I HE ABOVE TRAGEDY happened in the State of IlHnois and is the result of two farmers and

-*- neighbors doing a partnership business for several years, buying and selling hogs, cattle, etc.

When the day of settlement came, there were no receipts or correct business records to show

their business relations; consequently a tragedy. A difficulty which could have been avoided

by giving and receiving the proper receipts and keeping a correct record of every business

transaction.

THE FARMERS' MANUAL.1. THE FARMERS' MANUAL is one of the most complete and practical books

ever placed into the hands of the farmer. It will be a safe guide in business and a correct guide

in keeping accounts.

2. Penmanship.—The copies of the penmanship department are from the pens of the

best penmen in America. Thev should be carefully studied and used as copies for practice. Afew months of faithful work will make a good penman of the poorest writer.

3. Book-keeping".—The sets given in the following pages are to be used as models.

The transactions written up are also given in full, so that every student will plainly see the sim-

plicity of the arrangement. Book-keeping is an easy study and should be understood by all.

Study the transaction first, and then study up the transaction written out in detail.

4. Business Forms.—This department of the work is a new and novel feature. The"business forms" as they occur are taken directly from actual business. They are the same size

and the same form. The script type shows what is written in filling out the blank document, and

the common type shows the form as printed before it is used in actual business. He who becomes

familiar with all the businessforvis in The Manual will understand the actual business transactions,

5. Business Law.—This department will speak for itself. All the laws pertaining to

the farm and farm business are concisely and correctly given.

6. The Insect Department.—The time for raising fruit and many garden vegetables

has gone by, unless some attention is given to the modern system of spraying or other meth-

ods of insect extermination. The Manual gives all the different receipts for spraying and all

modern methods for the extermination of farm and field pests. Every farmer should know some-

thing of the habits of insects as well as remedies for their extermination. The Manual will give

the desired aid.

7. The Horse Department ^vill speak for itself. It is just what every farmer needs

and must have if he is a practical man. The best bred horses in America are shown by beau-

tiful illustrations, drawn by the best horse artist in America. Every horse is a perfect illustration

of the original. The Medical and Training department has been prepared by the highest voter-

ary authorities.

8. Useful Tables.—Last will be found a complete wages table, interest table and

breeder's table, etc. ; also the most complete and reliable cotton picker's and cotton seller's table

ever published, which alone is worth the cost of the book. The cotton seller's table runs by

sixteenths and twentieths from 3c up to 10c, and 300 pounds up to 099 pounds. No practical farmer

or planter can afford to be without it.

GETTING ON IN THE WORLD; [The Farme.cs

HORACE GREELEY.

GETTING ON IN THE WORLD; ok. HOW TO SUCCEED.1. Energy and Success.—This is essential to every

moderate success. The man of energy controls circum-

stances otherwise unfavorable, and opens up avenues by

which he advances to honor and wealth. The reason the

sons of so many rich men are comparative failures is the

want of energy. Thej' have the ability to succeed as did

their fathers, but they lack that stimulus which excites

energy and calls into action the full strength of man-

hood. Energy is the active principle in man. It is the

force which impels over and around all obstacles. TheAlmighty has planned that success cannot be attained

without a struggle, having made an effort.

2. Persevere In It.—Never give up or leave the en-

terprise you have considerately selected for another that,

for the moment, may appear more promising. A busi-

ness is not built up in a month nor a year. Experiencedmen tell us that it matters not what a person engages in,

by perseverance, he will succeed. Many men haveprosecuted with energy and ability some enterprise until

just on the eve of success, when, shutting their eyes to

the prospects of reward, they abandon the project or sell

out their chance to a newcomer, who steps in and enjoys

the fruits of their labor, while they, allured by other

schemes, start anew at something else which promises

speedier results, only to repeat the failure.

3. Be Prompt.—This is a quality of the greatest im-

portance to the farmer as well as to the business man.

Depend on strengthening your credit by prompt pay-

ment of all engagements rather than by outside display

in living, dressing or equipage. If possible, meet all

obligations promptly ; but this cannot always be done,

and in such cases make a plain, straightforward state-

ment beforehand, and ask for an extension. To a manwho is prompt and business-like almost any creditor will

cheerfullj' grant an extension of time. Those who give

credit have no anxiety about such debtors.

4. Knowledge of Human Nature.—This is the abil-

it3^ to penetrate into other men's minds, to discover their

motives and predict their actions. The working of the

mind is indicated by the countenance, the tone of the

voice or a tremor of the nerves, and b}^ obser\^ation of

these we have an indication of what the person's action

will be. The study of these things is said to be the

study of human nature, and is of the greatest value in

business life. We can readily see the more prominent

indications of anger, fear, etc., but to be able to read the

mind and see the inner motives and desires of those

with whom we come in contact is one of the most valu-

able traits, since it enables us to suit our words and

actions to the case.

5. Keep Your Own Counsel.—Eearn all you can of

what is going on around you, but communicate little

Never make a parade of your business, but go about i';

quigfi- otid transact it in a business-like way. Do not

Page 15: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

Manual.] Or, how to succeed.

boast of j'our profits. Do not go about telling people what

you are doing or what ycu propose to do. The successful

business man, like the successful general, conceals his

plans until he has fully matured and perfected them, and

until the proper time for them to be known. Young

men in the employ of others should know that their em-

ployer's business is their secret, to be kept strictly con-

fidential. There are some people who can hardly keep a

secret. It rankles and burns their brain, and they have

no rest until it is disclosed to some one. Such persons

will never attain a high degree of success.

6. Foresight.—The faculty of looking into the future

and divining what will come to pass is of supreme im-

portance in business life. The greatest success is found

where this qualification is greatest. The man of fore-

sight has just the articles that are in greatest demand.

He owns acres of land now sought at high prices for

building lots. Others say he is " in luck," but the truth

is he foresaw the demand and prepared for it. It wasnot luck but calculation.

7. Depend Upon Your Own Efforts.—There is no

short cut, no royal road to permanent success. Thou-

sands have tried to find one ; but they have all failed,

miserably failed. Not advantages of birth or wealth,

neither genius nor opportunity make the man ; but his

own efforts, his own right arm and manly enterprise

they achieve for him success, and wealth, and renown.

Do not be mercurial. Extraordinary success should

not unduly elate you, nor, on the other hand, should dis-

couragements easily depress you. A varying success is

what you may expect ; only do your duty.

8. Business and Society.—Cultivate friends and ac-

quaintances in business. The former are won by years.

of honesty and integrity; but the latter are the daily re-

ward of a courteous and affable demeanor. You maysucceed without giving much thought to the social side

of nature, but you will be compelled to labor a lifetime

for the same reward you could have obtained in a few

years. Enlarge the circle of your acquaintance amongthose who are so situated in life as to become your

customers as far as you can without taking too muchtime from your business. Do not consider an hour or

an evening taken occasionally for social interests as en-

tirely lost. On the contrary, you should feel a citizen's

interest in the moral, intellectual and benevolent enter-

prises of your neighborhood. The influence of every in-

telligent and upright business man in a community is

beneficial, and it is your duty to exert this influence for

the general welfare, not looking for anj^ reward per-

sonalty, but accept that compensation which comes froai

an extended favorable acquaintance.

Beware of being drawn into social matters to the ex-

tent of causing a neglect of your business. Do not

allow yourself to be president of this, secretary of that,

and treasurer of the other, so that your time and energy

is taken up with these matters to the injury of your

business. Do not allow your store or ofiice to become a

club-room or a place for political meetings.

9. A True Duty.—Always regard the duty of exact-

ness and promptness in fulfilling contracts and promises,

no matter how trifling, and uniformly manage your

business on these principles, not only strictly carrying

them out in your own obligations, but strictly requiring

them of others, and you will do much to keep alive and

active that high sense of honor in the community which

induces a man to consider his word as good as his bond.

HOW TO BECOME A PENMAN. [The Farmers

HOW TO LEARN TO WRITE, OR BECOME AN EXCELLENT PEN5IAN.

1. Good Copies.—When you practice, study the copy,

rr^e its harmony, and you will discover more of its beauty

and find greater inspiration and interest in practicing.

A successful student in penmanship must study the art

and cultivate the beautiful, and practice until he can per-

fectly imitate the copy.

2. Material.—Have good paper. Do not buy a lot of

cheap trash because it is cheap, but procure a good quan-

tity and quality of paper and plenty of good steel pens.

Use Spencerian Pen No. i, Musselman's Perfection Pens,

and you will also find some good pens among the Ester-

brook and Gillott make. First find a pen that suits you

best and then procure a box. It is much the cheapest

to buy pens by the quantity.

3. Gold Pens.—Do not use gold pens while practic-

ing. While learning to write always use a steel pen.

Gold pens are very good after a good hand has been

mastered.

4. Correct Position.—When writing sit at the desk

or table in a position that is perfectly convenient and

comfortable. Sit so that no portion of the body is

cramped, and let the arm rest easily upon the table or

desk. Do not sit with the feet upon the rounds of the

chair. Keep your feet firmly upon the floor.

5. How to Hold the Pen.—Hold the pen so that

the holder points over the right shoulder, and do not let

the penholder drop below the knuckle joint of the fore-

finger.

6. Movements.—Finger movement is the combined

action of the first and second fingers and thumb. Fore-

arm movement is the action of the forearm sliding the

hand on the nails of the third and fourth finger. Com-

bined movement is that which is most used in business

penmanship. It is a union of the forearm with the

finger movement, and possesses great advantage over the

other movements in the greater rapidity and ease with

which it is employed. Whole-arm movement is the

action of the whole arm from the .shoulder with the

elbow slightly raised and the hand sliding on the nails

of the third and fourth fingers, and is used with faciUty

in striking capital letters and in off-hand flourishing.

7. Practice.—In learning to write there are three es-

sential things. The first is practice; the second is

PRACTICE ; the third is practice ; and the student who

carries out these three things will master an excellent

handwriting. The old rule that "practice makes per-

fect " is doubly true in learning to write, and is the only

principle that will successfully develop good pen-

manship.

Page 17: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

AIA.^UAL.J HOW TO BECOME A PENMAN.

8. Careless Scribbling.— Careless scribbling tends

rather to retard than to improve the writing. Each time

a copy has been carelessh' repeated it is an injury rather

than a benefit ; a going backward instead of going for-

ward. When practicing every stroke should mean some-

thing and be an effort to improve. Practicing with a

purpose by everlastingly keeping at it will master and

accomplish the high ideal. Writing is the result of

study combined with practice.

9. Written Copies.—After having once written the

copies, criticise your efforts before the next trial. By

thus picking out your faults or errors you are cultivating

the eye as well as the hand. Remember that unknown

faults can never be avoided or corrected, and your first

study should be to discover errors and faults and then

try to mend.

10. Letter Writing.—While learning to write pick

up as many correspondents as you can. Cultivate the

habit of corresponding with your friends as much as

possible. It makes a pleasant source of entertainment as

well as excellent practice for the improvement of your

penmanship. But be sure, however, and carry out the

following principles : After writing a letter once, look

it over carefully, detect the errors in composition and

spelling, then re-write it again and notice the imperfect

forms of letters and words, and then re-write it again.

He that is willing to take this rule to himself and faith-

fully carry it out in all his correspondence, will become a

good penman.

11. Writing Not a Special Gift.—It is often said

that writing is a special gift, and only the few can be-

come good penmen. This idea is not only fallacious but

exceedingly pernicious, as it tends to discourage many

pupils who write badly by leading them to believe that

it is impossible for them to become good writers. There

is scarcelj' a good penman to-day who is prominent be-

fore the people in the perfection of his art, who cannot

show penmanship of his youth as poor as the poorest.

Practice gives grace ; correct form and construction of

writing must be learned by study and practice, and the

hand that is stiff will become limber and phable, and the

eye that is uncultivated will soon detect the slightest

errors or deviations, and soon, unconsciously as it were,

an easy flowing style of penmanship will have been

mastered.

12. How to Practice.—There are various movement

exercises that are a help in hmbering up a stiff and awk-

ward arm and hand. We have given some in the follow^

ing pages, but it is a good practice to take a single letter,

study its different styles and practice it until improve-

ment is evident. Exercises made of small letters and

joining them together in a running exercise is an excel-

lent practice.

13. The Safe Rtile.—Everlastingly keep at it.

THE TRACING PROCESS [The Farmers"

BY THE TRACING PROCESS.

THE TRACING PROCESS.INSTRUCTIONS FOR OUTLINING PICTURES AND LETTERS FOR PEN DRAWING.

1. Tracing.— The Tracing Process has long been

known to some of the profession of penmanship, but it

has been kept a sort of a secret. Many penman have

paid $5.00 for the secret; some as high as $20.00. It is

the quickest and best known way to make a fac-simile

copy for pen work or pen drawing. It is simple, and a

child can make an exact copy of any picture just as

well as an older person.

2. Material.—Go to some druggist and ask him for a

sheet or two of oiled tracing paper ; if he hasn't it in

stock he can send and procure it for you at a small

expense.

3. How to Use It.—Take a slip or sheet of transpar-

ent tracing paper and place it on the picture to becopied; trace all the outlines that you desire to repro-

duce with a lead pencil, and be careful to keep the trac-

ing paper in the same position. Use plenty of weight

;

hold the tracing paper down so that it cannot movefrom the position that it was in when you began the

tracing. After you have done this, turn your tracing

paper over. Then place your tracing paper, blacked

side down, on your drawing paper, or where you wish

to make your drawing, and take a fine-pointed lead

pencil and trace over all the outlines and shadings of

the entire picture.

Thus j-ou print in

pencilings a perfect

copj- of the entire

picture on your

drawing paper. Af-

ter you have done

this it is a veiy easj-'

matter to finish the •*

picture with the pen

and ink by putting

ink on in place of

the pencilings, and

shade according to

the original, erasing

with a rubber after the ink is put on. Tracing over the

paper for cop3' only leaves the marks very light and can

easily be covered with pen and ink.

4. Completion.—After doing as above stated the workis ready to be completed, which is done by putting in the

rest of the shading wherever it maj- be thought necessary;

of course, it is necessarj' to run over the work with the

pen and cover the lead pencil marks that have been left

by tracing.

5. Drawing Animals.—The tracing process is aspe-

cially adapted for tracing human figures, deer, lions and

other animals ; it is also excellent to get an outline of

letters, but it is not so good for tracing birds. This

should be done with a free, off-hand stroke, in order to

look niceh', yet verj' good copies can be made.

6. The Delineator is very handy for the enlargemeiit

of pictures as for making copies same size.

Manual. IHOW TO KEEP BOOKS.

HOW TO KEEP BOOKS.1. Great Mistakes.—It is impossible to estimate the

mouey lost aunuall3^ directly and indirectly, through

careless methods of doing business. More than half the

lawsuits are the outgrowth of some neglected or care-

lessly kept accounts, and millions of dollars are lost an-

nually by the people of this countrj', because they will not

do business intelligently.

2. Important to Farmers.—As a rule farmers are the

most neglectful of all classes in keeping correct record of

their accounts; they trust too much to the merchants

and to other parties with whom they deal, or depend en-

tirely iipon memory, and many find it an expensive way,

for they could often hire a bookkeeper for an entire year

for the time and money lost in settling up a single diiH-

culty, the outgrowth of carelessness.

3. Hired Men.— Few farmers make any account or

record of the agreement with hired men. It is a serious

aeglect and a very unbusiness-like waj' to do business.

4. How to Write a Contract with a Hired Man.Write the name of the person employed, former resi-

dence, the date he begins work, the rate per month, the

time for which he is hired and such other conditions as

are agreed upon, either in the book for his account or

on paper. It is best to give the person employed a copyof the agreement as written in the account book.

5. Personal Account.—In dealing with a hired mandebit him or charge him for the amounts paid him andfor lost time, and credit him with the wages agreed upon,

and when the final payment is made or settlement agreed

upon, a receipt should be given in full of all demands to

date.

6. A Good Business Principle.—When you pa)- a

bill, alwa3'S take a receipt for the amount paid and file

these receipts away in a safe place. It is a good plan to

paste them in an old book, then they can be referred to

easily, and you will always have a degree of security

about you which may save you from some lawsuit or

from paying a bill the second time.

7. Keeping Accounts with Merchants.—Ifyou run

a credit account at any store, you should have a .smaU

pass-book in which the entries should be made by the

merchant. The book should be presented for entries

whenever an article is purchased, and the daj^ and date

specified and the articles correctly entered.

8. Cash Accounts. — It is a very simple and easy

thing for a Farmer or a Mechanic to keep a correct cash

account. Place on the debtor side all the cash received

On the credit side all the cash paid out. This prin-

ciple of keeping accounts is often one of the safeguards

of the family, and many persons of fortune to-day can

Page 38: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

HOW TO KEEP BOOKS. [The Farmers'

JAY GOJLD.

trace their success to their keeping a strict cash account

i:i their first struggles, and knowing where everj' dollar

came from and what became of it. People in order to be

successful in business must do business in a business-

like manner. Study carefully the " Safe Methods of

Business."

9. Washington said that agriculture was " the most

healthful, the most useful and the most noble emploj'-

mentofman." But this is only true when the soil is

suitably cultivated, the seed-time and harvest carefully

observed, and when intelligence and energj' are mani-

fested in every branch of the work.

10 The Sources of Wealth are chiefly agriculture,

manufacture, mining and trade.

11. The Means of Wealth are the outlays and re-

turns made with intelligence, industry and skilled labor.

12. Agriculture is the cultivation of the ground. It

includes grazing and the management of live stock. Thesoil, climate and market will generally indicate the kind

of products which will be most profitable. The farm

produces chiefly wheat, corn, rye, butter, beef, pork,

mutton and poultry.

13. Manufacture changes the raw material into the

forms suitable for use ; for example, the flour mill grinds

wheat into flour and corn into meal ; the shoe factory

makes leather into shoes ; the cotton factory spins cotton

into thread and weaves the thread into cloth, and the

starch factorv makes starch from corn.

-# Practical arjcl (Sornplete. #-

A Complete Education.—This is a practical age,

and no young man's or young woman's education is

complete without some knowledge of book-keeping and

commercial accounts.

Our advice, therefore, is to every 3'oung man whether

he expects to engage in active business life or not, that he

thoroughly master the subject of book-keeping and the

science of accounts.

Farmer and Mechanic-—The farmer and mechanic

have found out, by dear experience, that it pays to keep a

correct record of their business transactions instead of

trusting entirely to the parties with whom they deal.

Every man should know his own account and have a cor-

rect record of it.

A Great Necessity.—What the public wants is a

plain simple style of book-keeping, that will require the

the least amount of labor and j-et explain in full, the tran-

sactions with others. The rules and forms which wegive in the following will be not onlj' practical and help-

ful to all, but can be safely relied upon as a brief, sys-

tematic, comprehensive and correct form.

SINGLE ENTRY BOOK-KEEPING.Single Entry Book-keeping is the recording of

business transactions with persons only, and the books

used in single entry are the Day Book and the Ledger

also a Cash Book and Bill Book may be used as a part of

a set when deemed necessan.'.

A Single Entry Day Book is the book known in

law as the Book of Original Entrj' and should contain

everything that has been done or in other words a com-

plete history of the business,

6

A Single Entry Ledger is a Book of Accounts with

persons only. A Ledger proper represents a classifica-

tion of accounts.

A Cash Book, when kept in single entry Book-

keeping, should contain the items of all Cash received

and all Cash paid out.

The Form of the Day Book, is Simple. First

give the names of the persons to be debited or credited,

whichever the case may be, by placing the words "Debtor"

Page 44: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

36

or " Creditor," (abbreviated Dr. and Cr.) after the name.

If a man purchases anything and does not pay for it, he

is a debtor and must be debited ; and when he pays for

the same, he is a creditor and must be credited. In

looking over the following set, the student will easily see

when the term "Debit" or "Credit" is applied.

Practical Rules for Commencing Book-keeping.

First, credit the proprietor with the resources or what he

puts into the business. Second, debit the proprietor

HOW TO KEEP BOOKS [The Parmers

with ihe debts he owes or assumes. Third, personal ac-

counts with other persons put into the business, debit the

person with the full amount he owes, and credit the pro-

prietor with the amount of the indebtedness. Fourth,

in the transaction of business always debit the person

with what he owes, and credit a person when he pays his

account. When loaning a person money, he becomes a

debtor and is so entered in the book, and when he pays

his account, he is credited and is so entered in the book.

ARRANGING ENTRIES IN DAY-BOOK FOR POSTING.

Debit and Credit Rule for Personal Accounts.

Debit the person when they owe you, or you pay them

an account. Credit the person when j'ou owe them, or

they pay j^ou an account.

Buying and Selling on Account.—If you sell on

account, debit the person and describe the propertj' sold.

If you buy on account, credit the person from whom you

purchase.

Cash or Note.—If you buy or sell for cash, make no

Day Book entry, but enter the Cash in the Cash Book ; if

for note, enter in the Bill Book.

Cash in Part Payment.—If you seU property and

receive cash in part payment, debit the person for the

full amount sold, and credit him for the cash received,

and enter the cash in the Cash Book on the Dr. side. If

you buy property and pay part cash, credit the person for

the full amount and debit him for the cash paid, and enter

the cash in the Cash Book on the credit side.

Note in Part Payment.—If you buy property and

give your note in part payment, credit the person for

the full amount, debit him for the note and enter the

note in the Bills Payable Book. If you sell property and

receive in part payment a note, debit the person for the

full amount sold, and give him credit for the note, andenter it in the Bills Receivable Book.

Cash on Account.—If you receive cash of a person

on account, give him credit and enter the cash in the Cash

Book, on the Dr. side; or if you pay cash on account,

debit the person and enter on the Cr. side of the Cash

Book.

Bank Account.—An account with a bank is consid-

ered a personal account. Debit the Bank with the

amount you deposit, and credit the Bank when you give

a check upon it. An excess of debit will show balance

on deposit; an excess of credit will show amount over-

drawn.

Drawing a Draft.—The drawer of a draft should

credit the drawee when he draws a draft upon him. Thedrawee of a draft should debit the drawer when the draft

is paid on presentation or accepted for future payment.

Cash Entries.—Cash invested in the business, and

all cash and checks received, should be entered on the

debit side of the Cash Book, and all cash paid out on the

credit side.

Balance on Hand.—The difference between the

debit and the credit side of the Cash Book should equal

the balance on hand, as shown by actual count of moneyon hand. There can never be an excess on the credit

side of the Cash Book without error, as we can never pay

more than is secured. The Cash Book is closed by enter-

ing on the credit side in red ink the excess of the greater

with the remark "Balance on Hand." Single rule both

debit and credit columns, directly opposite, foot the col-

umns and double rule, then bring the red ink entry below

in black ink on the debit side, as a balance on hand with

which to start the next day.

The Sales Book contains a record of all the sales

of merchandise and may be used as a principal book from

which to post personal accounts to the Ledger, instead

of entering the same transactions in the Day Book.

An Invoice Book should contain a record of all

merchandise received, which is usually done by posting

all the invoice in a blank invoice book and indexing them

for reference. The transactions on account may be post-

ed directly from this book to the Ledger, the same as the

transactions in the Sales Book. Some however prefer to

enter them in the Day Book before posting.

The Sales Book, Invoice Book, Bill Books, and Cash

Book are the same in Double as in Single Entry.

Page 45: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

Manual.] HOW lu KEEP BOOKS. 37

DOUBLE ENTRY BOOK-KEEPING.

Double Entry Book-keeping is the process of re-

cording business transactions, so that each entry shall

have a debit and a credit of equal amounts. Accounts

are kept with both persons and things.

The Principal Books are, the Day Book, Cash Book,

Journal, and I^edger.

The Day Book is the book in which the entries are

first recorded, with the date and in the order of their oc-

currence. It should give a complete history of the tran-

sactions.

The Journal is the book in which entries to be madein the '^^edger are arranged.

^he Ledger is the book of accounts.

Rules for Opening a Stock Set of Books.—Debitthe resources and credit the liabilities, then debit or credit

stock for the difference. If the resources be larger, credit

the stock. If the liabilities be larger, debit the stock.

The proprietor's name may be used instead of stock.

At Commencing, a credit of stock shows the invest-

ment, and a debit insolvency ; after the books have been

opened, the credit stock shows additional investment or

gain, and the debit amount withdrawn or loss.

When Two or More Persons are doing business

as partners, we do not use the stock account, but open

a separate account with each of the partners, using their

individual names.

A Partnership Set is opened the same as a stock set,

only that you credit or debit each partner instead of

stock.

The Debit Side of a partner's account contains debts

assumed, capital withdrawn, and final losses, the same as

the debit side of the stock account.

The Credit Side of a partner's account contains all

investments, whether original or subsequent, and final

gains, the same as the credit side of the Stock account.

In a Partnership Business the Loss and Gain ac-

count is closed to the Partner's account, each name men-

tioned in Loss and Gain, dividing the gain as per agree-

ment.

Rule for Journalizing.—Debit what you receive,

and credit what j-ou part with ; or debit what costs value,

and credit what produces value.

The Debit and Credit of the Journal should be equal.

The Journal should be footed at the bottom of the page.

STATEMENT.THE results of the foregoing record will be found condensed and classified in the Statement which follows. A

Statement showing the condition of a business must of necessity exhibit its property and debts, or, as usually

expressed, its resources and liabilities. The sources from which these facts are obtained in the present instance,

so far as the record goes, are the Ledger, the Cash Book, and the Bill Book. The Ledger gives the debts due to

and from the concern, the Cash Book gives the amount of Cash in possession, and the BiU Book gives the Notes

and Bills Receivable and Payable. The value of unsold goods has to be obtained from actual inventory and

appraisement, as is the case in any system of Bookkeeping.

64 FORMS OF NOTES. [The Farmers'

HOW TO WRITE ALL KINDS OF NOTES.

1. THERE IS NO EXCUSE for any one not to be

able to write a Note or fill out a printed form. Every-

body should be familiar with the common form. It takes

but little study and little practice to attain that accom-

plishment to be able to write a note correctly. It is one

of the most common and simple business papers.

2. FORMS.—In the copies which follow there are all

the different kinds of forms used in business ; also all

the different forms of Indorsements, and further on in

this work will be found the law explaining all the dif-

ferent forms of business papers arranged for ready ref-

erence.

required. Most all printed forms are similar to this.

The above Note is given by a person who cannot write. All that is necessary is for Mr. Thompson to makethe "mark" or simply touch the pen while the mark is being made, and it becomes a legal Note and has as much"brce as though he had been able to write his name himself. It must, however, be witnessed and the nam^ (jf 41—

This is a Judgment Note. In order to collect this Note it is not necessary to sue it, as Judgment and Attor-

The Note of a Corporation or Companj^ should always be signed by the Corporation or Company name first,

and then by the President and Secretary'. By this means the ofScers individually will avoid personal responsibility.

They will only be held as officers of the Company and not as individuals. Great care should be used in makingone of the above Notes.

as much thereof as may be necessary, to the payment of this Note, and all necessary expenses or charges, holding tyi-u<ie^y

This Collateral Note is a note of very strong conditions. It is used where a person demands some other secu-

rity than personal security, and as in the above case, the Mortgage and Note are assigned, and they can be sold in

case the claims of the Note are not met.

A Collateral Note may represent a note, or mortgage, or bonds, or several notes without mortgage, or most

any paj)er can be put up as collateral security.

This is a Bank Draft issued by one Bank upon another. These Drafts are used for sending money to someparty at a distance. They are bought at the Bank, inclosed in a letter and sent to destination by mail. It is

always best, however, to have the draft made out in your name and indorse it in favor of the person to be sent to,

before sending it. It is the safest way.

1. Although the above scheme of the confidence man has been exposed time and time again, yet it still con-tinues to add yearly to its list of victims. A paper is drawn up wherein a farmer agrees to pay ten or twenty dol-lars when he has sold goods to a given amount. By tearing off the right-hand end of this paper, what is apparentlyan agreement for a small amount becomes a Promissory Note for a considerable sum. This Note is sold at a Bank,thereby becoming the property of a third and innocent party, and the signer of the agreement is called upon topay the Note.

2. NEVER SIGN A PAPER without carefully reading and examining the same. It is dangerous tosign a paper for an unidentified stranger.

1. In the blank for cents „ , the canvasser or pgent puts in some single figure, sa^' 7, that being understood tc be the reg-ular price per foot ; but after the contract is signed, the agent at his leisure quietly inserts a 6 before the 7, or some other figure,making the amount 67 cents per foot, instead of 7 cents as signed and agreed upon.

2. A swindling note is generally obtained, and the contract kept in the background ; but when the collector comes along and pre-sents the note backed by the contract in plain figures, the larmer sees that he himself has been struck by lightning while trying toprotect his house.

3. The note is generally in the hands of an innocent party, and according to law may be collected.

4. The agent canvassing the victim generally promises that the rodding of the house shall not cost over $28.00 or $35.00. Butthat man, however, never appears on the scene again.

h. Never deal with irresponsible persons. If you desire rods, employ your hardware merchants ; or if you desire anything in themachinery line, patronize honest and trusted dealers, and take no chances of " being taken in."

HOW TO MAKE ALL KINDS OF INDORSEMENTS.SAME AS USED IN ACTUAL BUSINESS.

§

BLANK INDORSEMENT.

This is a blank indorsement of the Note Form 1. {See Notes.) This form of indorsement holds the indorser

responsible for the payment ol the Note and it is the common way of indorsmg commercial paper when it is trans-

ferred, unless other forms are specified and agreed upoE,

INDORSEMENT IN FULL.

This form of indorsement is what is called an Indorsement in Full, and is Form 1, indorsed in favor of J. J.

Pool, who now becomes the specified owner of the Note, and if not paid by the maker he can call upon Furbush

to pay the Note. The liability is the same as in blank indorsement.

Page 89: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

Manual.] FORMS OF INDORSEMENTS.

INDORSEMENT WITHOUT RESPONSIBILITY.

This in law is called a Qualified Indorsement, and releases the indorser from all responsibility. If Isaac Will-

iams, Form 3 {see Notes), fails to pay the Note, no action can be brought against Harrison Trinkner. This formof indorsement is always a matter of agreement between the contracting parties, and the common form is always

used, if nothing is said to the contrary when a Note or other negotiable paper is purchased or transferred.

MONEY INDORSEMENTS.

Money indorsements should be made in the presence of the party paying the mouej'.

a receipt for money paid on a Note. It is the only safe way.It is best always to takt

A TRANSFER OF NOTE WITH INDORSEMENTS.

The title of the above Note passes from John Hoffman to Andrew Jay. The balance due on Note must bepaid to Andrew Jay, providing the Note was not due when transferred. If Notes are transferred after maturity the

debtor on Note can refuse to pay the new holder oi Note, but the original owner John Hoffman can collect Noteif he again secures possession of it.

GUARANTY OF PAYMENT.

This form of indorsement holds the indorser responsible, if he is properly notified when the Note becomes due.

In Illinois and some other States notice of non-payment is not necessary, but it is always best to notify indonsers

c: non-payment as soon as demand is made. All guaranties must be in writing and specify value received.

IMPORTANT POINTS ON MORTGAGES.1. Chattel Mortgages must be Executed and Acknowl-

edged.— It should be remembered that chattel mortgages arerequired in all states to be executed and acknowledged in strict

conformity with the statute of those states. Any material devia-tion from the provisions of the statute rendering the mortgagebad as against creditors and subsequent purchasers withoutnotice. In some states, as in Illinois, chattel mortgages onhousehold goods must be signed and acknowledged by the wifeof the mortgagor, and such mortgages can only be foreclosed bya court proceeding.

2. Notes Secured by Mortgage.—In some states also, as in

Illinois, the notes which are usually secured by the mortgagemust show upon their face that they are so secured or they arevoid, and in some states notes secured by a chattel mortgage

are not governed by the same rules which control other negoti-able papers, the laws of such states allowing any defense to bemade against a note so secured in the hands of a mortgageewhich could be made against the note in the hands of theoriginal payee.

3. Real Estate Mortgages.—The same strictness is notrequired in mortgages of real estate, although they should besigned and acknowledged with as great care as deeds, but mis-takes made in real estate mortgages do not have so serious con-sequences as those made in chattel mortgages.

4. A Crimiaal Offense.— It is a criminal offense for a personwho has given a chattel mortgage on personal property to sell

said property without notice.

98 LAW WITHOUT LAWYERS. [The Farmers'

LAW WITHOUT LAWYERS,A COMPLETE COMPENDIUM OF

Legal and Business Instructions.

1. What is Law?—Law is a rule of action, or in

other words, it is a direction from the governing power

of the country telUng us what we must or must not do.

2. Its Necessity.— Law in some form is necessary,

until people become so perfect, so wise and so good, that

they need no restraint whatever.

3. Sources of Law.— The Law-making power and

other sources of law are: first, the United States Consti-

tution; second. Laws of Congress; third, State Constitu-

tion; fourth, Statutes of the State; fifth, the Common Law.

4. Business Laws.—The State Statutes and the com-

mon law are most used in connection with business

matters.

5. The Common Law.—The Common Law consists

largely of unwritten rules and law, and not enacted by

representative bodies, but established long ago in

England, by long custom and usages, and adopted by

the different States, as a body of law. The Statutes of

the State or of the United States are of higher authority

than the common law, and the common law must alwa}'s

give way to the statutory whenever there is a confliction.

6. Ignorance of the Law.—It is a universal rule

that the ignorance of the law excuses no one. No one

can go into the court room and say he was ignorant of

the law. The laws are suppo.sed to be common property

and are supposed to be understood, and any violation, ig-

norantly or intentionally whatever the case may be, must

be punished according to the terms of law.

7. Municipal Law.—Municipal Law is, therefore, "ariile of civil conduct prescribed bj' the supreme power of

a State, commanding what is right and prohibiting what

is wrong."

8. Rights and Wrongs.—The subjects of Civil Laware Rights and Wrongs ; and these are divided into two

classes, private and public.

It is the duty of the constituted government to defend

rights and redress wrongs, whether they are public or

private.

9. Civil Injury.—The wrong done to an individual,

as the breaking of a contract, is called a Civil Injury. Awrong done to the State for which the law prescribes a

punishment, is called a Crime or Misdemeanor.

10. Plaintiff and Defendant.—When one seeks re-

dress through the courts, he is said to "bring a suit,"

and is called "The Plaintiff." The Party against whoma suit is brought is "The Defendant."

He who seeks redress for a wrong suffered must him-

self be innocent. '

The Laws and Rules Governing

THE WRITING AND TRANSFERRING OF ALL KINDS OF NOTES.

1. Definition.—A note is a written promise, signed

by the person promising to pay a certain sum of money

at a certain time, to a person named, or to his order, or

to the t)earer.

2. Two Kinds.—There are two kinds of notes, those

payable to order and those to bearer. (See Forms)

3. Time of Payment.—A note payable at a future

time is not due until the third day after the specified day

of payment. The three days of extension are called by

universal custom " Days of Grace." The day of payment

is generally called the day of maturity.

4. Parties to a Note.—The man who signs the

note is called the maker, and the party in whose favor

the note is drawn is called the payee.

5. Maker's Responsibility.—The person who signs

a note is under legal obligations to pay the note either to

the person in whose favor the note is drawn, or any

person he may transfer the note to before maturity.

6. Requisites of a Note.—The five things neces-

sary in a note to make it negotiable are: First, that the

date of payment be certain to come ; second, that it have

one of the two words, order or bearer; third, that the

amount be specified and certain ; fourth, that it be pay-

able in money only ; and fifth, that it be an unconditional

promise.

7. Endorsement.—Paper payable to bearer may be

transferred by deliver}', but paper payable to a certain

person or his order, must be endorsed.

8. Promissory Notes. -Promissory notes can betransferred after maturity, but are, however, subject to

any defense which might have been made against the

original p?vee14

9. Forgery.—Anj- person whose name is forged to

a Note, Draft, or any other commercial paper, is not

responsible, and the paper cannot be enforced against

him.

10. Fraud.—A person who signs a note and is not

aware that he signs his name to an agreement that he is

to pay a specified sum, notwithstanding this ignorance

can be held for the amount, provided the note is in the

hands of an innocent party. For instance, if a swindler

obtains a persons signature and afterwards writes a note

above it and sells the same to a banker or other party

who knows nothing about the circumstances, the party

whose name appears upon the note, though he wrote

nothing but his name on a blank piece of paper can be

compelled to pay the note, because it has been trans-

ferred into the hands of an innocent party.

11. Knowledge of Defects.—No one who receives a

note or other commercial paper knowing at the time

certain invalidating defects, gets no better right to col-

lect it than the one from whom he received it.

12. Lead Pencil.—A note written with a lead pencil

is good.

13. Persons Who Cannot Write.—A note given

by a person who cannot write must be witnessed, and

the person giving the same must make his mark, or touch

the pen while it is made. (See Form.)

14. Negotiability is that form of commercial paper

which permits to be transferred to another party, and

the party thus receiving it has the right to collect it and

receive all the benefits of its promises.

LAW V/ITHOUT LAWYERS—CHECKS, DRAFTS, RECEIPTS, ORDERS, DUE-BILLS. [The Farmers*

THE LAW OF WRITING AND TRANSFERRING CHECKS AND DRAFTS.

1. Drafts.—A draft is a written order, signed by one

person, ordering another person, to whom it is directed,

to pay a certain sum of money, at a certain time, to a

third person, or to his order, or to bearer.

2. Checks.—A check is an order on a bank, or

banker, to pay another person, or to his order, a certain

sum of money, immediately.

3. Difiference between Checks and Drafts.—

A

check is always drawn upon a bank or some person whocarries on a banking business, and it is always made paj'-

able immediately, by a simple order. A draft may be

drawn on a bank or on a private party, and may be madepayable on demand, or a certain number of days after

date, or after sight.

4. Days of Grace.—A draft payable at a future

time is not due until the third day after its specified day

of paj'ment. These additional three days are called

"Days of Grace." Drafts drawn at sight, or on demand,

and checks, have no Days of Grace. They are payable

when presented.

5. Acceptance of a Draft.—When a draft, payable

at some future time, is presented to the person on whomit is drawn, before it is due, and he agrees to pa\' it whenit becomes due, he writes the word "accepted," and the

date, and signs his name in red ink across the face of the

draft. The draft then is often called an acceptance.

