"Grain.KilIedO Horses.


SOME few years ago there lived IN TINS

he owned one of the poorest grass farms

He would buy horses in those cities from
gentlemen that kept but one horse-horses

road as family horses, and were fed very
highly of grain, and had been In the city
some four, SIX or more years. ana were

Moldy Substances In Rooms.

An exchange remarks that Il has long
been known that the presence of mold In
rooms Ia highly injurious TO human health.
Under certain conditions of dampness and
bad ventilation, IL is no uncommon thing
TO see mildew run all over large expanse
Of whitewashed wall or ceiling. II this
mold occurs in living room, and It be
not destroyed, II frequently brings on a
complication of painful symptoms In the
human patient, or In other words, the
membranes and tissues of the body arc
known TO offer fitting habitat for the plant,
and II IL transferred from the original OBJ
jects TO the human frame. A weak solu.

been recommended rs a destroyer OF molds
In rooms and as their growth is both
common and rapid, In this country, in
damp and illventilRted situations, the
remedy Ia worth trial

Politicians Talking Cabinet 70 General

BEINal in the vicinity of army head
quarters one day last week, according to
my custom, in search of "mems.," l met
two wellknown Republican politicians, of
national reputation, just fresh from an in
terview with the President elect. sa-
luted them with
"Good morning, gentlemen. suppose
you have had an interview with the Gen
eral."
"Oh, yes" replied one of the Tparty,
with significant smile "but we didn't
make much out of him"
"Upon Cabinet affairs, presume"
ventursd to remark, trying to pump them,
as they had been trying to pump the
General.
"Yes, we tried to get him to indicate
something as to his preferences for the
Cabinet appointments, but what do you

the particular story he referred to, and he

Dressing Girls.

In these cold, blowy, snowy days. | am
panied to see the efforts of foolish parents
to freeze their little girls. II is an out
rage. Girls should be dressed Just as
comfortably as boys. On the contrary,
the poor little shivering things are sent
out into the streets, with their heads com.
fortahly protected, thick shawls around
their shoulders which comparatively need
no protection, their skirts standing out at
an angle of forty five degrees, and their
poor little drum-stick legs as unprotected
from the blasts as the legs of turkey
hanging In meat-stall. And thus we
pack off these little girls to school, with
their big heads to be crammed full of
learning, at the expense of their legs,
which, at tender age, are of more i'm
portance than their heads
AS general rule, parents should de-
vote their entire attention to their little
girls legs and let their heads alone. The
heads will take care OF themselves in due
time. The legs are helpless and need
looking after. BY taking care of the
heads little girls acquire a knowledge,
such as II is, of music, drawing, all the
modern languages, botany, the use OF the
globe, embroidery, poetry, and In general a
little of nothing, and by noglecting at the
same time their legs, they acquire colds,
coughs, headaches, weak backs, pipe-stem
legs, hollow chests, neuralgias and other
complaints, which either send them to
Heaven before they ought To go, To be
made into premature angels, or II they
live TO grow up, make them drag through
miserable, unhappy and unhealthy life.
And all this time you take your great
strapping, tough hulks of boys, who are
never cold and are twice as strong and
hardy as your girls, and wrap them up,
and tt them out in thick woolen trousers
and drawers aud heavy top boots. The
result is they grow up TO be tough, strong
men, and these little wretched, artificial
feminine creatures don't grow up at all,
or If they do, they develop into a sort of
human curiosity, far better for preserva-
tion In a case Of butterflies than for con
tact with the sharp edges of the world,
II had absolute power granted me
would call together every mother in this
city and | would whisper In their ears /.
Take those girls of yours and clothe
them properly, You have no business to
embitteT their future lives with the misery
of poor health, and some of you notice
are numbering your children II Is there
fore ordered that within twonty-four hours,
every one of these blessed little girls shall
have nice, warm wooden garments, her
legs protected thoroughly, and her feet
shod with thick comfortable shoes, through
which dampness will not penetrate"
And after the twenty four hours, If !
found little girl running about in any
other condition, by the Eternal, would
hang the mother for murder or malicious
intent to kill.
That is what would do If had abso.

Sheep Racks.

II sheds are used to feed sheep In, Il is
always best 10 construct racks around next
TO the walls, so that the hay may be put In
from the outside They are easily made
by driving stakes of scantling twenty
inches from the sill, and six feet apart ;
nail on boards about one foot wide at the
bottom, and others eight or ten inches
above these. Cleats may be nailed up and
down once In ten inches, II desired, so that
each sheep may have stall by himself
but we do not approve Of this plan il
there are any horned sheep In the fock.
Cut away the weather boarding from
the sill up eighteen or twenty inches
put a girt on the inside Just above the
opening 10 stay the siding then broad
board, or two cleated together, should be
hung by leather or strap hinges on the
outside This door may be raised and the
hay put IN without disturbing the hock.
II Is bad plan 10 enter shed filed
with sheep carrying fork full Of hay I;
the animals are frightened and in their
rush TO get out, the weaker ones are
knocked down and trsmpled upon, and the
less fearful get their heeces filled with seed
ard chat as the hay is passed over their
backs.
To make racks for outdoor feeding,
take six pieces Of two by three scantlinR,
three feet long for uprights In the corners,
and centers OF the sides; nail on boards
the same as before specified, and make the
rack about two aud half feet wide hang
boards In the spaces at the sides so that the
sheep may be kept out until the feed is
ready for them; this prevents the liability
Df their being injured by the pilchfork, or

