AeRHCUL1URAE..

SALT AID AsliEs ron HoRsEs.-
Those keeping horses should twice a
week throw IN a handful of salt and
ashes. Mix them BY putting in three
parts of salt to one Of ashes. Horses
relish this, and II viii keep their hair
soft and fine. 1t will prevent bots,
cole. etc. A little ground sulphur,
mixed with salt and ashes, and given
once in two or three weeks Is also
beneficial. All domestic animals viii
be thus benefited.
CIIAFF IN AN ANIMALS EYE.-Prof.
Law gives this method of removing
chatf from the eye ofan animal: "lle
best way Il to pick it of with il pair of
fine pinceis, the head being held stead-
lily by an assistant having hold Of the
nose and the eyeid. held open by the
other hand. In the absence Of pincers
or torceps, cover pin with a single
layer OF a soft handkerchief, and sGrlpe
oil the cllatf with the head of a pin so
protected. The eve will suffer much
more rom the on inued presenc of he
clatf than from pretty active scrapiag.
Keep a wet rag in cold water over the

then touch it diily with feather dil :
