The Lire Stock; journal has a cores
pondent who found his cattle given to the
habit Of eating wood, chewing bones, etc.
They became thin 10 flesh, refused to eat
hay, and presented sickiy appearance.
lie had no impression that their food
lacked the constituents for making bone.
and his neighbors use bone meal without
noticing any good results whatever. At
last he put about four bushels of leached
ashes in his barn yard and thew out to
them about shovelfnl each day. They
all ate with evident relish. After turning
them ont to pasture, he put one peck Of
dry ashes per week on the ground in the
pasture. They ate il all, and gnawed of
the grass where It had been lying. The
cattle began to improve, gaining flesh and
looking better than they had done for
several years. He says this morbid ap-
pearance was unnoticed years ago, from
the fact that the ground was new and ashy
from the burning Of the woods and land
cleariugs. Since this discovery he gives
one quart of ashes mixed with one quart
Of salt to twelve head Of cattle about once
week.

VALUE or AGRICULTURAL PUBLlcA-
TIoNs. We have at the present day many
judieiously conducted periodicals, and no
farmer who has a proper pride in bis pro-
fession but takes one Or more agricultural
papers. These productions from practical
farmers amuse, interest and instruct They
excite US to increased exertion inspire US
with confidence in undertakings which
otherwise would be abandoned upon the
first failure give US plans the most ap-
proved for all our farm buildings make
suggestions which are often Of the greatest
Importance; indeed they act as "a friend IN
need as a proper counsellor, a judieious
adviser. The farmer must obtain all Che
Information possible by reading, aud then
reflect, reason, decide and practice IN ae-
eordance with his best judgment.

This Is one Of cur valuable esculents,
and if properly taken care of, can be kept
the whole year in good condition, but, like
everything else that is valuable, il requires
some care and pains-taking. Once attend
ed to, however, there is no trouble about
them. We remember once, when boy,
to have seen bank Of them, in the spring
of the year, that had been put up the pre-
vious fall, that was as sound and dry as
when put up They were put up in The
following manner A quantity of perfect
" dry soil had been procured, and the
potatoes had been put up by putting in a
layer Of potatoes and then a layer az dry
soil, until a large bank had been made
the bank was then covered over with the
same kind Of dry soil, some two or three
inches thick, sufficient to keep them from
freezing during the winter, and the bank
then covered with board shelter
We also know Of another instance Of
planter that raises them in large quaint
ties, and keeps them the year roundin the
following manner HE has a basement
room, or cellar, under his house, bricked
up and provided with proper ventilation,
In the fall heprocures sufficient quantity
of common sand, which he suns on seat
fold until sufficiently dry. When he digs
his potatoes he puts them in his cellar, but
putting alternately layer Of sand and
layer Of potatoes, until they are all put
away, after which he has no more trouble
with them He informed US, however,
that on one occasion he did not have quite
enough Of the dry sand to put up ali he
desired, and hence used little sand with
one lot that was not quite dry, and in
short time that lot Of potatoes all rOtted;
but he assured us that If the sand is en-
finely dry they keep perfectly sound and
good for an indefinite length of time, and
viii all the time be as dry, sound and mealy
as they were in the depth Of winter

EXERCISE CoLTs.-To begin with, let
Il il be remarked that colts need great
deal 81 exercise BY nature they were
made for rapid movement. Like young
birds, they develop IN motion. Many
most promising youngsters are fatally
checked in the development Of their pow
srs BY laek Of needed exercise IN their
second and third years. / hold that a colt
needs great deal Of exercise; not to the
halter, which Is good for nothing but to
sweat out lazy groom, but sharp, quick
exercise, in the taking Of which every
muscle Is brought Into play, every joint
tested, and every vein, however small,

There is trouble in the house Of Bum-
per. Bumper is an uptown man, he is.
He went home the other night with his
whisky bottle newly filled, and knowing
Mrs. Bumpers peculiar notions about
these things he considerably slid the bot
tie into the friendly pocket of an old coat
that hung up in the wood shed. The
coat had long ago seen its best days but
still did service for Bumper to milk in
and do other chores around the barn.
Therefore, he thought it safe place for
his gin, and whenever he went out
to do the chores he could
solace himself with quiet
"nip" and yet not excite the eccentric
prejudices of Mrs. Bumper. 1t must be
