CORN FOR CHICKENS.
Poultry ThrIves Most Excellent1y y
Upon IL Until II Has Made Its
Full Growth.

Without doubt, the very best feed
for a flock of growing chickens is
corn, just whole corn fed to them in
unlimited quantities. If the chickens
have fhe range of the farm they will
not eat more corn than they need, and
the more they can be induced to eat
the faster they will grow. They get
enough grass, bugs, weed and grass
seeds when running about to balance
the corr ltion, and it is one of the
best feeds that can be given them.
The laying hens should not have so
much corn, so this advice should not
be taken without the hens can be kept
from eating with the growing chick
ems, for laying hen fed all the corn
she can eat will soon get too lazy to
forage much, and in the end will get
so fat that she will be inclined to take
rest from laying and become an un-
profitable servant.
All the young poultry thrives on
corn until it has made its full growth.
There is nothing better for young
poultry than sweet corn from the time
ii gets to be good roasting ears until
the winter sets in. While this is being
fed the fowls will make weight in quite
a surprising way, and they are very
fond of it. There is no need TO prepare
ii in any way. They will take care OF
it if the ears are husked and thrown
20 them. If with the sweet corn sup
Ply of sunflowers is available the fowls
'yill not only grow but their plumage
will become glossy and their combs
red and they will be pictures of health
The man who raises poultry and fails
to have supply of sweet corn and
sunfower seeds for them is missing N
opportunity to provide the best feed
that can be grown on The farm

There is no cure for heaves; it can
only be ameliorated or lessened in ex-
tent by feeding on nutritive material
in small bulk, and more frequent ra-
tions All voluminous and coarse food
should be avoided, such as timothy,
millet and clover hay, and only the
best wild hay given in small quantities,
preferably finely cut, mixed with mill
feed or steamed food. Feed every
thing wet. Food and water should
be consumed at least an hour before
an animal is used for work. 1t is but
natural that such horse will be-
come weak and faint when driven or
worked hard all day, for such a one
is only capable of performing slow
and light work, and it is cruel to use
him otherwise.-Rural World.

How to Pickle Pork.

Some one recently called for re-
cipe for picking pork. Here is one
that we find good: Salt enough to
take out the blood and let it stand
two or three days. For every 100
pounds of meat take ten pounds of
salt, four pounds of Orleans sugar,
three-quarters ounce of saltpeter, two
ounces of soda and eight gallons of
water. Boil, strain and let cool. Then
pour over the meat. Let It stay in
pickle Mt least six weeks. Keep the
meat well under pickle, but be careful
not to weight it too heavy. If the pickle
should not be enough to cover you
will have to make enough as proper
toned above. This will depend some
what upon the shape of your vessel.

LAMBS FOR MUTTON.
to obtain the Most Sntisfac-
tory Results.

Probably the fattest sent to mar
ket are those obtained from cross of
Merino and Southdown. They are
about as plump and heavy for their
size as any bred, although they are
not the largest, writes Z, p. Smith in
the American Cultivator. They are
generally desired by good butchers,
and very often they will command
fancy prices. Their Southdown line
age will be apparent in their black
faces and legs, and most butchers be-
lieve yet, and with good reason, that
the "Southdown is the finest mutton
sheep in the world"
But the Merino contributes many
noteworthy qualities. The lambs get
their fatness and tenderness from the
Merino, and this greatly helps the
lambs in the markets. Altogether the
cross produces about as satisfactory
results for the general breeder Of
lambs for mutton as any.
The lambs when two weeks old
should be taught to eat little dry
food, and this can best be given to
them with the hand. Sometimes a
tempting dish can be made for the
lambs-a mixture of clean oats, corn
and linseed in equal parts, ground up
finely and then salted and sweetened
with little sugar, The taste of the
latter tempts the lambs. The ewes
should also be fed freely and with good
nourishing food to keep up the flow OF
milk, for it is advisable for the lambs
to have plenty of the mothers milk
In a short time the lambs will take
their dry feed from box or pan, and
then feeding them will be greatly sim
plified. Ordinarily it is not necessary
to get them to take dry food, but where
it is desirable to force their growth
and make them lay on fat rapidly, this
method will be found very satisfac
tory. The lambs that grow vigorous
ly from the first are the ones that pay
in the end, and it would not prove g
bad plan to adopt this method, ever
though one has no idea of forcing thS
lambs for an early market.

CORN SHOCKING TOOL.

end make hole through which you
can put strip Of leather, whereby to
attach a piece of rope to the stick.
The rope should be about four inches
shorter than the twine. A quarter
inch rope is the best size. AT the out
err end of the rope fasten a ring just
big enough to slip over the stick cas-
lily. In use proceed as follows: Take
the handle and ring in one hand, reach
around the shock, pass the ring into
the other hand, and then slip the butt
end of the handle into the ring. Now,
shove the ring along the handle down
to the leather, turn the handle out
away from the side of the shock, and
it will stay there while you deliber-
ately put the twine around and tie.
Throw the handle back, release the
ring, and go to the next shock" Mr..
Amstutz believes that he is the orig
inator of this device, but he is willing
that others should use it without
charge.

Alarm Clock That yeIIs.

An ingenious Frenchman has invent
ed sleep-disturber which Is warranted
TO thoroughly rouse the heaviest sleep
er. His scheme utilizes clockwork and
the phonograph. Instead of the clang-
ing bell that rings, stops and rings
again, and finally becomes useless be
cause one gets accustomed to it, the
Frenchman's scheme contemplates call
ing a man in the morning with all the
force necessary to awaken him and
keep him awake by means of power
full phonograph. Some of the new
speaking clocks have been exhibited in
Paris. One is timed to shout at six
O'Clock in the morning; "Get up; it's
six o'clock. Don't 90 to sleep again"
This can be repeated until the sleeper
is awakened, gets up and turns off the
machinery. Other calls are more en-
pbatic; in fact there is no limit to what
can be said by the new clocks, for all
that is required is for one 20 talk any
desired message into the phonograph
cylinder and set the mechanism SO that
the vocal pyrotechnics may be exploded
