WILL IT PAY 1o &rAM ? ob3D?-Tak
ing the word fodder I its broadest sense,
as any kind of food for gramniverous ani
mals, we may bay that it will always pay
to steam or cook feed for swine, and often
for cows in stables contaimng 25 head or
more, while for sheep and. horses It will be
of doubtful expediency, and usually not
advisable under any circumstances. The
cooking of feed for fattening swine is Im
portaut as a matter of economy, that it
will pay, even though done with little re
gard to the saving of labor and fuel. On
the other hand, to cook the feed for neat
cattle with profit, not only should there be
animals enough to make it pay,but the ra
tions should be so carefully planned, that
thti by mingling of- palatable, with less
relished and coarse fodder, a saving may
he effected in that way. Besidea tue ob
ject for which the cattle are kept is an im
portant factor to be considered in the feed
The flow of milk is increased by steam
ing the fodder-the color of the butter Is,
however, lvjured. The same ration will
prove more fattening, while, at the same
thne: there will be little or no waste, if the
steaming is well managed. It is best to
have the steamed ration composed of a
Yaiiety of food, such as corn fodder, roots,
hay, or oat straw, with bran and corn
meal, or cotton seed, or linseed cake, or
meat. The substitution of one kind of
fodder or meal for another, gives varioty
a'id relish. The coarse fodder is cooked
soft, and the flavor of the roots and of the
meal pervades th mass, It is not likely
that any of the small agricultural dteamers
can be made to economically cook the food
for as many as 20 or 30 head of cattle.
When a boIler of several horse power is
employed to do other work, as pumping,
thrashing, sawing wood, grinding, cutting
hay, and corn fodder, etc., steai may be
economically used for cooking fodder. Of
this there can be little doubt. The steam
box in which the fodder is placed fol
cook tg, if it is big enough, need not be
tilled ottener than twice a week, and if. as
already intimated, every pains is taken in
the operation to save in the items of labor
and luel, steaming fodder for cattle will
be profitable.
UnOwINo YoUNg 6TOK.-The mot
appr-priate food for all kinds of young
stock is'the mother's milk, and so soon as
the young things can be induced to cal,
other feed, grass, etc., they should be sup
plied with giound feed, shelled corn, hay,
grass and any other such feed, which being
fed with the dani's milk, makes the most
satisfactory growth. The milk materially
aids digestion, and thus it is thiAt the lar
ger quantity of food Is consumed, which,
with the milk, niakes the itnest possible
growth of flesh, hone and muscle. It was
this milk and shelled corn that made the
famous big stker In Alissouri out of the
scrub calf, and bad that calf been a good
high grade still better results would have
been obtained with the milk feed and care
of that calf. Guod blootd is iiportaut, for
the Ihest restults. Never use any other than
full-bloot sires shoult be the motto of
(every farmer. Then, with good stock,tLc
,1udicious care and treatment from the very
tinat wtek of birth will bring satisfactory
results in dollars and cents.
The young farnier and stock raiser will
tind that successful treatment of young
animals to secure health, thrift aind vigor
Is the art that can hardly be too diligently
investigated. The money value of stock,
or the prout in raismng stock, depends on
knowinir how to dlo it eennmucally. Eco
nomy does not consist in Cecap food. b)ut
in such as the animal, whatever its kind;
will readily assinitlate, an.l will give the
best returns in desirable growth, If the
food is not right, no excess of quantity will
miake up for its deficier~cy in quality. Wa
ter is indispensble and shouild be pure;
impurtiie and1( stagna~nt water ought n~ot to be
tolerated. Th'le first few mnonths of an
animal's life are the most important periodI
in its existence 1o its owner. 11 it is ne
glected and stunted, no subsequent treat
ment, can make good the injury done ex
cept at a cost that i epiresents no itcomsider
able extra sacritlce of tie,care and money.
To get early lambs the rams should be
plIacet with ewe (luring the month of .No
veimber. Where only one rain is used lhe
should be taken out of the flock every
evening and given a goodl grain feed of say
a pmit of oats andi corn miixedi, and put in
a dry,comfortablc place by himself for the
night andi have another feed of grain before
be0 ng put with the ilockL next morning. If
two rains arc used they can be put into
the flock alternate days, g'ving cachi one a
rest every alternate day. Where irt is in
convenient to take the ram out of the flock
he should be fed arral in a little box in
the pasture, thme attendant coaxing himi up
to his fetd until lie understands what he
is to expect, and then staying with him

llA wxa andl owls prey upon rat s, mice
and other small animals, thereby keeping
them in check; while the crow prefers
grubs, cutworms and carrion to any kind
of food, and while they may occasionally
rob a bird's nest or pull up a little cor'n,
they do a thousand acts of kindness to the
farmer for every one that is injurious.
So says the SUN, andl there is a great deal

