The favorite physic drench for q
COW consists of one to two pounds Of
epson salts. half to two ounces of
ground ginger root. cupful of black
strap molasses, half to one cupful Of
salt and three or four pints of warm
water Be careful not to mix coarsely
ground ginger root, caraway seed fen

particles always cause irritation and
cough The average COW takes the
smaller dose above mentioned. The
large dose is for a big bull or heavy
COW or given in a case of great neces-
sity or emergency. for example, when
a COW has impaction of the bowels or
when she has taken some poisonous

But many, many of the skirts are

Another Paris idea is to have the
skirt perfectly plain, somewhat high

or three inches wide. One smart mod
ell had three of these frills or ruffies

WEAVING time of the foal upon the
farm comes usually ut period of the
year when little grass is attainable and
when late autumn grasses are coarse
and of poor nutrient value and cannot
well be depended upon as feed hence
it is best to stake dependence upon
bright clean hay from the mows as
roughage. If one has alfalfa hay it is
fortunate. There is no better feed
for the weaning colt. A balanced ra-
ton is contained therein and one easily
digested.
A paddock for the weanling. with
plenty of such roughage and supplied

ling colt. The water supply is often
neglected, and water should be sup

THE COLT
At WEAVING TIME

The profitable draft horse is grown
from Il foal that has been kept grow
Ing from start to finish and matured
with strong sinew and muscle, writes
G. w. Brown in the National Stock
man. Such an animal is of value, and
the few pounds that are placed upon
matured animal, with size, proper
shape and good weight, are worth dol
lars to the owner. This cannot be ac-
complished with an animal that has
been allowed to go bad at the crucial
point in its life-weaning.
The best horse is grown from a dam
that is bred only every other season,
and there are good reasons set forth.
The dam is not only much easier kept
in condition. but the foal may be
and is better prepared to meet the
weaving period. Then it is not neces-
sary to wean the young colt ut so ear
ly period in order to avoid danger in
robbing the strength of the dam and
her fetus. This is very important to
the weanling, as it may stay at the
side of the dam q much longer time.
If supplemental foods, such as bran,
middlings. gluten feed, chopped oats
and corn, have been introduced in a
proper ration previous to weaving time
this period is easily tided over in the

A queen bee lives from two to five

There seems to be abundant evil
dence that the Italian bees do work
more upon red clover than the black
bees. and therefore that they do have
longer tongues.
If bees are to be wintered in cellar
put several pieces of carpet or similar
material over brood frames. No cover

How to Make Elder Flower Water.

yourself. haven't you heard your grand
mother tell how popular 1t was when
she was young? The recipe used to be

Strip from their stalks enough elder
flowers to fill pint measure. Over
these pour two quarts of boiling water,
and let 1t infuse for hour. Pour it

tly for a quarter of an hour, then set
away to cool. When cold. strain
