sntritive value in it as in part grain ra-
ton. Hay is a bulky food, and the horse
has to eat too much of it to get the same
benefit that he would derive from the
part grain ration. He should have at
least thirty pounds day to furnish him
the proper nutriment if fed on that alone,
but such an amount would fill his stomach
too full to allow free action of the mus.
cles. 1t would make him logy, and he
would require more time to eat than he
might always be allowed in the busy sea-
son of the year. The better way, un-
doubtedly, is to feed say fifteen pounds
of hay day and make up the balance of;

but be separated by the hay so that the
gastric juices of the stomach may easily
act upon it. Oats and corn, or oats,
corn and rye can be ground together to
good advantage and mixed with moist-'
med hay. If oats are scarce, mix twice
iae amount of bran with the corn meal.
Middlings are good feed, and contain
rom thirty to fifty per cent. more nutri-
nent than hay. Oats alone with good
hay are about as good ration as most
farmers need look for. OF course, if a
horse is used for light work only he eau

aot need any, and if the hay doesn't cost
more than eight dollars or even ten dol

MAKING VINEGAR,

a still longer time, but when thus made

After this the sour cider should be

SAVING SEED CORN,

There is no better practice on the farm
than that of saving seed corn in the early
part OF autumn. Great loss and vexatior
are avoided thereby, and the wonder il
that so many farmers still refuse to avail
themselves of this investment, which all
ways yields profit of hundred to 9
thousand per cent. The method is Sc
simple and easy that all may partakt
thereof. In this latitude, corn begins to
ripen about the first of September. All
things considered, the earliest ears are
the best ones to select and save; go
through and examine the earliest that are
maturing, having in view well-developed
cars, medium sized grains, and bright
ness of color. In selecting yellow corn,
choose golden colored cars; for these
possess characteristics of oilness and hard
ness as we'll as that of beauty. Remove
oil of the shuck except enough to suspend
by, and then the ears are hung in high
and dry place and allowed to remain
there until wanted. have never known
seed to fail when gathered and cared for
in this way, even when the temperature
went down to thirty degrees below zero.

III Mexico there is species of acacia
called ''bulI's horn, from pair Of stipu-
lar spines that present the appearance of
a pair of horns OF an OK. The stems are
slender, not much thicker than ordinary
wrapping Irvine, while the spines are of
enormous size, sometimes nearly as thick
at the base as an ordinary lead pencil.
What particular purpose such compare

can serve in the economy Of the plant

Gently received by the Academy OF Nat
ural Sciences Of Philadelphia, through its

that there is an ant hole in every spine.
The Rev. Geo. Hens.ow, who Is, il not
the author, at least the leading advocate
OF the doctrine that flowers have varied
in taeir forms in response to the visits Of
insects, has recently spoken on the sub.
iect Of these acacia spiues in London,
and contends ths,, originally, 'no doubt,
these spines were rs small as in most
acacias, and that, Sin some way, they.
were agreeable 10 the ant. The continual
excitation Of the tissue by these ant visits
brought flow Of energy TO this point,
which resulted in the enlargement. aud
then the ant took advantage Of this en-.
largement to bore, aud TO make hons

produce form OF spine OF any use TO the
plant, but as a forced result Of the insect
habit. One of the most interesting facts
in connection with this subject is that,
ia the North Of Africa another species is
indigenous, which also has large spiues
out Of all proportion to any protective
need Of the plant. and a species Of ant
has there, also, colouized them, after the
manner of their Mexican allies. Whether
or not the explanation of Professor Hens
