Save Your HuSkS.

They are excellent in winter,
for cattle, especially with a little
salt water sprinkled over them
There are no better mats than
those made from husks, and one
can be made by any man or boy
in four hours; braid the husks one
evening aud sew them the next,
and you have a substantial mat
TO last through the winter. To
make huSk mattre sses, let the boys
split the husks into strips, by draw
ing an old fork through them
when fine enough cut off the nubs
and when you have enough, put
them in a tick, and tack them
as you would hair or wool. Mat
tress makers have a machine for
preparing them, but children's
fingers are just as good. Old husk
mattresses may be made as new
by ripping them to pieces, giving
the contents of the tick good
summing, removing all dust and
adding enough fresh material to
make up the required quantity.
