But succulent food should be fed in a, warm harn. not out in the open field. This 18 a. hard thing to impress upon those who are lovers of the steer.

No matter how much green grass you have out in the winter pasture, the cow giving milk is not the animal to turn out there to eat it. She will do well at it for a time, but soon will ad-l just herself to the climate and fatten instead of continuing to fill the pan! until spring.

The weather “When the cow is wet and chilled she uses the feed for warming herself. and what is used in: this way does not appear in the milk pail. It is gone, radiated to the wild prairie winds; lost forever. A cold rain causes her : to shrink in milk. A. raw wind dries her up. Foraging in the stalk fields in winter will do more harm than good. 1 She must be where the temperature apâ€" proximates summer temperature if she is to make milk as she will in sum- mer weather. Don’t send the cow to: the fields for her feed in cold weather. bring the feed to her. ‘ I Mr. E. C. Bennett, in a letter, takes up this subject in the following: “One of the hardest things to impress upâ€" on farmers is the value of comfort to the cow. No matter how well and wisely feed, if the cow. is not comfort- able she will not eliminate a. full mess of milk. I When I went to the farm where these cows were kept, everything 1nd:- cated a scrimping of feed, and,.like too many herds, they were permitted to roam during the fall months, even. up to December; consequently at the first of December, when I bought them, they were thin, with rougli coats. Under our treatment they were stabled as soon as cold, frosty nights came on, and were not allowed outside the barn yard after November first. and fed grain continuously until dry. This particular cow is now dry and1 ger and cold. Another important :matter follows generous treatment. The unborn calf will partake of this second nature, so to speak, of the mother. In other words, if the cow is ' well fed and cared for, so her term of usefulness is materially lengthened. her offspring will inherit these good qualities and themselves make better cows when matured. On the other hand, .the poorly fed cow that will, of necessxty. be dry four or five months. will transmit the same tendency, and her daughters will be no improvement on their dam. ucuuuauy correct, says a correSpond- out I have acow in my stables now that more depends on care and feed than a11ything else. I bought her three Years ago, being given my choice in a. herd of some thirty cows. Out of the herd I bought four cows at $25 apiece.

They eat it greedily, fatten well on it, and obtain a bright, lustrous plumage and strong, healthy condition. It is the best egg producing food known ' for poultry, and can be raised cheaper than corn.” Green food is very essential to egg production. Clover hay ”steeped _in 'nfim Civn‘-“ A complete separation of the flock in winter is a very important thing. The laying hens in one flock, the late chicks by themselves, and if any num- ber of cockerels are kept, they should be kept separate from the rest. Una less the eggs are wanted for incuba- ] non purposes, the presence of cocks in [the laying apartment is unnecessary. In feeding for eggs during winter: When fowls are confined, great care must be exercised not to overfeed. Lay- lng hens do not require feeding three times a day, and when thus fed, over- feeding is almost sure to follow. A, large production of eggs requires the consumption of a large amount of food. \Vhen laying hens do not eat rapidly and a good deal of it, stOp feed- ing at once, and arringe to give them more exercise to bring them up to a 809d. appetite. The food must be changed often, giv- ing a good warm mash in the morning. and whole grain at night. During the day a little grain may be scattered in straw, so that they can scratch for it, by this means giving exercise. Buckwheat is an egg-producing food. but a- steady diet of it is apt to over- fatten. Split the carrots in halves, and allow the hens to peek at them at will. Have the feed troughs sufficiently large so that all the fowls can find I‘OOID. A Quart of grain for twelve hens is 3 good measurement. Milk may be profitably fed in am formâ€"sweet, sour or buttermilk. Millet seed is a. great egg-producing grain. Alv ays feed the mash crumbly, not. SlOpp}.

In a large majority of I cases of scours a dose of aperlent medi- ‘ cine is called for. This may take the shape of two or three ounces of castor oil, with thirty drops 0f tincture of opium. and a little peppermint water. Having removed the undigested matter contained in the bowels. relief from existing pain mayobe afforded by a further dose of tincture of opium, ,with which may be combined a couple‘ of drops of carbolic acid, the .whole to be given in well bmled milk, with which an egg has been beaten up. The pa- tient should be placed in a warm. dry, well ventilated pen, well littered down. Should the pain continue, the. medicine last prescribed may be repeated two or three times a day. and' in the in- tervals a little carbonate of soda and lime water may also be given in a little milk. To prevent the disease is to guard against the causes. \Vhere contagion is suspected, isolation, thorough cleansmg, and disinfection, with efficient ventilation and drain- age, should be provided. ; and again small masses of dense undi- ; gested curd are voided with them, as well as a, thick, slimy matter, mucal. and sometimes blood.

If mothers do not teach their daugh- ters these thing in their own homes. they will not be learned at all. And the mother has failed in her duty if her daughter, at the age of twenty- two or twenty-three, finds herself ut- terly lacking in: the ability to earn a dollar if it becomes. necessary for her to do so, and utterly incompetent to discharge the duties of the home to which a husband may take her. There 18 no higher maternal duty than that ignorant of the practical duties of life. They are now taught something of cooking and sewing in many of our public schools; but most of them re- gard this as mere amusement cand it counts for little in fitting them for the actual and practical work of cooking and sewing and the care of a acme. “It seems as though I ought to be able to earn a living, with all my edu- cation and accomplishments,” said a young woman suddenly reduced from affluence to the necessity. of earning her own living, “I can play the piano unusually well. and paint very cleverly on china, and embroider, and do all kinds of fancy work, and write very clever verses, and recite or sing very well.” But the cash value of all of these accom- plishments combined was less than the value of the .unlcttered Irish servant girl who could go into a kitchen and cool; fairly well. in which they can be self-supporting,” said a lady who gives much of her. time to philanthropic work. “ And,” she added, “the most hopeless cases are those of the young women who feel that they can do ‘almost any- thing,’ because no one yet succeed- ed in the limitless field of “any- thing.”’ ........ , an we case may be, we will surely burn out of busxness. burn your dwellings, barns. poison your cisterns and watering places.
