Points in Fattening Cattle.

The Ontario agri cultural college re-
port euumerates the following points
in fattening cattle:
Most animals eat in proportion to their
weight, under average conditions of age.
temperature and fairness.
Give fattening cattle as much as they
will eat, and oft-times a day.
Never give rapid changes of food, but
change often,
A good guide for safe quantity of grain
per day to maturing cattle is one pound to
each hundred of their weight; thus an
animal weighing 1000 pounds may receive
ten pounds of grain.
Every stall feeding in the fall will make
the winters progress more certain than
thirty per cent
Give as much water and salt at all times
as they will take.
In using roots it is one guide to give just
40 much in association with other things,
so that the animal may not take any water.
In buildings, have warmth, with com
plete ventilation, without currents, but
never under 40 Q nor over zoe Fahrenheit
cool. damp. airy temperature will
cause animals to consume more food with
out corresponding result in bone, muscle,
flesh or fat, much being used to keep up
warmth.
Stall feeding is better for fat making
than box or yard management, irrespective
of health.
Ths growing animal. intended for beef ,
requires IA little exercise daily, to promote
muscle and strength of constitution; when
ripe. only so much rs to be able to walk to
market.
Keep the temperature of the body about
100 Q. not under % oror over 1867 Fahren-
heit.
Don't forget that one animals meat may
be another animals poison.
1t takes three days of good food to make
mp for one of bad food
The faster the fattening the more profits,
less food, earlier returns and bette flesh.
Get rid of every fattening cattle beast be-
fore it is three years old.
Every day an animal is kept after being
prime there is loss. exclusive of manure.
The external evidences of primeness are
full rumps, TANKS, twist. shoulder. pores,
vein and eye.
good cattleman means difference of
one-fourth. He should know the likes and
disikes of every animal
1t pays to keep one man in constant at
tendance on thirty head of fattening cattle.
Immediately when an animal begins to
fret for food Immediately it begins to lose
flesh; never check the fattening process.
Never begin fattening without definite
plan.
There is no loss in feeding cattle we'll for
the sake of the manure alone.
No cattle whatever will pay for the di-
rect increase to its weight from the con-
sumption of any kind or quantity of food
the manure must he properly valued.
On an average it costs, on charging
every possible item, twelve cents for every
additional pound added to the weight of a
two or three year-old fatteninR beast.
In this coutry the market value of store
| cattle can be increased thlrty-six per cent.
during six months of the fattening finish.
In order to secure II sure profit, no store
cattle beast. of the right stamp and well
done to. can be sold at less than four and a
! half cents per pound, live weight.

Coal Ashes as a Fertilizer.

A correspondent of the Country
Gentleman, writing on the above sub
ject, says; In reply to A. H., p. 67,
current volume, as to manurial value
of coal ashes, you inform him that they
contain very little enriching materi-
all wherein agree. But after trial
as top-dressing on lawn, cannot
assent to the proposition that they de-
rive much value from the wood used
AS kindhng, particularly when the fire
is kept up continuously for six weeks
on an average. We used anthracite,
in kitchen as well as parlor, some years
ago. When the stove CRATES required
dumping we removed ashes, Stag, etc,
that would not sift through the CRATE.
Pine was used to rekindle-some few
beech or maple chips with it. A liber-
al estimate of wood ashes, hard and
soft, would be one-half bushel to each
two-horse load of 20 bushels of coal
ashes. The ashes were run through a
sieve, and early the following spring
drawn and spread on three acres OF
lawn, not expecting to derive any ben
eft, but as convenient method of
getting rid of them. Where the ashes
were spread there was noticeable III
crease in thrifty grow tn of red clover
where little was to be seen before.
The result would have been rs beneii-
cial had less quantity been applied,

Trees standing in or near surface
water, and in low, moist, rich and
mucky land, run much sap, but it Is
waterv and poor, while trees standing
on ledgy ground and dry Will give us
very sweet sap. In all cases where |
have found trees standing in or uear
cold springs | find that those trees run
very sweet sap and a large quantity.
Now, then, l learn this lesson: That
temperature has much to do with the
quality of sap; warm water makes poor
sap aud cold water makes rich sap.
Now, then, who is the bolanist, natur-
alist or student who will inform me
,chy this is so? What is the law?
am acquainted with tree standing in
very cold spring on the farm owned
by G.. w. Kellogg of DuXbury, YER
mont, from which was made, in the
spring of 1881, thirty and three-fourths
pounds of very nice cake sugar. Two
spouts were used running into one tub,
the bore being one and one-half inches
deep. The deeper we bore our trees
the darker our sugar will be, and the
more molasses it will contain. Shallow
boring gives MS light sugar, with less
Injury w Jul tiCCS. Twp DiO-
longs sap running. There is more sap
caught in the DAYTIME and sweeter than
in the night. Sugar made from second
growth naples is whittier than that made
from first growth trees. The whittier
the wood the whiter the sugar. 1t is
the acoOd that gives color to sugar in
pure sap. The more scattering the
trees the more and sweeter is the sap.
Color indicates the value of sugar.
Three kinds of tubs are used, the wood
en-, tin and white metal buckets. The
latter are radiators of heat and lust
proof, and so by far the most preferable,
but the price will hinder their ready
and universal adoption. Every tub
should have cover. With these metal
buckets, cool and rust-proof, with
covers, and the Ohio tin spouts, to-
gether with the Bellows Falls evapor-
ator, with all other utensils and appli-
ances 80 harmonic, the sugar maker
may feel that he is the master of the sit
uation, and that he is at the head of one
OF the most pleasant and profitable in
dustries pertaining to the farm.

THE SHEEP INTEREST.
Rutland County Breeders and the YER
mont Register.

A "Rutland County Breeder" writes
as follows TO the Rutland Herald:
notice in your paper of Tuesday,
Feb. 20, communication signed rs"
and dated at Castleton, in which there
are some statements calculated to mis-
lead and do great injustice. 60"
states that it is proved conclusively
that the Vermont Register is exclusive
" for the benefit of Addison county
breeders, while the truth is, 1t has
seemed to make no difference whether
the applicant resided in Rutland or
Addison county, provided he furnished
satisfactory proof that his sheep were
pure. In proof of this | will mention
that over seventy tiocks have been adj
mitted for record from Rutland coun-
ty. | would ask "S." if he or Mr..
Hamilton of Fair Haven have ever APP
piled to have their flocks recorded in
the Vermont Register. AS there are
already several breeders in Fair Haven
and Castleton that are in what as"
styles the 'ring," how does he know
but what they may be admitted, if they
apply?
In regard to the blood of Milton
BARRIERS Old WriDkley, am informed
that he committee on pedigrees never
decided he was impure blood; that the
blood of that ram was never a matter
of question before the committee, but
the Milton Barber strain of blood was
not admitted until evidence was pre-
scented to prove that the flock of Mr..
Curtis, from which Mr.. BARRIERS sprang
or were bred, were pure Merino sheep
that were kept ear-marked as Mr.. Bar
her claimed, as well as those crossed
with SaXony that were kept ear-iDark-
ed differently.
One reason why the Barber blood
was not admitted sooner was because
of his making the mistake of locating
Mr.. Curtis in Connecticut, and that he
procured his sheep of Stephen Atwood
of Connecticut. While neither of
these proved true, thorough investiga-
ton proved that Mr.. Curtis lived in
New Yofk, near Connecticut, and that
he procured his Merino sheep from
those bred from importation by the
father Of John A. Tainter of Hartford,
Conn.
