would die. He then killed the
dog, which they ate. They start!

without shoes, they were compel
led to retreat on account of the

until they were able to get to the
house and get a sack of flour,
which kept them from starving un

property was destroyed. '

TUE PHYSIOLOGY OF BREEDING.
Mr. James Howard, on the phys
iology of breeding deemed the fol
lowing points fully established in
breeding :
1. That from the male parent is
mainly derived the external struc
ture, configuration and outward
characteristics, also the locomotive
system of development.
2. From the female parent is de
rived the internal structure, the
-f t orrn r..i j mtu.J, ,-r,-wi,jn
the constitution, temper ana nauu,
in which endurance and bottom
are included.
3. That the purer the race of the
parent, the more certainty there is
of its transmitting its qualities to
the offspring; say two animals are
n,0fOil if one is of purer descent
than the other, he or she will ex
ercise the most influence in stamp-
1 ing the character of progeny, par
ticularly if the greater purny is ou
the side of the male.
4. That apart from certain dis
turbing influences or causes the
male, if of pure race, and descend--tryni-a
'sroTTR orj.niform color,
stamps the color of the offspring.
5. That the influence of the first
nn frequuullij n ' aot
ed beyond the birth of the off-
spring of which he is parent, and
his mark is left upon subsequent
progeny.
6. That the transmission of dis
ease of the vital organs is more
certain if on the side of the fe
male, and diseases of the joints if
on the side of the male parent.
ALFALFA.
It has been demonstrated beyond
a doubt that it is a crop peculiarly
adapted to this climate. It is easi
ly raised, yields from three to five
tons to the acre and sometimes
more, two or three cuttings being
made during the season. As many
farmers are turning their attention
more and more to the raising of
stock, and less to wheat growing,
and will therefore seed a portion of
their land to alfalfa, a few words
concerning the preparation of the
soil, the sowing of the seed and
caring for it, will not be out of
place at this time, when the weath
er is favorable to the work.
See that the ground is in the
best possible condition for irrigat
ing, there must be no ridges or
dead furrows in other words the
surface should be as even as possi
ble; this is exceedingly important
as no leveling can be done after
the alfalfa is up. Sow the seed
as soon the frost is well out of the
ground; the writer prefers broad
cast sowing and then harrowing
well, as the seed is more certain to
come up. If put in with a drill,
the land should be plowed in the
fall, for if plowed in the spring,
the seed is apt to be put in too
deep, so that it rots in the ground.
Two inches is deep enough, and
not less than twenty-five or thirty
pounds of seed to the acre, in
order to choke out as many weeds
as possible. Plenty of water will
be needed the first season, in order
to give it a good start. The thick
er the stand, the better the quality
and larger yield to the acre, and
less waste in feeding; where the
stand is thin the plant is coarse and
woody. It is well to sow again
lightly the second season in order
to fill up the bare spots that are
always to be found. Keep it thick
and the hay will alwpys be of fine
quality. Do not cut until the al
falfa is in blossom as it is not ma
tured until then. Rake when thor
oughly cured, and only in the
morning or evening, to avoid
leaves falling off. In this way
there is little waste, and will be
better relished by the stock.--Portland
