FARM ' AND .HOUSEHOLD ITEMS Why Cattle Need Salt. i A GorrespoDdout wishes the ' reaton .why cattle ueod salt. . It ia because phos fate of soda must be furnished to the blood, whereas it is phosphate of potash that exists in grains , and grasses grown on soils deficient, as most soils are,, in 'saline or, sodic compound. Whoa salt is taken into the animal system it is partial ly decomposed. j t Spine, of its chlorine unitos with the potassium' of the potash while the liberated sodium is oxydized to form soda,' and this combines with the phosphoric acid from the potash phos phate to form phosphate of soda. Soda also exists in milk. It is this which gives the fluid its slightly alkaline taste when first drawn. If this be absent, as when cattldarft not supplied 8dniD. way vwith salt, the milk is unwholesome. Cattle are apt to prefer grass on lauds top-dressed with two or three hundred weight of salt to tho acre, for the reason that Jthe salt renders the grass sweeter, more tender and more succulent. The weight of gross grown on salted land is, however, likely to be diminished in proportion, as rank ness of growth is prevented. fi. : Canned Fruit. 1 i . Fruit is not only the most delicious but the most healthful food we have, and every family should bo. supplied with it tho year through. In order to have a supply through tho winter and spring, preparations must bo made early. The best modo of preserving is by canning. The old style of preserving a pound of sugar to a pound of fruit is worse than none: ; Glass jars 'with glass covers are the best. i Those jars, with proper care, will keep any kind of fruit without sugar, and will last for a generation. Not only peaches, pears, grapes, tomatoes, and the small fruits, but green beans, peas, cord, and other vegetables, should be canned in large quantities, so that they -may ap pear upon the table not only every day, bat at every meal,, until fruits and . vege tables come around again. " But look at the expense '." some will exclaim. It is not so expensive '' as meat, and are far more healthful as well as palatable. Try it, and save your doctor's bills'. ' 4 "Hens, fulace of Dogs.'' 41 w .. There is liiirdly a family 'that does not throw away enough table scraps to keep at least half a dozen hens, and many that keep a nuisanoe in the shape of a dog, that does no good, but costs more than a dozen good hens, complain that they can not afford to keep hens. One dog in a neighborhood w" generally 1 a- greater trouble to the neighbors than a" flock of hens would be, for if hens are well fed at home ' they will . raroly go away. But whoever saw a dog that was ' not a pest, running across tho newly mads garden, and sticking , his nose into ,, everything j Kill off the curs and give the food to the hens, and yon will find 'pleasure as welt as profit in so doing. We wish there was a tax of one hundred dollars on every drfg kept in the country., Those that are ef value as watch , dogs cbuid, be retained, while the hot of ; Buarling," dirty1 curs would give ' plage , to souie ' jBqrQ useful aai less trontyesonie, pe-j"1 'r. ., n'l.i. n- .i.'.'-ilil!.
