Why Moses Prohibited Pork.

An institute worker says: With re,
gard to the prohibition against the use
of pork by Moses, there are differences
of opinion. One writer supposes the
law prohibited swine because of their
filthiness and observes that it is well
known with what care and precision
the law forbids all filthiness and dirt
even in the fields and camp, as well
as in the cities. Another states that
the Jews abstained from it in conse.
quence of leprosy, from which they
had severely suffered, and to which
the hog, in those climates, is very sub,
ject; that throughout Palestine leprosy
is an epidemic disease, and, the Israel,
ties being overrun with it at the period
OF their quitting Egypt, Moses found
1t necessary to enact variety of laws
respecting it, and prohibiting the use
of swine as an article of food was one
of these

Preserving a Corn Crop.

The Vermont station tested -four ways
of preserving q corn crop for dairy feed;
namely, /, putting in silo, ears and all,
2, cribbing the ears and putting fod~
der in silo, feeding the two together
after grinding the ears; 5, curing in
shocks, then running through cutter,
ears and all, at time of feeding; 4, cur
ing in field, and husking and grinding
ears, and running fodder through Gpt-
ter at time of feeding. OF the ~
methods, putting into the silo, ears "
all, cut in quarter inch lenR tbs, gave th-
best results. This silage cost much
less, handled much better, went farther
and produced mere milk than either OF
the other three feedR

have; an ideal place to put dozen hens
and a rooster, to get some eggs that will
hatch. No better place to set hens,
from one to six in a house, accord
ing to the care they have. Do you let
biddy take care of her chicks when they
are Matched? All right, don't carry
them off somewhere; throw out the
nests, ETC., and put biddy and the chicks
on the ground; they are safe, and you
don't need to spend much time over that
problem. With some poultry netting
(small mesh) you can fix little yard
for the chicks outside, when it is time;
this will be a good thing till they are big
enough to have free range, also in wet
weather. A brooder and so chicks will
just fit one of these houses, too.
When fall comes, if you have mar
keted the male birds, there will be pull
let's enough left to stock the house for
the winter all wonted to their quar-
tiers, point often overlooked by those
who want early eggs and many of them.
If you have sitters to break up, put
them in one of these houses, put in a
lively rooster (no nests) and the thing
is soon done. No time is spent in MAX
ing place to break them up, and their
health doesn't suffer during the proc
ess. If you wish eggs, you will get
about as many from one of these
houses, as from twice as big with twice
as many hens in it! Did you ever hear
man say, in substance: Last year
] had 20 hens and they laid tiptop; this
winter L have so hens and they don't
lay worth cent?" Don't put too many
hens together.
This house will stand the weather
all right for years. You can stand up
straight in it. 1t is quickly cleaned.
1t is easy to catch hen init. A man
with brains enough to make poultry
pay can build it himself, and can
change the size or shape little. 1t
can be built cheaper, if desired. The
man from whom 1 got the idea had
simply two planks, eight inches wide,
for sides at the bottom, and the roof
was boarded up and down-no rafters
or cross pieces, except one at the top.
He had no window, summer or winter,
Just door covered with netting, not
tight; but hens stay in there all win
ter, and lay, too. He had over 100 of
these houses set in his orchard He
sold about 1000 barrels OF apples the
year before l visited him. | do not
think that anyone gains anything in
the end by building too cheap to begin
with; shingles and clapboards outlast
paper.-Rural New Yorker. K

GREEN FORAGE CROPS
Planting Them Is Good Way of Clear
Ing Laad of Weeds.

