TIE HORSES Foot. Every farmer
must have noticed that horses grown in
dry countries have small, upright feet,
and those glown on wet, low lands
have flat, wcak-heelcd ones, as il rule
Ponies grown for generations on steep
hillsides and rocky heights develop a
strong, high foot with small ground
surface, but with almost linty hardi-
ness. What connection has this with
horse management Oh the farm ? What
is the hoof, anyhow
Ioofs of all small animals arc made
of practically the same material as the
skin Of the horse, the holn Of the COW :,
and the nail Of the man. The layers
are closer packed in the hoof than in
tho skin, while the horn and nails are
made of the same material but of less
thickness than the hoof. If you soak the
horns, nails, and hoofs III strong soda
water, the scales will separate and
when placed under microscope
furnish the proof of similarity. lIoof,
whether alive or dead, will absorb
about thirty per cent. of water, thus
increasing both its weight and bulk.
Under natural conditions the horse is
provided with the required moisture,
not in the shape of oil Of which 1t will
absorb only seven per cent. but of
water. If, now, you allow IL horse to
stand in the stable for considerable
time depending on the absorption OF
its own urine for the water for tho
hoof, you must expect the feet &c
become small, possibly to crack open
and the result contracted heels, wastet
frog, and what is known as nuvicula
disease. JYuiLacc's Farmer.

GREEN FOOD.--It is absolutely es-
scntiai that fowls should have green
food of some kind during the winter
months.
Vegetable scraps, potato peelings,
apples, turnips, bects, in fact any fruit
or vegetable will suffice to supply this
want.
Among the lot no one is better than
cabbage, but it should not be fed too
freely.
A head of cabbage suspended so
that the hens will have to Jump to
rcacl il Will furnish considerable ex-
crcisc, aside from the good quality as
food.
Turnips, though highly relished, are
one of the poorest foods, being COM
posed principally Of water, with but
little solid matter.
'ccts arc good and very nutritious,
as are also carrots and apples.
Potatoes are excellent, though some-
what inclined to produce fat, and on
thls account should not be continuously
fed.

The chief supply of drink to grow
ing plants is moisture brought up from
below by capillary action, and therein
consists the necessity Of pulvcrizing
the soil thoroughly before planting,
and continuous surface cultivation
afterWard. Weeds are sometimes
counted as blessing because their
presence compcls the farmer to con-
unuc really necessary cultivation which
he might otherwise feel justified in
emitting TO the dcterimcnt of the crop.
It is filthy habit to wet the cows

young men to take up the bill and pass
it, The bill was right and ought to
pass at once.
MIR. Nichols, of Laurens, wanted the
500, 900 gwen freely and willingly,
and let the world know that it was
gi"cn without a dissenting voice.
MIR. Beamguard, as young member,
favored the bill and wanted it passed
without objection by the young men.
MIR. Robinson, of Anderson, wanted
something done that would really help.
lie thought something ought to I've
done for those who we've really de-
stitutc. The old soldiers arc fast pass
ing away and this help will not long
be asked for.
Capt. Brooks. us the author of the
bill, was deeply touched to sec such n
spirit from the young men of the
Assembly, and to thank God the State
had such noble sons of illustriuus sires.
Mr. Banks, as an old soldier, was apx-
ious for the bill to pass. lie would
vote for the S200,O0O, but did not
want the bill jcopardizcd.
MIR. Richardson, of Clal cndon, favor
ed giving tho full 100000. lie was
willing to vote for an increased levy if
necessary to pay this small sum to
those noble soldiers.
Capt. Crum, of Bambcrg, favored
the bill most heartily.
MIR. George T.. Prince was a son Of a

felt that the State owed these veterans

Old soldier. The State should honor It's
veterans, but the question now is whcth-
er we should take two steps at once.
1t would be well enough to 90 from
100000 to $l50,000 to-day and later
on 60 higher if necessary. This fund
was not necessary for deserving vete-
rams, but for those who are in need.
These men cannot be paid for their
tue merit and deserts. The record
and glory made cannot be counted in
dollars and cents. All that can now
be done is to help the needy. lie
favored an advance to $3.50 900 at this
time and if next winter more be need
ed ii can be voted. He was not fright
encd with the cry Of a tax levy. 1t
was always with him Il question of ac-
tual necessity and not TO step too
rapidly.
Mr.. Hill, of Colloton, made his first
speech to-day. The old veterans asked
him for such help. If there was any
ono thing for which he would vote il
was for tins appropriation.
MIR. Richards, OF Kershaw, favored
the most liberal appropriation for the
old soldiers. There seemed to be no
economy i'll holding down the appro-
priation for these old soldiers.
MIR. Cooper, of Iaurcns, said the
steps have been SO slowly taken that it
was time now to step quickly. There
would never be more old soldiers than
there arc to-day.
MIR. Bacot favored the amendment
and wanted the money heartily given.
