New York State and Eastern Pennsyl-

in poultry matters than in any other
part of the United States, the poor poul-
try.houses outnumber the good ones.
Then you don't feed your poultry

sometimes not enough, and you don't

The Injurious Blanket.

Nearly every season we are led to call
attention to the injurious use of the
horse blanket. We are pretty regular
with this warning. because We are
always reminded of it by seeing some
of the city horses covered with blankets
early in the season. Now the horse
does not feel ordinary cool weather.
The ami NAL is perfectly comfortable
even in much cooler weather than we
have had yet, and it is very uncomfort.
able if wrapped up in blanket. Quite
likely the horse will sweat under the
blanket in weather that is not cold, and
when the covering is taken off it is
likely that the horse will take cold.
Men who think they are better without
overcoats will sometimes cover the
horse as soon as they stop, as if the
animal were as tender as baby. The
blanket is for cold weather, but not for
cool weather. Western Rural.

Molting Hens and Pullets.

The Nor Vest Farmer says: When
hens begin to molt they cease laying,
and the result is that they are sent to
market, while the pullets hatched early
in the season are kept over in order to
replace the hens. This is all wrong.
A pullet is not matured until she is at
least one year old, and although she
may lay, yet the eggs are not always
the best for Matching purposes. 1t is
an annual sacrifce-the slaughter of
the hens-that should cease. IF not
discontinued the poultry of this country
will gradually lose yigor and the aver
age number of eggs laid will fall off.
In fact, every year we can point to new
difficulties, such as diseases and failure
to lay, the weakness Of chicks, and the
lack of ability to Withstand severe
Winters. Pullets may indeed be kept
for laying, but for reproducing the stock
the hens alone should be used. There
is mistake made by selling off the
molting hens. If they are permitted
to remain and shed their feathers, they
can be relied upon as the best OF
Winter layers, especially if they begin
to molt so as to finish the process be-
fore Winter begins. The molting hen
requires food rich IN nitrogen. The
best food is tcaspoonful linseed meal
mixed with bran, meal and ground oats,
made into crumbly (uot stick) dough,
in the morning, with meal three times
a week (at noon) with wheat at night.
IF fed in this manner she will in ten
weeks shed her feathers, and be in
prime condition for work, her eggs
will hatch strong, vigorous chicks, and
she will be able to go through the
Winter without difficulty.

Timely w arning.

The time will soon be here when the
cattle will be turned into the stalk fields.
Now if cattle are turned into stalk fields
and permitted to gorge themselves with
dry corn fodder, they will be just as
likely to kill themselves as not, and
perhaps more likely than not. They
stuff themselves with this dry fodder,
with some corn and with some smut,
and the result is that the digestive pro.
cess cannot take care of it, the stomach
becomes impacted and the animal dies,
unless there is surgical operation and
the stomach relieved of its burden.
The remedy is to prevent it from being
done. The cattle mnst not be permit.

they are frstturned in, and should have

cases an experienced veterinarian may
be able to save the animal by surgery.
1t is peculiarly true in such cases that
an ounce of prevention is worth a
pound of cure.

TATE SPRINGS, Tenn, July a, 1883. 7
The Swift Specific Co., Atlanta, Ca:
During the spring of 1871, while working
in the field at my home in Morgan county,
Ca, pulled off my shoes to give my feet
rest. Unfortunately, walked into clump
of poison oak, and in few days my feet
were in terrible condition, and l could not
put on a shoe because of the soreness and
swelling. was treated as poison OF cases
usually are, and everything was healed up.
About the same time the following spring,
1872, my feet became sore again, as at first,
and every succeeding spring for five years
ease, only each time it became more dis
tressing, because began to think it was a
lifetime trouble. Finally, I was induced to
try Swift's Specific. took six bottles, and
to-day am entirely well. My improvement
was gradual from the first, and no evidence
of the disease remains. I shall take pleas
ure in testifying as to its curative proper
ties. 1t is the greatest blood purifier in ex-
istence. Yours truly, J. L. MORGAN.
The foregoing certificate is taken at
random from thousands of letters in possess

Storing Cabbage.

With a little care taken to store
properly, cabbage can be kept in good
condition all winter. They can remain
out like turnips until late, but should
be gathered and stored before freezing
cold weather sets in. There are sever.
al plans OF putting them away; or they
can be stored in the cellar. If to be
kept until late. the better plan is to pit
out, as they are more inclined to rot in
the cellar. A supply enough to last
several weeks can be stored in the eel
lar and the balance pitted out,
There are three good plans of pitting
them away, and it is more matter of
choice than anything else, which plan
is adopted. One plan is to dig trench,
about three or four feet wide. and as
long as may be necessary to hold the
quantity desired. It should be made
at least eighteen inches deep, and when
the soil is not too hard to dig, two feet
will not be too deep. Put in a thin
layer of straw, pull up the cabbage and
pack them in as closely as possible,
with the heads down. When all are in,
cover well with soil. Care should be
take to cover we'll and to build up suf-
6ciently high to thoroughly protect.
Some prefer to set the heads up in
stead of the roots, packing close togeth-
er, covering with layer of straw, and
then with soil. The principal object
cf applying layer of straw is to keep
the dirt from getting down in among
the leaves.
If a roof of boards is placed over the
trench to shed the water the cabbage
will keep perfectly.
The cleanest plan, but one that re-
quires little more work, is to make
the trench about one foot deep, and set
the cabbage in, heads up, packing close
together. About every eight feet,
forked post or short stake should be set
up, so that the top will be about two
feet above the level of the ground.
Into these forks lay stout pole, then
set up boards, SO that one end will rest
upon the pole and the other upon the
ground. They should be made sufic.
iently tight to keep the dirt from falling
down through upon the cabbage. Then
cover with soil, SO as to protect from
frost. This keeps them clean, and
makes it much more convenient to get
them during the winter, should it be
desirable to use some of them.
Freezing does not particularly injure
cabbage, if they can thaw out gradually.
They should be kept at as even a tenn
perature as possible. Alternate thaw.
ing and freezing is very injurious, and
they should be sufficiently protected to
avoid this. Then, if good drainage is
provided, they will readily keep in
good condition.

No herd of cows can be comfortable
in cold barn or stable, lying on the
barn floor, constantly accumulating fer
tilizing material every time they lie
down. 1t is almost impossible to keep
COWS clean on level stable floor. The
floor should have three inches slant to-
ward the tight gutter in the rear made
expressly for holding all liquids aud
solids. With plenty of good bedding
and proper care COWS can be kept clean.
The card and brush should be used
daily. When once broken in COWS
enjoy it. A good clean herd of COWS,
with their hair all smooth, lying in the
right direction, their sides and udders
free from filth of all kinds, is beauti-
ful sight to look upon. One can take
pleasure In sitting down and milking
such COWS.

Temporary Preservation of Ripe
Fruit.

In case OF saving ripe fruits which
you are not quite ready to use, and
which are liable to speedy decay, they
may be preserved several days by being
covered with cold water. A writer
who had some ripe pears says: II filed
my wash.boiler full of pears-a stone
crock would have been better, I think
put muslin cloth over them, then
put on weight and filed up with clear
cold water. They kept splendidly for
two weeks, giving me plenty Of time to

One of the uses of giving COWS salt,
especially in hot weather, is that it acts
as preservative in the system. Every
one accustomed to test milk can tell by
its flavor whether the COWS have been
