COrnstalks In the Spring.

"As dry as cornstalk in spring" is a
common proverb among farmers for
anything that is very dry and worth
less. 1t is very apparent at this time
of year that the stalks should be fed
out very early in order to get as much
value from them as possible. If they
are cut it will pay to moisten each feed,
and this can be done with sweetened
water, now that sugar is so cheap as it
is. The juices of the cornstalk are
sweet, and it is in this fact that much
of the value of cornstalks for feeding
consists. Wherever beet sugar is made
some of the refuse or discolored mo.
lasses may be used in place of the sugar.
Some time this country will probably
be able to produce all the sugar it needs,
and so cheaply that it can be freely
used as an appetizer to encourage farm
stock to eat food that would not other
wise be palatable.s- American Guilt

There are thousands Of people suffering

Sbeggared themselves IN buying medicines
I from which they have obtained no help.
There are thousands Of others who FIRST or

found perfect healing. One of these
others, Mrs. A. r. Taylor, Of Englevalc,

overdrtvine Draught Horses,

The draft horse never has so hard
and sound a hoof as the horse used from
colthood to rapid driving on the road.
He not only needs to be kept shod when
driven, but the greatest care should be
taken that he never be oyerdriven. It
is not in their lungs, but in their feet,
that draft horses most often go
wrong when used freely on the road.
Their weight units them for rapid driv-
ing, as even if their feet were sound
the extra weight with which each foot
would come upon the ground means,
a jar not only to the foot but to the en-.
tire system. But in most cases it is the
feet that alsually give out after hard
driving oil the road merican Guilt.

of pole, long enough to reach all parts
of the tree, but light enough not to
prove cumbersome to carry and handle.
A simple push with the hands will cut
off al small branches, but as for those

hung over the shoulder will sever them

so that the horse cannot feed out of the
grain till. Few realize how little good
grain does some horses because of in
sufficient mastication. 1t is not merely
the loss of the grain from this cause
that is to be deprecated, but the irritat-
ing and exhausting effect upon the di-
gestive organs as well. Many seek to
avoid this trouble by feeding ground
grains, wet up with cold waterman en-
tirely wrong practice. If the grain is to
be ground, feed it dry, just as one
would the whole grain. Then it will be
eaten more slowly-will have the saliva
mixed with it, and so made more easily
digestible, and will be much less likely
to sour in the stomach and bloat the
animal.-N. Y. Tribune.
