Every animal needs plenty of water.
Water flushes out the organs through

the effete matter. Water, then, when
given to the cow, besides aiding her in
milk production, performs tlie other
office. Western Rural
No cow can give large yields of milk

A good praotlcu! farmer says 1 "When

Farm and Fireside.
In feeding and fattening hogs It is Im
portant to hare a lot as near of tlie same
size, weight and qnality as possible it
wiil sell for a better price than a lot of
various sizes and weights. It when
fatted there are a few small ones, or one
of extra size, the lot will sell for more
in the average if you take these out and
kill for home use or dress for near mar
ket, or sell when a shipment is being
mado of hogs that average with them.
Fravantlve Measure.
Ill many of tlie animal ailments, acci
dents and contagious diseases, preventive
measures are of the most essential serv
ice. Fur instance, when an animal shows
cigns of illnuns, it should be immediately
separated from the herd, flock or drove.
It 111 ly have been the only one exposed
to a futal contagious malady, and its fel
lows thus prevented from taking the
disease. For what is called the "period
of incubation" varies in tho different
maladies from a few days to several
weeks. This, every breeder, stock-raiser
and farmer should understand, as it
might not only save thoir own and their
neighbor, but in contagious diseases, as
pluro-pneumonia, the herds of thoentire
country may be endangered. In fact the
export and import trade of a nation may
be seriously injured, or entirely ruined
for years. Dangerous stakes, by impal
ing unruly animals, may result in the
loss of considerable sums of money, A
farmer might better make his fences safe,
as it will entail but a trifling expense,
than run the risk of losing a valuable
animal. Narrow doors to stables in the
same manner might "hip" a horse or
"stifle " a cow or ox. It is not necessary

of wheat is estimated at 70.8 cents per
bushel, ranging from $1 In Maine to 53
cents in Nebraska, against 64. S oents in
18M. 68.7 cents in 1880, and 68.1 cent In
1837. A large cotton crop has been har

a8 cents per pound in Virginia to 8,7 in
Louisiana. Oats are lower than ever be

In Kansas and Nebraska, the estimated
