TAKING good care of stock means, in a
general way, making the animals COM
| Portable. That is about all there is of it.
| To be successful in feeding stock man
| must become interested; the work must
| be pleasure, not task; the person
must be quick to apprehend the wants
of the animals, and prompt in supplying
them. A laundering, needless man has
no business among stock. D.
| THE codling moth is one of the great
est pests the orchardist has to contend
| with. nr. E. S. Thell gives the follow
! ing preventive 1.-TWO quarts salt dis
! solved in water and boiled. Slack peck
| of lime in it while hot and reduce the
lime thereby to dry powder. Apply
with sitter, or better with grape bel

| CRACKED HEELS, according to Lind and
| Water, often arise from arrangement
| of the digestive organs, and in many
cases may be easily cured by giving the
| horse few carrots and keeping the
sores free from dirt. A good liniment to
use is glycerine, four ounces; iodide of
potassium, two drachms Grease or oil
| should be avoided. A little sulphur
say half an ounce-and about a scruple
of iodide of sulphur may be given daily
mixed with the food.

about three tablespoonfuls of boiling
water in the bottom of the pan set it in
a very hot, but not burning, oven. As

escape allow the oven to cool to a mod
crate degree of heat. Basic the beef
frequently with its own dripping From
four to four and half hours in a first

be at once juicy and done. Too many
cooks mistake raw beef for rare 1t re
