The short, tough tendons taken from the kangaroo, which are used for sewing sovare wounds, are particularly valuable, and have saved many lives; Chey hold for about a month befor© they break away. Silk thread will hold for much longer, sometimes six months, while the silver wire Is practically Indistructible. Thus a surgeon Is able to select a thread that will last as long as tlio wound should take to heal, and wiH then dlsappeaar completely.

" The growing of root crops In ibis country is only secondary to grain and hay, hut in Europe beets, carrots and turnips are prized more highly than anji other crops, and It Is In England, where turnips ore largely used, that we procure our best specimens of cat tle, sheep and swiue. Nearly aW of the pure breeds of live stock in this ooun try came originally from England. An acre of land that will produce 5000 pounds of timothy hay will produce 25,000 pounds of mangels, and the live stock will thrive better on mangels and hay than on hay or beets alone. The labor required to grow root crops Is much less than formerly, nnd it will pay to bestow the labor if the livo stock must give a profit, SALT FOR FARM ANIMALS. ' So essential is the regular nnd fre quent use of salt for the maintenance of health that animals, especially veg etable feeders, living In a state of na ture, instinctively travel many miles to saline springs, the sea Rhore or to Incrustations or beds of salt to get It. It has been noticed that the skin and hair of animals deprived of this neees- Kliy become rough and dry; that they do not take on flesh and thrive equally as well as do those having frequent supplies of salt. This lias been shown to be true" of horses, cattle, sheep and swine. The proper and safest dose to plvo horses Is about one-half to one ounce, once or twice a week. Cattle will take twice that amount. Give Sheep and swine one or two teaspoon fuls; the yonng not as much as adults. —l>r. M. D. "Williams, in Now England homestead. CONVENIENT HOG CHUTE.

' ' PREVENTING LOSS. It Is a loss to keep an animal four years If It can be gotten Into market when three years old, for the year's ttao saved means labor and food, a Well as Interest on capital Invested. With the use of such beef producing breeds as the Shorthorns, Hereford®, Angus and Galloways, an average Weight of 2000 pounds per animal has been obtained In four years, while three-year-olds have reached 1800 pounds, and two-yonr-olds 1400 pounds, the dally Increase being over two pounds for the yearling up to two years old, and from one and one-half pounds tc*one and three-fourths pounds for older animals. The live weights only are given, but animals have dressed sixty-six and a half per cent When In Experiments Showing such results have been fre quently made, and should convince all farmers that they can produce steers that will .weigh 1500 pounds, live Weight In three years, if they will use the proper breeds. Profit is made by nalng tho best animals for the purpose desired. Actual test?* have shown that fowls Which are kept together in large flocks fire not profitable. From ten to twenty hens in one flock fire about the limit, and a larger num ber decreases tbe proportion of profit. Whether you keep ten or a thousand bens they should bo separated, and In that way tho average production of eggs maintained. There nro many reasons why tills is 80, principal among which is the feed ing. It Is wen-nigh Impossible to feed fi larger number of hens at the same time without some of them getting too much and others getting too little With a small flock it is on end'/ mat ter to look after each Individual fowl, anc>noto Its condition from day to day. Any symptom of disease can he read ily detected and a remedy promptly ap plied, nnd unprofitable flocks can by thl3 method bo made to pay.—Home and Farm.
