The habit of kicking, which is utterly destructtve of the value of a cow, may in every instance be traced to errors or vices in early education of the animal; 50, too, with the bad habit of Withholding the milk, and all others which are often complained of. Some interesting experimenfs have been made in Fl ance on the advantages of giving water to milch cows warmed, instead of in its natural cold state. At the Agricultural school of St. Remy two cows were fed on the same f: )d, but one was supplied with cold weter aid the other with the water to 113 degrees Fahrenheit. The latter yielded one third more milk. The éenuine stone crock with its glazing of glass makes a perfect package of butter, but the common clay crock, with its salt wash of vitreous glaze, is often a delusion in butter keeping; but what consumer ever thought it was the crock itself that worked the. damage and charged in to this came. .‘nc small p ztatoss found in digging thn crop, if boiled and mixed wth a little I) , , make excelled; feed for growmg piga, keeping them mhrifty until the time comes for heavier feeding and fattening.

An average cow will raise four calves to veal ages during a season. and these will bring $40 to $30, This is often more than can be made from her milk. Ground grain is the cheapest form in which nutrlment can be given to working horses.

Thousands of tons of straw are anually used as budding or are trampled. on farms that contain no sheep and but few cows or steers, when at the same time a fair profit cou'd as easily be derived for such waste materials as to suffer the loss.

Nevertheless, the signs are that a confer- ence will be heldâ€"with the result, most probably, not of ratifiying, but of forbidding a violent restoration of the statue/[nu This disciaion, should it be assented to by Turkey, will be tantamount to a proclamation that the Sultan's Christian subjects can have all thcliberty they choose to take, for, Wherwa their rular's hands are tied, their own hands are left free. But they would speedily dis~ cover that they had merely changed a. MosA lem for a. Christian master. There is no occasion for 8. conference if all of the signatory powers mean to comply with the obligations to which they pledged themselves in 1878. The Berlin tresty itself (‘1' fined the methods by which its provisior s were to be executed. In the clause bearing on the present question there is, indeed, a stipulation that the Porte shall not send Turkish soldiers into the provinces until after informing the powers of the exigencies re- quiring the coercion. But, of course, this qualifying phrase was never intended by Lord Bmooxsrrmm to tie the hands or the Sultan snl perm it a revolution- ary movement to acquire resistless head- way ; it was merely designed as a pre caution ageinst the Porte’s perfidiously qusr tering its troops on trivial pretexts in Chris. tinn districts. As ametter of fact, the Forte for from abusing the powers bestowed by tresty. has hitherto refrained from actually occupying the Balkan passes owing to an un willingness to cause unnecessary friwtion. and upon the supposition that it could exercise the privilege at any time, so long as the Governor of its own appoint- ment should be instelled at l’hilippopolis, and Rnumelia could count only on its own militia to obstruct a Turkish movement. llut with Prince ALEXANDER at the head of the revolted provinCes, and with the defiles of the Balksns in possession of Bulgarian sol- diers trained by Russian oliicers. the politi» cal grievance and atrategicel danger are incontrovertible, accomplished facts, and the right mode of dealing with the is unmis- tskably prescribed in the clause which we have quoted. Turkey would have acted in conformity with diplomatic usuages and in- ternational law, if within an hour after pro- claiming the purpose of coercion it had set its hand with vigor to the work. By declarâ€" ing himself ruler of 'Bulgnria Prince Aler- under rendered superfluous a formal sdmisv sion by the powers that the exigency con~ temple-ted by the Berlin treaty had arisen, and warranted the Sultan’s resort to force. The Pnrte has lostllioumelia by vecillation and timidty, and it will be lucky if its losses shall stop there. It has waited several days before announcing a resolve to assert its rights, and it evidently means to wait still longer until the powus have given distinct assurances of acquiescence in its coercive action‘ But with every day’s delay the work of putting down rebellion is certain to involve more bloodshed and devastation, and the powers will become more loath to sanction measures that might lead to atro- cities like tho-‘e imputed to theTurks on a former occasi'm in Bulgaria. Moreover, the protracted and indefinite delay imposed by recurrence to a confereree will make it most difficult to localize the rising, and we shall see in all likelihood the whole region south of the Balkans in commotion. From the mass of contradictory, equivoca- and delusive telegrams relating to the com plication caused by the rising In Roumelia emerges the broad fact of delav. Delay means disaster to the Sultan, and probably implies bad faith on the part of one or more of the other parties to fine contract entered into at Berlin. Had the l’orte at this grave crisis obeyed the instinct of senfpreservation, instead of suffering its action to be paralyzed by divid- ed counsels ; had itpromp 1y, upon receiving news of the rebellion, notified the other sig- natory powers of its purpose to enforce the rights assured to it by treaty, and almost simultaneously despatched the 7,000 Turk- sh veterans available at Adrianople, it might with the utmost ease have seized Philippopolis, reinstated the deposed Gov- ernor, occupied vhe Balkan passes, and an- nounced that the incident was closed. But, haunted by natural iorebodings that the Loumellan revolt, like the Servian in- surrection, had been instigated by Russia, and was, perhaps. countenanced by Austria, it missed the fleeting opportunity, and allowed the rebels to tram-form what was essentially a Turkish into a European ques- tion. By waiting foraneedless realiirm- ation of a sanction already conveyed by treat-y, it gave time fora counter appeal from Prince ALEXANDER, and emboldened Russia t) so far throw ad the mask as to prepose a conference for the pretended purpose of deciding how or who or whether the stains qua should be restored. “ What i: the worst thing about riches 1’" asked the Sunday school superintendent.

We often see children with red emp: blons on face and hands,rough, scalyeklu, and ofuen sores on the head. These things indicate a depraved condition «f the blood. In the growing period, chill- ren have need of pure blood by which no bulld up strong and healthy bodlea. If Dr. Pierce'n “ Golden Medical Discovery” l5 given. the blood is purged of its bad elements, and the child's development will be healthy, and as it should be. Scrofulous affections, rickets, fever-notes, hip-j oinu disease or other grave maladies and suiferlng are sure to result from ne- glect and lack of prc per attention to such cases. ()n the night after the coronation of George the Fourth, Sir Walter, having missed his carriage, had to return home on foot from the baiquet at “"estminster, in the smal hours of the morning. He wasaocompanied byayoung friend, who, when they were struggling in the crowd at Whitehall, became troubled tor fear of injury to Scott's lame leg. A space for dignitaries was kept clear at this point by the Scots Grays, and Scott ap- pealed to a sergeant of the force to be allow- ed to pass by him into the open ground in the middle of the street. The man answered curtly that the thing was impossible; his orders were absolute. As this moment some new wave of turbu- lence appromhed from behind, and Scott’s companion called Ont, in a_ loud voice,â€" "Take care, Sh" Walter Scoifrf take care!" The stalwart sergeant started on hearing the name. “What !" he exclaimed. “ Sir Walter Scott ! He shall get through, anyhow 1" He then addressed the soldiers near him : “ Make room, men, for Sir Walter Scott, our illustrious countryman !” The men were ready with their response : “ Sir Walter Scott! God bless him 1’ He was in a. moment Within the guarded line of safety.
