Care for the Calves.

Every calf pasture should be pro-
vided with shed closed on three sides
as place of retreat from chilling
wind, pelting rain or burning sun. and
a constant supply of fresh water.
Calves always pay for such comforts
in increased growth and general
thriftiness. Other things being equal,
the gentler the calf, the more rapid
its growth, and the more comfortable
and contented the calf, the gentler it
is likely to be, especially if it associ-
ates its comforts with it's keeper. a
gentle keeper makes u gentle calf a
gentle calf gentle COW. Quite young
calves will learn to nibble shelled oats
and hay, if handful of each is placed
within easy reach. Tie the hay with
a cord and hang it where the calf can
pull at it without getting it under
foot. Put the oats in a shallow, wide
box. Remember that variety in food
stimulates the appetite and digestion,
health and growth following. At
regular feeding-time every calf should
have It's own feeding-place. and care
should be taken that the stronger do
not crowd out the weak. For this
purpose some sort of fastening should
be provided, either stanchions or hal

Ice Creams.

Vanilla Ice Cream.-The foundation
given in this rule is suitable for all
kinds of ice cream. One generous
pint Of milk, one cupful of sugar, half
cupful of sugar, half a cupful of
-four, scant two eggs, one quart OF
cream, one tablespoonful Of vanilla
extract, and when the cream is added,
another teacupful of sugar. Let the
milk come to boil. Beat the first
cupful OF sugar, the flour and eggs
together, and stir into the boiling
milk Cook twenty minutes, stirring
often. Set away to cool, and when
cool add the sugar, seasoning, and
cream, and freeze.
Lemon Ice Crsam.-Make the same
as vanilla cream, and flavor with one
tablespoonful Of lemon extract.
Orange Ice Cream.-Use the juice Of
six oranges instead of that OF lemons
Pineapple Ice Cream.-Mak the same
as vanilla, and flavor with teaspoon
full of extract of pineapple.
Strawberry Ice Cream. quart OF
cream, one quart of Strawberries, one
pint of sugar. Mash the sugar and
strawberries together, and let them
stand one or two hours. Add the
cream, rub through strainer into
the freezer, and freeze. Or, the cream
can be made the same as the vanilla
cream, and when halffrozen the whole
berries be stirred in.
Raspberry Ice Cream.-Make raspber-
nv ice cream the same as strawberry,
using little less sugar
Apricot Ice Cream. quart Of
cream, one generous pint of canned
apricot, one pint of sugar, the yolks
Of three eggs, one pint of water
Boil the sugar and water together
twenty minutes. Rub the apricot
through sieve and add it to the boil
ing syrup add also the beaten yolks
OF the eggs, and cook for six minutes,
stirring all the while. Take from the
fire and place in pan OF cold water
Beat the mixture ten minutes. Ii
cold at the end of that time, add the
cream, and freeze.
Peach Ice Cream.-Peach ice cream
can be made like the apricot, having
the pint OF peaches very generous
one.
Banana Ice Cream.-Make this the
same as the apricot, using, however,
only one cupful and half of sugar
and six bananas. More bananas can
be used if a strong flavor OF the fruit
is liked.

Sheep Husbandry.

Ii is not difficult to select 100 ewes
that will yield 1000 pounds OF wool
worth % cents pound, and raise 100
lambs worth $3.50 each, making an
income OF $500, says correspondent
of the New York Tribune. Among all
fiockmasters known TO me most are
doing better than this. The wool can
be taken to market in one wagon-loai.
To market any Of the grains to the
amount of $3.50 a team would have to
go at least five times and haul each
time over twice the weight and to
market the same value of potatoes
would require fifteen journeys. The
lambs may be driven to market.
There is a great saving in crops that
can travel to market themselves. No
crop Of grain of equal value could be
transported to market within 800 per
cent of the cost.
In winter sheep are to have colnfor-
table quarters, and be fed twice day
At parturition they need closer atten-
ton, and when at pasture they should
be seen once day, and all Of this is
no more care than should be bestowed
upon other animals, hence | cannot
see where the much talked-of extra
care" comes in. 1t is easy enough
to keep one hundred sheep year for
$3.50 and sell their product for $500,
and the soil is growing better. a
great draw back to sheep husbandTy
is dogs, but thinking farmers and the
agricultural press call so loudly and
persistently for the suppression Of
this nuisance that lawmakers cannot
much longer turn a deaf ear to IT
with safety to their continuance In
office. Meantime let it borne in mind
that statistics show that on the aver
age each dog kills sheep during his
lifetime.
