SOUP FOR ANIMALS.

At recent meeting of English
veterinarians one speaker said that in
his district he heard of many farmers
who obtained sleeps liver, lungs,
hearts, etc, boiled them down and
gave the soup TO cattle inclined to be
tubercIlar, wasting or thin, and he
was told such treatment acted very
well. Animal soup for animals in case
OF illness or of wasting is doubtless
beneficial. Soup is n great recupera-
tive food for man. 1t is easily digest
ed, nutritive and invigorating. II

Time to Cut Grain.

All grain should be cut before becom-
ing dead ripe. While the stalk is most
" green, with only a little turned yell
low, all the nourishment that the plant
will get from the root is then IN the
stalk It will be better used for filing
out the grain. This is especially true Of
the barley CROP We have seen q differ
ence of two or three pounds weight per
bushel made between barley cut early
and that which waited until dead ripe.
It is very difficult to make the six rowed
barley hold out to standard weight ex-
cept when cut while green. Late cut
barley is also much more likely to be
stained. Even the dews will stain bar
ley when left standing until fully ripe,
while barley that was cut while green
took scarcely any stain if the rainlfen
soon after cutting and before it had
dried. The only use for grain wheresit,
s'is reckoned best to leave it until it is.
fully ripe is for seed. That is because
grain cut green is usually put into NOW
or stack before it is dry and heats too
much either there or in the bin after
thrashing, and thus Injuries its vitality q
Winter grain that has to bessown in the
fall is better to be fully ripened before
it is cut, and even then it is hard to get.

Concerning NIillet.

Following is a brief summary Of the
contents Of bulletin from the Michigan
experiment. station on millet:
# Millet is used chiefly as 9 .catch
crop. for hay, since it can be sown in
spring whenever it is discovered that a
seeding Of the permanent grasses has
failed, or that q hard winter or insects
have destroyed the clover. It may be
sown when too late to plant corn.
Millet requires good soil, preferably
sand, and is especially adapted to new
land. Sow half a bushel per acre for
hay, one peck if for seed. i
Millet hay is usually cured by cooking
II up when partially dry and allowing
it to stand for several days before being
hauled to the barn, as is often done with
clover. Millet hay is strong feed and
should be used with caution, being al
ternated if practicable with other fod-
der, especially if fed to horses. 1t is
safer and more palatable If out before
the seed begins to ripen.
The best variety is German millet,
providing the soil is good and it can
have the entire season. For late sowing
or poor soil use common millet. Hun
garian grass on fertile soils in a moist
season will give large yield Of excel
lent fodder. " sal S.sI:3
