CONTINUED DRoUTH.-In some sec
tions, perhaps most noticeably in
Southern Illinois, large numbers Of
farmers are disposing of nearly all
their live stock. 1t is possible how
ever that good may come from the
loss. this will certainly be true if
these farmers take pains to secure
better animals when they restock
their farms. With many exception
al cases, the more southern portion
of Illinois has deseryedly had q poor
reputation as regards cattle and hogs
To secure better animals will require
an outlay which many farmers will
be i'll fitted to make; but where it can
be done the improvement in quality,
and consequent improvement in price,
will repay the additional cost.
The wisdom, almost the absolute
necessity of providing some green
food for stock in addition to the pas
lures, has been more clearly shown
than perhaps ever before. And val
liable as other crops have proved,
this seasons experience has tended
to still further increase the apprecia-
ton of the value of corn as a soil
ing or green crop.

FEEDING YOUNG CoLTs. = Young
colts require grain the first year of
their lives at least. They need the
most nutritious food when weaned
from their mothers milk. The use of
cereals will prevent checking the
growth of young animals arising
from the sudden change of food. If
they are stinted in food at this juno
ture, they may never recover from it's
effects. Extra food and care in grow
ing young stock will be more than
paid for in early maturity and in
their future growth and development.
Well fed stock look robust and heal
thy. They put on an even develop
ment of carcass, and therefore become
more perfect in form than ill-fed
stock. Beautiful form is a measure
Of value. The starveling looks sickly
and emaciated, worn out with hunger

the next year, and are therefore out of
all proportion. They have not had

GROWING DEMAND FOR MEATS
English and American epicures re-
ject all except the most savory cuts
from the choicest portions of the car
cass of high bred steers. The de-
mand for this class of meats is rapid
ly increasing beyond all precedent or
expectation. Countries that former
ly used meat sparingly Switzerland
for example, now import about $4,000
annually more than they export.
This, of cattle alone, while large
amounts of American swine product
go that country. This is a mere
straw, but it points unerringly to the
fact that we are in our infancy in the
production of meats, and that in both
quality and quantity we are not like
ly to keep pace with their demand
npon us. If anyone has doubts about
this, he may as well dispel them and
move on with his Improvements with
vigor, because the purse of the buyer
is sure to open promptly for all high
bred aud well-fed meat producing
animals. In some foreign countries
the capacity of keeping cattle has
decreased, while the demand for meat
has materially increased. Our capac-
ity for keeping farm stock has mater
tally increased in larger degree and
we are very far from having reached
our limit. In view of the fact that
the future demand will inevitably be
very heavy, and will, year by year
increase, it speaks well for the grow
ing intelligence of our farmers that
but few are now found who use the
infancy" applying this to improv-
ed farm stock in the light of derision.
The constant discrimination made by
buyers and shippers agains low-bred
cattle, sheep and swine, has told upon
the perverseness of those farmers who
having been brought up in rut have
chung obstinately to it. There are
perhaps one-third of the whole
who yet require to be reached in the
matter of improvement, and three
fourths or more in the line of care
taking.

Cabbage is best given to poultry
whole hung up by the stalk. AT first
it may not be touched, but when one
fowl begins to pick at it the rest will
be tempted to keep on until little re-
mains. Being suspended it does not
waste or become polluted, and it will
remain in good condition to be eaten
at will.

Of all poultry breeding the rearing
of the goose is said to be the least

is not surprising therefore, that the
trade of late years has been enor-
mously developed. Geese will live

CHANGING CONDITIONS IN AMERICAN
FARMING.-It is not strange that year
by year the grain and live stock pro
ducts of our country increase faster
than does the population.
Until now, good markets have been
found for the surplus. Home mar
kets have been improved and new
foreign markets have been developed.
One of the most striking illustra-
tions of this is seen in the export of
meats. The quantity of preserved
meats sent to foreign countries is
enormously greater than it was q
few years since; and the new branch
Of export trade-that in fresh meat
and live animals-has already be-
come an important factor in the pros
perity of both American and British
farmers.
Thoughtful men look to the future
not without some anxiety. The ques-
ton is not an idle one-"Where are
the markets to be found for the sur
plus of American farm products if
they continue to increase as rapidly
as they have in the past?' OF course
the time is not very far distant when
all the available low priced laads of
this country will be under cultivation
and .he increase Of population will be
much less rapid. 1t is also true that
the home consumption promises to
increase even faster than in the past.
But even now, given a few years of
abundant harvests, both in this coun-
try and in Europe, and the problem
of the sale of all our surplus at pro-
fit would be very difficult one.

