VARIETY IN HORSE FEED.

Oats and hay are the recognized feed
for horses, and, undoubtedly, If one is
confined to but two kinds of feed these
are better than any others. 1t should
be remembered. however, that horses
are quite as partial to variety as cows.
and if given more or less change in
their foods will do better work and
without any more expense. An occa-
sional feed of roots is beneficial, as is
also a weekly feed of bran as mash.
In feeding a grain ration good results
come from scattering it over cut hay
after wetting the fodder. This is bet
ter than to feed the hay uncut and the
grain separately, and especially If
clover hay which is dusty, is used. 1t
is a good plan to cut up about one-half
Of the hay ration to feed with the
grain in the manner suggested, leav-
ing the balance uncut, to be fed after
ward, and give the animal something
to keep it busy. An occasional feed of
corn, either on the cob or shelled also
adds to the variety. but should not
take the place Of oats, especially dur
ing the spring and summer, in the
regular tion.-Indianapolis News.

! CAN CURE you AT HOME. {
Deterioration in Cities.

great many men who have come
to cities, after living in the country
for years, wonder at their general de-
terioration, physically and mentally.
They are not conscious of any lack of
effort to live straight, clean lives, but
the unnatural conditions of cities have
been slowly undermining their char
acter, physical stamina and mental
fiber, and there is a general letting
down OF standards. Some incident
perhaps meeting a fresh, unspoiled
friend from the old home-makes
them realize that something has gone
out OF their lives, something prac-
tically helpful and inspiring. limo
cence has been traded for knowing
worldliness. frankness for deceptive
policy, kindness for cringing subser-
vience, and charity and helpfulness
for brutal indifference.-Success.
