Inhumanity and the Hone.
The power to nppreciato the dumb creature
of God the horse is a good thing. In a
man's character it measures up toward a true
humanity. And where this poer is wanting,
it shows inhumanity. To fully appreciate the
horse, demands not only intellect, but moral
sensibility a sensibility devout and almost
religious. What ti'i admirer did tho horse
rind in Job 1 to the horJe he dedicates a rare
poem, that overflows with sublime apprccia-,-n
IT nnnroth in the valley, and reioicetli
inhi's strength; he noethon to meet the armed
men; he mocKctii at icarnim i uuw nunguwu,
neither turneth ho back Irom tho sword. The
quiver rattletn aeainsL nun, mo giuKiiug
pronnd with fierceness and raue; neither be
lievcth he that it is the sound of the trumpet.
He saith, amnng the trumpets, Ha, Ha 1 and
he smedeth the li ittle afar off, the thunder of
the captains and the shoutings." Wherein all
literature is this utterance equaled! What a
companionship of heroic courage, sublimo and
fateful endeavorl Such measureless joy, such
clad abandon for supreme trial, is portrayed
by no other pen.
But of his treatment I would speak. His
nature and character invoke for him consider
ate care and attention. In every way it is our
interest to treat him, according to the laV3 of
his being; and it is well if wo do.
There are those, however, thronch pas-ion,
or by virtue of innate meanness, or a mistaken
policy, treat this grand creature the reverse
of this. They are often simply inhuman
wretches, and should be scorned and loithed
if thy cannot bo reformed. In a thousand
nameless ways they give needless pain andof
ten torture. Take an illustration: Here is a
man, who, since tho beginidng of winter, ha'
lost five good horses; usually he has a team of
six good ones, and is engaged in heavy haul
ing, and part of this heavy work is over bad
roids. In the stable ho gives his stock good
attention; but en the road he loads them tc
yond their strength, and keeps them on the
strain till they sink down in utter exhaustion.
It was onlv vestcrdav that I met the last vic
tim of his cruelty on the mad. They wore
trying to get him to tho Btable; but life was
too near sperm lor mai; anu ine spirit ui una
noble biute was about to escape from its mer
ciless tormentor. What a picture of horror !
He was built to last thirty years, and is only
six, an inheritor of rich blood. His inhuman
owner could but pay tho dying creature a
comnliment. bv savjnc with a nuavcr in his
voice, "He was a puller, never refusal; but
he has pulled himself to death 1" .They call on
him to move, and his willinu snirit yields, and
with infinite 1 bor he lifts his dead fet this
is his last trip over this road; for death i3
nullina the spectral load over this weary way.
What a change! That stat-ly horse that once
trod so proudly now trembles, for the end is
near. With blood-shot eyes, wide distended
nostrils, ami lips covered with bloody foam,
lie drops dead in his tracks !
The wounds of the murdered bleed nfn sh
when even the murderer comes near them. At
some time and in some way eternal justice
will make inquisition for this blood the eter
nal Nemesis i'l cleave to the wrong cioer
inhunianitv'fs tho deeper depths of self-abhorrence.
You anticipate; then be considerate,
lie just, be humane- toward this truest, best
and most useful croiture, the hone.
In him we have found inexpressible pleas
ure; a something kindred to friendship, . self
sacrifice that was inexhaustible and unwciried
by long service. Among the noblest and best
is the horse that I rode during the war of the
rebellion he is now thirty-one years old, full
of years and full of honors. Hut I remember
him when "his nick was clothed with thun
der and the glory of his nostrih was terrible."
Jlut old as ho is, "his price is above rubies."
Pink Eye.
This dise iso among horses in the East has
been so prevalent that it will be a good thing
for farmers hero to know something about it.
We clip the following from the Country Gen
tleman, which paper is good authority on any
subject :
Pink eyo is a name applied to adistase
which often in spring and fall (especially if the
weather is very wet and the climate generally
unfavorable tu health) breaks out as a sort of
epizootic. It will occur lireely in somo few
districts, and not be general. It is then said
to be epizootic, and is a species of influenza,
developing into a catarrhal form of fever, such
as the great epizootic of 1872 and 1873; or it
may bring ou a diphtheroid or typhoid disease.
There is also a type ot influenza which afficts
the cellular tissues of tho body, accompanied
by ni re or Itss of the following symptoms,
and this disease is also called "pink eye."
