Autumn Care of Live stock.

Horses should be kept out of all hard
storms, which are frequent during Novem-
Der. One of the best cures for severe cold
is warm stable and perfect rest, with good
run in the yard or pasture on pleasant days.
Ii is too late in the year 20 permit horses 10
remain out OF doors through the night.
Young colts and yearlings need plenty Of
nutritious food. Much depends upon the
care which colts receive during their first
winter. Oats are excellent for them; il corn
is used. it should be fed with wheat bran.
Use the brush freely on all horses and colts,
and keep the SKIN clean and active.
Cows. which are To give milk through the
winter, need TO be fed with special care az
this time. If possible. the flow of milk must
not be permitted to decrease. Mangels aud
sugar beats are excellent, cut in slices and
sprinkIed with bran. The rule, that good
feeding brings good manure should be kept
in mind in judicious care Of farm animals
during winter. Good feed in abundance is
not enough; it should be given with rega-
Iarity The habits OF different animals have
TO be studied, and treated accordingly.
Scarcely any two COWS or horses have the
same appelites lt is important 10 50 mix
and change the feed that sameness may be-
avoided variety OF food encourages
healtbful digestion, and upon this the profits
OF the owner largely depend
sheep will bear more exposure than any
other domestic animal. but even they winter
poorly without a good shelter. Sheds and
yards should now be put in order, that there
may be no delays IN getting the hoeks into
their winter quarters. Ewes should now be
with young. excepting when late lam0s are
desired Half pint of corn per dav will aid
in keeping each eve in good condition. All
weak sheep should be placed by themselves
and fattened for market. IL does not pay to

Pigs are most profitable il fattened and sold

is used mp in simply maintaining the animal

swine will sometimes lose i'm weight during a

tered through the house. This should, and
probably will become something more than
a fancy. for after one has become accustomed
10 the convenient and very useful practice OF
putting away things in them it will be diffi-
cult to give them up. They are made IN
every style and of every kind of material IL
for bedrooms, they should match in color
with the other bright or sombre colors used
there. One very simple and pretty way to
make them is 10 make the bag of white
butchers linen; cut in square, and have il
about fifteen inches each way. AcreSs the
top and bottom put on
strip of canton flannel three inches
wide sew this to the linen with fancy
stitches, then draw three circles at equal dis
tances apart. and about the size OF half
dollar. Work these. commencing at the cen
tire. and going up in straight lines 10 the cir
cumference. with three or four shades of vel
low embroidery silk. This bag is not gath
cred at the top, but has two blue strings at
tached To the corners TO hang il by. The
bottom Of the bag may be ornamented by a
strip of butchers linen frnged out, or by a
row of torchon across the bottom, slightly
fulled on, or il may DE left plain. Another
way is 10 have the bottom of the bag OF a
band of silk, sateen or velvet, i've inches
wide, and the rest OF the bag. which should
be ten inches or mere long, OF one kind of
material. The top should be faced for
about five inches and shir be
stitched there and ribbons run in. Aida
canvas bags, made in the shape of the FIRST
one mentioned, are very pretty. Embroider
some snowy figure OF pattern or the canvas,
and have the upper part OF silk with very
narrow ribbon to hang 10 by. The canvas
so extensively used by tailors in gentlemen
coats makes nice and serviceable bags. This
may be used in place OF butchers linen.
Still another style is 70 take n piece OF silk

inches wide line il with silesa sew it up in
a long and narrow bag. leaving an opening
in the center large enough to insert your
hand, gather the ends aud finish with a tas

over these ends up each side of the opening

The Secretary OF the State Board OF Agri-

building was closed at the same time.
The Executive Committee of the Board has
issued circular in (which they show the
financial condition OF the Board and en-
ter upon defence OF uheir acts in regard to
certain matters that have been discussed by
the people and the newspapers The circu-
lar is exhaustive in its discussion OF the sub.

TO the citizens of Indianapolis upon the part
of the Board, but show very conclusively
that under the management OF the Gsaran.

lovely, and that. too. from the very fact that
the winged bird hung entirely too high. Up.
on this subject the circular says:
Although the joint Commitiee had full sway in
all Exposition matters.and made display OF which
every lndianian was proud. yet there was some
complaint. and n feeling expressed that the city
ought 10 run the Exposition part OF the show. The
Board intimated that they would be only too glad
to have the city assume such control: so the guar
an;ors met and selected an Exposition Committee
for 1874. They were welcomed by the Board and

this connection he showed the reporter a

We have much poor land in the United

IT, gradually, into pasture, and stocking IL
with sheen and cattle. The main point Is, 10
feed the sheep or cattle with some rich nitro
Eenous food, such as cotton seed cake. malt
sprouts, BRAN shorts, mili-feed, refuse beans
or bean meal made from beans injured by
the weevil, or bug. In short. the owner OF
such land must buy such food as will furnish
the most nutTiment and make the richest

objects into consideration. He will also buy
more or less artificial manIlres, 70 be used for

Tor this purpose, and two. three, or four hun

on many farm every year for want OF some
absorbent TO catch this volatile and most
valuable constituent of manure In some
sections it is abundant within short distance

plying this absorbent is the digging. In a
dry fall the water has evaporated from the
swamps, so that the peat bed can be cxca-
