growth OF the animal tends also to
weaken 1t and render 1t liable 70 dis
ease, and less able 10 resist disease
when IL comes. Hence the greatest
precaution should be taken by the
farmer to prevent disease, the prin-
ciplc, ''Prcvention is better than
cure" being the invariable rule with
him. OF the predisposing causes to
disease, want OF cleanliness may be
placed first as most frequent and
most unjustfablc; secondly, inefficient
shelter; and lastly, contagion. The
worst diseases which live stock are
subject to are undoubtedly conta-
gious; therefore, as in man, 50 In
animals, the best possible thing when
the least disease occurs in the stock
is to thoroughly isolate the affected
animals. So important to the gen.
eral agriculture Of the Kingdom Is
this subject Of contagious diseases in
cattle, that the Government takes IL
up, but not efficiently. for though
something is done TO prevent the
spread of disease, little is done to
prevent the introduction Of disease.

THE GRIPPE.

The grippe is raging to non-prece-
denied extent in this country, and not
only in this country but all over the
world. In the presence Of such an
epidemic as this the only thing that
we can do is to fight it with resolute
courage, and it is important to begin
with its first attack. When 1T assails
you get a bottle of REDS GERMAN
CoUeH AND KIDNEY CURE and take it
freely. 1t contains no poison, and
there is nothing init deleterious. You
can give it to the weakest infant or
the strongest man with benefit in
both cases. 1t is a stimulant, and it
aids the digestion while it extermi-
mates the rnicrobe. 1t incites the
kidneys to action and relieves the
lungs from their burden while it
gently relaxes the bowels. When this
is done the grippe is conquered, and
what is more, there is much less dan
ger of a second attack, for all the
organs are then in a healthy condi-
tion and able to withstand disease.

LIVE STOCK.


An English writer says that the
question with the farmer is how best
to feed the horses required on the
farm. The food OF the, horse is nat
urally grass, and this will be the food
of the young horse, with the addition
of some hay in winter. AS the horse
increases in age, so will it increase i'm
working capacity, and it's food will
have to become : correspondingly
richer. OF the richer food, hay, oats
and beans have been used from time
immemorial. The hay is first cut
fine in the chat cutter, anc then is
termed hay chaff; straw chaff may
also be given to the horses with adj
vantage, mixed with its other food.
Turnips and clover well cut up and
the former pulped, or even mashed,
may be used with advantage in the
winter and early spring. Subse-
quently vetches or tares will supply
an early and valuable green food be-
fore putting the horse out to Craze A
horse must be fed frequently, and
its food being prepared for it,
grain being crushed, and hay, straw,
roots, etc, cut up. The stable must
We well ventilated, and contain a sup
ply OF fresh water.
Such is briefly the main outline of
farming with regard tn live stock; the
objects which the farmer has I'm view,
how to attain them and how science
has helped him. In the treatment OF
stock the main object on all farms
will be to keep them healthy, and
that at the present day Is becom-
ing more and more difficult. Every

THE DAIRY.
simple Feeding Rules.

The live weight of an animal de-
cides its ration OF support. 1t should
be1equal to % per cent. in dry food
matter; or not less than thirty pounds
per day of good hay, or its equivalent
in grain, straw ensilage or roots for a
thousand-pound cow.
No definite details can be given for
feeding a good cow. Her food will
depend on the owners supplies, her
appetite, digestion, and the value Of
her marketable goods.
For standard quality COW of 800
to 900 pounds weight at flush, making
twenty-five pounds to thirty pounds
Of milk per day, or one and one-half
pounds to two pounds of butter, it
will be safe to feed her rich, digesti-
BILE food. Her bran should be about
! per cent. of her live weight,
peas and oats ground, about i per
cent, and cotton seed meal or a mix
ture of linseed cake meal and cotton
seed meal in equal proportions, equal
to ! per cent. live weight, clover hay,
1 per cent, ensilage, roots, as carrots
or mangels, or green feed in summer,
according to their quality, such a
quantity as will yield not less dry
matter than 2per cent. of live weight.
The above ration has been sug-
gested because it represents good
variety Of food, is rich, or has close,
nutritive ratio of about l:5 to l:54,
and will pay for standard fourteen
poundD cow.
The value of manurial residues must
always be born in mind in choosing
food. The richer the food the higher
the manure value, and the greater
the care required TO preserve it.
The ration here given Is a winter
one, and COW as good as the one in
mind would earn from 60 cents to 81
day in milk, cream or butter.
How much to feed and how rich
the food should be must always be
governed by the produce and its value
from calving to drying of. Intelli-
gence and discretion must be exercised
from day to day. Weigh and register
every day, or at least every ten days,
the cows products. Reduce or increase
her food supplies, according to her
condition from calving and earning
power of her produce.
The net food cost may be taken at
about two-thirds the value Of the ra-
tion. The balance is the value of the
manure
Always give salt in the food, never
less than one ounce per day, or J per
cent. of the live weight per month.
The length Of the milking period of a
well-bred and well-fed COW depends
on regular and persistent milking by
her attendant. 1t should be 800 to
$50 days, or within month of calv-
ing.
Never feed turnips, cabbage, or any
thing which taints milk. Make
changes gradually.

