FOB FARM AND GARDEN.
Feeding Corn and Oils.
F. II. Steuben Co., N. Y.f writes to
the Prairie Farmer: There is no ques
tion but that oats are the best grain we
can raise on which to feed horses; they
contain more of the elements of nutri
tion than any other grain, and therefore,
horses that are fed on oats can perform
their labor with a less degree of fatigue
than when fed on any other article of
food. Oati are the ino3t natural food for
horses; and with this grain Ihcy can bs
brought to the highest stato of physical
perfection. On the contrary, corn-fed
horses lack vitality, sweat easily, and
consequently cannot perform so much
labor as will horses fed on oats. Corn
is deficieut in some of the elements of
nutrition so necessary to replace tho
constantly worn out material of the
body.
Gnod Butter.
To make good butter, uniformly, re
quire both judgment and skill. There
is far more in the business than merely
milking the cow?, skimming tho pans,
managing the cream and churning the
l.uttcr. All these, and more too, may
be done with cara and precision, the
butter may be well worked, and after
all an inferior salt may spoil it. We
know a party whose butter is preferred
by good customers, because "it is al
ways even and alike,'' qualities it could
not maintain except by constant care in
every operation of manufacture or ma
nipulation. And there is no branch of
mral industry which "p 13's" better than
butter making, after the reputation of
an especial "brand" his become estab
lished. Persons who are particular
about their butter ought to bo willing
to pay a good price for it, for it is not
easy to produce it.- Cincinnati Com

7. When the bulb is placed put the
glass in a cool, dark cupboard, or in
any place where light is excluded,
there to remain for about six weeks, as
the root feed more freely in the dark.
8. "When the roots are freely de

weeks), remove by degrees to the full

Kt i p 1 lie S:itll I.igM.
Daik stables are an abomination, and
should not be tolerated. There is no
necessity to sacrifice comfort, cither in
winter or summer, to secure enough
light. A horse's eyes arc enlarged
the pupil of the eye is -by being kept
in a dark stable; he has a harness put on
to him and suddenly brought out into
the bright, glaring sin light, which con
tracts the pupil so sud lenly as to cause
extreme pain. I5y persevering in this
very foolish and i: judicious as well as
crusl practice, the nerves of tho eye be
come impaired, and if continued long
enough, lo3s of sight will cnsu To sec
how very painful it is to fcc a bright
ight after having been in the dark, take
a walk some dark night for a
short time, till the eye becomes
accustomed to the darkness.
then drop suddenly into some well
lighted room and you will be scarcely
able to see for a few moments in the
sudden light. You know how pain
ful it is to yourself, then why have your
horse repeatedly to bear such unneces
sary pain? A dark stable is invariably
a damp one, and such stables wc are not
willing to put cither a valuable working
or driving horse in. Give good venti
lation, let the sunshine and flic air have
n chaucc to effect an ent rance, and your
stabler will be purer and more healthy
than if you take such pains to exclude
them and the good influence they in
variably bring.

The General-rnrpme Horo.
A writer in the Western Farm Journal
discourses wisely: "While it is be
lieved to be impossible to produce an
all purpose horse or even to establish a
general-purpose brcc.l of horses, it is be
lieved to be entirely practicable to pro
duce horses adapted to a variety of pur
poses, or general-jurpose horses, by the
use of sires of one or the other of the
well-established spjcial-purpose breeds;
and it is my purpose to show that the
trotter possesses special characteristics
and is better adapted to the production
of the genera!-purpose horse than
any other having breeding suf
ficient to produce uniformity in the off
spring. While many general-purpose
animals are as profitable practically an
individually the equals of many special
purpose animals or full-bloods, yet they
cannot perpetuate themselves as general
purpose animals, for the reason that a
sire whose breeding represents general
characteristics, however good he may be
as an individual, has no power of choos
ing whether he will give to his offspring
one quality or another, or a combination
of any or all of them, and hence has 1
power of producing uniformity in h:
offspring.
The tendency in such cases is to tran?
. ii only the qualities adapted to th
-urroundiDgs, which as often icadi ;
.generation as to improvement. A m
uhose breeding represents only spcc! il
characteristics or is a full-blood of some
special-purpose breed must transmit tc
his offspring these special qualities 01
none, and hence must produce uniform
ity in his offspring. Aside from feed
and care, success ia breeding general
purpose horses depends on choosing
sire of some general-purpose breed
whose special characteristics come aa
near as possible to what is desired in thi
offspring. Our Country Home.

The bitter taste in cider in some cases
is undoubtedly caused by leaving the
apples lying in heaps until some of them
mildew, or are attacked by a dry rot,
which usually means that as fast as the
substance of the apple decays, fungus
plants arc present to suck up its juices.
As a matter of course this kind of rot
has an acid or bitter taste, as any one

' Luck with flowers" consists in tak

(Jetting the Worth or That Ham.
"John, have you charged that ham?"
asked a grocer of his clerk a few morn
ings since.
"What h:im? ' was the question in an
swer. "The ham that .was sold about ten
minutes ago.''
"1 did not know that a ham had been
sold. I did not sell any."
"Well, I did, and I don't remember
to whom I sold it. Do you not remem
ber?" "This is the first I knew of any ham
being sold."
The grocer thought he had lost the
price of the ham. Not so the clerk.
He looked over the list of orders and
tried to remember the persons who had
been in the store that morning. Then
he charged the ham to every one of
these persons, seventeen in all.
"Sixteen of these will kick," re-
marked the clerk, "and the seventeenth
I is the man who got the ham."
The proprietor raised the clerk's
wages at once.
Both anxiously watched the result.
Of the seventeen persons to whom the
i ham had been charged, just four did
! the kicking act; the rest paid their
bills without further inquiry, so tha
grocer got paid thirteen times for the
ham. Patterson (N. J.) Press.

