Scrub Bulls.

Scrub bulls are dear at any price. The
bull is more than half the herd in the
long run. The heard either breeds up or
breeds down, and the DU,i is responsible
for this, whichever way it goes. 1t is an
old saying that if farmer has only
three COWS one of them snOuld be bull.
We would like to add to that by saying
that the bull should always be the very
best that can be had under the circum-
stances OF course, farmers cannot or
dinarily pay $500 or $1,000 for bull, ard
they ought not to. We do not advise
farmers to pay these fancy prices, but
we do advise them to improve their
stock by getting the best bull they can
afford under the circumstances, because
we believe that it will pay them in the
long run Bulls are now so plentiful that
a good, fair bull can be had for ABOUT
500 and sometimes for much less, and a
farmer with a dozen cows would soon
get that back in the improved condition
Of his heard and the better price he
would receive for the young stock he
would have to sell.

Pointers for Sheen Raisers,

The sheep is a dainty animal and will
thrive only in clean, bright quarters.
There must be absolutely no damp
ness about the quarters if the sheep
must thrive.
Often, if no dead air space is provided
the moisture from the breath will ac-
cumulate in the form of frost on sides
and ceiling to melt and drip on warm
days, causing much dampness..~>
Foot rot in sheep is often caused by
running on wet pasture, standing in irri-
tating manure, and accumulation of
filth between the claws The feet should
be thoroughly cleansed, all diseased horn
removed, then washed with carbolated
water three to six per cent After this
touch all ulcerating patches with full
strength carbolic acid Badly affected
feet should be bandaged or otherwise
kept clean. If not too badly involved
pine tar dressing may be sufficient. The
worst cases require repeated acid appli-
cation, and as Improvement results use

Cars of Grain,

Grain is generally shipped to market
by the car load. We often hear it re-
marked that from a certain station so
many car loads of wheat were shipped
within given time, or so many car
loads of oats, or flax, or other grain.
Farmers generally estimate or measure
their grain by bushels, and to them car
load is rather vague or uncertain
amount. But to grain dealers, commits
sion men, warehousemen and transpor-
tation companies a car load means
definite number of bushels, and when
they speak of a certain number of car
loads of any kind of grain they know
how many bushels the car load repre-
sents. In shipping and selling on the
market a car load of wheat means 600
bushels, car load of oats means 1000
bushels, car load of corn means 600
bushels, car load of barley means 800
bushels, a car load of rye means 600
bushels, and a car load of fax means 500
bushels. BY keeping these figures in
mind it is an easy matter to reduce car
loads to bushels and to tell how many
car loads a certain number Of bushels
will make in any of these kinds of grain.

stock to cow up rapidly without extra
allowance of heating food Covering up
cracks and seeing that windows and
doors shut snugly will help some, but
we remember when boy and the
cows were kept in barn with unsnir-
gled sides and ends, of having to tighten
the walls back of stock with old boards
and slabs nailed on the inside of the
posts and stuffing the space between
this lining and the outer boards with
bog hay, SO that no wind could come
through Taking out the old board slide
window where the manure was thrown
out into the yard and putting in larger
half window from an old building so
that We had light enough to take care OF
the cows without leaving door or window
open was another improvement, and all
was done at small expense and but little
labor, which were important considera-
tions in those days to poor farmers. try
ing to do the best they could with what
they had.-Boston Cultivator.
