Founder of Horses.
A correspondent of the Country Gentleman says: Founder is acute and
chronic. In an acute case, unless the
cause is superpurgation, give a moderate
purgative, with injections of warm water
and soap. The shoes should be taken
off, and the patient stood in a clay puddle up to the fetlocks. If the fever is
high, give ten drops of Fleming's tincture
of aconite, with half an ounce of tincture
of belladonna, in a little water, every
three or four hours as required. Some
advocate bleeding, others oppose it; for
my own part, I nave been exceedingly
successful without it. Even local bleeding is rarely advisable. After the physic
has operated, give one drachm of nitrate
of potash three times a day in the mash,
for a week. The patient should stand in
the clay for four hours daily during the
week; afterwards have heavy rocker
shoes applied, and have a run at grass in
* moist pasture, dressing his hoofs with
hoof ointment. If pain remains after
this, blister around the coronet.
For chronic   founder,   a long  run at
grass, the application of hoof ointment
regularly, application of the rocker shoe
with a leather sole, stuffed with tar and
* tow, with repeated  blisters around the
l coronet and as high up as the fetlock, are
J the means offering the best prospects of
■ success.
THE FINE LAMBS.
Editors Indiana Farmer:—I am glad
to seethe spirit there is manifested inthe
lamb business, and it has been no small
amount of pleasure to me to see the different accounts of weights, and compare
them, and after comparing them I still
feel proud of my own lambs, to know
that they are not left in the distance, but
still are coming on close in line with the
rest of reported lambs. As to the weights
of my lambs, the are as follows: No. 1,
at 125 days old, 100 pounds; No. 2 at 110
days old, 100 pounds. Eight of my oldest lambs averaging 100 days weighed 77J
pounds each; 12 aged ewes average 114
pounds; 1 imported yearling 114 pounds;
1 imported sucking lamb 100 pounds. A
Fairbank stock scale was used in weighing. Now these sheep were all weighed
on this day and witnessed.
I think there is more interest manifested than any one had any reason to'hope
for on the lamb weighing question, and
it will no doubt call out a closer range of
breeding and handling of the long-wooled
sheep, as it is clearly manifested in what
has been said in connection with the
lambs reported, that each and every one
either claimed or hoped at least to have
the best of all, but when there is a general report made it reaches many a good
lot of lambs. So we find that the solution of the whole matter is self-evident,
and that is this: if .people are careful to
raise the be3t of lambs they of course will
in return get for their trouble the best of
sheep, which will insure them" the best
of pay and profit. So, in the language
of others, "trot out your big lambs," and
let us still go on in the way of progress
and improvement.
Hoping to hear from other reporters, I
close. Levi D. Brown.

Show ef fine Stock in Parke County,
Indiana.
Editors Indiana Farmer:—Mr. Wm.
Swain, proprietor of the Bellmore Stock
Stables, proposes to have a show of colts
from his celebrated premium horse Ham
bletonian, and his excellent English draft
horse! Black Farm Boy. He proposes to
give premiums on the colts as follows, viz;
Colts from
Hamiltonian, 1st premium, 820.00
2d "        12.00
3d "           f
Colts from
Black Farm Boy, 1st premium, $15.00
2d        "          10.00
" 3d       "            5.00
Mr. Swain has offered premiums that
will be of some consequence to those having colts, and as he and his stock are widely known we think it ought to be pretty
generally known, particularly as stock is
brought here from far and near to be
bred. It has been his custom for several
years past to have a show of colts and
give premiums. On such occasions there
is always a display of colts that does the
eye good to behold, and is the cause of a
large gathering.
There is an arrangement among quite
a number of hog breeders to have a little
show of stock in their line at the same
time and place, and as enough have al
ready signified their intention to be here
with their stock, success is already insured to them.. It is the arrangement for
all that want to compete for premiums
to pay a fee of one dollar, the same to be
applied as premiums. Just how they
will be classified is not yet certainly arranged, only that each breed of hogs will
be classified separately. Now, if the outside world don't believe we have some
good colts and hogs hereabouts, let them
come and see. So far as the show of pigs
and hogs is concerned, it is open to all.
The show of all this stock will be held on
August 12th. E. Thomas.

