W. hatter & CO., Dorchester, The fact is a strange is no doubt about it. The horns arc not of much use, and, on the other hand, are often the cause of accidents. The removal of the l.orns of young animals was recom rt ended years ago by a distinguished ve 'urinary surgeon, and Neumann demonstrated that cows without horns were, fatter and gave more milk than otheiTS. He saw four Dutch cows with out horns give from eighteen to nine teen quarts of milk a day, although on different pastures, whereas others of the same breed, but with horns, only gave twelve to fifteen quarts, in spite of the fact that they had the advantage of excellent gracing land. American breeders have made experi ments which amply confirm the state ment made above. Those in favor of the removal of "horns do not in the least intend to countenance any act of cruelty; the removal would be -effected in a simple and easy manner, by destroying the tissue or root of the horn, as soon as there was the slightest sign of hatdening on the forehead of the young animal. Hut without entering into any discussion on this head.simply note the fact that the removal of the horns increases the supply of milk. Although strange at first sight, it docs not appear so extra ordinary upon consideration. It is known by experience that the removal of an organ which has no utility leads to beneficial results in other ways. If then, the animal is more content, if its domestication is more thorough and complete, if it gives a better return to the owner of the quantity and quality of its milk.it is natural to suppose that it will raise a better calf, that shall be a better feeder and have also the capacity of its sire and dam to grow faster, mature earlier and generally do better. Indian Agriculturist The United States consul-general at St. Peters burg says that the cultivation of beets took its rise in Russia at the begin ning of the present century simultan eously with its introduction into West ern Europe. The government from the firat has taken an exceedingly ac tive interest in this industry, and it has been strongly supported by the several agricultural and economic so cieties of the empire. To the first or ganizers of beet plantations and sugar factories handsome prices in money and in government concessions were awarded; in fact, this industry has been in every way encouraged, sup ported and patronized by the govern ment, The varieties of beets grown in the empire have their origin very generally in France and Germany; of these the French appear to contain the greatest quantity of saccharine mat ter, while the German varieties will produce the largest number of bush els per acre, the difference in the lat ter respect being about -. per cent. Great care is taken in preparing the soil for beets. The field is twice plowed, the first time from seven to eight, and the second from ten to twelve inches deep. If the beet crop follows cereals the first plowing is done immediately after harvest, and the second just before frost sets in. The implements used in working beet fields arc generally of very good con struction, sometimes foreign-made, and sometimes made in llussia after foreign models. The fields are mostly sown from the first to the last day in April, according to local conditions of climate and soil. The seed is general ly soaked in water, and then sown in rows about twenty to twenty-five pounds of dry seed per acre. When the beet sprouts &how three or four leaves the plantation is weeded, and Thlnnlaj- Cora. It has been urged by some that it is best to plant about three times as many kernels of corn per acre as is wished to have mature stalks, thinning the corn when of proper size Bay from six to fourteen inches high being careful to remove the weaker stalks. In order to compare the results of this method with those of the method of planting only so many kinds as will give the desired number of stalks per acre without thinning. Mr. Franklin Stump, foreman of the Ohio Experi ment Station farm, conducted the fol lowing experiment: Four-fifths of an acre of land from which soil had been removed some years since for making brick, was divided into four equal plots A strip of uniform width across the plots, as laid out, hence involving an equal amount of each plot, grew melilotus, or sweet clover, the four seasons of 1SSS to 181)1 inclusive. The melilotus was not cut, but was allowed to go down each year and rcsced the land. A crop of wheat was cut from the laud in 1892. Aside from any effect which the melilotus may have had, the land was practical ly uniform in quality and condition. Two plots were planted at the rate of one grain per foot in the rows. The seed was excellent and almost abso lutely every grain grew. These plots were not thinned. Two plots were planted at the rate of three grains per foot in the rows, and were thinned to practically the same number of stalks per acre as wtrc then on plots one and three. The thinning was done July 7, just four weeks after planting,and the corn ranged from one to two feet high. The plots which were thinned yielded OHO pounds of ear corn, while those which were not thinned yielded 812 pounds, a decrease of 1 1 per cent due to the thinning process. This was an exceptionally dry season. The thin ning probably caused more injury than would ordinarily result. Porterhouse and Tenderloin.

