The farm aud fireside.
VARIETY OF DIET IN FEEDING STOCK.

Feeders have often observed that horses
most carefully provided for, and supposed to
be daintily fed, will occasionally eat straw,
even their bedding, in preference to the timo-
thy hay in their racks 1t is not difficult to
account for this. The straw possesses quail
ties that hay does not, and is change from
the monotonous ration of timothy and oats, so
universally fed to the best horses. This ra-
ton is excellent-nothing is better, if you can
only have one kind of grain and hay-but
the horse, like his master, does not like to be
confined to two articles of food. When the
horse feeds upon the straw, he suggests an i'm
portant lesson his owner should learn, that
every kind of feed raised upon the farm has
its value, and should be turned to account.
Some years since we tried an experiment in
wintering several colts, feeding half of them
upon straw and clover hay, mixed in equal
bulks of each, and timothy hay alone to the
others. The result of four months feeding
showed, in the condition of the colts, that
the mixture of straw and clover was quite
equal to the timothy. But we have found
that mixture of clover straw, and timothy
produced still better result. This is true OF
cattle or sheep. Give the greatest variety
you possess. If you have three or four kinds
of hay, and several kinds of straw, feed one
kind of hay mixed with one kind of straw for
a few days and then change to another mix
ture, going through the whole variety. You
will find your efforts appreciated by the stock,
and that you grow nothing on the farm that
will not be eaten, with pleasant recognition
of your judgment, if given Systematically as
change. Let more than one kind be given
each day. That plan of feeding the straw
out in cold weather alone, and saving the hay
till spring, is putting off your variety till the
cattle get discouraged, often 60 into decline,
and are not prepared to appreciate the hay
when it comes The rule should be to combine
the most palatable with the least so, having
reference also to the nutritive constituents Of
each, so far as practicable.-Erchange.

WHEN TO EAT.

DR.. Austin Flint, distinguished physician
and Psychologist, does not believe in the old
rule, "Rise from the table before the hunger
is fully satisfied" On the contrary, he holds
it to be an erroneous maxim.
1t has been said we must "eat to live, and
not live to eat" But almentation is more than
necessity we must eat for something more
than life, mere existence. We must eat to
secure the full advantages of health, both of
body and mind. The child often consumes
more food than the adult man; the indolent
more than the active worker. The average
quantity required at any age cannot be a
standard for any individual.
There are two sources of practical knowl-
edge in regard to food one is the instinct i'm.
planted in the individual, the second is the
individual experience, Of the two, the first
is The more trustworthy,
Extreme hunger denotes an abnormal con-
dition, while appetite denotes a normal mani
festation of the needs of the system. The
complete requirements Of health are that the
desire for food be needed without delay, and
that this desire be fully satisfied.
The maxim that one should rise from the
table with a good appetite is full Of error.
Another prevalent error is that food should
not be taken except at certain fixed times.
The conditions of perfect health are First,
a sufficient appetite; second, the qualification
of normal appetite before the want Of food
reaches the abnormal degree expressed by
hunger; third, the satisfaction of appetite by
a proper amount of food
i DR.. Flint indorses the remarks of country
physician ninety years old, who said, II have
always eaten when wanted, ana the best
could get." -.
A great many dyspeptics had been made by
attending lectures on health. 1t was pop.
ular error to suppose that the chief end of
man is to watch the progress Of digestion
From four to six hours only should elapse be-
tween each meal. Some writer has said
"The stomach is like schoolboy if not kept
we'll occupied, it is apt to be in mischief"
HYDRopHoBiA.-Ata recent meeting OF
the Liberal Club, of New York, paper on
hydrophobia was read by George Will John
son. The following is an extract:
"A genuine case of hydrophobia, even in
the dog, is of rare occurrence: but when
the disease does manifest ITSELF its symptom:

COTTON SEED OIL.

The New York Bulletin states that "cotton
seed oil has, for some time past, figured con.
spicuously among our prominent articles of
commerce, on account of the valuable uses 1t
is made to serve. The cake is exported large
ly, and the refined oil is growing in impor-
lance as a substitute for palm oil for sapo-
naceous purpose in this country and abroad ;
and, in addition to this, it is shipped in con-
siderable quantities to Mediterranean ports,
and, after a little doctoring, reshipped here as
the olive oil of commerce, to no little extent.
Numerous unsuccessful attempts have been
made to give the oil the necessary qualities
as drying oil for painters use, but never
theless, experiments have continued, and now,
a party residing at Capeville, near Memphis,
Tennessee, announces that the desideratum
has been reached.
He states that he has discovered compar-
atively non-expsnsive preparation by which
the cotton seed oil can be made equal to lin
seed oil for this purpose, and cites an instance
where house was painted, some eight months
ago, with cotton seed oil, as substitute for
linseed oil, on which the paint is as bright
now as on the day it was applied. The pro-
cess discovered makes the cotton seed oil
dry oil for house painting that is said to have
no superior. 1t now rem ) to have trial
of it in the different climates, and, in the
event of its success, cotton planters will find
a material addition to the value of their seed,
while to consumers there will no doubt be
considerable saving, as a very heavy duty has
to be paid on Calcutta linseed, from which
the best grades of linseed oil are crushed The
greatest saving, however, will be in the South
ern States, as large sums are spent annually in
our Northern markets for linseed oil for use
a that quarter. Then there is a possibility
for further outlet. Large quantities of lin
seed are exported from this country, and if
cotton seed oil can be made of desirable quail
ity, the cheapness of price will do the rest.

1T WASN'T THE TOOTHACHE.

In the ladies' waiting-room at the Central
depot. the other day, were newly-married
couple from Grass Lake. They had been
visiting in the city for two or three days, and
were then ready to 60 home. They sat side
by side, of course-his arm around her waist
and she leaning on his shoulder.
A long-waisted stranger from the East
having sore eyes and big heart, walked in,
saw them thus seated, and in about minute
asked of the husband:
"Has that woman there got the toothache p
The husband looked up with surprise, but
made no answer.
After two or three minutes, the long waist.
ed man again remarked:
eff that woman has got the toothache, I've
got bottle of peppermint in my sachel
here"
The bride rolled her big white eyes around,
and the husband looked somewhat embarrass'
ed."
The man from down East unlocked his
sachel, fumbled among some shirts and col
lars, and brought up four ounces of pepper,
mint essence. He uncorked it, touched the
contents of the bottle against his big red
tongue, and, handing it forward toward the
husband, feelingly said:
"Just have her sop some on rag, and rub
her gooms with it. We've used it in our
family for"
The brides eyes threw out sparks as she
lifted her head from its loving position, and,
striking at the bottle, she snarled out:
"Tuthache, you fule! If you don't know
the difference tween true love and the tuth-
ache, you'd better pick grass with the geese!'
"Goodness" gasped the man and he hur'
ried out, with his sachel in one hand and the
hottie in the other.

We begin the day unwisely, and at great risk

secret conference with our Almighty Friend.
Every Christian, when he puts on his clothes
should also put on his spiritual armor. BE-
fore the days march begins, he should gather
