The Vermont Farmer says Mr.. Emery,
Of Worcester, after trying several ways OF
feeding horses, has settled down on the'fol-
lowing He feeds whole hay, with six
quarts of bran and corn meal, halEand-
half, twice a day, wet. He has fed so for
the last year His horses look finely, and
he works them hard, but at the same time
he is careful man with team. lie in-
tends to have them fed at stated times, once
in twelve hours" This is much better than
feeding meal alone, as the course bran sep
arates the particles of meal and prevents
its packing so hard as it otherwise would in
the stomach Of the horse, but even this is
not a safe way with all horses. The con-
centrated food should be more divided with
coarse fodder. Young and vigorous horses
may stand it well for few years, as their
digestion is more active, but bran and meal
mixed in equal portions is too compact for
proper digestion in most horses, and they
will in a short time be affected With collie
and many other stomach complaints. The
omnibus lines in cities have had experience
on a large scale, and find the only safe way
is to feed meal, or meal aud bran, mixed
with about an equal weight Of cut straw or
hay. This gives abundance Of strong feed,
and also bulk, leaving the contents of the
stomach 10 proper condition, so that the
gastric juice can circulate freely through
the mass, and come in contact with every
portion at once. Feeding concentrated food
to horses without admixture with coarser
fodder is the fruitful cause Of stomach COM
plants, COLES, inaamations blind staggers,
&c. We have known many horses lost by
feeding meal alone, or meal with a small
quantity Of bran.

A beefsteak is always best broiled but
the following method is recommended when
broiling is not convenient The frying
pan being wiped dry, place itupon the stove
to become hot, In the meantime pepper
and salt the steak, then lay it on the hot,
dry pan, and instantly cover as tightly as
possible. When the raw flesh touches the
heated pan, of course it seethes aud adheres
to it, bat in few seconds it becomes loos.
ened and juicy. Every halfmiuute turn
the steak but be careful to keep it as much
as possible under cover, When nearly
done lay small piece of butter upon it
and if you want much gravy, add a table.
spoonful of strong coffee. This makes the
most delicious, delicately broied steak full
of juice, yet retaining all theheathy, bee5
flavor that any John Bull could require
An excellent gravy may be made by adding
little cream, thickened by a pinch o.
flour, into which, when off the fire anC
partially cool, stir the yolk of an egg wei
beaten.

Turnip Flavor in MIX and Butter.

A correspondent of the American Agri-
culturiSt states that last winter he fed tur-
nips in the usual way at milking time to
five cows, until the milk and butter became
50 strong that it could not be used. He
then commenced feeding Immediately after
milking, and found that there was not a
particle of turnip flavor in the milk OF
butter" After time the taste returned.
On investigation, he found that one of the
cows was nearly dry, and was MIXED only
once day, while she was fed with turnips
twice day. She gave but pint of milk
per day, so that when fed in the morning
she could have had only about half a pint
Of milk in her bag yet this received so
much taste from the turnips that it spoiled
the milk Of four other cows in full flow. To
make the tost complete, he had her MIXED
twice a day when the difficulty at once
ceased and did not again occur Evidently
a very small amount Of milk in the udder
will suffice to do the mischief, and if drying
off cows are MIXED once day while on
turnip feed, their milk should not be mixed
with that from the rest of the herd.

Almost any one has it in his power to
keep up the fertility Of his soil, if he does
not lay out too much work, and undertake
to do more than his time or money will per-
nit him to do well. 1t is because a man
Is poor that his farm runs down, and there
is no surer way to get poor and to keep
poor than to occupy more land than one
can work well. When one has so much
land that he cannot work it well, and ha.
not money enough to employ others to
work it for him, hundreds of things which
could be done to a profit are not done; and
thus onc-haf often Of what the laud might
yield does not come from it. Then he has
but half manure enough to raise crops foi
50 much ground properly, and but half O
crop results. Thus he loses at both ends
and gets poorer and poorer each year.
Nothing helps farmer so much as tC
have a full relief from being "driyen." II
the bitches are all cleaned out, the surface
water which Injuries crops SO much in the
spring will have better chance to drain
away So also will it help his roads. The
water passing off, the frost will not pone-
trate so deep, and thus there will be not SO
much cutting up in the spring. But best
of all, the ditch.cleanings are about the
best top-dressings for grass lands and
orchard trees that one can possibly have.
We do not know that we could suggest
better subject for farm winter study
than how to avoid being "driyen with
work or "pinched for money Whenever
one gets to this condition there is assuredly
something wrong which needs rightiug, and
which must be righted before much money
can be made.
The lazy man never makes money but
the one who never has any time" or who
is &" all behind with his work." is about in
as bad fix, if not worse, for very often he
is no better of than the lazy fellow, with
the sad reflection included that his labor
has been spent in yain.-Germantotoa TEL
