1t is not possible to keep cattle
through the winter upon hay and
straw alone with profit. Hay will per-
haps keep them alive and IN steady
condition without loss of flesh if they
are well housed and cared for, but
Straw will not, and they will lose flesh
and perhaps die before the winter is
over. Ii the cattle are fed from four
to eight pounds of corn, linseed meal,
or cottonseed meal with the hay and
straw they may gain flesh and make
a profit.
Asparagus is Indispensable to the
family garden. AS it must be planted
either in the fall or the spring, the
question which is the better season is
one of interest. ANew-Jersey market
gardener who has been growing it for
20 years says the fall is the best time
to plant, and a western farmer who
thinks highly OF this necessary vegeta-
BILE for domestic use says, ''Plant Ill

Prof, Sanborn is a strong advocate
of the use of salt for COWS in a liberal
and regular ration. He says it may
be given ad libitum, or, in plain Eng
fish, as muck as the COWS will con-
sumo every day; and he especially
states that this supply is indispensa-
BILE in the dairy when fine butter is de-
sired. A well known dairyman also
observes in this connection that the
want OF a sufficient supply of salt is
undoubtedly the reason why so much
difficulty is found in churning in the
winter season, when the COWS have no
opportunity of getting their natural
supply from the soil, which they take
up in various ways.

From a well-considered articlei in the
N. E. Farmer We CLEAN the appended
paragraphs: "Left wholly to himself
the hog is a very clearly disposed crea-
ture. He likes grass, fresh fruits and
sweet grain very much better than he
likes these things after they are half
spoiled by decay. In the open field he
Keeps his feeding place and sleeping
place tree from his own filth. He takes
cold, and gets fevers under precisely
the same conditions that would bring
q cold or fever into the family of it's
owner, and he is subject to contagious
diseases that affect him very much as
other contagious diseases affect man.
I'VE have eeen many pens the past
summer, and they can be seen every
day in the year by those who will look
for them, where the soft mud and
sinking filth a foot deep extended
over the whole area, so there
was not SO much as a single dry straw
to sleep on. The hogs must sleep in
water, and eat in soft mnd, made not
only filthy, but poisonous, by their
own excrements. In such pens farm
els often throw ears of corn to be
eaten in the mud, and when the animals
become sick from exposure to cold or
wet, or poisoned by their fifty food
the owners wonder what made them
sick.
Confined in small pen hogs should
have at all times clean, dry places to
eat and to sleep. No animal is ever
gaining profitably to it's keeper when
chat animal is bodily or mentally un-
comfortable. A little muddy water
to wallow in will not seriously injure
q hog, if it can have dry place to
lie in. Muddy water is better than
none, especially in hot weather. It is
believed by many that the pigs legs
should often be wet to keep the It's
sues open and active. At any rate,
water is agreeable to the hog, and il
he is fed largely upon dry food, pure
water is indispensable to good
health"
Farmers who would grow q special
" fine article of pork could obtain
prices somewhat above the average
market, especially if they would pa
tiently build upa reputationfo for choice
goods. Select good breed, give good,
clean, wholesome quarters, feed upon
healthful food only, keep them growing
thrifty from birth, and kill while they
are still growing, say from seven to
ten months old; let the public know
what kind of pork you offer, and there
will be little difficulty in finding buy
srs that will pay enough above the