The earlier sjmptnms are dullness, rigors, loss
of appetite, swelling of eyelids, discharge
'of tears down tho face, pip in the
limbs and shifting or resting nf first ono and
then a .other, anJ to en, the lcjs one or more
are apt to swell, circulation is imperfectly
carried on, and they become c ery cold. The
pulse runs from M tu 84 per minute, and after
a few days becomrs very feeble. The internal
temperature at commencement will be about
102 degrees or 103 degrees. Hut if the throat
is seriously atlected or the disease attacks the
lungs it may rise to 107 degrees. All the ex
cretory functions are depraved more or lets.
I'ink eye takes its name from the color of the
conjunctival mucous membrane lining the
eyelids, which is pink, red, cr very dark
red, according to amount of congestion of its
blood vessels. It really signifies nothing, in
asmuch as almost all feve s and inflamma
tions that ff ct the general system give rise
to higher color of the mucous membranes.
Simple cellulitu, or piiil. eyo when aaiiiiuiig
a mild type, requires but little treatment.
But each year domestication adds tntlie se
verity and multiplication of rpimM dir:",
and recently America has experienced a wide
spread epizootic in horses that partook some
what of the nature of pink eye, but with all
the symptoms aggravated, miny cases coal
ing under my notice being really Uphold
pneumonia, others presenting symptoms like
those of diphthetia in the human subject.
Horses usuallycough a good deal when suffer
ing from pinK eye, aodluve discharges from
the ntwtrils, but this year many do not cough,
and very few discharge from the noie. Ani
mals havinu slight attacks renuiro rest, cloth
ing for body and limbs, good strengthening
tllcl I1UI aiartuuuu uu uiau luaeiico, u jaa-
tivc. nitr&t'i of potash, iron and iiuinine A
combination of chlorate and iodide of potash
is also very good. It the throat is sore, give
counter irritation and gargles. But if the in
ternal temperaturo is high, appetite gone,
throat very sore, and the breathing acceler
ted, they require the experience and judg
ment of a veterinary surgeon. I consider it
wise to give every mtdicine that can be so
admiiiiiUred, in the form of a ball (bolus), as
they do not in this way get any Quid into the
lungs, as is often the case where horses are
drenched when their throats are sore. Such
an accident is apt to be fatal. There is no
danger of transmission of pink eye to pro-

Care of a Colt's Foot.
Let us start' with tho young' colt which" I
will assume is foaled in the early part of the
pasturing season, and allow ed 1 i run in nearly
a state of na'ure until winter. During this
time the feet of the colt are worn by the soil
so that there is just onoutrh hoof ail the time
for tho proper development of tho foot. But
during the long winter the colt is either con
fined in a small stall, standing on his own
manure, which is often decomposing and giv
ing oil ammonia, rr he is turned int-i the barn-
yard. In cither caso the hoof comes in eon
tact with nothing to wear it away. The man-
ure exerts It to great growth, n in uy spruit;
the foot is nearly twice as 1 ug as it would
have been had the colt been running on dirt.
After this continchient, the farm ;r on some
nice day turns his eul' out in the field to en.
joy seeing him run. Ami this is the time
when "ring bone," "spavin" or curb appears
on colts, owing to the long toe on ono side of
the foot being higher than tho orher. To
avoid this the colt vlwuld bo hdtered and
taken to a blacksmith every six weeks during
confinement ami have his feet trimmed in
natural shape. By put suing this coinse until
the co'.t is three yrars old you have ilmost to
a certainty a sound horse in tho feet, as well
as broken to be shod.
IS THE PIO A FILTHY ANIMAL?
The little animal that leads all our exports
of animal products, and is likely to hold this
lead for years to come, should not bo chargod
with faults that belong primarily to his keep
ers. The pig is called the filthiest of our do
mestic animals, but this is made inseparable
from his surroundings in most cases. TIm pig
is a wonderful machine for the production of
pork, bacon and hams. He is the greatest
utilizer of food on the farm. He lays up in
his body 20 per ceut. of the dry substance of
his food a feat not performed by any other
of our domestic animals and proper provision
should be made for the disposal of his excre
tion. The tidy dairymun cleans his cow sta
ble every day, and some twice a day; but his
pig pen is not cleaned till his pizs are likely
to bo submerged. Are the pigs or the owner
chargeable with tho filth !
A no BATH.
Some years ago we tested the pig's disposi
tion to keep clean whe-e the opportunity
was iivcn, by placing in his pasture a thai
low bath of clean water. This privilege was
eagerly used, in prcfcre'iee to wallowing in a
mud hole some few rods off. This shallow
bath was filled with fresh water three times a
week, and it was noticed that the pics seemo!
always to enjov the lenowal of tho water.
