ROOTS FOR STOCK FEED.

Roots have become Il necessity, with pro-
gressive farmers. as a winter food for stock.
and their great value in this connection
should commend them to those who have
not essayed their cultivation. Even the
owners of work and driving horses in the
large cities, where no opportunity is had to
raise them, annually buy hundreds of BUSH
els of carrots. lnangel wurzels, turnips. etc.,
to lie fed in connection with grain iood to
their horses, aaa they are well assured of
the protitableness of using them, for the an
finals are always sleek, fat, and glossy in
appearance. and never become hide-bound
or sickly. The sheep, cattle and swine,
too, come in for a share of the roots in Win
ter. and no farmer who has Il right to be
called one should think of neglecting the
cultivation of roots for his different kinds OF
stock.-Rual World.

DIET FOE THICK WINDED HORSES.

A favorite carriage horse, eleven years
old. in good condition, is somewhat touched
in his wind. For a short time he has been
getting oat straw instead of hay, by which
he has some relief. Would you advise con
tinuing straw? If SO, whether should oa
straw or wheat straw be given. Would you
also kindly say what other feeding he
should get. Your answer will greatly
oblige. Answer.-Your old f~avorite, we
presumey is thick in his ~wind-blows when
pressed quickly up hill or with Il heavy
load; his wheeling aud short breathing are
noticeable both in inspiration. and expira-
ton; he shows his imperfection chiefly
when worked immediately after a full meal
or in thick muggy weather. This condi-
ton somewhat resembles asthma in human
patients; it is connected with, and often
brought on by, gastric arrangement, such
as overlooking the stomach and eating indl-
gestible fare. Free allowances of musty
hay often produce it, and occasionally it re-
suits from a single greedily devoured meal
of wheat or barley. When fairly estab-
lisheti 1t is in%curable, but may usually be
held in check, ard, by strict attention to lii

PIGS IN WINTER.

Though the farmer needs to keep pigs
during the winter, he ought not to expect
great returns from them unless he feeds
comfortable pens. For the season, in it.
sell considered, is decidedly untavorable eli
ther tor the growth or fattening OF pigs.
When kept in ordinary pens a large proper
tlon.oi the food which pigs consume during
the winter months, is used merely for fuel.
The only purpose. as tar us the animals are
concerned, which it serves is to keep them
warm. 10 do nothing but this during one
of our long, cold seasons, requires a great
deal of food, and food Of good quality.
But by keeping the pigs in a warm pen the
quantity Of food required for this purpose
can be considerably reduced. Either the
pigs which are kept in warm pens will not
eat as much food as they would ii kept in
colder ones, or else they will grow and fat
ten more rapidly. If the same quantity OF
food is consumed it is used more economi-
cally. Instead of merely keeping the ami
mails warm it makes them grow and thus
yield a profit to their owner.
We can assure our readers of the Di,iqo
Ru'ul that as far as they will go, boards are
much cheaper than meal, and if properly
used, they can be made to take its place to
quite an extent. We know of pens upon
which a few boards and some close fitting
doors would be the means of saving MANY
bushels of meal during the winter. 1t IS
not only cheaper to keep pigs warm by Civ
ing comfortable pens, than it is by furnish
ing an extra quantity Of food, but it is also
better tor them.
Provision must be made for ventilation
but aside from this the pig pen should be as
boarded us a house. 1t should also
be kept clean during the cold. weather and
pigs should have plenty of straw. The
more comfortable the pigs are kept the bet
ter they will thrive, and the greater the
with which they can Use their
In cold pens q large part of the food
is used for fuel. In warm pens much off
goes to promote growth, and carry on the
process. There can be no ques-
ton rs to which is the mos: profitable
in which it can be used.-Diriqo

CREATING FLOW OF MILK.

