VARIETY IN THE FooD OF ANNALS No
man is contented with the same dish for din
ner every day, neither will he thrive as well for
confning himself to one article of diet how
ever wholesome it may be. The Creator has
provided a constant variety of ripening fruits
and grain to correspond with mans desire for
change. Animals have the same want and to
some extent the same provision. The OK ranges
over the field to find out different varieties of
grass. Animals in the yard will nose over the
refuse heap to pick out something different
from their accustomed food. The pig turns
from his regular meal Of corn, to root for nuts,
bulbs, and other tit-bits These facts should be
kept in mind in the Winter care of stock. An
alienation of roots, cut feed oil meal, ETC.
with an occasional treat of grain and shorts,
will please their palates, keep up appetite pro
mote digestion and general thrift. Hogs as
well as other animals need such a change
The sweepings Of the barn, which contains
clover heads, SEEDS bits of hay and straw etc,
should be thrown into the pen where they will
be eagerly devoured, and will contribute not
little to the health as well as the comfort Of the
animals.

Analysis shows this, and the instinct of Icattle

always agree with instinct but, in the main the
animal taste verifes the decisions of the labor

it, when it is put in competition with other

the favorite feeding ground. Some of the
necond growth of this grass had gone to seed,
and though past its prime, it was grazcd more
closely than any other part of the field As
the cattle have the grass and hay to eat, it is
bnt fair that their appetites should be suited