This certainly indicated a nice discrimination
in cleanly habits.
SH.F ChKAXIVO PEW
The writer has also placed pigs upon a
slatted floor, which would allow the liquid
and much ot tho solid to go through, and the
balance was mostly trodden through. On ono
side of the pen was a strip ot tight floor, four
feet wide, with the trough placed upon it
against the side of the pen, and upon these
planks was placed bedding for the pigs.
Tney soon learned the use of the slotted pail
of the pen, and would go thero nnd diop Tho
slatted floor was elevated fifteen inches above
the bottom, so that thi excretion soon works
throuch the slats, nnd the pen and pigs aro
kept clean. A door is hung upon a lunge, so
as to be turned up and allow the manure to
be cleaned from under the slatted part of the
floor. The pigs, in thii case, keep quite clean
without any labor being bestowed upon them,
except to remove the manure, once a month,
from under the slattc.l floor.
The writer has found pigs just as ready to
keep clean as any other ai.imal avhen the on
portunity is afforded them to do sa Let the
farmer take the same pains to keep him clean
as hn docs in the case of other domestic ani
mals, and he will find the pig as cleaidv as
any of them. The pig is a veiy profitable an!
mal, and when we consider that it returns us,
from exportations, about ten million dollars a
year, a suju greater than all other animal ex
ports, it would seem that it deserves to be
treated with as much consideration as we give
to our cows and horses.
3J-W
Guinea Hens.
A correspondent says, in jour issue of
April, that ho is in a liitlo doubt as to
the usefulness of Guinea fowls. They arc ex
cellent watch dogs among poultry. I have
seen a hawk hovering over our hens, tl.o
Guiira liens al.o saw it, mid tho warning
screeches which they sent out w ero interesting
to me if not musical. I cousider Guinea hei s
indispensable. If they are kindly treated they
become quite tame, and will not wand, r very
far. Mine will eat oil my hand, and one young
rooster that was hatched by a hen, and that I
brought up from tho nest, will necr run from
me, nnd Ioften take him tip avhen hn is feed ing,
but cannot do it at any other time, he is so
timid. I cannot call him wild, for he follows
me like a dog, but unlike a dog he will .never
willingly submit to a caress.
A Guinea hrn will lay 17, eggs in a sson,
beginning in June and ending in the early
days of September. The eggs ale cousideied
quite a dainty. They are speckled, but are not
darker in shell than a Hralima's. The shells
are very t' ic! id 'r rg, snJ if put uudLt- a
hen to hatch, will ruiuire one month 8 sitting.
When hatchol, tho chickens are aery wild
and very tender. I alwajs wrapped tv.eui in
waddiug or cotton batten; waildiiig is b nt at
first; uftei they are a week old canton fianml
is the best. They require a great dtal of care
and watching. The first tool I gae my
chicks was biead and milk and a little hard
boiled egg. Unfortunately, I kept my protty
little chicks too hot, and they died one af'cr
the other. The next lot I had were hatched
too late in the reason, and fadtd away on ac
count of" the cold. The young chicks are
brown w hen first hatched. They teem to be
covered with a soft fur (not down.) like a
mouse. It seems impossible that these little
dun-colored creatures will become the hand
some Guinea hens. The onlv one I re i red was
an odd one. put under a hen for an experi
ment, in the spring. The hen hatched twelve
chickens, and then kept on sitting until the
Guinea chick was hatched. (I did not know
then how long the chick would be in coining
from the shell.) After it was batched I put it
with tome young chickens two dsyj oh!. It
grew and nourished, eating the same as the
chickens. What seemed to me very strange
was that fifteen more little Guineas, were
hatched, the first one would never tay with
them, but made a shrill whistle till I put it
with the chickens, and to this day, though ten
months old, it prefers to be with its foster
brothers atd sitters lather than with the
Guinea hem. Thii thows how tame the birds
may become.
At to the accusation of tormenting the bent,
iwtjaraaMWjj su imt wui ' iwbih
I do not think they tease the hens any more
thin the rhens tei'o each other; they tbave
nover killed or otherwise hurt a chicken or a
hen, although a Plymouth Rock ruorter thaf.
we had nearly killed a Guinea hen. Your cor
respondent says he cannot distinguish a ben
from a rooster. The hen always cries "come
back," the rooster never; he screams. I do not
know that he has an individual cry as the hen
has. I presume he has, but I do not under
stand bird language, so as to bo able to inter
pret. Another difference hctwoen them tho
rooster's head, wattles and comb (!) aro much
larger and coarser than the hen's. I always
kept the hen in the barn while sho was laving,
s i as to make h r lay thero. Sho very rarely
laid in a nest box but on the floor anywhere.