ing Lana OF WeedS.
There are crops that can be grown to
take the place of pasture grass and Mt
the same time serve to clear the ground
of weeds. 1t is not to be expected, how
ever, where the land is compelled to
produce two or more crops, that it can
do SO unaided, for that would be impos-
sible, unless the soil was very rich; yet
there is a way of growing q large
amount of green food and feeding it at
the barn while the pasture is being re-
newed. 1t is important to keep stock
off the pasture land when the grass be
gins TO fail; yet the cows must be pro-
vided for, and with green food, as they
will not thrive during the summer IL
compelled to subsist on hay, fodder and
grain entirely. Green and succulent
foods are essential to the thrift of the
animals, promoting digestion, prevent
ing bowel diseases and increasing the
flow Of milk as well as protecting
against the heat of summer.
For cows the broadcasting of oats ard
peas, to be moved as wanted, and fed to
the chws in the barnyard, will provide
grass, such food being assisted by hay
and grain. 1t will permit of resting the
pasture land. Later in the season Hun
garian grass may be sown on the same
land. AS it is quick-growing crop,
providing cutting every four or five
weeks and of a sufficient growth for
hay, it will more readily provide green
food that is wanted daily, and it will
continue to produce green food until
it goes to seed or is overtaken by frost.
This mode of feeding is styled "soiling"
and applies to the practiceNof growing
green food and carrying. it to the stock
instead of turning the stock on the
green food. 1t also gives larger
amount of food, as a new crop comes
up on the space just cut, thus keeping
up continued supply, while the ma.
nure saved in the barnyard is an add.
tional item. Labor, however, must not
be overlooked, as more attention to
stock will be necessary, but the land
will provide for twice as many cattle
as the same area in pasture.
Where crops are cut frequently the
weeds are also moved down at the same
time, being thus destroyed, and, asi6a
from this, any thickly sown crop that
makes rapid growth crowds the weeds
out. If a piece Of land can be cleared
of weeds in this manner it will pay for
the labor of soiling the stock.-Phila-
delphia Record.

be made. These interests can we'll be
grouped, because they require for their
housing empty floor space, without
room above. In the illustration the
further end of the building, with large
doors, is devoted to the storage of tools
and machines, the doors being large
enough so that the latter can be driven
in, the horses unhitched and led out of
large doors on the opposite side of the
building. The next two compartments
are for fowls and swine, being placed
in the center of the building for in
creased warmth in winter. In the near
er end is a workshop, fitted with bench
and other appliances for repairing tools
and doing any bit of woodwork that
may be needed about the farm or farm
house. The small space under the roof
can be used for the storage of lumber
and tools that can be thus piled away,
in which case there should be a small
gable window in each end of the build
ing. Such building could well be
made wing to a barn, if desired. u
this is done, communication can be had
between the barn and the wing. Then
the fowls and the hogs should have
their quarters next to the barn. Then
would come the toolshed, and at the
outer end the workshop, so that light
can be had from windows in the end
wall.-N. Y. Tribune.

Bulletin 81, of Minnesota station, gives
results of some experiments in feeding
lambs and wethers. Corn fed with hay
produced 20 cents per lamb more profit
than barley fed with hay. BY weight,
corn proved to be worth 70 cents per
ton more than barley, S2.65 more than
wheat screenings, and $3.45 more than
wild buckwheat. The fact that screen
ings contain weed seeds that are apt to
be scattered in the manure, renders
them very Objectionable, Making one
tenth the ration linseed or cottonseed
meal greatly increased profits. Cracked
corn and cottonsced meal was the most
profitable grain ration. The lambs
gave a profit Of s1.O5 each; the wethers
40 cents eacb.

Cost of Eggs and Meat.

The nutritive value of eggs and the
cheapness of their production are
scarcely realized by the public. 1t may
seem rather improbable to state that
when ,ceot is 25 cents pound, the
food value of eggs is about 3Th cents q
dozen, yet this seems to be the fact.
hen may be calculated to consume ono
bushel of corn yearly, and to lay ~ OF
~ pounds of eggs. This is equivalent
to saying that lilo pounds of corn
will produce, when fed to this hen,
pound of eggs. a pound of pork, on thu
contrary, requires about 5 13 pounds oi
corn for it's production. Judging from
these facts, eggs must be economical
and especially fitted for the laborina
man in replacing meat.-Scientifi,
