OVER FEEDING YOPNG ANIMALS —Over
feeding an animal is worse in its effects
than a spare diet. A deficiency of foNl
prevents growth to sm equivalent extent,
or at least it prevents fattening, while it
may sustain the animal in moderate growth.
But a tpare diet, especially of rich food,
is indispensable to the thrift of young ani
luals. A great many more of these are
stunted and injured by over-feeding than
by under feeding. A case has recently
occurred with me which may be worth
noting: A rather opinionated and wilful
hired man, who requires the closet watch
ing In feeding the stock, in defiance of strict
orders, gave some young Berkshire pigs,
gome cotton seed meal in their feed, in the
expectation that it would help them grow.
Their teed had been skimmed milk with a
quart of middlings to the pailful. Con
siderable more cotton seed meal was added
to the feed during my absence from home
for a day and a night, and, on my return
the next day, two of the young pigs were
taken with convulsions and severe spasms.
Ihey died the next day, when two more
were taken, and soon after two more. First
they slowly turned round and round, then
stood with the head in a corner and pressed
against the wail or yard ieuce; the jaws
were chopped together and they foamed at
tne mouth. After a tew hours they lay
upon their side and struggled violently
with the legs until they died. A dose ot
l&rd oil allayed the symptoms for a time,
aud had It been given at the fit at would
probably have saved them. On opeuing
them the lungs were found congested and
very red in patches, the brain, also,
was much congested, the blood-vessels be
ing a dark blue. The stomach aud mtes
tines were filled with cotton-seed meal,
Le milk having been digested, bo short
a case of indigestion, or stomach staggers,
as it is popularly called, is rare; but the
pigs were but 2 mouths old, and had pro
bably been misted previously. Coitou-seed
meal is too rich a food tor young animals,
and so rich a food that it should be given
with caution even to an old one. This is
the first loss of any animals by death that
has occured to me in over 25 years' expe
rience.
LlME. —Much of the reading winch forms
the literature of liming lands is of au Eug
lisn origin. English wheat growers are
loud m iheir praises of lime, but it must
Dot be forgotten that the best wheat land
of England is its dry laud, and that the
English wheat growers use manure much
more liberally tnaa our farmers, as a rule,
are accustomed to da Of itself lime is of
no benefit to the pla it. it acts chiefly in
p eparing other material for food. Lime
is found W the auaJyeia of plant remains,
but it seems to be taaen up only when iu
combination with something else. Pr&c
--t cally, our fanners find benefit from it on
ly when a heavy dressing of stable manure
is given with the lime, or when a large
ami unt ol vegetable manner is already in
the land. Thus, if a piece of wood-land
be newly bioken up, a liming of the land
is as good as a heavy coat of manure.
Swamp muck, wtih a little lime added, is
made of considerable more value. S.wply
oats or wheat stubble limed and turned
down has given good crops, and every
green manure, such as clover, if huicd
oefore being turned under, is much more
p iweiful in its action on the succeeding
wiop than if the simple green-growing crop
alone is used. But if the lime aloue is
applied to the laua, and that laud has al
ready been well worked, or if naturally
light and poor, there is no surer way to
make the poverty worse. It is a good old
maxim that c rcumst&nces alter cases. In
no farming operation can this be better
applied than iu the use of liixie. It is a
capital thing in some cases, but a very
bad agent m many others.
.FEEDING tr jughs for poultry, properly
constructed, ought to be generally substi
tuted for the wasteful practice of feeding
from tbe ground. Tbe 'reasons why" aie
obvious. Wbere tbere is a scramble for
tbe food tbat is tbrowu belter skelter, tbe
weak are prevented by the stroug from get
ting their snare until the latter are oatisfied,
and the food is trampled into tbe dirt. It
is no advantage to fowls to eat sand, dirt
or gravel mixed with their food. Tbe
graytl and other indigestible substances
necessary to the proper trituration of tbeir
food in tbe gizzard can be given separately,
and should be. A simple trough may be
made, detended by slats placed vertically
or on a convenient angle, with space sutli
cient for the passage of the bead, th is pre
venting tbe trampling and soiling of the
food, which will not be wasted, ns iu the
case wiere it is tbiown carelessly on the
ground.
ALL food yeyond such amount as is pro
perly digested and assimilated by tbe ani
mal is a source of loss to tbe owner, and
tbat in two ways: First, the food is lost;
second, the animal is uot kept in tbe best
condition for getting tbe most out of its
feed—its stomach is overloaded and its
uigestive apparatus more or less disarrang
ed! Just inside the limits of assimilation
is tbe point to have in view in feeding; in
tnis way the animal will have a good ap
petite, and other things being equal, is
sure to give tbe best returns for food con
sumed. There is a golden mean in feeding
lann stock, which the farmer Bhould find.
TOE poul'ry keeper who takes advantage
of aii the litile aids to successful poultry
keeping wiil always see that the drinking
water is uot only renewed in cold weather,
as well as in summer, but that tbe water
in tbe winter is warmed before it is given
to tbe fowls. It is not necessary to iet
iorth tbe why and the wherefore of the
benefit of warming the drinking water,
bet it down for a fact tbat waim water is
better than cold for poultry in the winter,
and act accordingly.
CONDIMENTS and stiuiuLn's are not ap
proved ot by many breeders, but we must
remember thai birds feedieg on nuts, in
sects, berries, etc., in a wild state, require
no conainients ot any kind, yet domesti
cated fowls need a little spice in their diet.
Red pepper is a healthy seasoning for the
regular diet, as it is a harmless tonic, warm
and stiinulaiing. DJ not be afraid to put
a liberal dash of it in the morning meal for
the fowls. It will do them good, and
the cost is trifling.
JN winter and early spring, to keep up
egg production, the fowls must have some
tt.iijg to work on. The best way to supply
them, if there is not enough of waste meat
scraps from the breeder's table to meet the
required demand, is to get scraps from the
buicher or slaughter house. The waste
meat, offal aud the bloody pieces which
are unsalable, can be bought for a cent
or two a pound.
Frofessor Foote ol Philadelphia, has a
group of quartz crystals measuring about
four feet by three m superficial area. A
group iu the Umversity of Naples weighs
nearly half a ion. A crystal at Miian is
three and a quarter feet long and five and
a half in circumference, and weighs 870
pounds; and another crystal, at Pans, is
ihree feet in diameter and the same in

