strength. Some horses will show
an inclination to proceed after
they have throughly rested.
Professor Tracy put five
COWS in the hands of a poor
milker for two weeks. and then
gave them to a good milker for
the same time, neither mixer
knowing that a 224.5 pounds
(44.9 pounds per cow gain in
quantity of milk by the change.
1t has been demonstrated
that The straw from a wheat
crop can be made to take the
place Of hay if cut and fed in
connection with grain. This
encourages farmers to give more
attention to the storage of the
straw, and to keep it in a clean,
bri 5ht condition.
If it can he done only oc-
casionally it will be found that
a thorough washing of the fami-
ly COW will be of great advantage
Kidding her hide of insects and
cleaning away the dirt, thus
permitting of a better condition
Of the skin. The ndder should
be washed at every milking.
Exposure to the lirect rays
of the sun. without Shade or
shelter, is to cause great suffer
ing to swine and sheep. During
the heat Of the day the animals
will cease grazing and seek
shade. A visit to the pasture
viii show exposed stock to be
painting and suffering from the
heat.
s-~W!len the time arrives for
cutting the corn in the field it
should be stored in the barn us
soon as web cured. Leaving it
stacked in the fields invites
waste and deterioration Of quail
ity. If there is insufficient room
in the barn provide a cheap
shelter. Exposure destroyes
one half the value of the crop.

No article of furniture is
Iof such every day use and
ornamental as women who
laugh! The ability to see the
bright side of things, or if there
is no bright side, Of shining up
the dark one, is the most de-
sirabIe of all. A disconsolate
man is bad wrought, but OF all
the lamentable things in the
world, a morose woman is the
worst; no wonder the cat II