HOW TO HAVE HEALTHY PIGS.
Prof. Law, of Cornell University, in a
communicationjto the Husbandman writes
as follows in regard to the proper treatment of swine for the prevention of diseases: "Keep your hogs clean. Protect
them from the hot, reeking bed of ma
nure and close sleeping-place, where the
emanations from decomposing dung,
urine, straw, and other organic matter
are added to those of their own skins and
lungs when huddled together in great
numbers. See that both food and water
are clean, in the sense of being free from
disease germs and from the microscopic
particles of decomposing organic matter
which, within the system as well as outside it, furnish appropriate food for the
disease, poison and favor its increase,
while they depress the vital powers and
lessen the chances of the virus being
thrown off. No less important is the
purity ofthe air, since the delicate membrane of the lungs, perhaps more than
any other, furnishes an easy mode ol
entrance for any injurious external matter. Finally, purity of the blood can
only be maintained by a healthy funct
ional activity of all the vital organs, which
insures the perfect elaboration of
every placid constituent of blood, and
the excretion of all waste matters that,
have already served their purpose in the
system. By perfect cleanliness the poison,
even if generated or introduced, will be
virtually starved out,* as surely as an
army in a closely besieged fortress. But
it will be observed that this implies the
separation of Bound from diseased animals; and the free use of disinfectants
(solutions of sulphate of iron and chloride of lime, fumes of burning sulphur,
<fec.) to purify the air and over surroun-,
ding objects as well as the simple clearing away of filth. And it is here that the
Eork-raisers are most frequently at fault,
fty or a"hundred pigs are allowed to
crowd to geather in a filthy bariij subjected to the droppings of other animals as'
well as their own products. Their feeding troughs and drinking water are so
spplied that they can get into them with
their filthy feet, and they must devour
the most obnoxious matter or starve. If
under this abuse disease is developed, the
healthy are left with the sick as they will
all have it anyway,' and the result is
usualy a clean sweep. When hog cholera
exists, the sick should be placed by themselves under a special attendant, under
the free use of disinfectants ; the healthy
should be carefully watched, and on the
first sign of illness or increased temperature, ascertained by the introduction of
a clinical thermometer into the rectum,
they should be at once taken from the
herd and carefully secluded. This, with
active disinfection, will enable the owner
to cut short an outbreak and save perhaps
the great majority of an already infected
herd. Again, the sale of of animals from
an infected stock, to be moved from the
premises alive, should be severely punished, and the disinfection of the. buildings
where the sick have been should be made
imperative. We shall obtain the greatest
success with this disease when we treat it
as a contagious malady, and wherever it
is found to exist give our main attention
to prevent the further generation and dissemination of the poison."

FOULS IN SHEEP, ETC.
LETTEE  FROM   WELLS  COUNTY.
The Country Gentleman says: In hot
showery weather, sheep (Merinos) are
liable to a disease ofthe foot, called "fouls."
Unless this be cured before the formation
of pus in the cleft of the hoof, it sometimes is apparently contagious, and the
flock becomes considerably, affected. In
this case the usual remedies for "foot
rot" are required to cure the flock. The
farmer who daily sees his flock is apt to
notice whether any sheep is lame, and if
any such case is noticed, the suffering
animal can . be cured without handling
the flock, or even, if the farmer is a skillful shepherd, without taking the flock to
a pen, or .disturbing any except the ailing
sheep. A little vial of salve can be carried in the pocket when visiting the
sheep pasture, and a single application
will cure an attack of fouls, if given when
the sheep first' becomes lame. In order
that there may be as much interest taken
by the sheep in the visits ofthe owner, as
by himself, it will be found a good plan
to carry a little salt and give it to them at
each visit. Sheep like a little salt every
day, and any farmer of ordinary intelligence will soon learn how much to feed
them at once so that they will be ready
for a repetition of the dose the next day.
This plan creates a perfect mutual understanding between the sheep and their
owner, and they soon become so tame
that he can catch and examine any one
of the flock without frightening the remainder. Some advise feeding a little
sulphur with-the daily salt, or perhaps
once a week, to prevent foot rot and expel ticks. Several seasons' experience
in this practice showed the uselessness of
expecting any such results from feeding
sulphur. The foot rot has proved as virulent and the ticks as prolific when the
sheep had sulphur weekly as where none
was fed. The fact that a tick will live in
a vessel containing sulphur until it dies
of starvation is proof sufficient that that
drug is not poisonous to ticks.

