Raising Cattle ON Farms.

It is not true that the cattle bust
ness to be profitable must be con-
Quoted on the broad ranges of the
western plains,.says Texas Farm and
Ranch. That is one profitable system
of cattle raising, but there is another
which yields fully as great profits for
the capital invested. Raising cattle
on the farm has in all countries and
all ages been found profitable, and
more SO now than ever. By raising
cattle on the farm the farmer has a
good market for all the feed he can
raise, saves labor and expense of
transportation and avoids much loss
from waste and hocus-pocus of COM
merce. And one of the main features
of stock farming is that it can be
made to continually improve the fer
tility and value of the farm.

HORSES IN sPRINGTIME.
Some Reasons Why They Should Be
Cared For, Instead of Neglected,
at This Period

The weather 1T this season of the
year is apt to be very changeable,
and the ground muddy. With March
and April usually come good many
disagreeable days, which, with the
frost leaving the ground and the
sudden change, render it unhealthy
for both man and beast, and 1 be-
lieve that the horse comes in for a
larger share of neglect, or suffers
more from Encouragement, than any
other animal, at this time.
The farm horse does not usually
shed his winter coat until along in
March or first part of April, and at
this season, while his HAIR is long and
thick, lively exercise causes him to
sweat freely, and as the days get
warm he is liable to be left without
being covered while the air is really
cold, and the necessity for blanket
ing while standing after exercise is
fully as great as in the middle of the
winter. 1t is in the warm, spring
like days when dampness arises from
the approach of the glowing sun,
while snow is yet on the ground or in
the air, that man and beast take
cold" rather than in the seven. cold
days of January.
When the horse stands exposed to
the cold winds the neck, chest and
back should be covered; but how
common it is to see horses, wet with
sweat, hitched to the fence, and If
covered at all, with an apology for a
blanket, short at both ends, while
the chances are that the driver is
comfortably seated indoors; and then
perhaps after standing in this way
for two or three hours, he is driven
home through the mud and placed in
the stable without further attention.
Horses that are hitched out of
doors should be placed in sheltered
positions, well blanketed and left to
remain there no longer than neces-
sary, and, after drive through the
mud, with handful of straw or piece
of sacking brush the mud from the
legs and fetlocks, cover with light
blanket and shut all doors SO as to
keep out the draught.-Ohio Farmer.

inch piece on under side to serve as a
brace. Bolt this crosspiece solid at
one end, and at the other end make
several bolt holes an inch or so apart,
so that the bolt may be put in which
ever hole will hold the handles the
right distance apart to conform to
size of barrel.
Fig. 2 will help to make the construc-
ton plain. 1t will be seen that as the
handles are moved farther apart on
the adjustable crosspiece, the ends
which grip the barrel will be brought
closer together. 1t should be set so as
to grip barrel far enough up to hold it
secure, and yet not slip entirely over
barrel at it's largest part. When
transporting barrel that is full of
anything heavy, the cart must be used
with little care to keep from crush
ing in the sides of barrel, and for this
reason try to have the iron pieces fit
around the barrel as uniformly as pos
sible.-Ohio Farmer.

USING DAMAGED FEEDS.
Grain Injured i'm Any Manner What
ever Should Be Fed Very Spar
inEIy to Farm Stock

Bleached hay or straw has not the
feeding value of hay or straw hav-
ing it's normal color and strength.
Bleaching, caused by exposure to
weather, robs hay of it's sweetness
and succulence, leaving sort of
dead roughness possessing compare
lively little feeding value. This loss

grains, extracting the soluble COM
pounds contained in them and render
ing them almost devoid of nutrition.
Just now many questions are being
asked as to the advisability of feed
ing grains injured in the manner in
dicated. The answer to those ques-
tions must be general rather than
specific, as so much depends upon the
degree and also upon the nature of
the injury that no answer can be
given that will meet the needs of
every case. It may be said with
safety, however, that wheat or other
grain that is badly musted or mold

ess that will tend to remove mold
from it will lessen the injury, but no
after treatment can make such grain
a first-class food again. Second, if
the grain is simply badly wrinkled
with the wet and discolored, it's feed
ing value for stock would not seem
to be lessened. Third, if the wheat is
small and the grains so diminutive
and uneven in size in addition to the
discoloration, it still makes excellent
food for live stock. 1t has large
amount of bran relatively, and this
makes it a safe food even when fed
alone. Damaged wheat may be fed
to sheep without being ground. For
cattle and swine it ought to be
ground. If such wheat has in it oily
seeds of weeds, it's feeding value is
probably improved rather than in
jured. The oil in the seeds is slightly
laxative. But it would be easily pos
sible to have too much of this ele-
ment for the best results.-Farmers

INDIAN MISSIONARIES STORY
Years of TOiIsOme Ministry Among
the ChOctaws.

Little York, Ind, April 2 Especially
Twenty-Five years ago, the Rev. c.
H. Thompson left Indiana. For a
time he preached in Arkansas, after
wards entering on the regular mis-
sionary work among the Choctaw In
dams.
For five years, he lived and labored
among the full bloods of the western
prairies, until on April 5th, 1885, hav-
ing lost his wife, he left the circuit
on which he had preached SO long,
and commenced travelling missionary
work among the Indians of the vari-
Gus Tribes scattered in the West.
This irregular work involved a
great deal of travel over the prairies.
The drinking of so much all<ali wa
ter, brought on Kidney Troubles
which terminated in Diabetes.
Finally, while laboring among the
Creek Indians at Wagner, Indian
Territory. this noble man was strick-
en- down completely. A Chicago Spe-
cialist was summoned, and after a
careful examination, declared thar
there was not the slightest chance
OF his recovery. Besides the pre-
scriptions of the doctors, he tried
many other medicines, but all to no
avail. He says:
Il had concluded that my days
were drawing to close, when ]
picked up an Almanac telling of the
cures of Diabetes by the use of
Dodd's Kidney Pills. I sent for two
boxes. I gained strength and spirits