6. Certified Checks.—Where a bank has funds onhand to meet the check, and the holder does not desire

immediate payment, the bank will certify the check.

This is done by the president or cashier by writing the

word "good" or "certified" across the face, with his sig-

nature. This gives the holder a claim against the bank,

and makes the bank responsible.

7. Negotiability.—Checks and drafts, in order to be

negotiable, must be made payable to order, or bearer, the

same as a note.

8. Transferring Drafts and Checks.—Drafts and

checks may be transferred the same as notes. If madepayable to order, they must be indorsed, either in full or

in blank. If payable to bearer, they can be transferred

without indorsement, although it is customary and

desirable to obtain the indorsement of every holder.

9. Presentment for Payment.—A check should be

presented for paj-meut at the bank as soon as possible

after its receipt. It is unsafe to delay, as in case the

bank should fail, the holder would have no right to

demand payment of the maker, if he failed to present it

at the bank within a reasonable length of time.

THE LAW AND RULES GOVERNING RECEIPTS.1. The Importance.—Thousands and hundreds of

thousands of dollars are annually spent in law-suits,

because people will not do business

in a proper manner. There are

many estates tangled up in difficul-

i ties, because when money was paid,

or other business transacted, the

proper receipts were not given or

preserved. Many lives have been

lost through the careless methods

of transacting business and not hav-

ing the proper receipts to show for

it; consequently diflnculties, feuds,

bad blood, and even murder ensued.

Never pay money unless you have

the proper receipt to show for it.

2. Definition.—A receipt is not a contract, it is only

evidence. Thus if a receipt should be given when there

was no payment really made, it would have no effect;

the debt would still remain. One is always at liberty to

prove the truth in spite of a receipt.

3. Mistake.—If the receipt has been made for a

greater or less amount than the bill or debt, adequate

proof of the error is all that is necessary, and the receipt

will be set aside.

4. The Important Feature.—If payment is madeon account, or for a special debt, or in full, it should be

so stated in the receipt.

5. Payment of Note or Check.—It is not neces-

sary to take a receipt on the payment of a note, check,

or draft, because the instrument itself becomes a re-

ceipt.

THE RULES AND LAW GOVERNING ORDERS AND DUE-BILLS.

1. Orders.—Orders are negotiable, but the person on

whom they are drawn is not under obligation to paythem, unless they have been accepted, for an order par-

takes the nature of a draft.

2. Due-Bills.—A Due-Bill is not generally payable to

order, nor is it assignable by mere indorsement. It is sim-

ply the acknowledgment of a debt;yet it may be trans-

ferred. Due-Bills do not draw interest, unless so specified.

Page 109: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

Manual.] LAW WITHOUT LAWYERS—FORGERY ; WARRANTIES.

FORGERY.1. Definition.—Forgery is the fraudulently making

or altering a written instrument. Forgery is more com-

monly committed by making a check, draft or note and

signing the name of some responsible person. It is

sometimes done bj' raising the amount, or by erasing the

amounts that are on the note, check or draft, whichever

the case ma}' be, and putting in larger amounts.

2. Not Comraercial Paper.—A forged instrument

is not commercial paper. Being false, it represents

neither contract nor property, and any person holding or

buying forged paper has no power to collect it.

3. One Whose Name is Forged, Cannot beMade Responsible.—The act is not his, and one cer-

tainly should not be held responsible for another's acts,

which are entirely unauthorized. Thus if a note is forged

in my name as maker, or a draft forged in my name as

drawer, or the acceptance forged in my name as acceptor,

or my indorsement forged upon any paper, I do not makethe contract and therefore cannot be made to fulfill it,

that is, to pay. So if my name is forged as the drawer

of a check, and the bank believing it genuine pays it,

the bank must lose rather than I. It makes no differ-

ence how careful or honest one is who takes forged paper;

he must always take the risk of its being a forgery.

4. Payment Under Mistake.—But the rule goes

still further. One whose name is forged, not only need

not pa}-, but even if he should be himself deceived by

the skillfulness of the forgery, and should pay, neverthe-

less, he may recover his money from the one to whomhe paid it. This is but one case of the general principle

that Money Paid Under a Mistake must be Refunded.

Thus, even if the supposed maker, or drawer, or indorser

should, after a careful examination, admit his signature

to be genuine and should pay, yet the one to whom hepaid would have to refund if the signature turned out to

be forged.

5. Transfer of Forged Paper.—The transfer of

forged paper adds no validity to the paper, as it is noth-

ing more or less than a piece of waste paper. The re-

sponsible party who transferred it is responsible for the

amount, but the paper itself is worthless. If a person

buys a forged note for $ioo and sells it to another for

$ioo, and the latter finds it to be forged, then the first

one will have to lose the amount.

6. Raising Amount.—Paper is sometimes forged byerasing the amount named in a genuine instrument and

putting in a larger amount. It is then perfectly valid as

to the original sum, but wholly void as to the excess.

Even though it is accepted or certified after being raised,

the acceptance or certification does not make the acceptor

or the bank responsible for any more than the original

sum. And if the excess should be paid it could be re-

covered.

7. Practical Suggestions.—The business suggestion

to be gained from all these rules about commercial paper

is, that in buying it, unless we are absolutely certain that

it is genuine and a valid contract in every respect, weshould be careful about those from whom we buy it, so

as to have some one responsible to fall back upon if it

turns out invalid.

THE LAW AND RULES GOVERNING WARRANTIES.1. Expressed or Implied.—A warranty may be

either expressed or implied that a certain thing when sold

is or shall be as it is promised in the agreement. For

example, a seller may warrant a horse sound, gentle, and

safe to ride or drive.

2. The Condition of the Warranty.—If the

goods or articles purchased are not what they are war-

ranted to be, the purchaser may take back the goods

and receive back the money paid, or he maj' claim

damages.

3. Buying Goods.—There is no implied warranty of

the quality of goods which can be inspected by the buyer

at the time of purchase, but the rule is that the buyer

must himself take care not to be deceived concerning

their quality.

4. Articles Made to Order.—Where an article is

ordered to be made for the buyer for a special purpose,

and the buyer relies on the skill and knowledge of the

maker to provide him with a suitable article, ihere wiU

be an implied warranty that the article shall be reasona-

bly adapted to its intended use.

5. Goods Must be Like Sample.—In a sale by

sample the seller impliedly warrants that the bulk is Uke

the sample; and, if the seller is the maker or producer of

the goods, that the goods have no secret imperfections.

But it must be a sale strictly by sample ; where the buyer

still intends to examine the bulk, it will not create any

implied warranty. The buyer has a right to examine

and return the goods, if they are not the same as the

sample.

LAW WITHOUT LAWYERS-CONTRACTS. [The Farmers'

HOW TO WRITE A CONTRACT.

RULES AND LAW GOVERNING CONTRACTS.1. How to Write a Contract.—It is a prevailing

opinion that onlj- lawyers can write contracts ; but this

is an erroneous idea, for the legal phrases or learning of

a lawyer is not at all necessar>' in order to make a con-

tract legal and binding upon its parties. A personwho can write a letter can write a contract, hence acontract is simply a written statement in plain lan-

guage what two or more persons agree to do or not to

do. A bare statement of facts and the proper signatures

make a contract as binding as though forty lawyersunited to write it. He who can write a note can just

as easily write a contract, for a note is nothing more orless than the simple form of a contract. A plain state-

ment of facts is as easily written as the terms and condi-tions of a note.

2. Errors.—If there are any grammatical errors or

misspelled words, it will not affect the legal force of thecontract in the least. The intent and purpose of theparties when writing the contract will be the interpreta-

tion placed upon it by the court, in case any legal ques-

tion should arise.

3. Definition.—A contract is an agreement betweentwo or more persons to do or not to do a certain thing.

The fundamental rule of law in regard to contractsis that every one must fulfill every agreement that hemakes, unless a new agreement has changed or set it

aside. Every person must keep his promise, or pay thepenalty or damages for not doing so.

4. Two Kinds of Contracts.—Contracts are either

written or oral, but it is alwaj-s best to have a writtencontract, as the subject matter is definite matter, so noquestion can arise as to the intentions of the parties

when the contract was written.

5. Oral Contracts.—Oral contracts are given byword onl3% and are either expressed or implied. An ex-

pressed contract is one definitely expressed in word?An implied contract is one implied from all the circum-

stances of the transaction.

6. Implied Contracts.—Implied contracts are quite

common and we shall meet them frequently. They arise

in those cases where, though there are no words of agree-

ment by either party, such as " I agree," or " I will," or" I promise," yet something is said or done which in re-

ality amounts to an agreement. Thus, if I buy goods in

a shop, I am compelled to pay for them, though nothingis said about paying or the price, for my being there,

asking for the goods, and taking them away, are equiva-

lent to my saying, "I will pay for them." My actions

say what my tongue does not. One is considered as

having agreed to whatever he knowingly leads to believe

he has agreed to.

7. Gratuitous Services give no Claim to Com-pensation.—There is no implied contract, because the

services were not requested. Were this not .so, any onemight force upon us, and force us to pay, what we did

not want. But if the benefit of anj-thing gratuitously

done, is retained when it could be refused, there arises

an implied contract to pay.

8. Who can Make Contracts.—All those undertwenty-one years of age are called minors, and cannot

make a contract except for the necessaries of life, school

books, and things of that character. Contracts are not

good when made with a person of unsound mind.

9. Consideration.—Every contract must have a con-

sideration, in order to make it good. A consideration i"

the thing which induces anyone to enter into a contr;iC5

Page 111: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

MviNUAL.] LAW WITHOUT LAWYERS.-CONTRACTS.

or au agreement, to do or not to do a certain thing. Theconsideration therefore must be au inducement or benefit,

or au equivalent in some way for the things to be doneQ- not to be done. One party must promise to do some-

thing as an equivalent to the other's promise. The fact

that the consideration is not sufficient, does not, as a rule,

affect the binding qualities of the contract. For instance,

a party may sell his property for as little as he pleases,

but he cannot afterward enter suit for its recoverJ^

10. Subscription.—A subscription to a church or a

charity is generally a promise without a consideration,

and cannot be enforced against the subscriber if he de-

clines to fulfill it. If, however, he has signed a subscrip-

tion paper in which the subscription of each person is

made the consideration of the others, the contract is

valid and he may be compelled to pay, as in the case of

any debt.

11. Consent.—No contract is good without the con-

sent of both parties. They must mutually agree to the

terms of the contract. Their minds must meet on the

agreement.

12. Performance.—The conditions of the contract or

agreement must be performed by one party in order to

compel the other party to perform his part. Ever>' party

to a contract must perform his part, or be willing to per-

form it, in order to compel the other party or parties to

perform their part or pay damages.

13. Breach of Contract.—For the breach of a con-

tract the remedy is generallj- an action at law for dam-ages. The measure or amount of damages to be given

is a fair compensation for the injury done. If no actual

loss is incurred, only nominal damages, as six cents, can

be recovered. In some cases where the amount of dam-

ages may be uncertain, the parties often agree on a

specified sum to be paid by one party to the other, if the

contract is broken. This is called "liquidated damages."

If the amount of damage is certain, however, the parties

cannot fix upon any sum in excess of the real damageas a penalty. The penalty will be reduced to the amountof the real damage.* 14. G-ambling Contracts.—Wagers or bets depend-

ing on chance, as a race, a game, or a lottery, or any

contingent event, are unlawful, and all contracts on ac-

count of money wagered are void. This is general!}'

the law throughout the United States, but the laws of

the various States differ very much.

15. Sunday Contracts.—All contracts made on

Sunday are void, except contracts which concern what

are known as "works of charity and necessity." It is

perfectly lawful to sell food and medicine on Sunday, for

these are necessities, but not other articles which mayjust as well be sold any other day. Contracts of sale of

• Deeds and notes made on Sonday are valid in Illinois and some other•a Sunday are valid and can be eufcreed,

such articles are void, and if the purchaser refuses to payfor the goods, he cannot be sued for the contract price,

but only for the reasonable value, which mav be and

often is much below the price.

* Deeds and notes made on Sunday are void. This

may sometimes be avoided by dating the document

ahead, as on Monday.* 16. Bribery.—Any contract, which directly or indi-

rectly tends to corrupt legislation, is absolutely void. Alobbyist, even if successful, cannot recover the promised

reward from his employer, much less a Senator, or a

member of Congress or of a State Legislature, who is

promised a money or other valuable consideration, for

his influence or vote. Such a contract, moreover, is a

criminal offence for which a legislator may be im-

peached, and for which any person concerned may be

indicted and punished.

17. Felony.—Any person who agrees to take moneyor value for refraining from exposing, accusing, or

prosecuting another person who has committed a felony,

such as murder, or theft, or seduction, is guilty of a crime.

All such contracts are absolutely void.

18- Disability.—Incapacity is never presumed in

cases of contracts ; but if it is alleged it must be proved

by the party making the allegation.

19. Natural and Artificial Incapacity.—Incapa-cities are natural, or artificial. Absolute duress, insanity

and imbecilit}', are examples of the first class; while mar-

riage and servitude are of the latter kind. Natural inca-

pacity is recognized, not created, by law. The incapa-

city of an infant, or an idiot, cannot be imposed upon, or

removed from, any one, by legislation. On the contrary,

the legal "infant" of twenty years, and the married

woman, having unquestioned natural capacity, are dis-

abled only by positive law.

20. Contracts Governed by the Law of theState in which they are made.—If one goes from

a State where he is under an artificial legal disability,

into a State where no such disability is imposed, thi dis-

ability is removed while he remains, and contracts he

executes there, could be enforced against him. Every

contract is to be construed according to the law of the

place where it is made.

21. Impossibility of Performance.—This is an-

other defence in an action for damages, for breach of a

contract. If a promi.sor is prevented from performing his

part, either by an act of God, or an act of a public

enemjr, or an act of the promisee, he is not liable to re-

spond in damages.

The performance must be rendered absolutely im-

possible; for the endurance of a mere hardship or

difficulty would not suffice. An act of God, in legal

states. The Supreme Court of Illinois has recently held that contracts mada

Page 112: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

104 LAW WITHOUT LAWYERS.-CONTRACTS ; LEGAL GIFTS. [The Farmers'

meaning, is an act, or event, over which man has no

control,—neither power to cause nor prevent.

22. Impossible in Its Nature.—If one promises to

-do that which is naturally and obvioush- impossible, as if

one promised to tunnel a range of mountains in a day,

for the passage of railroad trains, the contract must be

void from its inherent absurdity.

23. Partial Pasnnents.—In applying payments on

debts drawing interest, it is safe and equitable to follow

the rule that payments will first be applied to cancel the

interest due, and then to diminish the principal. If a

payment is made when no interest is due, then apply it to

cancel a part of the principal and the interest accrued on

such part. This will make it equally desirable for the

debtor to make payment, and the creditor to receive the

same. If it is stipulated in the contract that "interest

is payable annuall)-," and payment is made and accepted

when no interest is due, then in such case the payment

should diminish the principal. And if the interest is not

paid when it becomes due, it should also draw interest

;

but a contract for compound interest is never legally

presumed.

LEGAL GIFTS."*

1. Who Can Make Gifts.—Any person legally

competent to transact business, may give whatever he,

or she, owns, to any other person. A gift by a minor, a

married woman, an insane person, or a person under

guardianship, or under duress, would be void, or void-

able, according to the circumstances.

2. Delivery of Gift Necessary.—A gift must be

consummated, that is, the thing given must be delivered

before any legal right rests in the grantee. A promise

to give is not binding, as it is supported by no considera-

tion. Deliverj' may be actual or constructive.

3. Cannot Be Revoked by Donor.—A Gift made

perfect by delivery, cannot be revoked by the donor; but

if it prejudices the rights of existing creditors, it is void

as to them. It is not, however, void as to future credi-

tors, unless made under actual or expective insolvency,

or with a fraudulent purpose.

4. Gifts Because of Expected Death Revoka-

lale.— Gifts because of expected death are revokable

by the donor if life is continued ; even after delivery and

acceptance. Such gifts are held to have been made be-

cause death was supposed to be at hand; and if it does

not ensue, the gift is defeated, as the death, which was

the cause of the gift, has not taken place.

5. Possession.—In order to make a gift absolutely

good, possession should be given when the gift is made,

and thereby no change of mind or subsequent prejudice

can change or revoke the transaction, if made in good

faith and without deception.

They made him a Present and sent him away.

MVNUAL.] LAW WITHOUT LAWYERS—MARRIAGE CONTRACTS. '" '

105

Engagements to Marry; or. Marriage Contracts.1. Contracts to Marry in the Future.—Mutual

promise by a man and a woman to marrj' at some future

day, constitute a valid contract.

2. A Marriage Contract.—A marriage is a civil

contract, and is entered into by the mere consent of the

parties. If the man says to a woman, "Will you marry

me?" or words to that effect, and she says "Yes," or

words that imply an affirmative answer, it is by law an

agreement or promise of marriage, and both parties are

legally held to carry out in good faith the promises thus

made.

3. Breach of Promise.— If either party refuses to

carry out the contract, he or she is guilty of breach of

promise, and may recover damages of the other party.

It is not very often, however, that the man sues the

woman, though he has the right to do so if she fails to

make good her promise.

4. Necessary Proof.—Generally in case of a law-

suit for breach of promise, there are no direct witnesses,

as people generally become engaged without the presence

of a third party, but the engagement may be implied by

the conduct of the party sued.

5. Implied Evidence.—The promise of marriage is

implied from circumstances, such as constant visits, pres-

ents, or open declarations of the parties, the reception of

parents or friends, as an engaged couple, without any ob-

jections from the party accused. There are many ways

of expressing serious intentions without an open declara-

tion in words. Conduct speaks louder than words.

6. Excuses for Breaking the Promise.—A re-

fusal may be justified on the ground of the bad character

or conduct of the other party;poor health of either party

is sometimes a good excuse, but not generally. If the

woman were a widow or divorced, and concealed this

fact from the man, this justifies a refusal to marry on his

part.

7. Time of Marriage.—When a man promises to

marry a woman without stating any special time, the

law holds him guilty of breach of promise, unless he is

ready to fulfill his engagement within a reasonable

time, five years was held by law as being an unreason-

able time.

8. When a Promise is Not Binding.—If either

party is under twenty-one years of age, he or she is not

bound by promise to marry, and the law will excuse them

any time from making good the promise; but, if the manis over 21 years of age, he can be held, and must makehis promises good or pay the damages.

marry on his part, while not a crime, subjects the per-

son so doing to heavy damages in a civil action for a

breach of promise to marry, the seduction being used

in aggravation of the ordinary damages allowed in

actions for breach of promise to marry.

10. A Cowardly Act.—A young man who makespromises of marriage to a j'oung lady, or gives hc-r reason

to believe that he is sincere in his visits and intentions,

and then without excuse or cause devotes his attentions

to another, commits a cowardly act. No honorable young

man will do it.

No young man has a right to demand a younglady's exclusive company, without some definite under-

standing, and a young lady is very injudicious, if not

foolish, if she receives the attentions of a young man,

who claims her entire society, without some understand-

ing or promise of sincerity. When the promise of mar-

riage has once been made, it should be kept in good faith,

unless both parties mutually agree to dissolve. The law

always requires the promises of marriage to be met in

good faith.

I06 LAW WITHOUT LAWYERS- RELATION OF PARENT AND CHILD. [The Farmers'

THE LAW GOVERNING THE RELATION OF PARENT AND CHILD.

1. Ancient Authority.—In past ages the father was

by custom considered as absolute monarch of the home.

In the oriental countries of today, the same custom

still prevails ; modern progress, and modern ideas, how-

ever, have changed old customs, and the authority of the

parent in civilized countries has been considerably limit-

.

ed by law.

2. Rights of Parents.—The parent has control of

his minor child, and has all reasonable authority to en-

force obedience. As long as the parent treats his child

properly, no one has a right to interfere with his author-

ity, or take the child away and retain him against the

wishes of the parent.

3. A Runaway Child.—A child has no right to leave

home without permission of the parent, and should a

child run away he can be brought back by force. If rel-

latives or other parties keep him and refuse to give him

up, the parent by legal process can obtain possession of

his child, unless it can be shown that the father is brutal,

or is not capable on account of drunkenness or other

causes to take proper care of his child.

4. Adoption.—Any child, whether its parents are liv-

ing or not, may be adopted. In that case the parent is

no longer entitled to the custody, but the adopting person

is. The child cannot be adopted without the consent of

its parents, if they are living, but the consent having once

been given, cannot be revoked. If the child is over

fourteen years of age, it must also consent to the adop-

tion. Under any circumstances the court has the right

to refuse to permit the adoption if it considers that the

person petitioning is not a proper person to have the

custody.

5. Method of Adoption.—Application must be

made at the county court, and the judge will consider

the application and will pass upon it.

6. Punishment of Children.—A parent has a right

to punish his minor child, providing he is not gfuiltj^ of

cruelty. Brutalitj' is a crime, punished by severe legal

penalties. The parent must be reasonable in his punish-

ment, leave no bruises or in any way injure the health

of the child.

7. Right to Earnings.—A parent is entitled to all

the earnings af his minor child. If the child should re-

fuse to turn over his earnings to the parent, the employer

of the child may be notified, and be compelled to pay the

parent onlj'.

8. Special Rights.—The parent may, however, makefree his child from all obligations to himself and allow

the child to collect his own wages and do for himself.

When a parent thus makes public such a declaration, he

cannot thereafter collect the child's wages.

9. The Property of the Child.—A parent maycontrol the earnings of the child, yet he has no control of

the property belonging to the child, either acquired by

gift, legacy or any other way. If a parent should appro-

priate his child's property, it would be just as criminal in

the eyes of the law as stealing any one else's property.

10. Parents' Obligation to Support.—Parents are

legally held for the support of their minor children. If

a child has property, it does not relieve the parent from

the support of his child; he however can apply to court

and get permission to use a part, or all of the income of

the property for the child's support.

11. Illegitimate Children.—It is a parent's duty to.

support even an illegitimate child. Such a child has

legally no father, but his putative father, as he is called^

may be compelled by the overseers of the poor to fur-

MAiNUAL.] LAW WITHOUT LAWYERS.—PARENT AN'ii Cnli^D ; RENTING LAND.

pish the i.kild with reasonable support, so that it shall uot

become a "burden on the parish." All children born in

wedlock are legitimate, unless it is proved that the hus-

band could uot possibly be the father. The adultery of

the wife cannot affect the legitimacy of the child. Heis conclusively presumed to be the child of the husband-

It makes no difference how soon after the marriage the

child is born. A child born the same day as the mar-

riage, if subsequent to the ceremony, is legitimate, pro-

vided there is good reason for believing that the husband

js the father.

12. Effect of Illegitimacy.—An illegitimate child

cannot inherit from its father, but may inherit from its

mother. It may take a legacy under the will of its

putative father, but if there is no will it can only inherit

from its mother.

13. Children's Obligations.—Where the parents are

unable to support themselves, the child is legally held

for their support and care, but it must be first shownthat the parent, or parents, are unable to support them-

selves.

1-1. Crimes.—The parent cannot be held for crimes

committed bj- his minor child. If a child commits a

premeditated crime, he is personally liable.

1.3. Guardian.—If a child has no parents living, a

guardian ma}- be appointed, or he maj' appoint his ownguardian, who will in a legal sense exercise the preroga-

tive of a parent.

RENTING L-7XND.

The Law of Leases and Tenants.1. Definition.—A Lease is a contract b\- which the

temporarj' use and possession of lands and buildings is

granted by one person to another.

2. Parties.—The owner or the part}- making the

lease is the lessor or landlord ; and he to whom it is made

is the lessee or tenant. The charge, which the landlord

makes for the use of his property, is the rent.

3. Oral or Written.—A lease must be in writing if

the property is to be let for more than one year. Anoral lease of land for the period of one year is good and

binding on both parties, but otherwise it creates only a

tenancy at will. A lease is usually made for a certain

length of time, with, perhaps, a privilege of renewal at

the end of the lease. Dwelling houses are usually rent-

ed for a year, with the rent payable quarterly.

4. Things Implied.—A lease will carry with it to

the tenant everything belonging to the landlord which is

necessary for the proper use and enjoyment of the prop-

erty leased. Thus, the words "house," "farm," "store,"

etc., unless the}- are specially defined in the lease, pass

.everything to the tenant usually meant by them.* 5. Form of a Lease and What It Should Spec-

ify.—Leases, especially for terms of any length of time,

should be executed under seal, as are other conveyances

of real estate. Such a lease should recite the names of

the parties, the date for beginning the lease, and the title

,which the landlord has in the property. It should next

state the consideration, which is usually the rent. Thenfollow the words, which give effect to the lease, "grant,

.demise and farm-let" being the words commonly used.

They are accompanied by a description of the premises

to be leased.

6. Covenants of a Lease.—Most leases contain cov-

enants setting forth the agreements of the two parties

in regard to the payment of taxes and insurance, renew-

als of the lease, modes of cultivation (if it is a farm),

fixtures, etc. A lease should also provide for a forfeiture

of the lease on a non-payment of the rent, or a breach

of a covenant. This will enable the landlord to re-enter

and eject the tenant in case of a breach of covenant or a

failure to pa}- the rent when due.

* 7. Leases That Must Be Recorded.—Leases for a

long period of years must be recorded to insure tbeir

validity against other parties without notice. Ordinarily

this is so of leases for more than seven years; but in

some States leases for a less number of years, or even

for one year, should be recorded.

8. Implied Covenant.—In all leases under seal there

is an implied covenant that the lessor has a good title to

the property leased. In all leases there is an implied

covenant that the tenant shall have undisturbed posses-

sion of the premises.

9. Renewal.—If a landlord covenants to renew the

lease upon its expiration, he must renew it on the same

terms as before. But this covenant will not become a

part of the new lease, so that the landlord will have to

renew it also, unless it clearly appears that the renewals

were to continue indefinitely at the desire of the tenant.

10. Repairs.—A landlord is not under obligation to re-

pair the premises, unless it is so expressly agreed. Even

Page 116: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

io8 LAW WITHOUT LAWYERS.—RENTING LAND, [The Farmer^

though the house becomes dilapidated and even uninhab-

itable, the landlord is still not bound to make repairs.

There is also no implied covenant that the premises are

suitable for the purposes for which they are leased.

11. Taxes.—A landlord is bound to pay the taxes,

unless the tenant covenants to do so.

12. Provision to Re-enter and Eject Tenant.

Unless there is a covenant allowing the landlord to re-

enter and eject the tenant on his failure to pay the rent

when it is due, he has only his remedy as for any other

debt. If such a provision is inserted in the lease, the

landlord must make a proper demand on the exact day

the rent is due, in order to ensure his right to enter.

13. A Tenant's Duties.—Except by express agree-

ment, he is not bound to make repairs. In general,

however, he is bound to leave the premises wind and

water tight at the end of the lease. He must therefore,

make any repairs necessary to preserve the house from

actual injury, for instance, by shingling, replacing bro-

ken glass, etc. If he chooses to make other repairs, he

cannot enforce a claim against the landlord to repay him

for such repairs.

14. Payment of Rent.— A tenant is, of course,

bound to pay his rent promptly as it becomes due.

15. Return the Premises in Good Condition.

If a tenant covenants to return the premises in good re-

pair, reasonable wear and tear excepted, he is bound to

rebuild in case they are injured or destroyed by fire.

Even if there is no such covenant in the lease, he is still

bound to pay rent, though the building is destroyed.

Therefore, a lease should provide that, if the premises

become wholly or in part untenantable by fire, the rent

should cease or abate proportionably ; and that the

premises shall be returned in good repair, except in

case of injury by fire or other unavoidable accident.

Statutes have made a similar provision in a number of

States.

16. Cultivation of Land, and the Harvestingof Crops.—A tenant of a farm is bound to cultivate it

in such manner as good husbandry requires. If his lease

is for an uncertain period, or if it is at will, and is ter-

minated by his landlord, he has a right to harvest such

annual crops as he has planted and are growing at the

time his lease is ended.

17. Tenant May Under-let.—A tenant may under-

let, unless there is an agreement that he shall not, but heis still personally bound to the landlord for the rent.

He may also assign the whole lease, unless there is aaagreement to the contrary. He should notify his land'

lord of the assignment.

18. Transfer of a Whole Lease.—The transfer of

a whole lease is an assignment, and is entirely distinct

from the transfer of any part less than the whole, or aaunder-lease. Therefore, a covenant not to do one of

these two things, will not prevent a tenant's resorting to-

the other. Any express covenants made in the lease can

still be enforced against him by the landlord; but im-

plied covenants pass with the assignment.

19. Termination.-rWhen a lease is for a definite

period, the tenant must leave at the end of this period, of

the landlord has a right to turn him out.

20. Tenant at Suflfrance.—If a tenant holds over

at the end of a lease, or if he is an under-tenant, and

holds over after the lease of his landlord has expired^

without the original lessor's consent, he becomes a ten«

ant at sufirance ; and the landlord can turn him out with-

out giving him notice to quit. A tenant at sufirance is

not liable for rent.

21. Tenant at Will.—But where a lease is created

orally, or where a tenant holds over, after his lease ha»

Page 117: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

Manual. LAW WITHOUT LAWYERS.—RENTING AND SELLING. 109

expired, with his landlord's consent, he is a tenant at

will, that is, the lease may be terminated at the will of

either party. A tenant at will, however, must have duenotice to quit from his landlord, and give due notice of

his intention to quit, before he can be turned out or

leave.

22. Notice to Quit.—This notice to quit must be

given in advance, and usually must be of the samelength of time as the period between rent days. Thenotice should also terminate on a rent day; but if the

rent is in arrears, notice may be given at any time, andmay be for a shorter time, usually fourteen days. Thelaws in the different States, in regard to notice, are not

at all uniform, however. The notice should also be in

writing, and should specify the day on which the tenant

is to leave.

23. Tenant's Intention to Quit.—A tenant's notice

of his intention to quit is in general subject to the

same rules as the landlord's notice. It should be given

to the one to whom he is liable for his rent, or to his

authorized agent. The death of a tenant at will, or the

assignment of his lease, would terminate it, though the

landlord might treat the assignee of a tenancy at will as

a tenant at will.

24. Tenancy Prom Year to Year.—In most States

a tenancy from year to year has grown out of the tenancy

at will. It is a general lease made orally, where rent is

paid yearly, or at equal parts of a year, and is considered

a lease for a year which can only be terminated at the

end of the year, by a notice given six months in advance.

If the tenant is allowed to hold over into the second yearwithout notice, he will be considered as holding for this

second year; and so on from year to year, until either

party terminates it by giving the proper notice. Thenotice probably need not be for so long a period as .six

months in some States. If the oral lease was made for adefinite length of time, it terminates at the end of that

time without notice, but may be continued as a tenancyat will, or from year to year. A tenancy from year to

year may be assigned. In Massachusetts and Maine ten-

ancies from year to year are not recognized.

25. Fixtures.—Those things which are attached to

the premises by the tenant, with a clear intention to

remove at the expiration of his lease, may be taken awayby him when he leaves. But those things which havebeen permanently attached, cannot be taken away. Theintention of the parties, however, is to govern these re-

movals, espe-nally if that intention is expressed in thelease.

26. What Can be Removed.—There are several

tests which indicate, in a general way, what may be re-

moved by a tenant. One test is, if the things are fastened

with screws, or in-any other way, so that they can be read-

ily removed without injury to the premises. Anothertest is, if by the removal of the fixtures, he can still re-

store the premises to the condition in which he foundthem. It should be said that the law is lenient to tenants,

so long as they follow these reasonable rules. Fixtures

used in trade or manufacture may almost all be removed,so long as the premises can be substantially restored.

THE LAW AND RULES GOVERNING SALES.1. A BiU of Sale.—A Bill of

Sale is not a document necessary

to a sale. A Bill of Sale is used

when it is thought best to have

some formal instrument showingthe transfer, as where one sells

his business and his stock in

trade to another. The inventory

would be on another sheet andenumerate all the articles in detail and should be signed.

2. A Sale is an Agreement to Exchange Prop-erty for Money Only.—If it is an exchange of prop-erty for property, it is a trade or barter and not a sale.

3. Requisites of a Sale.—There are certain condi-tions that must exist before a sale can take place. First,

the property must be in existence; secondly, it mustbelong to the seller ; thirdly, a particular property mustbe referred to or set apart.

4. Delivery.—Delivery is not

essential to complete a sale, as

between the buyer and seller, for

the buyer has a right to take the

goods when he pays for them,

but not until then.

5. Quality.—If there was noexpress agreement as to quality

or fitness, the buyer must take

the risk and he is bound to keep the goods he purchased,

unless he can show fraud or misrepresentation on the

part of the seller.

6. The Sale of Land.—All contracts or agreements

for the sale of land must be in writing, and some part or

portion of the money must be paid as a consideration in

order to hold both parties to the conditions of the con-

tract. Contracts relating to real estate are of a different

character from those concerning personal property. By

Page 118: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

LAW WITHOUT LAWYERS.—SALES ; CHATTEL MORTGAGES. [The Farmers'

the Statute of Frauds, no agreement concerning the«sale

of real estate, or any interest therein, is valid unless im-

mediately executed, or some note or memorandum of the

same be made in writing and signed by the party to be

charged, or by his authorized agent. The delivery of the

deed of conve3"ance, duly executed, is a couvej-ance

of the title.

7. A Distinction Between a Contract of Sale

and a Contract to Sell. — There may be a binding

contract between two parties, one agreeing to sell a

given thing for a given price, and the other agreeing

to buy that thing and pay that price; but still no prop-

erty is transferred b}' that contract. Such a contract

is executory, and may be entirely valid, ev n if it relates

to the sale of goods not yet manufacture ->r of produce

not yet existing. If I contract to sell tht irn I expect

to harvest next year for so much per bushel, I am bound

to do as I promise, if I have a consideration for that

promise; but evidently no title passes to a purchaser,

for I as yet have no corn to which I can give a title.

This is of the same nature as any other executory

contract.

8. Grain and Vegetables.—Grain and vegetables

cannot be sold or a Chattle Mortgage given on themuntil the grain is sown or the vegetables planted.

9. The Seller's Lien.—The seller has a lien on the

goods for the price, and may refuse to deliver themuntil that is paid. But if it was agreed that credit

should be received for the goods, the purchaser may de-

mand them without tendering the price. In the case of

sale for immediate payment, (which is understood if there

is no agreement to the contrary,) and the price is not

paid bj' the buj'er, the seller may either rescind the sale,

or sell the goods under his lien and look to the purchaser

for the balance of the price, if they do not bring the

amount ; or if they bring more than the price agreed to

be paid, he, selling under the lien, must pay over the

surplus to the buyer.

10. Buying by Sample.—If a thing is sold by sam-

ple, it is warranted as good as the sample. If the buyer

has an opportunit)' to examine the thing and does not,

neither gets an express warranty, he takes the risk and

should not afterwards complain. If there is some hid-

den defect known to the seller, he must disclose it, or at

least not conceal it if inquired after by the purchaser.

If he diverts attention and evades, and thus deceives the

buyer, it is a fraud and would be ground of avoidance.

11. The Buyer's Caution.—In a word, whatever is

the subject of a sale, whether real or personal property,

the rule "Let the purchaser beware" applies. No one

should be influenced by the puffs of owners, the opinion

of outsiders, or flattering guesses of anybody. If you

have any doubts, demand express warranties in a form

to be proved, and if they are refused, then keep your

money.

12. No Title.—If a person bu5's goods of anj' party,

and these goods prove to be stolen goods, the purchaser

has no title whatever. If a purchaser buys land, and

finds that the seller did not own it and had no claim

upon it, the purchaser has no title whatever. Great care

should therefore be exercised in buying real estate, and

see that there is a good title to it. A few dollars expend-

ed in this wa3' may save hundreds.

13. A Sale of Notes, Mortga^ges, Etc.—Notesmay be sold bj'. their proper assignment, provided the

notes have not matured. Mortgages can be sold by fill-

ing out an assignment, and go before a Notary, and

liave it acknowleged. Mechanics liens, or any other

liens upon property maj^ be sold by the assignment of

the claim.

THE L-KiAZ HND RULES GOVERNING

CHATTEL MORTGAGES.1. Definition.—A Chattel Mortgage is a sale of per-

sonal property as security for some debt or other obliga-

tion, on condition that if the money is not paid with

interest as agreed upon, the Chattel Mortgage becomes a

valid sale of the property which it represents.

2. How to Write a Chattel Mortgage.—Theform of a Chattel Mortgage is very simple. A blank

may be procured and filled Out as shown in this book.

But any writing covering the conditions as given in the

form is just as good.

* 3. Chattel Mortgages Must be Filed.—TheMortgagor or seller usually retains the property mort-

gaged in his possession. Therefore, in order to protect

the mortgagee's or buyer's interest from creditors of the

mortgagor or subsequent purchasers from him, the mort-

gage must be filed in the office of the town or county

clerk, according to the statute laws of the place where

they are given.

4. Equity of Redemption.—The statutes always

provide that the mortgagor shall have a further time after

Page 119: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

IVfANUAL.] LAW WITHOUT LAWYERS—MORTGAGI^S.

the debt is due, in which to redeem the property. This

is called an "Equity of Redemption," and is commonlyfixed at sixty da)-s. At the end of this time, the mort-

gagor loses all right to the property. But Chattel Mort-

gages almost alwaj's contain a power of sale, by which

the mortgagee may take the property immediately if the

debt is not paid at its maturity, and sell it at public auc-

tion, or at private sale if the mortgage so provides. If

there is a surplus from such sale after payment of the

debt and expenses, it belongs to the mortgagor.

5. Stcck of Goods.—A merchant cannot mortgagea stock of goods if it is the intention of the parties that

he may sell and replace the same in the usual course

of business as against creditors. Such a mortgage is

good between the parties.

6. Assigning Interest in Mortgaged Property.

The mortgagee may assign his interest in the mortgaged

property, and his assignee then acquires all his rights

and duties. The mortgagor may also assign his interests

in the property, that is, his equity of redemption, subjeC

of course to the rights of the mortgagee.

]VIOR:TG.fVOE:S.

