THE cows cUD.

The cows cud is a quantity of the
food that is brought up from the first
stomach after the food has been swal-
lowed and the animal is resting and
has time to remasticate it more COM
pletely. Between the first and second
stomachs there is receptacle about
five inches long and the size of the
gullet. A portion of the food is pressed
into this part of the gullet and is
brought up into the throat and mouth,
where it is chewed slowly. This food
may be seen ascending the gullet when
the COW is ruminating. The cud is not
any distinct thing, as some suppose,
that may be lost, but is simply por-
tion of the food which comes from the
stomach in the way described. When
q COW is said to lose her cud, nothing
is lost or dropped, but by reason Of
indigestion the action of the stomach
is suspended, and it is restored as soon
as the trouble is removed by any
simple medicine. The most effective
is dose of pint of raw linseed oil OF
melted lard.--New York Times.

Attacked bx Wild Hoxs.

Charles Stoll pioneer settler of

years of age and there are many resi-
dents there now who are his seniors,
but he was the first man to turn the
virgin soil of that prosperous section
of Yolo County.
During all of Mr.. Stoll's residence in
Hungry Hollow he never experienced
O more thrilling adventure that oc-
Cured to him last Tuesday. Arming
himself with his rife he went for a
hunt among the chapparal and under
brush that abound in the neighboring
hills. He had not proceeded far before
he started up drove of wild hogs.
At first he imagined he had aroused q
den of bruins. The hogs made a vicious
attack, and drove Mr.. Stoll to the
boughs of tree. Not until he had
killed three of the brutes did the rest
take to cover and permit him to descend.
He returned to his home, secured the
services of hired man and wagon
and returned for his game. Arriving
ut the scene of his adventure, he was
again set upon by wild hogs. OF course
he was safe in the wagon, but the
horses were not only paralyzed with
fear, but liable to be crippled by the
vicious attacks of the hogs, so Mr..
Stoll concluded to beat hasty retreat
and leave his game to be devoured by
vultures and wild beasts. Woodland

GROWING POTATOES.

To grow potatoes, select the best
soil you can get, avoiding ground that
is liable to overflow, clear off all the
trash, and if the ground is not very
rich apply good dressing of well
rotted manure and then pillow as deep
as you can. Then harrow until the
soil is in good condition. Then as soon
as danger of frost is past plant for
early crop. First of June plant peach
blows. When ready to plant take a
pillow and run deep burrows three and
one-half feet apart. Gut your potatoes
in pieces, one or two eyes to the piece,
drop eighteen inches apart in these
burrows, one piece in place. Then
take hoe and cover, putting IN inch
of soil over each piece. Cultivate as
soon as the plants are well up and keep
filling in the burrows, and you will not
be troubled with weeds in the rows
and will not need to do any hand
wedding. Cultivate once a week till
they bloom. New York Observer.

current being brought from the college
laboratory by line three-quarters of
mile in length, conducted by the stu
dents themselves. A ten horse power
motor was used for ginning and press
ing cotton, thrashing grain, cutting up
feed stuff, etc., and gave entire satis-
faction. In every community where
there is water power, electricity could
be economically generated and used not
only for the above mentioned purposes,
but also to run saws, planning machines,
pumps, lathes, grindstones, cider
presses, sorghum mills, churns, sewing
machines--in short, for everything re-
quiring power. What farmer would
not welcome the exchange of smoky
lamps for electric lights? The arc light
may also prove useful in market gar
dening, some recent experiments made
in France having shown that it has
marked effect in stimulating plant
growth when sunlight is not to be had.
Where sufficient water power is not
available, windmills might be used in
connection with system of storage
batteries. Such q utilization of the
wasted energies of nature would put off
the coming of the coal famine that
threatens future generations. --Inven-

spR1NerIslE GREENS.

Spinach is one of the springtime
vegetables that should stand near the
top of the list in healthfulness. But it
is seldom properly cooked. 1t should
be thoroughly, perfectly freed from
sand and dust by many washings, in
cold water, and then put in a close
saucepan and covered closely, without
one drop of water, over a moderate fire.
In an hour or more it will be perfectly
cooked; then it should be drained and
chopped, and butter and salt added
The old fashioned way was to almost
drown it in the liquor from corned
beef--and thus half its nutriment and
medicinal properties we're lost, and the
other half so disguised that the luscious
leaves might just as well have been cab
bage, or any other sort of ''greens. "
Young beets and the ''foliage thereof, "
are considered fine by many; but we
have been told, and found it true, that
if the leaves are held up to the light,
looked through and examined, so much
life is seen between the outside and the
lining of them that no one will care to
eat "beet green's thereafter. Our own
eyesight is generally convincing. New

BREEDING sows.

A SOW that is good breeder should
be kept for several years, or until she
forms some bad habit, of which unruli-
ness and eating her young are the two
that give most trouble. When the SOW
gets her full growth her litters will be
larger, healthier and more uniform,
often without single titman. In the
first litter, especially, if the SOW be q
young one, there will be two and
sometimes as many as three pigs that
are either dead at birth or are SO un-
dersized that they are not worth rails
ing. A three or four-year-old SOW,
narrowing two litters of pigs year,
will often give more profit than an
average COW, and not cost SO much to
keep nor SO much labor to care for.
Tie chief care with breeding SOW
after she gets her growth is not to let
her get too fat. She will have an enor-
nous appetite, bit it should be salts

young, with the coarsest feed. Skim

FERTILIZERS AND cow-PEAs.

The manner of properly treating and
applying fertilizers is yearly receiving
more consideration among farmers.
On this subject the Georgia Expert
ment Station tells Southern farmers
that the best results can only be OBJ
tanned from concentrated fertilizers by
using them on the best lands, and not
by scattering them at the rate of 100
or 200 pounds to the acre over large,
worn-out plantation. Nor should the
mistake be made of applying large
amounts of concentrated fertilizers on
worn-out land. The larger the appli-
cation the more important it becomes
that the land should be in the best pos
sible condition, such as it would have
been left in by a good crop of small
grain, with thorough and deep plow-
ing and narrowing.
The practice of sowing cow-peas is
strongly urged for renovating the soil
and for hay. Nitrogen is the most i'm
portant element of plant food because
it is indispensable to the plant and is
deficient in all worn or partially ex-
hausted soils. 1t is the most uniformly
effective element of fertilizer for all
grains, grasses and cotton. While the
most expensive, if bought in the mar
ket, it may be drawn from the air by
cultivating such plants as clover, pea
nuts, vetches, burrclover, lucerne and
especially the cow-pea, which, if prop
erly utilized, will be more valuable to
the Southern farmer than red clover
has been to the farmers of the North
and West. New York World.

when read of those charming dresses ard
