As the new year opens before us, we may well
pause for q moment, before confronting the grave
responsibilities it brings to US, to give a thought
OF grateful recognition to the Divine Hand that
has led our State safety and prospelously through
the wear that has closed. While nature has been
beniPpant in bestowing healthful seasons and
abundant crops and in Withholding her destruc-
tive agencies, the Influences that affect the com
peV relations of individuals and society to csch
other have all been tending to the improved con-
dtions of both. However slow THEN action NAV
appear, the forces at work that will attach our
people more strongly TO their State, restore the
activities Of industry and trade, give plentiful oc-
cupatIon to labor, tenant deserted homestoads,
and cause new homes to arise on our sol. | do
not use the language of thoughtless compliment 10

State have been faithfully administered during
the year. Every depa tment and Institution has

CARE OF HORSES.

Horses kept in stalls and not doing much
work, should be regularly cleaned and fed.
Some farmers seems to think that unless a
horse is to be taken out to work he does not
need cleaning. Such a man to be consistent,
ought not to wash himself unless he is 60
ing to town! We feed our horses one bush
ell of chopped straw (say eight pounds),
moistened with water and mixed with two
quarts of corn meal, to each team, three
times a day. They are allowed straw in
their racks; but it is a good plan to take 1t
out Of the racks at say s o'clock in the
morning, and let them have no food before
them, until oon Then remove all that is
lett in the rack at 2 o'clock, and feed again
at night, letting them have all the straw
they will eat until morning. In this way,
horses that are standing in the stable will
eat much more heartily than if the food Is
before them all the time. If they are work
ing feed them a little more grain or hay. A
few rutabagas or carrots may be fed to the
horses with great advantage, say half a
bushel per day to each teatp.-En.

BREEDING AS A BUSINESS.

To be successful in breeding fine stock OF
any kind, the individual must have an accu-
rate knowledge of what constitutes value in
a breed, and in certain. families of a breed.
They must be well up in form, size, muscu-
lar development, aptitude to fatten or pro-
duce milk, as the case may be, or for what
the animals are wanted. Pedigree and its
relative bearing from generation to genera
ton must be taken into account. The
probable results of adding one particular
strain Of blood upon another must be stud
led. These are only a few of the requisites
to make a really successful breeder. 1t cam
not be learned in one, two, or five years,
but his Knowledge must be a growing one,
and evolved from changes, and new light
which is being constantly brought out must
be as constantly absorbed. For these rea-
sons it will be seen why the individual hav-
ing mere capital may not, as matter of
coul e, succeed any more than in general
agriculture or other business requiring ex-
act q ! until he understands the profession.
The earring Of fine cattle is high art, just
as high farming Is. In other words the
pros. sntor must learn the trade.
How to do this Is the question. II the In
divid ,al has a talent for the profession, 1t Is

in the ewes of many buyers, which no re-
cent disappointments could entirely allay.
The glowing statements which dalrymen
and dealers now and then make SO much OF,
viz. that a certain COW when fresh, once
gave % or 80 quarts Of milk a day, or Is or
20 pounds of butter per week, on a certain
trial. are more or less delusivc. They may
be true, and yet the very extreme OF the
truth. An extra large yield of milk may
be truthtully recorded, for a single day by
milking the last time ct an unusually llate
hour; and an extraordinary butter yield
for a single, week may; be obtained py art
fully crowding three or -four churnings INTO
it instead. of two, the preceding and the sub
sequent week being each drawn upon for
this purpose. The merit OF 81 really good
cow consists not in..what she will do through
q long series of weeks or months, or even
years. 1t is her staying qualities to (which
the buyer should look. Find a COW, for In
STANCE, whose record shows indisputably
that she has given, say ten quarts eot milk
per day for a year, with little f1uctIuation as
to the extremes, or a pound of butter per
day for the same time, and then you will
have a cow to be proud of. If, on the 9TH
er hand, the record shows that the cow has
.seaten her head off, several times a year,
then if you WI such a prize you had better
dispose Of her for beef at the earliest mo-
ment; or if you do not own her avoid the
unhappy consequence. of placing yourselfin
that position.
First-class cows will often be sought for
by rich buyers at prices, which will pay one
to take, even though these COWS may be
paying we'll to keep. Good ones, poorly
treated, may be bought in their places at
cheap rates, and greatly improved by judi
cious treatment. But in any case keep a
record, sell on Its merits and buy on its
merits, and then some financial dangers
will be avoided. Ittis a positive test, while
to Judge by the ''esGutcheon." the length
and shape of her horns, the size of the milk
vein, or any other physical conformation, is
more or less delusiYe.-cor. Country Gastle-

not difficult. It is to be obtained by read
ing those journals which, discarding mere
theory, present the practical. Commence
with a few individuals and get these from
reputable breeders. Decide upon the line
of breeding you intend to pursue, and stick
to it. This, with the reading you will get
from week to week and from month to
month with the cultivation of ordinary sa-
gacity, should enable any n in time to be-
come an expert.-Rural World.

BUTTER THAT WILL NOT COME.

