very little good. Any observant
farmer will find this to be the case.
A better plan is to soak the corn for
FIVE or six hours before feeding. This
will soften the grain to a considera-
BILE extent, and when it is fed the
gastric juice of the stomach can act
upon the grain very readily. Then
its full value as feed will be taken up
by the blood and be of real worth to
the animal fed. A good plan is to
feed hay in small punches the first
thing in the morning, and twenty
minutes after the soaked corn. The
corn will be eaten much slower, and
it will better masticated by the teeth.
Oats-one peck-mixed with one
quart of bran, and just moistened
enough to get the millfeed to stick to
the grain, make the best feed for
MONDAY. 1t is not heating, and
therefore easy SO digest.
Horses, especially in the spring,
when the work is long and severe,
should have mixed feed, just moist
ened-not made wet, as it will scOur
them badly. At night the proper
ration is two quarts cracked corn,
one quart of heavy millfeed, little
salt added, along with half peck Of
cut hay, and medium-sized forkful
of hay in the nanger. This is a sub
stantial feed for a good-sized horse
doing hard work. A horse doing
light work may have this ration re-
duced one-fourth, and given instead
cheaper and more bulky food. such
as oats, straw, or fodder.-G Balti-

PACKING POULTRY.

Ifpoultry is to be shipped, after
picking it should be thoroughly
cooled and dried before packing.
Commence the packing by placing a
layer of straw, thoroughly cleansed
from dust, on the bottom of the box.
Bend the head of the first fowl under
it, and then lay it in the left-hand
corner, with the head against the
end of the box, with the back up.
Continue to fill this row in the same
manner until completed, then the
second row in the same way, letting
the head of the fowl pass up be-
tween the rumps of the two adjoin-
ing ones, which makes it solid. In
packing the last row reverse the or
der, placing the head against the
end of the box, letting the feet pass
under each other. When this is done
fill tightly with straw, so that the
poultry cannot move. This gives
frmness in packing that will prevent
moving in transportation. Care
should be taken that the box is full.
Then stamp the box with the name
of your farm. When this is done, we
feel that we have a reputation at
stake, and will ship no inferior arti-
cles, whether it be poultry, fruit or
other farm products. If we expect
fancy prices, we must ship fancy ar
tlcles.- American Poultry Yard.

HOW TO MAKE GOOD BUTTER.

The process of making butter is an
important one, for the best butter
may be spoiled, and poor butter
may be much improved,by the work
ing. When the butter is the size of
shot, draw off the buttermilk, and
then add cold water. Turn the
water off. Add more water, turn
the churn again several times until
the butter is gathered into Jumps
Take out the butter and place it up
on marble slab or a maple butter
worker. Take your paddle and
press and squeeze the butter, but
don't pat and mix it. This spoils
the grain. After the buttermilk is
entirely out, weigh the butter.
Spread it out upon the table, and
add one ounce of fine Ashton salt to
each pound of butter. Double the
butter over, and mash and squeeze it
until the salt is well worked through
the mass. Put the butter into
cool place until the next day. 1t
should then be revoked as before,
taking small piece at time,
spreading it out fiat and squeezing it,
and then doubling over until it is all
one color and no streaks are to be
seen.
The first working will take ten
minutes and the second about fifteen
minutes. Such butter will break
with a coarse, uneven fracture, and
will appear of granular texture.
If the cows have been well fed, the
cream properly cared for and churned
at a temperature of so degrees, the
butter will keep splendidly, and have
a sweet and fragrant scent, quite
free from acidity of any kind.
If it is packed for future use, pack
in stone jars; scald the jars first,
then rinse in cold water. Wipe
dry, and pack the butter in with the
paddle. Spread a clean cloth over
the top, and on this cloth put a half
inch layer of coarse salt. Then tie a
clean cloth over this, and set away
in cold dairy. An ice-house is bet
ter. Butter so made and packed
will keep for months, and, when
eaten, will be found of exquisite fla
vor. Not a particle will be wasted.
