Charcoal Is appreciated by the Hock. Provide it for them. Rape makes fine hoi ; feed. They do not bloat 011 it as sheep do. Bow a little more clover and divide it up into hog pastures. It will pay big. It is a good scheme to use kerosene liberally about the interior of the place the entire year. A dairy cow shut up In a dark stable and fed on highly concentrated food quickly burns out. Better to plant a little In the gar den and plant well than to half plant a great quantity of stuff. The community where the good dairy cow is in the majority is the commu nity which is marked by contentment and prosperity. The feeding out of the odds and ends of fodder before the cold and wet fail weather ruins it is important and means the saving of a snug sum every year. Feed the cow -all the hay or other roughness she will eat , even if she is running on good pasture. Her appetite tells her better what she needs than you can tell. There are about twenty-five kinds of nut-bearing trees in the United States. The consumption of nuts is increasing rapidly , the demand evidently growing much faster than the home supply is Increased. Some genius of fiVures estimates that the corn crop of Missouri . for 11)07 ) would fill 8,000,000 farm wagons , which , If hitched close together * would make a chain that would reach around the world. All good sheep feeders have good racks and feed boxes or troughs. A flock may live if fed on ground , but nothing less than keen hunger will prompt so delicate an animal to take Its feed from the wet and tilth of a yard. The first butterfly farm was estab lished about ten years ago by Will him Watkins , a famous English entomol ogist , at Eastbourne , England. There ore now many similar farms in France nnd other countries. The object of these farms is to rear silk worms. The Ilolsteiu breeders in their re cent national meeting appointed a committee to secure a federal law for the inspection of cattle for tubercu losis and to do away with inspection by the states. There is no question that such a law would prove advan tageous. Unless the stock is fed an amount over and above that which is needed for body maintenance there will be no gain. A thousand-pound steer has been found by experiment to require daily 15 pounds of timothy hay , 31i pounds of clover hay and seven pounds of corn meal just to keep on an even keel. More must be fed if there is to be any gain. If a neighbor asks us to do an er rand or two while in town why be grumpy ? We may want to ask a favor ourselves next day or next week. And , by the way , some men have a knack of doing a troublesome act for a neighbor In such a manner as to create the im pression that it is the one thing that gives him great pleasure. That is a fine gift and we cannot cultivate It too much. It seems at the present time that the graduates of the state agricultur al schools of the country are finding no trouble in getting located. The young man who knows the science of good farming and how to apply it commands $75 to $100 a month , with his board and lodging , and lives eas ily , comfortably and wholesomely. The farmer , who can do so , should give his sons the education that will thus lift them to the heights of their occu pation. Young men trained so that they can command such financial re turns for their services to others can use their scientific training to still greater profit for themselves. The sci entific farmer , who Is worth $100 or $100 a month to another man , Is worth $200 to $300 to himself If he apply science to his own soil. Medicinal Properties ol Vegetables have medicinal properties. Tomatoes act on the liver , spinach on the kidneys , so does asparagus ; all kinds of greens purify the blood. Let tuce and cucumbers cool the system , and celery is excellent for both rheu matism and the nerves. A soup made with onions is regarded by the French ns a restorative In cases of debility and weakness of the digestive organs. Leeks nnd garlic promote digestion , and it is said that beet root gives energy and cheerfulness. Fruit and Suarar Cor Ilor.nes. Grain is not the only food on which the horse thrives. In Egypt , the Khe dive's best mares are fed largely on cur rants , and tirsr ! > animals are noted ? cr tiicir cnduraiu-e and speed. Figs , during the Jig harvest , form the food of the horses of Smryna ; they turn to it from oatB or hay. The green tops of the sugar cane are fed to tiie horses of the West Indies , and for long weeks , in many parts of Canada , windfall apples form the horse's food. In Tasmania peaches and in Arabia dates take the place of the usual hay and oats , corn and bran. Practical Pigeon Hints. Pigeons must have grit. Don't for get that There should be one bath pan for every twelve pair of birds. Hem ] ) seed is one of the best stimu lants known for pigeons. Thomas Wright says a pigeon's prime of life Is from 5 to 9 years of age. Green food Is a luxury , but not a necessity. It is advised not to feed let tuce to pigeons. Never catch a bird In the daytime un less absolutely necessary. This alone will make tame birds wild. Never feed one kind of grain exclu sively. It is not good for the health of' ' pigeons and greatly lessens the number of young birds raised. It is said by experienced squab grow ers that in ninety-nine times out of 100 if two birds are hatched , the first hatched wil be a male. The homer is somewhat larger than the Antwerp , longer faced , and in a. _ greater variety of colors , and In many ways superior as a squab breeder. ir The change from whole to skim milk in feeding the calf should be made by withholding a small amount of milk the first day , more the second , and so on. The amount withheld is thus grad ually increased from day to day. AJI amount of skim milk must be artdet'l , at least equal in quantity of new milk u-ithlu'ld , until the change hns been completed. Some substances should be added as soon as the change begins that will supply an equivalent to the fat con tained in the new milk withheld. No substance has been found superior for such use to Iinsi'c-1 meal , that is , ground ilaxseed. Oil meal will answer the sam a purpose , and is far more frequently fed than ground llax. for the reason probably that it is relative ly cheaper. When the latter is used it is necessary to feed a larger quan tity than the former. In some instances the meal thus added is stirred in the milk , but in other instances , as when the calves have learned to take meal before the change from new to skim milk has begun , it is simply added to the meal. Sometimes the llaxseed is made into a jelly , and this fed along with the milk. This practice was common years ago , but it is not so much practiced now , since separator milk has come to be so extremely available. The jelly was usually warmed before It was put Into the milk , and this helped to warm the latter when cold. The amount to be fed may be regulated for a time , at least , by the Influence that the meal or the jelly exercises on the digestion. If too much is fed , the di gestion will be unduly lax. Prof. Thomas Shaw. Care of Horxe.s. While grass is the best condition powder in the world , it must be given in very small doses at first until the horse gets used to it. It is" much better to let a horse gft his grass from the pasture in his own way than to cut it and place it in his manger for him. If horses are allowed to run in the pasture at night they should be provided with shelter to which they can go in case of storms. A wet hide Is conducive to much trouble. In spite of the general belief that all mules are born stubborn and vicious it is not true. If right care is used in breaking the mule when young he can be made just as gentle and useful as a horse. Most bad mules arc the result of bad breaking. Did you ever notic that a new collar which fits perfectly in the spring may be too large in a week ? This Is be cause a horse's shoulders shrink when suddenly put to hard work when he Is soft. soft.A sore neck is invarably the result of an Ill-fitting collar. If the old horse shows a ravenous appetite all the time but does not get fat you may be pretty sure his teeth are bad and that he Is unable to properly chew his food. Get busy with a file. The Inside xpf the horse stable should be kept clean wltrr whitewash. .It Is not right to bring a hors § In from the bright sunlight and shut him up In a dark stable for more than a few hours , particularly in the day time. Some horses are so fastidious that they will not lie down in filthy straw , and thus fail to get the needed rest. If he works hard he deserves a good , clean bed. A horse's stomach Is small and he should be fed often. lie will begin to lose tlesh the moment he goes hungry. There is a great difference between a good feeder and a greedy feeder. The latter bolts his feed because he is fn too big a hurry to get away with it. Put some large pebbles in his feed box and let him nose around for MB grub. E. V. * . T.'alton , Condr. S. P.