JOHN, IF YOU HAD NEVER SIGNED THAT MORTGAGE, WE WOULD NOT BE IN THIS CONDITION TO-DAY,

1. Definition.—A mortgage is a conveyance of real

•estate as securit}' for a debt or other obligation, that be-

comes void if the debt is paid or the obligation for which

it was given is performed.

2. Mortgagor and Mortgagee.—The party giving

"Jie mortgage is called the mortgagor, and the one to

'A'hom it is given, the mortgagee.

3. Form of Mortgage.—A mortgage is, in form, a

deed; and all the formalities of signing, sealing, witness-

ing, acknowledging and recording are ascessa;-,' tc its

validity to the same extent as is in case of a deed. Amortgage, however, contains a clause, providing that onpayment of the debt with interest, or performance of the

obligation on or before a certain data, the conveyance

shall be defeated.

4. Foreclosure.—In case the mortgage is not paid, a

proceeding may be begun to foreclose, that is to cut ofi'

the right of redemption.

Page 120: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

MORTGAGES—LEGAL PRINCIPLES OF LAW. [The Farmers'

5. Different Methods of Foreclosure.—There are

many different methods in the different States, of enfor-

cing a mortgage, and obtaining a foreclosure. Perhaps

the most common mode is by bringing a bill in a court of

•equity to obtain a decree of the court, that, if payment is

not made within a certain time (often a period fixed by

statute), the property shall be sold publicly and the pro-

ceeds applied to the payment of the debt and the costs of

the sale. The surplus, if any, then belongs to the

mortgagor.

6. A Power of Sale.—In order that the security

may be enforced more promptly than by means of a

foreclosure, it is now quite common to insert in mort-

gages a power, by which, if the debt is not paid or the

obligation performed when it becomes due, the mort-

gagee may, after a certain number of days, sell the prop-

erty at public auction. After reimbursing himself andpaying the costs of the sale, the surplus, if there is any,

then belongs to the mortgagor.

7, Assigning a Mortgage.—A mortgage may be

assigned, and the purchaser or the assignee takes the

same interest in the property as the mortgagee had, sub-

ject to the mortgagor's rights. An assignment should

be executed, delivered and recorded in the same manneras a deed.

THE LEGAL PRINCIPLES OF LAW.1. Definition.—A mortgage on real estate is nothing

more nor less than a sale of the land on certain condi-

tions. But the sale is not complete if the money is paid

for which the mortgage was given. Mortgages are

always security for some debt or liabilit}-.

2. Parties.—Parties signing and giving a mortgageare called the mortgagor. The parties in whose namethe mortgage is given are called the mortgagee.

3. Redemption.—When the debt for which the mort-

gage is given is paid, the mortgagor has his rights

restored. This right is called the right of redemption,

and cannot be taken away without a judicial sale or bythe mortgagor's consent. The right remains, with cer-

tain limitations, after default in payment of the debt as

expressed by the mortgage ; and the failure to performthe obligation is compensated by interest.

4. Foreclosure.—The cutting off of all the rights to

redeem the property is called foreclosure. This can only

take place in case the mortgagor fails to meet the paj--

ments or agreements of the conditions stated in the

mortgage. The Statutes of the State must be strictly

followed, or the sale made under foreclosure will not begood.

5. Deficiency.—When the mortgaged property is sold

by foreclosure and the amount is not sufficient to paythe debt, then suit can be brought against the party for

deficiency. The mortgagor's signature on a note securedby a mortgage, does not relieve him from paying the full

amount of the note if the property mortgaged is not suf-

ficient to pay it.

6. Part Payment.—The holder of a mortgage can-not be compelled to take payment for part of the mort-gage when it is all due.

7. Transfers.—Whatever transfers the title to the

debt, will also transfer the title of the mortgage, which

is the securit}' of the debt.

8. Assigning Mortgages.—The proper mode of as-

signing a mortgage is by endorsing the assignment or

transfer upon the mortgage, or by a writing referring to

and describing it. If the purchaser has no such writing,

he cannot forclose under the powei of sale, but he can

have the same remedies in equity by way of court

proceedings.

As a general rule, the assignee of a mortgage becomes

owner in all the rights of the mortgaged premises which

the assigner possessed as mortgagee.

9. Renewing the Notes of a Mortgage.—If the

mortgage is given to secure the payment of certain

promissory notes, and the notes are renewed and the

time of payment thereby extended, such renewal is not

a satisfaction of the original debt, of which the notes aSre

only the evidence, and that to take a new or substituted

note does not pay the debt.

10. Execution.—The mortgage should be signed by

the mortgagor and witnesses the same as a deed and

delivered to the mortgagee.

11. Acknowledgment.—It should be acknowledged

as a deed is, and with the same formalit3^ The acknowl-

edgment of a mortgage is made for the same purpose as

the acknowledgment of a deed; that is, to put the instru-

ment in a condition for record.

12. Recording.—The mortgage must be recorded in

the county where the real estate is situated. Otherwise

it is not good. A recording is not necessary as between

the two parties who make the contract, but in case o/

transfer, or loss of papers or burning of the mortgage it

is alwaj's best to have it recorded.

PROPERTY THAT CANNOT BE TAKEN FOR DEBTS.

1. Liabilities for

the Debts— A cer-

tain amount of prop-

erty is now, by the

provisions of the stat-

utes of the various

States, exempt from

the liabiHty for the

debt of the owner, and

cannot be taken by

the Sheriff on execu-

tion. The amountvaries greatly, some

•States being much uio:e liberal than others.

2. Homesteads.—If such property consists of real

estate, it is called a " homestead." The value of a home-

stead is usually Hmited to a certain amount, as $i,ooo, for

the purpose of exemption. If the land is worth more,

it is sold by the Sheriff; $ 1,000, or whatever the amount

limited by law may be, is paid to the debtor, and the

surplus goes to the creditor.

3. Owner Must Be Head of Family.—In order

io be entitled to claim a homestead in land, the debtor,

in most States, must be a resident householder and the

head of a famih'. An unmarried person with no family

<Jepending on him for support is obliged to give up all

his land lor the payment of his debts, and cannot, as a

rule, keep as much personal prop-

erty exempt as the head of a family.

4. Family of Deceased Debt-or May Claim. — If any debtor

dies, leaving a wife or children, or

both, these persons may claim the

same exemption of homestead and

personal property as that to which

the debtor was entitled. A policy

of insurance on the life of the debt-

or in favor of the wife or children,

cannot be claimed by the creditors,

but the insurance money must be

paid to the wife or children only,

and is free from all debts.

5. Taxes.— All kinds of prop-

erty, real and personal, including

homesteads and exempt property,

can always be seized and sold for

the non-payment of taxes, assess-

ments, or any claim of the State

or the United States.

Debt for Purchase Money.—A homestead or

any article of personal property, otlierwise exempt, cac

alwaj's be taken on execution wheG llic debt is for the

purchase money of the land or article.

* 7. Record of Notice of Homestead Claim.—It is

generally necessary to file a notice or deed, or paper of

some kind claiming the land as a homestead, in the

office of the county where the records of deeds are kept.

The word "homestead" entered on the margin of the

record of the deed is sometimes sufficient. If this is not

done, the debtor is supposed to have waived his right

to claim the exemption. Such a notice is not necessary

as to personal propert}-.

8. Consent of Wife to Sale.—After the homestead

is so claimed or designated, it cannot be sold or mort-

gaged by the owner, if married, without the written con-

sent of his wife. She must sign the deed or mortgage

with him. In States w:here the law requires it, her

formal acknowledgment must be taken separate and

apart from her husband, and she must say that she ex-

ecutes the paper without any fear or compulsion on his

part.

9. Personal Property Exempt.—Besides the home-

stead, if the debtor owns one, there is certain personal

property which cannot be taken away from him by his

creditors in payment of his debts. This consists gener-

ally of wearing apparel, household furniture, family

10. "Wages.—The wages of laboring men, earned by

them within a certain period prior to the levy by the

Sheriff, usually sixty days, whether paid to them or still

in the hands of the employer, cannot be taken by the

creditor.

11. Tools of Trade.—The tools, instruments and

implements of trade, by which a person earns his living.

are usually exempt, as to take them away from him.

would deprive him of the means of a livelihood, or from

earning any money with which to pay his debts in the

future.

The librarias of ministers, law5-ers and physicians are

exempt for the same reason.

12. Insurance.—Insurance on homestead and exemptproperty is for the benefit of the debtor alone, and in

case of loss the money must be paid to him, and he caa

hold it exempt from execution.

THE LAW CONCERNING WILLS.

1. Definition.—A will is a disposition or gift of prop-

erty, usually in writing, by the owner, to take efiFect

after his death. The person making the will is called

the testator, or if a women, the testatrix. The persons

to whom personal property is willed are know as lega-

tees, and those to whom real estate is donated are knownas devisees.

2. Form of Will.—Xo exact form of words is nec-

essary to make a will good at law. Use simple language,

and state fully and plainly all the particulars concerning

every provision or condition of the will.

3. Who Can Make a Will.—All persons of sound

mind and memory, and of the requisite age, may make a

will. The age at which a person is competent to dispose

of his property in this way varies greatly in the different

States, but it is usually twenty-one. Citizens of another

country, resident in the United States, may make wills,

but they cannot dispose of land by gift of will in manyStates.

4. Who Cannot Make a Will.—Persons of un-

sound min-d, idiots, insane from disease, even those

afflicted with a derangement of a single faculty of the

mind with bright intervals, are not considered able to

make a will, and the will if drawn up is void. The will

of a deaf and dumb cr a blind person, however, is good

and valid; so is that of a person given to drunkenness,

unless he was not in possession of his faculties when the

will was made. If the testator is able to understand the

nature and amount of his property, the claims of others

on the same, and make up his mind as to the disposition

of it without prompting, he is considered of sufficient

mental ability to dispose of it by will.

5. Must Be in Writing.—Wills must be in writing,

but it is not necessary that the testator should himself

write the bodj' of the will. Wills that are wholly in the

handwriting of the testator, are in a few States valid

without witnesses, if found among the valuable papers

of the testator after his death.

6. Signing.—The testator must sign his name to the

will, in order to make it valid. If he is unable to write,

he may make his mark. If he is unable to read, the will

must be read to him before he signs it.

7. Witnesses.—The testator must sign, the will irt

presence of witnesses, or if made elsewhere, he mustacknowledge to them that it is his signature, and declare

that the instrument is his will. The number of witnesses

required differs in various . States ; some require two,

others three, and one as many as five

THE DUTIES OF EXECUTORS AND ADMINISTRATORS.1. The Executor.—The executor is a person ap-

pointed by the maker of a will to take charge of the

property at his death and to carry out the conditions andinstructions of the will.

2. The Administrator.—The administrator is a per-

son selected by the court to take charge of the estate of

a deceased person who has left no will, and to distribute

the property to the heirs according to law.

3. Duties.—The duties of executors and adminis

trators are substantially the same. There are somepoints of difference

:

An administrator has only possession and control of

the personal property of the decedent. The real estate

goes to the heirs at once.

An executor generally is entitled to the possession rf

all the property of the testator.

Page 123: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

Manual.] LAW WITHOUT LAWYERS—WILLS. 115

4. Bonds.—Administrators are compelled to give

bonds for the faithful performance of their duties. Thebond is in the amount of double the value of the property

left in their hands for their disposal. Executors are often

compelled to give bonds, but provision is usually made

in the will. If any one, however, is interested in the will,

they can compel the executor, if he is not considered re-

liable or responsible, to give sufficient bonds for the

faithful execution of the will.

5. Who Can Be an Executor.—In order to be qual-

ified to become an executor, a person must be of full age

and in the po.ssession of all his faculties. No person

incapable of making a contract can be an executor. Aperson under twenty-one years of age, or a citizen of

another country, not residing in this country, or one whohas been convicted of an infamous crime, such as murder

or theft, or any one who is guilty of habitual drunken-

ness, or dishonesty, or improvidence, or is wanting in

mental capacity, is incompetent to serve as an executor.

If any such person is named as executor in the will, he

will not be allowed to qualify or take possession of the

estate.

6. Who May Be an Administrator.—The same

qualifications are necessary for administrators as in the

case of executors. Certain persons are entitled to admin-

ister on the property of the decedent in preference to all

other persons ; and thej' must be appointed, unless some

valid objection can be urged against them.

7. The First Duty of an Executor.—The first duty

of an executor is to present the will to the proper court

for probate. These courts are usually held at the county

seat. The executor applies for and obtains a writ knownas a citation, a paper in the nature of a subpoena. This

citation demands the presence of the legatees and next

of kin in court on a particular day. Copies are served

on all persons interested in the will.

* 8. The Authenticity of the Will.—The executor

subpcenaes the witnesses to the will, to appear and testify

as to its execution. If they are dead, witnesses who are

familiar with their handwriting must appear and testify

as to its genuineness. If no objections are made to the

authenticity of the will, it is admitted by the Judge or

Surrogate to probate, and is transcribed upon the records

of the court. The original will be returned to the exec-

utor. The executor must then qualify by accepting the

trust and taking the oath to faithfully carry out the trust.

Letters testamentary, as they are called, are then issued

by the court to the executor.

9. Appraisement and Inventory.—On application

of the executor, appraisers are appointed-to estimate the

value of the estate. Notice must be given to all the in-

*In Illinois original wills are required to be filed and remain with the clerk

16

terested parties. An inventory' of all the personal prop-

erty is then drawn up. Property exempt from execution

is included in this inventorj^ though it is not liable for

the testator's debts. All debts due the estate, bonds,

mortgages, notes, accounts, money, etc., must be specially

mentioned and described. The inventory is signed bythe appraisers and returned to the office of the court.

The course to be followed is the same as in the case

of administrators.

10. Payment of Debts.—The executor or adminis-

trator should then give notice, by publication in the

newspapers, for all creditors to present their claims

against the estate of the deceased in writing. In addi-

tion to this, copies of the notice should be sent by mail

to all known creditors. The creditors must obey this

notice within the time limited in the notice, or they can

not complain in case the executor or administrator has

paid over all the assets of the estate to those who have

presented their claims.

11. Order of Payment.—The funeral expenses ot

the deceased are to be paid first. Then all taxes due t(i

the United States, and debts which have a preference b>

the laws of the United States. Then, taxes due to the

State. Then, judgments in the order of their priority.

Then, bonds, sealed instruments, notes, bills, and all or-

dinary debts, in full if the assets are sufficient, otherwise

in proportion.

12. Powers of Executors and Administrators.^If there is not enough money to pay the debts and lega-

cies, the executor may sell sufficient personal property to

raise the money to do so. The real estate must be sold

if necessary. The sale must generally be public—at auc-

tion. The will, however, frequently confers the right of

private sale on the executor. An executor or adminis-

trator has no right to carry on the business of the Lcs-

tator. If he does he is personally liable for the debts

contracted in the business.

13. Should Not Sign Notes.—Negotiable paper

should not be issued by an executor or administrator in

the name of the estate. He is personally liable on such

paper if the assets of the estate are not sufficient to meet

it. To relieve himself of this liability he maj- add to the

note the words " if assets are sufficient." He is then not

liab.'e, but such a note is not negotiable.

14. Compensation.—Executors and administrators

are entitled to compensation for their services. They

are generally given, in most States, a commission, though

the heirs and the administrator or executor may agree

upon a certain stipulated amount. But more commonly

a rule prevails, that the amount of commission be fixed

by law.

A the county or probate court, and some other states have the same statute.

THE LAW^ ON HIRED HELP.

[The Farmers

HOW TO WRITE CONTRACTS AND WAKE AGREEMENTS WITH HIRED MEN.

1. Form of Contract :—

"TBiS^A'^I^CCinCrit, Made this First day of March, 1S94, between Jacob Barnes, of the Town of Hub-

bard, Dodge County, Wisconsin, of the first part, and Samuel Jo7ies, oi the same place, of the second part, witnesseth

as follows: The first party hereby agrees, to employ the second party to work for him, as laborer, iox Eight

motitlis, from and after Jlfay ist, 1894, for the sum of $iS per 7nonth, and to furnish him, the second party, board,

lodging, etc. The second party agreeing to work faithfully for the first party during the time and upon the

terms above mentioned.

Witness our hands, this isi day 0/ March, 1S94.

2. Importance.—A great deal of trou-

ble is often developed, by not having a

definite and plain understanding with the

hired man ; when the agreement is made,

either the time for which he is hired is not

certain, or the specific terms of the agree-

ment are not definitely made, or fully un-

derstood by both parties.

3. Written Contract.—A written con-

tract with a hired man is not absolutely

necessary, but it is always best. To make

a bargain orally in the presence of a dis-

interested party, so that no difficulty may

arise in reference to the agreement, is the

next best way. An oral agreement made

without a witness is always to be ( on-

demned.

4. A Written Account.—Always have

a regular account of a hired man, keeping

record of the time he begins work, and the

date and amount of money drawn, time

lost, etc., and in case of any question as to

the settlement, the account book then can

be taken into court as evidence. Whenopening an account with hired men, al\i ajs

state the terms of the contract; state plain

ly the time for which he is hired, the

amount per month, and the date that he

begins work ; and have the hired man sign

it or get him to acknowledge it in the pres

eiice of some one, not j^our wife.

5. Non-Performance. — If a man is

hired for nine months or for a year for a

specified sum, he will be compelled by law

to serve his full time, unless he can show

Page 125: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

Manual.] LAW WITHOUT LAWYERS.—HIRED HELP. 117

good reason^ for not doing so. If he can prove that he

has been ill-treated, or the party for whom he works has

not properly performed his part of the agreement, then

he may stop work at any time and collect the full amount

of his services for the time which he has worked; other-

wise, if the hired man should leave before he has served

his full time on his own responsibility and without good

cause, he could not collect wages for the time he has

served. But most of the statutes in the different States

provide that the laboring man may collect his wages, no

matter what the agreement as to time of seunce might

be, but the amount of damages that can be proven against

him are taken out of the amount of money his due. If a

hired man leaves the man for whom he is at work at a

•disadvantage, the hired man must pay whatever damage

can be proven by his employer.

6. Hiring by the Month.—If a man is hired by the

month, without any definite time specified, he can quit

work at the end of any month and collect the amount his

due to date. For instance : If A hires out to B for $20 a

month and no specified time is stated as to how long he

shall serve, A can st(3p at the end of any month and col-

lect compensation for the full time he has served.

7. Compensation for Full Time.—If a man has

been hired for nine months in some certain line of em-

ployment and he is discharged without good cause before

his time expires, he can collect wages for the entire timefor which he was hired. No hired man can be discharged

without good cause. It must be shown that he has beenunfaithful and failed to meet the terms of the agreement.

Unless good cause can be shown he is entitled to the full

amount for the entire time he hired out, but he mustoffer his services and be willing to go on and perform his

part of the agreement.

8. Safe Rule.—Law-suits are expensive. It is alwaysbest to make an agreement in such a way so that nocomplication can arise between employer and employed.

If you hire a man and he is not satisfactory, pay him for

what he has done and discharge him, and settle the mat-

ter at once and for all time. If a hired man is discon-

tented and does not care to serve out his time, it is best

to compromise and pay him off and let him go. Theservice of a discontented man is never satisfactory, andhe who insists on keeping a man against his will is losing

mone}- every day. If a man is not willing to perform his

part of the agreement, he is not a safe and successful

man to keep upon the premises. Ship him without delay

and get rid of him at all hazards.

9. Hire Good Men.—Hire good men and pay good

wages. It is always the cheapest in the end.

10. Receipts.—When settling with a hired man or

with any of your neighbors, always take a receipt in full.

Take one hundred of our most noted men, and select one hundred of our most populzir

millionaires, and you will find, almost without an exception, that forty years ago they began

life without a dollar, and worked as hired men to earn their first start in life.

ii8 LAW WITHOUT LAWYERS. [The Farmers*

THE LAW OF HIRING, LENDING AND BORROWING.

1. Bailments.—Bailment is a legal term applied to

almost anjthing that may be borrowed, or loaned, or

hired, or placed in trust for other parties. The person

delivering the goods is called a bailor, and the party to

whom they are delivered or loaned is the bailee. Real

estate cannot be brought under this head.

2. In Trust.—Goods must be delivered in trust in

some form, in order to come under the head of bailments.

3. Delivery.— If a horse be borrowed and used, and

returned with or without compensation for u.se ; or to be

kept and returned at a given time, or when required ; or

to be shod for the owner ; or to be trained or treated for

disease, is in law called a bailment. Delivery of a book

to be read, or bound, or cleaned, or trimmed, or stored

;

or the delivery of a watch to be repaired ; or the loaning

of a wagon, a sleigh, buggy, or any other personal prop-

erty, are all examples of bailments. Hence the delivery

of goods of any kind for any purpose where the party re-

ceiving them is not the owner, is a case of bailments.

4. Required Care.—The care of borrowed or hired

articles that come under the law of bailments are divided

into three degrees, as follows:

First, Slight care, or that degree of care which a heed-

less man exercises over his own things. A failure to ex-

ercise this care is gross neglect.

Second, Ordinary care, or that degree of care which

one of ordinary prudence takes of his own things. Afailure to exercise this care is ordinary neglect.

Third, Extraordinarj^ care, or that degree of care which

a very careful man, one of more than ordinary prudence

and caution, would exercise concerning his own things.

A failure to exercise this degree of care is slight neglect.

5. Care and Neglect.—The lines between these dif-

ferent degrees of care and neglect are by no means easily

drawn. What is ordinary care, for example, will depend

upon the circumstances of each individual case ; and

•whether the bailee or borrower has failed to exercise that

care required of him, is a question of fact for a jurj^ to de-

cide according to the evidence. It is plain that the care

which would be ordinary if exercised concerning a bag

of gold or case of jewelry, would be very extraordinary

if exercised toward an iron kettle ; and the extraordinary

care of a barrel of salt might be verj' gross neglect of a

package of money, if both salt and money were the ob-

jects of the same care.

6. A Deposit.—Any one who is the owner or lawful

pos.sessor of goods may deposit the same, and demandthem again ; but the owner always has a right to demandand receive them by whomsoever they may have been

deposited. If goods are deposited by one legally incom-

petent to bind himself by contract, the deposit is not

good. It must be remembered that in all contracts the

legal competency of the parties is essential. All persons

under age are not qualified to make a contract. But if

they make a deposit of money or property, their parents

or guardians can secure the same for them.

7. The Depositary.—The person receiving goods ondeposit is bound to exercise slight care only if he is not

benefited bj- the deposit, and the benefited party is re-

quired to sustain most of the risk ; he is liable, however,

for gross negligence only.

8. Delivery on Demand.—The deposit must be de-

livered up when demanded, and if the delivery is refused,

the depositary is immediately responsible for its safety,

and may be required to pay for it on charge of appropri-

ating the propert}'. But if he has been subjected to the

payment of expense for the safety of the deposit, he is

entitled to reimbursement before delivering up the same.

For example, a cask of oil or other liquid is the subject-

matter of a deposit, and the hoops had to be renewed to

save it from loss. The person in whose care it was

placed is entitled to receive the amount of his outlay for

repairing the cask.

9. Loan for Use.—Loan for use is a bailment of a

thing to be used by the borrower without paying for the

use of it. In this case of bailment the bailer is called the

lender, the bailee is the borrower, and the bailment is

called the loan.

10. Conditions of the Loan.—First, there must be

a thing which lent being personal propertj'. Second, it

must be lent gratuitously ; for if any compensation is to

be paid it is another kind of bailment. Third, it must be

lent for use and for the use of the borrower.

11. Rights of the Borrower.—The rights of the

borrower are strictlj' confined to the use actually or im-

pliedly agreed to by the lender and cannot lawfully be

exceeded. The use may be for a limited time or for a

time indefinite.

12. To Be Specifically Returned.- -The property

must be lent to be specifically returned to the lender

when the bailment is determined. It is certain that

where a thing is " loaned " for co isumption, such as

flour, it is not a bailment, but a gift or a trade, the equal

amount to be returned.

13. Barter.—Barter is the exchange of one commodity

for another ; and the bread that in common language is

"borrowed" is really exchanged for other bread which ii

Page 127: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

Manual. LAW WITHOUT LAWYERS.—HIRING, LENDING AND BORROWING. 119

to be delivered at a future time. That specific article is

not to be returned.

14. Time and Purpose.—In general the borrower

has the right to use the thing during the time and for

the purpose named by the parties, but he must not go

bej'oud or outside that intention in any degree or he

makes himself liable. If a horse is borrowed or hired to

go to a certain town, no other place may be visited with-

out liability for damages.

15. Cannot Lend to a Third Party.—A gratuitous

loan is a strictly personal trust, unless from other circum-

stances a different intention may fairlj- be presumed.

The borrower cannot lend to a third party. If he bor-

rows a horse to ride he must not permit others to ride it.

The lender may be willing to entrust his horse to the

borrower, but may not feel disposed to entrust it to an-

other party.

16. Liability.—The borrower is under obligations to

take proper care—extraordiuarj- care—of the thing bor-

rowed ; to use it according to the intention of the lender;

to restore it at the proper time, and restore it in proper

condition. Slight neglect will make him liable, as healone is benefited by the bailment. He is generally ex-

empt from liability for loss from inevitable accidents, and

such as human prudence by extraordinary care could not

guard against, such as tornadoes, earthquakes, etc.

17. Recovery Before the Expiration of theTime Loaned.—A question now arises whether the

lender could demand and recover the thing loaned before

the expiration of the time for which it was loaned. Thegeneral rule may be stated to be, that as the bailment is

without compensation, the lender may terminate it

whenever he pleases ; but if he does so unreasonably,

and it occasions any loss or injurj- to the borrower, the

latter maj', perhaps, have a suit for damages where the

object of the bailment has been partly accomplished.

18. Returning Things Borrowed.—The borrower

must return the thing borrowed at the residence or place

of business of the lender where he obtained it, or whereit naturally belonged. If the lender had in the mean-

time removed, the borrower would not be required to

follow him to return it unless the difference in distance

was only trifling.

19. Must be Returned in Good Condition.—Thething loaned must be returned in good condition as it

was when borrowed, the natural wear excepted. If it

were returned very materially damaged the owner mayrefuse to receive it ; but u i.i otherwise if the damage is

inconsiderable. Where the acts causing damage amountsto a wrong done and conversion of the property, the

owner may refuse to receive it, and recover the full value

of it in an action.

20. Expenses.—The borrower will be entitled to re-

cover for extraordinary outlay to preserve or repair the

property. If a coach required a new wheel it would bean unusual expense, and would be charged to the lender

;

while feeding or shoeing a team is an ordinary expense

and must be borne by the borrower. The borrower has

a lien upon the thing until these extraordinar)- expenses

are paid. The lender could not excuse himself frompayment by refusing to receive the property ; nor by the

subsequent destruction of it ; nor by a restitution of it bythe borrovi'er without insisting upon paj'ment.

21. Contract of Hire.—Contract of hire is a bail-

ment in which the bailee is to use the thing bailed, or to

do service about it, for a compensation. The bailor is

called the "letter to hire," and the bailee is called "thehirer." By these names we shall distinguish them here-

after.

22. Essentials of the Contract.—The essentials of

the contract are as follows : There must be the thing in

existence which is the subject-matter of the bailment ; it

should be a thing capable of being let ; the bailee should

have a right to use, enjoy and possess it during the period

for which it was let ; there should be a price for the hire;

and a contract possessing legal obligations between the

parties.

23. Ordinary Care.—As the parties are mutually

benefited, the borrower is to exercise ordinary care, andwould be answerable for ordinary' neglect onlj% as he

pa^'S for the use of the article, ordinary care only is

necessary.

24. Must Not Be Prohibited by Law.—The bail-

ment must be such as is not prohibited b}- law ; as those

against sound moralitj', against public policy, or tkose

positively forbidden. If a locksmith lets tools to thieves

and burglars to enable them io enter houses for the pur-

pose of stealing goods, the bailment would have no legal

force or existence. The principles governing contracts

can be applied here in this case.

25. The Hire of Things.—The letter is obligated to

deliver the thing to the hirer ; to refrain from every ob-

struction to the use of it by the hirer, during the period

of the bailment ; to do no act which shall deprive the

hirer of the thing ; to warrant the title and right of pos-

session to the hirer; to warrant the thing free from any

fault or defect inconsistent with the proper use of it;

and to keep it in repair for the purpose of the bailment.

26. The Obligations of the Hirer.—The hirer is

obligated to use the thing for the purpose of the bail-

ment, and that only ; to take ordinary care of it while

the bailment continues ; to return it when the bailment

expires, in as good a condition as when he received it,

natural wear excepted ; and to pay the stijiulated price,

Page 128: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

LAW WITHOUT LAWYERS.—DISSOLUTION OF CONTRACT. The Farmers'

or a reasonable price if none was agreed upon. The

hirer is not presumed to break, or injure the thing by

using it for purposes contemplated by the parties, with

ordinary care unless it was defective. If by the hirer's

fault the injury is done, he is to repair it; otherwise

not.

27. Dissolution.—The contract of hire is dissolved

by the expiration of the time, or the accomplishment of

the thing for which the contract was made ; by the loss,

or destruction, of the thing by inevitable casualty ; by a

voluntary dissolution by the parties; by operation of

law,—as where the hirer became the proprietor by pur-

chase, gift, or inheritance. When this contract is dis-

solved from any cause, it does not affect the obligation

already incurred, but only those that might otherwise be

incurred in the future.

28. The Hire of Labor and Services.—The par-

ties are called employer and employee. The employer

is, in general, obligated to pay the compensation ; to pay

for all proper new and accessorial materials; to do all on

his part to enable the workmen to execute their engage-

ment, and to accept the thing when it is finished.

29. The Employee.—The employee is obligated to-

exercise the skill in any given case required ; to perform

the labor well and by the time stipulated, or if no time

was agreed upon, then in a reasonable time ; if materials

are put into his hands, to guard them against ordinary

hazards, and to exert himself to preserve them from any

unusual or expected danger ; to deliver the thing about

which the service is done, when the same is completed,

and in all respects fulfill his legal agreements which mayhave been made ou the premises.

The contestants simply hold the cow while the lawyer does the milking.

STOP AND THINK BEFORE YOU SUE YOUR NEIGHBOR.

ARBITRATION.-Or, HOW TO SETTLE DIFFICULTIES WITHOUT GOING TO LAW,

1. Litigation.—It is alwaj-s best for people to avoid

and discourage litigation. Law-suits are an expensive

luxurj-, even though the suit is won.

2. Arbitration.—When persons refer any matter or

controversy to the decision of one or more disinterested

persons, it is called arbitration. This act of referring it

to other persons is called submission, and the person or

persons to whom the matter is left are called arbitrators,

and the decision made by them after due consideration is

called an award.

3. Form of Submission.—Anything may be the

subject of arbitration which is not criminal. Criminal

acts cannot be settled by arbitration. The best way to

settle difiBculties between two parties is for each to ap-

point one disinterested person, and then the two thuB

selected appoint a third party, and the three then consider

the statement of the contending parties and their wit-

nesses, if any, and after hearing both sides of the case

they then can decide upon the terms of an award.

4. Conditions.—A court of equity will not compel

any person to carry out an agreement to Submit the diflB-

culty to arbitrators, but when the difficulty has been once

submitted for settlement by mutual consent of both con.

tending parties, the decision of the arbitrators will be

held as good and binding, unless some fraud or mistake

has entered into the decision.

5. Compulsory Performance.—If either party, after

the <'erms of settlement have been announced by the ar-

Page 130: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

LEGAL RIGHTS AND WRONGS. The Farmers'

bitrators, refuses to perform his part, then by law he can

be made to carry out the conditions of the award or pay

damages for non-performance ; and the suit, if brought

into court, must be on the non-performance, and not on

the original claim. The original claim cannot be tried.

6. Save Money.—Do not go to law because you have

a little difficulty with your neighbor. Make a proposi-

tion to him to leave it out to disinterested parties, and if

he will not settle upon these terms, then you have no

other redress but a court of justice. But verj' few men,

if they are approached properly, will refuse to leave the

points of controversy to disinterested parties, and thereby

much time and much money will be saved, and manyhard feelings avoided.

AFTER THE LAW=SUIT=—The lawyer takes both the cow and the milk, and leaves the two contestantsto fight it out among themselves.

LEGAL RIGHTS AND WRONGS.1. Judge Made Law.—The decisions of our highest

courts of final resort are evidences of the law, for there is

no such thing as "judge made law." The courts cannot

make the law ; they simply expound what they find to

be law.

2. The Boast of the Law.—It is the boast of the

law that every wrong has its redress, and this redress is

worked out through the agency of implied contracts. If

one construction of an implied contract would be frivol-

ous and the other reasonable, the reasonable construction

is the one the law would take. The general rule of law

is, that no implied meaning will be given where an ex-

pressed one has been made.

3. Gift of a Promissory Note.—If a father were to

give his promissorj' note for five hundred dollars to his

son. this note in the hands of the son could not be col-

lected in any court of justice against the father, because

the note, being an executory contract, was not based up-

on a valuable consideration, and therefore was invalid

;

but if the son were to sell it to an innocent third person,

for value, such innocent purchaser for value, could en-

force collection against the father.

4. Place for the Signature.—The party's signature

is usually written at the close of the memorandum, but

not necessarily so. It may be placed anywhere ; at the

end, in the middle, (except in a State where the statute

requires the word subscribed instead of signed, as in NewYork), and, indeed, it may not necessarilj' be his namewritten in full, but his initial or any mark that he mayrecognize as his signature. A written offer, verbally ac-

cepted, is binding upon the signer, but not upon the

party who does not sign.

5. A Guaranty.—Where there is a special promise

to answer for the debt, default or miscarriage of another

person, this too, must be in writing. This promise is

commonly called a guaranty. In this there is no partic-

ular change from the common law, beyond the fact that

the contract must be in writing.

6. Object of the Law.—The law vouchsafes to every

man life, liberty, and the consequent pursuit of happi-

ness. True liberty consists in a man's doing whatever

he pleases to do, so long as he does not please to en-

croach upon the rights of other persons.

7. Intention of the Parties.—Where there is a

doubt as to the principal meaning of the contract, the

court, if possible, will follow the acts of the parties them-

selves in determining the meaning. If words are inten-

tionally made ambiguous, and the court discovers that it

was done for that purpose, the parties so offending will

not be benefited by it. The true principle of ethics is

not to encourage such wrong-doing.

8. Presumption of the Law as to Damages.

When a contract has been fairly entered into, each party

is legally bound to perform his part of the contract ; or.

to answer to the other for damages, according to the na-

ture of the failure of the performance. Since the law

presumes that every man intends to perform his obliga-

tion, it follows that if he does not do so, he must pay

damages; for the language of the law is :

" Perform your

contracts or pay damages."

9. To Be Determined with Fairness.—The dam-

ages naturall}', therefore, will be determined with all

fairness to both parties ; the law fully investigating

the nature of the non-performance, whether it result-

ed from gross carelessness, or indifference, or whether

it was a case of absolute necessity. The law, in no

instance, however, will allow oppressive or vindictive

damages.

10. Contracts for the Performance of Personal

Service.— If an employer should dismiss or discharge

his employee without a just cause or provocation, the

employee so discharged has a right to recover damages

for whatever loss he may sustain by such discharge and

the consequent lack of employment.

11. Flooding Adjacent Lands.—Damages are also

awarded to persons for injury to their real property as

well as to their personal property. For instance, the

backing up of water by raising embankments, levees or

dams, or anything of that nature, and thus flooding adja-

cent lauds and rendering the location unhealthy, besides

producing malaria and other bad effects. In all such in-

stances damages are awarded commensurate with injury-

brought to the property of the said plaintiff.

12. The Effect of Part Payment.—All actions on

book accounts can be brought for indebtedness within

the terms of limitation under the statutes of the State

where the suit is brought.

2. Have the Abstract Examined.—Secure a good competent lawyer to look over

ing the abstract and for examination.

3. Putting on a Mortgage after Abstract Has Been Given.—See that the

party selling the land does not put on a mortgage on the property after the date of the

abstract that he has furnished. Every seller of real estate can secure an abstract, and

the next day record a mortgage against the property.

4. Signing of Deed and Expenses.—Every deed must be signed by the party

selling the land, and if he is married also by his wife. This must be done in presence

124 WHAT A DEED TO A FARM INCLUDES.

WHAT A DEED TO A FARM INCLUDES.

tTHE Farmers

1. Fences, Etc.—Everyone knows that it

conveys all the fences standing on the farm,

but all might not think it also includes the

fencing stuffs, posts, rails, etc., which had once

been used in the fence, but had been taken

down and piled up for future use again in the

same place. But new fencing material just

bought and never attached to the soil would

not pass. So piles of hop poles stored away,

if once used on the land, and intended to be

again so used, have been considered a part of

it; but loose boards or scaffold poles merely

laid across the beams of the barn and never

fastened to it, would not be, and the seller of a

farm might take them away.

2. Standing Trees.— Standing trees, of

course, also pass as part of the land; so do

trees blown down or cut down, and still left

in the woods where they fell, but not if cut

and corded up for sale ; the wood has then be-

come personal property.

3. Manure.—If there be any manure in the barnyard,

or in the compost heap on the field, ready for immediate

use, the buyer ordinarily, and in the absence of anj' con-

trary agreement, takes that also as belonging to the farm,

though it might not be so if the owner had previously

sold it to some other party, and had collected it together,

in a heap by itself, for such an act might be technical

severance from the soil and so convert real into personal

estate, and even a lessee of a farm could not take away

the manure made on the place while he was in occu-

pation.

4. Growing Crops.—Growing crops also pass by the

deed of a farm, unless they are expressly reserved ; and

when it is not intended to convev these, it should be so

stated in the deed itself; a mere oral agreement to that

efiect would not be in most States valid in law. Another

mode is to stipulate that possession is not to be given

until some future day, in which case the crops or manure

ma}' be removed before that time.

.5. Buildings on the Farm.—Buildings on the farm,

though generally mentioned in the deed, it is not abso-

lutely necessary they should be. A deed of land ordi-

narily carries all the buildings on it belonging to the

grantor, whether mentioned or not ; and this rule in-

cludes the lumber or timber of any old building which

has been taken down or blown down, and packed awayfor future use on the farm.

