flesh, refused to eat hay and presented sckly
appearance. He had no impression that their
food lacked the constituents for making bone !;
and his neighbors used bone meal without no
ticirg any good results whatever. At last, ne
put about four bushels of leached ashes 10 bis
barnyard, aud threw out to them about shovel
full each day. They all ate with evident rellsh'
Aft or turning them out to pasture, he put one
peck of dry ashes per week on the ground 10
the pasture. They ate it all, aud gnawed OF the
grass where it had been lying. The cattle, be-
gan to improve, gaining fash and looking bet
ter than they had for several years. lie says
this morbid appearance was unnoticed years
ago. from the fac. that the ground was new and
