TO MAKE HENS LAY.

a great deal of trouble is found to
get good results in the egg industry.
If one would have hens lay we'll in
cold weather, a warm breakfast should
be given them in the morning as soon
as the fowls come from the roost.
Mix boiled vegetables with corn meal.
oat meal, bran or shorts. Give as
much variety as possible; season all
soft food with salt and pepper. At
noon scatter a few handfuls Of buck
wheaton wheat-in the place where
they exercise. At night give them
plenty Of meat or scraps-somethinS to
take the place of the bugs they get in
the summer. Liver is a good thing to
give them, cut into fine pieces. Fowls
need drink in cold weather, and, when
water or milk cannot be kept by them,
clean water should be supplied twice
day. Raw or crushed bones three
times a day will go far in inducing
them to lay we'll. Supply them with
gravel or crushed oyster shell. If
careful attention in this way is given
to your fowls, the egg basket will
be kept we'll filled during winter
months.-Louise Wood, in The Epito-
mist.

ROOT CROPS CO3 COWS.

While there is no question about the
value Of root crops for cows it must
not be considered that they may con-
stitute any considerable portion of the
ration. That is, because rot crops are
fed several times weekly there ought
not to be any material cutting down
of the grain or roughage ration. The
root crop will assist the milk flow, but
their main value is for regulating the
bowels and furnishing that variety in
the ration which is needed to keep up
the appetite.
In feeding carrots, mangles and like
roots it is an excellent plan to feed
them by themselves one time and then
when they are given again cut them
into pieces of proper size, not so small
that the animal is likely to choke, and
sprinkle them with little bran in
which a trifle of oil meal has been
mixed. This adds spice, as it were, to
the ration which the COWS will ap-
iate.-Indianapolis News.

FARM NOTES.

Do not cross the differeE. breeds hap
hazard.
Dirty pals are a common cause Of
sick calves.
Keeping an account of the milk
yield and its test is the only way that
a cows value can be positively known.
English farmers give fat bacon or
butter fat to cattle badly constipated
or with impaction. One veterinary
says fat bacon boiled with onions gives
prompt relief and lard, butter or tallow
give greater relief than vegetable oils,
but he cannot tell why it is so.
When an animal has the scours it
indicates indigestion in some form. 1t
is not desirable to attempt to give
medicine unless you know the cause
of the difficulty, and the safest remedy
is to diet the animal. A warm mash
of bran, twice day, with no other
food, will sometimes affect q cure.
