Give the Pig Variety.

Exclusive corn diet is universally be-
lieved to be not only uneconomic, but
unhealthful to the greatest extent, and
frequently produces the death of the
hog before maturity. The hog is like
the human being, in respect to liking a
change of diet. That which is appe-
tizing is relished by the hog as well as
by the human, and it conduces not
only to the health, but, in the case of
the hog, to profit as well. An occa-
sional feed of root crops gives q
change in diet, and ministers to the
health of the porker to very
great extent. In this line turnips,
potatoes, squash, cabbage, mangels
and any and all other vegetables may
and should invariably be employed to
produce pork. 1t is certainly true that
If proper attention were rgiven to the
matter of providing good pasture and
an abundant supply of root crops in
their season, better pork-very much
better could be produced, and at far
less cost than by the prevailing meth
DDS. Certainly the health of the ami
NAL should be looked after, and If we
do not regard the welfare of the beast,
just as surely will he violate the good
health principles of the human. Let
the principles of humanity be adopted
towards the hog and it will result in
the supply of healthful food for man.

LICE ON LIVE STOCK.
Watch the Animals, and II Affected Apply
the Remedy.

WHICH tnt hhtsttu Apply
the Remedy.
In fall, winter and spring, cattle, If
not properly cared for and fed well, are
apt to get lice. However, this parasite
is not nearly as common as in former
years, and it is hoped that all breeders
take better care of their cattle than to
allow them to become infested with
them. But it is always well enough to
be on guard against this trouble, and
an ounce of prevention is worth many
pounds of cure. Cattle lice breed rap
idly. A single infested animal, II neg
lected, will before spring become liter
ally alive, and by close contact in the
stable and yard is almost certain to
spread the parasites to the whole herd.
These parasites are, therefore, more apt
to give trouble during the winter.
Lice irritate the skin; when animals
are found rubbing they should be ex-
amined at once. IL lice are found, sep
crate the infested animals. Search
about the neck and shoulders, at the
base of the horns, around the eyes and
nostrils and along the back. Separate
the hair and expose the skin. II lice
are present they can generally be de-
tected. A fine-toothed comb could be
used in searching. Infested animals
are generally restless. When badly in
tested they lose flesh and the coat Is
staring. Bare places from rubbing ap-
pear on the neck and shoulders. 1t
would be well to examine animals when
they are are put into winter quarters
and not wait for pronounced cases be-
fore adopting remedial measures.
The auth orized remedies for lice nat
urally divide themselves into four
classes, viz, powders, unctions, liquids
and fumes. The powders usually en-
ployed are pyrethrum, ashes or road
dust. The unctions, mercurial ONT
ment and mixture of kerosene and
lard. The liquids are decoctions Of to-
bacco, stavesacre or the seeds of the
common larkspur, solution Of carbolic
acid soap or kerosene emulsion. The
fumes are burning tobacco, sulphur or
pyrethrum. Pyrethrum or Persian in
sect powder should be blown into the
hair by means of small pair of hand
bellows until it is well filed. Ashes
could be applied in the same way OF
sifted over the animal and rubbed in
with the hand.
Dry, fine road dust can be used, and
like ashes, properly acts by stopping
the spiracles of the parasite. This
seems to be natures remedy, as ami
mails will throw dirt over themselves
when they have access to it, The unc
tions should be applied about the eyes
nostrils, base Of horns, upon the necl,
and shoulders and along the back. The
decoctions are not practical remedies
during the winter, unless the animal,
are kept in a warm room during treat
ment. The liquid remedies are prob
ably the best, and should be resortet
to when possible, especially in bat
cases. The animals should be wet with
the solution. Care should be taker
that the solution Is not too strong, ant
keep 1t out of the animals eyes. Rura

Importance of Water.

The Importance Of water to the grow

we apprehend and appreciate how large
a part of its structure is composed of wa
ter, and that even this large percent
age Of its composition is but fraction
of the total amount used in its devel-
opment. The quantity Of water enter
ing into the structure of plants varies
from so to as high as 90 per cent. of
their total weight. During the en-
tire period of growth there is

Keep the Pigs Growing.

To get the best results with pigs, they
must be kept growing from the start.
Their food should be varied and al
ways of the best. Never feed damaged

thing was good enough for hogs has
long since been exploded. Farmers
who still believe it. are those who are

does not pay. How could 1t when
