Corn Or Oats For Horses.
The comparative value of corn and
oata for horses may he briefly stated
as follows: The former Is deficient
in many of the elements of nutrition
no necessary for recuperating the con¬
stant wear and tear which necessari¬
ly takes place in the body of a liv¬
ing animal. On this account horses
which are exclusively fed <>n corn
hay do not r iceive that kind of nour¬
ishment winch appears necessary for
the due support and maintenance of
the animal fabric. Hence, We must
not be surprised that corn-fed horses
show evidence of being languid by
sweating profusely while being work¬
ed, lack of etc. Outs, on
the contrary, contain more of the es**
aentiul elements of nutrition than
any other article of food which can
be fed with impunity to horses.
Oats are not only the most natural
food for horses, but are deeidcdlv the
most nutritious. They are tlte
cheapest, because there is less risk
in feeding them, and experience has
proved that horses properly fed on
limothy hay and oats can, with reg¬
ular exercise, good grooming and
proper sanitary regulations, be
brought to the highest state of phys¬
ical culture, and can perform more
work with less evidence of fatigue
than when led on any other arpele of
food.
Farm and Stock Nptes.
In small runs or inclosures fowls
do not like to scratch. There they
stand, moping dull and inactive,
knowing full well Hint it is no use to
expend force in scratching in the
hard soil, fetid with their own excre¬
ment, which contaminates every mor¬
sel ot food given them and in which
a worm or bug has not been seen for
months, and are thus deprived of the
most natural food which they iise.
and would do them much good if
bad a chance to roam at will
and search for these precious morsels
At their leisure. (Jut ot doors rectos
tion serves a double purpose ; the

enough of pure air and exercise to