Weighing the Baby.
Dr. Chaille says i:i the N w Orleans
Medical Journal: Sl ice the first year is
Isy far the most critical period of life,
ind since weight gives the most reliable
evidence- whether a baby is thriving
:r not, sanitarians now teach
that parents should, through
out the lirt year, weigh their
babies and record the result every week,
43 is now habitually done in the bcit
hospitals and asylums for i ifants. Dur
ing the first three days of life there is
always a lo?s of weight which should be
fully regained by the seventh day, by
which a baby fu ;ht to weigh fully as
much as at birth. During the njxt three
weeks there shou'.d be a gain of at least
from two to four ounces every week.
The greatest gain of weight throughout
life is during the first live months, the
maximum b i:ig usually attained during
the second month, that is, when a baby
is sail to be cmc month (30 to CO
.lays) o'd. The increase during this
nnxinmm month should be from
four to seven nunc weekly, and during
the three succeeding months about five
ounces weekly. During the remaining
seven mouths of tho first year the gain
should be at least two to four ou iccs
weekly. Tho gain is less than iudi
rnted at times when the infant may
suffer, whether from tecthi-g or other
cause. Finally the growth of the head
ron tabling the brain, on which man's
superiority depends, deserves reference.
White from birth to full growth tho
body elongates three to four times, the
head only doubles its length. The
greatest growth is during the first two
years, and by the seventh year its
growth is so nearly completed that Dr.
Hammond asserts that the hat which
fits a boy seven years oi l will fit him
when a man.
Pioneer Telegraphy.
The talk of a new telegraph line be
tween New York and S in Francisco has
aroused tho old-timers here to lively
reminiscences of the building of the fir-t
line across the plains. One pole, 100
miles west of Laramh, was set up four
times, and each tinis hacked down by
Indian tomahawks. Each time there
was a bloody skirmish with the redskins
for temporary possession of tho stump.
At last the pole was given to a young
man who is now high up in the manage
ment of the Wester i Union. He laid a
mine in the hob, set up a new pole,
trailed the fuse to an ambush of rocks
close by and waited with two armed
"riends. Then a band of eight Sioux
cam.3 along and held a war dance around
the pole. When the mine was fired, all
but three were killed, and those three
carried off Minie balls with them. The
powder blew up the polo again, but it
cleaned the hole out nice'.y for a new
one, which was thereafter 1st alone.

I heard a fellow say once that he

thick as straw in a harvest field, with a
mouth eighteen or twenty inches across,
and run through God's moral univer. e
a mile a minute for an hour and a half
and never hit a single itlea. That is

. I have said frequently there are too
many animals in this world for the

would strike as pure a dog as ever was

Some men are so in the habit of tell

Change of climate and travel is no doubt
beneficial in some classes of diseases, but it is
impossible to secure, while traveling, the
proper care and nursing, the cheerful com
forts of home, which are often necessary ad
juncts to medicine in promoting recovery.
In many ailments arising, as so many do, .
from derangements of those primary organs,
the kidneys and liver, with the proper remedy
to use, recovery is much more rapid at one's
own fireside.
MajorS. B. Abbott, of Springfield, Mo.,
was attacked with serious troubles, and after
a long course of medical treatment, tried to
6nd re'ief at Hardin Sulphur Springs in
California, and visited a number of other
noted health resorts, but all to no purpose.
At last he went home he was induced to try
Warner's safe cure for his kidney troubles
and soon became a well man.
Dr. Gustav Weber, a leading physician of
Dessau, Germany, writes Warner's safe cure
Co.'s branch at Frankfort, Sept. 12, 1887:
"For many years I have suffered from in
flammation of the kidneys, and each year
was obliged to visit Carlsbad for temporary
relief. I have finished my fifteenth bottle of
Warner's safe cure and have completely re
covered." The main thing is to find the right remedy,
then recovery from all the many ailments
that are the result of kidney derangement is
roost easily secured at home surrounded by
home comforts. There are few diseases for
which travel is, on the whole, beneficial, but
there are many which may be cured by put
ling the kidneys in a healthy state, thus
driving the cause of the disease from the
system.
We are no longer happy so soon as we wish

A Bloody A (Tray
is often the result of "bad blood" in a famii
or community, but nowhere is bad blood more
destruntivenoss of happiness and health than
in the human system. When the life current
is foul and sluggish with impurities, and is
slowly distributing its poisons to every part of
thebody,the peril to health,and life even, is im
minent. Early symptoms are dull and drowsy
feelings, severe headaches, coated tongue, poor
uiineuie, inuigesiion ana general lassitude.
Delay in treatment may entail the most scri.
ous consequences. Don't let disease get a
stronghold on your constitution, but treat
ytturself by using Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery, and be restored to the blessings of
health. .All druggists.
