Much more thrilling sensations were
in store for Dick That night, when the

Every farmer is supposed to be working
hard for success. Failure is very fire.
qUcnt. Thousands of times every year
Is it made apparent where dol
lars worth of good sound knowledge
would bring hundred dollars worth OF
return. The secret of good success is
sound knowledge to begin with. When
the farmer is willing to buy his knowl
edge, Just as he does his tea. coffee, and
groceries, and pay for it just as freely,
then. and not till then, will he hold an
even hand with other callings in society.
The following will show the result for
year with a thinking, reading Pcnnsyl

LIVE STOCK.
Feeding Horses.

Feeuihs
With horses. more than any other
class of stock, it pays To cut and grind
the feed. Ground grain is the cheapest
form in which nutriment can be given
to the working teams. In order to Sc
cure the best results in feeding ground
feed it will be quite an item to mix with
CIT hay, straw, or fodder. To feed corn
meal alone there is always a risk that it
will compact in the stomach and prove
more or less indigeStible Mixed with
some kind of rough cut feed makes it
more porous and less liable to do this
Overlooking will impair the digestion,
and is really more injurious than not feed
ing enough. Horses require less bulky
food than other classes of stock. During
the winter they need some grain. If the
corn and oats can be ground together
and small quantity Of oil meal be
added, and then the hay or fodder be cut
and all mixed together, a good ration
can be made up that will be healthy and
nutritious
Oats abound in heterogeneous, or muscle
forming materials, and for this reason
can always be fed to work teams and
growing colts to advantage. Sheaf oats
run through cutting box, and a small
quantity of bran and oil meal, make one
of the cheapest and best foods that can
be supplied to horses. They ought
never to be fed more than they will eat
up clean at each meal, and will thrive
better if they are given good variety.
Grinding the feed lessons the waste and
gives better opportunity of making up
complete rations than when everything
is fed whole. A good ration of the right
kind of food will give much more salts
factory results than an over feed Of
other materials.
II is not necessary that stock should
have roughness before them all the time
And by cutting and mixing with the
ground grain a good ration can be made
up that will lessen the waste, and also
the cost. Horses should be kept in good
condition, not necessarily fat but thrifty.
but at the same time it Is desirable TO DO
this as economically as possible, whether
the animals are kept for work, growth,
or breeding. II does not pay TO lessen
the expense ri keeping by allowing them
to run down in condition.
Cattle Hopes LIE in Good Cattle.
More plainly and still more plainly
from week to week IS demonstrated the
fact that the great runs of cattle in the
West and elsewhere are pressing more
hardly upon every branch Of the cattle
business than the ripeuing of choice
beeves. The men who are putting first
class cattle on the markets, while not
receiving the prices Of a few months
ago. are getting 50 near them that they

interval before the house cleaning time

knows how to make a cheesecIoth com

know how to make one, they may not
know how to manage with the cotton, 50
