A Snnka Story.

In the month of July, some four or
five years ago, was out shooting fiori-
can with friend Of mine in Guzerat.
We had had fairly good luck, and as we
were making our way to the railway
station to catch the early train back TO
Ahmcdabad 1 noticed my friend who
was shooting in line on my left sudden
ly point his gun at something on the
ground and fire, and on asking what IL
was he said 1t was a large black cobra,
and that he had shot 1t in two pieces,
the head portion disappearing down q
hole. As we were in hurry to catch
the train we went on. but very soon
heard one of the heaters calling out,
and looking back saw him running to-
ward us with the lead portion of the
snake following him with the hood ex-
banded. 1t appeared that he had re-
mained behind trying to dig out the
cobra, and.the reAnlt was that Il came
out of the hole and went for him. Of
course the snake could not get much
pace on him, and was quickly killed.

FEEDING MICH COWS.
How Co Maintain Even Production
Throughout the season.

How Co Maintain Even Production
Throughout tho season.
One OF the important items in secur-
Ing the best profit from the cows is to
have an even flow of milk we'll main
tanned throughout the season. On many
farms there are cows that for short
season after they come in fresh yield
good flow Of milk, but this soon be-
gins to fail, especially II care is not
taken In the feeding and management,
and at the end OF seven or eight months
the quantity they give is SO small that
they are allowed to go dry. Many
cows are kept that II charged fair
price for the food they eat would not
pay for their keep.
The first important item Is to have
good cows. Then they must be well
fed, even In summer. While during
growing season the pastures can be
largely relied upon; it will pay to give
also light feed of bran and corn meal,
or bran and middlings. Then in order
to make sure of a good supply of
cheap food 1t will also be good plan
to plant some crop like sweet corn,
fodder corn, millet, sorghum, or some
thing of this kind that can be used at
any time when needed. There should
be change of feed occasionally, so
as to keep the COW with good
appetite, as the more good food
the good dairy COW consumes the
more good milk she will give. 1t will
also be good plan to divide the pas
lures so that she can be changed from
one to the other at least every ten days.
The cows will do much better than If
they are compelled to depend upon one
pasture. Besides, by changing, there
will be less waste of feed. With all
animals there is natural inclination
to eat the tender, sweeter growth, and
in doing this, when kept in one pas
ture, there will be more or less that
will grow up and mature seed. BY
dividing up the pastures and changing
from one to the other, grass will all be
eaten down more evenly. There should
always be sweet, nutritious grasses in
the pastures, so that the cows can get
enough to satisfy their appetites with
out tramping too long or too far. The
quieter and more comfortable the cows
can be kept the better the results.
Feed to keep the COW in good, thrifty
condition. 1t is not possible to make a
good dairy COW fat, but good treatment
will keep her in good condition. Her
food will be converted into milk rather
than fesh.-St. Louis Republic.

DIET AND DIGESTION.

Effects of Lack of Exercise Is Counterncte
by Care AS to Diet.
Lack of physical exercise always, or
nearly always, brings on trouble with
the digestive organs, and this is natur-
ally the most common ailment in
cities. 1t has therefore become habit
selves to a particular course of food,
known as dieting" Every prudent
person wishes to know what will best
agree with him, and it is the expert
ence Of almost everyone that all sys-
TENS of dieting fall short of perfection.
Few persons, at the beginning, inherit
digestive organs of perfect functional
activity. Hence, n careful and proper
method of eating is a necessity for
most people of the nineteenth century.
Quantity is an important element of
the question. Nature requires a GER
tain bulk of food material. In health,
q person must at times eat other things
besides the most nourishing, or the
diet will be too much re-
stricted. A variety of food-the
greater the better, within reasonable
limits-is better than too much or too
frequent indulgence in few articles.
Thorough mastication is essential to
good digestion. This is conductive to
deliberate eating, as well as to bet
ter preparation of the food for subse-
quent digestive action. Mr.. Gladstone
is said to have enjoyed his long-con-
tinued good health by having adopted
early in life a habit of taking twenty
five bites to each morsel of meat.
Those whose digestive organs are en-
feebled derive the most nourishment
from milk, or from diet composed of
ground beef, toast, or thinly-sliced
bread and hot water. Proper supple
mentary exercise should be added by
the physician. 1t should always be
understood, however, that a perfect
diet includes more than n mere atten-
ton to foods and drinks. 1t involves,
for instance, regular out-of-door exer.
else as stimulation to the action of

How to pruno rlow,rlns shrubs.

The proper system Of pruning flow
ering shrubs, according to the best Of
authority, is one that will induce an
abundance of young wood, and this can
only be accomplished by the trimming
out of all two-year-old growth-that
which has already fowered-cutting
out the old shoots close to the ground,
so that the new growth will push out
from the root of the plant. II the
bush makes too strong and rank a
growth, moderate amount of pruning
in winter will not lessen the bloom to
any extent, especially as the extreme
ends of the young wood do not flower.