Texas Cattle for Northern Marketi.
The Kansas City Price Current has advices that the grand total of Texas cattle
driven, to July 6, is 305,290 head. Of this
number 50,638 head have been held in
Northern Texas, while the remainder,
254,652 headKhave been driven north.
Several thousand hea'd, which were wintered in Northern Texas last leason, were
also driven north, which will probably
swell the total to between 260,000 and
270,000 head.
NEBRASKA AHEAD.
The truth will at last be sure to prove itself.
No yonng State has had more falsehoods to
fight against than Nebraska. She is showing
herself, however, to be the banrier State of
our bread raising country. Last year she had
a fair wheat crop, and the finest corn crop in
the whole West.
This year the wheat, barley, oat, and corn
crop of Southern Nebraska, will lead any
other section of country. A splendid crop of
the finest wheat and barley is now being harvested; oats are ready for cutting, and the
corn crop is in splendid condition, and nearly ready for ear-out.
The enormous advances in the price of land
that we have all witnessed in Illinois and
Iowa, will shortly be repeated in Nebraska.

Bluffton, July 15th.
To the Editors of. the Indiana Farmer•'_[•
A county that is out of debt these hard
times may be set down as being well-to-
do, if not rich. This county -has this
good fortune. Then aa will be seen, it is
rich in soil, timber,'and general improvements, and only pays taxes to the amount
of $90,687. The area of the county is
372 square miles, divided into nine townships, all of which present rich aspects of
soil, and produce 'wheat, corn, etc., in
remunerating abundance.. The wheat
product of 1874, amounted to 177,879
bushels and the corn crop to 1,003,631
bushels. It is claimed that this vast
amount of corn was turned into hogs instead of whisky. Such economy is commendable. About one-half of the county
is still covered with fine forests.
TWO rivers.
The Wabash & Salamonie rivers both
pass through the county, giving extensive
and fertile bottom and affording endless
quantities of superior building and limestone rock. As Professor Cox has never
taken a survey of the county, it is not
yet known what other geological resources it possesses.
good sheep law.
In the protection of sheep from the
ravages of dogs their chief reliance, we
learn, is in the virtue of lead and strychnine. They are cheap and easy to be
had, without legislation, or law suits.
19,000 sheep were reported from this
county in 1874, which is no small item
of stock wealth, and of course it should
be looked after, if it is even in a beliger-
ent manner,
COUNTY INFIRMARY.
They are building, the present year, a
large and substantial county .Infirmary at
La expense of $13,000, and as they have
the money in the treasury, they pay off
their workmen every week. The erection
of such an edifice, when they need a new
court house so badly, is good evidence of
their eminent humanity, at least. To
provide for the poor is the best comment
any people can make on their civilization.
STAVE TRADE.
The immense quantities of stave timber turned out from this county makes
an item of income of even distinguished
importance. They are sold by the millions, and as the past season has been a
dull one, they have them staked here by
the acre. But few counties in the State
surpass this in the richness of its timber.
CHIEF MARKET.
The facilities afforded by the Fort
Wayne, Muncie & Cincinnati Bailroad
make the latter city the chief market for
the farmers of the county. Through the
energy and liberality of Superintendent
W. W. Worthington, this road is kept in
fine order and gives business life to the
agricultural interests of the entire line.
POPULAR FARMERS.
Mr. Bowen Hale, one of the active
farmers of the county, and who now
lives on a fine farm near this place, was
the first Clerk of the county in 1847, in
which office he served 18 years, going
out in 1855. ..Since then he has served
three years as county commissioner.
His farm is well stockea and in his old
days he is still taking a live interest in
the agricultural progress of the age. His
son, James P. Hale, is one of the rising
lawyers of this court.
TOWN  FARMERS.
John Hoover, of this vicinity is one of
the best farmers of the county. David
Studebaker, I. Kemp, Samuel M. Dailey
and T. A. R. Eaton, are also deeply engaged in the farming line. The latter
has a large vineyard.
GENERAL MENTION.
In Jackson township, we find among
the live farmers. B. L. McFadden, I
Spaulding, S. Good and Dick Mclntyre,
the later perhaps owning the largest number of acres of any man in the county.
In Chester township, which lies in the
south part of the county, there are W. H.
Maddux, Henry Barkman, Garrett Ter-
hune, J. Lowrey and E. King, who fill
the bill of agricultural progression well;
while in Nottingham, there are but few
farmers who excel Samuel Valentine, J.
0. Swalt, J. G. French, J. G. Myers and
James Williams.
Passing into Union township, the traveller is will pleased with the farms of Daniel Prough, Stephen D. Cartwright, Samuel D. Caleyj John Cass, Ezekiel Walker,
Albert Ormsby and Abraham Wolfcale.
Among the Stock Dealers of Jefferson
township we find John,T. Glass & Ransom
Allen, while John I. Metts, James S. Cart-
wright, James Deam, John Caston, and
Joseph Burnett, are well worthy of note,
both as farmers and Grangers.
In Lancaster township, which boasts of
two railroads, they table among their active farmers such men as James Dailey,3
J. Davis, James Wasson, J. Maddux, R.
Souder and Jacob Miller.
Rock Creek gives some good names
also. Such as Samuel Riddle, Daniel
Highlen, Wm. Barber, John Hayflich,
Henry Houtz and Jacob Farling.
Then, last but not least, we have in
Liberty township, J. Rinear, John Ernst,
Gabriel King, Daniel Kain, Henry Mos-
burg, and E. Popejoy, all of whom are
opening up fine agricultural establishments fully up to most in the county. ;

