breeding. The laborer, by the clinging

comes a fit subject for the bath tub
very frequently. Too frequent bathing
Is weakening. 1t may not be advisable
to take a bath morning and evening, as
some medical journals advise, but a
good washing frequently enough to
keep the person clean. Warm baths
will often prevent the most vlrulent
diseases. a person who may be in fear
of having received infection of any kind
should take a warm bath, suffer per-
spiration to ensue, and then rub dry.
Dress warmly to guard against taking
cold. If the system has inbibed any in-
fectious matter, it will be removed by
resorting to this process, if done before
the infection has time to spread over
the system; and even il some time has
elapsed, the drenching perspiration that
may be induced by hot water Will be
very certain to remove it.

FEEDING Cows IN SUMMERTIME
customary loss from poor and deficient
feed in midsummer, when grazing is the
sole dependence for the summer feed
for the herd, is about two-fifths of
what would have been the yield if full
feeding of green food had been supplied
through. the entire season. When a
herd has been permitted to shrink from
drought, it not only gives less milk
through all the remaining part of the
season, but it dries up entirely very
much soone than when the flow is Kept
right up to its maximum measure all
the time. Herds which are full fed go
dry on an average only about one month
in the year, while those which suffer
from a drought six TO ten weeks in the
hot part of the season, with no extra
feed, go dry on the average about three
months. Animals pinehed in the sum-
mer get poor and wanting in vigor, so
that they do not stand the winter well,
and yet 1t costs more to winter such a
herd than it does a fleshy one. To SUBJ
ject COWS to a lack of feed when they
should be doing their best, brings dis

AS to the best time to cut hay there
are various opinions. Some favor cut
ting it early, others late. There are
others still who take a middle ground,
and advocate cutting grass when in
blossom as the best time. But the
best time is still an open question. The
preponderance of testimony however, is
in favor Of late cutting. Within the
last few years many carefully conduct
ed experiments have been made with a
view to establish all things considered
the best time to harvest the hay crop.
The result generally has been in favor
Of late cutting. All know that cattle
prefer green grass to hay. We also
know that they prefer early cut hay to
that cut at a later period. But whe-
Their it is better for them, all things
considered, is not so well established.
OF this much however, there can be no
doubt, that working cattle and horses
can stand hard work far better on well
matured hay than they can on imma-
tured and better on the latter than on
grass, though without exception, they
prefer green grass.
