served. and we are now prepared to repeat

Treatment of Colds in Stock.

During cold weather, and especially
in early winter, barn-fed stock is more
or less liable to mild attacks Of various
diseases, which, II properly treated in
the early stages, are not apt to make
much trouble. Warm, properly ventl-
lated buildings, proper food and water
are the best safeguards against dis
ease. Cows are liable to colds which
cause a shrinkage in the flow Of milk
and discharge Of water from the eyes
and mucus from the nostrils. II the
animal is warmly stabbed she will soon
recover, but the bowels must be kept
open by rations Of root crops or If nee
essary by the use Of condition powders.
Bad colds frequently cause the ami
mails to become stlff in the shoulders,
eyes red, tongue swollen and breath
offensive. For this trouble give a dose
Of EPSON salts, about pound, to move
the bowels freely. After a passage give
two drains Of iodide Of potassium daily
for ten days. This will usually effect a
cure in two weeks at most, but II the
animal is not nearly we'll at the end of
that period repeat the doses of potas-
SUM for about ten days longer,
The Advocate and news., 1898-01-05
Putting Up Ice.

Ice has become almose necessary to
comfort during the warm months, and
yet very few farmers have O supply Of
their own to draw upon for the many
purposes for which 1t is used. Ice is
one Of the cheapest luxuries that can be
supplied on the farm, and any one with
any mechanical ability at all can build
an ice house that will answer all prac-
tical purposes.
The sides and roof may be OF cheap
lumber, though all parts of the building
should be well braced to prevent the
weight Of the ice from forcing 1t out OF
shape.
A building twelve feet square and ten
feet to the caves will hold enough Ice
for any family without danger Of the
supply becoming exhausted. The roof
may be Of boards, and the gable ends
should be left partly open, for the pres
ervation of the ice depends in a great
measure on allowing the air to circulate
above it freely. Perfect drainage below
and good ventilation above the ice are
absolutely necessary to insure It's keep
ing.
When ready to put the ice In put a
foot Of sawdust on the floor and build
up the ice In regular block, leaving two
feet between the pile of ice and the sides
Of the building,
After the ice ls In, fill between 1t and
the sides with sawdust, and put two
feet OF the sawdust over the top of 1t,
and 1t will keep perfectly.
If saWdust Is not available, chaR, or
even fine straw or hay, may be substi
tuted with good results II care is taken
to pack it well about the ice.
When the time comes to use the ice,
take out what is to be used for the day,
and after this is done replace the COW
ering of sawdust or chaff. To keep the
packing from falling out when the door
Is opened, pieces of board little longer
than the door is wide should be placed
across the inside Of the door frame and
removed as the ice Is owered.-Farmer's
Voice.

Handling Manure in Winter.

In all sections where there are occa-
sional warm days during the winter,
stable manure will be most valuable
when applied to the soil shortly after II
Is made. The occasional warm days
will open the soil so that the best parts
of the manure will work down, to be
quickly utilized by the coming crop.
A top dressing Of stable manure on
exposed fields Of winter grain will be
found valuable, and especially so the
coarser manure, which will serve as
protection for the tender roots and
blades during the alternating periods
Of freezing and thawing. This manner
Of using manure is much more economi-
cal than allowing large quantities to
accumulate during the winter, for even
though 1t is under cover it will lose more
or less Of its most valuable properties.

The Sweet Potato Vine.

If one is short of suitable vines for the
sunny window garden, the sweet potato
will produce a vine as handsome as an
ivy and of much more rapid growth.
Take a quart fruit jar of glass and bend
two wires so they will cross each other,
the ends resting on the inside rim of the
jar; the wires should be bent so they
will hold the potato and allow about
one-half Of its length to be out of the
jar. Fill the jar or can with water,
select potato which Is of good size
and perfectly sound, set it in the can,
resting on the wire, and then keep in a
dark room or closet until the roots
reach the bottom of the can, then bring
into the light and sun and the top will
grow rapidly and may be trained on
strings or on trellis.
The Advocate and news., 1898-01-05
Pure Food for Poultry.

There is a strong tendency on the part
of many who raise poultry for eggs to
feed anything the hens will eat if it can
be obtained at low price; scraps from
tanneries, slaughter houses and the like.
Remember that food of this kind will
faint the eggs and your customer is
gone II the consumer once suspects
where the tainted eggs come from. Hens
will often eat this tainted food because
Of their craving for meat, but the want
can be readily and inexpensively sat
isfied with meat scraps from the table,
or If these are not sufficient, fresh scraps
may be bought Of butchers for small
sum. This idea Of pure food applies to
all food given stock Of any kind, and
1t may be set down that you are losing
dollars for every cent you save by feed
ing anything that is badly tainted.
The Advocate and news., 1898-01-05
Glover for Poultry,

Some sort of green food is absolutely
necessary for confined fowls, and clover
seems to be more to their taste than any
other vegetation. During the summer
chopped clover should be kept in the
yard at all times and in the winter a
commercial food, known as clover meal,
should be fed. Glover either green or
in meal form is a sort of balancing
ration between grain and meat and will
take the place of any other vegetable
food. 1t is so rich in lime, much more
so than either wheat or barley, and pro-
vides a necessity not only for egg pro-

The Velvet Bean,

A rival Of the COW pea as a cattle
food and as leguminous fertilizer Is
the velvet bean, which, though by no
means new, is now first being grown
to any considerable extent. In the South
it can be cut to advantage from June to
October and Is quickly cured. Cattle
eat 1t readily and as it is digestible and

cow pea for food. In the South the
growth is very rank and would there
fore not seem so good for plowing under