AGRICULTURE AND FERTILIZINGBy Prof. G. W. Carver, M. Ag.

1- Agriculture.—There is probably no subject in

which so many people are alike interested, as that ofAgriculture; and no problems more vexing than thosewhich relate to the how, when and what kind of fer-tilizers to apply, their retention and utilization afterapplication. This applies particularly to the South,as many thousand dollars are expended every yearfor some form of fertilizer, a large percentage ofwhich is carried away by our frequent heavy rains,which are assisted in their work of destruction by theimproper preparation of the seed bed, bad plantingand wrong cultivation.

With the rapid decomposition of organic matter,(vegetable matter), physical and mechanical condi-tions of the soil, heavy rainfall and the great multi-plicity of insect and fungus diseases, with which wemust combat, I am fully convinced that it requiresmore brains to farm successfully in the South than it

does in the North, East or West. I think, however,there is no section in the United States that possessesmore natural advantages, such as an equitable cli-

mate, unusually responsive soils, beautiful naturalshrubbery, and a location so varied that the most fas-tidious home seeker may be suited.

2. Fertility of the South.—For many years after thesettlement of the South it was recognized as one ofthe most fertile spots known to the new world, whichwas doubtless true, but the exhaustive system of cul-tivation, (or rather the lack of system) for the many}-ears which followed has not only left the soil chem-ically poor, but physically as well. The all absorbingquestion now is, how may we bring back or restorethis virgin fertility? The farmer who is so skepticalas to think that this cannot be done, is not fit to hus-band one of God's greatest blessings to man.

3. Vital Principles.—There are a few vital principlesevery farmer must know if he expects to be themost progressive, viz; The condition of the mar-kets in order to dispose of his products to the bestadvantage; he must also know something about thelaws governing plant growth; why one thrives insunshine, another in shadow; why some require agreat deal of moisture and others so little.

The rational feeding of animals must not be over-looked. As he must know just the kind, quantity and

[I

quality of food required to form fat, heat, milk, bone,hair, wool, and muscular tissue.

4. Farming a Profession.—With the myriads of insectenemies and plant diseases, with which he must fight,the study of entymology (the science and descriptionof insects) and botany must not be neglected. Farm-ing is a profession and means progress in almostevery manipulation; the agriculture of today is nomore to be compared with the agriculture of one hun-dred years ago, than the tallow dip candle, of aboutthat age, is to be compared with the present electriclight, and we dare not even conjecture the develop-ments of another century.

Farming, then, is really a scientific study, one inwhich the natural historian delights to revel. An-other element that greatly retards our progress is theold and popular notion that "Any fool can farm."Now, this is wrong; no fool should be asked or ex-pected to go out and perform successfully a task re-quiring so much active brain power.

5. Unfruitful Soil.—The lapse of time and methodsof cultivation has rendered much of our soil physic-ally and chemically unfruitful, not because the ele-

ments of fertility are wholly gone, but in a state orcondition that the plant cannot use them, hence weshall now discuss the ways and means of overcomingthese difficulties.

With. every rain a certain amount of plant food, or-iginally contained in the soil or applied in the formof fertilizers is brought into solution, if such food is

ready to be taken up by the plant. This is frequentlycarried away and lost because the soil is not in theproper condition to absorb and retain these liquidsubstances.

The retention of these substances is accomplishedin several different ways, but I will give only thethree most simple and practical: First, by renderingthe soil porous by deep plowing which should be doneas a rule only in the preparation of the seed bed.Second, by the introduction of organic matter (vege-

table matter) into the soil which acts much as a spongein the presence of moisture, rapidly absorbing it, andof course, all fertilizers held in solution. In this waylarge quantities of plant food is held ready for usethat would otherwise be washed away and lost.

126 CHEMICAL ELEMENTS THAT CONCERN THE FARMER.

These figures show the little nodules highly magnified.

Third, chemical fixation; by this we mean that certain

chemical substances which are very soluble in water,

when mixed with other substances form a compoundthat is not nearly so easy to dissolve in water, but

quite fast enough in the soil for the use of the plant.

6. Von Liebig's Laws.—Heat, light, air and moisture

are essential to the development of all agricultural

plants. A little more than fifty years ago the illus-

trious German chemist, Justus VonLiebig, set forth

four laws that form the basis of modern agricultural

practice. They are as follows:

First, "A soil can be termed fertile only when it

contains all materials requisite to the nutrition of

plants, in the required quantity and in the proper

form." Second, " With every crop a portion of these

ingredients are removed. A part of their portion is

again added from the inexhaustible store of the at-

mosphere; another part, however, is lost forever if

not replaced by man." "Third, "The fertility of the

soil remains unchanged if all the ingredients of a

crop are given back to the land. Such a restitution

is effected by manure." Fourth, "The manure pro-

duced in the course of husbandry is not sufficient to

maintain permanently the fertility of a farm; it lacks

the constituents which are annually exported in the

shape of grain, hay, milk and live stock."

In these four laws of Liebig we have a clear state-

ment of the fundamental principles governing the

use of fertilizers. It is not sufficient to merely read

the laws over once or twice, but they must be studied

carefully if the greatest good is to be derived. Fur-

thermore it is highly important that we know some-thing of the constituents of plants and their relation-

ship to both the air and the soil.

7. Chemical Elements that Ojncern the Farmer.

Of the seventy chemical elements of which all matteris composed more or less, there are only fourteen of

special interest to the farmers, as the others seem in

no way to be essential to plant life. These elements

are divided for convenience into two great groups,

elements or substances derived from the soil andelements derived from the air. Of the first group wehave:—Phosphorous, Potassium, Sodium, Magnesium,Iron, Chlorine, Silicon, Manganese, Sulphur and Cal-

cium. Of the second group we have:—Nitrogen,

Oxygen, Carbon, and Hydrogen.Of all these constituents nitrogen is the most ex-

pensive—costing from 14c to i6Jc per pound, and is

difficult to hold in the soil, owing to the readiness

with which it is dissolved by water. Since nitrogen

is such a necessary element of plant growth, so diffi-

cult to retain in the soil and a matter of so muchfinancial importance, we need to look more deeply

into its sources and methods of retention. Wefind it combined with various substances forming

nitrates, such as nitrate of soda, nitrate of potash, etc.,

also in ammonia which is formed when any animal or

vegetable substance containing nitrogen decomposes.

There are other forms of nitrogen in both plant

and animal substances, but the three just mentionedrepresent the forms it must assume before the plant,

can use it as food.

Page 135: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

APPLICATION OF FERTILIZER. 127

Out of those three different sources two must be

iDOUght, the other may be had by planting a class of

plants which have the power to draw this nitrogen

from the air and store it away in specially arrangedbodies found on the roots of nearly or quite all plants

belonging to the peas, vetches, clovers, beans, alfalfa,

etc. All such plants are called leguminous and bear

little swellings on the roots, called nodules, in whichthis nitrogen is stored ready for use by the plant.

{See Fig. No. i.)

The wise and progressive farmer ceases to buysuch large quantities of these expensive nitrates, but

plants his leguminous crops, permitting them to bring

this to him, and at the same time reap a valuable

crop in the way of fodders, seed or green manure.

I know a piece of land owned by the Tuskegee

Normal and Industrial Institute—a very light sandy

soil, underlaid by red clay sub soil, which was too

poor to grow peas upon—in 1897 crimson clover

was planted. It did fairly well in spots only. In

1898 (March 28th) they cut 1150 pounds from one-

fourth of an acre. In about 3 weeks it will be ready

to cut again, then plowed under and followed by cowpeas. In a very short time, by this method, corn or

cotton might be raised without additional nitrates of

any kind

This clover was fed to the dairy herd which in-

creased in milk nine gallons and in a superior quality

of butter contents ten pounds. This class of plants

will do much toward the redemption of our Southern

soil.

8. Nhrog-cn, Phosphoric Acid and Potash are the

three substances for which we make the greatest an-

nual outlay, and are divided into three great classes.

I. Available or soluble. 2. Nonavailable or insoluble.

3. Citrate soluble. When solubility is referred to

water is always meant, unless otherwise stated.

When we say a fertilizer is available we mean that it

dissolves easily in water, like salt, sugar, etc., and is

therefore ready to be taken up by the plant. Non-available, just the opposite.

By citrate soluble we mean that the fertilizer in

question will not dissolve in water alone, but will

yield readily to citric acid or weak vinegar. 'Consid-

erable thought is used in the preparation of these

fertilizers, hence one must use much wisdom in their

selection and application.

The farmer who is more or less nomadic, movingfrom place to place every year, cannot afford to buyanything but readily available plant food, so as to

get results the first year.

9. Application of Fertilizer.—The character of the

land as well as the nature of the fertilizer should gov-

ern its application. Much of our soils are in the

same condition as that shown in Fig. 2. Here the

soil is simply sandy all the way down to the water

table, hence much decayed vegetable matter should

be worked in and the allotted amount of fertilizers

not put on all at one time, but in two or three appli-

cations, as the case demands, lest much of it leach

through and be lost forever. Vegetable matter in

the soil acts much as a sponge in the presence of

water, absorbing it and of course the fertilizer con-

tained therein, rendering them less liable to be

washed away by frequent heavy rains. Fig. 3 showsa soil underlain with a clay subsoil. This is the mostdesirable, as the clay structure will hold the fertilizer

and capillary attraction (the upward movement of

water) will bring them within reach of the plant

again. Before applying any manure the groundshould be turned over in the fall to the depth of six

or eight inches, just as soon as the crops can be

gathered from it, for the following reasons:— i. Tokill injurious insects, weed seed and fungus diseases.

2. To put the grass and debris under the ground to

decompose and become ready for plant food in the

spring, 3. To let the air and frost into the soil, the

securing of a better seed bed; the building up of the

soil; and the bringing back of some of the fertilizer

that has sunken below the agricultural depth.

10. The Successful Farmer must be a careful student

of the soil. There is only one way for a person to

become master in any profession, and that is by earn-

est study and close application. This is doubly true

of the farmer; he must learn to look and prescribe

for his plants with as much certainty as a skillful

physician prescribes for his patients; he must learn

when the physical and mechanical conditions of the

soil are good and the plants continue pale green in

color nitrogen is needed. 2. If vigorous in growth

of leaf and stem, leaves deep green, etc., nitrogen is

not needed. 3. If such crops as turnips, cabbage,

coUards, potatoes, grasses, cane, corn, etc., show a

Page 136: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

128 SANDY LAND AND HOT CLIMATE—USEFUL TABLES.

fine healthy growth, sufficient potash is present in

the soil. 4. Unusually large stems and leaves, with

few flowers, imperfect fruit low in flavor, and if root

crops, such as potatoes, you only harvest small and

inferior tubers with poor keeping qualities, then too

much nitrogen is present in proportion to the other fer-

tilizing ingredients. 5. The office of phosphoric acid

seems to be that of perfecting the seed, or grain, and

when the seed appears plump and vigorous the above

element is not wanting in the soil. 6. Potash, though

essential to the highest development of all agricul-

tural plants, it occupies first place in the develop-

ment of all those producing sugar.

11. Sandy Land and Hot Climate.—Our extremely

sandy land and hot climate has made the subject of

green manuring or the plowing under of green crops,

such as peas, clovers, etc., of considerable anxious

comment. Some have gone so far as to recommendtheir discontinuance altogether, the souring of the

land being the objectionable claims. This is quite

true, as all plant juices, with but few exceptions, are

acid and hence impart this to the soil when turned

under. This may be readily overcome by a light ap-

plication of lime scattered broadcast at the rate of

twenty to thirty bushels per acre, according to the

nature of the soil; it should be thoroughly air slacked,

spread evenly and burrowed in if the crop is to be

put upon it at once; otherwise it may be spread onfreshly burned and serves to render available potash,

soda, etc., that are unavailable, besides assisting in

the decay of vegetable and animal matter that maybe present in the soil. It is not good economy to

plow under a great crop of green forage when the

land is fairly well supplied with vegetable matter, as

it is worth so much more for food. Millions of dol-

lars in food stuffs might be saved every year, the soil

physically, mechanically and chemically improved,were the destructive forest fires held in check whichdevestate our woodland and fields every year andtheir vegetable matter on tillable lands plowed un-

der in the fall and permitted to convert itself into

plant food for the next year's crop, besides giving to

the land valuable vegetable absorbants to hold whatfertilizers we are obliged to apply. True, burningthis matter returns a little potash to the soil, but this

potash can be bought and applied for about one-

twentieth the cost of other valuable materials we de-

stroy. Should the farmer burn a brush heap and find

that vegetation is ranker and better there than else

where, it indicates that potash is needed. The abovementioned fires are among the greatest curses to vSouth-

ern agriculture and should be speedily remedied.12. Useful Tables and Suggestions.— I submit the fol-

lowing compilation of tables and suggestions with nosmall amount of apprehension, lest the careless, blun-

dering reader will interpret them wrongly. Theyare not infallible rules, but in a very general way ap-

ply to all ordinary soils. Particular ones must bestudied and their wants supplied according to their

several deficiences, and the special demands of the

crop to be grown upon them.

These tables all represent per centage and meanso many pounds of the fertilizer in question, as indi-

cated per figure, in every 100 pounds of the substance;

13. Barnyard Manure.—I feel that too much empha-sis can hardly be placed upon this most important

topic. From Farmer Bui. 21, U. S. Dept of Agricul-

ture, we clip the following statement: "Aside fromthe mechanical benefits to the soil barnyard manure,

according to Prof. Roberts' conservative estimate, is

worth $250 for every small farm carrying 4 horses,

20 cows, 50 sheep and 10 pigs."

We can safely assume that one-third of the manureal

value of our home product is lost by bad management.Accorbing to Prof. Roberts' figures the annual loss

for each farm would be $83.33.

Any one can build a rude shed. The piles ofmanure should be given only water enough torot the heap.

According to Armsby, the farmer who sells one tonof cotton seed meal from his farm sells the followingamount of fertilizing ingredients:

sod land, and a sod of meadow grass or clover, upon

which farm manure has been used during the previ-

ous year as a top dressing. If a good crop of clover

has occupied the land for two or three years no addi-

tional nitrogen will be needed.

About 550 pounds of fertilizer per acre is required

on our southern soils.

Nitrogen 2J per cent.

Potash 10 " "

Available phosphoric acid 8 " "

The average width of planting is 4J feet apart and

thinned from 20 to 24 inches in the row. On our light

sandy soils in the south better results as a rule maybe obtained by giving it more room.

Crimson Clover may be sown in the fall among the

corn, and in addition to that of holding the soil to-

gether and bringing nitrogen to it, a valuable pasture

may be had during the winter.

Watermelons, Cucumbers and Cantaloupes all pre-

fer a well drained sandy loam and a liberal amountof food, about 1200 pounds per acre:

Nitrogen 3 per cent.

Potash 8 " "

Small holes should be dug, these filled with goodleaf mould from the forest. A handful of the abovefertilizer well mixed should be scattered over the

leaf mould, cover with soil, scatter the seed over this

and cover. Thin to two plants to a hill. Cotton seed

meal is especially desirable as a source of nitrogen

for melons.

Cow Peas thrive on any kind of land, but prefer a

sandy soil. Four hundred pounds of fertilizer

should be used:

Potash 10 per centAvailable phosphoric acid 10 " "

Sugar Cane (Ribbon) requires rich sandy bottomsoils with plenty of vegetable matter in them. Cane-brake land is excellent. Ordinarily seven hundredand fifty pounds to the acre is sufficient. All fertil-

izer containing chlorine should be avoided, also fresh

stable manure. The following amounts are recom-mended:

Nitrogen 3 per centAvailable phosphoric acid 8 " "

Potash 10 " "

Heavy wet soils are greatly benefitted by an occa-

sional depressing of lime, from thirty to forty bushelsper acre.

Sweet Potatoes thrive best in a warm sandy soil.

The ground should be plowed deep, from six to eight

inches, harrowed and pulverized well. 550 pounds of

the following fertilizer is recommended for ordinarysoil-s:

Nitrogen 4 per centAvailable phosphoric acid 7 " "

Potash 9 " "

If potatoes have been grown on the same piece of

land for several years, it becomes what is known as

"potato sick" and does not produce well. Theyshould be changed and some other crop planted in-

stead. Sweet potatoes require only a small amountof nitrogen, and if they are to follow a fall plowedsod, little if any nitrogen is needed. Phosphoric acid

and potash are the two principal ingredients for

sweet potatoes.

SPOT DISEASES OF COTTON.REMEDY:—a. Prepare a good deep (eed bed. b. Select healthy seed.

c. Give plenty of potash and phosphates, d. Keep free from weeds.e. Plant on well drained land. This applies to all spot diseases of cotton.

15. The Result of Qjrrect Farmingf.—In 1897 the ex-

perimental station at Tuskegee experimented with

sweet potatoes taking their poorest soil. (So poor

that cow peas would not grow upon it.) A great manydifferent fertilizers were used mixed in different pro-

portions, but the best result was obtained by applying

600 pounds acid phosphate and 120 pounds murate of

potash to the acre. This acre produced 265 bushels

to the acre of very fine uniform potatoes. The acre

that was not fertilized produced forty bushels of in-

ferior potatoes. The land was prepared as stated

above and the potatoes planted practically flat, whichconserved (saved) the moisture, the deep plowing

turned up latent fertility and made a good reservoir

for holding water, besides a sufficient depth of mel-

low earth, favorable to the highest development of

the potatoes.

In conclusion we will say that no formulas or set of

them are infallible, and are valuable only as suggest-

Page 139: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

SELECTION AND TEST OF SEEDS. 29b

ive guides. As above stated, the kind, character, andnature of both soil and crop will largely govern.

Although it is safe to conclude that the smallest

amount of available plant food one may expect to use

advantageously would be forty-five pounds, viz:

Nitrogen nine pounds, phosphoric acid 15J pounds,

potash 2oi pounds.

16. Select Good Seeds.—The selection of seed is of

quite as much importance as any of the various man-ipulations relative to a good crop. Poor seed meansa scanty harvest however careful and diligent one

may work afterwards. The farmer should select his

seed with wisdom and care, rejecting all that appear

shriveled and faulty in any way. Do not select seed

for next year's crop from plants that are rusted badly

or that are diseased in any way. If cotton seed is

wanted select from the stalks that mature the great-

est number of balls, have the longest and finest lint,

and the most free from disease of any kind.

17. How to Test Seed.—A glass dish, tumbler, or

any vessel that will hold water will answer. Dampensome cotton, spread it out thinly over the surface of

the water. Sprinkle the seed upon it to be tested,

keep in a warm place and they will soon germinate.

forms a ring. It continues to increase during five or

six days, until it occupies the whole breadth and nearly

the length of the cell. The nursing bees now seal

over the cell with alight brown cover. As soon as the

larvae is perfectly enclosed, it begins to line the cell byspinning around itself a silky cocoon. When this is

finished it undergoes a great change, from the grub to

the nymph or pupa state, and does not bear a vestige

to its previous form. It has now attained its full

growth, and the large amount of nutriment taken serves.

as a store for developing the perfect insect.

THE CULTURE OF BUCKWHEAT FOR BEES.

Buckwheat is valuable as a honey plant, as it can be

made to bloom when there would otherwise be a dearth

of flowers. We have found in our experimental beds

that the Silver Hull variety has more flowers in the

panicles, and yields more to the acre. The honey is

dark, but is preferred to all other kinds by some peo-

ple. It blooms from four to six weeks after sowingIt is safe in estimating that each acre of buckwheatsown within one and one-half miles of an apiary is

worth Sioo.

THE WORKER BEE.

The worker bee is an imperfect or undevelopedfemale bee, and forms the bulk of the population of a

hive. A hive may be large or small—may be 15,000

or 50,000 workers, more or less, just according to the

[The Farmers'

season. The workers gather all the honey, poUen andbee-glue, carrying the latter in little baskets on their

thighs, the former in little sacks, sometimes called the

first stomach. They secrete the wa.x from honey, feed

the young, clean the hive, and, we might say, do all

the work except lay the eggs. They are short-lived,

on an average in the working season being only twomonths. But in winter, when they are idle, they some-times live si.x months, or even longer.

THE DRONES.

The drones are the male bees of the hive, and their

only use is to fertilize the queens. This always takes

place when on the wing. The queen never leaves the

hive except for the purpose of meeting the drones or

lead of a swarm. The less the number of drones in a

hive the better, as they are idlers and useless consumers

of honey. The bees kill them off when swarming is

over, or honey harvest fails. The drones have no

stings.

BREEDING.

After the queen deposits the egg it takes an average

of about twenty-two days before the worker comes forth

a perfect insect. About twenty-five days are required

from the laying of the egg to the hatching forth of the

drone. The time for the development of the queen is

only sixteen days from the laying of the egg.

SWARMING OF BEES.

It is generally supposed that a hive will not swarmuntil 3iost of, if not all, the cells are so filled that

the queen has no place to lay her eggs, and as this is

not apt to happen unless bees are gathering honeyfreely, it is useless to look for swarms, particularly in

the spring until warm, dry weather, as either cold or

wet weather is unfavorable for the secretion of honey.

Swarms seldom or never issue until at least one queen

cell is capped over.

Those using the removable comb hive can by ex-

amining the frames every few days tell almost to a cer-

tainty when to expect a swarm, though occasionally

bees will change their minds and permit the queen to

destroy the royal cells.

No rattling of pans or any other noise is needed to

make a swarm settle; in fact, I never was able to

satisfy myself that throwing dirt or water among the

bees ever had any tendency to make them settle,

though others think it will.

The sooner bees are hived after clustering the

better the chances are of their remaining with you.

Manual.] HOME LESSONS IN BEE KEEPING.

Hives need no rubbing with leaves or salt to induce

bees to go into them; be sure they are clean and free

from cobwebs.

There is another thing very necessary, the lack of

which has caused the loss of many a swarm of bees,

and that is a cool hive.

After hiving a swarm put the hive on a ventilating

bottom board; it should not be raised as bees are moreinclined to remain in the hive if the ventilation is

from below, and the entrance the only place they can

get out. The hive should be well shaded, and in very

warm weather sprinkling or syringing with water fre-

quently will help keep the hive cool, and of course

have a tendency to make the bees satisfied with their

new home.

Occasionally a swarm will leave a hive when it

seems as if all had been done to keep them that could

be. If a swarm appears determined to "secede," put

a box of honey on it, shut it up on its ventilating

bottom board, and take it into the cellar, keeping it

there four or five days; it might be well to give water

by putting a dish full under the bottom board andpressing it up to the wire screen, then the bees can

help themselves.

We never knew a swarm desert a hive after remain-

ing in it four days (unless an accident happenedsuch as

melting down the comb); by that time there is a brood

which bees will seldom leave.

It may be necessary to explain \vhat a bottom board

is; it is simply a bottom board with a six or eight inch

square cut out of the center and a wire cloth tacked

over it.

HOW TO DESTROY THE BEE MILLER.

To a quart of water, sweetened with honey or sugar,

add a gill of vinegar, and set it in an open vessel on the

top or by the side of the hive. When the miller comesin the night he will fly into the mixture and be drowned.

CdMMON HIVES.

HOME LESSON IN BEE CULTURE.1.—Fundamental Points in Bee Keeping:. There

are four fundamental points which render bee-keeping

a success, viz., the man, the movable comb hive, the

season and the honey machine. The operator should

be acquainted with and understand the nature andworking of the bee to enable him to manage themproperly. He should then have a hive that will answerall his needs in every department of bee culture, andin the making of hives should aim at simplicity. Thehoney machine is acknowledged by all bee-keepers to

be the greatest improvement to the science since the

invention of the movable comb hive, by the use of

which we claim to double and even treble the quantity

obtained by the old method.

2. What Constitutes a Swarm of Bees.—Everyprosperous swarm of bees must contain one queen, sev-

eral thousand workers, and a portion of the year a fewhundred or even thousand drones. We will now pro-

ceed to describe the different bees which constitute aswarm, and the labors of each.

3. Description of the Queen.—The accompanyingcut will illustrate the appearance of the most impor-

tant member of this industrious colony. The queen is

the onlyperfect fe-

male bee in

the colony,

and hence

the name of

queen or

mother bee.

In form, she

is longerthan either

of the other

species. Sheis usually of a dark color, except the under side

of the abdomen, which bears somewhat on the

golden shade. All her colors are bright and glossy,

and she has but little of the down or hair seen on the

drones or workers. Her wings are short, reaching a

little more than half way back. Her posterior is morepointed, and has the appearance of curving under morethan that of the workers. She has a sting, but never

uses it except in combat with a rival queen.

4. Their Affection for their Queen.—The queen

is always treated with the greatest affection by the

bees. If she is removed from them, the whole colony

is thrown into a state of the most intense agitation. All

labor is abandoned, and the bees run wildly over the

comb, and rush from the hive in anxious search for

their beloved mother. If they cannot find her, they

return to their desolate home, and manifest, by their

sorrowful tones, their sense of this great calamity-, as

THE QUEEN BEE.

Page 142: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

132

no colony can long exist without the presence of the

mother bee.

5. The Age of the Queen.—The average age of

the queen is about three years. No one should be

allowed to become older than that, as after that age

they often become barren, or deposit eggs which pro-

duce only drones, and the colony soon wastes away

without being replenished with worker broods.

HOME LESSONS IN BEE KEEPING. [Thk Farmers'

you have complete control over, even to examine

every comb and seeing every bee or queen in the hive

THE WAILINGS OF THE QUEEN.

The queen has two notes; one of defiance, called

piping; the other is a note of fear, a plaintive, pitiful

wail, mournful In the

extreme, and linger-

ing long in the mem-ory when once heard.

This mournful note is

set up when removed

from the hive, whenseized by other bees

to destroy her life,

or when her colony

are starving. When-ever this note is heard,

turn not a deaf ear,

but immediately respond to the call, for there is some-

thing wrong. Rigidly examine the hive and remove

the cause of complaint.

An unimpregnated queen is called a "virgin queen."

They are capable of laying only drone eggs. A fertile

queen is one which has mated with a drone, and is capa-

ble of laying eggs which may become either workers,

drones, or queens. A barren queen is one who has

passed the stage of laying eggs that will becomeeither workers or queens, but continues to lay eggs

which produce only drones. The period of fertility

lasts from two to three years, and cannot be depended

on longer safely. All such queens should be destroyed

and fertile ones introduced, that the colony may not

become extinct.

WILL BEE KEEPING PAY ?

Of course it will. There is nothing that either menor women can engage in that will pay anywhere as

well as bee culture; and there is nothing so well

adapted for the farmers' sons and daughters as bee

keeping. But to make the bee keeping business a

success, you must go into it understandingly, and if

you have not already the bees on hand, you will haveto purchase a few colonies, and be sure to get Italians.

If they are not in a movable comb they will have to betransferred. You will then have them in a hive that

THE MOVABLE COMB HIVE.

ENEMIES OF THE BEES.

Domestic fowls are destroyers of the bees, and also

some birds from whose attacks, as they range in the

fields at a distance from the hive, they cannot be pro-

tected. Among these is the titmouse, or blue tomtit,

which devours the bees, and feeds his young with them;

and in winter is said to endeavor to force his way into

the hive itself. Mice are often very troublesome, and

even rats sometimes make their way into the hive.

Slugs and snails often occasion much trouble; and

especially in warm summer evenings the attacks of

wasps and hornets are a great annoyance to bees. In

all these cases care and vigilance can do much. Wasps'

nests ought to be destroyed wherever met with; insects

of all kinds, such as earwigs, woodlice, ants, etc.,

should be cleared away. In a word, the hives and

stands for them ought to be kept as clean and neat as

possible.

THE BEE MOTH.The bee moth is one of the most destructive enemies

of the bee. There are two broods of the moth each

year; the first brood appears in May and June, and the

second, which is the most numerous, appears in August.

During these months this moth remains nearly hid, but

at night it approaches the hive and the female seeks

every opportunity to deposit her eggs in the hive.

When the egg is deposited it soon hatches out, and the

work of destruction begins and continues until it spins

a cocoon and soon appears as a full-winged moth.

Page 143: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

Manual.] HOME LESSONS IN BEE KEEPING. '33

HOW TO DESTROY THE BEE WORM.

There is no use to try and keep bees without giving

them proper attention. The domestic animals of the

farm and home need daily feeding and attention and he

who would be successful with bees must be as attentive

as though they required daily feeding and watering.

Every day in the cool of the morning the hive should be

lifted to one side and moths and other worms detected

should be taken out and cut in two with a sharp knife

or other instrument. If this is done during the months

of May, June and August, the swarms will continue

thrifty and if it is a good season for honey, they will lay

in a large supply.

ARTIFICIAL SWARMING.

This should be undertaken only when honey is abun-

dant in the fields and the nights warm. To divide themhave a hive at hand of the same size and pattern as

your others. Then from four hives take each two

frames and place them in the new hive, supplying those

in the old with the empty frames. Then move a hive

which you have not disturbed a rod or more away to a

new place, and place the new hive where that one stood.

This should be done in the fields. These will come in

loaded to their old place and find it strange, and, as it

contains stores and young bees hatching and eggs from

which to rear another queen, they will at once proceed

to rear one, and remain and work as contented as ever.

This process may be repeated every two weeks until

you have secured sufficient increase. The hives from

which you take the combs, and the ones which you

move to a new place, will lose so many bees that they

will not think of swarming, but will energetically makeup their loss, and be better than if nothing had been

taken from them. This is the safest of all ways to

divide bees, and can be safely practiced by beginners.

FEEDING BEES.Should the weather be favorable, every stock should

be examined about the first of February. Should any

one be in want of food it should be supplied. If in a

box or gum hive, thin pieces of white sugar candy can

be slightly pushed between the combs through an open-

ing on the top. Honey or good sugar syrup should be

given by means of a saturated sponge or comb, filled

with honey placed at the opening on top, being careful

to cover with a box to keep out outside bees. In mov^able frame-hives, frames of honey from other hives,

having it to spare is most convenient, and any required

quantity can be given to the various feeders througlx

the honey board.

REARING OF QUEEN BEES.

Premising that you use movable frames, make &number of small frames, as near four or five inches,

square as may be, to just fit inside one of your largC:

ones. Fill with clean worker comb—that which haS;

been frozen is the best, because the eggs of the mothwill have been destroyed—and put the large frame

containing these small ones in the middle of somestock with a fertile queen from which you wish to

breed. Provide also some small boxes on the plan of

a simple movable frame-hive, with loose top and rab-

beting for the frames and just the size to accommodatethree or four of them. When eggs have been depos-

ited in the comb?, set up one of your small boxes with,

them as a hive in miniature and confine it between a

pint and quart of bees. They will immediately con-

struct queen bees, and may then be opened. In this,

way any number of queens may be provided.

3 The Farmers' Friends. — Thefanner rarely ever gets any direct benefit

from the game which flourish on his prem-

ises The majority of our grain pro-

ducers scarcely ever realize

what protection is furnished

by the birds during the spring

and early summer. At that

season of the year the fowls

of the field and the birds of

the air feed almost entirely

upon worms and other in-

sects, and one insect destroyed

the first of the season maybe equal to millions destroj-ed

in the fall.

EVfY QUAIL AND EVERY PRA'R'E CHICKEN IS WORTH $1.00 A PIECE

1. Increase of Insects.—It is a fact well established

that insects are annually increasing and their ravages

upon vegetation are more wide-spread and disastrous

every year. New precautions, new remedies, and newexperiments are continually necessarj' in order to protect

our trees, fruit and vegetation. The outlook for fruit is

becoming more and more alarming.

2. Extermination of Birds. — All the old settlers

realize the vast difference between the number of birds

twenty j'ears ago and now. Millions of our song birds

are slaughtered annually to satisfj- the whims and follies

of fashion. While quails, prairie chickens, partridges,

grouse, pheasants and various other birds, that are the

friends of the farmers, are almost exterminated in order

to .satisfy the passion for sport. Were it not for birds no

fruit or grain could be raised.

4. A Dollar a Head.—It

is no doubt a well established

fact that every quail, every

partridge, everj- prairie chick-

en, everj' grouse, every pheas-

ant, and the like, are worth

a dollar a piece to every

farmer. The insects which

they destroy in the early sea-

son is worth three or four

times more to the producer

thin the highest market price ever paid

for these birds as game.

5 Save the Birds. — If farmersTO EVERY FARMER,

.^^.q^i^-^ ^jjjjte and would protect the birdt

upon their farms, and keep off the hunters, it would be

worth thousands of dollars to the country. It is difiicult

to estimate the value. Let farmers unite and keep out

hunters, sports and dogs from their fields, and thereby

protect their crops.

6. Wholesale Cruelty and Slaughter of Small

Birdo. — Some one has said, if women could only know

of the destruction of bird life that their love of finery

occasions, they would make it unfashionable to wear the

feathers of murdered birds. In 1886, 5,000,000 birds

were required to fill the demand for ornamenting ladies'

hats. Forty thousand terns were killed in a single

season on Cape Cod ; i ,000,000 reed birds (bobolinks)

in a single month near Philadelphia. The swamps

and marshes of Florida are well known to have become

depopulated of egrets and herons, and the Siate at large

has become a favorite slaughter ground for milliners'

emissaries. Seventy thousand birds were killed in a

small village on Long Island in a short space of four

months. A lady in Florida heard the mournful notes of

some birds in small cages. They were blind. Theireyes had been put out. The cages were hung in trees

smeared with tar. The birds sing and attract other

birds, who get stuck in the tar. They are caught andtheir eyes put out.

7. Follies of Women. — The little tufts of feathers

which have been so much worn are taken from the beau-

tiful egrets or small herons, who have them only duringthe breeding season. The bird is shot while trj'ing to

protect its young ones, and is easily caught on that

account, and the young birds are left to starve. Manyol the most useful and beautiful species of the birds are

b«'coming extinct.

8. A Plea for Birds, Grain, Fruit and Humaiilty,— An extract from a letter from Michigan gives someidea of the complaint made by farmers :

" The destruction of birds has been carried on to sucban extent that it is hardly possible to raise any kindof fruit, even the grapes as well as the apples getting

too wormy to use."

9. $100,000,000. — It is estimated that they save

$100,000,000 annually to the farmer. Michelet, the

great French authority, says :" There could be no

vegetation, and therefore no life, if the birds were aH

destroyed."

10. Let Every Man Frown uponWomen wearing

feathers of birds, and they will soon give up the fashion.

In fact, we ought to look upon a lady with a feather or

bird upon her hat as lacking in sensibility and refine-

ment.

The Goat Moth is a well-known insect, with a short body andlarge and broad wings of a pale browning white color, marked withshort wavy lines. The caterpillar of this insect is flesh or winecolored, and has a few hairs upon it ; and a faint and disagreeablesmell is evolved from it, which is left behind upon the wood overwhich it has recently crawled. This larva gnaws the old trunks ofwillows and elms, and by excavating large galleries in the trees, it

often destroys some of the largest and finest.

year. The queen of the Honey Bee is supposed to lay

over that number of eggs annually, and the Plant Louse

is supposed to lay a trillion.

IMAGO, OR THE PERFECT INSECT.

6. Metamorphosis.—Almost every insect undergoes

a certain change, which is called metamorphosis. In the

first state the insect is a caterpillar, or a worm. In the

second state it is wrapped up in a covering which is called

a cocoon, or lies buried in the earth, and for some time

remains in a sort of a sleep. When this is completed, it

becomes a perfect winged insect and generally ready for

flight.

LARVA, OR MASKED STATE.

PUPA, OR BABY STATE.

7. Three Stages.—An insect goes through three dis-

tinct stages. The first is called the Lari'a, which is the

Latin word for mask ; the insect is not in its true state or

character, consequently it is called the Larva, or maskedstate. The second state is the sleeping state, when it is

wrapped in a cocoon, or is going through its transforma-

tion in some other form, it is called the Pupa, the Latin

word for baby, because it commonly appears somethinglike a bab}^ helplessly sleeping in its bed, until the devel-

oped or waking time arrives. The next state is called

the Imago, or perfect state, because it is now in the imageof perfection, or complete development. Thus Larvarepresents the worm or caterpillar, Pupa the cocoon or

sleeping period, and Imago the winged or perfect state.

8. Reproduction.—The Larva is produced from an

egg, and the egg is laid by a perfect insect. When the

Lan^a is first hatched it is very small, but it grows very

rapidly and eats ravenously. The common fly is first a

maggot, and then develops into a common fly.

9. Pupa State.—An insect undergoes many changes

in developing from a worm into a butterfly. Insects in

the Pupa state eat no food.

10. In the Image State the insect eats but little, as

it has reached its growth and requires but little nourish-

ment.

140 SCIENTIFIC NAMES OK INSECTS SIMPLIFIED. The Farmers'

SCIENTIFIC NAMES OF INSECTS SIMPLIFIED.Fruit growers, or at least a great many of them, have

taken up the study of insect life more from necessity than

choice, and it has always seemed to us that one reason for

this aversion to Entomology has beeu the many scientific

names which are necessarily used, and also from the fact

that entomology has only of recent years become an art

of every-day practical appliance—as well as a science.

Science in itself means a systematic classification, and

the science of insects is in this respect no more difficult

than the science of flowers or any form of life. As with

flowers so with insects. Commencing as far back as the

division of Arthopoda (from the Greek, meaning jointed

legs), we find that this division includes INSECTS,ARACHNIDA (from a Greek word, meaning spider,)

PYCNOGONIDA (from the Greek, meaning thick or

crou'dcd knees or legs) and CRUSTACEA (from the

Latin, meaning rind or shell). We are only interested

now, however, in the first named of the preceding, viz

:

INSECTS. These, we find, are divided into Myriapoda

worms, Millipeds, etc. The most of our pets are found

among the Tkuk Inskcts or Hexapods, and are charac-

terized by having the body distinctly divided into three

parts, viz : the Head, the Thorax or Chest, in which the

Heart and Lungs are situated, and the Abdomen or

Stomach. These true insects also have, as a rule, three

pairs of legs and two pairs of wings. Going still further

in the classification, we find that the Hexapodus are di-

vided into eight different orders.

BOT FLY. BEE FLY. HORSE FLY.

