CRIBBING HORSES.

Wind sucking and crib biting generally
go together. We believe the most fire.
quent cause of crib biting is idleness.
Every one who is accustomed to horses
must have noticed the tendency which
many horses show to gnaw the manger
and the side of the stall when they are
kept standing in the stable without doing
any mork.
A wind sucker generally seizes hold of
some part of the stall or manger with his
teeth when he swallows air, and if the
sides of the stall are perfectly level, and
there is no manager in front of him, he is
thus prevented in indulging in his habit.
1t is inconvenient however, TO keep a
horse to a stall without manger, though
it most certainly depriVes him of any
thing upon which he can seize with his
teeth. Another, and very effectual
plan is to make the horse wear muzzle
during those times when he is not fed.

have horse that has feet that swell
very badly in the frog or sole. What is
the cause and remedy ?-AYs.-The fetid
smell must arise from chronic inflammation
of portion of the sensitive sole. The
sole of the foot should be well pared and
the foot stopped with mixture of tow
and tar, which can be retained in its po-
sition by two thin pieces of wood cross
ing from one side of the foot to the 9TH
er, and resting on the upper surface of
the web of the shoe.

WORMS IN HORSES

The first effort in treating horse for
worms should be to restore or improve
the vigor of the system by nutritious
food; give also bran mash twice a week.
OF pure medicine administer a pint and
a-half of linseed oil, aud repeat the dose
every ten days for three times. Give also
drachm of powdered sulphate of iron
every night for fortnight.
r.H-.- FOR HORSES COUGH.
Mix up an ounce of extract of bella
donna in half pound of molasses and
smear a tablespoonful of the mixture on
the horses tongue three or four times a
day. This should be enough to last a
week. Avoid feeding dusty hay or oats,
as food of that kind is apt to produce ir-
ritation of the lungs. .

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
Enterprise In Farming.


WE are inclined to think that more
farmers fail in being what they wish to
be, or in having what they want to have,
through want of enterprise, than for the
lack of any other requisite. In industry and
frugality there is probably no class that
equals them. the money gained by hon.
est toll in the field, is seldom wasted in
the wine cup or on the gaming table.
They work, hard and long, and scrupu-
lously save their earnings; still, compare
lively few become wealthy, and with those
few the wealth acquired is ordinarily the
work Of life tipe. - z
This comes, We think, chiefly from
lack Of enterprise from being over eau
tious about entering into any branch Of
farming operations that has not been thor
oughly tried, tested and declared safe.
The old ad4ge, Nothing ventured, moth
ing gained, is exemplified in the lives Of
niney mine out Of every hundred farmers.
Many men select farming as an occupa-
ton for the reason that they are too eau.
tiOus to embark in trade or in any kind of
manufacture. They think there is little
chance of losing anything in managing q
farm, and they want to be on the safe
side. I8t ~ spG}3,iv .a4i-b @
These are the men who become farm
plodders They are so highly conserve
tive that they may be classed as old fogies.
They never plant a new variety of seed
till 1t has been raised so long that it has
begun to deteriorate They never ven
ture on raising new crop till some more
enterprising men have produced enough
of it to supply the market They hest
tated ten years before they set out hop
field, add just a. it got ready to bear, the
price Of hops went down. These men, If
they followed fishing, would never drop q
line into hole till some one else had
caught all the fish, or if they were trap.
ping, they would never set snares or bait
traps till the game was all captured.
A certain degree of caution is good
thing but it is quite as bad to have too
much of it as too little. For every farmer
who loses by showing some enterprise in
raising new crops, sowing new varieties
OF seed, or in branching out into some
new line Of farming, there are hundred
who keep themselves poor by always turn
ing round in the same old ruts It is not
to be expected that all new things will
pay in farming, any more than they do in
other kinds of business but some Of them
will pay, and these will compensate for
what has been lost in experimenting with
the others. AS q rule, man thinks bet
ter Of himself, and his neighbors think
better of him, if he has the courage and
enterprise to strike boldly out into some
new undertaking that promises well, even
if he fails in it, Than they do if he sits con-
tentedly down and only does the things
which his father saw his grandfather do.

Hay ~ q Feed.

CoRN-sTALKs are difficult to keep straw
| must be cut or scalded to be of benefit;
roots must be managed; and much labor
is required for all this-and at the best,
you have not reliable fodder, a "bread-
and butter for stock. But you have it
in hay, not the ripe or bleached article
that we find so much. This is worse than
good straw or corn stalks. But the hay
that is grass cured, such as we now and
then find, and once finding. never miss it
there; this is wanted. Here is something
fresh and sweet and nutritious, containing
all the elements necessary to growth and
the production Of butter and cheese, and
these of better quality and of equal or
monty produced. We say it is better,
more desirable all round than any other
feed.
1t is the natural food !; it is healthy it
is nutritious; it is readily raised and easily
gathered, enriching the land at the same
time (by its aftermath and sod), and is
easily handled. 1t needs be but thrown
to the stock, without being cut or steamed.
The butter (made Of it in winter) has
fine flavor, a good color, the cheese the
same, and the milk is your summer milk,
only more concentrated Qess watery),
therefore better. Stock is kept healthier
by feeding such hay. You see it in the
excrements, the looks, bright looks of the
cattle, their great, full, free breaths SMELL

coat is smooth. There is liveliness in

nothing more than the early-cut, we'll
cured clover. For growth, nothing per-
haps equals it; hence, just the thing for
young growing animals, which need not
fat, but muscle, bone, etc.
We have seen this hay, particularly clover,
blossoms still there, their color but slight
ly dimmed; we have seen this eaten up
clean and every time; we have seen the
fine effects in the milk, the growth, and
the good condition of the animals, and
this continued during the winter, and in
the spring large supplies of butter made;
and nothing fed but the hay; it was sui
t1cient. 1t was even better than grain,
disposing less to the evils at the time Of
parturition. The cooling effect of the
grass (hay) lessons the tendency to in
hammation and other harm, and avoids
the high straining which grain and other
strong feed induces, in the end hurting
more Than benefting, and for the present
not surprising in growth (of muscle) and
mill, quality q. well as quantity being
considered.
