, • —Rie and Henry Stoddard
A cow should never. be overfed.
She should never be allowed,to fall
off in her milk,' either in quantity or
quality. Her •feeding - should-be as
regular as her milkinti. In summer
strict watch should be kept, of the
pastures. If they ,begin to fail; than ,
'other feed should'be supplemented—,
either fodder, corn or some other"
cereals. An extra good cow ought
on no account - to be forced to giv . e
milk beyond her norma l ' quantity.
If this is done it will- be ;at the ex- ,
pense of her constitution as well as
that of her progeny. Beyond ,a ra
tional amount of food, even if the
animal can digest it, there can ber4io
profit. Aaain, no two'co*-§ will eat
the same amount of food, while; per
haps-I', one cow prefers adittle'ditier
ent feed from :another; and to these
points the feeder should payia 'good
deal of attention. See that they all
have enough, none of them to much:
- Then if one cow prefers a finer and
anotl . er will eata coarser grown hay
see that they are fed according to .
their preferences, and do not have
the coarse hay fed to one which pre
fers fine and the fine to the one that
would eat the coarse. - If the cows
have to drink from any place other
than brook or river do not turn out
More than two at a . time. Many of
our hired men expee r t a cow to drink
-like a horse, which they certainly do
not: Lead a horse to, the:troagh
and he will drink immediately or
riot. at all, but a cow will usually
stand and look, wet her lips and sip
a mouthful half a dozen time's before
she begins to drink in good earnest.
Some cows, hoWever, will drink im
diately. But in case
_of either cows
or horseproper caie cannot be tak
en, of them Lill their. peculiarities are
%yell understood ; and wlioever un
dertakes to. make the most of his
stock must make every individual
one a, special study. If bows are
watered out of a pail it may be found
that one aninial will drink only from
a certain pakand if :v is made
it will be iristantly detected. Few
.cows will eat hay that another 'cow'
has breathed upon. It is well to hu
mor the animal iri sueli.sases, while,
studying to supply the proper quali- .
ty and quantity of food.—Aniericaii

It is the general eu§tom to seed
grass after some grain - cropsos wheat,
oats or barley ; but When it is desir
ed to get a field -into grass in the
. quickest possible time thiN practice,
need not be followed, says the Amer
ican Agrieultari4. Grass and clo
ver seed may he sown this month
with the probability of success. This
is not without risk; a dry spell may
prevent the seed from •germinating
until the season of growth is pretty
well I•assed; when only a poor "catch"
will be obtained A shelter to tt7:
young grass and . (d r over plant that
protect them from the hot sun, and
at the same tinte prevent the soil
becomincr too dry, •is very de
-
striabid. ~ For this purpose no crop is
better adapted than white turnips
which grow quickly, and with their
broad leaves make - protectiOn to the
rTass seed and yOung piants and
shade for the soil. For the good- of
the Frass it is not' best to have the
turnips grqw very large, otherwise
there maylbe.danger -from smother
ing; but at i fair yield of turnips - may
he secured 'with no &diger to the
crass. The turnips should be pulled
early, at which time the clover will
.be well started, and will soon thick
en up and cover the ground before
winter sets in.
A correspondent of the Indiana
Farmer girps some sensible advice
concerning the treatment of' sheep.
For cold weather they need good
shelter. Feed clover hay in a square
box-rack 3 feet high and 3 feet wide,.
running the whole length of the shed,
with second plank out from bottom
to admit their beads. Never feed
corn except in freezing weather;
then half an car, with husk on, to a
sheep is sufficient. Give a :small
amount Of salt mixed with sulphur
once a week—old Illanawha salt, as
all other kinds of salt have a tenden
cy to scour stock of all kinds. Sul
phur and laid under the armpits of
lambs will drive away ticks. Ewes ,
Should all be tagged. . By laying
them on their backs in a frame made
with supports like a saw-buck this is'
easily done.. Shear abOut • the first

Caring for Sheep.
• ,A - sheep -to -be well and hearty,
says the Lancaster Farmer, ust
not be half starved at any pert of
its birth. It Must be personal .
icomfortable to grow wool everfd
*:;1f its life. If from any cause a sh
is uncomfortable wsingle day ho wl
grow Wool only 364 days '
_in a y
if four months it a time• from ill
health or lack
only
food or - water it
prbduces wool only eight months • , in
a year, there is a-loss of on - e-thint i of
the profits he
.wonld have given Fiji
Owner. A sheep out of conditionl is
subjected to aliments that in go - cil
condition Would , pil,oi have affected'
him. Sheep fat in the fall will go
through the winter and the ordeal of `
lambing with safety and success. If
in thin, weak conditioa, the relaxing
of the system in spring and the extra
demands on the system of the.ewe-
at lambing time bring a series of di
ecases•quite disgusting to the flock
master. No animal rewards - its own
er so mach for liberal feeding and
painstaking care as does the sheep.
The Ohio Farmer gives the fol
lowing cure for foot rot. The foot
must be thoroughly cleaned ' awl, -
every part•of the disease' laid bare.
A solution of blue vitrol, as strong
; as can be made an I as hot as you
' can bare your hand in even for a
moment, having .the liquid three or
four inches deep or deep enough
to cover all affected partS; then hold
the diseased' foot in the liquid ten
minutes, or long enough to penetrate
to all the diseased parts; put the
sheep on a (141 barn floor for twenty
hours to give it a cihanee -to take ef
fect. ..i'more cipeditious way, and
where yOu hardly 'hope to extermi
nate the disease but' keep 'it in 'sub.
jection, is this : After preparing the
feet as for the vitrol cure, take hut,
ter of antimony, pour oil of. vitrul
into it slowly until the 4atin'ig anti
boiling process ceases and apply: with
swab. •
Country . Road Making
It is a matter of 'universal coin;
went .'with travellers that country
road-making.in the united States is
either a lost, 'art or b to-be-acquired
science. The - average selectman or
rbad—agent of ajeountry . town
is us sally deplorably \ignorant the
firstil'ptinciples of making a gO6d,.
road: Nothing -will so surely atl
vance„the growth arid wellbeing of a
,town.,las well: - made and - well-kept
roads.' .Nopart of its domestic eco
nomy will more certainly repay the,
outlay. Nothing mote bespeaks the.
intelligence and charticter or publi6
Ppirit of its citizens. In England
and most of its dependencies the
roads are made directly by the -State
or under its supervision. As a result.
the- contrast:between English roads
. and those of this country is'm - neh in
. favor of the former. A common and
natural mistake - of most towns in this
•
country is that an intelligent fanner
mat necessarily knOw how to make
a dOod - road, but - the reverse is the
fact.-.Road-ma-kina is a subject re
quiring study • and ' a knowledge
