a strike, closing up certain mills, over
a question involving an outlay of So

to employ two boys, known as board

they do. The borders of one mill
asked for a change from a piece to

of each. The employers refused to
grant it, and so all the employees went
out on a strike. The report adds that

the manufacturers have long been
wanting an opportunity to make some
repairs in their mills, conditions which
go far to explain how so trifling a
matter should be allowed to occasion

Keen a Few Sheep.

The farmer who does not keep at
least small flock of sheep is losing
money every year, says Up-to-Date
Farming. Much of the feed consumed
by flock of sheep would be other
wise Il total waste.
A few sheep should be found on
every farm. Good, comfortable sheds
that are large and roomy are a neces-
sity where sheep are to be wintered.
These need not be expensive, but
Should be we'll ventilated, free from
drafts and situated on dry ground.
A large, open yard, apart from that
occupied by other animals, should be
provided for exercise. Too much con-
hnement in overwarm or lily venti-
lated stables is fatal to success with
sheep. On the other hand, comforta-
BILE quarters, regular and liberal feed
ing, plenty of pure water and suf-
fiency of salt will go far toward in

Diseased HOOf.

Greasing is necessary for horses
ness, and is as good for the sole and
frog as for the wall. 1t is applicable,
also, to feet which have to stand on
dry bedding. Feet which on account
of diseased conditions require to be
frequently soaked or poulticed ought
also to be creased. Bedding of peat
moss and fine sawdust, equal parts, is
most excellent. All these measures
may be advantageous If the feet are
properly shod.
Good shoeing is the essential pro-
phylaxy of hoof bound. We must
avoid all improper practices likely to
promote dessication and contraction
of the foot, such as abuse of the rasp,
too long application of the heated
shoe when fitting it to the foot, the
lowering of the heels, the excessive
pairing OF the frog or of the bars, the
bad fitting of the shoes, useless calks,
too many nails in the quarter or near
the heels-all these errors must be
carefully avoided. The foot, more
over, must not be allowed to grow
too long. The shoeing should be re-
newed monthly, even If the shoe is
not worn, and lastly, the horse must
not be allowed too long periods of
inactivity.
1t has been proposed to abolish the
custom of shoeing, but in the present
conditions and modes of using the
horse this is impossible. The feet
deprived of their accustomed protec-
tion would soon become painful, and
only by keeping the animal in the
country could the feet be suffered to
remain unshod.
Several modesof shoeing have been
invented to prevent contractions in
feet which are predisposed to them.
Some are undoubtedly beneficial, but
they must be used as are ordinary
shoeing and not reserved until the
access of the disease. Good shoeing
is often all that is required. 1t is
absolutely necessary to study the pose
of the limb and in preparing the foot
to have it absolutely level, also the
shoe, and by all means try and pre-
serve the natural elasticity of the
foot, not let it get too dry, or become
too soft, but endeavor to preserve a
proper equilibrium.-Chas. r. Wood,

To the writer the proportion OF
cornmeal seems too great in the
Lindsay formula, especially for
greedy fowl. This has been his ex-
perience, the hens getting fat and
lazy. The Maine man comes nearer
to his idea of we'll balanced ration,
although it is rated as containing
one per cent. more fat than the
former. This is easily overcome by
the greater bulk per pound by reason
of the bran. Either formula would
be benefited by the addition of one
per cent. cut clover.

A Wonderful Cow.

with so distasteful name as Rag
Apple! Blu. that is what Daniel w.
Field, Brockton shoe manufactures,
did recently. And he got back half
the price within a month from the
day of purchase, she having dropped
a calf which had already been sold
to a New York breeder for $4,000.
Pontiac Rag Apple is the full name
of the COW, and she holds the second
highest record for milk and butter
produced of any one cow in the
world, with the bluest of Holstein-
Fresian blood in her veins. She has
a record of production that has
jumped from 279 to 500 quarts of
milk per week. At five cents a quart
for her milk she is netting her owner
an income of $2.2O per day; if turned
into butter the yield would be about
a quarter less than four pounds per
day!-Hartford Courant.

