FEEDING Work HORSES. object of
soaking the hay chaff instead of merely
moistenins it in the ordinary way is to sof-
ten it and allow it to absorb water just as
we soak dried apples before cooking them.
OF course, we must not use more water than
the hay will absorb, and in such case it
would wash out the sugar and other valua-
bic nutritiye matter from the hay. 1t is true
that if water is used for soaking the next
feed of hay, the sugar would not be lost
provided it did not ferment. A little expe
rience will enable any one to regulate the
matter. Horses so fed, with little grain,
will fiji their stomachs sooner and have
more time 10 rest, and will be able to do
more work than if turned out into pasture
and in the morning you know where to find
them and can eat your breakfast with dry
feet. But the horses must be well groomed
especially at night, and the stables properly
ventilated and kept clean and sweet No
food should be left in the manger IF it is
not eaten up clean, it should be removed
before the horses are taken from the stable
l would give them what hay they would eat
In the rack, but none to waste.-J. Hdrris

CANNING TOMATOES the Syracuse
CntoH we find the following: ''The most
thorough and reliable mode ofcanning toma.
toes is as follows: They are just sufficiently
steamed, not cooked, TO scald or loosen the
skin, and are then poured upon tables and
the skin removed, care being taken to pre.
serve the tomato in as solid state as possi-
bic. After being peeled, they are placed in
large pans, with false bottoms perforated
with holes, so as to strain off the LIQUID that
emanates from them. From these pans
they are carefully placed by hand into the
cans, which are filed as solidly as possible
IN other words, all are put in the cans will
hold They are then put through the usual
process and hermetically sealed. The cans
when opened for use, present the tomato
not only like the natural vegetable in t.sto
and color, but also in appearance md
moreover, when thus sealed, they are war
ranted to keep in any climate, and when
opened, will taste as naturally as when lust
plucked from the vine"

SAVE THE FERTILIZERS. Much matter
of a fertilizing character is suffered to go to
waste on farms for the lack of a little care
in gathering, preserving and applying it to
the soil. Being distributed in small parcels
at various points, it is regarded as of little
consequence, but if brought together the
several amounts would assume an impor-
tance which the separate parts failed to
indicate. If the parcels of manure one frc-
quently sees about sheds, hog pens, hen
roosts, door yards and the like, were careful
ly gathered and applied to the farm and the
garden, the products OF each would be ma
terially increased, while the cost of the gath
ering and application would be fully repaid
by the superior healthfulness resulting from
their removal When this refuse matter is
not in proper state for immediate use, it
should be gathered into heaps for fermenta-
tion-the masses being augmented from
time to time, as material accumulates, till
the preparation of the wheat ground shall
call for its application. Save all should be
the ruling idea with the farmer. Rural

To MAKE A CALF DRINK MTLK.-About
the first of April had in my possession
(from choice cow very fine calf which |
was desirous of raising, but it was so obsti-
nate that it was utterly impossible for me
to make it drink without first putting my
finger in It's mouth, and then as soon as the
hand was withdrawn it would not drink
DROP. | kept it in this manner for two
weeks, giving it during this time sufficient
milk TO keep 1t from, starving, and had
made up my mind to kill it. when tried
the following plan | took a piece of corn
cob, put one end in the calls mouth, the
other in the milk. This it would suck. and
as soon as the cob fell from its mouth it
went diving around the pail to find it, aud
in few minutes it began to drink l re-
peated this operation but twice, when l
took the cob away and it drank alone, and
has done SO ever since. The calf is now
doing well and growing finely. If any are
bothered in the manner | was, would ad-
wise them TO try the plan | did, and | will
guarantee it to be very effective. Cor. Of

Condensed History of Steam.

About two hundred and eighty years E. C., uier, of Alexandria. formed toy which exhib- tied some powers of steam, which was moved by It's power.
 A. D. 45e. Anthenius an architect. arranged several caldrons of water, each covered with the wide bottom Of leather tube. which rose to a narrow top, which pipes extended to the rafters of the adjoining building. fire was kindled beneath the ealdrous. and the house was shaken by the efforts of the steam ascending the tubes. This is the first notice of the power Of steam re- corded.
 In l5i3. June IT. Blasco D. Garoy tried a steamboat of 209 tons with tolerable success, al, Barcelona. Spain. It consisted of a caldron of boiling water. and a movable wheel on each side of the ship. It was laid aside as impractcable. A present. however. twas made to GarOy.

To Cure and Smoke Bacon.

At this season of the year, all our farmers are preparing to salt their hams and bacon, so we propose to give them a receipe whereby salting short process Many of our housewives are forced to depend upon their neighbors for con veniences to smoke with Those of us who own smokehouses know how difficult it Is to smoke just right By this process all trouble is avoided Take a laSge-sized butter-6rkin caskr or barrel, according to the meat you desire to smoke. Place it over fire of corn-cobs with the corn on. Meat smoked in this way is highly favored. The corn seems to produce better taste than cobs or wood, or green walnnts. Let the tub smoke from five to six hours. To one hundred pounds of meat take eight pounds of salt, two pounds of coarse brown sugar Cor three pinis Of molasses), and two ounces of saltpetre. Rub a little fine salt into the hams and shoulders, then pnt the meat into the smoke tub, cover it with cold water and turn in tue salt, sugar, and salt petre. cover closely, and set In cool place where 1t will not freeze. If scum rises on the brine turn it of, and scald and add a little more salt. If desired to keep through the summer, in early spring smoke the tub three hours longer, put back the meat and turn on the brine when cold. In month after pickling, the hams will be ready to use. They can be kept in the brine ali summer, and if ham is cut, return t 10 she tub for further use Beef and tongues can be kept In the same manner, and there is no danger from insects. In six or seven weeks the beef l. pickeled and smoked enough to dry. This is the surest and most expeditions way of sailing and smoking pork aud beef, and if once tried will al ways be adopted.-Hsdrth and Home.

WHAT HoRsEs BRISG.-Horses of great repu- tation have almays commanded great prices. At New Market, in 1905, bay colt, by Pipato. sold for S75,0O0 In the same year, a two year old colt by Beningborough, a two-year old by Vol unteer, and three-year old lilly by Sir Peter. were sold for s75.000 each For the celebrated horse Shark, s50,0O0 was refused, and 0'Kelly declined to accept an offer ot slO0OO0 for his stallion. Tradition says that the Duke of Dew ovnshire refused for Flying Childers the weight of the horse in gold. A few years ago the great sire Stockwell could not be bought for slOO,OO0, and we presume that when Gladiateur was car rying everything before him on the English turf, the Count de la Grange would not have parted with him for sl50.000. Coming to America, we find that nearly sl5,000 were paid for Lexing- ton, and that his son, Kentucky, was sold for s40,00O. Mir. Alexander refused s50,0O0 for Astsroid, Kentucky's half.brother, and Norfolk another halfbrother, was valued at siO,OOo. Mr Bonner paid s35 900 for Dexter and offers slOo,- 900 for one that can equal Dexssr's wagon time Tsp, Field and fhrm.

A GREAT discovery is said to have been re- gently made by a surgeon of the British army in China, in the way of an effectual remedy for smallpox. The mode of treatment is as follows: "When the preceding fever is at its night, and inst before the eruption ap- pears, the chest IS rubbed with croton oil and tartaric acid This causes the whole of the eruption to appear on that part of the body, to the relief of the rest. It also secures full and complete eruption, and thus prevents the disease from attacking the internal or gans. This is now the established mode of treatment in the Epgiish army in China, and is regarded as perfect cure"