My servants for the last fortnight have
been unable to make the butter come. Can
any information On this point be afforded?
The cows are in good heritage, and in good
conditional. L. A. Usually the placing
of a small piece of fresh butter in the chnrn
will cause the globules to gather and the
butter, to come. Ii that fails, the best way
is to place the cream in a vessel, and put
that vessel in another containing hot water,
on top of a stove. Bring the cream to q
temperature OF about so degrees; then churn.
This latter method was recommended by
one of our correspondents a year a~go.-Gen-
ada Farmer.

SELECTING DAIRY COWS.

Buyers of COWS are often deceived in max
ing purchases tor dairy purposes, and in
many cases they have only themselves to
blame. A COW is not like a horse, whose
merits-or want of merits-require, in many
cases, {. good deal of time to prove them.
Her milk. and butter producing qualities
Gan. soon be made apparent, and the seller
who canno give reliable facts and figures
on these points, and is unwilling to sell on
trial-the price, to depend on the test-had
better be allowed to keep his stock until he
learns that guesses, OF, yields OF ''about' so
much, have no comQmmeeEE9eial, value,
Let the buyer select his cow or cows,
choosing those which please his eye when
he has nothing better to depend upon, and
take them home, and feed them at first
somewhat in proportion to past treatment
If that can be ascertained. | mean-do
not feed high too suddenly; past poor feed
ing may have untitled them tor immediate
high living, and so it should be approached
gradually. But weigh every milking and
every churping, and note them d~own-then
you have q collection Of facts before you,
and from them and the amount of feed CIV
en- you can easily 4deduce whether a cow
will pay at the price asked, and whether she
is .what she is. cracked up to be-" If from
different treatment to good feed, good
treatment and good shelter for a mouth or
two, the cow makes a steady gain, there is
much to hope regarding her but if the con-
trary, nothing. Take her back with thanks,
pay the forfeit, if any, and try again.
1t is certainly a matter for establishment
that those farmers who breed cows to sell,
or WHO buy them sometimes merely to sell
again. should not, if honest, keep IN hon.
est record of each cows yield, on which to
base their recommendations to customers.
1t is true that sometimes a record would
prove poor qualities rather than good ones,
but / think that quite as often it would be
the reverse. Most cow which now do de-
Gently well with very ordinary treatment,
would do vastly better with careful atten-
ton and feeding. The professional seller,
I think, would find an advantage in this
course, even with careless buyers, because
the glamour of a great reputation for a COW
would lead some persons to buy who would
not stop to reflect that such a reputation
could be maintained only by the most care
full attention to all the cows wants. An
old, broken down horse, which had in his
prime trotted his mile in 2:20 or less, would
always bring more than one with no record,
or whose best was seven or eight minutes.
So of COW the fact that she had once
done admirably, would give her attraction

SALT NECESSARY TO ANIMALS.

sALT NECESSARY TO ANIMALS.
The true value of salt for feeding to ami
mails is neither as we'll understood nor ap-
preclated as it should be by a large class OF
farmers, and the best mode Of feeding is too
frequently ignored, even when its lmpor-
lance is fully admitted. That 1t is actually
required by animals, IS shown by the
amount of salt contained in the blood of the
human species, it being fully one-halt OF one
per cent. and 573 per cent. of the ashes of
blood. Investigation has proved that where
salt is supplied with.the food, this proper
ton is invariable, and where not supplied,
other parts of the system must supply the
deficiency, to their injury. What is true of
the human species is equally true of our
farm stock and animals. which suffer the
same troubles, when deprived of salt. When
the equilibrium of any part is disturbed, the
whole system is weakened, and the animal
becomes liable to disease, and the system
succumbs when attacked.
Salt is a great aid to digestion, and the
natural instinct of animals prompts them to
its use, as is evinced by their resorting to
Sdlb HIM dit OlACA lAn4NidA. OOuASSS PAS
yious to and during the early settlement of
our country, and by what may be still wit
messed at the present day on the palmpas of
South America and other .Wilds, where herds
of horses and other cattle travel miles to OBJ
tain from natural sources a much needed
supply. 1t is an undoubted fact that where
animals nave unrestrained access to salt at
all times, many OF the ! diseases to which
they are liable are warded off and prevent
ed by keeping the system regular. We find
that when salt is regularly given them only
good results follow, as is evidenced in their
exemption from disease. Where free &C
cess is had to salt, stock will take only
what is needful, but where the supply is in
constant, a surfeit is often taken which fire.
quently operates in%juriously.
The invariable presence of salt in quanti-
ties in tissues of the body shows conclusive
ty the important influence which it exerts
in the production of flesh and fat In ami
mails. Salt assists digestion by increasing
the flow Of saliva, aiding also farther by
promoting thirst, and a constant flow of flu
ids, to assist in dissolving much of the food
which otherwise might be only imperfectly
digested. Actual experiments, carefully
conducted, have demonstrated that where
two hogs were fattened, one fed salt in its
food, and the other with salt excluded, the
one fed salt fatted very much faster, and in
several weeks less time. 1t exceeded in
weight by q considerable proportion the one
fed without salt in. its food. It is an UNI
questioned tact that eli our food products
contain q greater or less proportion of salt
in their structure, but that the animal econ
omy requires an additional quantity, is
equally true. Farm animals, when kept at
grass, or on green succulent feed, naturally
take more salt than when kept on dry fod-
der at least such has been my observation.
