Economy in Feeding Horses.

A WRITER in the american ,Stock Jour-
nal says: e.#
Every one who keeps a horse, either for
| profit or pleasure, in addition to keeping
him WE'LL should study how to keep him
with an outlay Of the least money. The
farmer who has plenty of food for his
horse should be no exception. All that
the farmers grow or should grow can be
converted into money; there should be no
waste because of plenty. If your present
stock will not consume all your stock food
economically fed, buy more stock to make
a profit on the balance. A farmer who un.
derstands his business will always know
how to do this; but never waste although
your farm and granaries may be full to
Overlooking.
Grass, either green or cured, is the nat
ural food Of the horse, and is essential 10
his good health. Green is the natural
state, therefore the best; but we cannot
have it green all the year round in this
climate, therefore we should do the next
best thing with it-co0k it---ste0na it. Elk
perience has proven that hay when
steamed has all its natural juices and vir-
tues revived, and is equal to grass, and
nearly or quite as palatable to stock-that
even mouldy nay, when steamed is just as
palatable to stock as that which has been
well cured and preserved. For both con-
venience and economy, hay should be cut
before being steamed. Hay and straw
cutters have been so improved of late
years, and competition has so reduced
prices, that there is no excuse for any man
who keeps horse to not have one.
Straw has become too valuable to be
used for bedding stock. Look at its price
in the market reports-it is almost equal
to the best of hay, then why waste it when
you can make so much more out of it by
steaming and feeding it? 1t isl not thus
lost to the manure beap--it. may be in
bulk, but not in its fertilizing virtues
Stable floors will have to be so constructed
as to do without bedding. Farming is be-
ing reduced to a science, and those who aotU
shut their eyes to the light of improve
ment and plod on in the old wasteful ways
of their fathers in feeding stock, will not
be able to compete with their more en-
liightened neighbors who keep up with the
times. a 11ge
There is great wastefulness in feeding
whole grain to horses, or any other stock.
1t should not only be ground but steamed.
1t should be mixed with cut hay or straw
and steamed together. This is not theory
alone, it is based on experience carefully
tested and found that there is a gain of at
least fifty per cent. s.s T. ls,.....al .iI =
Now if two tons of hay or straw cut and
steamed are equal to three tons not thus
treated, and two bushels of corn ground
and steamed are equal to three bushels un-
ground and raw, then every third ton and
every third bushel is saved by this process,
which will enable the farmer to keep one
third more stock-here is where the extra
profit comes in. vrrt,

Living by Rule.

LIVING by rule, as Medic. Persian law,
iDfeXible, is very unwise, especially if a
person is in reasonable health. We have
given great multitude of counsels on che
subject of health and disease, and in con-
nection with the statement that we have
not lost an hour from our Office on account
of sickness in a quarter of century or
more, many have inquired, with good
deal of interest, edo you live up to the
rules you give others ?" Certainly not !;
man is not machine, that must be
turned in certain direction or it will be
destroyed nor like a locomotive, which
must run on one fixed track, or not run
at all.
The Architect of all worlds made us for
acting under a great variety, of circum-
stances, and in infinite wisdom and benev-
olence has given to man mechanism of
wonderful adaptability, by which he can
live BEAUTIFULLY on land or sea !; in the val
ley or on the mountain top !; in the tropics
or at the poles; on the barren rocks or in
the rich savannas. Our mode of life must
be adapted to our age, our occupation, and
the peculiarities of our constitution.
There are certain general principles which
are applicable to all. Every man should
be regular in his habits of eating; should
have all the sound sleep which nature will
take; should be in the open air an hour
or two every day, when practicable, and
should have pleasurable and encourag-
ingly remunerative occupation, which
keeps him little pushed, and they are
happiest who are in the last category at
the same time if a man accustoms himself
to go to bed at 8 o'clock, he need not
break his neck or get into stew, if cir
cumstances occur to keep him up an hour
or two later, now and then; and SO
with eating, exercise and many other
No one ought to make himself galley
slave to any. observance; occasional deyi-
atoms from all habits are actually bene-
fetal; they impart a pliability to the con-
stitution, give it a greater range of
healthful action. Don't 60, into a. fit if
dinner is not ready at the instant. De-
liver us from machine man, routinist,
g for which we ever pray. "--~Halpsa Jour-
nal Of Health "a as- ~, es,tf ~.

Mary Jane and the Grecian Bend.

| YUBA Dam, the racy correspondent of
the Louisville Courier, writes: r
Mary Jane has got it; that fashionable
curvature of the spine called the "Grecian
bend" She caught it at Saratoga, where
she had been ON exhibition during the sea-
son. She has returned, however, bringing
with her several large trunks full of second
hand clothing. e., garments which she
has worn once.
/ As was passing a dry goods store on
Fourth street, Mary Jane was coming out
of the, door, She was pitching forward
at such a rate that I thought she was
about ito fall into my arms Iheld out
those implements of industry accordingly.
She didn't fall worth cent. Regarding
not the example set by our first parents,
she maintained her curviliniar form, and,
placing the tip of a gloved e-finger on
my outstretched palm, she said, in the
fashionable drawl of a Fifth Avenoodle,
cav, Yubaw, is it you? Deloited."
She picked up that Internal accent and
language at Saratoga also.
i"Why, Jennie, dear, this is an unexpect-
ed pleasure Grabbing both the little
hands and rolling them up together)
was not looking for you for some weeks.
You are i'll. l am sorry Shall I assist
you to your carriage?" ,-,-
She looked something like the half of a
parenthesis, but more like an interroga-
ton point. I was certain that she had
been eating unripe fruit, and was suffering
from collie, and wondered why she did not
go home and take something. But she
said: n1st4e
"Never was bettaw in ma loife. I was
fawced to lave that sweet place, because
had absolutely nothing to weaw."
Nothing to wear! Why, what has be-
come of all your clothes Did you have a
fire, or did you exchange them for flower
vases and plaster Paris statuettes of the
Apostles" -
"Haw stupid had warn all my dresses
once, and its nawt the stoyle to appeal
in the same appawral twice"
"Confound the style! But am glad
you came home, if you did come home
almost naked and so changed that it is
difficult to realize that it is you You are
among friends now, and | hope you will
shortly recover your speech and your
