Green Corn for Bolts.

Happening to pass along where
my near neighbor was cutting up
some green corn for his horses, he re-
marked that it was the best thing one
could feed to his horses at this time
of the year. The food being sweet,
when taken into the stomach the
bolts let 60 their hold upon the lin
ing of the stomach to feed on the
sweet feed, and SO pass out. He
says he has many times seen the
dung alive with them. And the
horse felt better afterwards. AS the
gad-fy, deposits the egg on the
tanks and legs of the horse. if you
will take the pains to grease those
places with any kind of grease, say
once a week the eggs will not hatch,
even in the stomach, if they have
been creased before taken in. This
is on the principle that an ounce OF
prevention is worth a pound Of cure

TO Keep Sweet Potatoes

To keep sweet potatoes through
the winter, treat them as the ladies
do their dahlia bulbs. Pack them in
dry sand, which has been thoroughly
heated, so as to drive out all the
moisture. and then set them in a
warm dry place. Instances have
been known where they have been
kept for two years, being stored in
warm, dry cellar near the furnace.
Keep them away from all moisture.
| Unlike Irish potatoes which need q
cold situation to keep well, the sweet
potato needs to be kept warm and
| dry.