A very current impress sion is that any
COW may be made to give not only an in
creased flow of milk, 10y extra and rich feed,
but that the quality OF the milk, will be in
direct proportion to the richness Of the food
given. Neither of these propositions are
founded in fact, except to a certain degree.
The facts i'll the case may be stated thus:
A COW which gives poor milk naturally can
not be made TO give rich milk by superior
feeling. The quality indeed may be in
creased to some extent, but not to a consid-
cradle degree. The quantity, however,
may be increased in any animal, somewhat
in proportion to the value of the food given,
or rather, up to a certain limit. Ii care be
taken that the animal be kept warm, and it
be supplied with plenty water, the flow of
milk Will be increased to the limit to which
the animal economy is capable. just here
the question OF breed come in. II.
Certain breeds secrete milk moderately
but very rich in quality, while others giyea
large flow, bat not SO rich in fat. OF these
the Jerseys may be taken as the type of the
one class, and the Holsteins as the type OF
the other class. The milk of neither the.
Jerseys or the Holsteins can be increased in
richness beyond Il certain standard, but the
flow of each may be increased by special
TODD, with plenty of water. Indeed, the ca
pability Of the animal for milk, is i'm Il great
measure, in proportion to the water drank. |
A COW which is a light drinker will not give
a great flow of milk. Hence dairymen and
others use every endeavor to increase the
supply Of water taken, by giving sloppy
food, a due quantity of salt, and such other
means us may present themselve. Some
give tepid water in winter. This is a very
common sense proceeding, since thereby
the animal will often take more than il the
water was cold. Stop should always be fed
warm, since this and tepid water prevents
the COW from becoming chilled.
Whatever may be the economy of feeding
whole corn to fattening cattle in the West.
mich cows, besides the hay they get, should
be ted only on ground teed. In fattelling
tor beef, the waste is generally consumed by
hogs, and although the steer does not gain
90 fast, there is saving in the cost of feeding.
WIN mich cows the case is different. The
animal may be regarded as a machine to
convert the food given at once into milk and
outer. The feeder cannon afford to stable
ina care for cows, and then, so feed as to |,
'ose nifty per cent. of the food given, even
'longh the hogs may get the waste. since
care necessary to keep the cows is the
'ame III the one ease as in the other. Nei

He was in love with the girl. but, for
some unaccountable reason, she did not re-
ciprocate the affection. To make the mat
ter worse, he was despitefully hated by her
parents. 10 secure her. he started stories
about her which were everything but flat
terlng in their character. In the course of
time, her father heard of these stories and
wrote the lover an invitation to call and
see him. All alive with anticipation OF the
blissful future. he started for the home of
his adOred, fully confident that her PARENTS
had agreed to let him marry the girl and
prevent scandal in the family. When he
arrived. however, he was cornered by the
father Of his loved one who started for him
with butcher-knife. BY good luck. he
succeeded in evading the attack and started
for the brush as fast as his legs could carry
him. The young lady, when she saw her
adnirer making his escape. picked up
Winchester rifle and fired three or four
shots at him, making him jump higher,
yell louder, and run faster than he ever did
in his life before. He now resides in Emil
grant Gulch, and will not likely circulate
villainous stories about young ladies for
some time to come, or ut least, until he
gets over his scare or finds a less deter
mined young lady to impose upon. The
heroine of this romance resides with her
parents at Cages, on the Yellowstone,
where this scene is reported to have taken
place,

Frederick Reimer Frozen to Death.
We condense the following from the
Madisonian:
Frederick Reimer and Paul Laroux lef,
the Madison Basin in small boat and at
tempted to come through the canyon,
about three miles. Before getting through,
the boat upset by running on an ice-bound
rock, precipitating both men, together
with all their provisions, blankets, arms,
ETC., into the water.
After series of dangerous encounters
tile men succeeded in reaching the shore,
and started for the Madison valley. In the
language of Laroux, this took place when
the sun was about an hour high. "We
were nearly frozen, our clothes being al
ready frozen stiff. We managed to wiring
out our socks, but our boots would fill up
again from dripping. We kept moving,
and by dark we were out Of the canyon.
1 took the lead, and after walking some
two or three miles further, found Fred.
was falling behind. went to him, and he
complained of being hungry and weak.
then took him by the arm and led him; he
bore heavily at times. then got him two
sticks to use as canes; he used these for a
while, but finally threw one away, and said
if would hold the end OF the other, to
steady him, he could make out. In this
way we went some distance further. but
he failed fast in his legs and knees. We
came to small creek, and asked him il
he could step over it. He thought he
could, but when he attempted it. he fell
forward, and 1 caught him. We were go
ing SO slow that was getting colder, but
he wanted to rest. Itold him the danger,
and urged him to keep moving. 1 saw
that at the rate we were going we would
both be gone, and told him had better go
for help. He said, Yes; and bring a
horse and some grub l then started for
The valley. 1t was pretty dark now, but
by the light OF the moon could see to
travel'
Laroux arrived at the residence OF w.
F. Kirkwood the next morning, and a
young man at that place returned with him
to find Reimer. He had travelled about
fifty O. one hundred yards from where
Laroux had left him, and then either fallen
or had lain down on his back and died, ap-
parently without a struggle. He was TAX
en- to KirkwOod's, and buried in the Madi-
son valley OH the 18th inst.
