Sailing STooK.-Probably we do not
know all the uses of salt in the animal
economy; but few are obvious. 1t acts
benefcially upon the liver, yields sup.
ply of soda to the bile, and gives increas.
ed nutritive power to food. 1t acts as
vermifuge, keeping the bowels of stock
free from worms, and gives increased tone
to the stomach. 1t tends to prevent rot
in sheep. As to the amount and the time
of giving it, farmers disagree. Some are
accustomed to salt their stock regularly,
once week. Many successful farmers
keep salt within reach of their stock, be.
lieving that they will eat only as nature
