HINTS.

There is no such disease as hollow horn.
When cattle are sick their horns are apt to
be cold, but we must look elsewhere than
to the horn for the disease. Indigestion is
quite apt to be the cause, and this is often
accompanied with loss of appetite indicated
by a refusal to chew the u 1t is a pop
ular mistake to suppose that the cud has
been lost and must be replaced. We might
as well talk of putting an appetite into a
dyspeptic man. Exercise and careful feed
ing will bring cattle around all right, and
men also. for that matter.
The sheep is exceedingly neat and even
fastidious about its food and drink, and
hence should nave clean grass and clear
running water. Though they use less
water than other animals, often passing
some days without it, it is none the less
necessary for their comfort and health that
it should be accessible.
1t is all very well TO break the colt and
exercise him when two years old, but 1t
will be a great mistake to put him at hard
work until two years later. Fast road ser
vice is more injurious than farm work.
While the muscles and bones are yet tender
injuries are easily incurred which no after
care will remove

directions for preparing a remedy for ma
laria VIII ich has proved ellicacious when
quinine has given no relief: Cut up a lem
on. peel and pulp, in thin slices, and boil it
ii a pint and a half Of water until it is re-
duced to half a pint. Strain through a lin
en- cloth, squeezing the remains Of the boil
ed lemon, and set it aside until cold. The
entire liquid is taken fasting.
For coffee stains try putting thick gfycer-
inc on the wrong side and washing it ont
with lukewarm water. For raspberry
stains weak ammonia and water is the best,
Stains of fruit on good table linen can be
removed without injury by using the fol-
lowing with care: Pour boiling water on
chloride of lime in the proportion of one
gallon to a quarter of a pound, bottle it.,
cork it well. and in using be careful not to
stir it. Lay the stain in this for a moment
then apply white vinegar and boil the table
linen.
To cure a felon fill a tumbler with equal
parts of fine salt and ice, mix well Sink
the finger in the center, allow it to re-
main until it is nearly frozen and numb,
then withdraw it, and when sensation is
restored renew the operation four or five
times, when it will be found the disease is
destroyed. This must be done before pus
is formed.
4 simple remedy for neuralgia is to APP
ply grated horseradish, prepared the same
as for table use, to the temple when the
face or head is affected, or the wrist when
the pain is in the arm or shoulder.
1t is said that eggs from mature hens are
much better for Matching purposes than
those from young ones, as a larger proper
ton of them are likely to prove fertile.
Instead of giving directions for keeping
cider palatable the best service we can do
is to tell how to change it quickly into vim
egar. This is done by removing a little
daily, warming it Slightly, and returning
it TO the barrel.
TO remove dandruff put one ounce of
flour of sulphur into one quart of water,
agitate often for several hours, then pour
off the clear liquid and saturate the head
with it every morning. This does not pro-
duce the extreme dryness sometimes occa-
stoned by the use Of borsX.
Never enter a sick-room in a state of per-
