right 90 restrict the privileges OF the

Some members. however. were or the

power To- condemn the harbor fishing

stomaeh staggers in Horses.

Quite a common form of Indigestion
among horses is stomach staggers hav-
ing the following symptoms: The ears
droop forward, the eyes are dull, the
animal sweats profusely under even
light labor and seems to have little
control over the hind quarters at times.
During a portion of the time the appe-
tite is almost ravenous, at other times
there seems to be little appetite. When
the symptoms named appear the corn
should be cut out of the diet and the
grain ration materially reduced
Change the entire ration as much as
possible and keep the bowels in good
condition. Dissolve one ounce of glau-
Der salts in the drinking water twice
daily or give as drench If the animal
will not drink. If the dazed or sleepy
symptoms continue give a purge of
salts and afterwards draehm doses OF
iodide of potash three times Gaily until
the sleepy feeling passes off.

Cutting Grass Early.

Chemical analysis Is said to SHOW
that the grass cut when the seed has
ripened. or is nearly ripe, has about
the same amount of nutrition as it
has when cut earlier and thus some
allow it to stand that it may increase
in weight. But when the cow puts it
through her laboratory She does not
find the same value in the Iatecut hay.
\ part Of the seeds have ratified out
and been lost. and the remainder are
so small and so encased in a dry coat
ing or shell that not many of them
are chewed up, and thus pass through
the stomach and bowels undigested.
Then the stalks which contain the
most nurriment before tile seed has
formed have become simply woody
fibre as indigestible as bean poles. and
she gets but little nutrition from them.
We think if she could speak she
would say that two-thirds or less of
the amount of hay, cut early, and not
sun-dried too long, was better than her
usual ration of hay, ripened before
cut and overdried afterward. But if
she can not talk she has many times
put herself on record to that effect
at the mailk pail and the churn, and
it is because the owner fails to see
and understand these records that he
does not know the facts, The scale TO
weigh the milk and the Babcock test

the best food, as well as which is the
best cow.-American Cultivator

Feed forLnxinr Hena.

There is probably no food better cal
culated to promote laying in fowls than
cowpcas Peas or beans of any sort are
good but large ones must be ground.
or fowls win rarely eat them. OF cow
peas the smallest variety should be
chosen. as fowls unused to such grain
must be accustomed to it gradually.
But once get them to eat peas aud the
victory is won. They are a perfect sub
stitute for insects. meat scrap, blood
meal and other animal preparations
that are often so combined with cheap
substances that the hens are a long
time learning that when they are fed

peas. the leaves, and rs much of the
stems as they can break up small

Making Butter in Hot weather.

Making Butter in Hot Weather.
In a recent Home and Farm, Maud
Shields. Of Arkansas, gives some points
on the subject. She says: say by
all means get a separator, then buy
milk cans large enough to hold one
milking Of cream, let it cool, put tue
lid on the can and hang it in the well
1t does not matter whether it is in
the water or not, 1t win keep cool, and
will be ready to churn in twenty-four
hours. Use thermometer and churn
at about "a or 81 degrees. Take up the
butter, wash thoroughly by pressing
with the paddle. Don't drag the pad
die through it, as it spoils the grain.
Salt it, using pure salt. and mold it
as quick as possible Wrap each pound
in nice clean cloth wrung out Of
cold water.
Get you an empty butter keg from
your grocery man, bore holes near the
top just below the lid, take piece
of new rope and make a handle. put
nice, clean, new white paper in the bot
tom, then put in the butter. Put an
other piece on top just below the lid
and hang it in the well. Paper is bet
ter than cloth, as the cloth mildews.
When you are ready TO go to town,
use another keg just like the one in
the well; put clean towel in the bot
tom; put in the butter; then another
clean towel on top. Fasten on the lid,
wet some clean sacks in n tub, fold
them without wringing on the bottom
of your wagon, set the butter keg on
them, and wrap wet sacks around the
key and on top. AS you deliver the
butter take the cloths off. take them
home, and wash and scald thoroughly.
Keep two sets Of cloths; while one set
is summing and drying another can be
used. We have a separator; we sell a
part of the milk sweet, the rest we
make buttermilk. We set it and let
it clabber; then take an old-fashioned
churn dash. and churn 1T up and down
until it is free from Jumps and is
smooth. Don't put any water in it!
leave it thick; it sells much better.
When you are ready to go to town,
mix what buttermilk you have from
the cream with it.

way to become one in fact. for the I'M
fortunate man upon the mill floor looked
as though he were dying. Her heart
was now .steeled against Roger, and at
tHeir next meeting she must let him know
that he could not even call her friend.
While Carol was thus thinking upon
tie matter. and deciding as to her future
plans, Jack was examining the wounds
of the detective.
my man." said he finally, you shall
liye-aye. live for vengeance on the fiend
whose hand struck those cowardly
blows"
The face of the detective lighted up
and a fierce CLEAN came into his eyes,
for he would ask nothing better on earth
thar this.
Gently raising him, Jack carried the
poor man into the habitable part OF the
building and laid him upon the blankets
prepared for him by the widow. Then he
proceeded to dress the wounds, and the
skin he exercised in this proved him to be
a young physician of more than ordinary
fai.Ats.
He had a case Of remedies with hi'~
and before leaving the old mill on has
search for lost Nora be left the medicines
to be used fn the hands of Carols moth
er.
The detective possessed a magnificent
constitution and his wounds Were not
fatal. so that he was in fair way for
speedy recovery, being in excellent hands.
Besides that, the burning desire for re-
yenge upon the man who had dealt him
such a cowardly blow was enough Of an
incentive to keep him alive, for it brought
his will into play.
The widow was his attendant, for Carol
could not stay in the house. such was the
tumut of her thoughts in regard to Rog
or. But for the fact that Jack, for pru-
Dental reasons, had talked Of all other
subjects before his departure save the
one they were interested in. they might
have learned that which would have fall
en- like a bomb between them.
The detective was more communicative,
for his heart warmed TO the widow as the
one to whom ha owed his Efe He was
a Russian by adoption. but in reality was
n Dora Englishman, which accounted for
his speaking the language so properly.
While he entertained the little lady
with long stories Of the American adven-
turer's doings in Russia. and how, fall
ing under the ban, it was discovered that
he was a plotter against the life of the
Gear. the fact never leaked out that each
of them had in mind far different per-
sonage.
Thus the terrible mistake was allowed
to become deeper, and the characters in
our story drifted along as the stern de-
cree of fate willed.

Clipping Work Horses.

Whether or not it pays TO clip work
horses was tested at the Michigan ex-
pertinent station and reported in re-
cent bulletin. The conclusions were
not as definite as might be desired.
The station, however, believes that the
horses which were clipped did their
work with much greater comfort in
early spring than those which were not
clipped. This of course means a great
deal when animals are at work pre-
pairing the land for spring crops. The
clipped horses always look better.

1t was twilight.
The trees were moaning a requiem for
departed day. and the last ,,uge Of red
was dying out of the western sky, when
Carol suddenly sat up straight, and her
