AGRICULTURE.

FEEDING CoLTs.-To feed oats to colts
in winter some farmers think is injuri-
Gus. 1t is objected that grain of any
kind is too stimulating for young ami
mails, and that they will grow up more
hardy if kept on scanty feed. L regard
this as an error. The usual food OF an
animal including gram is not stimulat-
ing. Were that the case there would
be no question as to the impropriety of
allowing grain to your horses or other
animals. Grain contains more nutri-
ment than the same bulk of straw or
hay. If fed in large quantities to one
not worked sufficiently to keep the di-
gestive powers very active, the stomach
and other organs will be impaired and
the health of the animal will be injured.
But given judiciously, grain promotes
the growth and strength of horses
either young or old. 1 think the pro-
per way to harden an animal is not to
cramp the growth of its organs but to
develop them to the fullest extent, and
nutritious food is indispensable TO this
end. Some of the best horsemen allow
a small quantity of oats or corn TO colts
as soon as they will eat them-from a
quart to two quarts per day during the
first winter, and more liberal allow
ance the following year, increasing the
quantity gradually. Oats are prefera-
able, as corn from its oily nature pre-
disposes TO inflammatory diseases. This
treatment will amply repay the owner
in the quality of bone and muscle
which the animal will form and in the
increased size, and beauty, and stamina
which will be his characteristics when
he is growing toward maturity. A
colt cared for in this way will be at two
years old the equal of three-year old,
allowed TO take his chances without
any food but that furnished by his dam
from her ordinary commons, or picked
up by himself in his summer pasture or
winter straw yard.

REV. DR.. JErER, a distinguished
Baptist clergyman of Richmond, Va,
has voice whose characteristic tone is
mournful falsetto. The doctor tells
this story about that voice:
Many years ago, an artless stranger,
whom l casually met, said to me, 81
hear you preach every Sunday. You
are the greatest preacher ever 1 did
hear"
''Ah," said 1, "you have not, 1 sup
pose, heard Mr.. Nj preach" At
that time, Mr.. NJ was attracting
great attention by his sermons
YES" he replied, "I have heard
Mr.. Al several times. He Is a
great preacher, but he is not so great a
preacher as you are. You have the
mournfullest voice of any man l ever
did hear"

FATTENING TURKEYs.-An old turkey
raiser gives the following experiment:
Four turkeys were confined in pen
and fed on meal, boiled potatoes and
oats. Four Others of the same brood
were also at the same time confined in
another pen, and fed daily on the same
article. but with one pint of very finely
pulverized charcoal mixed with their
food-mixed meal and boiled potatoes.
They had also a plentiful supply of
broken charcoal in their pen. The
eight were killed on the same day, and
there was difference of one and half
pounds each in favor of the fowls which
had been supplied with charcoal, they
being much the latest, and the meat
being greatly superior in point of ten
derness and flavor.

IRISH WTT.-Plunket, an Irish law
yer, whose eloquence and ability made
him leader in Parliament, was noted
for his caustic wit. A witness who,
though very ready to reply to the ques-
tions on the direct examination, was by
no means SO when cross-examined, was
taunted by Plunket with this.
The excuse made by the witness, ,"The
counsellor's questions put him in a
doldram." The judge, Chief Baron
Lord Avonmore, repeated the words,
"A doldruml What is that?"
"I can tell your lordship," said
Plunket, ga doldrnm is confusion OF
the head arising from corruption Of the
hsdrt.'
An acquaintance of Plunket's, who
was not remarkable for his brilliancy,
was said to have foretold an event. II
always knew he was BORE" replied
Plunket, "but | did not know hs was
an dugur."

FARM LIFE.-Teach your boys that in
farmers something more than muscle
and physical endurance is required;
that indeed, agriculture is a science or
art that should be conducted according
to clearly defined laws and well-estab-
lished principles, and successful in pro
portion to the intelligence that directs
it

WHEN sheep refuse to eat, became
weak in their legs and the wool COM
mence falling off, it is sign OF worms
In the head. These worms are carried
by fly that lays its eggs in the nostrils
In the summer, but the worms do not
give troubleuntil in thewinter or spring.
They can be destroyed and the sheep
cured by pouring into the nostrils tea
spoonful of turpentine and olive oil.
Another remedy is 10 inject into the
nostriIs dry snuff, three or four times
at intervals of day or two. The snutf
can be blown into the nostrils with
Quill.

HAY and oats make the best feed for
horses that are obliged to work hard
and regularly. If the hay is cut and the
oats bruised or ground, the whole mix
ed or moistened, the horse will eat his
rations quicker, digest them sooner, and
thus have more time for resting and re-
newing his power for labor. Farmers
horses that work little during the win
ter may be kept cheaper by cutting and
mixing bright straw and hay in equal
quantities, and adding ration of steam
ed potatoes or raw carrots.

A CURE FOR GALLs.-Somebody sends
to the EImiIa Farmers club the fol-
lowing cure for gals on the shoulders
of draught animals, which he says is
the best he ever used: Dissolve six
drachms of iodine in half pint Of alcO-
hol, and apply it on the sore with a
feather as soon as the collar is removed,
and when at rest, twice day, morning
and evening, The article should be in
the stable of every farmer, as it is an ex-
cellent application on horses where the
skin is broken bykIcks or other accidents
and is a sure cure for splints, if used in
proper manner.