HUMOROUS.
HONEST, BUT NOT RELIABLE ; Not long
since a lady called on Mose Schaumburg
to find out if a colored woman, who had
formerly been a servant at his house,
waa honest, she having given him as a
reference. "She vas honest, too hon
est to suit me, put she vas not reliable."
•'How in the world can that be?" "Veil,
von day I leaves a live tollar pill on de
floor and 1 tells Matildy to sweep dot
room out. I slioost vant to see if she
keeps 4ot bill." "Well, did she keep
the bill?" 4 No,she brings me dot pill."
"That was not reliable, for dot pill vas
counterfeit. I vas in hope she duke dot
pill and den I would never have paid
her dot twenty dollars I owed her, but
she fooled me' by bringing me dot pad
pill pack, so I caunot say she vas relia

REAL ESTATE NOTE : "When I mar

INTER-URBAN AMENITIES : 4 'She's a
dear, good girl," said a St. Louis young
man in reference to a Chicago fair one ;
"] assure you, father, she is all soul."
44 Yes," replied his stern parent, the old
prejudice against the Garden City em
bittering his words; "I saw her foot
j print in the sands by the lakeside.
You are right ; she is all sole."
A SUGGESTION : "Lend me five dol
lars, Joe?" 44 Can't do it ; iu fact, I am
just going over to try to borrow five
from the doctor." 44 We11, then, you
might as weU make it ten and I'll take
five of it. It will make it easier to pay,
you know, if it is divided up between
us,"
RHCEPE : 44 How do you keep off the
canker worms?" said the visitor ; 4 'they
destroy everything that grows." 44 Oh
very easily," said Mr. Emerson, in his
mild way ; 44 we kill them as we do poli
ticians—with printing ink."
MAKING ROME HOWL : "Amicus Cato,