First come the Hymenoptera or Order I. These

(named from Greek words, meaning vienibrane-wiiigcd,

have a mouth organ developed for biting, and also as a

sucking tube. Their wings are small, transparent, and

with few nerves or veins. Familiar examples of this

Order are Bees, Ants and Sawflies. The next three

Orders have mouths develeped simply as sucking tubes,

the difference in the Orders depending upon their wings.

Order 11. are the Lepidoptera (from the Greek, meaning

<ica!v 'd'ings or feathers) and their distinguishing feature

(from the Greek, meaning numberless legs) and the Hexa-PODA (from the Greek, meaning six-legged). The Mvria-

PODS are the less common of the two classes, and include

as their names imply, such animals as Centipedes, Galley-

is that the wings are covered with minute scales, such as

butterflies and moths.

Order III. are the Diptera (from the Greek, meaning

two wings) or with only one pair, and these are transpar-

ent and with few veins ; the Housefly and Mosquito are

examples of this Order.

Order V. are the Heniiptera (from the Greek, meaning

half-winged). Those belonging to this Order have trans-

parent wings more or less veined, or the upper ones are

developed half way as a leathery shield ; examples of

this Order are bugs, lice, locusts, etc. The preceding

three as noted have their mouths developed as sucking

tubes : the next four, on the contrary, have their mouths

developed for biting, and in order to preserve this classi-

fication we have placed Order IV. out of its regular

position

Order IV. is Colcoptcra (from the Greek, meaning

sheathcd-u'inged). In these the upper wing is a horny

convex shield, the under wings being membraneous and

folding upon a hinge, such as beetles.

Order VI. is Orthop-

tera (from the Greek,

meaning straight wing-

ed). In these the up-

per wings are straight,

being leathery or mem-braneous, and the under

wings fold like a fan,

such as Crickets and

Grasshoppers.

Order VII. is the Ncuroptcra (from the Greek,

meaning nerved or veined winged). These have^iiickly veined transparent wings, and Dragonflies

are an example.

Order VIII. and the last, is the Thysanura " • a

less rigid bristles. These are very small animals,

as the Bristletails and Springtails.

list of Genera (plural of Genus)

with an unlimited number of

Species under each Genus. In

giving the scientific name of

the Genus, and the second the

Species. There are, as a rule,

many species in each genus, a

number of generea in each fam-

each class, and so on up to THE SCORPION.

The Archnida is anorder of insects whichhave the body di\ided

into two well markedregions—the head andhind body. They havesimple eyes and four

pairs of legs, theyhave no antennae norwings, and they do notchange their formsafter they are hatchedfrom the egg. Fromthe egg to maturity

they change their skin

142 INSECTICIDES. [The FARMERb

FEEDING THE SUFFERERS OF THE GRASSHOPPER RAID.

THE PRINCIPAL INSECTICIDES, AND HOW TO USE THEM.

1. Care.—The most important substances for spray-

ing are poisons, and great care should be exercised in

the use of any prepared combinations of Arsenic, Paris

Green, and lyondon Purple.

2. The Most Common Kinds.—The most commoninsecticides are Paris Green, London Purple, Slug-shot,

White Arsenic, Hellebore, Pyrethrum, Kerosene Emul-sion, Carbolic Acid, Tobacco, Bisulphide of Carbon^

Benzine and Gasoline, and Coal Tar.

3. Paris Green Spray.—For Fruit and Shade Treesuse one pound of poison to 250 gallons of water, andkeep well stirred ; smaller quantities in proportion. Thechief objection to Paris Green is, that it is so heavy that

it settles quickly to the bottom of the vessel—ver>' muchmore quickly than London Purple. It is also more ex-

pensive.

4. London Purple.—London Purple is a little moreinjurious to the foliage than Paris Green, but keeps in

solution better, as it does not settle to the bottom so

quickly. It should never be applied to foliage easily

injured, like peach and plum trees. For general spray.

ing use three ounces in sixty gallons of water. Smaller(juanties in proportion.

5. White Arsenic.—White Arsenic should be hatt

died with great care, as it is liable to burn the foliage.

(5. Hellebore.—Use a tablespoonful to a pail of water

and sprinkle the foliage with it. It will generally kill

the worms found on currants, gooseberries, and the like.

7. Kerosene Emulsion.—Kerosene Emulsion is pre-

pared by adding two parts of kerosene to one part of a

solution made by dissolving half a pound of hard soap in

one gallon of boiling water, and churning the mixture

through a force pump with a rather small nozzle until

the whole forms a creamy mass, which will thicken into

a jelly-like substance on cooling. The soap solution

should be hot when the kerosene is added, but of course

must not be near the fire. The emulsion thus made is

to be diluted, before using, with nine parts of cold water.

This substance destroys a large number of insects, such

as the Chinch Bug, Cabbage Worm, and White Grub-,

and is a comparatively cheap and effective insecticide.

8. Benzine and Gasoline.—These may be set undet

the bushes or foliage where insects are destructive, and

the gas rising will either destroy or drive away the insects,

9. Coal Tar.—This is used along the side of ditches,

to keep chinch bugs from migrating into other fields.

Manual.] NEWLY DISCOVERED INSECTICIDE. 143

A NEWLY DISCOVERED INSECTICIDE.

Thought to be More Desirable than Paris Green.

A. new and important discovery in the domain of pom-

ology has been made by F. C. Moulton, of the gypsy

moth commission, Maiden, Mass. Arsenate of lead was

the substance used, which was prepared by dissolving

eleven ounces of acetate of lead and four ounces of ar-

senate of soda in 150 gallons of water. These substances

quickly dissolve and form arsenate of lead, a fine white

powder, which is lighter than Paris green, and while be-

ing fully as effective in its operation in destroying insect

life, is far preferable for several reasons : If by any meansthe mixture happens to be used stronger than necessary

to destroy insect life, even three or four times the iieces-

sarj^ strength, it in no wise injures the foliage of the

plants upon which it is sprayed. This is greatly in its

favor, for often in using Paris green for Potato beetle

lar\'ae and for the codlin worms, as much injury results

from the poison burning the foliage as would result from

the insect if let alone.

This is a better insecticide than Paris green under all

circumstances and for all insects, says Prof Fernald. It

has the advantage of being readily seen on the leaves, so

that one can tell at a glance which have and which have

not been sprayed, which is often of great convenience.

Being lighter than Paris green, it does not settle .so quick-

ly, and as a result can be distributed more evenly over

the foliage. A great objection to the use of Paris green

is the liability of using an over-dose, and thereby injur-

ing the foliage of the plants sprayed. With the arsenate

of lead, it can be used, if necessary, in the proportion of

25 lbs. to 150 gallons of water, without injury to the

foliage. Prof. Fernald advises the addition of two quarts

of glucose, or if that cannot be obtained, two quarts of

molasses to each 150 gallons of water, used for the pur-

pose of causing the insecticide to adhere to the leaves.

Ivxperiments have shown that the insecticide will remain

on the trees for a long time, even after heavy rains, and

we infer, prove effective. The cost of these chemicals

IS given as 8/ per lb. for arsenate of soda and 14/

per lb. for acetate of lead, at wholesale. It should be

borne in mind that these substances are all poisonous,

and should be handled with proper care.

HOW TO SPRAY FRUIT TREES AND SHRUBS5

HOW TO RAISE PERFECT AND WELL DEVELOPED FRUIT EVERY YEAR.

1. Farmers aud gardiiers must come to it. Every year's experience shows

/'^f'' conclusively that our fruit is not only becoming more imperfect, but is decreasing

in quality and quantit}^

2. Farmers must meet the new conditions, be prepared for new duties, or they

will soon lose their beautiful fields and fruit gardens.

3. Spraj'ing is no longer an experiment, but a science, and but few men who

keep a fruit orchard, potato field, grape vinej'ard or cotton field, hop field or

tobacco field, must resort to spraying at the proper time.

4. To show the benefit of spraying select a portion of your trees or shr'.bl;er>',

and carry out the instructions and receipts given, and you will demonstrate to

your own satisfaction in a single season the wonderful benefit of spraying and

protecting your fruits.

Manual.] INSECTS AND HOW TO DESTROY THEM. 145

THE FIELD CRICKET.The crickets are nocturnal in.sects, whose colors are dark

and of brown and gray tints. They have all long and

slender organs of sensation, and legs adapted for jumping.

The males have a large musical apparatus, and the

females possess an elongated ovipositor.

These insects live very solitary existences, except whenthey are disposed for that society which they suppose

they can obtain by their everlasting chirp. Each of them

digs a hole, and does not leave it except during the night,

and children in the fields, who know this, can often catch

a field cricket by poking straws down cracks in the ground.

HOW TO DESTROY CLOTHES MOTHS.One of the greatest enemies of the housewife is the

clothes moth. It is very small and makes its waythrough the smallest crevices. The female moth finds

its way in early Summer among the clothes and furs,

suitable for food for its young, and there deposits about

fifty or more eggs. In about a week the eggs hatch and

the young worms begin to eat upon the cloth uponwhich the eggs were laid. It spins a sort of case which

it lengthens and enlarges. Not content with eating and

making a hou.se for itself upon the cloth upon which

it lives, its cuts its way in various directions through

the cloth and drags its case after it. As the weather

gets warmer the little worm closes its case at the

ends and in three weeks the perfect moth will makeits appearance.

Remedy. Beat the garments well early in the

Spring and occasionally during the Summer. It is

better to keep the articles in a large paper bag.

Occasional airing is good.

For clothes packed in boxes or trunks, put a little

oil of cedar on a piece of paper and roll up and

wrap with other paper to avoid soiling the garments,

and put several of these rolls into each box or

trunk. Carbolic acid, turpentine or benzine is

equallj' good, used in the same manner.

Black pepper, a piece of camphor gum, or a hand-

ful of snufif wrapped up with the clothes is excel-

lent.

Caution. Camphor should never be used in

keeping seal skin, as it takes the color out of the fur.

A close closet lined with tar paper is the best for

furs. It is also excellent for clothes.

Whole cloves are now used to exterminate moths,

and some say they are much better than tobacco,

camphor, or cedar shavings.

HOW TO DESTROY COCKROACHES (Blattid^).

History. The cockroach does not, like most insects,

pass through several distinct changes. It sheds its skin

several times and develops into a full-grown insect. The

female carries her eggs with her in a little sack. Whenthe eggs are ready to hatch the case is dropped. The

young are white after being hatched and change for a

dark brown color. They shed off five or six times before

maturity.

Cockroaches are verj- troublesome, eating everj'thing

that comes in their way. They have a strong and disa-

greeable odor.

Another species of the cockroach known as the "Water

bug" is very common in New England. Its habits and

manner of development are about the same as the regular

cockroach.

Page 156: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

146 INSECTS AND HOW TO DESTROY THEM. {The Farmers

Remedy. Thirty-seven parts of borax, nine parts of

starch and four parts of cocoa sprinkled around the haunts

will usually exterminate them in a few days.

Other receipts, such as a tablespoonful of red lead and

Indian meal mixed with enough molasses to make a thick

batter used for a few evenings, will also produce fatal

results.

Insect powder does not kill them, but stupefies them so

they can be swept up and destroyed.

Pouring hot water on them where it can be done, is a

sure remedy.

A VEGETABLE CATERPILLAR.Attention has been called to the Aweto of New Zealand

as one of these puzzling products of nature. In the early

stage of its growth it is a perfect caterpillar, growing to

the length of three and a half inches. It is alwaj-s found

in the neighborhood of the Ratatree, a large scarlet-flow-

ered myrtle, and habitually buries itself a few inches

under ground.

When the Aweto is fully grown, it undergoes a won-derful change. The spore of a vegetable fungus fixes

itself directly on the caterpillar's neck, takes root, andgrows like a diminutive bulrush, frcm six to ten inches

high, without leaves, and with a dark-brown head.

The smgular stem penetrates the earth over the cater-

pillar and stands up a few inches above the ground. Theroot grows at the same time into the body of the insect,

exactly filling every part without altering its form in the

slightest degree. It simply substitutes a vegetable for ananimal substance.

As soon as this process is completed, both the caterpil-

lar and fungus die, and become dr>' and hard, and the

thing is then a wooden caterpillar.

ALL KINDS OF RECEIPTS FOR SPRAYING

PLANTS, TREES AND SHRUBBERY.

Insects Which Sting the Fruit and Devour the

Foliage.

Use Paris Green or London Purple in proportion of one

pound to 250 gallons of water, and apply just after the

bloom has dropped, then once or twice thereafter, ten days

apart.

For Insects like Plant Lice.

Make a kerosene emulsion of one-fourth pound of soap,

one pint of kerosene, two quarts of hot water. One quart

of this mixed with twelve quarts of water and spray as

soon as the first broods appear.

GRAPES.

The grape vine flea beetle, and the grape phylloxera

can be destroyed by spraying with the kerosene emul-

sion. The former can also be destroyed with London

Purple or Paris Green.

For Mildew or Black Rot use a solution of potassitlim

sulphide—one ounce to five gallons of water. Spray after

leaves begin to start ; again just before blooming ; thence

once in two weeks until fruit is of good size-

Page 157: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

Manual.] INSECTS AND HOW TO DESTROY THEM. H7

For Fungus Attacks, Such as Mildews, Rots,

Scabs, Etc.

Receipt : Dissolve six pounds of sulphate of copper in

sixteen gallons of water, four pounds of lime in six gallons

of water. Apply to grapes early in the season, other fruit

after bloom.

Second Receipt : Three ounces carbonate of copper in

one quart of ammonia, and diluted iu twenty-five gallons

of water. The two above receipts are effecti\-e for grape

rot, apple and pear scab, and leaves no coloring upon the

fruit. Apply before any foliage appears and then after

the foliage is out, and fruit formed, three to six times

according to the season.

The Vermorel Nozzles are best, thej^ throw a fine spray

and use less material, and for high trees only a little

longer hose is necessary.

Spray Pump.

CABBAGE.To destroy the cabbage maggot, spray the roots with

two ounces white hellebore in three gallons of water.

Kerosene emulsion is also recommended ; in either case

the earth should be pushed away by hand and the liquid

forced about the roots. To destroy the cabbage worm,

spray with hot water at 130 degrees Fahrenheit, or with

kerosene emulsion. The green cabbbage worm can be

destroyed by spraying with pyrethum, two tablespoons to

two gallons of water.

PLUMS.Destro)' the aphis with kerosene emulsion and a fine

epray nozzle. The curculio can be destroyed by spraying

with three ounces Paris green to forty gallons of water.

First application should be made as soon as blossoms

have fallen, and repeat at intervals of a week or ten days.

Four applications should be sufficient. Other jemies

of the plum will be destroyed by this method, but in all

cases be particular to keep the poison and water con-

stantly stirred.

20

STRAWBERRIES.Leaf blight can be prevented by the use of the Bordeaux

mixture, applied with a spray pump once in two weeks

;

first application must be made early in the season.

Destro}' the crown borer bj- spraying with Paris green,

three ounces to fort}- gallons of water, as soon as the newleaves open, again just before the first blossoms unfold,

and again after August ist.

PEARS.The pear slug can easily be destroyed by spraying with

Paris green, four ounces to fifty gallons of water, or kero-

sene emulsion as soon as it begins operations. The pear-

leaf mite can be destroj-ed b\' spraying with kerosene emul-

sion. The codling moth and curculio should be treated

the same as recommended for apple trees.

Hop Plant Louse.

This insect appears in June or earlj- in July, and is

very destructive. Spray as soon as the pests appear with

kerosene emulsion. This is guaranteed to kill the lice in

thirty minutes after application.

For roses use hellebore. A tablespoonful in a pail of

water.

Small fruits and bushes can be sprinkled with a bucket

sprinkler.

THE SEVENTEEN-YEAR LOCUST.The LiOCUSts deposit their eggs in the earth, and close

them up in a kind of tunnel, and the young ones are bomwithout wings, which become developed as they growolder.

TOMATOES.The green tomato worm can be destroyed by spraying

with London purple, one-fourth pound to sixty gallons

of water. This should not be used after the tomatoes

have begun to ripen.

PEACHES.Peaches if attacked by the black peach aphis, spray

with kerosene emulsion. The plum curculio frequentlj'

attacks the peach, in which case spray with Paris

green, two ounces to £fty gallons of water ; be

sure to keep it well stirred, and use with caution.

Never use London purple on peach trees.

CHINCH BUG ON CORN.

Can be destroyed with the kerosene emulsion.

Every farmer should learn to make this emulsion,

as it is a most u.seful insecticide. It is especially

valuable for killing lice on cattle and hogs. Paris

green will not kill chinch bugs. Apply the emul-

sion with a spray pump.

CURRANTS AND GOOSEBERRIES.

To destroy the worms spray with powdered

white hellebore, one ounce in three gallons of

water, as soon as the worms appear. To destroy

the yellow aphis, spray with kerosene emulsion

early in the season. To prevent mildew use one-

half ounce potassium sulphide to one gallon of' water.

The spray pump can be used for washing buggies with

good advantage. After washing the buggs-, wipe dry

with a chamois skin or soft rag and then apply a littlt

kerosene oil and lampblack with a small sponge.

the emulsion, and apply to the cotton with a

"Vermorel" nozzle ; this extract kills by contact,

nnd though destructive to insect life, is not in

lie least injurious to those handling it.

MEAT OR FLESH FLY.

The Flesh Fly and the Blue Bottle are ver>- useful, or

as they are called. Gentles, for they devour dead bodies

of all kinds. The curious legless maggots are well known,

and so are the egg-shaped, dark-brown pupse. The mag-

gots, which at first are called "fly blows," increase in size

with very great rapidity if they have sufficient food;and

there is some truth in the saying that a pair of maggots

will eat up a carcass as soon as a lion, for the reproduc-

tive powers of the female are enormous.

COTTON.

The Arkansas Industrial University at Fayetteville

says, the following is one of the most efficient, inexpen-

sive and harmless remedies for the destruction of the

cotton wo.in : Two and one half pounds pyrethrum, and

one and one-half gallons of kerosene oil, and one pound

soap. Dissolve the latter in one gallon of boiling water,

and to this hot mixture add one gallon of the above ex-

tract (pyrethrum and kerosene) , and mix thoroughly with

a torce pump ; dilute with water 450 parts to one part of

culio, spray with Paris green or London purple,

one-fourth pound in forty or fifty gallons of

water, soon after the blossoms fall, and again two

weeks later. To destroy the aphis or plant lice,

spray with kerosene emulsion as soon as the

pests appear. To destroy the web worm spray with

London purple or kerosene emulsion about August ist or

loth, or as soon as they appear. This appHcation should

be made during the middle of the day, when the worms

are out of their webs and feeding on the leaves.

LOCUST OR GRASSHOPPER.

The locusts or grasshoppers deposit their eggs in the earth,

and close them up in a kind of tunnel, and the young ones

are born without wings, which become developed as they grow

older.

THE APPLE MAGGOT.1. Apples are usually' injured by a codling moth, who

workii about the core, bvit the apple maggot feeds all through

the apple, as shown in the following illustration. It ruins,

when it once enters, the entire apple, as no part of it can be

saved.

2. The Apple Maggot is a two-winged fly, seen early in

Summer, and deposits its eggs under the skin of the young

apples early in the season. In the course of a few days they

then make their appearance on the surface, drop t»

the ground, and penetrate the soil to the depth of

about an inch, where they will remain until the

following Summer, when they come out as full-

fledged flies.

3. Remedies.—As yet there are no remedies

that will produce the desired result. The only

system of extermination is to collect all the wind-

falls and destroy all the apple pomace, so there

will be no sources for their development. Only

a few States are suffering from this insect, and

great caution should be exercised against its spread-

ing by vigilantly using the aix)ve precautions.

bage worm are mentioned, but it is stated that remedies

should be resorted to without expecting these natural

enemies alone to keep the insects in check. The methods

of treatment deserve repetition, and it may be rememberedthat these, given for the imported Cabbage Worm, are al-

so the most efficient for the Southern Cabbage Worm,the Cabbage Plusia and the Cabbage Plutella: "As the

eggs are deposited on the outer surface of the leaves, and

the worms feed for some time before reaching the head)

these insects may be nearly all destroyed by the prompt

application of any one of several good remedies. Among

the cheapest, most easily applied, and to my mind the

best of the remedies to destroy cabbage worms, are the

arsenites—London Purple or Paris Green. I have given

abundant proof of the harmlessness of such applications

to those who eat the cabbages, in Bulletin 12 of the Iowa

TSxperiment Station.

Some of the Remedies.

"Thoroughly mix one ounce of the poison in six

pounds of flour, and dust it very lightly over the plants

from a cheese-cloth sack, in the evening or early morning,

when a little dew is still upon the leaves. Make the first

application soon after the plants are set out. Certainly

no one can think that there would be the slightest dangc

in giving such treatment up to the time that the heads

begin to form. After the heads liave formed, the poison

«an be applied mostlj' to the outer leaves ; but if any is

put upon the head itself, it is almost impossible that it

should do harm, as the surface leaves of the head are not

eaten, and these leaves in a growing cabbage are contin-

ttally spreading and becoming outer leaves. Neither

ean the poison be washed by rain into the cabbage, for

the outer leaves do not run into the head. I should not

think it advisable to apply the poisons nearer than 7 to

10 days to the time of harvesting the cabbages, and it

would never be necessary to do so.

Patent insecticides, such as Slug Shot and Oxide of

Silicates, have been much used by gardeners for the de-

struction of cabbage worms. The poison in these insect-

icides is Paris Green, but no one ever heard of a person

being poisoned from eating cabbages thus treated. These

patent insecticides are much more dangerous to use than

one a person prepares himself, for he is usually ignorant

as to the composition of patent compounds, and is more

Bable to be careless with them. For those who prefer

not to use the arsenites, there is probably no better rem-

edy than Insect Powder, or Buhach. This substance

kills by coming in external contact with the worms, and

is best applied by means of a blower that sends the parti-

cles of dust down between the leaves of the plants.

This powder is not poisonous to man, and hence is very

safe to use or to have in the house. The chief objection

to this substance is its expense. The powder is verj-

light, and a pound will treat a large number of plants.

A remedy much recommended by Dr. Riley is hot water.

Water may be poured boiling hot into a watering-pot and

applied at once to the caterpillar, and, if the plants are

not too thoroughly drenched, the latter will not be

harmed, while all the worms touched by the water will

be destroyed. Worms that are protected upon the under

side of the leaves cannot, of course, be treated. Kero-

sene emulsion, if applied in extra strength and with con-

siderable force, will also kill many of the worms, but I

have not found this substance of much value in destroy-

ing the larvae of Pieris raptE."

APPLE TREE BORERS.Signs.—The indication of apple tree borers are that

they make their appearance, especially in young trees, by

a sort of a sawdust being pushed out of the openings in

the bark. The discoloration of the bark of the apple tree

also shows where the grubs are at work.

APPLE TREE BORERS.

Remedies.—Apply on the first of June a solution of

soft soap and crude carbolic acid, and two weeks later

make another application.

The Mixture.—One and one-half quart of soft soap

or one and one-half pound of hard soap mixed with two

gallons of boiling water and one pint of crude carbolic

acid. Mix thoroughly.

It is a good plan, late in the Fall, to go over the young

orchard and examine the trees, and see if there are any

indications of borers or eggs ; they can be easily destroyed

with the knife.

The Bark Louse represents a sort of whitish or yel-

lowish scales, and in the fall they increase in size, and

covering. They are apparently fast to the tree, and are

parasites feeding on the sap, and not a part of the bark,

as many suppose.

Remedy.—Scrape off the tree with a dull knife or hoe

as much as possible. Young trees should be scraped

very carefully, then scrub with a broom and apply the

soap emulsion, used for apple tree borers, double strength.

In June spray the trees with kerosene emulsion.

it, and apply a shovelful of the powder to each hill ; after

each rain renew the application. The results are excellent.

Tobacco acts both as a mulch and a fertilizer, and is aa

excellent thing for cucumbers and melons, aside from its

beneficial effects in keeping off the cucumber beetle.

Another Method.

Place over each hill a thin piece of cheese-cloth abouttwo feet square, and fasten the edges down by loose earth.

A little twig may be bent in the form of a curve and stuck

into the ground to keep the cloth from the plants, thou;;h

this is not nccessarj'.

Thel^Large Squash Bug.—They have a strong odor

like a Ixd bug. It is a terrible enemy to the squash andpumpkin Mues. The only remedy is to tear off the part

of the k if w here the young cluster, and crush them underfoot and to catch the old ones and destroy them. Appii-

cation of hot water 150 degrees (Fahr.) will destroy iheiii.

THE POPLAR BUG.

Poplar trees are frequently much damaged by this

i«sect. The grown bug is of a green bronze color

;

the lar\'a is red and is spotted with brilliant black.

The larva destroys the foliage and does great injury.

Remedy : Spray with kerosene emulsion.

A Ne^v Way to Protect Cucumbers, Melons,and Squash Vines.

The worst enemy of these vines is the little striped

yellow bug. It first appears as a little tiny worm, and in

almost two weeks casts off its skin and acquires its per-

fect form.

Remedy.—The best way to raise vines which these

insects feed upon, is to get eight inch tile, cut them in

two in the middle, or have it done at the tile factory-, and

set into the earth several inches, plant the seeds inside

the tile, and keep it covered with a window glass until

the vines are beyond the reach of the bugs. The glass

draws the heat and makes the growth thrifty and rapid.

THE CUCULLIA MOTH.The CucuUia has some very pretty moths and caterpillars.

The moths lia-\-e long, pointed wings, long bodies, c!id a sort

of hood to their thorax, and are called Sharks. They feed

upon flowers and plants, and can be easily destroj-ed bypicking them off by hand, as they can be easily picked up

;

or, if they are very numerous, they can be destroyed by

spraying with kerosene oil.

HOW TO DESTROY PLANT-LICS.There is scarcely a tree, bush or herb that grows in our

gardens or fields, that is not infested with some species of

plant-lice. Their manner of living, and of reproduction,

has attracted much interest. They both deposit their eggs

and bring forth their young alive, a peculiarity which does

not take place in any of our four-winged insects. Their

multiplication is immense, and 'vere it not for their numer-

Remedy. When the plant lice get too numer-ous take a little flov/er of sulphur, and mix it with

a little sawdust, and scatter it over the plants.

How to Kill the Orchard Caterpillar.

The Appletrec Caterpillar during the month of

May forms large cobweb-like nests in the forks of

the limbs of the apple and cherry trees.

Remedy. Take a long pole and tie a large rag

in the shape of a ball on the end of it ; then saturate

the rag with kerosene oil and light it and hold it,

for a second only, under the nest. It destroys the

nest and worms at once. It takes but a short time

to go over the orchard, and it saves the fruit as well

as the life of the trees. The same remedy vrill ap-

ply to other trees, such as walnut, etc.

How to Destroy Currant and Gocsc-berry Worms.

Take a tablespoonful of hellebore and stir it into

a pail of water, and apply to the bushes with a

sprinkler. One or two applications will generally

be sufficient. A little care in watching the bushes

is necessary-. The worms generally begin at tlie

bottom, and are not noticed until the bush is nearly

destroyed.

HOW TO DESTROY GARDEN INSECTS.

The Cut Worm.—A great enemy of garden

plants is the lar^•a of the dark colored miller or

moth that enters our dwellings in the evening

when the lamps are first lighted. This wormwill cut off the plant close to the ground. It is

usually done at night, and the next morning the

grub can be found just beneath the surface andeasil}' destroyed.

,

Remedj' : Place a lighted lamp or torch in the

garden in the early part of the evening, and a

pan of water well whitened with milk near by,

and many of the moths will fall victims.

THE VINE MOTH.The Vine Moth is very common in some sections of the

country, and is very injurious to vines. The moths fly in the

month of July, and soon lay their eggs on top of the vine leaves,

where they are readily seen. During the month of August the

little caterpillars are hatched, but they do not begin to eat.

Soon each one hangs itself on a silken thread, waiting to be

moved to and fro bj- the breeze until it touches the wooden prop

of the vine, or the stem of the plant, and then enters the cracks of

the wood or beneath the bark until late in the Sj^ring, and remain

in a perfectly sleepy and quiet state. When the hot weather

commences again, they climb up the tender shoots and devour

everything that comes in their reach. Whole vineyards are often

destroyed.

Remedy : Spra>- with a strong kerosene enuilsion when they

first make their appearance.

How to Exterminate the Strawberry Worm.Mow the strawberry plants close to the ground A^-hile the

worm is among the leaves. Let them drj- a short time and pile

them up with a little straw and burn them. It is also recom-mended to burn them right over the roots of the plants. Thiscan be done without much injurj' to the strawberry- plants.

THE SCREW WORM.Its Ravages on Horses, Cattle, Sheep, Hogs, Etc

DESCRIPTION AND CURE.

The mature insect is a fly (Fig. 2.) a little

larger than a common housefly, and lays its eggs

in wounds, sores, and in the natural openings of

man and animals. Young calves are almost in-

variably affected in the naval, and frequently in

the mouth, causing the teeth to fall out. Youngcolts are often affected in the same way. Barb

wire injuries to horses and cattle are the most

common sores in which the screw worm is found.

Hogs are very liable to become affected by castra-

tion and other wounds.

History. After the egg is laid it becomes a

small maggot, which soon burrows itself in the

flesh of the wound. The maggot grows steadily

in size, and eats more and more every day of the

soft flesh around the wound or sore. The worm

Manual.] INSECTS AND HOW TO DESTROY THEM.

is full grown in about a week. They then leave the sore

and fall to the ground, and in about 12 days become flies.

Symptoms.—A swollen, gaping condition of the wound,and the constant discharge of blood. While the sore is

unhealed new eggs are constantly being laid, and if theworms are not destroyed, they eat deeper and deeper, andoften kill the animal.

Remedy. Cresylic ointment, calomel, chloroform or alittle carbolic acid in water. In some cases bandages areuseful. In others the sores can be filled with okum anda few stitches taken. All treatment should be supple-mented by daubing the margins of the wound with pine-tar to ward off the fly.

THE ENEMIES OF THE FARM AND GARDEN.

There is a vast variety of insects that injure or destroythe flowers, vegetables, and shrubbery of our fields andgardens.

Many of these insects are preyed upon by native birds,

and it is strange that .so few of our gardeners are familiar

with this fact. Many of them, while they are in the gar-

den or field battling with the destructive insect, their

sons, with air gun or sHng, are destroying their best

friends. Birds are the friend of the farmer and gardener,and should be protected against the ruthless onslaught ofcruel and thoughtless boys.

Many farmers kill the robin and other birds On ac-count of the few berries or cherries they eat, but they ig-

norantly destroy their friends instead of their enemies.The principal food of birds is insects, and the trulywise farmer .should protect his birds, quails and prairie

rfiickens just as much as he does kis domestic fowls

MOSQUITO JUST TAKING WING.(GREATLY MAGNIFIED.)

The Mosquito family is remarkable in many respects.

The eggs are deposited on the surface of stagnant water,

about three hundred of the eggs are fastened together in

the form of a sort of a raft, which floats upon the surface

of the water until the mosquito is hatched out. Themosquito, when first hatched, is called a Wriggler, andlives in the water exclusively. It is not, however, like a

fish, it has no gills, and therefore has to come to the sur-

face to breathe.

When the Wriggler develops, it comes to the top withits back upward, which breaks open and a full-winged

mosquito appears, the same as seen in the cut above. It

rests upon its cast off skin for a short time, and then an-

folds its wings and flies.

Remedies for Mosquito Bites.—If mosquito bites

are irritable, apply a little soda or saleratus water, or a

little lime slacked in water will likewise have the desired

effect.

How to Destroy Tobacco Worms.The tobacco worm, or horn caterpillar, is the chief

pest of the tobacco field. The moths appear in June and

July, and the female at once lays eggs on the upper sur-

face of the leaves ; these hatch in about tweiity-four

hours, and the worms at once -begin to eat. Can be de-

stroyed by spraying with Paris green or London purple,

one-fourth pound to fifty gallons of water.

A Remedy for the Harvest Mite, commonly knownas Chiggers or Jiggers.

1. These little mites cause about the same irritation of

the skiu as the itch mite, and are only found in the south-

ern half of the United States and Mexico.

2. They get on the lower limbs and work their way up-

ward on the body. They cut and dig their way into the

skin, causing great irritation and annoj'ance, sometimes

swelling and inflammation.

3. Remedy. Mix equal parts of powdered sulphur and

firesh lard, and apply as often as necessary. Also kero-

sene oil will destroy the insects and allay inflammation.

How to Destroy Cabbage Worms.

The cabbage worm has been very troublesome of late

years, but is easily got rid of. Our plan is to go over the

patch in the morning and sift a little fresh Persian insect

powder over the heads while the dew is on. This will

kill every worm it touches in less than five minutes, andit is but a short job to treat over five hundred heads if a

common pepper-box, such as ground pepper comes in, is

used to hold the powder. One shake on a calm mornino-

beibre the breeze starts up is sufiBcient for a head, and it

can be done almost at a walk. This operation should berepeated at least on* a week as long as the millers are

seen flying around. The insect powder is entirely harm-less, and is only poisonous to insect life.

Hot Water.—Hot water is also an excellent remedy.Apply at about 150 degrees Fahr. No injury to the cab-

bage will result.

THE STAG BEETLE.The Stag Beetle is a very popular bug. It has been known

to gnaw its way through lead pipe. It is a very strong beetle

the lar\'£e of which penetrates wood, and is generall)' found in

rotten portions, and is sometimes very destructive to youngertrees.

HOW TO EXTERMINATE SPIDERS.Take a small common kerosene lamp and light it, and late in

the afternoon or early in the evening look over the corners and

places where spiders are commonly found, and when one is

seen hold the lamp chimney directly beneath it, and it will fall

at once into the chimney and be instantly destroyed. It is not

HOW TO PRESERVE BOOKS FROMBOOK MOTHS.

The little Bristle Tail or Silver Fish has a little

long, slender body covered with a delicate silver

scale; it has no wings and passes through nochanges. It feeds on the paste of the binding of

books, devours leaves, eats off the labels in Muse-ums, and is generally destructive to both books andpapers.

Books are also eaten by the larva of a little bugthat produces a ticking .sound like a watch — it is

called the "Death Watch," as it is usually heard in

the night ticking like a watch.

Remedy. A little rag saturated with benzine ot

carbolic acid placed along the back of shelves will

clear the library of all insects. Insect PowdeJ'

sprinkled over the books will destroy the little "Si^

remedy.

2. Remedy. Applj^ ammonia or common soda

and water. If there is much inflammation and

redness, applj' a solution of borax and warm water.

GNATS.The natural history of the gnats is full of interest, and even

the common gnat is well worthy of study ; and we almost

wonder at finding such a bloodthirsty and annoying being in

so delicate and fragile a body. The gnat has a very elabo-

rately constructed offensive weapon in its mouth, the structures

of which, although excessively delicate, can do their perforat-

ing duty perfectly. All the pieces of the mouth are free,

and the jaws are in shape of sharp blades, toothed on their

margins. Gnats abound in marshy districts, and where there

is stagnant water, for their larva are in the water, but cannot

live in running streams. The}^ are very fond of such places as

water tubs in gardens, and it does not much matter if the

water is not quite fresh.

HOW TO DESTROY ANTS ON THE LAWN.Boiling water, kerosene, or a solution of fresh insect powder

In water, poured into the bill, will destro}- the inhabitants at

V KJ\ OI SrONGESA NEW WAY OF TRAPPING ANTS.1. Ants are verj' difficult pests to expel from the

house. There have been many receipts and experi'

ments tried, but without any satisfactory results.

2. The ants that infest our houses live only in

rotton wood, either in the decayed sills of the house

or in rotten timbers and old fences near by. It is

best to remove all such hiding places if possible.

3. Remedy. Ants are very fond of sugar, and

anything containing it will attract them. Sweeten

a pan of water to a thin syrup, and then dip a large

sponge into it, and wring it out. Place the sponge

where the ants can get at it ; it will soon be filled

through and through with ants, then take it upcarefully and plunge it into boiling water, and again

set it by, saturating it with the thin synip. A few

days' trial will, for a long time, exterminate the

anno3dng pests.

This is the only successful experiment ever tried.

4. A trap more simple but not so effectual is a

plate covered with a thin layer of lard and placed

where the ants can easily get at it. This trap is

more to destroy the little j-ellow ant than the larger

species.

HOW TO DESTROY ALL KINDS OF HOUSEINSECTS

1. Insects do not grow by imperceptible increase

in size as a bird or cat. All insects pass through,

several changes from the egg to the perfect state.

The horrid caterpillar that crawls in our path to-day

will soon be seen flitting among the flowers in the

form of a beautiful butterfly.

2. To destroy house pests successfully, the his-

tory- of the insect, from the egg to the perfect state.

must be well known. The successful housekeeper mayalways be a close observer aud a careful student in order

to keep hex house free from noxious insects.

HOW TO AVOID FLEAS.1. There are no human fleas in North America. The

dog and the cat flea are the only species that anno}' us.

2. The eggs of the flea are very small, white and

oblong, and are laid on the dog or cat, and, being sticky,

adhere to the hair until they are ready to hatch, whenthey fall to the ground. They hatch in about a week

and in less than two weeks attain their growth. Theythen pass through a pupal stage, and in two weeks more

the perfect flea appears. They flourish best in sandy soil.

3. Remedy. Put olive oil on the dog or cat or both,

as the case may be, and rub it into the hair thoroughly,

and after a few hours wash out with warm water and

soap.

4. Dalmation Insect Powder rubbed into the hair and

sprinkled around the dog's kennel or the cat's sleeping

place is also a good remed}-.

HOW TO EXTERMINATE THE CARPET BUG.

The Carpet Bug (Anthienus Scropluilance), or Buffalo

Bag, as it is sometimes called, was first noticed in the citj'

of Buffalo, New York.

The grub which does the damage is about one-fourth

of an inch iu length. It is covered with hair, as shown

in the above illustration b. It spius no cocoon like the

caterpillar, but when full grown the skin splits on the

back and shows the insect. A few weeks later the skin

bursts again, and the perfect little bug, as shown in <•,,

appears. It is marked with red, black and white spots,

and is less than one-eighth of an inch in length.

Remedy. When once in a carpet it is a very difficult

insect to destroy. In some houses carpets cannot be

used, as they are eaten as fast as they can be put down.

