W Invite mmmnnlonHnin from nil por.on who sre Inti.reatwl lu uiattttrfl properly belntiKluff to this de partment. To Make Hens Lay. Put two or moo quarts of water In a kettle, and one large seed pepper or two entail ones, then jiut the kettle over the Are. When the water holla, stir In course Indian menl until ynu have a thick mush. Let It cook an hour or so ; feed hot. Horse radish chopped fine and stirred Into naush, as prepared under the above directions, Is also very good ; and for results we are getting from five to ten eggs per day, whereas, previous to this feeding, we had not had eggs for a long time. We hear a great dual of complaining from other people about not getting eggs. To such we would recommend cooked feed hot. Dolled apple skins, seasoned with red pepper, or boiled potatoes, seasoned with liorso raddlsh, and good for feed, much better than uncooked food. Corn, when fed to the hen by Itself, has a tendency to fat ten hens rather than .produce the more profitable egg laying. A spoonful of sulphur stirred with their feed occasion ally, will rid them of vermin and tone up their systems. It Is especially good for young chickens or turkeys. Out of a flock of ten hatched last November, we have lost but one. They have been fed cooked feed mostly, and are growing finely. .ESs. Ashes for Cattle. The Maine " Farmer" suye : " One of our substantial subscribers, In a recent conversation, gave his experience in treating meat stock affected with the habit of eating wood, chewing bone, ect. Ills cattle were one spring effected in this way. They became thin In flesh, refused to eat hay, and presented a sick ly appearance. He put about four bushels of leached ashes In a barnyard and threw out to them about a shovel ful each day. They all ate it with evi dent relish. After turning them out to pasture, he put one peck of dry ashes per week on the grouud in the pasture. They ate It all up and gnawed off grass where It had been lying. The cattle be gan to Improve, gaining flesh and look ing better than they had for several years. He now gives one quart of ashes, mixed with the same quantity of salt, to twelve head of cattle, about once a week, and finds it to agree with them wonderfully." A Rat-Proof Corn-Crib. "If several years are a fair test, I have a rat-proof eorn-crlb one of my own contrivance, built with my own hands, on the following plan and size: Sixteen feet long, five feet wide, eight feet from the floor to the plate above, three bents, sills framed into the posts eigh teen inches from the ground, short way. A 2 by 7 joist, sixteen feet long, set in outside of posts, to correspond with sills. Plates spiked on top of posts;' four-Inch scantling for nail ties half way between; four scantlings, 2 by 4, lengthwise, to sustain the floor. The floor is of inch plank, doubled, laid crosswise and sawed off even with the outside sleeper, to which the lower ends of siding are nailed. The door is set in eighteen inches above the floor, or three feet from the ground. The crib was built in the spring of 1871 , has been used ever since. None of the family ever saw a rat there. J. C. Hawley. To Destroy Insects and Flies. Especially at this season of the year housekeepers find their patience moat sorely tried.and families their peace and comfort disturbed by the prevalence of one sort or another or of many sorts of insects about their premises. They ea gerly seize on any remedy suggested for the extermination of the pests, but a victory is seldom entirely acheived. A late number of the Journal of Chemistry believes hot alum water the best insect destroyer known. It says: "Put the alum into hot water and let it boil till all the alum is dissolved ; then apply it hot with a brush to all cracks, closets, bedsteads and other places where any insects are found. ' Ants, bed-bugs, cock roaches and creeping things are killed by it; while it has no danger of poison ing the family or Injuring property." The material costs but a small sum, and is perfectly harmless to human life. tSTMost farmers have noticed that in fattening swine especially when they are crowded rapidly, they always appear weak in their hind legs, and sometimes lose the use of them entirely. An intel ligent farmer says that he and bis neigh: bors have made a practice of feeding bone meal in such cases, and find that a small quantity mixed with the dally feed will prevent any weakness, and strengthen the animals so as to admit of the most rapid forcing.