'''I mr. Keeping Poultry Psyi


This question may be truthiully an
swered yes by some, ana no py otneIs.
"a ,,rolts and losses from keeping fowls
sn,'cpss entirely uron the facilities for the
Susiness. Those who have poultry houses
scnstructed so that their flock may be
confneA and liberated at will, and have a
ssstA for the Improvement of breeds, can
MAKE the business pay but the farmer,
who has no yther conveniences for them
than n polo put up in barn for q perch,
and no picket fence around his garden,
cannot make Il profitable. He will lose
dolIara whore dimes are received.
Fowls without care and protection will
not law from November to April, and
during that time each individual hen will
consume enough grain 10 four times paw
the value OF her body, 10 say nothing of
the annoyance Of having a flock of twenty
10 thirty plunge into corn crib every
time the door is left open for a few min
ates or to mount bucket Of grain If set
down while in a hurry, and deVour half OF
II, and dip their not always tidy bills into
a pail of milk, which is set upon the barn
floor while filing another, and lucky II
some overgrown shanghai does not Jump
into Il, OF upset the whole or, having 70
clean harness, fork and shovel-handles,
buggy OF cutter-cushions, every time be.
fore using them.
In the summer about one dog or two OF
three boys are required TO keep the hens
out Of the garden and strawberry patch
and drive them home from the neighbors
and, by the way, more neighborhood
broils originate by keeping unruly and
unrestrained hens than from any other
cause. The garden is planted and re.
planted, and although the seed "come up v
the same day they are put In, garden
sauce is usually late and not very abun'
dant.
The man who loves the business, and
takes pleasure in preparing good and com.
Portable winter quarters, and fits up proper
conveniences for summer keeping can
make the poultry pay, " not carried to toe
grea. an extent. II is very seldom thai
any one succeeds when poultry keeping IL
made an extensive business. On a small
scale II is often made highly profitable
but when the number is increased 10 q
large amount, the proportionate profit
does not keep pace. What the cause is,
we do not know, but should attribute II
to the inherent tendency of fowls to de-
teriorate when congregated in large num-
bers, rather than to bad management.
Let the man who gives poultry no fur.
ther attention than continually cursing
them for their depredations, mark down
the amount Of grain fed and destroyed,
fruit stolen by them, injury done in the
garden, time spent cleaning up after them
and IL the aggregate does not amount to
three times the value of all eggs received,
and carcasses, besides, he may put uE
down as a false prophet-0hio Farmer.

When health has been sacrihced for want Of the
care necessary to protect II, regrets unavail-
ing. It is better to prepeat than TO wpent. The
most inclement season Of the year is at hand, and
It's cold and damp are the source Of innumerable
distressing ailments. The best means Of escaping
them is to keep the outward surface Of the body
comfortably warm with suitable clothing, and the
internal organs in vigorous condition by the oc-
casional use Of a healthful tonic and corrective.
Winter makes tremendous drafts upon the vital
forces, and, therefore, It is a season when pure
vegetable stimulant and invigorant like HOSTEL
TER's STOMACH BITTERs is ofinhnite use, es-
pecialy to the weak and feeble. 1t gives stGEfand
to the system, and thereby enables it TO withstand
the shocks Of cold, which produce cough, bronchi-
tbs, catarrh, and other diseases OF the organs Of
respiration. Dyspepsia and every species Of indi-
gestion are also greatly aggravated by cold, damp
weather, and for these complaints the BITTERS
are an acknowledged specific. There is no fact
better known in this country, and, indeed,
throughout the civilized portions of the Western
Hemisphere than thasthis genial preparation lie
swift and certain remedy for all ordinary diseases
of the stomach and the liver.

The Hog Its Value, aud how to Care
for Il.

The hog is an animal of great impor-
tance in this country, and in every day be-
coming more so Almost every family
outside of large cities, and even in the sub.
urbs of those, can keep one or more pigs
Pork can be grown cheaper than any other
kind of meat, and what Is OF much impor-
tanoe, a small outlay Of capital brings a
quick return If kept in good condition,
the pig may be slaughtered at any age
after IL Is one month old. II not only
supplies the kitchen with meat, but the
very important item Of lard, which is a
universal want in pastry and almost every
variety Of cookery There is no other ant.
NAL used as food for man that can supply
so many and varied wants.
The health and good condition Il an i'm.
portant matter with every owner of stock.
The hog, like other animals should be kept
clean, or rather II should have an oppor-
tunity of keeping itself clean. It's house
should have a good roof 10 turn the rain
Its floor should be sufficiently elevated TO
be kept dry, and no hollow plaoes for pud-
dies Of water TO stand. II viii do well on
good pasture during the summer with
very little slop or grain. Clover is the
very best pasture for II.
Grain food should always be steamed or
cooked In some way. There Is great econ.
omy in this, The trouble or labor is very
little, and she gain or saving is about one
third. II Is no excuse TO say that you have
no time to do this, for you cannot spend
your time at anything that will pay better
If one bushel of cooked corn is worth one
and half bushels fed raw, thenyou save
