''Having used Peruna for catarrhal

great remedial excellence and do not

all persons affected by that disorder. 1t

STOCK NOTES.

COrnstalks contain large overbal.
ance OF starchy materials and should
not be used in balancing a ration of
corn.
Angora goats cannot stand croWding
together; hence they should not be
kept in large tocks on small farms.
Cattle differ greatly in their graz
ing power. This is largely matter
of inheritance.
Corn and clover hay or corn and al
falfa hay make a good balance in the
ration.
If you would raise large sheep. do
not breed the ewes before they are
a year to IS months old. Also feed
literally.
Allow one ram to every 40 or so
ewes and take the rams away as
soon as the breeding season is over.
The number of pigs to the litter can
be increased by continually picking
out the SOW pigs from the bigges. lit.
tiers.
If you are feeding a small amount
of corn to scws on pasture shell it
and scatter it widely. Then no one
will get more than her share.

London.-The coast guardsmen at
Beachy Head were notified on a recent
morning by prawner that a young
lady was signaling for help from a
ledge on the cliff. Chief Officer Hog
ben and several of his men proceeded
with ropes to the spot, about hun

taken to effect a rescue.
The cliff at this point is almost per.

the young woman was found. AL

AUTUMN AND WORK HORSES.
Do Not Neglect Them or Half-Feed
Them When Hard Work Is Over.

It always seems like cruel, as we'll
as risky practice, to work the
horses through the spring, summer
and fall, feeding them we'll and
grooming them, then as soon as the
heavy work is finished take the grain
away from them and turn them out to
shift for themselves. In the first
place, their systems are not accus-
toned to the grass feed, and it is a
shock to then-an abrupt let-down.
1t is no wonder if they lose flesh rap
idly and their general appearance be-
comes one of sad detection and un-
thriftiness.
The frost-bitten grass is not suf-
ficient to sustain them; they eat a
great deal of it, get podgy, lose flesh
and ambition rapidly. The system is
not prepared to stand against the cold,
frosty nights and stormy days, and
the consequence is that they catch
cold and some attain that condition of
stomach and lungs called the heaves.
The thoughtless owner often at
tributes the depreciation in value and
usefulness to bad luck, instead of bad
management.
believe it is good plan, continues
this correspondent of the Orange
Judd Farmer, to give the work
horses a run to grass after the heavy
work is done, but would not take all
the grain away, nor leave them out
nights and during cold storms. The
run at fall grass will save part of
the hay, but it should not constitute
the whole diet. 1t is bad management
to let the horses run down in flesh
now when they can be sustained on
much less grain, and at less cost, than
they can be put in condition with to-
ward spring. Exercise in the field
each day is very beneficial, and the
taste of grass is change which they
relish; but do not go to extremes and
overdo the matter. The prudent man
who has in mind the comfort of his
animals, as well as the financial value
of them, will keep a watchful eye on
them and jealousy guard them
against conditions that will depreciate
them in appearance, value and useful
ness.

HOG TRAP FOR RINGING TIME,
Continuance That Will Make the Task

The accompanying illustration shows
a handy device for ringing and sepa.
rating hogs. The front and adjustable
bars only are represented, but the
body is in the shape of an oblong box,
long and deep enough to admit any
sized hog and narrow enough to pre-.
vent his turning around.
The parts of the front illustrated as

with the pieces E and. F between the
strips. The double pieces of &C should
be connected with four strong bolts,
and the pieces of H d should have
holes bored through them; then the
bars are put down and the forked end

making it stationary.
The adjustable hand bars A and B
should be made of two by four lumber,
and slightly followed out, so as to fit
the neck of the hog. They are forked
on the end and so fit the bolts that
are in G G..
The back of the trap is made like
the front, says Prairie Farmer, but no
bars are used. Instead a board is
dropped down in place, thereby keep
ing the hog from backing out.
The hog is admitted at the back, and
when he gets to the front he is gripped
around the neck with the bars. The
iron pin is put through each bar and
the holes of H d. He is held in this
position while being rung after which
one of the bars is slipped out and the
hog passes on.
