Keeping the Head Clean.

Many persons find speedy relief for
nervous headache by washing the hair
thoroughly in weak soda water. L have
known severe cases almost wholly cured
in ten minutes by this simple remedy.
A friend finds it the greatest relief in
cases of "rarecold'' the cold symptoms
entirely leaving the eyes and nose after
one thorough washing for the hair. The
hair should be thoroughly dried after
wards and avoid draughts of air for a
little while.

Hay for Hogs.

But few men says the Nebraska Farm
err, are aware of the fact that hay is very
beneficial to hogs, but it is true, never
theless. Hogs need rough food as
well as horses, cattle or the human race.
To prepare it you should have cutting
box (or hay cutter9, and the greener the
hay the better. Cut the hay very short
and mix with bran, shorts or middlings,
and feed as other food. Hogs soon learn
to like it, and if soaked in swill as other
slop food, is highly relished by them.
In winter, use for the hogs the Same
hay you feed to your horses, and you
will find that while it saves bran, shorts
or other food, it puts on flesh as rapidly
as anything that can be given them.

What not TO Kill.

The French Minister of Finance has
done a good deed in causing placard to
be posted, which it would be wise for
citizens of all countries to have before
their eyes. 1t tells farmers, sportsmen,
boys and others, what creatures not to
kill, as follows:
Hedge hog-Lives mostly on mice,
small rodents, slugs and grubs-animals
hurtful to agriculture. Don't kill the
hedge hog.
Toad Farm assistant; he destroys
twenty to thirty insects per hour. Don't
kill the toad.
Mole-Is continually destroying grub,
Larvae, palmer worms and insects injuri-
GUS to agriculture. No trace of vegeta-
ton is ever found in its stomach. Don't
kill the mole.
Birds-Each department loses several
millions annually through insects. Birds
are the only enemies able to contend
against them vigorously. They are the
great caterpillar killers, and agricultural
assistants. Children, don't disturb their
nests.
Lady -bird-Never destroy for they are
the best friends of farmers and horticul-
turists, and their presence upon aphis
ridden plants is beneficial.
