rapidly they will dry outand die. Sclons
are best buried. and dug when wanted
for spring grating. Select now the
kinds YOU would like to propagate, and
be ready to graft when SPRING, comes.
Early grating, as rule, succeeds better
than late grating.
Horses will eat all kinds of roots in
winter, especially if they are sliced and
little salt sprinkled over them. Roots
are dietary in action, keeping the bowels
open, and take the place of green food.
A mess of carrots is highly relished by
horses, and horses so fed, are cleaner
and in better order than when on dry
food alone. Mares that have colts by
their sides, will give a much larger
quantity of milk when allowed roots,
and the colts will be less liable to con-
stipation.
Heating the milk slightly causes the
cream to rise more rapidly at this sea-
son, and this will make the butter come
more quickly and be of better quality.
Much Of the inferiority ofwinter butter
is due to the fact that the cream rises
slowly and fungus forms on it before
it is ehurned. Stirring the cream a
little, at least once a day, is very i'm
portant when only one COW is kept and
the cream is long time accommodating
in quantity sufficient for churning. I'm
less this is done the butter will be apt TO
have bitter taste.
A correspondent of the Michigan
Farmer says: l wish to tell those who
may suffer from that terrible scourge,
ielons, Of painless remedy that will
eject perfect cure in tWenty-four
hours, as have had occasion to prove
within the last three days. A lady
came here who had been suffering over
Two weeks with a felon on her middle
hnger. l saturated bit of grated wild
t9rnlp, the size of bean, with spirits
Of turPentine and applied it to the
anected part. 1t relieved the pain at
once In twelve hours there was hole
70 Inc bone, and the felon was destroy
Gu. l removed the turnlp and applied
HeaIng salye, and the finger is well.
Inc young pigs that have lately been
,%eaned, should not be fed on slops I'M
,esS such food has been warmed. The
laIe lall pigs should be treated the
same way. A cold sloppy feed given to
mem en- on very severe day is damaging
cAlIlng the pigs completely, and greatly
impeding growth. 1t will be found, BY
comparison, that warm food fed to
Young pigs, will make fifty per cent
greater increase with them than the
SaiIe quantity of food fed cold. We do
not aliude to cooked food, but simply
SueeeSt that few quarts of boiling
@Ver be poured into the feed for them
