Quite, a controversy has taken place late
in England as to the use of horseshoes. Th
Pall :fail Budget says : As the public at

shoes at the Animal's Institute, and a serie
of papers are being read on the art of horse

the first time that the wisdom of nailing an
iron shoe on the hoof of horses has been call

of more than one owner of horses who has
converted theory into laraetiee.
A doctor in considerable practice in the
north of London has been driving,, one of his

Saving It'q 1?d Manure.
Solite time ago a correspondent askedabout
what is commonly known as the Bummer
metlled of using liquid immure, supposing
there was a patent an the process. Mr.
Dammer was one of thosewliole-souled liber-
alaninded fanners who did not wish to tax
his brethren by patenting an invention, al-
though itmiglitnothave boon original with
him, but as likely as not was based on a
practice long ing use ; but whatever might be
ew about his application of an old practice
e gave to the world in a pamphlet. The
ommer method is not specially intended
r the application of liquid manure, but
ves it with absorbents made into a com-
ist, placed over a pit into which the liquid
rains. There is a water -tight cistern made
i the surface a foot or so In depth, and.
'.s is covered with rails or logs, or au open
it upon whieh the manure is heaped. The
azure is mixed with anything of a fertiliz-
ing character, no matter what it is, so that
it will absorb manure and decay and make
plant food. The stables are drained, and
the drains flow into the cistern. A common
wooden pumpis fitted in the centre •by which
the liquid is brought up and poured over the
leap. The heap receives all the rain water,
aid any excess of it sinks through the heap
nd is caught in the cistern and dilutes the
•.quid manure in it.
h This is a simple affair, but it is a very use-
ful suggestion, and serves a valuable purpose.
It is most timely just now in view of the
modern discoveries in regard to the nitrifica-
tion of the soil and the certain. development
of nitrates from the free nitrogen of the at-
mosphere, made by Prof. llellriegel, and,
corroborated by experiments of Sir. J. B.
Lawes during the last two years. Sir. J.
Lawes' reports, just now published, of h s
tests in 1883 and 1880, have satisfied him—
as far as his extremely cautious and con-
•servative habit of mint: (a habit, by the way,
which might most usefullY be imitated by

Fuller obtained his ideas front a stud groom

ing horses could bo built up by careful and
scicntltic feeding. MI'. Fuller hail a finely
bred Jerseycow, 3farianne, of St. lambert.
He magic at chemical analysis of milk and
various foods and found that peas contained
more butter fats than ordinary grain. He
then fed his cow on pea meal, and to give
her an appetite lead her led five utiles each
day luring the winter, heavily blanketed.
The result of this treatment was that tenon
the American Cattle Club sentup an inspec-
tor it was found that theeuw had completed
a year's test and had produced 854 pounds
14 ounces of butter, against the 778 pounds
1 ounce of Eurotas, the highest known re.
cord. A promient breeder of New York at.
tempted the salve method with his cattle,
but he unwisely began by walking his cows
too far, with the result that they fell off in
milt: and bccaalncfootsore. Eimotisanna, the
cow which has just broken the butter re
cord for one year, with over 040 pounds, is

The owners of holstein cattle took Maine.
Mate advantage of this discovery that a cone
could he fed for specific purposes, anti though
their cattle were light milkers, by proper
feeding they found they could beat the Jer-
sey record for short periods of time, but not
for one year.
It requires careful and patient experiment
to feed even peremeal with the best results,
so many breeders become discouraged and
sell their herds. Then pea -meal is an expen-
sive diet for cattle.
About the year 1879 Jersey cattle were
imported here by E. P. P. Fowler, which
cost him 875 and 880 a head for best grades,
Intl these he sold for 8300 and $300 a head.
Ferdinand matt 1
Ward bought onefor$.3ai0. Alfred
B. Darling, of the Pistil Avenue Hotel; was
a pioneer in breeding fine Jersey cattle it 1
this country. He imported two line caws in
1873 in order to excel his partner, Pant
`t :Only, lli daily products. When SIi.
Steens died Mr. Darling bought the best
cattle from Ins herd, among them Violet
and Daisy, two famous cows. ,air. Kellogg
urged Mr. Darling( to make a better test of
his cattle, and Eurotas tested twenty pounds
in one week and 778 peswcls in one year.
Ex -Congressman Burnett conducted an
official test for the cattle club on Bombs, a
two-year-old daughter of Eurotas, and she
produced twenty-one pounds eleven ounces
of butter in a week. People who laughed at
the idea of such records were finally com-
pelled to acknowledge that the Jersey as a
butter cow was supreme. Mr. Kellogg labor-
ed diligently for two years to collect similar
records, nand these lie published. The re-
sult was that in 1880 the eow Myrah brought
81,400 and the cow Lass Edith $1,425 at
rabic auction. These were unheard-of
prices. In 1883 sixty-four Jersey cattle
were sold at auction in one day at an aver-
age price of $1,200,08. In 1885 the year-
ling Bamba's Daughter acid for $5,100 at
public auction, incl the cow Moth brought
the highest price ever paid for a cow at
public auction, $6,200.
Those were, of course, speculative prices.
To -day prices seldom go above $406, and
are grounded. on a business basis of butter -
and -milk -producing capacity.

Iffective lyses of Brown and Bine Denim.
Some pretty and simple portieres are de-
eeribed in a recent issue of Good IIouseNcp-'
big. They are to be made of denim, Dither
embroidered in outline or painted. The
writer says : One of the most effective cur-
tains I ever saw was one of blue denim hung
in a bedroom to curtain off a large closet.
A large branch of oranges, thrown careless-
ly across it, with one limb of the branch ex-
tending dowuward, was a very striking and
unique decoration. Tlie dull blue of the
denim made an effective background upon
which the golden balls were painted, and
the material was heavy enough to be a
pleasant substance upon which to paint.
Window and mantel lambrequins were also
made of denim, and decorated in the same
manner, and the young girl whose skilful
fingers had evolved all this beauty from
stick simple materials, assured me it had
taken very little artistic knowledge to do
the painting, and that ahnost any one who
had any ideas concerning the use of a brush
could succeed equally well. The design had
been purchased—a perforated paper pattern
—and stamped, and a little ingenuity in
diversifyingx, the pattern by stamping differ-
ent parts of it had given the effect of several
briginal designs. •
Brown denim is quite as useful as the bine,
and can be very successfully used as porti-
eres. if the light side 'is used for the
ground, a band of the clerk side can be put
an with a heavy couched line of silk or wool,
to give it a ,finish. 1fyou are skilled in
handling a brush, you can be yon: own de-
signer, and have an exceedingly pretty cur-
tain. Taking real antrum leaves, touched
with the fall fires, for your models, you. can
scatter them over the portiere as carelessly
and irregularly as possible, and paint them
in their natural colors, qr they may be cut
out of velvet, plush or satin, and fastened on
with a heavy outline stitch. Among, the
leaves, work lines in gold thread four or five
inches lens, in groups of three and five,
about an inch apart. , A band of rich, chest-
nut -brown plush is not out of plane , upon
this plainer material, or the band of darker
denim niay have 'a design worked upon it,
either in outlineor partial embroidery, with -
good effect. The double-faced' Canton flan-
nel in a shade that would contrast well with
the denim could also be' for 'bands.
