SOME OPINION ABOUT HORSES.

The National Stockman and Farmer
publishes the following opinions about
raising horses. They are given by
farmers: 1t is we'll to raise colts
enough for our own use and besides
have some moro coming. 1t takes
more potatoes or oats to buy horse
than 1T did a few years ago, and it
costs about as much to raise them now
as then, So it is very essential that
we should have colts coming on each
year, SO that we may have horse or
two to sell when they are five or six
years old, as then they are able 10 do
any kind OF work. l think it pays
better to raise colts that will weigh
from twelve to fifteen hundred.
buy and sell n good many horses dur
ing year, and find when 1 have
horses of that weight that | do not
have to look for q market for them as
for driving horses, I should not want
them to weigh less than twelve hun
dred. There are plenty of good dri-
vers of that weight. Horses should be
kept in the very best condition into
which you can get them you can keep
them cheaper than by keeping them
thin in flesh, and they will bring
more in the market. ] think that
can sell my hay and oats at better
price to feed them to a young, sound
horse until he gets in first rate condi-
tlon, and then sell him, than to sell
them to the market for what they will
bring, besides keeping the farm in
good condition. George w. Auber.
The raising of trotting stock by
farmers is a question OF the EAST.
Percherons and that class of stations
should be used with our best mares,
producing colts that will bring paying
prices when properly cared for and
trained. Five years is about the best
age for marketing colts. At that age,
if brought up properly, they have re!
turned their own part of their cost in
work performed, and should be prop
erly trained, developed, and fitted for
their life work. A horse for general
farm work should weigh between
twelve and fourteen hundred. Horses
os that weight cost less for keeping,
in proportion to those lighter OF
heavier. The feeding of farm horses
is question worthy of much consid.

COOKED FOOD.

No one disputes the fact that birds
of all species in their wild state take
their food, be it grain, animal or veg.
etable in IL raw state-ln a wild state
for that matter; but our poultry has
been bred SO far from their natural
condition, and so much more is re-.
quired of them in egg production,
weight of carcass or early maturity,
that they are called upon to live and
work at high pressure, and must have
their wants, abnormal though they be,
supplied in keeping with the require.
ments.
One way to do this is to cook part
of their food; this alone adds variety
If We use but one grain and feed part
of it raw and part of it cooked.
Fowls prefer some foods cooked rather
than raw; others raw to cooked, and
their preference should be consulted.
Care must be used in feeding cooked
food to laying or breeding stock, as it
is more fattening than raw food. In
cold weather cooked food may be fed
warm and is greatly relished. As
cooked food is more easily digested
than raw. it is best to feed raw grain
ut night, as the time till the morning
feed is longer than between the other
feelings. Corn is an excellent evening
meal, and in winter it is well to
warm it before feeding.
The simplest way to cook poultry
feed is to boil it. The graips-corn,
wheat, buckwheat, rice-may be
boiled or steamed. Ii boiled they
should be kept from the bottom of the
vessel by means of a perforated plate
of sheet iron. Mush may be made
from any of the grains ground and fed
when fresh made or cold. Iffed fresh
be sure it is not too hot. Fowls have
died from being fed food that was toe
hot.
Beets, turnips, potatoes, pumpkins,
may be boiled, mashed and fne pud
ding made by thickenIng them with
meal of any kind, bran or middlings,
or mixture OF these. The pudding
will be more civilized if the vegetables
are cleaned before being cooked. -

Where Horses Arc Scarce.

GROWING SWEET CORN FoR. STOCK.

There is popular idea that sweet
corn is richer than common field corn.
In fact. they are chemically just the
same, the carbon in the sweet corn ap-
pearing as sugar and starch, and in the
field corn as starch alone. The sweet
corn is most palatable, therefore
probably most digestible. As the
sweet corn will not yield in either
stalks or grain as much as field corn,
it would seem to be good plan to
grow field corn for the main feed and
enough sweet corn to use as change,
or when the appetite for starchy food
has been cloyed. But oats or wheat
middlings would be better for this
even than would sweet corn.-Ameri.

CURE THAT COLDi
An Old Physician Gives Some Timely
Advice.

Advice.
A cold in the head is regarded as such
simple matter that few people pay any at
tention to it. The majority of cases recover
entirely from the effects OF a cold in a few
weeks at most, and thus confirm the general
idea that cold amounts to very little. But
there are great number of apparently
trivial colds that do not disappear. The
cold fingers week after week, and the pa
ient finally discovers to his horror that he
has chronic catarrh. This state OF things
could easily have been prevented by taking
few doses OF Pe-ru-na when tho cold was con-
tracted. Po-ru-na invariably cures colds in
a few days and saves inculcu able suffering.
No one should neglect TO keep Pe-ru-na con-
stantly in the house during the winter, as its
value in catarrhal affections is certain.

and other diseases of winter will be sent free
