God is wholly one or the other. The two
terms have only q relative adjudication.
All foods are more ogrbonAcsous, than
they are heterogeneous, but when the pro-
portion OF heterogeneous elements is oom-
paratively large tine food ia called nitro
Rsnous, and when carbonaceous elements
are comparatively large the food ia called
oIbonAceous. Foods are composed Of a
rye number Of ingredients in different
proportions, but II We are careful TO get |
Two Of them In the right proportion the
rest will be present in sufficient quantity. |
These two are carbon and nitrogen"
Poultry should demand 4 place on the |
little farm both for the raising Of chickens |
and eggs for market. With . warm
place for wintsring and proper food and |
care, the greatest profit wouli be realiz ID |
nom early spring chickens for broilers
and eggs, and In the winter season, when
they always command double piises. The
males OF the early Matched would furnish
the hrst, and the pullets the winter
layers, II kept In warm quarters and on
proper food. II gone into in a moderate
way, and properly managed, poultry can
be made to pay good profit on the cost
| Of keeping and contribute its share 10 the
income Of the little farm; but gone into as
business, poultry ia mighty uncertain.
One person in 100, possibly not more
than one in 1000 will succeed. The
risks seem to increase in proportion 10
the numbers.-Fdrmers' Rsvie,o.
SIT you have q very rusty plow," says
3 writer in the Cincinnati Tunes, "pour
about eight ounces Of sulphurio acid, as
purchased al the apothecary's, into a
quart Of water do this slowly and very
carefully, for II will burn hands, clothing
or almost anything else also, use an
eArthen or crookeTy vessel rather than
tin or iron one. Apply this TO the rusty
surface two or three times, making each
application as soon as the former one is
dry. Then wash with clear water and
repeat the process. Give some Of the
worst spots a rub with q bit Of Brittol
brick, wash again with water and wipe
dry. Put a little kerosene around the
bolts and take the pillow 70 pieces, soour-
ing each piece 10 get Of the remainder Of
the rust spots II necessary. This sounds
like formidable process but the whole
. operation ought not to lake over an hour.
1 Oil all exposed surfaces with kerosene
/ when you set the pillow away, and when
e on do your spring blowing . very few
: farms will finish of the balance Of the
q rust"
. Two correspondents Of the Western
. Stock Journal give their methods Of curing
], kicking COWS, respectively, as follows: a
Q year or two since | got in trade hand
g some 3-year old heifer, one OF the most
/; vicious kickers / ever saw. One Of my
, men who milk tried various devices with.
q out effect, and finally took . common
b garden hoe, passed the end in front o.
n the of hind leg (the right leg behind,
y and behind and above the gsmmel join
1t OF the left hind leg Of the heller. Then
r sitting down on the right 10 milk he pu
1t the handle OF the hoe well under his lei
Is arm and bagAn milking. The heiie
10 could not stir either hind leg, and ate
10 one week she could be MIXED sAfel,
a. without lettering and proved to be
le valuable and gentle animal. OF course
"a she was tied In the stable like othe
ie cows but on being turned out TO gras
ie could be MIXED anywhere withou
ir trouble.
Of Here ia a practical idea, In few words
lg from a correspondent Of the Poultry Yard
ne make saw benches for roosts-thAt Is,
ne take 2x4 soAntling and nail legs TO theI
All Of the length to suit space and breed
be These, as you will at once sse, can
ly moved at pleasure when cleaning drol
X pings, or for any other reason that ma
ut present itself but the beat part Of 1t
he as regArds lice. Every week take m
d. kerosene can and 60 TO the hen hous
'es carefully pick up and carry out Of doc
'es my saw benches, pour the kerosene 9
fes them, and touch 1t of; the flame vi
m, quickly run ever every part OF it, and !
vas out without burning the wood, but evei
yer mite or nit that would have made on

this plan for come time, and have !
trouble with lice.
