I J STS ERIS. FARM NOTES. LOOK out that the cattle do not get Jousy. A little lard and sulphur, thor- oughly mixed, rubbed along the back- bone from horns to tails once a week for a few weeks, is good, IT is often profitable to grind grain for the pigs where a farmer has a mull of his own and can do it at odd times, But to haul it to mill and back and pay toll takes most of the profit out. IT is the testimony of those who have given it a thorough trial, that pomace is of enough value as a feed for cows, horses or hogs to pay a good pro- fit for the labor in taking care of it. SoME farmers, even at this day, are so blinded by their own ignorance that they are offended when a man tells them truthfully that their butter is not up to the standard of tue market. THE potato beetle will attack nearly all kinds of early plants. They must be watched closely, Egg plants arespecial foods for the beetles, tbey preferring tiem to potatoes, CHURNING without a thermometer 1s as d:flicult as steering a ship without a compass, The proper temperature must be maintained, which cannot be done without a thermometer, CLOVER hay, cut very fine and scalds | ed, is an excellent ration for growiug | pigs that have been weaned.

ONE cause of the stacking of corn in the fields is the lack of room in the barns, as it is a bulky crop. Cheap | sheds, to keep off the water, will pro- tect the fodder, but the loss of fodder by exposure is due largely to the stacks being improperly constructed, the winds throwing them over, A large proportion of fodder is also trampled by stock amd wasted. etm—r—— I¥ your manure heap is low and cannot manure all your land trate your efforts to a smaller area, or purchase fertilizers.

Sell the pig pounds, and keep it no longer than the time when the ratio of gain keeps pace with the proportionate amount of food consumed, one 1s kept, and the single hog, to equal the two G-months-old pigs In total weight, if kept twelve months, must weigh 380 pounds, the cost of which will be greater than to two pigs weighing 180 pounds each in the same period of time, while a higher price per pound will be obtained for the smallerpigs. The fertilizing value of the food consumed is estimated to be equal to nearly one-half the value of the pork. Tune FeepiNe RATION.~-ASs the most essential thing in the early stages is growth, that object should be kept in view only, no attempt to be made to fatten the pig. In fact, .at at the early stage is more detrimental than beneficial, The frame must be made upon which to place the meat, but the use of grain can be made profitable, as a certain proportion of the heat-produe- ing elements are also esential, The food may be varied, consisting of skim- milk, végetables, grass and grain, the pig being well supplied with food from which a supply of the elements for growth predommate. In other words, the pig must not be fed exclusively on grain, or food that will have a tendency to put him in a very fat coodition. A fraction over one pound a day should be the gain in weight, the pig to be sold as soon as it reaches the weight of 130 youn, or when about 6 months ie That Has never been more prevalent or more pros trating than he has been mild and unh influenza epidemic and fevers have visited nearly all our homes, leaving about everybody in tired-ont, tion. of Hood's Sarsaparilia reater than ever, for it Is absolutely unequalled as a bullding-up, gtrengthening medicine, If you have never taken Hood's Sar- saparilla try it and you will realize its recuper EN Ynat Tired Feeling “My health was very poor last spring and see- ing an advertisement of Hood's Sarsaparilla I thought I would try it.

In selecting fish, be sure they are fresh, When fish are fresh and in sea- son, the muscles are firm and the flesh white when cooked.