PEAon trees shouild have a mulch

In the spring peach tirees should be well
cultivated, and during the summer they
should be cultivated nearly the same as
corn. WVith goodt treatment theO trees will
live to dtouble the oge of those neglected.
Mineral fertilizers show good results when
ajppliedl to them.
risTiR is at present, in a fence on the
farm of Mr. D~avid Riutt, in West Donegal
township, a locust, post that hias the dat'e

a very old man, discovered the post, when
lie was a smell bay. It is well preserved,
coins:dering that it is over a century old.
FAuMunsa generally lay out too mutch
work for the hieh> they eumploy. Tne best
rule is not to attempt the cuiltivationi of
large areas, but to make the land produice
the largest yields. If one acre of ground
can be made to1 prodluce fIfty butshels of
wheaut, that is far better than to atppropri
ate tuwo or three or lour' acres in the pro
duct iou of the samne quantities.

* OixUNInAn embroidery on thin mushn
is readily imitated at home by the use
of pearl and irridescent beads and vel.
vet and plush leaves. The raised ap.
pearance of flowers, whether they are
in beads or in embroidery i ained by
padding. Cotton wool is irst sown
very firmly upon the outlined design,
and then the beads are threaded in the
numbers necessary and laid over the
padding, always being placed in one di
restion. Generally, in reproducing a
flower in beads the center will be a
pearl or cluster of smoller beads to rep.
resent the raised center of the natural
flower. Drawn work is rapidly becom
ing inore and more fashionable. It is
trying to the eyes but so fascinating
that ambitious workers are always elab
orating designs in it. It consists of
drawing out the threads of fine linen
filling in the spaces thus obtained by
stitches of every variety. Recently,
decoration for towels and napkins has
taken this form : The threads are
drawn out at regular intervals, and then
a design is worked in the interstioe ia
colored threads, either in herring-bone,
button-hole or chain stitch, or by simply
overcasting. The most fascinating ba
by blankets are made now in file Sax
ougr fiannol, embroidered in raised des
igns of flowers and birds. The angels'
heads which were so fashionable last
year are scarcely seen ; they are re
placed by a double bordering of deli.
cately tinted blossoms, one end beiug
folded over and worked in such a way
that it can be placed outside the cover
let. The latest style of all adds a mono
gram in the center. Gold embroidery
can never be satisfactoily carried out
upon the material to be decorated. The
best and safest way is to work the des
ign upon linen or crash and then cut- it
out and applique it on the surface upon
which it is required.
OnEANING CAnPETs.-In all our own
experiments we have found nothing so
saie and soi'viceable as bran slightly
moistened, only very shghtly, just suffi
cieunt to hold the particles together,
In this case it is not necessary to stop
and clean the broom every few minutes.
Sweeping the carpet after the bran hfas
leen sprinkled over it not only cleus
the carpet and gathers all the dirt into
the bran, but keeps the broom clean at
tne same time, It too much dampened,
aside from injuring the carpet, it makes
the work harder, because the bran be
comes very heavy it very damp. The
bran should be sifted evenly 9vor the
floor, and then the room swept as usual,
The bran scours and cleanses the whole
fabric, very little dust is made while
sweeping with it, and scarcely any sat
ties on furniture, pictures, etc., after
the work is accomplished, becauso every
particle of dirt, threadt, bits of paper, or
lint is gathered up into the mass of bran
that is being moved over the floor, and
so thoroughly incorporated with it that
it will not be easily separated. Uarpets
swept in this way retain very little dust
ns will be plainly demonstrated when
ever they are taken up to be shaken.
HE&D CirEsE.--Clean the legs nicely
and boil by tuenselves, so that when
done there wdll be plenty of the liquor.
Boil the upper head, minus ears, eyes
and nose, with considerable lean meat,
tenderloin is best, and when done re
tuove bones and skun from head and legs;
ehop the len; salt and pepper to suit
taste; add the liquor the logs were boil

it can be cut out in slices.

.TOAST.-To priepare toast suitable for
mnvalids, cut sitale bread mn slices half
an inch thick, and tiinn on' the crust;
then hold it t ar enough away from the
fire to dry it before browning it; It
should bs of a delhcate brown color and
quite dry in the middle of the slice; in
tnis condition it is more easily digested
than when made so quicukly that the
moisture of the bread remains in it.
GEnMAN PUFFH.--Balf prnit milk, five
eggs, twvo large spoons or iour, two
ounces butter; bake in small tins or cups;

A COOLNEss has arisen between Kosoi

of the most fashionable ladies of Austin.
There was a lawn Party a6 the Eufnagel
mansion. Mrs Hufnael showed Mr.
Murphy over the grounds, and asked
him what he thought of their arrange
ment. "I ain delighted, madam," was
the reply. "Wherever I look I see'the
footprints of your genius." As Mrs.
Hufnagel has a foot almost as big as a
wheelbarrow, she supposed there was
something personal in the remark., She
did not hint exactly that she was not
glad to have him stay for supper, but
she opened the gate and pointed into
the street, and Murpky, who is very
sensitive, strolled away.