If sho is allowed to run sho will find somo
bushy place, lay twenty eggs, and then sit on
them. We found thrco nests, ono after the
other, stolen in spite of my precautions. Ono
n.'S had 23 eggs, one 18, and one 20. These
eggs aro verv good for coiking. They have a
slight game flavor, and are very rich for cook
ing. Altogether, I think it pays to keep Guinea
hens. They can be trains 1 to run with hens.
They must not bo allowed to roost out of
doors; at least, ours never were, tor they aro
not so hardy as wil 1 birds. We have lost sev
eral birds from soms disease; wo nevor could
tell what, and concluded that the bird had
tiken cold. If only a Guinea hen droops,
there is nothing that I know of that will re
store her. Ex.
Diversified Farming
The Pnneville Xewt gives the Ochoco far
mers a lecture on the benefits of diversified
farming. As now little is done in that sec
tion besides stick raising, what it says will
apply to a good part ot the Upper onntry.
"As a rule the farming industry is a profitable
one in this country, and one that gives ample
reward for the capital and labor invested.
Although the production per acre is not, so
great as in many other places, vet the stand
ing price is not great enough to more than pay
for the difference in the abundanco of the
crop. Wheat is never less than a dollar a
bushel in Ochoco, and the vicinity of Prine
ville, and oats rarely sell for less than from
fifty to seventy-five couts per bushel the year
round. As yet few men have gone infti the
production of cereals as a business, only barely
f uflicient being raised to supply tho home de
mand, and. hence the high ruling prices. This
branch of industry will most likely continue
to repay the laborer for his work for many
years to come, as the immigration to this sec
tion up to the present time has consisted chief
ly of those men who are either stock owners,
or else intend to invest in stock. The time
will soon camo when farming will bo tho chie
occupation of the people of this country, and
then those enterprising individuals who havo
made farms, and have them cultivated, will
have resources that the stock men do notpos.
sess. Farming in any place is thn most inde
pendent pursuit, or livelihood, that is fol
lowed by man; and Ochoco farmers are no ex
ception to the general rule. In a few years
the grass will have beon eaten out, root and
branch, and then tho farmers will reap their
reward. This section will be taken up, overv
foot of it, and converted into fields and gar
dens Tho greatest drawback to firming in
this country is the uncertainty of tho season.
The soil is drv by nature, and it occasionally
happns that the rainfall is not sufficient to
permit tho proper maturing of grains and
fruit. But this does not often o-cur. and
those who nro now making farms for them
selves are tho ones who will win in the future.
Young Animals -Their Care, Etc.
This is a fit topic for consideration. Tho
young animals being weaned and deprived of
their mother's milk the most appropriate
food for their growth and health tho art of
man now comes into practice in place of
naturi.1 instincts. 'I ho young animal must ho
fed nnd its food chosen and apportioned for
it. This should bo done with propriety. Tf
the food is not p-epared right, no excess of
quantity will make up for the defect in that
respect. In fact, excess of quantity will be a
serious error, although the food should not be
of the very best. We cannot here suggest
what foods should ho used, and can onlv give
a hint or two as to the manner of feeding.
This should 1)0 a-erycautiously done, A young
animal is spoiled as soon as it becomes f ,t.
for its food is turned from tho production of
bone and muscle, which are needed, to the
growth of fat, which is unnecessarv nnd posi
tively unhealthful. The food phould bo given
in small quantities and olten, and the ration
increased gradually as it may be found to be
disposed of in a satisfactory manner Wnt r
is of the creat'Pt nereRsitv. a' d tbi .hnnhl
not only liberally supplied, but it shouhl bu
perfect'y pure. Regularity in feeding is of
the greatest importance. Animals do not
reason, but they remember their times rf
feeding; they fret and worry if the t'me
passes without bringing the expected food,
and this worry serioiis.lv affects them Sheep
and pigs arc espe ially fretful if their usual
time p-sses by, and a fl"ck of sheep thus
worried through a whole winter will fail to
gain weight, although as well fed as another
tint having lieen fed regularly may add
twenty pounds a head to their carcase. The
habits and requiremcutsof each animal should
be watched, and a weak, timid thing that is
driven from i'sfood by belligerant and tyran
nical companions should be kept separate.
The owner's eve should be everywhere and on
the continual watch to observe how his young
stock are progressing: a d just now this is
important, because it is indispe"Rable' for
thiiir WellJlu thst Hiov khould begin thn
season strong, vigorous and robust. Irih
