NOTES AND HINTS.

Overlooking is a fruitful source Of
balky horses.
The cows should be bred to form as
near the same time as possible.
The farm should be made to produce
all that it is capable of producing.
1t is waste OF feed to give an ami.
NAL more than II can properly digest.
1t is strength-producing food that
brood mares need and not fat produc-
ing.
Stock raising and grain growing nat.
urally go together on well regulated
farm.
Rushing for 4 while and then resting
is not the way to get along rapidly
with the work.
AS a general rule. ii will not be n
source Of much profit for the average
farmer to buy feed.
There are no animals on the farm
more particular about the quality of
their feed than sheep.
Bedding under the stock should nj.
ways be sufficiently liberal to absorb
all OF the liquid voidings.
All quick maturing crops require an
abundant supply of plant food in the
most available form.
The feeding of grain or Of a highly
nitrogenous food is always dangerous
when carried TO excess.
No one can do real good work with
out good tools. and tools are never
good unless in a first-class condition.
Ducks should be allowed as much lib
erty as possible. They do not thrive
under confinement as we'll as chickens
When they are kept in the poultry
yard with hens they become quarrel
some and do more damage than they
are worth.