PREMIUMS-AT STATE FAIBS.
NEWS   OF   THE   WEEK.
Editors Indiana Farmer :—In answer
to S. S. Boyer, in the Farmer for July 1st,
I would say, if premiums were equally
distributed according to the actual utility of the article.) fair-going people would
soon tire of th&Kaonotony of the exhibitions. The human eye, like the human
palate, craves a variety; indeed, each pre
equally omnivorous in character. So
those who manage exhibitions of this
kind, be they evejr so stoical in their natures, will soon recognize the fact that a
variety of interests and tastes are to consult and cater to,1 if success, either in a
financial or social way, is the object.
Again, managers will take into consideration the expense of production and
exhibition, as well as the effect produced:
not that an oil painting is of more utility
than a textile fabric, but that in its production it far exceeds the former, in patient skill, and actual expense, and that
it is a gem of beauty, an object of attraction highly civilizing and refining in its
influences, and, while on exhibition, subject to great injury, while requiring the
constant care and attention of the exhibitor. Textile fabrics are but little damaged by exhibition, require no attention
after being once arranged, with light expense, and no risk in transportation; and
if soiled, the damage is trifling if contrasted with a blemish upon an oil painting,
while the effect produced is insignificant
when compared with the display in the
department of fine arts.
Again, the culture of fruits and vegetables requires skill and industry, and
their exhibition is attended with some
labor as well as slight loss by damage,
while the effect of a good display of these
valuable, as well as beautiful and refining
products is good. Yet, when we remember that the exhibition in this class only
continues for one week, indeed for only
three days, while the skill and expense
of production, the .risk, expense and dangers of transportation, the constant care
while on exhibition and damages incident
thereto, with the far more attractive appearance, and a continuation ofthe exhibition throughout a term of four weeks,
we are willing to acknowledge the justice
of a liberal award to "floras offering."
But our critic in his friendly review of
the situation, passes over oneof the most
glaring inconsistencies of the Board without a word of censure. I refer to the disparity of premiums in live stock department, a difference greatly in favor of mere
show and display, and against utility. _ I
find by a comparison that the Board paid
five thousand seven hundred and twenty-
seven dollars ($5,727) on horses, three
thousand nine hundred dollars ($3,900) of
which were awarded to speed, while to
all other classes of this noble animal were
paid but one thousand eight hundred and
twenty-seven dollars ($1,827).
Here are large premiums paid to a momentary exhibition, and calculated to
draw out its accompaniment of vice,
without a corresponding element of refinement or genuine culture, which, when
compared with the month of display in
fine art and floral halls, with their expensive displays and highly moral and refining influences, would seem to justify the
sharpest of criticism, yet our friend passes
over with a partial eye, to point out inconsistencies in minor matters.       W.

Beating the* Grasshopper.—A correspondent of a Colorado paper states it has
been found that plowing in the spring
before the eggs hatch destroys the hoppers effectually on the farming lands.
To guard against those hatched.the farmers there have beat the hoppers by
dropping coal oil in ditches about the
fields of grain. With a few gallons of
oil used thus millions of the hoppers are
destroyed, as they die instantly when they
come in contact with it. This correspondent thinks the grain growers of Colorado will thus be able to beat the grass-
noppers in the future, and. produce good
crops.
