accomplished in the midst of the greatest adversity. I shall try to impress it that it is a blessing to' bo bom and reared, to live aud labor and die in a country that can produce such men. His influence in his family relations, to his mother, wife and children, poes to show that there was something in that heart that liad been touched by the power of divine grace, that led him to feel that a mother, aged and feeble, was one of the richest blessings. Editors Indiana Farmer: A friend of mine has a two-year-old colt which has a swelling on her withers; flrst noticed at about two weeks ago. Is larger now than when first noticed. Does not seem to be sore. What is the matter and what will cure It? A Reader. The colt I suppose has fistula. Blister It severely. If matter Is formed lt must be treated for fistula. Editors Indiana Farmers: How can I get of rid ticks that infect sheep andlambsT They aTe very, troublesome this season. Especially no on the lambs. A. R. Pennville, Jay Co. Take a pound of tobacco; boll in one gallon of water; apply lt on the affected parts; get above them ; apply with a sponge; use it only oa one side. Next day on the other, else you may kill your sheep. Editors Indiana Farmer: My mare broke through the ice List spring and hurt her leg. Was lame 10 or 12 days; then got over her lameness, but her leg remained big from her knee down. Just a shade larger than theotherone. Wh*u THE PRESS ON THE MARTYK PRESIDENT. We select extracts from the mauy eulogies upon our late beloved President, by the press, Senators and others: Indianapolis Journal: In Garfield we at last had in the presidential chair a man who seemed born for it. He knew tbo common people and their wants; for he was one of them, and had arisen from abject poverty—a poor, friendless boy. yet his culture was extraordinary, his scholarship almost erudition. His political career was just that needed to prepare him for the presidency. Chicago Tribune: All classes and grades of men felt themselves honored in having this genial and accomplished gentleman, conceded to bo ono of the leading statesmen of his age, known as the President of the republic and ohosen by the free will of tho American people. It is not surprising, therefore, when such a President, thus honored, cherished and respected by the whole people, eaeh claiming a share in his greatness, was stricken down, that the blow was felt in every household and in every heart. OTHER TRIBUTES. Senator Yoorhees: The kindness and his mental activity were his leading traits. In all his intercourse with men, women and children, no kinder heart ever beat in human breast than that which struggled on until 10:30 o'clock Monday night, and then forever stood still. Senator Mc Donald: I watched his course in the nail of the House of Representatives, and can truly say of him that with all of his great ability—and it was great—his goodne ss of heart went hand in hand with his ambition. I do not believe when he closed his career in tho House of Representatives that he had one single enemy with whom he had come in contact in public life. Gov. Porter: He was a great scholar. Is it not singular that this l>oy, born to poverty, that had to trust to his own exertions from the beginning, that had no aid and asked for none, should become one of the greatest and most illustrious THE CINCINNATI EXPOSITION. This great exposition of the improvements the country has made in mechanics and the arts, is one of the established institutions of the Queen city. Tho present is tho ninth exhibition and the people seem to flock to it with as much enthusiasm as to any of its predecessors. We made a visit there on Monday of last week, and found enough to interest and instruct for as many days as we had hours to spare. The floral display has never been excelled perhaps in the West. Many rare and curious plants we had not seen before were exhibited, and the large space reserved for this department was fully occupied. The display of musical instruments was large and magnificent. Handsome goods and wares and elegant and costly jewelry abounded on tho main floor of the central building. In the spacious room on the north were the agricultural implements and machinery of various kinds, but hardly so large a display as on former years. The picture galleries were fully filled and contained many fine pieces. Fine pottery ware was in large display and greatly admired. But probably the chief attraction was the large and exceedingly interesting natural history collections, including the extensive list of casts from Messrs. Ward & Co., of Rochester, New York. Included in this was the gigantic elephant of prehistoric ages, a skeleton of a baby whale, etc. In tho same room were several large" cases of minerals from Colorado, Montana, etc., containing the finest specimens of the kinds we have soen anywhere. A visit to this exposition will always repay the cost and trouble. Great griefs are the medicines lesser sorrows.—Shakspeare.
