To Break Hens of Egg Eating.

An effective plan is to take four or five
eggs, remove their contents by breaking
a small hole in the side. and then fill the
shells with the following mixture:
GROUND mustard, nve parts; cayenne pep
per, n part; wheat -four, one part: mix
and add just enough water to make the
mass stick together. Place a couple of
these filled eggs upon the floor, and they
will be eaten greedily; then give II or
more of the others as needed. Usually
three or four eggs will be sufficient for
a flock of a dozen. Repeat the dose on
the following dayif necessary. Usually
it will not be necessary to do {. 1t will
be well, after this, to keep two or three
china OF clay nest eggs on the floor of
the house for the hens to pick at if they
wish to-. Nests of twelve inches in depth
should be provided for the hens if the
boxes are On the floor. Nest boxes that
hang against the wall are still better.
Use nc nest eggs in the nests; they are
unnecessary and often aus broken eggs.

Northern Stock Dies in Florida,

Eastern and southern Florida are
clothed with grass, but of such poor
quality that cattle must have an unlim-
tied range. After the annual burning
the grass is somewhat tender, but soon
becomes wiry, and in winter, though it
may be green, it is not relished, and the
herds resort to the margins of lake and
river, where the nourish ten
der grasses.
In a wet winter, when these prairie
lands are more or less submerged, the
suffering and loss are great. The range
therefore affords a stror.gs contrast to
west and southwest Florida, and the
native stock, as may be expected, is
vastly inferior. To the lankiness of the
original Texas steer is added a diminu-
tive size.
In Florida, however, it is sheer folly
to turn out northern cattle and expect
them to get a living. If this were the
only difficulty, the animals' feed might
be supplemented by barn feeding, but
unfortunately is not. One most extraor-
binary thing is the disastrous appetite
for sand often shown by northern cattle,
so that it is necessary to keep them on a
board floor and never allow them to get
to the ground.
The southern OF Texas fever destroys
many of these shipped in cattle when
placed on the range. A western man
accustomed to keep stock on the range
in summer, with plenty of hay and corn
in winter, brought his horses, COWS and
poultry, and in spite Of remonstrance
let them run in the woods, the result
being that all have died. Home raised
stock withstands the climate.-Ex.

BISMARCK WEEKLY TRIBUNE: FRIDAY. DEC. 9 1892
CHANGES IN SHEEP HUseANpRy.
The Old Way Has Passed and the New
Must Come. .

The Old Way Has Passed and the New
Must Come. -
To a certain extent it may truly be
said of the outlook for American sheep
owners that old things have liz large
part passed away, and that sheep hus-
bandry, like other vocations, will re-
quire some readjustment to best fit in
with the newer conditions to be en-
countered. Already cosmopolitan COM
petition, with its auxiliaries of rapid
and cheap transportation, has ushered
in an era of low prices for wool, and
nothing short of rashness itself will ven
ture to fix the limits of refrigeration and
it's influence upon meat values in the not
remote future.
Assurance that the pressure upon
prices for flock products, already per-
ceptible, is liable to intensity has i'm
PEELED Thoughtful students to contem-
plate the possibilities of more nearly
than heretofore combining in the Same
animal the higher elements of profit
from both flesh and fleece, not so much
by a mingling of bloods of established
types as by developing within each char
acteristics hitherto left in sbeyance;
not through the application of new
theories, but by persistent adherence to
recognized rules in selection and ali
mentation.
Merino breeders long since learned
that under the ordinary flock regimen
of the agricultural states young animals
taken from eastern focks could be re-
lied on to exceed their parents in size,
while every years importations serve
to emphasize the value of root crops in
imparting the plumpness and flavor that
have made English mutton the standard
with epicures.
Some breeders have taken heed of
these hints. More of them than the
casual observer would suspect have been
cautiously feeling their way along the
lines indicated, and when the best speci-
mems Of all the types are brought to-
gether at the Columbian exposition in
1898 some surprises are likely to ensue
for those who have spent too much time
in looking backward at the paths others
have made instead Of straight ahead
upon fields as yet but sparsely occupied
and teeming with possibilities of reward
for those who go forward.-Breeder's
Gazette.

raw sores, which are quite common
when the halter is left OF the colt day

only one night to teach me that I had no
use for web halters.
However comfortable the shelter, there
are few days during the winter when q
strong, healthy weanling colt needs it.
From 4 or 5 in the evening until the sun
is an hour OR two high the next morning
he is the better for being under a roof
nibbling hay OF sleeping, but unless the
day be stormy or unusually cold it does
him good togather his food in the fields.
Theorists tell us how food is saved by
keeping the colts in a warm barn and
conserving the animal heat. That is all
right with cattle and hogs. We raise
them for meat. But with colts we want
muscle and flesh, and the theory and the
colts raised according to it are both UNI
sound. If the colts are fed their grain
ration at once on being taken to the sta
BILE they will usually ome up to the
gate at the proper time every evening",
especially if running in pasture in which
there are NJ other horses. If they do
not come up of their own accord they
should be brought up.-L. H. Granger