Tallowed paper placed around the edges of the carpet is

a verj' good preventive.

When a carpet is cut as if with scissors following the

seams in the floor, the simplest and safest remedy is to

pour benzine in very small quantities along the seams

;

also running a hot flat-iron over along the seams of the

carpet is very destructive to both the insect and the

eggs. Sprinkling the paper with benzine before the car-

pet is tacked down is an excellent precaution.

HOW TO GET RID AND KEEP RID OFBEDBUGS.

1

.

The eggs of the bedbug are white in color and oval

in shape. The young resemble the parents, and it takes

about eleven weeks to get its full growth. Like reptiles,

they can live many j-ears without food. Mr. Gceze, of

Germany, has kept them six j-ears in a bottle without a

particle of nourishment of any kind.

2. Keep the bedding and bedstead perfectly clean is the

best preventive.

3. Remedy. Pour hot water into the crevices and

then apply benzine to the different parts of the bedstead.

4. Unpurified petroleum mixed with a little water is

also a sure remedy. Corrosive sublimate is a very

but a very poisonous cure.

THE FIRST TROTTING IN AMERICA,

Until 1823 we have but little authentic information

that regular trotting courses were established, and not

until 1S30 were fast trotting courses established. Thefirst public trotting in America for a stake was a match

against time for $1,000.

In 1S24 A. M. Giles trotted his horse twenty-eight

miles in one hour and fifty-seven seconds. The same

j^ear Topgallant and Betsy Baker were matched to trot

three miles in a harness for $1,000 a side. The race was

won by Topgallant by forty j-ards in S : 42. Topgallant

also trotted twelve miles on the road in thirty-nine

minutes. The "Albany Pony" did a mile in 2 ; 40. TheTreadwell mare did one mile in 2 : 34, and Boston Blue

trotted eighteen miles within an hour. Boston Blue is

reported to have been the first horse that trotted a mile

in three minutes, it having been done in 18 18, so that

it will be seen that the Treadwell mare in 1S24 had

reduced that time to ? : 34. Yet for many }-ears after

a 2 : 40 horse was considered extraordinar}-, as also

was any horse capable of going on the road in three

minutes.

In 1827, on the Hunting Park Association of Philadel-

phia, Screwdriver won two heats at two miles, beating

Betsy Baker in 8:02 and 8:10, the two best times on

record. Dutchman afterwards accomplished the same dis-

tance in 7 : 32J2, and Lady Suffolk in 7 : 403^2.

In 1840, on the Long Island course, Jerry beat Whale-

bone in a three-mile trotting race, in 8 : 23 the first heat,

and 8:15 the second. The best time for two-mile heats

that year was 5 : 22, 5 : 21 — for three miles, 8 : 26, 8 : 27,

8: 41, 8 : 56. At a longdistance Sweetbrier accomplished

six miles in 18 : 52.

In 1834, Edwin Forrest, as yet an unentered horse,

trotted his mile in 2:3i><, beating Sally Miller. Thecourse was one mile ten yards in length.

In 1835 Dutchman made four miles under the saddle

in II : 19 and 10:51, and Dolly five miles to a wagon,carrying two men, weighing 310 pounds, in^i6:45, andimmediately was started again to do ten miles more,

Fli--_h she accomplished in 34:07. The same year the

horse Daniel D. Thomkins, under the saddle, trotted

three-mile heats in 7 : 59 and 8 : 10.

In 1842 Ripton beat Lady Suffolk at two miles in

harness, in 5 : 07 and 5:17.

In 1843 Lady Suffolk made mile heats in 2 : 28}^,

2 : 28, 2 : 28, 2 : 29 and 2 : 32, which was not again equaled

until 1854, when this record was covered by Tacony.

In 1844 Cayuga Chief made the first half-mile in a race

in 1:15, the fastest yet made in public, and Fannj' Jenks

accomplished 100 miles, in harness, in nine hours, thirty-

eight minutes and thirtj'-four seconds. The slowest mile

was done in 6 : 25 ; the fastest in 4 : 47. At the end of

the race the mare was driven an extra mile in 4 : 23.

In 1849 Lady Sufiblk trotted nineteen times and wontwelve, beating Gray Eagel and Mac twice, Pelham five

times, Lady Sutton twice, Trustee four times ; also beat

Black Hawk, Graj^ Trouble, Plumbay and other horses.

This j-ear a Canadian mare, Fh-, is said to have been

driven from Cornwall to Montreal, ninety miles, in eight

hours and fifteen minutes. Fannj^ Jenks made 100 miles

in nine hours, thirty-eight minutes, and thirtj'-four sec-

onds. Fanny Murray trotted 100 miles in nine hours,

forty-one minutes and twent3--tliree seconds.

In 1S52 Tacony won twelve races, beating all the fast

horses of the daj', making a single mile in 2 : 26, two

miles in 5 : 02, and was beaten only twice. As a three-

year-old, Ethan Allen trotted this year in 3 : 20. Flora

Temple this j-ear won her first purse, on the regular

turf, in 2 : 41.

In 1853 the entire sporting interest was centered in

Flora Temple and Tacony. Flora this year beat all the

best horses of the daj-, winning seventeen times. Herbest time at mile heats was 2:27, 2 : 28, and at two-mile

heats 5 : 01^, 4 : 59. This year Tacony trotted a mile in

2:25><.

In 1856 the contest lay principally between Flora

Temple and Lancet. Flora made eleven races, winning

nine, heating Lancet four times in harness, Tacony going

under the saddle. This 3'ear Flora Temple lowered the

one mile record to 2 : 24^^.

KAyUAL.J HOW TO TRAIN COLTS. r6:

HOW TO BREAK AND TRAIN COLTS.

A COLT'S FiRST LESSON IN TROTTING.

1. It can be trul}^ said that as soon as a colt is weaned

his training begins, or should begin, for I hold that it is

the early handling which makes him a tractible and do-

mestic animal. It is education and not hereditary influ-

ence that man has had over him for thousands of j'ears

that makes him submissive. It is known that when a

young white child, one whose parents have led a civilized

life for a thousand j-ears or more, has been stolen and

reared to manhood by wild Indians, that the only differ-

ence between him and his adopted parents is color. Thehorse, dog and hog I know from personal observation

will turn out the same way. Hence I say that it is very

important that colts should be handled early. In fact,

I believe they should be broken to the halter before thej^

are weaned.

2. Feeding. Several months before weaning, the

mare should be fed on or near the ground where the foal

can have access to the feed-box; then when taken from

his dam he will not fret, and instead of running around

looking for her, he will go to his feed-box and console

himself by eating oats. All through the first winter,

the colt should be provided with good, comfortable

quarters at night, and turned out in the pasture or large

field during the day, so that he can take his exercise,

which is indispensable to good health.

3. Bridling and Driving. After the colt is halter

broke, slip on the bridle and back saddle, and after the

colt is used to this rigging drive him around with the

lines until he learns to go straight, back and turn. Nowbegin his prim?:ry trotting lessons by putting him along-

side a steady-going old mare to cart or sleigh. Simply

2?

snap the lead strap, about two or three feet long,

to the shaft near the girth and have a long rein

leading from the other side. Then take j-our seat

and start the pair. It is surprising how quicklythe colt learns to fall in line with the movement of

the mare. After awhile put on the breeching andtraces, fasten them securely tight on the girth and havea ring in it near the' shaft-bearer ; buckle a strap tenor twelve inches long, with a snap on the other end,

to the shaft of the vehicle and snap it to the ring in

the colt's girth. Now use a pair of long reins on the

colt, and so permit the free use of his head. He hasno weight to draw and will soon drop into a steady

stride, and unwittingly grow way-wise. Presently his

muscle and strength are sufficient to enable him to goalone. About the first of the year trj' him to a light

cart or sleigh. Begin with slow, short lessons. Thisis the critical period of the colt's career. With properhandling he may become a race horse or a plug ; all de-

pends upon the breaking.

4. Intelligence of Horses. — Trainers, jockeys, andmany owners must know that the colt is a very poorrea.soner. Mentally he is the weakest of all our do-

mestic animals except the sheep ; therefore, when oncehe is taught a trick or is allowed to do a certain act notwanted of him, it is with great difficulty that he can un-learn what he has already learned, on account of his

mental weakness. A horse kicks his master to deathwhen turned upside down with foot in stirrup, because in

that position the horse does not know what his master is,

and" suffers from imaginary fear. He kicks the shafts of

a buggv until his legs are broken, because he does not

know that the shafts are harmless and that he himself is

doing the damage. He runs away under the saddle or in

the harness, because he hasn't sense enough to knowbetter. I heard a man, and one who claimed to be a

horseman, say, not long ago, that a certain hoi"se has moresense than the average boy. I saw the same horse

shortly afterward nearly turn a buggy over, trying to get

away from a piece of paper that was fluttering across the

road. I asked this gentleman the following question

:

"Suppose a bo)' should butt his brains out running awaj'

from a piece of paper, what would you think of him ?"

"Why, he would be an infernal fool." "And so if r.

hor.se," said I, "who frightens at nothing." It is our

love and admiration which makes him so smart and

beautiful in our eyes, like the woman and her babe,

always the brightest and the prettiest. Affection warp.'i

the judgment.

Tie a Rope with a SIip=Noose on Lower Jaw, then Bring It

Over the Neck as Above.

5. Ignorance of Drivers. — When trainers and

jockeys once fully understand the horse, then training

will become more perfect than it is now. There is too

much superstition and not enough intelligence among the

average trainers at the present' time. The}- often do

things without knowing why they do so. All follow

each other without investigation or inquiry'. Training

has improved bj' slow degrees, because the trainer's mind

heretofore has groped in the midnight of ignorance. For

years they sweated the horse to death, yet they could not

give any suitable reason for their practice, and to-day

the}' follow manj' practices which are not sound. For

instance, when a horse is to be given a trial he will be

galloped, saj^ a mile and a half or two miles, and the last

quarter the horse will be sent along at nearly and some-

times full speed; after a breathing spell and a little

rubbing he is sent on his trial. Often a horse is given a

sharp run just before he starts in a race. Both of these

practices are against reason and common-sense. A horse

should never be speeded just before a race. It would be

just as proper to have a fighter make four or five rattling

rounds with some one just before going into the ring to

fight for his life. The ordinary gallop of the horse in

condition is sufficient for a warming up, and fast workjust before a race is a waste of force.

i66 PRACTICAL RULES FOR BUYING HORSES. [The Farmers'

JAY EYE SEE.

HOW TO TELL A GOOD HORSE, AND PRACTICAL RULES FOR PURCHASING.

1. In a good horse the ears must be small and pointed

and wide between. The eye must be large and full and

stand out prominently.

2. An intelligent horse must have considerable width

between the eyes. The nostrils must be large and thin,

neck long and tapering, with stout hea^y muscles on the

top and thin through the middle.

3. A good horse must always have a short back, broad

and long hips, and close jointed. A good traveler musthave proper proportions, namely : the withers should be

exactly midway between his ears and the coupling of the

hip. From the point of the withers to the shoulder

should be just as long as from the coupling over the

kidneys to the point of the hip by the tail.

4. A horse which has thick ears; small, flat, sunkeneyes; small, thick nostrils, and is narrow between the

eyes and ears, with a thick, clumsy neck or a curved

nose, is a horse that is liable to be vicious, clumsy, awk-ward or balky, and never can be taught anything.

5. The first thing for the purchaser to observe are the

eyes.

6. If the eyes are clear and full and brilliant, the

horse possesses good sight ; but when the eyes are

flat or sunken and have a dead and lifeless look, the

horse will probably lose his sight in the course of a few

years.

7. The iris or circle that surrounds the sight of good

eyes should be distinct and of a pale cinnamon color.

8. The teeth should be sound and as to age, see Teeth

in another part of the book.

9. The feet should be smooth and tough, of a middle

size, without wrinkles ; the frogs horny and dry.

10. A good horse for traveling or service must be wide

across the chest.

11. The back should be straight or have only a mod-

erate sinking below the withers. The ribs should be

large, flanks smooth and full. A horse for strength and

durability should have considerable width across the hips.

12. A broken-winded horse pinches in his flanks, with

a very^ slow motion, and drops them suddenly. A horse

with the heaves can be easily detected by noticing the

movement of the abdomen in breathing. Always have

the horse travel by walk, trotting and running, to see that

there is no lameness.

13. A horse that travels with his feet very low is very

apt to be a stumbler. See that the horse lifts his feet

well in taking a step. To remedy the difiiculty of

stumbling put on heavy shoes, it will make the horse lift

his feet higher. See that the horse is gentle by placing

j^our hand on difierent parts of the bod}'.

14. Remember that he who buj's a horse needs a hun-

dred eyes.

.^^ w$\in:?

Four Years' Teeth.

Five Years' Teeth. Six Years* Teeth. Seven Years' Teeth.

The only way to

determine a horse's

age is by the appear-

ance of the teeth.

They undergo certain

changes, which any

careful observer will

easily notice. A horse

has 40 teeth-24 grind-

ers, 12 front teeth and

4 tusks. A mare has

36 teeth—24 grinders,

12 front teeth, sometimes tusks, but not often.

1. Eight to fourteen days after birth, the first middle

nippers of the set of milk teeth are cut, four to six weeks

afterwards the pair next to them, and final.'y, after six or

eight raonths, the last.

2. All these milk teeth have a well defined body and

neck, and a slender fang, and on their front surface

grooves of furrows, which disappear from the middle

nippers at the end of one year, from the next pair in two

years, and from the incisive teeth (cutters) in three years.

Eight or Nine Years' Teeth.

3. A New Method.—

14 days old, 4 nipper teeth.

3 months old, 4 middle teeth.

6 months old, 4 corner teeth.

1 3'ear, cups leave nipper teeth.

2 3'ears, cups leave middle teeth.

2}4 years, sheds nipper teeth.

3 years, full size nipper teeth.

3^ years, sheds middle teeth.

4 years, full size middle teeth.

4>2 years, sheds corner teeth.

5 years, full size corner teetli.

6 years, large cut in corner teeth, small in middle

teeth, and still smaller in nipper teeth.

7 years, cups leave nipper teeth.

8 years, cups leave middle teeth.

9 years, cups leave corner teeth.

10 years, groove in upper corner teeth.

15 years, half-way down upper corner teeth.

20 years, at the bottom corner teeth.

4. The teeth grow in length as the horse advances in

years. But at the same time his teeth are worn away by

use about one-twelfth of an inch every j'ear, so that the

black cavities of the center nippers below disappear in the

sixth year, those of the next pair in the seventh year,

IManual.I THE TEETH—HOW TO TRAIN HORSES.

and those of the corner teeth in the eighth year. Also

the outer corner teeth of upper and lower jaw just

jneet at eight years of age.

5. At nine years old, cups leave the two center nippers

above, and each of the two upper corner teeth has a little

sharp protrusion at the extreme outer corner.

6. At the age often, the cups disappear from the ad-

joining teeth.

7. At the age of eleven, the cups disappear from the

comer teeth above, and are only indicated by brownish

«pots.

8. The oval spots become broader, and change, fromthe twelfth to the sixteenth year, more and more into a

triangular form, and the teeth lose, finally, with the

twentieth year, all regularity.

9. The tusks, or canine teeth, conical in shape, with a

sharp point, and cur\'ed, are cut between the third andfourth years, their points become more and more roundeduntil the ninth year, and after that, more and more dull

in the course of years, and lose, finally, all regular shape.

Mares have, frequently, no tusks, or only very faintly

indicated ones.

THE FAVORITE DRAUGHT-HORSE.

HOW TO TRAIN3 DRIVE AND BREAK HORSES.the heavy load. Had the horse been stalled \dth aheavy load, and whipped until the driver and horse wereboth certain he could not pull it, you would have a horse

thoroughly broken not to pull. This writer says :

" Let me impress the truth of this by calling to mindanother illustration of the result of similar treatment. I

have seen men who had horses given to pulling upon the

halter, put one on them they were confident the horses

could not break, and then whip them over the head in

order to make them pull. Nearly always when a horse

finds he can not pull loose he will walk up to the hitching

post. I have heard men argue that a horse could be so

thoroughly broken in this way that a tow-string wouldhold him. There is some truth in it, though not all

horses are to be managed in the same way. A horse of

nervous temperament should never be excited. Theywill always do their best in a perfectly calm state of mind.

" The drivers of fast trotters have taught us this. Theyhave also learned that to keep the horse calm all men in

attendance must remain so. No passionate, profane manever developed great speed in a horse nor trained a

powerful pulling team. With these general principles in

view, and proper attention to details, an}' team may be

trained so that it will be a delight to work them." Have a definite and small vocabulary to use with

your team, and always use the same word for one pur-

pose. Keep the same two horses working together, and

always on the same side. Use open bridles, so that the

team can see what is going on around them. Keep all

attachments strong, that your team will not be in fear

of straining themselves through something breaking.

Use close-fitting collars and harness, and never allow a

horse to become sore from any part of the harness. Teach

your team to start together. Keep them strong and in

good spirits by good and regular feeding, and good care

in every particular. Let them come to heavy pulling

gradually, and not at all until their bones are well

matured."

TEACHING TEAMS TO PULL.

It is a real pleasure to have a team that can be relied

tipon to pull whenever wanted to do so. Any team, if

not of a too highly ner^^ous temperament, may be trained

to perfect reliability. We need first of all and forever

after to recognize that the horse has a mind and at least

•the mental qualities of memory and aflTection. The con-

sideration of paramount importance, this matter, according

to the view of a writer in National Stockman, is to

develop the team's confidence in themselves and in their

driver. It is just as true of a horse as of man, that he

will not exert himself greatly over what he has no hope

.of accomplishing. But different from man, the horse

thinks of previous loads instead of the one to which he is

attached. This is the reason a balk}' horse is apt to

refuse to pull a very light load. He has no way of es-

timating his load only by pulling upon it. Hitch a horse

to a very heavy load, let him pull upon it, then transfer

him to any empty wagon and start him. You will see

Jiim gather himself for a heavj- pull. He has in mind

HOW TO TELL THE DISPOSITION OF A HORSE.

A STUBBORN AND MULISH HORSE.

I. Ever>' one should

remember that a horse

can not understand all

language or words of

command, except so

far as he is taught to

associate them with

1 actions, consequently

a horse can not knowwhat to do until he

is taught.

If a man were to

sit on a block and

simply read the word"whoa to a horse, he imght do it indefinitely withoutteaching him its meaning; but if a horse were moved,setin moderate motion, and immediatelyafter commandthe reins were pulled, he would soon be taught to stop.

The same performance is necessary in teaching a horseto back. For the same reason the team on a street carstarts and stops at the sound of the bell; it is becausethey have become accustomed to being started andstopped at that time

2. ViciousNESS.—To a certain extent some hoi-sesare vicious, but the fault is not so much in the horses, asin the fact that they have not been properly handled orcarefully trained.

Many bad dispositions in horses have been brought onby the bad disposition of those who had them in charge.

Some horses are

dull,while others

are intelligent

;

some are more

easily frightened

than others, con-

sequently great

care and judg-

ment should al-

ways be exer-

cised in training

the horse. For

AN INTELLIGENT HORSE.

Intelligence.—There is just as much difference in

intelligence of a horse as there is difference in men. Some

horses can be taught most anything, while others are

apparently without any faculty of intelligence.

The horse in Fig.

5 requires a gentle

but strong hand in

order to get the

best possible re-

sults. He is high

strung and ner\'0us

and will never un-

der any circumstan-

ces bear the use of

the whip. He will

go until he falls in

his tracks.

Fig. 6 represents one of

those indifferent specim.ens of

horses, heavj', dull and stupid.

He can be driven, but his

gait makes it an annoyance

rather than a pleasure, for it

is almost an impossibility to

get him to go faster than a

walk. He is a horse that tries,,

the patience of a saint, wheabehind time for a train. ,

A HIGH STRUNG HORSE.

A DULL AND STUPID HORSE.

Fig. 7 repre-

sents a horsethat is difiBcult

to manage. Heis not vicious,

but very nerv-

ous and exitable,

and when prop-

erly handled will

become subdued

and kind ; but

unless properly trained he is liable to kick with his

hind feet and strike with his forward feet, and will bite

if an opportunity is offered. He is what may be called an

untrustworthj- hor.se, but the law of kindness will subdue

him, but when in the harness proper vigilance must

always be taken.

NERVOUS HORSE.

THE USE AND ABUSE OF THE CHECK-REIN.

UNNATrk.-VL.

An overdrawn check-rein should never be used. It is

nothing but cruelty to animals and ought to be prohibited

by law. There is onh^ one purpose for which a check-

rein may be used and that is to compel a horse to keep

his head off the ground, and then it is not necessan- to

be tightly drawn. A trotting horse can be steadied by it,

but keeping a horse's head drawn up in a .strained posi-

tion all day is nothing but cruelt}'. The effect can easily

be illustrated by a person having his head thrown back

in this manner for hours at a time. The pain caused by

a check-rein ought to create some sympathy for the poor

dumb animals, who have not only to endure the pain for

hours, but for days and weeks in succession.

A horse of style will show his natural condition without

fastening his head in an unnatural position. Let us re-

member that the poor brute which cannot speak for itself

is dependent entirely upon the mercy of man, and the

torture which we inflict upon the suffering animal will

sometime, no doubt, be meted out to us in some other

way.

REMEDIES FOR KICKING HORSES.^7Z

HOW TO SHOE A KICKING HORSE.The dangerous work of shoeing a kicking horse can be

made very easy. Take a small bolt or wooden pin five

inches long, and double the horse's tail over it and tie it

firmly; then buckle a strap around the hind feet below

the fetlock joint having a ring in the strap ; then tie a

rope over the pin and run the end of the rope through thering on the hind foot, and with the end in hand hold the

rope tightly a little distance from the horse ; then say to

the horse ; "L,ift up your foot," and tighten the rope at

the same time. After a few efforts to release himself hewill give up all resistance and will soon be perfectly cured.

Another Method for Shoeing a Kicking Horse.

The horse with kicking habits while being shod can beeasily managed. Place the rope as shown in the aboveillustration, and recollect that kindness and gentleness in

training a horse is the only method that will overcomethe horse's fault.

STRENGTH OF HORSES DRAWING A LOAD.

What one horse can draw on iron rails on a level road,it will take five horses to draw the same load on ordinarystone pavement, seven on good cobblestone, twentj- onordinary earth road, and forty on a sandy road.

iiiKii\\i\'c, Tin-: Hi iK-i .

HO'W TO BREAK A HORSE FROM KICKING.

In the above illustration you will find a common methodfor throwing a horse.

Put on a strong bridle so that the horse can be easily

held, and attach the ropes, as shown in the above cut.

After throwing the horse a few times, each time letting

him rise at his own pleasure, at the same time speakinggently and handling him as much as may be deemednecessar>', the horse will soon become exhausted, andmost anything can be placed at his heels, and he will not

make any effort to kick. The ropes attached will keephim from extending his legs, and by that means he will

soon learn to stop making the effort.

One lesson a day, for one week, will cure the mosivicious horse.

PROF. GLEASON'S EUREKA BRIDLE.(for subduing vicious horses.)

This is one of the most successful bridles ever appliedfor the management of vicious horses, or for the purposeof doctoring the eyes or making surgical operations. It

is made as follows : Take a small but strong piece of cordten feet long and about one-eighth of an inch in diameter,with a slip noose in one end. To put on the bridle, first

slip the noose around the neck, pass it through themouth over the tongue, from the off" side ; then throughthe noose on the near side, and pull fonvard firmly; nextover the head just behind the ears, from near side ; thenunder upper lip, above upper jaw from off" side, passthrough second cord, and fasten firmly in a bow-knot.This bridle will hold any horse under any circumstances.

1/4 PULLERS AND LUGGERS.—HALTER TIEING.—BALKY AND PAWING HORSES. [The Farmers'

«isi^ \m

How to Drive Pullers and Luggers on the Bit.

1. Professor Gleason, the most noted horse tamer on

the continent, if not in the world, recommends the follow-

ing two methods for horses that pull and lug on the bit

:

Take a strap and buckle around the neck with a ring

underneath the neck sewed on to the strap ; now take the

reins and pull through the bit rings and buckle into the

ring on the strap that is around the neck. Here you

have a purchase on the horse's lower jaw, that will enable

you to hold the worst puller with ease.

2. The second method is as follows : Take a strap

about an inch wide and eighteen inches long, with a ring

one and one-half inches in diameter sewed on to each end

and two smaller rings running loose on the strap. Take

and place the middle of the strap directly under the

horse's lower jaw and bring the ends through the mouth

from opposite sides. Buckle the reins into the- larger

rings and the check pieces of the bridle into the smaller

ones. This makes one of the most effective appliances

for a puller that can be used.

THE SAFEST WAY TO TIE A HALTER.

How best to tie the halter, strap or rope, or whatever

it may be, is shown in two cuts herewith. The first

shows the first stage. The knot is completed by pulling

cm the loop until the knot is tight. Then pull on the

free end of the strap B, until the loop is just large enoughfor B to pass through it. Pass B through and draw it

through as far as possible. The horse cannot possibly

get this knot open ; and the harder he pulls the safer the

knot. To untie the knot, draw B from the loop, and then

a sharp pull on B will open the knot. A is the halter end

of the strap.

HO'W TO MANAGE A BALKY HORSE.

A balky horse is generally the result of a balky driver.

A high-spirited horse with bad management, is liable to

become balk}'.

Remedy.—Lead the horse kindly about with a halter,

petting him occasionally, and let him know that no harmis awaiting him. Then put on a harness and drive him,

being very careful to have him observe every command,

at the same time doing it very gently. Then hitch him

into a light buggy and drive him awhile. By careful

treatment in this way he will sooon be taught to draw

steadilj' and strongly at any load. The trouble with

balky horses is that a driver will soon become provoked,

and by slashing and cracking the whip, and abusing the

animal, it strengthens the bad habit instead of overcoming

it. There is no such thing as a balky horse, if kind and

proper treatment is administered.

HO'W TO KEEP A HORSE FROM PAWINGIN THE STALL.

Some horses have the habit of pawing in the stall, j'et

a simple remedj' will break up the habit in a few nights.

Take a small strap and buckle around the horse's leg

above the knee ; now take a small piece of rawhide and

tie it to the strap which is buckled around the horse's leg

above the knee ; on the other end tie a small block of

wood, say six inches long and about three inches square,

and let it hang down about seven inches, so that every

time the horse paws, the block will strike its shin ; it will

be harmless but it will remind the horse that there is

trouble, and a few nights will completely cure the

nuisance.

Manual.] HOW TO TEACH HORSES TRICKS.

HOW TO TEACH HORSES TRICKS.

1 It is an excellent practice to teach a horse a few

tricks. An intelligent horse will learn verj^ easily andwill enjoy training. It will create more affection and in-

terest for the horse. Most of the tricks are very simple

and easily taught.

2. To make a Bow.—Take a common pin and prick

him in the breast very lightly. The horse will raoxo. his

head up and down the same as he would in brushing a

fly from his breast. Repeat this until the horse will

move his head up and down at the .slightest movementof the hand, and in a few lessons he will make a bowwhenever spoken to.

3. To lie doicn.—To make a horse lie down, use the

strap as shown in "Controlling Vicious Horses," and

throw the horse or colt quicklj^ at the same time telling

him to lie down, but be sure and always speak the wordsemphatically io lie doiun as you throw him. Use any of

the common methods for throwing a horse.

4. Hoiv to sit itp.—First put a bridle on the horse and. cause him to lie down. Then step behind him and place

the right foot on his tail, keeping the reins in j-our hands

and by standing up on the horse's tail and pulling the

bridle rein tightly you can leach an intelligent horse to

sit up quite readily.

5. To shake kands.—Place a strap around the horse's

leg next to the hoof, and stand directly in front. Thensay shake hands, at the same time pulling the strap andpulling his foot forward. He will soon learn to do this

without the strap if the necessarj' patience is applied.

6. To saj' 710.—Stand at the side of the horse, holdinga pin in your hand, and prick him lightly in the withersand the horse will shake his head as though he weredriving away a fly. You can soon train your horse to dothis so nicely that he will shake his head at the word of

command.

7. Various Tricks.—A horse may be taught to do manythings, if patience and perseverance is practiced on thepart of his trainer. A colt may be taken when verj-

young and taught many interesting and amusing tricks.

A horse can be taught to be driven without bridle or

lines, or to jump over a pole or fence, and many other

interesting and amusing things. Patience, perseverance

and kindness will do most anything with an intelligent

horse.

HOW TO MAKE A HORSE LIE DOWN.Fasten the fore-foot of the horse as shown in the abova

illustration. Then put a surcingle around his body andfasten one end of a long strap around the other fore-leg,

just above the hoof Place the other end under the sur-

cingle, so as to keep the strap in the right direction. Takehold of it with j-our right hand ; stand on the left side ofthe horse ; take the bit in your left hand, pull steadily onthe strap with your right ; bear against his shoulder till

you cause him to move. As soon as he lifts his weight,

)-our pulling will raise the other foot, and he will have to

come on his knees. Keep the strap tight in your hand,

so that he can not straighten his leg. Hold him in this

position and turn his head towards j-ou ; bear against hia

side with your shoulder, kindly but steadily, and in abo^ten minutes the horse will lie down perfectl}' conquered.

Then take off the strap ; straighten out his legs; pet him

for a few minutes, and then let him rise. Repeat this

about twice a day for a few da5's, and the horse will lie

down whenever the proper signs are given him. If the

horse has fought hard in going down he will usually lie

very still, and you can scrape the sweat off and rub him

down and he will lie perfectly quiet. In this position you

have the opportunity of making him perfectly familiar

with you, and the more j-ou fondle him and reconcile him

to you, the better. A vicious horse is thus conquered,

and an intelligent horse is made to perform a convenient

and pleasant trick.

HOW TO BREED AND CARE FOR HORSES.

^17

1. If a horse shows signs of blind-staggers or megrims,

give it doses of epsom salts and bran mashes and exer-

cise.

2. Castor oil rubbed on warts will often cause them to

disappear.

3. Do .not breed unsound mares. The colts will not

pay.

4. Don't put a tight check on the horse. It is not a

thing of beauty, but of cruelty.

5. If you think it is a trotter, sell it at the first good

offer.

6. A fretting mare will produce a fretting colt.

7. Disposition is a great deal in breeding animals.

8. The farmer with only one team should have the

colts come in the autumn.

9. Linseed meal acts as a digester. It is an excellent

food to open the pores, hence a good spring food.

10. If the horse bloats and has colic it is a sure sign of

indigestion. A very little magnesia and a little salt

mixed with its grain, would help to correct the flatu-

lency.

11. A horse will not eat out of a sour trough.

12. Do not think of using a common stallion because

he is cheap. His get will be cheap to sell and dear to

rear.

13. Carrots and bran mashes will help the mother

when the little foal comes.

14. Feed the horse which is inclined to the heaves verj-

little hay, and always wet this, and wet the grain. If the

case is bad, cut the hay and mix it wet with the grain.

The hea\y horse should never be fed more than five or

six pounds of hay a day. A half pint of raw linseed mealput into the feed, if the horse will eat it, will do it good.

15- A horse should be thoroughly groomed ever>- day.

It improves the health as well as the looks.

BREEDING HORSES.

Future Is Encouraging for Those Who EmployRight Methods.

The mare has generally been overtaxed. One colt in

two years is enough for ordinary- stock. It should be

sufficient, as a rule, in the case of extra choice mares.

The anxiety to breed a sjDan that shall be "full brothers"

may be in some instances pardoned where this rule is

disregarded. Then, however, two seasons of rest could

be taken to good advantage. There is a fair profit in

extra good colts when a ver>' choice mare produces eight

or ten of them in a life-time. A painstaking stockman

who looks after details carefully need seldom fail in ob-

taining regular results in alternate years. The man whohas irregular breeders and is careless about details might

as well continue the sickly effort yearly, as his returns

will be below the average of the one who breeds only in

alternate years. The 12-year-old mare that has produced

regularly the past five years, or the six-year-old that has

her second or third youngster this spring should surely

have a rest. The vitality of the older dam needs recruit-

ing, and the checked growth of the younger one needs

recoven,^ Of course, use a very choice stallion. Better

go 20 miles at a $20 fee and $5 more for expenses, than

to use a poor stallion with free service. The offspring of

the one will be prized and cared for, while that of the

other will not be in demand. If possible, encourage some

horseman in the community to buy a rare stock horse.

Give him a written promise of patronage for three years,

and don't disappoint him if he does his part. A good

colt this year means a good horse four years hence.

178 ARTIFICIAL BREEDING. [The Farmers'

ARTIFICIAL HORSE BREEDING.

A Method Rapidly Coming into General Use.

Artificial impregnation, while 3'et a comparatively new

subject in this country, has received considerable atten-

tion from French veterinarians who pronounce it a great

success. Throughout the horse-breeding countries of

the world this subject is now prominent, and in our own

country it is no longer an experiment. Repiquet, the

well-known equine authority, says : "The method can

profitably be emplo3-ed for the following purposes

:

1. As a remedy against certain cases of sterility.

2. In order to impregnate several mares at one time.

In this way the greatest possible use is made of a

valuable stallion. The requisite amount of fluid is trans-

ferred from the mare covered by this stallion to the othei

mares. The reasons for bringing artificial impregnation

into general use are :

First, service of valuable aged stallion can be utilized

for twice the usual number of mares.

Second, the getting power of a stallion can be preserved

unweakened for a longer period.

Third, since the number of foals got by a sure stallion

can be doubled, or even trebled, the gains of breeders can

be increased.

Fourth, mares which bear with difficulty can be brought

to foal with almost infallible certaintj'. In practice, the

fourth heading is of great importance. It is well-known

to everj- breeder that there are a number of brood mares,

which, after foaling a number of times, often remain un-

impregnated. The reason for this frequently is that the

margin of the mouth of the womb has been injured at the

last birth, and in healing has given rise to a growth which

prevents the necessary fluid from entering the womb. In

artificial impregnation, however, the nozzle of the im-

pregnator can be inserted into the mouth of the womb.

I. I. The seven cervical vertebrae, or bones of the

neck. 2. The sternum, or breastbone. 3. The scapula,

or shoulder-blade. 4. The humerus, or bone of the arm.

5. 5. The radius, or bone of the forearm. 6. The ulna,

leg. 23. 23. The pastern of the hind-feet, including the

upper and larger bone.

SIGNS FOR THE DIFFERENT DISEASES OFTHE HORSE.

1. As the horse has no way of communicating to us

his pains or distress, we must find out the difficulty by

the symptoms.

2. The pulse in a healthy horse beats from 36 to 40

times per minute, and any variation from this number

will indicate excitement, disease, or suffering of some

kind.

3. In fever the pulse will run from 45 to 75 per minute.

If the horse becomes very weak the pulse will flutter and

var3\

4. A horse generally refuses food, when sick.

5. In colds, catarrh or glanders the eyes water and

just before death become glassy.

6. The natural color of the inside of the nose is a light

pink. In fever or inflammation of any of the internal

organs it becomes red.

FEELING OF THE PULSE. LISTENING TO THE BREATHING.

7. Cold ears indicate inflammation of the lungs^

pleurisy or colic.

8. Heavy breathing indicates inflammation of lungs,

rapid breathing, fever. Deep snoring breathing, brain

disease.

9. Cold feet indicate inflammation of the lungs, bowels,

bladder, etc.

10. Dry hair, standing straight out, indicates indigeS'

tion, glanders, worms, skin disease, the condition of being

hidebound, and consumption.

11. A hot skin indicates local inflammation or the

presence of fever.

12. If the manure is ver}^ offensive, it indicates indi-

gestion. If tlie balls are shiny, it indicates glanders or

worms.

13. A stoppage of the urine, or the passage of only a

small quantity at a time, attended by great straining,

indicates inflammation of the bladder or kidneys. Agreat quantity of water indicates diabetes.

14. If the horse lies down carefully and rolls, he is

suffering from flatulent colic. If he drops down quickly

and rolls over rapidly several times, it is spasmodic colic.

In inflammation of the bowels he lies down carefully, and

remains stretched out and paws and strikes.

15. If a horse stands still like a statute, it is a symptomof the lock-jaw.

16. Stiffness in the walk may indicate rheumatism,

founder, corns, or some other local difficulty in the legs

or joints.

17. If a horse does not sweat, or the sweat dries upsuddenly, sunstroke or some seriolis inflammation is the

cause.

18. If a horse stands straddling, or walks in that waya lame back or seme kidney or bladder disease is the

cause.

Manual.] FEEDING AND DOCTORING HORSES.-INTERFERING.-HALTER PULLING. l8r

PRACTICAL RULES ON KEEPING, FEEDINGAND DOCTORING HORSES.

1. Young horses as well as old should be sheltered

every night during the winter months.

2. Never allow horses to become poor for want of grain

and hay.

3. Never grain horses highly, unless they work accord-ingly.

4. Always feed good hay, there is but little nourishmentin poor hay.

5. Never drive or work a horse when he refuses hisfeed.

6. Chopped hay, moistened and salted, is the best wayto feed hay.

7. Ground feed is the most profitable way to feed grain.

8. The natural pulse of the horse is from 36 to 40 perminute.

9. More diseases in horses come from short check reins

than from all other causes.

ID. Never feed or water horses when warm.12. Horses should be exercised everj- day.

12. Never strike a horse on the head, and you will find

him much more easily handled.

13. Never feed a horse damaged grain.

14. A horse should be groomed once a day.

15. Old horses should be fed on chaff instead of hay.

HOW TO CURE INTERFERING.CAUSES. It is usually the effect of bad shoeing.

When colts interfere it is because they are leg wear}-.

Some horses naturally interfere from the natural forma-

tion of the limbs.

When the interfering comes from defective shoeing,

use a light shoe and have it set by a competent black-

smith. Make the shoe higher on one side than on the

other if necessary, the same will cause widening of theweb of the shoe and this has a good effect.

When horses interfere, the first thing to do is to get

some leather protectors for immediate protection, andremedy the diflBculty as soon as possible.

A SURE REMEDY FOR HALTER PULLING.1. This is a very serious and annoying trait, and very

difficult to overcome. Many n n-^ways occur, muchdamage is done, and many lives are lost by horses, whichcan not be safely tied.

