CHANGE THE FOOD. Combining any
kind OF stock whatever, whether poultry
or animals, to one particular kind OF
food, is no. only very creless system
OF management, but it Is sure to be a
very Improbable one. Keep flock OF
fowls, especially the Drahmas or Coch-
ins, supplied with corn regularly, ana
they VIII soon cease to lay. They will
lay on tat, will grow heavy and slug
gish, but the production of eggs will
gradually lessen until not one can be
found, This Is caused by an undue ac-
emulation Of tat or adipose matter III
the ogaries Or egg sacks, and ehectually
prevents the formation Of eggs. Wnlle
other grains, such as oats, neat, buck
wheat and other foods are not quite 30
bad, yet no one kind OF gram should be
leu to the entire exclusion OF other
kinds of iced. Give them change OF
food Ms often as 1t can be conveniently
done, Ii on wish to secure plenty OF
eggs, as we'll as to keep your fowls i'll
good growing condition, OYer-tat fowls
are apt 10 contract DISEASE much more
quickly than those in only a thriving
cohdlIlon. while they almost invariably
suceumb to the attack when disease
does overtake them. The mortality
among oyer-ied specimens is far greater
than among those which always have
keen appetite Tor their regular meall
AID meals tor their appetites. 1t re
qunes but little experience 10 fully de
monhtrale this.

AGRICULTURE.

5oRsHUM ASA CATTLE FooD. Reports
OF seriously injurious or fatal results
from feeding sorghum to cattle we
think must be unfounded, except in the
sense in which such reports may be
made of corn-fodder or any other food.
Cattle have died In consequence of
overheating, or from injudicious feed
ing, but abundant experience has
shown sorghum to be q valuable food
for stock.
Most commonly 1t has been used as a
soiling crop, cut and fed while green /;
but in many cases it has been cured and
fed rs corn-fodder is, not only TO cattle,
but TO horses and sheep, and with good
satisfaction. As our correspondent
states, the unusual ability OF the plant
TO Withstand drought makes it especially
suited for dry climates. A few days
since a gentleman connected with a
large sorghum sugar factory in central
southern Kansas, speaking OF the posi-
bility that the factory would not be able
to work up all the cane grown, said the
farmers there counted the crop worth
nearly as much for fodder as they OBJ
tanned for it at the factory, and would
not feel they had suffered loss if Obliged
to keep portion of their crop.
In some cases sorghum seed hes been
drilled or sown late in the fall or in
early winter, so as to get an earlier
growth In spring. We do not know II
this would be desirable where our cor.
respondent lives. A much heavier, and,
as we think, more valuable crop can bt
obtained by drilling the seed in row
and giving 1t cultivation, rather than b.
sowing it broadcast

A CORRESPONDENT AsAs us for rem
edy Tor the leaf pest OF the currant, say
ing that he lost last year fine crop OF
cuTrants by the sudden disappearance
of the leaves, which he discovered TO be
done by this destructive worm. We
Know not how often we have referred to
the depredatons Of this pest. Their
operations are rapid, aud unless their
fret appearance Is watched they may
do their work before one is aware Of 1T
There are several remedies. We have
used fine, sitted coal ashes, first sprink-
ling the leaves thoroughly with water,
so as to reach the under parts, and APP
ply the dust proiusely, and repeat 1t
once or twice If necessary, which may
be the case. But there ID nothing so
effective as white hellebore, busting 1t
over as well as on the under slde OF the
leaves, which never fails in destroying
it. 1t can be had at the druggists ana
some general stores. The leaves should
be watched as soon US they appear, as
the woIms sometimes get to work very
early. We may have something more
to say on this subject as the time foI
the danger approaches.

A sINGLE.system of rotation is not
mol can it be applicable in all localities
The only true test of any system is its
continued success, In planning a Iu.
dicious rotation it is advIoable to alter

such as wheat, oats, barley or rye, those

plants favorable to the growth Of weeds

ACCORDING to writer the germs OF
fowl cholera enter the system by the
digestive organs, and they are generally
taken with food. The contagion lis
spread by means Of the excrement Of
sick lows or the flesh or other parts oil
dead ones. Frequently, no doubt, it is
carried considerable distances by small
birds, which are also subject to it. No
absolute cure is known, but by proper
use OF dlslnfectants the disease can be
prevented. When cholera Is i'll your
neighborhood watch your fowls, and ii
disease appears remove the sick ones
and disiniect the yards with a sprlnk'
ling OF water and sulphuric acid, il
the proportion OF eight gallons to eighr
ounces.

Style is an imperlous tyrant. 1t has
subjects everywhere and they are gene
rally OF the most AFFECT kind. The de-
mands of the master, however extrava-
giant and how great sOever the sacrifice,
are complied with, ii not with absolute
cheerfulness, at least without outward
murmuring. The family that stints its
table for eleven months in the year, in
order that the twelfth may be spent in
style at some noted summer resort,
never complains to others of the priva-
ton. If the inner histories of many of
the deyotees of style were faithfully
written, what curious volume they
would make, and how plain people would
stare and smile and wonder when they
read it.
