COLTS AND CALVES.
Rom of th Advantage of Hvlu( Tha
Com In th Full.
For growing stock grass la recog
nized as one ot the cheapest and best
of fends. Not thut it is in all cr68 a
cotnplote food, but during the growing
season it can be used to good ad van
tage at a principal food. And in the ,
management of the farm stock it is
qulto an item to got the largest
amount of benefit from the grass,,
eitltor by pasturing or soiling. '
Calves and colts, inftJie first few
months of their existence, 'must de
pond almost, if not wholly, upon milk.
It matters little (luring this time
to thorn, at least, whether their dams
are pastured upon grass or fed hay
and grain in the stable, provided the
quantity and quality are such as to
enable them to furnish a full supply
of milk. But when they are ready to
wean then it becomes a question of
considerable interest, uo they will
grow and develop, usually. In propor
tion to the quality and quantity ot thro
food supplied. . . j
One of the principal advantages in j
having the colts and calves coino in.
the fall rather than in the spring is
thnt, by the time they are ready 16
wean in the spring, the grass will have
made a sufficient growth to furnish
considerable food, and thoy "will be
able to make their first six months'
growth, after weaning, upon grass
rather than upon dry hay or fodder
and grain. In counting the cost
of preparing an animal for
market, the period of weaning
is usually considered the proper time
for beginning the account, and in a
majority of cases it will .lesson the
cost considerably if grass c;tn bo made
the principal food for the first six
months. With the cows another item
can be added. Whether marketed as
milk or made .into butter the milk is
of more value during the winter than
in the summer: and. after calving, the
cows will give the largest quantity of
milk, at least for five to six months,
and this can be secured with little, if
any more expense, during the winter
ian in the summer.
So far as possible all the stock on
tho farm should be kept in a good
thrifty condition, and if this is done
the cost of feeding is but little, if any,
more during the winter, whether a
large or a small quantity of milk is
supplied.
With the brood mares it is usually
expected that enough work ran be
done by them to pay at least for their
keep, and yet it is an item to get this
work at a time when It can be med to
the beat advantage. On most farms
this will be found to be in the spring,
when the work of seeding and plant
ing, as well as of cultivating is gen
erally most pressing. And by having
the colts come in the fall more work,
with less risk, can be secured than if
they come in the spring, and in addi
tion there is better food for their
growth and development after wean
ing. St. Louia Republic.
BEGINNING OF A BOTTLE.
ProceMM Employed in th Manufactory
of Ulaaa-U'ar.
The process begins with the gatherer.
Ilis blowpipe is a tube of wrought iron,
five or six feet long, and of lighter
weight than the pipe used in blowing
window glass. He dips the end of his
pipe into the molten contents of the
boot, and brings out a mass of red-hot
plastic glass. If the bottles to bo blown
are small, one gathering suffices, but,
for larger wares, two or even three
gatherings may be necessary to get the
requisite supply of material on the end
of the blowpipe. When the gathering
is done properly, this lump of red-hot
glass is a perfect homogeneous mass.
Its subsequent fortunes rest with the
blower, lie takes tho blowpipe from
the gatherer, and resting the plastic
glass against a niarvering table of stone
or cast iron, he gives the pipe a few
adroit rotations, thus fashioning tho
glass into an even cylindrical shape.
J'.y further rolling it along the edge of
the table he forms the smaller prolonga
tion of glass which is afterward to be
come the neck of tho bottle. Lifting
the still red-hot glass from tho table,
he blows through the pipe, forming ft
small bubble of air in the interior of
the mass of glass. This is afterward
extended until it becomes tho inward
ness of tho bottle.
The partly fashioned bit of jrlassware U
now introduced into the mold which one
of the "shop" boys has already opened to
receive it. For convenience in working,
the mold Is placed on a somewhat lower
level than that on which the blower
stands. It Is made of cast iron, and is
commonly formed in two pieces. One of
these is stationary, while tho other
opens outward, its motion being con
trolled by a foot lever. When the blower
places his incomplete bottle, still at
tached to the blowpipe, into the mold,
he closes the mold with his foot, and
blows through the pipo until the plastic
glass is everywhere forced against the
sides of the mold, and has impressed
upon it the term of its prison. Prof. C. H.
Henderson, in Popular Hcienco Monthly.

WHERE TOYS ARE MADE.
The Production or (iormany, HwlUtrland
and Holland.
Wooden carved toys are chiefly made
in Germany and Switzerland, the cheap
er kinds In the neighborhood of Nurem
berg and the better qualities at Sonne
burg, in Thuringla, from which latter
place about twenty-four million articles,
valued at 800,000, are annually export
ed. Largo quantities of wooden toys
are also made in Saxony, where an in
genious process is in uso for diminishing
the labor involved in the priluction of
animals. A circular block of soft-wood
is turned into a ring of such a pattern
that by slicing it vertically a rough rep
resentation of an animal (say an ele
phant) is secured. Each rudimentary
figure is then trimmed by hand, the ears,
trunk, tusks and tail, all of which are
separately turned and sliced by the
same method, are Inserted; and when
the animal has been painted and var
nished it is ready for use. .
Clay marbles also com exclusively
from Saxony, being made of a clay not
found elsewhere. The Ijetter qualities
Come from Holland, where they are
made from fragments of alabaster and
other stones. Taw and alley, the com
mon names for the two qualities princi
pally used in this country, are abbrevia
tions of tawny and alabaster.
A great ten days' toy fair is annually
bold at Leipsic, when more than, six
thousand merchants exhibit their goods
in every available Inch of space, even
in the garrets of the six-storied houses.
Marburg, in llessen, is chiefly occupied
with the manufacture of musical toys,
while , Hiberach, In Wurtemburg, is
noted for substantial metal articles,
such as carriages, locomotives, furniture,
etc The specialty of Switzerland is
wooden cottages, models, etc. Some
of the large dealers do very well
out of: the industry, but the actual
toy-makers in both countries are mis
erably paid, and find it very bard,
even by the most unremitting toil, to
gain a subsistence from their employ
ment, many of them being obliged to
supplement their earnings by engaging
In out-door labor during tho summer.
The productions of Holland are very
similar to those of Germany. Cham
