Charcoal for Cattle.

10 rsg Charcoal for Cattle.
tr An exchange SAYS that the use of char
coal as well as salt has been highly re-
commended for cattle, as tending to keep
them in good condition and help their
general improvement. Salt acts healthily
i on the blood Charcoal strengthens
and heals the mucous membranes through
out the aEmehtary canal, and increases
the power of the digestive organs, healing
any unhealthy condition existing there. It
prevents worms generating in the stomach,
&c, It absorbs the putrescent gases by
which worms are generated, and they
subsequently die. The free use of char
coal will contribute to protect cattle from
epidemlcs, and will counterfeit The effects
OF putrescent or septic water.
Many farmers have, doubtless, noticed
that cattle and sheep are remarkably
4 healthy when running in fields recently
: burned off, among the charred stumps and
logs. We have known flock of poor
sheep in flesh to improve to that extent
when PERMITTED to run among charrei
j iogs for few weeks that they would bring
nearly double their former value. The
W good effect is not perhaps SO marked With
& cattle, but always advantageous to the
health and prosperity of the animals

Useful Recipes.

HoP YEAsT.-Take two large potatoes
and boil until done then put handful
of hops in the water in which the potatoes
were boiled, keeping it at boiling heat
ten or twelve minutes. Meanwhile mash
the potatoes smooth, With four tablespoon
fuls OF -four, adding also three spooniuls
of warm water. Pour the hop water
hot into the batter, adding tablespoonful
Of sugar. This makes 4 thin batter, TO
to which add a cup Of old yeast, which,
however, must be sweet. Put into a bot
tie or jug for use. A pint of flour requires
one tablespoonful Of yeast.
SALT YEAsT.-Put a gallon Of cold
water on the fire let it come to boil,
and then put into it eight good Irish po-
tatoes, and boil until well done, when they
must be mashed fine, together with one
teacupful Of salt and one OF white sugar.
Directly after taking out the potatoes, put
a handful Of hops into the water, and let
it boil while you are preparing the pota-
toes. Mix these with the hop.water, which
must be boiling hot when added, ard un,
strained. When nearly cold, add one cup
Of lively yeast, stir well, and set aside to
rise in warm place for twenty four hours.
Then strain, bottle, md cork up tightly.
Strain through a sleye only, that as'mucn
potato as possible may press through
Allow half teacupful of this yesss to a
quart of good flour in cool weather; in
summer a less quantity is required. Keep
the bread warm while rising.

al Take Care Of the Calves.

The Ohio Farmer gives the following
good advice.
Much of the future growth, and in fact
much of the profits of the farmer arising
from his st oek, depends upon the care
~ which it receives during the first year.
do not visa TO be understood by this thar
if Il farmer takes good care Of his stock
the first year, he can afterward let them
run "hap-hazard every good farmer
will see that his stock at all times is we'll
cared for But the first year is the foun-
dation, it is the starting point of their
future growth.
There are many farmers who are in the
habit Of giving their calves nothing but
- whey frornth time they are about three
weeks old until they are weaned. They
are then left TO run and pick their living
rs best they MAY until winter, when they
q are taken teFthe barn and put into some
- little back howell, with nothing but hay till
spring, or rs have often 'en, turned in
TO a stack. In either case, they are, when
81 spring, comes, SO stunted and poor that
they make but q slow growth ever after.
ward Consequently, when selling time
comes, the farmer finds his stock far be.
bind iRsige and price Of his neighbours who
had cared well tor bis calves. One instance
of this came within my knowledge Some
steers, raised as abtve, sold for fifteen dol.
lars, while those Of bis neighbor, which
had been well cared for while young, sold
readily. for twenty-five dollars. The
quality Of the stock uf the former was full
~ equal to The latter to start with.
