Tho Future or America.
Ttalnh Waldo Emerson has written a
omize greatly in the quantity of feed re
quired. But you fay it is easier to raise
grain and grass than it is to build bams.
Yes, we know that raising grain is the
mania here in the West, but things aro
changing. Grain is a drug on the mar
ket, and the farmers who get fixed for
raising stock will be the successful farm
ers, aud to be suitably fixed for raising
stock profitably, a farmer wants a good
warm barn or stable for tho horses, with
good dry beds in their stalls, aud with
plenty of good hay, and with just enough
grain to keep them sleek and in good or
der to commence the spring work with.
Tho horses are not usually so much neg
lected as tho other stock. The young cat
tle and the milk cows, the hogs and
sheep, too often have to shift for them
selves after having received an aimful of
corn fodder or what is next convenient,
cipccially if the weather be cold, and that
is tho time they most need the best atten
tion. Young growing cattle and milk cows
need shelter in cold weather, and they
thrive best on feed ground or steamed,
and it takes so much less feed when prop
erly prepared in this way; with a little
roughness, fodder or straw, young cattle
are kept growing all winter, aud the milk
cows will give pienty of good milk.
The question is just here, labor is too
high to raise grain to feed out in the
broadcast, wasteful way; and the hogs,
too. about which there is such a sensation
this season, want constant care ami goou
feeding from tho time they can crack
corn until they are ready for market, but
more especially during tho winter; givo
them warm, dry pens; let thorn sleep on
plank floors; feed them ground or cooked
feed, or both. See what a marked change
has come over the hogs iu the past ten
years. Compare the hogs marketed this
season with hogs in 1855 and 100. Then
they averaged ibout 150 to 200 pound',
now they average from 250 to COO iHiunds.
Improved breeds have brought this about,
assisted by the improved feeding and at
tention given to tho hogs of the past few
years. Don't neglect to salt your stock
once every week, and let them have plen
ty of good water.

The (Guernsey.
The Guernsey breed of cattle is now ro
ceiving considerable notice from our
breeders, says the American Agricultur
ist. In this country tho Jerseys havo
heretofore monopolize! most of the atten
tion bestowed upon Channel Island cattle
though the number of Guernseys export
ed is large. The aversge yearly number
of cattle sent from the Island of Jcrs"y is
about 2,000, and from Guernsey half that
number. Of the many thousauds thus ex
jorted, comparatively few have come to
this country.
The Guernseys are similar in build to
the Jerseys though larger and inclined to
flesh, and not so stylish. Their color is
usually a rich tawn, with much white; the
muzzle and eyelids are buff; in fact all
the "points" are light, offering a Btrong
contrast to the black points of a fashiou-ablv-marked
Jersey. The Guernsey is a
deep milker, producing the yellowest or
luiiter of Minerior oualitv- Some good
judges, familiar with both breeds, piace
tho Guernseys ahead of the Jerseys as
butter makers; while their size and ca
pability of taking on fat when they cease
to be useful for the dairy, render them a
desirable breed. One farmer of our ac
quaintance, who has an excellent herd of
both of theso breeds says the admixture
of tho cream froju Guernsey milk with
that from Jerseys gives the butter a deep
er, richer color, and makes it bring a
higher price than that from the Jerseys
alone. The Guernseys being, as a ruie,
larger milkers consequently yield more
butter, but the quality of that made ex
clusively from their milk is not quite
equal, as it lacks something of its delicate
flavor, to the best Jersey buiter. This ex
periment indicates that one or two good
Guernsey cows in any herd kept for but
ter would probably improve its product
as a marketable article. Some Guernsey
cows that we have seen, are nearer tho
ideal cow than any other we have met;
their rich color, large, fine bodies hand
some proportions fully developed udders
aud oiher "ui'uk signs" together witli
their docility, and their rich and generous
butter vield. make tliem a distinct and
characteristic breed of dairy cattle. The
Jerseys hold a justly deserved prominenco
as butter producers, and it is safe to pre
dict that iheir numbers will greatly in
crease. The recent numerous sales indi
cate an increase in'the importations, not
withstanding the fact that some of our
breeders are now breeding just as good
Jerseys as can be found anywhere in the
world. The rapid depletion of the herds
I of the "mother country ' under the annual
culling out ot s.uou animais iu l
tion, renders this state of affairs inevita
ble. It is a fact, that the best Jersey
cow s, both on the Island and in this coun
try, closely resemble the Guernseys in
size aud geueral appearance a fact which
speaks strongly of the Guernsey typo, as
one to be regaided by breeder of dairy
stock of any kind.

Crns Tobpio Lives.
Dr. Tutt nas been en
gaged in the practice
of medicine 30 years,
and for a long time
was Demonstrator of
Anatomy in the Med
ic! College of Georg
ia,hence persons nsiug
his Pill have the guar
antee that they are
prepared oa scientific
iriuciples,and are free
from all quackery.
He has succeeded In
combining in them the
heretofore antagonis
tic qualities of a
strengtnening,prirgaiii
and a purifying tonie
Their first apparent
effect is to increase the
appetite bv causing tho
food to properly as
similate. Thus the sys
tem is nourished, and
by their tonic action
ou the digestive or
gans, regular and
wealthy evacuations
are produced.
The raniditv with
which person take on
Hah, while under the
influence of these pills,
of itself indicates their
adaptability to nourif a
the body, and hence
their efficacy in curing
nervous debility, mel
ancholy, dyspepsia,
wasting of the musclea
sluggishness of the liv
er, chronic constipa
tion and imparting
health and strength to the system.
A DOCTOR SAYS.
Dr. I. Guy Lewis, of Fulton Ark., writes ; "One
year ago I was taken sick, a friend argued so
stronglv in favor of Tutt's Pilla that I was in
duced to use them. Never did medicine have a
happier effect than in my case. After a practice
of a quarter of a century I proclaim them tho
best auti-bilious medicine ever used. I have pr-
scribed them ia mv practice ever since."
SUPERIORITY OF
TUTT'S PSLLS.
They are compoundod from medicinal substan
ces that are positively free from- any properties
that can ia the least degree injure the most deli
cate organization. They search, cleanse, purify,
and invigorate the entire system. Ey relieving
the engorged liver, they cleonue the blood from
poisonous humors, nd thus impart renewed
health and vitality to the body, causing the bow
els to act naturally, without which 110 oue can
fed wel.
A TORPID LIVER
is tlie fruitful source of many diseases, prominent
amng which are Dynpcpsia, Kick-IIeadnchc,
Costiven'.'ss, Dysentery, Bilious Fever, Ague and
Fever, Jaundice, Piles, Kheumatism, Kidney
Complaint, Colic, etc.
Tutt's Pills exert a direct and powerful influ
ence on the Liver, and will, with certainty, relieve
thut important organ from disease, and restore
its normal functions.
