. HORsERADIsII FOR ANIMALs.-An
exchange says Horseradish is an ex-
| cellent condinent to mix with the fOod
of COWS to give them an appetite, and
| make them sleek and thrifty. At
should be fed freely to all animals that
| are not well, and it will be of great ser
vice to the working oxen troubled
with heat. If given to cows i'm doses
of pint a day, mixed with potatoes or
bran, it will prevent or relieve cows OF
the disease called cake in the bag. Few
animals will refuse to eat it, and some
will eat of it greedily, as much as half
/ a peck at a time:

In England especially, where labor Is
cheap enough to permit it, the wheat
crop receives q hand-hoe1ng and weed
ing, and the consequence. is that the
average crops are forty bushels per acre,

pounds per bushel. We would srg-