WEATHER AND WIsDoM.-When you
wish to know what the weather is to
be, 90 out and select the smallest
cloud you see. Keep your eye upon
it and if it decreases and disappears
it shows State of the air which is
sure to be followed by the weather;
but if it increases in size take your
great coat with you if you are going
from home, for falling weather is not
far off. The reason is this; When
the air is becoming charged with
electricity you will see every cloud
attracting all lesser ones toward it.,
until it gathers into shower; and
on the contrary when the fluid is
passing off, or diffusing itself then a
large cloud will be seen breaking it
self into pieces and dissolving.

PRESSED ORANGEs.-Take any
number of oranges, with rather
more than their weight in white
sugar. Slightly CRATE the oranges
and score them round with a knife
but not cut very deep. Put them
in cold water for three days, chang
ing the water two or three times a
day. Tie them up in cloth, boil
them until they are soft enough tor
the head of a pin to penetrate the
skin. While they are boiling,
place the sugar on the fire, with
rather more than halt a pint Of
water to each pound; let it boil for
minute or two. then strain it
through muslin. Put the oranges
into the syrup until it Jellies and
is of a yellow color. Try the
syrup by putting some to cool. II
must not be too stiff. The syrup
need not cover the oranges, but
they must be turned, so that each
part gets thoroughly done.

Working Butter.

The working OF butter is a mani
lation that requires the utmost skill,
for over~working destroys the grain
OF the product. and any notion OF
the worker that produces grinding
should be avoided, and to detect
this aud correct it, takes a quick
eye and steady hand. The chief
puapose in working butter is to
solidify it, and in the same time ex-
pet the remaining buttermilk and
thoroughly dlnuoo elio .,s-I. through
the mass, and this last should Do
done with as little mixing as will
exactly accomplish the requirement,
for the grain OF tie salt cutting the
globules OF the butter, Injuries the
grain of the latter, and the butter
becomes waxy.
The butter should never exceed a
temperature of sixty degrees when
worked, as higher point causes
the butter to gravitate iowa rds
sickness; and when worked al
too low point the butter be-
comes meally and the texture is des'
troyed.
If at the last working there is
additional salt required, care must
be taken that the burter has becom c
day, so that it will not be dissolved;
but many dairymen throw few
quarts OF water into the worker at
this stage to aid in dissolving the
salt, and carry with it the particles
of buttermilk that have remained
over from the previous working.
There is a mistake notion in re-
gard to salt adding to the keeping
quality ofbutter. The long keep
ing Danish butter perfectly worked,
but never receiving a particle OF
salt, proves the latter is not, so far
as it relates to the keeping OF but
ter, a preservative agent, and that
no amount of salt will keep butter
unless certain rules are observed
and requirements met. The papers
TEEN with notices of butter preser-
vatives and inventions to keep but
ter indefinitely, butt will probably
be long time before any Of them
will come into general use ; and tor
years to dome the long keeping but

Sheep in the Orchard.

A correspondent of the Vermont
Journal gives the following interest
ing experience in keeping sheep in
the apple orchard. Living in
Vermont, VI course his sheep are
herinos I'VE believe this is legiti-
mate concluslon), and he was COM
PEELED to use a wash to prevent
them from gnawing the trunks of
trees. With long woods there is
less trouble on this account:
Ny apple orchard covers thirty
two acres of ground. and in addition
to making it run for some thirty
hogs. l have during the past two
years kept from $50 to 200 sheep
nd lambs in it during the summer.
OF course that amoune OF land, if
t was in good seeding and free
from trees, would not pasture so
much stock, but in addition to the
pasture l feed enough grain and
bran TO kept them in such condi
ton that the lambs shall he large
enough to wean in July, and the
sheep sufficiently thrifty TO accept
the buck after weaving the lambs,
and thus drop their next lambs for
early winter feeding next winter.
This, find, costs me less than to

TO hear an apple drop If only a few
feet away, a sheep never sleeps, so
t hat it is on hand for every apple
as soon as it touches the ground.
l let then run here until time to
gather winter fruit, and although
they will eat a few apples and a
twigs from the ends of the lower
limbs, as they bend down with the
load Of fruit. l find my fruit each
year growing fairer. with less
