"A correspondent of an exchang
says; of the crown in cattle is high up
it is an Indication of quiet and mil
disposition. have seen cattle with tn
crown two or three inches above the lin
of the eyes, and others two or thre
inches below. Thirty years experienc
has confirmed me in the belief of tn
correctness of this test, although it ma
not be infallible. tits generally believe
to be correct by all who have observe
it. 1t applies equally as we'll to cows a
to oxen, would not buy cattle wit
the crowns two or three inches below th
eyes on any consideration"
AS the weather gets colder fowls AZ
cut off from many insects, fruits, seeds
etc. To compensate for this it is necei
sary to supply your birds with an equiv
alent in nice bits. This can often b
done with scraps from the table, leave
of vegetables, etc. This is especial
required if fowls are limited to a sma
run, for though every one who keeT
fowls may not own five-acre lot fc
them to run in, yet he can keep them
health and with profit to himself by gil
ing them proper attention. When tow
are supplied with the change of foo
they require they seldom peck off eac
others feathers, but if they once, con
mence, it is very hard to break them c
such habit. Pieces from the table al
used with more profit to feed poultr
than pigs, and they supply that var
ETY. which nature requires.-RuraI Ne
