CURE FOR WARTs.-Dssove q silver quarter
dollar in nitric acid. Do this in a tea-cup I;
set where it will remain warm, and use only
acid enough to dissolve the quarter, or not
quite enough. Evaporate to dryness, and then,
adding little water to re-dissolve it, pour in
to phial. Take a match-stick, bite one end a
little to make it brush-like, and dipping it in
the nitrate Of silver thus formed, touch each
wart, and the warts only, with it, wetting
them thoroughly once in two days for week
or ten days. 1t will probably be thorough
cure. Every spot touched by the nitrate of
silver will first turn white, and on exposure to
sunlight black, and it will eat holes in cloth
ing as quickly as it will eat off the warts

EGGS AS FooD.-Would it not be wise to sub
stitute more eggs for meat in cur daily diet?
About one-third of the weight of an egg is SOL
i'd nutriment. This is more than can be said
of meat. There are no bones and tough pieces
that have to be laid aside. A good egg is made
up of ten parts she'll, sixty parts white and
thirty parts yolk. The white of an egg con
tains SO per cent. water, the yolk 50 per cent.
The average weight of an egg is about two
ounces. Practically an egg is animal food, and
yet there is none of the disagreeable work of
the butcher necessary to obtain it, Eggs are
best when cooked four minutes. This takes
away the animal taste that is offensive to some,
but does not so harden the white or yolk as to
make them hard to digest. An egg if cooked
very hard is difficult of digestion, except by
those with stout stomachs; such eggs should
be beaten with bread and masticated very 6ne-
ly. An excellent sandwich can be made with
eggs and brown bread. An egg spread on toast
is food fit for king, if kings deserve any bet
ter food than anybody else, which is doubtful
Fried eggs are less wholesome than boiled
ones. An egg dropped into hot water is moi
only clean and handsome but delicious NOR.
sci. Most people spoil the taste of their eggs
by adding pepper and salt. A little sweet but
ter is the best dressing. Eggs contain much
phosphorus, which is supposed to be useful tC

Exercise and Grain for Horses.

Very many farmers who own good horses do
not appreciate the importance of little grain,
and giving them regular exercise in winter.
At this season of the year farmers horses are
frequently left to stand in the stable for weeks
at time, eating unlimited quantities of hay,
and when taken out submitted to violent exer-
else with their stomachs overloaded with un
digested hay. A year or two Of this manage
ment is almost certain to bring on heaves, an
incurable disease that very seriously depreci
ates horse for work and ruins him for mar
ket. The horse has comparatively a smaller
stomach than any other animal, and never
should be driven hard Immediately after eat
ing heartily of hay or after drinking, as it is
certain to cause permanent injury that will
develop itself in time.
It is not economy to keep horses through the
winter without any grain. With little grain
every day, and one-half the hay that most
farmers feed, horses will come out of the win
ter much better fitted for the springs work
than when the grain is omitted, and the saw
ing in hay at present prices will nearly, if not
quite, pay for the grain.
There is not sufficient strength in hay to
support the muscles of the horse, and if fed on
it alone for long time there is certain to be a
great falling off of the muscle strength, al
though the usual amount of flesh may be re-
tanned. Corn in the ear, if sound and we'll
cured, is good grain for horses in cold weather,
as it is heating and of sufficient strength when
they are not at hard work; shelled corn is not
a safe feed, as it is very liable to have been
heated and is almost invariably dusty. For
several weeks previous to the commencement
of hard work, oats should be the grain fed, as
there is no other grain that contains so much
understanding element, and they are cool
ing to the blood An occasional feed of roots,
either carrots, parsnips or potatoes 1--WE prefer
the former), to horses during the winter is of
great value. Another important item is salt !;
a small feed of this at least three times week
should not be omitted. Many of our best prac-
teal horsemen keep salt before their horses
constantly, and recommend it in strong terms.

BONE FELoN.-The London Lancet, suggests
the following simple treatment: As soon as

ton of which time, directly under the surface
of the blister, may be seen the felon, which can
instantly be taken out with the point of Ian
