‘method: the animal being two or three weeks old,

the embryon horns, just beginning to grow, may be pees| in the form of a gristly substance, softer than horn, and more compact than the skin: dissect these out, on each side, without cutting to the bone: sear up with an iron, just hot enough to stop the blood,

and if the calf goes abroad, cover with a plaister of pitch.

That the vigour of the bull, and the ram, lasts but a few years, is owing to the early free use made of it, which is, doubtless, most advantageous. A cow, constantly well-wintered, would milk even to her sixteenth years and an ox would probably la- bour to nearly that period; granting them of great

excellence in their way, it would be, no doubt, pro-

fitable to keep them on, as instances have not been wanted, of very fat Ae rh-flavoured beef at four- teen years old.

Great caution should be used, that cattle do not become hoven by gorging themselves, suddenly, with clover, or other succulent food; when it has ‘ happened, the remedies are well-known, amongst

Fr tten, the flexible tube, sold by M‘Dougale, in London; this may be intro- duced into the ae. Where the QUARTER