Major Veritas."
4 T am afraid, dear wife, that while I
am gone absence will conquor love."
44 Oh never fear, dear husband ; the
longer you are away, the better I shall

THE Oil City Derrick man thus aadlv
moralizes : 4 'A great many men would
rather be a receiver of a defunct insur
ance company than a door-tender iu the
house of the Lord."
44 D0 you play croquet?" 44 N0, I

POVERTY is hard, but debt is horrible;

to be the two worst evils of our life.
WHY do you call this brand of

Copying Engravings. —To copy en

ami wheu this has partly dried (so that the
varnish will not run into the p tt per)lay the
smoothly printed side down upon the var
nished surface, and put it under s igbt uni
formly apportioned pressure tor twenty
four hours. Then moisten the back of
the paper, and by means of soft rubber
rub off tbe softened paper. If this is done
with care the inked lines will remain at
tached to the varnished glass surface. As
the thin varnish is quite transparent, this
is equivalent to transferring the engraving
to the glass surface. Tne transfer is fre
quently improved in appearauce by giving
the plate (and transfer) a second coat of
the varnish. For 1 intern purposes it is bet
ter to cover ihe surface bearing the transfer
with a second plate of glass, and bind the
edges with thin cloth or stout paper.
Dr. George lhin t of London, empha
sizes strongiy the advantage of using some
preparation of bon.e e acid to overcome the
offensive odor of tlie feet, and gives in
stances in which this treatment has been
thoroughly successful. In some cases he
recommends the Wearing of stockings and
cork soles saturated with the acid. In
others he prescribes an ointmen-, or rather
a kind of giycenne cream, as follows: A
solution of boracic acid is incorporated
with a fatty basis of wLite wax aud almond
oil, which produce a soft, homogeneous
mixture, free from the irritating crytalline
plates of the crystal that are apt to separate
from vaseline, lie finds that this is also
a very useful remedial agent for inflamed
feet, as after long wa king tours, and in
such eczemas as are produced by the irri
tation of dyed under-clothing.

COUOANUT CAKE. —Cocoanutcake made
from this recipe is as nice a caKe as one
need wish to make : Tiike the whitos
of Ave eggs, one small cup of sweet
milk, one cup and two thirds of another
of granulated sugar, two-thirds of a cup
of butter, one teaspoon fill and a half
of baking powder, about three cups of
sifted flour, flavor with almond ei tract,
bake in layers. Beat the whites of two
or three eggs to a frost, add pulverized
sugar enough to make rather thin frost
ing aud put between the layers ; ou this
scatter ooooauut; put on enough to
make a nice layer; for the top and sides
of the cake the frosting should be a lit
tle thicker. • The best way to get the
cocoauut ou the sides is to put it ou
with your hand; you can press it gently
upon the frosting and make it stick toil.

by Peligol in La Nature: Dissolve 160

in 15 parts of boiliug water, and gently
pour 11 iuto a test tube so as to half flill it,
keeping the solutiou warm by placing the
glass in hot water. D ssolve 100 parts by
weight of acetate of soda in 16 parts of
hot water, and carefully pour it into the
same glass, the latter will form a layer on
the surface of the former and will not mix
with it. When cool there will be two
supersaturated solutions. If a crystal ot
hyposulphate of soda be attached to a
thread aud carefully passed into the glass,
it will traverse the acetate solutiou with
out disturbing it, hut on reselling the hy
posulphate solution will cause tue latter to
crystallize at once in large rhomboidal
prisms with oblique terminal faces. When
the lower lolutioa is completely crystal
lized, a crystal of acetate of soda similarly
lowered into the upper solutiou will cause
it to crystallize in oblique rhomboidal
prisms. The appearance of two different
kinds of crystals will uot fail to surprise
those not acquainted with such experi
ments.