J his is a material the use of which is largely increasing, says Farmers Ga.ette. It consists of -dried and 1 powdered fish, or fish refuse. Some times it is made from whole usli sprats, herrings, menhadden. etc wh'ch are boiled to remove the bulk of the oil (which is a valuable commer cial product), the residue being theyi dried for manure. Sometimes and very largely it consists of the residue of offal from the cod fisheries, haddock and herring curing operations, market fish offal, etc , similarly treated or simply dried. The more the oil has i been extracted, the better the manure, for the more rapid is its decomposition. Oil retards this, and is in itself useless as a manure. In good fish guanos the nitrogen varies from 7 to per cent up to 10 or 1 pr cent, and the phos phates from about 0 to H er cent. As a rule, the higher the nitiogen the lower the phosphates. LiUe Peruvian guano, fish ptiauo furnishes botli phosphates and nitrogen; but its nitro gen is all in the form of undecom posed animal matter, whereas in guano it is alrtad largely in the form of actual ammonia. Peruvian guano, therefore, acts much more rapidly than fish guano; and whil ; the former is gen erally best n-pplied in the spring fish guano isgcnerally best applied in the autumn, so that it may become well rotten by the time it U wanted.

If an egg is boiled until it is hard it, may be dissected and examined with case. First, the shell is carefully cut through, and then the interior, says N. Y. Times. The shell will be found to consist of an outer layer of carbo nate of lime and several tough fibrous layers, which consist of firm tissue made up of strong fibers, interlaced in crossing bands that greatly strengthen the mineral and brittle covering. It will be found that, for still farther protection, c these fibrous layers are connected at the broad end of the oval with a spiral twist band again con nected with the covering membrane of the yolk, and the spiral band acts as a spring to support the whole of the soft semi-fluid interior against sudden jars by which any of the membranes might be ruptured and the interior be so disturbed as to destroy the vitality of the egg. This inner covering is sometimes seen when, by reason of some disorder of the hen, the egg is laid without the shell, and the egg is, as commonly said, a soft one. The in side membrane is loose from the shell and forms an air space or cushion, where it is drawn down by the spiral band mentioned at the broad end. If the hardened inner part of the egg is carefully sliced by a sharp knife, and one of the thin slices is examined, it will be found to consist of several layers, each of which is distinct from the other and may be separated, and a very delicate membrane dividing them from each other. These layers are thinner on the sides of the oval and thicker on the ends, and this arrangement causes the- center to be round or spherical, as "is the yolk, which is closely surrounded by these albuminous layers. The yolk also con sists of layers that are concentric with each other and consists of a granular substance in which there is a consider able proportion of fat, In a fertile egg the vftal germ mav be seen at tached to tlieside, appearing as a small round spot. In a fresh egg this germ is clear and of a whitish color, but in an egg that is stale or has been incu bated for only a few hours, it has a number of fine red veins diverging in rays from the center, and these are the first indications of the awakening of life in the dormant egg. Allien to Aerate Milk. Uy aerating milk, odors can be com plctcly driven out that have been ab sorbed by the milk after being drawn from the cow. Odors that were de rived by the milk through the system of the cow arc not so easily taken out They will be somewhat lessened, but can never be wholly removed. Milk should be aerated as soon as possible after it is drawn, and it should, at the same time, be cooled. Aerating alone is an advantage, but its good effects on the keeping of milk are much increased by bringing the milk down to 55 de crees or lower. Milk should keep at least twelve hours longer for the aerat ing, isy using a cooler and aerator faith fully, it is possible to dispense with ice in selling milk under the ordinary con ditions as they occur in the smaller cities; but where the milk is to be by train, and is twent- four to thirty-six hours old before it is put on the milk cart, it would be necessary to use ice even with aerated milk.

Cooked I'ooil for Fattening. French poultry keepers, according to lloswell, generally cook thc grain intended for fowls they wish to fatten. They boil it till the farina swells and softens, so as to burst the enveloping membrane. It is the general opinion that burst gram is better than dry for fattening poultry, and xvhether this is founded upon accurate experiment or not, it is of importance to ascertain ihe difference of expense between the two, and whether more or less is eaten of the one than the other. To discover this, M. Keamur caused four pint- r v BaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaTaaaaaaW A Cheap IUg.

What would Job have done had he been comjielled to sit in the house and sew, and knit, and nurse the children, and see that hundreds of different things xvere attended to during the day, and hear children cry, and fret, and complain ? Or how would he have stood it if, like some ioor xxonian, he had been obliged to rear a family of ten or twelve children without any help, upending months, years all the prime of life in xvashing, scouring, scrubbing, mending, cooking, and nursing children; fastened to the house and his offspring from morning till night, and from night till morning ; sick or xvell, in storm or sunsliine, his nights often rendered mis erable by watching over his children? How could he liax-e stood all this, and in addition to all other troubles the curses aud even violence of a drunken com panion ? He would soon have tired of unrewarded laborand undeserved blame. For, after all, though Job endured his boils and losses very well for a short time, they did not endure long enough to test the strength of his patience. Woman tests her patience by a wholo life of trials, and she does not grumble at her burdens. We are honestly of tho opinion that woman has more patience than Job; anil instead of baying, "Tho patience of Job," wo should'say. " The patience of woman. " Kxvhamje.