2. Remedy. Bore a hole through a plank, and spikeit upright in front of the manger, with the hole about six

feet from the floor. Take a strong rope, and tie one endinto the halter and run it through the hole in the plank

;

then tie a stone 200 pounds in weight to the other end,

giving the horse about the usual length of halter.

3. In order to have the stone swing clear, nail a piece

of board or scantling just beneath the hole in the plank.

4. Another Method. Take a ^s inch rope, one endof which pass through the lower side ring of the halter,

then through the top side ring of the halter, then underthe tail of the horse, then back to the halter and pass

through the two rings of the halter on the other side

(same as first), then use the two ends of the rope for a

hitching strap.

A surcingle is necessarj', in order to keep the rope in

its place.

ANOTHER CURE FOR HALTER PULLING.A NEW REMEDY.

Take an ordinary rope strong enough to answer the

purpose of a halter and long enough to pass through

between the fore-legs and under the surcingle, tie with a

slip knot or with a leather strap to one of the hind feet.

Horses are intelligent animals and a few trials will

satisfy anj- horse that it is a failure. He will cease to

pull, in fact, j-ou cannot make him pull on the halter, as

Page 192: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

iS: THE HORSE—HIS ILLS AND REMEDIES. [The Farmers

the halter pulls both ways and soou throws the horse. Alew experiences will be sufficient to break him for all

time.

SOON CURED OF HALTER PULLING.

DIFFICULT OR UGLY HORSES TO BRIDLE.

Many people are less intelligent that the horses whichthey handle and the habit of hitting a horse on the head

or about the face will soon make an ordinary horse

almost unmanageable and often in consequence becomevery ugly to bridle.

Remedy. Treat the horse kindly, handle him gently,

pat him on the face. If the horse is specially vicious,

take a rope and make a slip knot and place it on the

lower jaw and tie it tightly to the manger then bridle andunbridle the horse until he becomes perfectly quiet andhe will submit to being handled without any effort to

throw his head back. A few trials will be suflScient to

break him of this annoying habit.

HOW TO GIVE A HORSE MEDICINE.

I. The old practice of drawing the head of a horse

by the halter over a beam or pole to administer medicine

is as cruel as it is absurd.

2. The lower jaw of the horse -vvhile taking medicine

should remain perfectly free, as shown in the above

illustration.

3. Method. Take a forked stick or a common pitch-

fork and run it through a small strap fastened to the

upper jaw of the horse. No strangling nor struggling

will take place. Neither man nor beast can drink unless

the lower jaw is free to move.

THE RESULT OF A HEAVY MAN RIDING A YOUNG COLT.

A Cure for Galls, Cuts, Sores, Ulcers, etc.

Cleanse the sores thoroughly bj' washing them with

castile or tar soap. Then apply the following ointment

:

2 ounces of calomel,

4 ounces of white lead,

4 ounces of pulverized blood root,

4 ounces of pulverized alum.Or,

4 ounces sweet oil,

2 ounces calomel,

4 ounces castile soap.

SWEENY.Cause.—Sweeny is the result of straining the muscles

on the outer side of the shoulder-blade. It occurs mainly

in young horses. It is the result of too hard work or

traveling on uneven ground and pulling a heavy load.

Symptoms. — Shght lameness, wasting away of the

shoulder muscles, which become tender to the hand whenpressed upon. The difference can be seen by comparing

the two shoulders.

Treatment.—Rub the .shoulder severely with a flannel

twice a day, or apply the following mild bn'ster remedy

:

I pint of ammonia,

3 pints of lard.

Apply twice a day and it will take the place of the

friction caused by rubbing. Give the horse rest until

fully recovered.

Manual.] SHOULDER JOINT LAMENESS ; RINGBONE; SPLINT; BONE SPAVIN. i8-

SHOULDER JOINT LAMENESS.This is a very serious difficulty to remedj'.

Symptoms.—The horse

drags the leg with oue

toe on the ground and

throws the leg out in at-

tempting- to move it, and

it is with great difficulty

that the horse can rest

his foot.

Treatment.—This disease being similar to spavin in the

hock-joint, should have similar treatment. If the part is

very hot, reduce the temperature by a cold cloth, or a hot

fomentation might work well instead of the cold ; then

give some treatment as for spavin. Give the horse plentj'

of dry bedding and make it very soft and deep.

WATER FARCY.

Cause.—It is the result of weakness in old horses,

and an inflammatorj' condition in the young. It is gen-

erally produced by long

continued labor without

proper hours of rest ; it

sometimes causes debil-

ity, and water farcy is

the result.

Symptoms.—T^h.^ horse

will hold the leg up as

seen in annexed illus-

tration, and will gener-

ally be lame, will not eat,

but will be very thirsty.

Treatment.—Give the horse perfect rest, and feed

ground feed well moistened ; a quantity of wheat bran

may be profitably fed ; bathe the limb in cold water and

rub every day, and apply bone liniment, found in other

parts of the book. Give the horse some good condition

powder daily for two weeks.

RING-BONE.Cause.—It is generally caused by a natural weakness

of the joint, or is the result of injuries or over-exertion.

Symptovis.—Lameness, with an inability to move the

limb quickly.

Treatmetit.—The same as for bone spavin.

SPLINT.Splint is a small bony enlargement on the inside of the

fore-leg, just a little below the knee-joint, which generally

occurs in young horses. It is the result of overw-ork or

hard driving.

Treatment.—The same as for Bone Spavin

BONE SPAVIN.Cause.—Spavins are caused by sprains, blows, hard

work, hereditary predisposition, etc.

Symptoms.—Lameness, with a swelling of the hock-

joint. Lameness generally appears before the enlarge-

ment of the joint.

Treatment.—Many modes have been adopted in treat-

ing the bone spavin. Sharp instruments have been

struck with considerable force into the joint, all kinds of

blistering and caustic applications have been tried.

Firing is also practiced. But all of these forms of treat-

ment are very cruel and result in little benefit. Thefollowing prescription will be found as good as any other

form of treatment:

1 drachm of bin-iodide of mercurj-.

2 ounces of lard.

Mix well together and apply once a day for two weeks.

Another : 4 ounces of tincture of capsicum,

4 ounces of tincture of opium,

4 ounces of essence of sassafras,

4 ounces of essence of wormwood.

Mix and apply over the parts affected and rub briskly

with the hand.

Dr. B. J. Kendall's Spavin Cure is also highly recom-mended.

How to Cure Bone Spavin.

Bone spavin is an inflammation and deposit or growth

of bone on the inner part of the hock-joint. Lameness

and soreness are the consequences of this abnormal

growth.

Home Treatment. Give the horse plenty of rest, and

apply hot water and vinegar, and give the horse plenty

of bran and flax-seed. For later stages of the disease

blistering may be helpful. A hot iron is perhaps more

efficient.

A Liniment for Blood Spavin, Windgalls, Etc.

(horse liniment.)

Alcohol, 8 ounces.

Tincture cantharides, 2 ounces,

Oil wormwood, 2 ounces,

Oil stone, 2 ounces,

Turpentine, 2 ounces,

Oil hemlock, 2 ounces.

Iodide potassium, 4 drachms.

Shake thoroughly before using, and apply once a day

for one week, then grease the parts for one week and

then apply again as before until cured.

1 84 BLIND STAGGERS; WEAK TENDON'S; WORMS; POLL EVIL; LINIMENT. [The Farmers'

BLIND STAGGERS.Catises.—Excessive heat or cold, bruises on the head,

rheumatism, influenza, indigestion or a tight collar.

Symptoms.—Pulling back on the halter, plunging for-

ward or running ahead, regardless of obstacles or obstruc-

tions in the way, staggering first one way and then

another and often dropping down. Pulse often rapid,

breathing hard or panting, twitching of the eyes and

muscles.

Treaime?it.—Give a good dose of phj-sic and reduce the

diet. If in season turn out to grass for a time, if grass

is not in season give an occasional physic, and feed

laxative food.

Above all give the horse rest, and avoid a tight or

badly fitting collar, when he is sufScientl}' well to be

worked. Feed the animal on ground feed, made up with

bran and other laxative food. A good feed of bran or

flax-seed should be occasionally given all work horses

early in the Spring.

HOW TO CURE WEAK TENDONS.Use the following celebrated receipt

:

Zinc Sulphate, i drachm,Tr. Iodine, i drachm,Tr. Arnica 2 drachms,

Fl. Ext. Hamamelis,2 drachms,

Aqua, q. s., i quart.

Rub the tendons with this lotion and bandage, letting

the bandage remain on for about two hours. Then the

legs should have a good hand-rubbing, and in four or six

hours the bandages may again be applied, and left for

the same length of time. If the tendons are verj^ bad,the bandage may be wet with the lotion before applying,and may remain on for three or four hours. Each timethe bandages are removed have the legs well hand-rubbed. Reduce his work, giving simply exercise. If

this treatment does not strengthen them, blistering

should be resorted to with absolute rest for a few weeks.

WORMS.Cause.—The cause is very uncertain, and many theo-

ries have been brought before the public.

SymptoTus.—Symptoms of worms are a rough, harsh

coat, irregular appetite,

a rubbing of the tail, ft^—'—^''K'

breath occasionally hot

and fetid, and .sometimes

a short, dry cough, the

animal appears poor in

flesh and in spirits, and

is sometimes attacked

with convulsions, which

may terminate in death if not speedily relieved.

Treatment.—Give a good, strong dose of physic. If

that is not sufiBcient, give the following prescription for

three successive nights

:

3 drams of calomel,

I dram of tartar emetic.

Mix, and divide into three powders.

A SURE SIGN OF WORMS.

POLL-EVIL.Caiise.—A tight halter, or the use of the martingal

in driving ; the horse striking the head against the wall

or joists when too low, or against any other object;

blows dealt on the head, etc.

Symptoms.—A hot and tender swelling appearing on

top of the neck, which soon breaks and discharges large

quantities of thick and offensive matter, causing stiffness

of the neck and rendering the horse a most loathsome

object.

Treatment.—^ ounce of common potash,

I drachm of extract of belladonna,

Yz ounce of gum arable.

Dissolve the gum arable in a little water; then mix

and force into the ulcer with a small syringe. Cleanse

the sore first with good tar soap and water. Only about

one-quarter of this preparation should be used at once,

and repeated in three days, if required.

BONE LINIMENT.(man or beast.)

Tincture of camphor, 2 ounces,

Tincture of capsicum, 2 ounces,

Tincture of myrrh, i ounce,

Oil spike, i ounce,

Spirits of turpentine, i ounce,

British oil, i ounce.

Oil origanum, i ounce.

Shake thoroughly before using. This is an excellent

remedy for bruises, sprains, swollen joints, or lameness

of any kind.

How to Cure Horses' Contracted Feet.

Shoe him \yith tips, as shown in the ilkistration above.These must be put on in a proper manner, or they will<lo more harm than good. The tip should be made ofthin steel, and countersunk in the toe. By countersunkwe mean that a space should be cut out of the horn of thetoe just deep and large enough to admit a tip, so that thelower surface of the tip and the lower surface of the backpart of the foot will be on an exact level.

DISTEMPER, INFLUENZA AND EPIZOOTIC.Catise.—The influences causing these disorders are not

ver>' well known. It attacks all grades of horses. Alsoconsiderable diversity of opinion exists as to whether it is

contagious or not. Some eminent authorities claim thatit is, and others claim that it is not.

5)'w//o;;w.—Weakness, muscular debility, staggeringwalk, chills and shivering, loss of appetite, water dis-charged from the eyes, the pulse feeble and beating fromfifty to sixty times per minute. The bowels and kidneysalso suffer, the excretions being scanty.

Treahnmi.—Flace the animals in a warm, dr>- stall,

blanket them well and bandage their legs. If verycostive, give two drachms of aloes in a warm solution ofwater. Then give the following prescription :

4 ounces carbonate of ammonia,4 ounces gentian.

Make into twelve pills and give one each morning andevening. If this remedy furnishes no relief, an experi-enced horse doctor should be summoned.

CRIBBING.Caiise.^Acidity of the stomach, the re.sult of sameness

or unwholesomeness of food. Poor ventilation in barnsand stables.

SvMpfoms.—The animal rests his teeth on some firmsubstance, and stretches his neck and body backwards, intrj-mg to throw off the gas, which has accumulated in thestomach.

Treabnent.—A cribber is easily known by the roughand ragged appearance of the outer edges of the teeth.Place a box of ashes and rock salt near by, so that, theanimal can eat it at pleasure. It is a good plan tosprinkle a little lime or magnesia, for a few days, over thefood. Cribbing is a difficult disease to cure, but care andperseverance will overcome it. Good ventilation andchange of food are absolute necessities to promote a cure.

HOW TO CURE DISTEMPER.3 ounces hops,

33 drops carbolic acid.

Put into two-thirds of a pailful of boiling water andforce the animal to inhale the steam for fifteen or twentyminutes at a time three times a day. Apply a mustardpoultice to the throat. Feed ground feed mixed in warmwater. Give internally once a day :

I ounce powdered gentian,3 ounces Peruvian bark,I ounce powdered copperas.

Mix, and divide into nine nowders.

LAMPAS.Cause—It is the result of young horses cutting their

teeth.

Symptoms.—A swelling of the ridges behind the upperfront teeth, which often prevents the animal from eating

his food.

Treatment.—Take a common pocket-knife and cut theenlarged ridges back of the front upper teeth slightly, so

that they will bleed freely. Be very careful not to cut

them too deeply, and feed the horse soft food for a fewdays.

A CURE FOR CORNS.For corns, remove the shoe and pare out carefully the

horn over the corn, and make the crust ver}' thin, butleaving the ars of the frog untouched. Then apply the

following prescription :

One quarter pound tar.

One quarter pound beeswax,Three ounces glycerine.

One and a half pound lard,

Two drachms nitric acid.

Bots as They Appear in the Stomach and Bowels of the Horse.

BOTS.—The Correct Treatment.Many wrong ideas prevail in reference to bots. All

horses that are exposed to the bot-fly, must have botsmore or less in their stomachs. Dr. Adams made the fol-

lowing experiment: Bots, when taken from the stomach

alive, will live

In strong rum, 25 hours.In strong decoction of tobacco, 1 1 hours,In strong oil of vitriol, 2 hours and iS minutes,In essential oil of mint, 2 hours and 5 minutes.

They will live without apparent injury in spirits ofcamphor 10 hours, fish oil 49 hours, tincture aloes 10hours, in brine 10 hours.

Common-sense consequently teaches us that there is nomedical remedy that will effect a cure for the bots, andthere is no practicing veterinan,- surgeon who can tell thedifference between bots and colic. Do not be misled. Forcolic or the bots give the following prescription :

6 ounces of whiskey,7 ounces of new milk.

Give at one time. If not relieved repeat the dose in 30minutes.

If the above remedy cures the horse, the disease is colic

and not bots.

For bots give slippery elm tea, or potato juice. Thiswill feed and quiet them, but they cannot be destroyed.

FOUNDER.Cause.—Founder is produced by hard driving on a full

stomach, and drinking large quantities of cold water whenheated, or by eating large quantities of green feed, orover-eating grain or large quantities of ground feed.

Sytpfoins.—Stiffness and a disinclination to move. Thelimbs appear stiff'ened and benumbed. A restlessness

shown by the continual looking around, tenderness of thebowels on pressure by the hand.

Treatment.—Give one quart of linseed oil and bathethe legs with hot water. Bleeding is also recommended.A few hours after giving the linseed oil give the follow-ing prescription once a day, until cured

:

Take, Spirits of turpentine, i ounce,Oil of sassafras, i ounce.Alum, powdered, i ounce,Warm water, i pint.

Mix and give as a drench.

Large doses of aloes may be given, instead of the abovaprescription, with very beneficial results.

How to Set and Cure the Broken Leg of a Horse.

It was thought until recently that when a horse's legwas broken that the only alternative would be to shootthe unfortunate animal. If a horse's leg is broken belowthe knee or below the hock joint, the leg can be set andthe horse's life saved.

The horse must first be swung up as in the above illus-

tration. If the front leg is broken then allow his weightto rest on his hind feet, but if his hind leg is broken allowhim to rest his weight on the front feet. The leg shouldbe set in splints or plaster of paris, and the leg will knit

together in about six weeks.

In this way valuable horses can without difficulty besaved for years of useful labor.

THUMPS.Cause.—The thumps are generally the result of over-

work or hard driving in hot weather.

Symptoms.—Violent beating or throbbing in the flanks.

It is properly a palpitation of the heart.

Treatmeiit.—Give the horse plenty of salt and rest. If

this is not sufficient, give the following prescription three

or four times a day :

Spirits of camphor, i ounce,Muriate of ammonia, 10 grains,

Sweet spirits of nitre i ounce,Water, i pint.

Mix, and give as a drench.

\88 INFLAMMATION OF THE KIDNEYS AND LUNGS ;HEAVES

;COLIC. The Farmers'

INFLAMMATION OF THE KIDNEYS.

Cause.—Strain of the kidneys will cause inflammation

in them. A lick over the kidneys, the foolish use of

diuretic medicines, too free use of turpentine or resin will

cause it. Blisters may sometimes cause it. A blister all

around the leg is said to cause it, or strangury'.

Symptoms—K straddling in the hind legs, a constant

straining and effort to make water, the water being passed

in small quantity and sometimes bloody. Pressing over

the kidneys will show that it produces pain. The pulse

and breathing are increased.

Treatment.—0\\^ a dose of linseed oil or aloes, after

which give a small quantity of tobacco. Keep a flannel

cloth, saturated with hot water and vinegar, over the

kidneys for six hours. Then put on a mustard poultice.

Give flaxseed tea freely until relieved.

HEAVES.Cause.—The cause has never been satisfactorily ascer-

tained. It is attributed by some to the derangement of

the digestive organs, by others to rupture of the cells of

the lungs.

Symptoms. — Peculiar double motion of the flanks,

breathing quicker than natural, a short, peculiar cough,

and a windy condition of the bowels.

Treatynent.—The digestive organs should be kept in as

healthy condition as possible. Feed wild prairie hay,

well shaken up. The food should be moistened and the

animal fed regularly. One teaspoonful of lobelia once a

day, given in the food for a week at a time, will often

greatly relieve the animal.

Another good remedy for the heaves is the following

receipt

:

I oz. saltpeter,

J^ oz. powdered ipecac,

4 pints rain water.

Mix and give a pint once or twice a day.

HOW TO STOP THE HEAVES QUICKLY.

2 ounces Spanish brown, 2 ounces lobelia,

3 ounces resin, 8 ounces Jamaica ginger.

2 ounces gentian.

Give a tablespoonful three times a day, and while giv-

ing this medicine the horse will show no indication of

the heaves ; but it is only a temporarj- relief and will not

cure.

INFLAMMATION OF THE LUNGS.

Cause.—TirWvnz horses until they are well warmed up

and allowing them to stand in a cold atmosphere without

being blanketed. Over-exertion, or exposure to cold anc

storms.

Symptoms.—K horse stands with drooping head, legs

apart, and waj-ward breathing. Shivering and irregulai

heat of the skin are common symptoms. A horse occa-

sionally coughs, and the pulse is increased to seventy 01

eighty beats per minute.

Treatment.—Im^ro^&r remedies will do more injur}-

than good, and it is best, as a rule, to call a veterinarj-

surgeon at once. Delay is very dangerous. From sixty

to eighty drops of tincture aconite, given in water every

two hours, at the same time giving one ounce of nitre in

a pint of water, are excellent remedies to make use of,

until a veterinary surgeon can be summoned.

HOW TO CURE THE OOLIO IN HORSES.

Symptoms.—Sleeky look ; at times ver^- fidgety;paw-

ing'with one foot ; caution in lying down ;breathing la-

bored ;walking gives relief; legs and ears natural tem-

perature.

A Home Remedy.

Two common tablespoonfuls (not heaping) of saleratus,

mixed with i >4 pints of sweet milk. Give in one dose.

Another Remedy.

Take i pint of whiskey and add 3 tablespoonfuls of

common gunpowder. Give in one dose. If not better in

an hour, repeat the dose, and give a pint of raw linseed oil.

The following is an excellent remedy for any form of

colic, and should always be kept on hand. It should be

given as soon as possible. If the dose does not relieve,

follow it in half an hour with another :

Chloroform, i ounce.

Laudanum, i ounce,

Sulphuric ether, i ounce,

Linseed oil, 8 ounces.

ries, cuts, bruises, driving of nails in sensative parts of

the foot, in shoeing, etc.

Symptoms.— Stiffness, straggling gait, stiffness of the

jaws, swollen tongue, flowing of saliva from the mouth,and a flickering motion of the eyes.

T'^Yrt/wd'w/.— If possible, give by the mouth- one ounceof aloes and 2 drachms of calomel. Give injections of

belladonna, half an ounce dissolved in a pail of water.

Give upon the tongue every hour, twenty drops of the

following mixture

:

I ounce of dilute hydrocyanic acid.I ounce of the tincture of aconite.

Mix, and shake well together.

A CURE FOR THE CURB.Apply the following receipt morning and

evening

:

Pulv. cantharides, i ounce.Citrine ointment, 4 ounces,Olive oil, I ounce.

WIND-GALLS.Wind-galls may be cured by tying on tightly a pad and

bandage and leaving it on about two hours a day, morningand evening. They will usually disappear in the course of a

week or two. Sometimes, however, it may take four orfive weeks.

Another Method.Draw the liquid out through the nozzle of a hvpoder-

mic syringe and apply a wet bandage. Wind-gal'ls maybe also removed by applying a strong solution of oak-barkand alum.

HOW TO CURE A FISTULA.This disease is the same as Poll Evil, but instead of

being on top of the head it is located along the raised

part of the back and over the shoulders, known as with-

ers. It is due to some violence or bruise.

Treatment.— Open it freely ; when the bleeding has

subsided, syringe it out with a ten per cent, solution of

corrosive sublimate. Get a druggist to prepare the solu-

tion, and use it carefully, it being poisonous. After

syringing it out rub well in over a large surface aroundthe sore one ounce of cerate of cantharides. Chp off the

hair and clean the skin well before applying it. After 2-|

hours grease it. After four days wash it and syringe it

out again as before, and again after another week. If

this does not cure it, repeat the whole course as soon as

the scabs of the blister come off.

FOR SORE MOUTH.Borax, 2 drachms. Vinegar, i pint,

Alum, y^ ounce. Soft water, i pint.

Shake well and wash the mouth ever>' evening and

morning. Feed little hay and feed a pint of flax-seed

once a day until well.

FOR HARNESS AND SADDLE GALLS.Wash the sore parts thoroughly with castile soap and

warm water everj^ evening. Then apply a solution of

common salt and sugar of lead (equal parts) after each

washing.

I ounce solution of diacetate of lead,

STIFLE-JOINT LAMENESS.Cause.—This happens mostly to young horses, and it

is a dislocation of the stifle, or patella, a little bone which

slips off the main bone when the horse steps.

Sympfoms.—The extending of one of the hind legs

backward the extension of the- head, and the swelling of

the stifle-joint.

Treatment.—The only thing to be done is to restore the

bone to its proper place and apply hot vinegar to shrink

the cords. In older horses the cords have become more

stiffened, and when the patella is displaced, it takes con-

siderable force to bring it back into its proper location.

The above illustration will explain itself Keep the

horse quiet and feed well for two weeks.

For lameness, bruises, galls, etc., apply the following

liniment. No better preparation is manufactured.

times a day.

Or apply glycerine and water, in equal parts, and put

into the mixture a few drops of carbolic acid.

Or take glycerine and aloes, equal parts. Bandage in

all cases.

An application of sugar of lead is also a good remed)'.

It takes time to cure the disease ; and if the horse is

feeble, ground feed well moistened should be fed.

HOW TO DESTROY MITES THAT INFESTTHE HORSE.

1. These little mites as shown in the above illustration

a.e greatly magnified so as to show their form. Theyare animal parasites that burrow in the skin, and under

favorable conditions thej' can be transmitted to the mule

or even to man, and maj- live indefinitely on the humanskin. It can only be detected b\- a strong magnifying

glass, moving among the scurf or scab of the infected

skin.

The mite burrows little galleries in and beneath the

scurf of the skin, where it hides and lays its eggs and

where its j'oung are hatched. The mite is wonderfully

prolific, a new generation of fifteen individuals . being

possible ever}' fifteen daj-s, so that in three months the

offspring of a single pair maj' produce a generation of

1,500,000 mites.

2. Chicken lice often mfest the skin of the horse.

3. There is a parasite that attacks the heel and lower

parts of the legs, especially the hind ones, and may be

present for years without extending upon the bod}-. This

parasite lives on the surface, on the hairs, and among the

scabs. It gives rise to great itching, stamping, rubbing

of one leg with the other, and the formation of wounds,

ulcerous sores and scabs. The intense itching will always

suggest this parasite.

General Treatment.—Take two ounces of tobacco and

two ounces of water ; boil thoroughlj- and then applj' to

the skin after removing the scabs with a soft cloth or

brush ; repeat this every fifteen days. Or take i drachm

carbolic acid, 2J2 ounces of water. Mix and apply until

a cure is effected.

A CURE FOR THE ITCH, MANGE. Etc.

Cause.— It is a contagious disease caused by insects

burrowing in the skin.

Symptoms.—Dirty and rusty color of the hair, skni

covered with scales and dandruff", constant rubbing, andpimples about the head and neck and under the mane.The hair falls out and the skin is dn- and hard.

Treatment.—Wash the horse thoroughly all over with

castile soap. Then apply the following mixture :

4 ounces of sulphur,

4 ounces of white copperas,

4 ounces of white hellebore root, in powder.

Mix together in two quarts of buttermilk, and rub theaffected parts freely.

THE MANGE AND ITCH MITE GREATLY MAGNIFIED.

LOTION FOR MANGE.Boil two ounces tobacco in one quart water; strain;

add sulphur and soft soap, each two ounces.

HOW TO CURE CORNS IN HORSES.These are caused b}- that laortion of the foot being

bruised which is the sensitive part of the foot. Have

the foot pared awaj- so as to admit of the shoe being

fitted to the foot so as to set easy. Do not draw

too close with nails. Appl}- a cau.stic to the corn, and

repeat as often as necessary, keeping the foot clean and

soft b\' hoof ointments, and all will go well shortly.

Caustic, muriatic acid, chloride of zinc — either applied,

will have a tendency to efi"ect a cure.

Nasal Gleet, or Discharge from the Eye and Nose.

The cause of this is neglect in distemper, or over-heat

or cold ; this is a white discharge from the nose, and is

not contagious—and can be cured.

Cure.—Stop working him—give of alum )< pound,

is good for strains and reducing swellings. One ounce

of white vitriol, one ounce of green copperas, two tea-

spoonfuls of gunpowder, all pulverized together, and dis-

solved in one quart of soft water, and used cold, rubbing

in thoroughly, is one of the best applications known for

reducing swellings.

HOW TO KEEP A HORSE OR COLT FROM GETTING CAST.

1. Many horses have the trouble of getting cast, and

often are crippled and ruined in a single night. The

above illustration is an excellent remedy to train horses

or colts to lie quietly and comfortably in their stall.

2. Take a strap and fasten it to a joist or hook over-

head, so the animal cannot get its head quite down to the

floor, and hitch the horse to the manger with the usual

length of halter.

3. Colts which are worked ven,- hard, or possess a

nervous temperament, are more frequently liable to be

cast in their stalls.

4. Colts should never be worked too hard. Give them

a chance to grow and mature, if you want a good, valua-

ble and saleable horse.

FOR FIT3.

Fits are caused bj- overflow of blood from the heart to

the brain, which causes concussion. Bleed through the

nose, then give tablespoonful cleansing powders twice a

day on bran mash, then the restorative liquid. Keep the

bowels open.

String Halt.

It is easily known by the horse lifting up the hind leg

when raised Irom the ground. It may be slightly mani-

fested, or in extreme ca.ses the fetlock may even strike

the belly.

Cause. Strains, bad usage, and poor feeding.

Remedy. The longer it remains uncured, the more

ob.stinate it will become. Give nourishing food, and rub

the limb thoroughly each day. The following liniment

will prove excellent

:

I ounce Oil of Origanum,I ounce Laudanum,I ounce Sassafras,

I ounce Tincture of Camphor,I ounce Oil Cedar,

I ounce Spirits of Ammonia,I ounce Sweet Oil.

Mix in two quarts of alcohol. This receipt is also ex-

cellent for swellings, bruises or burns.

HEADS OF TROTTING HORSES.

Disease of the Kidneys.

Caused by feeding dirtj- or mustj- grain, hard drawing,

overloading him, or by giving too nnich turpentine.

Cure.—Bhster over the kidneys, and give the following

pills every day: Take resin i ounce, juniper berries,

ground fine, i ounce, flour 2 ounces ; make all into a

stiff paste, divide into 7 pills, give one every night, then

use the cleansing powder every day ; if the horse has

trouble to get up when he lies down, swing him up for

two weeks—give no food but that which is clean ; this is

half of the cure. Do not work nor ride him.

Groggy Knees.

The cause of this is sprains or over-driving, or by

having corks and no toes on the shoes. This can be

cured in the first stages, but if of long standing there is no

cure.

Cure.—Have shoes made thick at the toe and thin at

the heels ; take linseed oil yi, pint, alcohol 4 ounces,

camphor spirits i ounce, laudanum 2 ounces ; shake and

apply to the back part of the legs, rub it in well everj'

four days ; still increase the thickness of the .shoes at the

toe.

Liquid Blisterer.

Take alcohol i pint, turpentine J^ pint, aqua ammo-nia 4 ounces, oil of origanum i oiuice ; apply this as

spoken of every three hours until it blisters — do not re-

peat oftener than once in eight days, or seven at least,

or it will kill the nair.

How to Cure Corns.

Take oft" the shoe, cut out the corns and drop in a few

drops of muriatic acid, then make the shoes so the}' will

not bear on the part afi"ected. Apply the "Hoof lyiquid"

to the hoof to remove the fever. This is a sure treat-

ment.

DIABETES — Too Free Discharge of Urine, orCannot Hold His Water.

Cure.—Give j^2 ounce of the tincture oi cantharidcs

every morning for ten or twelve days, and il not entirely

well, repeat again, and bleed one gallon from the neck

give clean food, the cause is rotten or musty grain, or too

free use of turpentine. Keep him open with mashes andgreen feed.

Physic Ball.

Aloes yi, ounce, gamboge 3 drachms, oil of juniper

20 drops ; make into a pill with a few drops of molasses,

wrap it up in thin paper and grease it, draw out the

tongue with the left hand, place the gag in the mouthand run the pill back with the right hand until it drops

off, let the head down and give a sup of water. First,

prepare the horse by giving one or two mashes.

Water Farcy.This is a swelling along under the chest, and forward

to the breast. Bleed, rowel in the breast, and all along

the swelling, six inches apart, apply the "General Lini-

ment" to the swelling, move the rowels ever>- day, let

them stay in until the swelling goes down. Give soft

food, mashes, with the "Physic" in it—this is dropsy.

Many causes for it. See Yoat's work on it.

INSTRUMENTS FOR CASTRATING COLTS

This is an instrument called ecraseur and is now ex-

tensively used for castrating colts, and for the removal

of tttmors. The object of using this instrument is, that

no bleeding follows its use.

Castration.

This is an operation for the purpose of depriving the

horse-colt of his entinety by the removal of the testicles.

It is a simple and safe operation. Any person having once

seen it done, can do it also, if he have the resolution to

do so. It has been recently demonstrated that castration

can be performed on aged horses with as much safety as

on those in colthood. This is attributed to the mode or

manner of operation, namely by an instrument called the

Ecraseur.

Sore Mouth or Tongue— Called Cankeror Thrush.

Symptoms.—The mouth runs water, the horse coods or

throws the hay out of his mouth. The cause of this is

often from frosty bits being put into the mouth, or by

eating poisonous weeds.

C«r^.—Take of borax, 3 drachms, sugar of lead, 2

drachms, alum, >4 ounce, vinegar, i pint, sage tea, i pint,

shake all well together, and wash the mouth out ever\'

morning—give no hay for twelve days.

Contraction of Tendons of the Neck,

Symptoms.—Often the neck is drawn around to one

side, again, the horse cannot get his head to the ground.

Cause of this is spraining the horse, and rheumatism pro-

duces the contraction.

Gtire.—If it is taken in the first stages, bleed from the

neck 2 gallons, then foment or bathe the part well with

hot water, rub it dry and take the "General Liniment"

and apply it every day two or three times ; this will cure

it. If it is of long standing, then blister all along the part

affected with "Liquid Blister." Do this every 3 weeks

until he is well and rub with the "White Ointment."

Sore Back.

It the saddle bruises his back and makes it swell, a

greasy dish-cloth laid on hot, and a cloth laid over it,

bound on fifteen minutes (with a surcingle), and repeated

once or twice, will sink it flat. If it is slight, wash it

with a little salt and water only. Alter the saddle, that

it may not press on the tender part, for a second bruise

will be worse than the first.

Eye Wash for Horses.

Take of sugar of lead, 2 drachms, white vitriol, i

drachm, laudanum, i drachm ; add to this i quart of soft

water ; let it stand six or eight hours, and it is fit for use.

Wash the eyes out well ever>' morning, after first wash-

ing the eyes well with cold water ; follow this up for 3

or 4 weeks, and then, if the eyes are not much better,

bleed and give a mild physic. The horse should be kept

on low diet, and not over-heated or worked too hard

;

scalded bran and oats are good.

How to Make the Drops to Make Old HorsesYoung, or to Get Up and Howl.

Take the tincture of asafcetida i ounce, tincture of

cantharides i ounce, oil of anise i ounce, oil of cloves i

ounce, oil of cinnamon i ounce, antimony 2 ounces,

fenugreek i ounce, fourth proof brandy )^ gallon ; let it

stand ten or twelve days, and give ten drops in a pail of

water—or one gallon.

Hoof Bound or Tender Feet.

Cause of this is, fever in the feet, founder, or gravel.

The symptoms are, hot feet and a drawing-in one inch

from the top of the feet at the heels. Never have the

feet spread at the heels, nor rasped above the nail holes,

for it will do the foot an injury. Follow the directions

given here. Use either the hoof ointment or the hoof

liquid ; apply it according to the printed directions. For

hoof bound or tender feet, apply it all around the top of

the hoof down one inch every third daj' ; if for split

hoof, apply it every day. First, have a stiff shoe on the

foot, and cleanse the cut or crack. Never cut or burn

for it.

Hoof Evil or Thrush, Grease Heels.

Cause of this disease is over-feeding, and want of exer^,"

cise, or standing in a filthy stable. Symptoms, well

known : A discharge of offensive matter from the frog

of the foot and around the top of the foot ; often the frog

of the foot will come out, then 3'ou must put on a stiff

shoe to keep the foot from contracting.

Cure.—Give ph^-sic, and poultice the foot with boiled

turnips, add some fine ground charcoal—this must be

done every night, for two or three nights, then wash the

foot clean with castile soap and soft water, and appl}' the

blue ointment every day—keep the horse on a clean

floor and he will be well in twelve days.

Disease of the Liver, or Yellow Water.

Symptoms.—The eyes ran and turn yellow, the base of

the mouth the same, the hair and main gets loose, and he

often is lame in the right shoulder, and very costive.

Cure.—Give the following ball every morning, until it

operates upon the bowels : Take aloes 7 drachms, calo-

mel I drachm, ginger 4 drachms, and molasses enough

to make it into a ball, wrap it in paper and give it; give

scalded bran and oats, grass if it can be got ; when his

bowels have moved, stop the physic, and give i ounce of

camphor in ^ pint of water, every morning for twelve

days, rowel in the breast, and give a few doses of cleans-

ing powder. Turn him out.

Diseases of the Udder and Teats.

This is comparatively rare

in the mare, though in some

cases the udder becomes

painfull}' engorged before

foaling, and a doughy swell-

ing, pitting on pressure, ex-

tends forward on the lower

surface of the abdomen.

Treatment.— The treat-

ment is simple so long as

there is only congestion.

Active rubbing with lard or

oil, or better, camphorated oil, and the frequent drawing off

of the milk, bj' the foal, or with the hand, usuall}' brings

about a rapid improvement. When active inflammation

is present, fomentation with warm water may be kept up

for an hour and followed by the application of the cam-

phorated oil, to which has been added some carbonate of

soda, and extract of belladonna. A dose of laxative

medicine, (4 drachms Barbadoes aloes), will be of ser\-ice

in reducing fever, and ]2 ounce saltpeter daily will serve

a similar end.

Tumors of the Udder.

As the result of inflammation of the udder it may be-

come the seat of an indurated diseased growth, which may

go on growing and seriously interfere with the move-

ment of the hind limbs. If such swellings will not give

way in their early stages to treatment by iodine, the only

resort is to cut them out with a knife. As the gland is

often implicated and has to be removed, such mares can

not in the future suckle their colts, and therefore should

not be bred.

Sore Teats, Scabs, Cracks, Warts.

By the act of sucking, especially in cold weather, the

teats are subject to abrasions, cracks, and scabs, and as

the result of such irritation, or independently, warts

sometimes grow and prove troublesome. The warts

should be clipped off with sharp scissors and their roots

burned with a solid pencil of lunar caustic. This is best

done before foaling to secure healing before suckling be-

gins. For sore teats use an ointment of vaseline i ounce,

balsam of tolu 5 grains, and sulphate of zinc 5 grains.

To Restore the Appetite.

Use of pulverized carawaj' seeds and bruised raisins,

4 ounces each ; of ginger and palm oil, 2 ounces each.

Always use twice as much of the first as of the last, in

whatever quantity you wish to make it. Give a small

ball once a day until the appetite is restored ; use mashes

at the same time.

Wolf-Teeth.

These are two small teeth which make their appear-

ance immediately in front of the upper molar teeth dur-

ing the period from the colt to the horsehood. It is sup-

posed by some horsemen that thej- injure the eye of the

horse. No author that I have ever read describes or de-

fines clearlj' that thej' do reallj^ injure the eye, or say

what cau.ses them to appear as they do. The only

remedy is the tooth forceps.

Dropsy of Muscles on the Chest.

Symptoms.—"XlV^ horse is dull, loses his appetite, swells

the belly and chest before the fore-legs, roots of the maneand tail dead.

