wintering Young Pigs.

Pigs born later than the first Of October
will need good care and skillful management
TO keep them in thrifty, growing con-
dition through the winter. This is par
ticulariy the case if you keep them in large
numbers, and il is a good plan TO sell all
YOU can before winter sets IN. People who
keep only two or three pigs TO eat up the
Stops from the house, can handle their late
pigs TO better advantage than the large far
mer or breeder. Such young pigs need
milk, greasy water, or broth and bread, or
cooked potatoes. with corn meal pudding !;
these are more likely to be literally fur
nished from the kitchen when you have only
two pet pigs, than when you have two score
or two hundred. Whatever method of feed
ing is adopted let it be liberal. Let them
have all the good feed they will eat-no
more, no less. Let them have good, dry,
comfortable quarters to sleep in. and dis
turb them as little as possible. Figs are in
part alternating animals. The more they
sleep the better for them and their owner.
We do not wan, to fatten pigs in winter.
We simply want to keep them in healthy
growing condition.

HENS PLUcKING THEIR FEATHERs.-
Experienced poultrymen are of the opinion
that this comes from feeding the animals
too much food, which causes the quilts to
be unduIy charged with blood, and induces
uneasiness that leads to pecking each
Others plumage. Malays have a great
propensity for this evil habit. A suitable
remedy is found in plenty ofgreen food Of
every kind, which may be minced up fine
and mixed with soft food. Some have tried
with good results the tying Of piece Of
scarlet flannel around the neck Of the
fowls which makes them shy Of one
another.

FEEDING CLOVER HAY.-A correspon-
den, who has been troubled BY coughing
horses. says that from observation he ha.
become convinced that the manner of feed
ing clover hay has been the entire cause.
His custom, like that of many others, has
been to let the animal draw the hay down
through rack, thus stripping of the fine
dust, which was drawn into the lungs in
respiration and produced the cough. He
believes the remedy for this disease to be in
giving the animal his feed in the natural
way, viz, allowing it to gather the food
from the level Of his feet Since changing
bis racks to managers the writer says he has
had no further trouble with coughing
horses.

-Milch cows and oxen after they have
reached eight years old may be considered
as past their pree. and more subject to
disease than younger animals. At this age
they will yet make good beef and it is letter
to fatten them for slaughter. filling their
places With young stock.
Ellsworth American. [volume] (Ellsworth, Me.) 1855-current, 1884-11-20

New oats are not good feed for horses,
it is said, as they relax the bowels, and often
if the change from old to new is sudden, the
value of the oat ration is entirely lost. As
they shrink good deal in drying, the old
cats, though nominally dearer, are usually
cheaper. as well as better feed than the new
crop.