Sweet Corn in June.

You can have corn from the gar
den in June-hot for market, of
course, but for family use-at time
when the corn in your neighbor's gar
den is not yet coming out in tassel.
To do this plant Peep O. Day" corn
about the middle of April in berry
cups, flower pots, or in a box divided
off in partitions, making the ground
very rich with ashes, manure and
some complete fertilizer. Put in lots
of it, for where the ground is kept
moist there is no danger of burning
the roots. There should be nearly
two quarts of earth to each hill.
To get sweet corn in June, first
plant Peep O. Day indoors about
April /, in box partitioned off into
small compartments, or plant in
berry boxes or flower pots.
AS soon as the corn begins to come
it, it must be set out of doors, or
it will get "spindly." 1t must be
either brought in at night, or, better,
covered with sash, which can be re.
moved ON sunny days. With Peep
O. Day" corn four plants can be left
to each hill, and from ten to fifty
hills, each yielding from six to ten
small but delicious ears to each hill,
can be started thus very easily, get
ting big enough to begin using the
last of June. Some gardeners dig
hole in the garden, fill it with fresh
manure, pack it down, and thus to
some stakes driven in each corner
nail some old boards on which can
be laid storm sash taken from the
house. A sunny bay window would
answer as well-the corn must have
sun. When your neighbors are plant
ing their corn set out the corn, taking
care not to disturb the roots. In case
of a late frost, the hills can be COW
cred with newspapers, boxes or bas-
kets at night, taking care to put them
on at or before sundown.

The Girl No Man Wants.

The kind of girl who expects her
path to be strewn with bouquets,
chocolates, theatre tickets and treats
generally will find her popularity
short lived, no matter how charming
she may be.
The average young mans pocket
cannot stand the strain long, and he
will turn to some other girl, less at
tractive, perhaps, but who will be
content with the attentions he can
afford to bestow on her.
1t is girls place, says Health, to
see that the expenses a young man
incurs for her pleasure shall not exs
eeed what he can easily afford. .

Value of Glover Hay,

All in all, we consider red clover
hay much superior to timothy, says
FARMERS Call. We do not know
what dhe chemical analysis shows.
We kn0w what the COW, calf, steer,
sheep and horse have uniformly tes-
titled. ItSs easier to spoil clover hay
in the making than it is timothy hay.
That is to be considered. 1t is i'm
portant to cut the clover before it
gets too ripe. NAnd timothy is not
near so much damaged in the swath
or windrow by rain as is clover. But
In these days of wide-cut mowers, and
hay leaders and rickers and forks,
one can handle the clover with little
danger of damage. OF course if it
is very heavy one should use tedder.
1t seems that the Illinois Agricul-
tural Experiment Station has been
making tests to determine the rela-
tive value of timothy and clover, and
these results are reported: Twenty
horses were put on feed. They cost
s185 each, on the average, at the
outset, and sold at s2SS.S7, profit
that looks decidedly attractive. In
this experiment, horses fed on corn,
oats and clover hay gained PIT
pounds each in ninety-two days. At
twenty cents this would mean $55.4O,
and at the beginning of the expert
ment a responsible horse dealer
offered the experiment station au-
thorities that price for all the gain
made. In the case of the lot fed on
the same ration, but with timothy
substituted for clover, the gain was
but 142 pounds, and the timothy ra-
tion cost more than clover.

Color of Fruit.

1t matters little about the color of
fruit used in homerconsumption, but
market fruits must have good color,
as the eye is caught by it and this
leads to more ready sale. Clear
air and sunshine are the first requi-
sites for producing color, and for this
reason the Connecticut hills are par
ticularly adaptable to the needs of
the fruit raiser. Trees should be
open headed, well cultivated in the
early season and not at all later.
Proper fertilization is also an i'm