Ctire.—Rowels in the breast and along the sides as far

back as the swelling goes ; then give some good physic.

After the physic operates give the cleansing powders

;

one tablespoonful twice a day on bran mash till the

swelling subsides. Keep the horse dry.

the bit, al.so from some unknown cause. Apply wash withswab. Tr. myrrh 4 ounces, Sol. alum-water 4 ounces.

Shoulder Joint Lameness.

Cause.—The most serious form of shoulder joint lame-

ness consists in a softening of the articular cartilage of

that joint.

SjDipioiiis.—When this is the character of the lame-

ness, it ma}' be easih' known by the manner in which the

animal progresses. He usually drags his toe, and throws

the leg outward at every step.

Treatment.—In this instance is very unsatisfactory,

blisters, setons and firing have been tried in hundreds of

cases, without any permanent advantage, for the simple

reason that the cartilage is apt to be destroyed, and the

underlying bone ulcerated. \

Tonics.

Where it is necessary to use tonics, gentian is one of

the best vegetables, especially in chronic debilitj'. It is

best united with camomile and ginger. Gentian 4 drachms,camomile 2 drachms, ginger i drachm

;give in balls.

Thrush.

The cause and symptoms of thrush are usually well

known yet I will describe them as follows : First, fever in

feet, bad stable and management, wet bedding, etc., etc.

Treatment.—Cleanse well the parts affected with castile

soap and water ; open the crevices and apph- chloride of

zinc thoroughly or crystallized carbolic acid ; repeat

every day until relieved ; cleanse well each time before

an application is made. Keep the horses feet on dry

floor. Dilute with soft water one ounce of either the

zinc or the acid, when it is fit for use.

A Salve for All Kinds of Sores, Cuts,Bruises, Etc.

White wax, 4 drachms. Lard, 18 drachms, Cn-stallized

carbolic acid, 3 drachms.

Melt the wax and lard together. Stir until cooled, and\hen add the carbolic acid previously liquified.

How to Prevent a Horse from Jumping Fences.

Buckle a strong surcingle around the body of the

horse, with a ring in the bottom of the surcingle underthe horse ; then buckle a soft strap around both fore-legs

above the knee close up to the .shoulder; then take ashort rope or strap and fasten one end of it into the strap

on off fore-leg and draw moderately tight ; this will allowthe horse to move one leg at a time, to lie down and get

up, but he cannot raise both legs at once nor put them,forward at the same time.

ABORTIO^ OR PREMAT-URE BIRTH.

1. Oare.—Great care should be

exercised by way of feeding andhandling a mare from the very

earliest months of pregnancy until

she foals. Avoid feeding any grain

that has become smutty, for it con-

tains more or less ergot, which in-

creases the chances of prematurebirth.

2. Hempseed.— If a mare haslost her foal regularly for two or

three years, about four months be-

fore foaling give her one-half pint

hempseed twice a day for one month.If a mare shows indications of

straining before her time, give her,

a handful of whole wheat three

times a day for a few days, but becareful that it is free from smut.

3. Caution.—If a mare has lost

her colt before the proper time of

birth, be careful and keep all other

mares that are with foal from smell-

ing or coming in contact with that

place, because it is liable to pro-

duce abortion upon them.

4. Trotting.—No mare after she

is with foal should be put upon the

track.

.5. Work.—Work is better than

idleness, however, for all mares that

are pregnant.

202 BLACK LEG & TONGUE; INFLAMMATION OF BRAIN, BLADDER &c.; HOLLOW HORN. [The Farmers'

HOW TO DOCTOR CATTLE.

BLACK LEG.

Cmise. — This disease is considered epidemic. Fat

cattle are generally the victims. It is a disease that is

not very general.

Symptoms.—Difficult breathing, moaning or groaning,

restlessness, generally lameness in one leg, moving with

great difficulty, fever and dr\'ness of the nose, and swell-

ing of the fore and hind quarters.

Treatment.—Saturate a blanket with cold water and

keep the animal well covered, but changing it occasion-

ally to keep the blanket cool. This reduces the fever.

Then give the following prescription

:

Take—Tartar emetic, 40 grains,

Tincture of digitalis, i ounce,Mix in cold water, i pint.

Repeat the above dose every two hours, omitting the

digitalis after the first two doses.

BLACK TONGUE.Take- -Powdered burnt alum, 4 ounces,

Chloride of lime, 2 ounces.

Corn meal, 2 quarts.

Mix all together, and with this powder swab the mouth

several times a day. No part within the mouth should

escape the application.

INFLAMMATION OF THE BRAIN.Take—Tartar emetic, 60 grains.

Spirits of nitre, 2 ounces.

Tincture veratrum veride, i ounce.

Mix and give every four hours until the inflammation

Is subdued; after that, give smaller doses and not so

often.

INFLAMMATION OF THE BLADDER.Give internally one of the following powders every

hour until relieved

:

Nitrate of potassa, i ounce.Tartrate of antimony, i drachm.Pulverized digitalis leaves, i drachm.

Mix, and divide into six powders.

BoUpd flaxseed draughts should be freely given.

INFLAMMATIOM OF THE BOWELS.<7a?«(?.—Overloading the stomach with musty food,

sudden chills after hard work, kicks and blows on the

belly, or protracted colic.

Symptoms.—The symptoms are similar to colic, only

milder in form. Shivering, labored breathing, lies downvery cautiously, will sometimes roll or plunge spasmod-

ically. Pressure on the abdomen gives great pain, while

in colic it relieves the pain.

Treatment.—Give eight ounces of linseed oil if the

bowels are constipated. Then give the following pre-

scription every three hours

:

I ounce of tincture of belladonna,

I ounce of essence of sassafras.

, Give one-half teaspoonful in half a pint of water. Takegood care and give the animal all the cold water it will

drink. The disease usually lasts from 5 to 14 days. Se-

vere cases usually prove fatal.

INFLAMMATION OF THE KIDNEYS.Treatment.—Give one pint of linseed oil and ten drops

of castor oil mixed together ; follow this with small doses

of salts once a day, for three or four days; give injections

of water, one-half a gallon to two ounces of tincture of

arnica. Mustard applications to the loins are also very

useful.

Take-

FOR HOLLOW HORN.Pulverized nitre, 2 ounces.Ground ginger, 4 ounces.

Black antimony, 2 ounces.

Flowers of sulphur, 2 ounces.

Pour two or three tablespoonfuls of turpentine in the

hollow back of the horns, and rub the horns well with

.!f^^ifeMi<. n

SELF-SUCKING COW.Simple Ways of Preventing the Habit.

From the numerous devices given for keeping cows

from sucking tliemselves v^^e have selected the two

shown in the illustration as among the most successful

and easily made and tried. The one in the upper part,

A, is made as follows : A strap is fastened around the

body of the cow and a halter put on her head. A stick

is attached to the halter, and reaching between the front

legs is fastened to the strap around the body. This pre-

vents getting her head around.

The device shown in the lower part, B, is simply a

necklace made from old fork or broom handles strung on

a strap and buckled around the neck. Fit it to the cow

and make the sticks long enough to keep her from

putting her head on the side, but be sure they are not

long enough to chafe the shoulders or throat when the

head is not turned.

FOR LAMENESS, Etc.

Apply the liniment as prescribed under " Stifle-Joinl

Lameness" in Horse department.

A SIMPLE CONTRIVANCE FOR LIFTING A BEEF.

Use the space in a double corn crib or driveway ia 3barn. To a crosspiece, represented at A in the illustra-

tion, placed over this driveway, adjust a ^ inch rope, B,

as for a swing. After placing the beef on the gamble, D,

put the rope swing under it between the legs, lay a stout

stick on the middle of the gamble and under the rope,

then turn the stick : the rope winds around the gamble.

Two men can easily lift a beef in this way without

trouble.

N. B.—The stick E is short and can be turned eas^ily

between the legs of the beef. Try it.

2o6 DISEASES OF HOGS AND THEIR REMEDIES. ^The Farmers'

HOW TO DOCTOR HOGS.•^"iTTf,

In the treatment of the hog we cannot enter into de-

tails. In sickness he is not a very good patient, and

about all that can be done, is to administer a little medi-

cine in his food.

HOW TO CATCH A HOG.Swine are verj' difficult animals to handle or master.

The following method of getting hold of them has been

highly recommended

:

RuLK.—Fasten a double cord to the end of a stick,

and beneath the stick let there be a running noose in the

cord ; tie a piece of bread to the cord, and present it to

the animal ; and when he opens his mouth to seize the

bread, catch the upper jaw in the noo.se, and draw it

tight, and the pig is fast.

Another method is, to catch one foot in a runningnoose. This can be applied in various wa3-s ; either by

suspending it or dropping it on the ground and allowing

the hog to step within it, and then jerking it up and catch-

ing the leg. Another method is, to take a pole andfasten a long, narrow hook, with a large opening, on the

end of it. This can be readily hooked around the hind

leg, and it will hold the strongest animal.

THE DREADFUL DISEASE, TRICHINASPIRALIS.

A Piece of Diseassd Meat Greatly Magnified.

Trichina are microscopic worms which infest the

muscles, intestines, etc. The mature worms live in' the

intestines of the animal, and the immature, or minute

worms, live in the muscles. This is one of the most se-

rious diseases that attacks the American hog.

Symptoms.—After eating the iiesh of animals affected

with trichina it takes from 8 to 15 da5-s to manifest the

symptoms. They are severe muscular pains, stiffness of

the limbs, and sometimes considerable swelling on the

skin ; in man the disease is often taken for rheumatism

or typhoid fever, and produces loss of appetite, indisposi-

tion to move, pain and stiffness.

Treatment.—Give a strong dose of physic. Thengive the following prescription to diseased animals

:

2 drachms of asafoetida,

4 drachms of azedarach.

Mix, and give the same once a daj' in 8 doses.

Glycerine given internally, is also an excellent remedyfor trichina.

Caution.—Never eat pork, unless it is well and

thoroughly cooked.

HOG CHOLERA, AND HOW TO TREAT IT.

In the treatment of hog cholera very little can be done.

The diseased animals are always a poison to the healthy

ones, and complete separation should be effected at once.

There are a thousand different remedies advertised, ,but

none of them are effectual. The government has been

investigating the subject many years and as yet has

found no .specific. The following may be done and will

add as much as anything to the safety of a herd of swine

:

1. Removal of still healthy animals to inclosed unin-

fected ground or pens as far as possible from infected lo-

calities.

2. Destruction of all diseased animals.

3. Careful burial or burning of the carcasses.

4. Repeated thorough disinfec^:on of the infected

premises.

5. Great cleanliness, both as to surroundings and as

regards the food, to prevent it becoming infected.

6. Place from one-half to one pound of lime into a

gallon of water and gi\-e once a day. This is an excel-

lent disinfectant.

Page 217: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

(VlANUAL.J DISEASES OF HOGS AND THEIR REMEDIES. 207

7. In view of the fact that verj- few of the diseased

animals ever recover, and there is little in those which do

recover, there is but little use to resort to medical treat-

ment, in the endeavor to cure diseased animals.

8. The better way is to kill the diseased animals and

bum them, and thus destroy them at once.

THE BEST REMEDY KNOW^N FOR HOGCHOLERA.

If the disease prevails in the communitj% it is very

difficult to avoid its attack.

Symptoms. —Loss of energy- and appetite, lying down bj-

himself, moving slowl)", evacuations of a dark color, bad

odor, feet and" legs cold ; after death the abdomen be-

comes of a dark purple color.

Treatment.—\n excellent preventive is the following

:

Burn corncobs into charcoal and feed it freely. Mix well

together

:

6 pounds of powdered sulphur,

I pound of animal charcoal,

6 ounces of sulphate of iron,

I pound of pulverized cinchona.

Mix about a tablespoonful for each animal in a few

potato peelings or cornmeal three times a da\-. This

treatment will generally preserve a herd of swine from

taking the cholera, even if the disease is in the immedi-

ate vicinity.

The following remedy for hog cholera has been exten-

sively used

:

2 pounds sulphur, }i pound saltpetre,

2 pounds madder, 2 ounces arsenic,

y, pound black antimon}', 2 pounds copperas.

Pulverize and mix. For hogs that are sick, mix from

2 to 4 tablespoonfuls in each pail of swill. As a prevent-

ive, I teaspoonful in a pail of .swill will keep the disease

at bay.

Do not allow hogs, sick or ^vell, to run where there is

stagnant water.

After the Animals have been Attacked,

give the following prescription :

Take—Ground ginger, 4 ounces.

Black antimony, 2 ounces.

Flour of sulphur, 2 ounces,

Pulverized nitre, 2 ounces.

Sulphate of iron, 4 ounces.

Mix, and give to a large hog one full teaspoonful three

times a day ; to a hog under 150 pounds a level teaspoon-

ful, and to smaller ones according to size.

2oS HOW TO KELP POULTRY. The Fakmers

PRACTICAL RULES FOR KEEPING POULTRY.

DARK I K MIMAS

1. A little glycerine applied occasionally to the combs

and wattles, will prevent injury by frosting.

2. A great source of contagion is the drinking troughs.

Remember this if roup should make its appearance in

your poultry house.

3. In place of " Tonics " drop a nail into the drinking

trough and allow it to remain there. It will supply all

the " tincture of iron " required.

4. If you feed whole corn, place it in the oven and

parch it occasionally and feed smoking hot. The fowl--

appreciate it in the cold, frosty weather.

5. A little linseed or oil meal given once a week in the

soft feed will promote laying. This will not come under

the heading of " Dosing the fowls with medicine."

6. Do not throw your table scraps into the swill barrel.

Give them to the chickens.

7. One of the most important points in the kee^^jing of

ducks is to give them clean, dry quarters at night. Theyare very prone to leg weakness and cold, damp quarters.

8. Feed your fowls just what they will eat up clean.

Fat hens or pullets are poor layers, and the latter is just

what you don't want in seasons when eggs are 28 cents

or more per dozen.

9. Fowls over three years old are not, as a rule, good

breeders. The males are unable to properly fertilize

eggs for hatching, while the stock is usually weak. Fouryears is generally considered a "ripe old age" for a fowl.

ID. Each hen, if properly kept, will lay from 200 to 250

eggs a year.

1 1

.

Liver and intestines are an excellent food to makebens lay.

12. Keep an abundant supply of lime where the hens

can easily get at it if you desire your hens to lay well.

13. Always clean the nest well and put in fresh straw

before the hen begins to sit.

14. It is best in breeding to cross or mix the breeds

more or less every year. It improves the flesh and gen-

eral health of the fowls.

15. Pullets are better layers than old hens. Keepyour stock young by disposing annually of the old broods.

16. Keep at least one rooster for everj^ eight hens if

you desire vigorous young chickens.

17. It is a good plan to change roosters every year.

18. Roosters are best at two years of age.

PARTRIDGE COCHINS.

DISEASES AND THEIR TREATMENTS.In North America the climate is very good for all

kinds of poultry. There are very few diseases but what

readily 3deld to judicious treatment.

Most of the diseases to which fowls are subject, are the

result of neglect, exposure, or bad diet.

HOW TO CURE THE CHICKEN CHOLERA,Symptoms.—The symptoms of chicken cholera are

greenish droppings, prostration, and intense thirst. It

should not be mi.staken for indigestion. Cholera kills

quickly, and this is a sure indication.

Remedy.—The best remedy is to add a teaspoonful of

carbolic acid to a quart of water and give no other water

to drink. The remedy is not a sure cure, but is one of

the best. When cholera puts in an appearance, every-

thing on the place should be thoroughly cleaned and dis-

infected, the remedy mentioned above being also an ex-

cellent disinfectant.

Another Good Receipt.

'4 pound madder,

^ pound sulphur,

2 ounces antimony,2 ounces saltpetre.

yl pound cayenne pepper.

Mix a tablespoonful in feed for 30 chickens.

Page 219: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

MAJ^'JAL.] HOW TO KEEP POULTRY. 209

ASTHMA.Symptoms.—The fowls labor for breath, opening the

beak often and for quite a time, and sometimes drops of

blood appearing on the beak.

Treatmenl.— Take the disease in hand as soon as dis-

covered, keep the fowl warm, and give equal parts of

sulphur and fresh butter (or fresh lard) thoroughly mixed.

FEVER.Symptoms.—Restlessness, refusing to eat, drooping

wings and excessive heat.

Treatment.—Mix a little castor oil with burnt butter

and give a teaspoonful three times a day.

LOSS OF FEATHERS.This disease, common to confined fowls, should not

be confused with the natural process of moulting. In the

diseased state no new feathers come to replace the old.

Treatment.—Keep warm, and feed hemp seed and corn.

Add brown sugar to the water.

GAPES.The Gapes is a very common ailment of poultrj- and

domestic birds. More common among the young than

the old.

Cause.—The disease is caused by the presence of little

red worms in the wind-pipe, about the size of a small

cambric needle.

Symptoms.—Gaping for breath with beak wide open,

yellow beak, tongue drj' and feathers ruffled on the head

and neck.

Treatment.—Give a pill each morning made of equal

parts of scraped garlic and horse radish, with as muchcayenne pepper as will outweigh a grain of wheat, mix

with fresh butter.

If a good many are affected, put from 5 to 10 drops of

turpentine to a pint of meal.

Treatment must be given in the early stages of the

disease, or all remedies will fail.

HOW TO DESRTOY AND KEEP RID OFHEN'S LICE.

All fowls are more or less infested with lice. Fowlsare sometimes so covered that the natural color of the

feathers cannot be distinguished. These loathsome

vermin will not only cover the fowls, but will multiply

and spread over the entire hen-house, barn, woodshed, or

any other place, frequented by the poultry.

Poultrj' cannot be fattened when covered with lice.

Remedy.— i. Whitewash the hen-hou.se frequently,

whitewash all the roosting poles, etc., or run them slowly

through a fire of old .straw or hay.

2. Close the hen-house up tightly and burn sulphur in

it. The sulphur fumes will penetrate every crevice anddestroy the vermin.

3. Flower of sulphur may be mixed with Indian meal

and water and be fed, in proportion of i pound of sulphur

to I peck of corn meal.

4. Applying grease of any kind by rubbing it amongthe feathers is certain death to the vermin.

Chicken Mites and Their Extermination.

The above illustration shows the chicken mite greatly

enlarged. These are little insects or parasites ; the older

ones of which are of a darkish gray and the younger ones

are a clear whitish color, and are about the size of a pin's

head.

These parasites secrete themselves between the cracks

and corners of the perches during the day-time, but sally

forth to draw the blood of their victims during the night

They accumulate by the thousands and are very de-

structive to good poultry^

Close the hen-house or whatever place they are found

in and take a few pieces of brimstone and heat a piece of

iron, like a nut or small bolt, red hot and place it into the

basin containing the brimstone, and let it consume the

brimstone. This smoke will penetrate every crevice in

2IO HOW TO PICKLE EGGS. [The Farmers'

the hen-house, and will prove after a few trials verj'

eflfectual. Then wash the roost or crevices where thej-

are found with kerosene oil, after which put on a good

coat of tar ; it is also excellent for the roost-poles.

FOR SCALY LEGS.

Apply a little kerosene oil once a week. Be careful

not to get on too much, or it will blister and injure.

HOW TO PICKLE EGGS.

1. A good, cool place is necessary. The temperature

must be kept above the freezing point.

2. Select a good kerosene barrel and take out the head

and set fire to the inside and burn it until slightly

charred, then smother out the fire by turning it bottom

side up. Scrape off charred parts and soak in lime-

water, until the smell of kerosene is entirely removed.

3. To Make the Pickle.—Take one bushel of best fresh

lime, one peck of rock-salt, and 60 gallons of clean water,

(use similar proportions for smaller quantities.) Slake

the lime as for making whitewash, add the rest of the

water, and then the salt. Stir well two or three times

the first day, and then let it stand until well settled and

cold.

4. Now dip off the clear fluid careful!}' and put it into

the barrel until about one-half full.

5. Now put in the eggs without breaking. When you

have about a foot of eggs on the bottom of the barrel

pour in some of the "milky" pickle made by stirring up

the lime and water left. It is these light, fine particles

of lime settling on the eggs and filling the pores that pre-

ser\'e the eggs.

6. Care should be taken not to put in too much or too

little of the "milky" pickle, pour in enough to cover the

eggs nicely when settled. If not enough lime the white

of the egg will get watery, if too much it will stick on the

outside like plaster, and be difiicult to remove.

7. A faucet should be fitted into the barrel about six

inches from the bottom, so that the pickle can be drawn

off when necessary.

8. A common method for small quantities ; Take a

box or half barrel and first put in a layer of common salt,

and then a layer of eggs, and so on, until the desired

quantity is packed.

WEATHER SIGNALS.

The above flags indicate the different kinds of weather

that may be expected whenever either one of the above

colors is displayed.

A white flag indicates fair weather ; a blue flag rain or

snow ; a white and blue flag, colors arranged horizontal!)',

white above and blue below, indicate rain ; a triangular

black flag, which if hoisted above either of the foregoini;

symbols, indicates higher temperature, and if below,

lower temperature ; and lastly the white flag with a black

square in the center to indicate cold waves. The last

named flag is also used as a frost symbol.

In many States the farmers and growers are warned of

dangerous frosts, rains, etc., and consequently this sys-

tem of signals is annually worth millions of dollars to

the American people.

HOW TO FORETELL THE WEATHER.

The Different Kinds of Clouds and WeatherIndications.

1. Clouds. Clouds are nothing but fog, and differ

only in elevation above the earth. A fog resting on the

top of a mountain is called a cloud, and a cloud resting

on the surface of the earth is called a fog.

2. Rain. Rain is only produced by accumulated moist-

ure in the atmosphere, and this accumulation being seen

in the form of clouds, hence all rain appears in the form

of clouds. It is necessary then to understand the differ-

ent forms of clouds and know their relation to each

other.

3. Cirrus. The Cirrus cloud, sometimes called " cats-

tail," as the appearance and form are like wool}- hair, a

crest of feathers, or a slender net work. They are the

28

highest of all the clouds. When they are very thin, they

indicate fair weather ; when very abundant and conspic-

uous, thej' indicate high winds or rain.

Names of the Clouds.

No. I. Cirrus. No. 4. Nimbus.No. 2. CiRRO Cumulus. No. 5. Stratus.No. fv Cumulus.

4. Cumulus. This cloud is in the form of a bale of cot-

ton, and occurs in the lower regions of the atmosphere.

In fair weather the Cumulus forms a few hours after

sunrise, goes on increasing until the hottest part of the

day, and then disappears at sunset. It generally indicates

fair weather.

5. CiRRO-CuMULUS. These clouds have a sort of fleecy

appearance, and are sometimes called wooly clouds.

They indicate warm and dry weather.

6. Stratus. This cloud consists of horizontal bands

near the surface of the earth. It generally appears late

in the evening or at night, forming at sunset and disap-

pearing at sunrise. This Stratus is sometimes broken up

into small parts, and is sometimes called " Mackeral Sky,"

Page 222: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

WEATHER INDICATIONS, [The Farmers

and scientifically known as Cirro-Stratus. They indicate

in that condition wind and rain.

7. Nimbus or Rain Cloud. The Cumulus Clouds

often change into Nimbus, which are sometimes called

Thunder Heads, and appear sometimes in great magnifi-

cence, and are easily known when seen. Thunder and

lightning and wind and storms follow in their pathway.

8. Sunset Colors. A darkish gray sunset, with the

clouds tinged with a green or a yellowish green, indicates

rain. A red sunrise generally indicates rain, but a bright

red sunset on the contrary is an indication of fair

weather.

SUN DOGS AND CORONA.

9. Halo or Sun Dogs. These are large circles

around the sun or moon, having imitation suns and

moons in the circle. A halo or sun dog appearing in fine

weather indicates storm.

ID. Corona. These are small colored circles, particu-

larly seen around the sun or moon. If the circles are

small, they indicate rain ; but if they grow larger, it indi-

cates fair weather.

11. Rainbows. Rainbows in the morning are re-

garded as a sign of rain ; but if a rainbow appears in the

evening, the following day is generally fair.

12. Sky. a deep blue color of the sky indicates fair

weather, but if this blue appearance of the sky grows

lighter during the day it indicates an approaching storm.

13. Fogs. Fogs are generally an indication of fair

weather.

Stars. If the stars are very thick and numerous it i£

a good sign of rain or storm, but if the stars are not very

numerous in appearance and the sky is clear it indicates

fair weather.

FARMERS' SHORT RULES OF ARITHMETIC.

FARMERS^ SHORT RULES OF ARITHMETIC.217

1. How to Find the Number of Tons of Hay in

a Mow.—Multiply the length of the mow iu feet, by the

width in feet, and that by the height in feet, and divide

the result by 400 if the hay is well settled (or, b}^ 500 for

new hay), and you have the number of tons in the mow.

2. How to Find the Number of Tons of Hay in

a Stack.—Let the hay settle 30 days. Then measure

over the stack with a tape line from ground to ground in

feet, and then find the width of the stack in feet and add

the two results together, and divide the sum by 4, then

multiply this result by itself, and multiply that numberby the length of the stack in feet, and divide the product

by 400 (or, for greater accuracy, by 420), and 3'ou will

have the number of tpns in the stack. If it is a round

stack, simply multiply the distance around the stack in

the largest place by one-third of the height, and point off

the two right hand figures, and you have the number of

tons in the stack.

3. How to Find the Cost of a Load of Hay.

Multiply the weight by one-half tlie price per ton, point

off the three right hand figures, and the figures at the left

will be the amount in dollars and cents that the load

comes to.

4. How to Measure Ear Corn in a Crib.—Mul-

tiply the length iu feet by the height iu feet, and that

again by the width in feet, and multiply the result by 4,

(or, for good, sound corn well settled, by 5), and cut ofi"

the right hand figure, and you have the contents in bush-

els of shelled corn. When the crib is flared at the side,

find the average width by adding together the top and

bottom widths, and dividing by 2.

5. How to Find the Number of Bushels ofGrain in a Box or Bin.—Multiply the length in feet

by the height in feet, and that again by the breadth in

feet, and then again by 8, and cut off the right handrigure. The result will be the number of bushels.

C. How to Find the Number of Heaped Bushelsof Ear Corn, Apples or Potatoes in a Crib orBin.—Multiply the length in feet by the breadth in feet,

and that again by the height in feet, and multiply the re-

sult by 6, cut off the right hand figure, and you have the

number of heaped bushels.

7. How to Find the Contents of a WagonBox.—Multiply the depth of the wagon box in inches

by 2, and you have the number of bushels. A commonwagon box is a little more than ten feet long and three

feet wide, and will hold about two bushels for every inch

in depth. If the wagon box is 1 1 feet long, multiply the

depth in inches by 2, and add one-tenth of the numberof bushels to itself.

8. How to Find the Weight of Cattle by Meas-urement.—Multiply the distance around the animaf

(back of the fore-shoulder) in feet by itself, and theii

multiply that result by 17.5 and you have the weight of

the animal very near. For more accurate results in.stead

of multiplying by 17.5, multiply by five times the length

of the animal in feet (measuring from the fore-part of

the shoulder blade to the bone at the tail, in a vertical

line with the buttocks), and divide this product by 1.5

for average cattle, (very fat by 1.425; very lean by

1.575) aid you have the dressed weight of the animal.

9. How to Find the Price per Hundred, WhenSold by the Ton.—Multiply the price in dollars per

ton by 5, and the result will be the price in cents per

hundred.

10. How to Find the Contents of Tanks andCisterns.—If the cistern or tank is square, multiply the

height, width and depth in feet together, ?,nd divide the

product by 4, and the result will equal the number of

barrels the cistern will hold. If the cistern or tank is

Page 228: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

2l8 FARMERS' SHORT RULES OF ARITHMETIC. [The Farmers'

round, multiply the diameter in feet by itself, and multi-

ply that by the depth in feet, and divide the product by

5, and you will have the number of barrels the cistern or

tank will hold.

* 11. How to Find the Contents of Barrels andCasks.—Add together the diameters at the bung and

head in inches, and divide the sum by 2, and the result

will be the average diameter. Now multiply this result

by itself and multiply the product by the length of the

barrel or cask, in inches. Multiply this result again by

34, and cut off the four right hand figures, and you will

have the number of gallons.

12 Gross and Net Weight of Hogs.—It is as-

sumed that the gross weight of hogs, diminished \ or 20

per cent, of itself gives the net weight, and the net

weight increased by % or 25 per cent, of itself equals

the gross weight. Thus: If the gross weight of a load

of hogs is 1800 pounds, the net weight would be J or 360

less, or 1440 pounds. If the net weight is 1440 pounds,

the gross weight will be % or 360 pounds more, or 1800

pounds.

13. How to Find the Number of Common Brick

in a Wall.—Multiply the length of the wall in feet by

the height in feet, and that by its thickness in feet, and

then multiply that result by 16, and the product will be

the number of bricks in the wall.

14. How to Find the Number of Yards of Car-

pet to Cover a Floor.—Multiply the length of the

room in feet by the width in feet and divide the result by

9, and you have the number of yards of carpet required,

if the carpet is one yard wide. If the carpet is only ^of a yard wide proceed as above, and then multiply by 4and divide by 3.

15. An Easy Way to Multiply by 11.—To mul-

tiply any two figures by 11, add the two figures together

and place their sum between the two figures of that

number. If the sum of the two figures exceeds 9, the

left hand figure must be increased by i.

16. How to Find the Number of Acres in aField.—If the field is rectangular, multipl)' the length

in rods by the breadth, and divide by 160. If the piece

is triangular, multiply the length in rods by the breadth

and divide by 2. Then divide by 160, and the result will

be the number of acres in the field.

1. Example: How many acres in a piece of land 80

rods long and 20 rods wide? 80X20 = 1600, 1600 -f

160 ^ ID acres.

2. Example: How many acres in a triangular field 80

rods long and 40 rods wide? 80X40-^-2 = 1600 sq.

rods. 1600 -r- 160 ^ 10 acres.

17. How to Measure Wood.—Multiply the length,

breadth and height in feet together, and divide by 128.

The result will be the number of cords.

Example : How many cords in a pile of wood 20 feet

long, 4 feet wide, and 8 feet high? 20 X 4 X 8 = 640.

640 -r 128 = 5 cords.

18. How to Measure Boards.—Find the width of

the boards in inches, and add together, and the sum ob-

tained will be equal to the number of feet in the pile if

the boards are 12 feet long. If the boards are 14 feet

long add }i of itself if 16 feet long add yi of itself, and

you will have the number of feet in the pile.

Example: How many feet of lumber in 12 boards, 10

inches wide, and 14 feet long? 12 x 10= 120; }i of

120 = 20; 20 + 120 = 140, the number of feet.

19. How to Measure Scantlings, Joists, Planks,

Etc.—Multiply the width in inches by the thickness in

inches, and multiply the result by the length in feet and

divide by 12, and you will have the number of square

feet.

Example : How many feet of lumber in a scantling 4

inches wide, 2 inches thick, and 18 feet long? 4 x 2X18 = 144. 144 -f 12 = 12 feet of lumber.

20. How to Find the Number of Shingles Re-

quired for a Roof.— Multiply the length of the roof by

twice the length of one rafter, and multiply the result by

8 if the shingles are to be exposed 4 >^, or, by 7 if the

shingles are to be exposed 5 inches to the weather, and

you will have the number of shingles required.

Example : How many shingles will it take to cover a

roof 30 feet long, and the rafters 12 feet long; shingles

to be exposed 4>^ to the weather? 30 X 12 X 2 = 720.

720 X 8 = 5760 .shingles required for the roof.

My^NUAL.) INTEREST. 219

THE LAW OF INTEREST AND USURY.

HON. WILLIAM M. EVARTS, OF NEW YORK.

The man who received $250,000 for saying " Yes."

1. Legal Interest.—The rate prescribed by law is

the legal rate ; and any rate in excess of that is termed

usury. The rate of interest, if not regulated by law,

would depend mainly upon two circumstances. These

are, first, the demand for money compared with the sup-

ply accessible ; and, second, the risk that a lender would

run of not receiving it back as agreed. With plenty of

money and little demand for it, and also very little risk

of losing to be incurred, the rate would be low.

2. In Different States.—If a contract is made in one

State to be performed in another, the laws of the latter

State determine the rate of interest.

3. If Nothing is Stated.—If nothing is stated, a

debt is supi^osed to be payable where it was contracted

;

and the rate of interest is controlled by the laws of that

place.

4. Book Accounts.—In ordinary book accounts, in-

terest is not allowed unless specially agreed, or when a

term of credit is named. In this latter case interest maybe charged after the term expires. When an account

has been adjusted, the balance bears interest from date

of liquidation.

5. Rent Past Due.—Interest is allowed by law on

rent past due from the time it was due.

6. Legal Claims.—All good, legal claims bear inter-

est from the time they become due ; hence all insurance

policies, past due, draw interest from their due date.

7. Collecting Money for Another.—One who col-

lects money for another, which he should have accounted

for at once, can be made to pay interest from date of

collection.

8. Fraud.—When one obtains money from anothei

by fraud, and is compelled to return it, he is liable, also,

for interest on it from the time he obtained it.

9. Partial Payments.—In computing interest on

debts, when partial payments have been made, the pay-

ments are first applied to reduce the interest ; but if the

pa3mient does not equal the interest due, interest is cal-

culated on the debt until such time as the sum of the

payments equals or exceeds the interest. The interest is

then added to the principal, the sum of the payments de-

ducted, and the balance forms a new principal.

10. The General Rule.—The general rule of law is

that, when money which is certainly due one person is

withheld from him by another, the latter is bound to payinterest for such detention.

RAPID SIX PER CENT. METHOD.HOW TO FIND THE INTEREST AT SIX PER CENT. FOR MONTHS.

Multiply the principal by one-half the number of months, and point off two figures from the right.

Example: What is the interest on $150, for 6 months?Solution : $150 X 3 (half the number of months) ^ $4.50.

HOW TO FIND THE INTEREST FOR MONTHS AND DAYS AT SIX PER CENT.

Multiply the principal by the number of days ; di\'ide the product by 6, and point off three figures from

the right.

Example: What is the interest on $250 for 4 months and 18 days'?

Solution: 4 months equal 120 days. 1204-18 = 138. 138X250=34.50. 34.500 -i- 6 = $5.75.

TO FIND THE INTEREST AT ANY OTHER RATE THAN SIX PER CENT.

First find the interest at 6 per cent. ; then multiplv the interest by the required rate and divide by 6, and the

result will be the interest required. Thus, in the above example the interest is $5.75 at 6 per cent. To find the

interest at 7 per cent, the operation will be as fellows: $575 X 7 = 40-25- 40-25-7-6 = $6.70 +

Page 230: (1898) The Farmers' Manual & Complete Cotton Book

LIGHTNING METHODS FOR CALCULATING INTEREST. [The Farmers

The Celebrated Lightning Methods for Calculating Interest.

WHERE THE TIME IS FOR DAYS ONLY.Rule:—To find the interest on any given sum for any number of days, multiply the principal by the number

of days, and divide as follows

:

At 5 per cent., divide by 72. At 9 per cent., divide by 40.

At 6 per cent., divide by 60. At 10 per cent., divide by 36.

At 7 per cent., divide by 52. At 12 per cent., divide by 30.

At 8 per cent., divide by 45.

Example:—What is the interest on $1000.00 for 6 days at 6 per cent.?

Solution:— 1000 x 6-7-60= $1.00.

WHEN THE TIME CONSISTS OF YEARS, MONTHS AND DAYS.

1. Rule.—Reduce years to months, adding the number of months, then place one-third of the number of

days to the right of the months, with a decimal point between.

2. Then remove the decimal point two places to the left in the principal, and divide by 2, and the resiJlt will

equal the interest for one month at 6 per cent.

3. Multiply the interest for one month by the number of months, and the product is the interest at 6 pel

cent, for the given time.

Then add }i of itself for 7 per cent." " yi of itself for 8 per cent." " )^ of itself for 9 per cent." " fi of itself for 10 per cent.

Example:—Find the intere.st on $300, at 8 per cent.

Solution:—$3.004- 2 ^$1.50 interest for i month.

$1.50 X I5.5=$23.25 interest at 6 per cent.

N. B.—The $7.75 is one-third of $23.25.

Subtract ji of itself for 5 per cent.

" " j4 of itself for 4 per cent.

for I year, 3 months and 15 days.

I year, 3 months and 15 days= 15.5 months.

23-25-l-7-75^$3i-00, interest at 8 per cent.

HOW TO USE THE INTEREST TABLES.1. The interest on any sum of money, and for any length of time may be obtained, by adding to or doubling

any certain sum, or length of time in the tables, viz: If the interest on a certain sum of money at 8 per cent, for

a given time should be $20.00, one-half of $20.00 or $10.00 would equal the interest at 4 per cent., etc.

2. If the interest at 6 per cent, should amount to $4.33, on a certain sum of money for a given time, twice

that amount or $8.66 would equal the intere.st at 12 per cent., etc.

3. The tables are computed on the principle of 360 days in a year, the rule adopted by bankers and merchants;hroughout the entire country.

4. When the fraction of interest is a half a cent or more, a whole cent is taken, but when less than a half

cent, nothing is charged.

Example:—To find the interest on $195.00 for one year, five months, and 23 days, at 6 per cent, according

to table, proceed as follows:

PICKING COTTON.

HOW TO USE THE COTTON SELLERS' TABLE.The price per pound and per hundred weight is always at the top of the page. For example, 3 1-16

cents or 3.06^ means 3 1-16 cents a pound or $3.06^4^ a hundred pounds; 3 1-20 cents or $3.05 means

3 1-20 cents a poimd, or $3.05 a hundred pounds.

The first column, and every succeeding column in black faced type, represents the number of pounds;

the second column the amount in dollars and cents at the price given at the top of each section of page.

Example:—What will 449 pounds of cotton bring at 3 1-16 cents per pound?

Solution:—Find the 449 in the column of pounds under the price of 3 1-16 cents and opposite in the

next column you will find $13.75, the answer.

In the tables of this book calculations are made in i6ths and 20ths. It might be convenient at times

to know the answer in 32ds and 4oths. In table No. i below we give the value of any bale of cotton at