Dairy Dots.

The more succulent foods make
the more watery milk and oily cream,
which churns the easier. Hence en-
silage and roots are favorable to but
ter-making, the oils principally giving
butter its flavor
THE COW must not have to travel a
long distance for water. IL she does
she will go without il until she gets
very thirsty and feverish and then
drink until she is painfully uncom-
Portable Both conditions are I'M
favorable for milk secretion.
SHADE is almost as important In
summer as shelter from cold in win
ter. See that the cow has plenty of
feed and clean water while in pasture,
SO that she can fill her stomach in a
short time and then lie down in the
shade, chew her cud, enjoy herself
and make milk.
MIXED pasture grasses, including
clover, make well-balanced summer
ration; but little dry food is relished
exceedingly, and is beneficial. Some
of the best dairymen not only feed
hay, but cornmeal and bran, or some
other form of grain, all summer, to
advantage.
In case of trouble about churning,
look first to the temperature. A
higher or lower one NAV remove
the trouble. Next, see that the
cream is not too thick. II it is, thin
with water of the churning tempera-
ture. Using skinned milk would
only be adding more of the same
viscous material. But If the cream
is not viscous, but simply lacks fluidity
the addition of skinned milk may do.

Household Notes.

GREASY kettles wash much better
If taken while hot.
MOsT fruit stains can be taken from
table linen by pouring boiling water
over the stain before wetting the
cloth in cooler water.
AN exchange recommends punches
OF green tansy strewn around, as a
remedy for red ants in the house.
Another recommends dry saltOr brim-
stone.
NEAT housekeepers do not use the
dish towel about the oven, or to lift
hot dishes from the stove. A stove
cloth is as important as buster or
dish towel.
THE fragrant pillows are comfort,
il only they are not covered with so
much finery that one cannot use
them. White covers that admit Of
being washed are the most satisfac-
tory. Sweet ferns, pine needles or
hops are agreeable.
To MAKE tins shine wash them in
hot soap-suds, dip a dampened cloth
in fine sifted coal ashes, then polish
with dry ashes.
In washing cloths it is well to re-
member that too much bluing renders
clothes yellow after time. mex
perienced or careless servants think
the more bluing in the water the
better for the wash. and it is diff
cult matter to convince them that the
clothes will look far better IL only a
small quantity Is used.
THE first rip in glove should be
mended at once, using very fine
needle and sewing silk for this pur-
pose. A tear is not so easily repaired.
First work around the edges In button
hole stitch, then draw these stitches
together in the center, working over
and over. If this is done neatly the
tear will hardly be noticed.
THE time has passed when a man
who cooked or who engaged in other
feminine employments was considered
less entitled to respectful considera-
tion. There are men dressmakers,
men milliners and cooks, and there
might be greater number of boys
willing TO give household service to
their mothers when servants can not
be hired.

THE PoULTRY-YARD.
Ground Homes for Poultry.

Ground bones and cut bones are diff
ferent. A fresh, green bone cannot
well be ground. 1t may be crushed or
pounded, but not easily ground.
Hand-mills are in use that permit of
grinding bones that have become hard
and dry, or have been steamed and
heated, but the green bones must be
pounded or cut IN fine pieces with
knives. There is great difference
in the value OF fresh bones from the
butcher and those that have been ex-
posed until they are dry. Green bones
contain quite proportion of meat
and cartilage, and are greedily eaten
by all classes of fowls.
