Feeding on the Ground.

1t is waste of feed OF any kind to give
20 stock upon the groud, aud especially
any kind of grain. There is always more
or less loss that with good management
conld very readily have been avoided, and
that would in a very short time pay for
the expense of providing suitable places
for feeding. Even the hogs ought 10
nave a tight floor upon which their corn
can DO fed, rather than upon tho ground.
Rough feed given to cattle, sheep or
horses, if fed upon the ground, is certain
TO have moro or iess OF it trampled down
and left. Tight floors, upon which the
grain fed TO hogs can be thrown, aud
feeding 5roughs or boxes to feed grain TO
the other kinds of stock, with racka or
managers for ali kinds Of rough feed will
prevent such loss. II ali the stock are

Winter Feeding Feed More Liberally-A Hint
to Farmers Who Bite or More Than They

Indiana Farmer
As winter approaches the economical
farmer will consider as 60 how he can
best utilize, the rough feed accumulated
on the farm during the past season.
Many SO called practical farmers" feed
all the fodder, timothy and clover hay
produced from many well cultivated fields
to stock during the winter months so no
purpose. They And, when spring comes,
that their feed is all consumed, and the
cattle and sheep Weighing little it any
more than when they went into winter
quarters. I think We are nos as we'll edu.
Gated in the art of feeding IA we are in
the art OF producing and havestipg feed.
Too many OF Us feed only for the purpose
of getting our stock through the winter,
and pretty we'll pleased with the result if
all come cut alive. The trouble is we
winter more stock than we can care for
properly. We throw away thousands f
dollars worth OF feed annually, from
which We have realized no profit. Re.
duce your hocks and herds--use a part of
the rougher kind of feed TO make shelter
for your stock feed more liberally; give
each animal daily allowance OF gram,
feed for the purpose of putting on
pounds, making bone, flesh and muscle,
and in the spring you will be pleased 60

AS we rode down from Enfield Town

The skies above US lost their form.
The birds Outsang from twg and spray.
The sparrow chirped, BE gay, be gay
The sweet-voiced marvis cRroled clear,
Aud gl0wed along our winding way
The golden autumn Of the year.
As we rode down from Enfield Town,
Between the thoruY hedgerows lay
The garnered grain fields amher-hrowu.
Aud meadows still In green array.
'Ahl Love, cried. why mourn the May
Hark how the birds with silvery cheer
Shout Welcome through The livelong day,

Eyes meeting eyes, she whispered, Nay. -
Though dead leaves fab round summers bier
Full joy find as through We stray