Mr.. Herbert Gardner, Gladstone's
president of the board of agriculture,
has proved himself as illiberal as his
predecessor, Chaplin. He says he cannot
let up on the prohibition against the en-
trance of foreign live cattle into Eng

this prohibition England is almost the
only country in Europe that is free from
foot and mouth disease. Well, it is
rather a satisfaction, on the whole, to
read after this that some cattle afflicted
with pleuro-pneumonia have got admis-
sion to the sacred soil of Great Britain
from Canada, of all the places in the

A poultry breeder says: "To produce
large %carcasses, cross a Dorking cock on
a Cochin or Brahma hen, and the next
year use a Plymouth Rock cock on the
progeny of the Dorking and Cochin.
The result will be a fowl larger than its
parents, and which will combine many
excellent qualities for market"
Australia is going ahead Of the rest of
the world in both wool and mutton pro-
duction. The breeders there had phe-
nomenal success with merino wool.
Then they went to breeding for mutton
and shipping the product in refrigerator
ships to Europe. In all European cities
Australian mutton has place. It is not
so choice and delicate as Scotch or Eng
lish mutton, but it is good and far bet
ter than none for the people who eat it,
and who would otherwise get none at

Of the Australian sheep men are partic-
ularly to be commended to American
producers. It would drive a South Sea

with the way they are treated. Why

of her trousseau. She kindly allowed
sketches to be made of some of the prettiest
of them. One is a dark moss green cloth,
made with a Spencer waist, with wide
lapels, postiche, embroidered with dull
garnet chenille and silk. The skirt has a
narrow binding of astrakhan and a TRAN
gular embroidery on the right side of the
skirt. down which extends a and of astra-

Another gown was of pale green faille,
with a chestnut brown Observation-Disclosures.
The sleeves have puffs and bells at the
elbow bound with very narrow shell plated
gold colored ribbon, and two rows of this
same plating were laid around the edge of
the plain skirt. In the middle of the back
at the waist was a windmill bow of brown
velvet, with long ends falling nearly to the
bottom of the skirt. With every one Of
these costumes was a bonnet, or rather a
toque, to match, made of the dress material.
A third dress was rather more elaborate.
The corsage of petunia velvet was bound
with Russian sable and left open in the
front over lace and the mauve of the dress.
which was of mauve cashmere, dead fine in
quality. The sleeves were a combination
of puff, bell and coat. Round the upper
puff was tied a green velvet ribbon, and a
rich jet ornament fastened the chased silver
belt. The skirt had a cornet plat in the
back and, was ornamented by a narrow
band of sable. These three handsome
gowns are for home wear and visiting, in
which latter case they will be supplement-
ed with a most graceful and elegant wrap,
which is illustrated below.
This wrap is made of superb black Terry
velvet, with a faint CLINT and CLEAN of gold
in it's warp or wool. 1t is lined through
out with old gold colored satin and has a

in a curious puff. Along the front plaits,

superb pieces of black passementerie. The

THE COLTS IN WINTER.
A Warm Stable at Night and a Leathe,
Halter.

A Warm Stable at Night and a Leather
Halter.
About tbs best way is to train the
colts to the halter at weaving time or
before, and tie them in d comfortable
stable every night regularly until they
are turned out to grass next spring.
This takes some time and a little extra
trouble, but it certainly pays if a man is
raising decent grade colts. OF course
where a large number of colts are raised
it may be impossible to tie them all up
every night unless an extra man is hired
who is really not needed for anything
else, but most farmers can take the time
to attend to the colts Is they ought to
and never miss it.
The scarcity of labor in the west
makes us look askance at doing any
thing that does not absolutely have to
be done. Well, labor is scarce with us
during the working season, but if the
truth were known I think it would be
found that more labor goes to waste in
the west during the winter than in any
other section Of the country. E
The coltdoes not need especially warm
shelter. He cares more for comfort
than warmth. The stable or shed ought
to have a good roof which will not leak
and allow water to drip through, and
tight sides in which there are no cracks
to admit drafts of cold air. The doors
should be hung SO that they clear the
ground and shut tightly. How quickly
a man will growl if somebody leaves the
door open and a bit of cold air strikes
his back for q moment or two, yet he
leaves the door Of the colt stable two
inches ajar during some Of the coolest
winter nights because heis too lazy tc
clean away the snow or frozen mud
from the bottom of it.

The prizes offered at the New York
horse show amount to $$35 900, the larg-

Next to the hunters and high jumpers
the most notable horses at the New York
show were a class nearly as useless
the tandem drivers, four-in-hands and
high steppers. These bring in the
market high prices, and the man who
can breed and train them is sure to-
receive good value for them from some
of Americas rapidly growing class Of
millionaires. If rich and fashionable
people will pay for them, then they will
be useful horses for the farmer to raise.

are nowhere in this fashionable show,
but the entries even here were far more

mares and stations came from Canada,
which is conceded to head off the States
in heavy drafts. Ponies, trotters and
large carriage horses were we'll repre-
