DOn'ts.

Don't scare the colts to make them
get out of the way; don't leave the colts
exposed to the storms to make them
tough; don't speak in loud, cross tone
of voice to your teams; don't strike
your horses without a cause; don't go
off and leave your team without being
tied, as that often results in serious
runaway; don't 90 behind strange
horse without speaking; don't overload
your team, as there is limit to their
strength and overlooking often causes
balky horses; don't hitch your horses
with one trace shorter than the other,
as that is often the cause of sore
shoulders; don't forget to salt your
horses once week, or, better still,
keep salt where they can get it as they
want it; don't neglect to feed your
horses bran and oil meal occasionally,
for it aids digestion; don't forget to
water regularly and often in hot
weather; don't sell the best brood
mares and breed the blemished and in
ferior ones; don't breed to grade STALL
ion; don't forget to be kind.-Stock-

Better " Go Slow"

Our advice always has been ego slow
with new crops" 1t is far better to
experiment on small scale with any
new variety to see if your soil, climate,
mode Of culture, ETC., are suited to the
successful growing of such crop.
Many farmers too often rush headlong
into the extensive culture of some new
crop, only to meet with failure and dis
aster. Mr.. T. T. Lyon, the well-known
veteran pomologist, gives the excellent
advice to general planters, to let novel
ties alone. He estimated that there
was money enough wasted on worthless
fruits to support the poor of the coun-
try.-Erchange.

Restoring Timothy Meadows.

Many eastern farmers are the owners
of old, long seeded meadows in which
the timothy has grown thin and do
not know how best to restore them to
a productive condition. They have
not manure enough to cover more than
very small part of the field each year.
If they use it this way, the manure
made from the rest of the farm goes to
the meadow, which probably does not
pay as well even at the best as do the
cultivated portions. Besides, if this
is done, the other parts of the farm soon
will not pay to cultivate. Here is what
American Cultivator advises:
You must make the meadow furnish
the means for manuring itself. This
can be best done by blowing as soon in
the spring as you can, cultivating till
you make good seed bed, and then
drilling corn with dressing of nitrate
of soda and phosphate You can afford
this on corn which you could not afford
for the grass. In fact, on poor land, as
your timothy meadow is, You cannot
afford to grow corn fodder without ma
nure of some kind. The dressing of nj
trate will make the timothy sod rot,
and in fall after the corn is off plow so
as to turn this rotted sod to the surface
and SOW with liberal seeding of timo-
thy seed. In the spring top dress the
piece with the manure that the corn
stalks made and sow clover. You can
afford to add some more nitrate of soda
in the spring, especially as the manure
will not nearly cover the meadow. Tim
othy thus sown with clover will make a
good meadow for five or six years, after
which it will need blowing up and re-
seeding. Timothy without clover rarely
gives good crop more than one or two
years after seeding, and then is not as
good for blowing up as land on which
clover has been grown.

Condiments for Stock.

Agricultural EditOr:-I have noticed
your article in the issue of February 81
relating to Thorley's Cattle Food and
other matters. There was a consider
able amount of it purchased by farm
ers in Franklin county, VT, for trial.
1t is hardly time yet to get definite re-
suits from trials made as to the benefits
received from its use, if any, which
would be quite interesting and may be
profitable to know. / am much in
clined to think, however, from eXpe-
rience thus far, that it may be benef-
cial in several respects, which l will
not undertake to specify now One OBJ
lection to its use, to any large extent,
will be its cost, and still the lend may
justify the means" in this respect; but
it would seem that, in such large guam
titles as it would be desirable Tor a
farmer to buy to get the best results, it
ought to be considerably cheaper. This
food, as understand it, should be fed
to animals right along every day, and
not occasionally as a medicine.
The mixture you publish in the art-
Gle referred to, as given by the editor
of the Montreal Journal of agriculture,
may be very good for the purpose spec
fed, but, as understand it, it is not to
be fed regularly but as required to keep
an animal in condition. Am right in
this? Again, you do not state how
much is to be given at time, which is
very important to know, and to find
out is why l write this article. Def
mite directions are given for the use of
the Thorley Food for all kinds of stock,
but the amount of that for feed and
of the mixture referred to might not,
and probably would not, lie at all alike;
so please enlighten the farmers little
in this respect, as it may be for their
advantage to make use of the recipe
given in the issue referred to.

Road Improvement in New Jersey.

The New Jersey system of state aid
In roadbuilding looks to the gradual
construction Of system of free macad-
amized roads. The advantage of such
roads is no longer matter of debate.
The enormous tax upon agriculture of
system of wretched mud roads is pretty
generally understood. 1t is impossible
to convert all the mud roads into firm,
dry turnpikes at once. No community's
resources would be equal to that. The
work must be done gradually, if done
at the public expense, and that the pub
lie should pay for 1t and keep the roads
free is becoming popular idea. The
tollgate has become obnoxious. 1t is
not as heavy burden on the farmer as
the mud road, but it is heavier than
would be the tax necessary to pay for
doing the work at public expense.

An Insane Hen.

Barnyard fowl often seek the branches
of tree for roost at night, but rarely
do you hear of hen seeking these alti-
tudes to lay an egg. Mrs. Charlotte
Hubbard, a Clinton lady, is the owner
of hen which chose such place to
hatch out brood of chickens. About
seven feet from the ground, where sew
eral limbs fork out from the trunk of an
apple tree, the fowls laid number of
eggs, and after carefully protecting
them during the period of incubation,
Matched out brood of lively chicks,
who soon scrambled out of the tree on
terra frma, and commenced their nat
ural vocation of scratching for grubs.
This is rare instance of chickens be-
ing Matched in a tree. - Connecticut

REMARKS.-As for the prescription
furnished by Editor Fust, we suppose
the dose would not exceed half pint,
to be repeated like all condition pow
ders, until the desired effect is pro-
duced or until it is found not to an
swer. The writer is now trying " Nu-
tritone " with his horses and cows, and
the result, if any noticeable one is
shown, l will try to give to the readers

HEALTH is a science just as much as
astronomy and algebra are, and its
principles can be mastered by study
and practice. 1t is sheer ignorance to
suppose that bottle of bitters will
make amends for over-indulgence in
box of sweets, that dose of pills will
undo the evil of over-eating, or that a
day spent in dawdling will Offset the
injury of night spent in dancing.

&C. I. Hood g. Co., Lowell, Mass:
al cannot praise Hoods Sarsaparilla enough
for what it has done for my boy. Some four
years ago. when six years old George was
attacked by hip disease in his right leg. We
had to get him a pair OF crutches with which
he was able to move about, but became
badly deformed. We had to have his right leg
lanced just above the knee. In few weeks a
second sore broke out, both discharging freely.
Agonizing pains afflicted him, he could not bear
to be moved. his growth was Stopped and

He Was a Mere Skeleton.

He had no appetite, and 1t was hard work to
make him eat enough to keep him alive. A few
weeks later we had his hip lanced, and follow
ing this five other eruptions broke out making
eight running sores in all. We did all we could
for him, but he grew weaker every day, al
though we had three of the best physicians.
AS last resort we were prevailed upon
by relatives who had taken Hoods Sarsa-
parllla with beneficial results to give the medl-
cine trial. We got one bottle about the nrst
OF March, 1892, and he had taken the medicine
only few days when his appetite began to
improve. When he had taken one bottle he
could move about a little with his crutches
which he had not been able to use for the pre-
ceding three months. We continued faithfully
