Hpayes in Horses

The difficulty in breathing and the
cough are the usual symptoms o iieaves
In horses. This disease is very common
IN all of the astern States and rare in
the Western, where horses are fed on
prairie hay, oats, and corn. 1t is often
brought on by feeding musty hay or that
containing clover, and may be cured by
feeding only well-cured corn fodder and
good clean oats, or oats and corn ground
together and the meal fed upon moistened
cut hay and straw. Some veterinarians
recommend sprinkling the hay with weak
lime water, also giving feed of raw car
rots once or twice week during the
winter months. Turning out to pasture
in summer will usually give some relief
to the afflicted animal, but in winter only
the sweetest and cleanest food should be
given, for the least dust or mustiness in
the food will only aggravate the disease.
Ii the food given does not keep the
bowels open ard free, then it is well to
give an occasional dose of sulphate of
soda-two ounces dissolved in a pint of
water-and in this soak two or three
quarts OF oats. DR.. Low advises giving
arsenic in tive-grain doses daily, con
tinuing for month or two. This should
be given in addition to the other remedies,
such as roots, dampened hay, &c.-Neo

A great deal of butter is spoiled by bad
management of the milk and cream be :
fore churning. Every butter maker
should remember that the excellence Of
butter depends on its delicate flavor and
aroma, which cannot be described, but
are at once recognized by all lovers of
good butter. Nobody can make good
butter from the milk of cows that have
musty and unwholesome food or that get
their drinking water out of stagnant
pools. Neither can it be made from cream
that has been raised in celia ) full of the
smells of decaying vegetables or where
the walls are damp and mildewed. In q
word, wholesome food and drink for the
cows, clean utensils and u perfectly sweet
milk room, with the skimming and
churning done at just the right time, are
each and all indispensable in making
good butter. --Ne@ Torb World.

Early Fattenjnr of Pics.

Young growing hogs should not be
heavily grain fed, especially as in this
country grain usually means corn. On
the other hand, relying wholly on pasture
is almost equally bad. Pigs in clover
has passed into an euphemism for the
height of pig prosperity, but the idea is
an illusion. II the pig in clover gets
nothing else it will do more squealing
than growing. But the clover makes an
excellent base on which to build a
substantial ration. Grass is just as good,
and on an old, rich sod is even better
than clover, as it does not dry up in
midsummer. The pig eats more and
wastes and muses. less. On grass as the
foundation the farmer can now build up
delightful variety for the pig in refuse
potatoes, small apples, the Trimmings of
the beets, or after these are gone some
OF the main crop, and pumpkins. ANY
or all of these boiled and then mixed
while hot with bran, corn and oatmeal,
or in fact anything nutritious, will make
dish that will give the pig The variety
that it Graves, and so exercise its digestive
organs that they can endure the heavier
strain OF high grain fceoing when the
time for that has come Nuleieatoy.

War Against Weeds.

Mr.. I. M. Barger, Summit, N. Y. la
ments, in the New York Tribune, that SO
little is SAID in the agricultural papers
about the different weeds, and he sends
a specimen of one which appearing in his
locality within few years is causin o
much uneasiness among the farmers on
account of its rapid spread call over, in
poor and good land alike, and plough.
ing only checks for time The seed S
are very small, attached to down which
floats OFT with slight breeze; it also
spreads BY the roots, runners starting
out in all directions" Mr.. r. has ap
Piled fine salt when in blossom.
Sprinkle it on during a clear day and
the heavy dews are Just enough TO dis
solve it, which, running down on the
roots, kills them" The plant is hier-
aceum; is commonly called hawkweed-
1t becomes perennial by its runners The
old plants are annual, but they do not
die till they make liberal provision for
future generation by seeds and runners.
In plant, as in all other life, the battle is
to the strong; hence, if ground infested
by hawkweed be planted with some
thing OF ranker growth-such as corn or
potatoes-the intruder would, after a
time, be choked out. Any crop that re-
quires frequent stirring of the soil earlv
in the season, before the flowers and
runners OF this weed form. would aid
greatly in its destruction. A prime rule
for the farmer is: Do not let weeds
propagate, and do not let them breathe.
II this hawkweed has invaded grass land
cutting will not kill it, as its lungs or
leaves are at the base of the stalk, close
to the ground. If sheep will eat it, early,
close pasturage by them would probably
be effectual.
