cows aoma dbv too donu
T ho time a cow goes dry is tho time
when ebo is costing her expense of
keeping and making no return. It is
with many cows worse than this, for
the cow that is not milked fattens and
is more likely to suffer during parturi¬
tion than the milk cow which keeps in
moderate flesh. A worse result follows,
as the cow aliowod once to go dry too
long gets in the habit of drying off at
the same period of gestation, and is
thus made less valuable as a milker all
her life. If the cow is well fed
she may bo milked with advantage
1 tip to a month beloro the time to drop
her calf. This is better than to stop
milking two or three months earlier
and feed less liberally, so as to prevent
an excess of fat.
SCIENTIFIC PIG FEEDING.
Scientific pig feeding has been un¬
dertaken at the Vermont Experiment
Station. It was found that sixty-two
per cent, of the market value of the
food was got back in tho value of tho
manure, when tho latter was properly
handled. Tho cost of food for a pound
of increaso iu live weight ami tho
profits wore slightly in favor of tho
loss wutery ration, but the shrinkage
at slaughter was the same in these
pigs as in those fed on a dryer ration.
Buttermilk had about four-fifths the
feeding value of skim milk. Poland
Chinas and Berkshires gavo tho same
results, but in another test Berkshires
outstripped Yorkshires. Iu most cases
it costs more to keep pigs after a cer¬
tain ago than their gain in woight is
worth. At the Danish station at Pros
kau, feeding corn meal was followed
by good results in every case. Corn
meal may bo fed to pigs under four
months old with do bad results, pro¬
vided tho amount fed be not too great
at first, but gradually increased, and
the whole ration not too rich. The an¬
imals fed uncooked corn meal made a
slightly larger gain than those fed
cooked meal. \Vhoy gave good re¬
sults.—Now England Homestead.
aitOWINO GRAIN TO PEED DOWN,
Eastern farmers when they grow
graiu always adopt tho method o!
harvesting rather than allow hogs and
other stock to turn iu and feed it down.
This last in 1 ho West used always to
bo done with corn, wasting thereby
some graiu and losing altogether or
nearly so the value of tho corn stalks.
Thin is now generally reoognized as
being too wasteful of valuable feed to
be profitable. But some Western
farmers think that growing rye to feed
down is loss wasteful than is corn for
the same purpose. The rye straw ns
feed is undoubtedly not so valuable
as the corn stalks, and whore there is
no market for the rye straw the grain
crop may be grown for tho purpose of
trampling It down bv hogs mid pigs.
A correspondent of the Prairie Farmer
writes that he has found rye thus fed
especially valuable for sows with young
pigs. Tho littlo pigs pick up tho rye
grains scattered by tho old sow as she
ortinohos the ryo heads. It is an ex¬
cellent early feed, the rye coming to
head before tho Indian corn is any¬
where near earing, and at a time when
old corn in many farmers’ cribs is
exhausted, Besides, the ryo is pound
or pound worth more for growing
animals than is the Indian corn, as rye
ranks next to wheat in nitrogenous
food nutrition.—Boston Cultivator.
FOODS FOB rOULTItY,
Tho natural food of fowls is com¬
posed of foods, insects nud grass. In
tho domestic condition wo allow grain,
grass and meat. Turkeys aud chickens
drink very littlo water when feeding,
and even ducks aud geeso resort to
water when feeding sometimes, in or
dtr to wash their bills rnoro than to
drink, says tho Poultry Keeper.
This brings up the question of tho
propriety of feeding soft food. It is
known that ground grain absorbs a
largo volume of water, and when the
mixture is apparently dry, quite a
large proportion of water exists in it,
though more so when tho mixture is
very moist and sloppy. It is uot bene¬
ficial water, as the results uro some¬
times iujur ou», bowel disenso aud in
digest iou prevailing.
It is better to feed all food dry, if
possible, nud keep a trough full of
water where tho fowls can take what
quantity they desire. Even ground
tood may bo given in a ary condition,
tho different substances used being
thoroughly mixed aud placed in a
trough. When chicks aro fed they
have comment moistened several times
a day and bowel disease simply be¬
cause too much water is forced upon
them in the food. The fowls never
resort to wet food when they can get
dry kinds, and this is a matter that de¬
serves altcutiou.
What Big Snakes Eat.
The learned professor of tho Paris
Museum of Natural History, Leon Vil
| 1 liant, describes the diet of a serpent
l J more than twenty feet long, which has
| been on exhibition at the Jardiu des
PJantes since the month of August,
i 1S85. Up to the end of 1895 this
tile had rep¬
cumber eaten fifty time. The that°the largest
of times in one year
snake took food was in 1888, when he
ate seven times.
N arly always tho food consisted
of the flesh of goats, old or
young. 1 bree times, however, the
repast was composed of rabbits and
once of a goose. The feeding of the
serpent, which wiil eat nothing bat
whaA is a,ive, offers an uncommon
spectacle, and many persons request
to have notice of the times when tho
creature feeds, so as to witness the
feeding. Yet the lightaiug-iike rapid¬
ity with which the reptile seises its
prey produces a powerful impression.
HOUSEHOLD MATTERS,
, —-- j
HOME-MADE MUCILAGE.
A very convenient mucilage can he
made of onion juice by any one who
wishes to use it. A good-sized Span¬
ish onion, after being boiled for a
short time, will yield, on being
pressed, a large quantity of very ad¬
hesive fluid. This is need extensively
in various trades for pasting paper on
to tin or zinc, or even glass, and the
tenaoity with which it holds would
surprise any one making the first at¬
tempt.
SAVE THE EGG SHELLS.
An egg shell should never be thrown
away in a family that likes coffee.
Wash and wipe the egg before it is
broken to use, and put the egg shells
Ihem in a covered glare jar. A couple of
thrown into the bottom of tho
coffee pot will settle tho coffee ns
well as anything known. This is one
of the economies practiced in houses
where several servants are employed
and there is a housekeeper to watch
the small leaks in expense accounts.
SODA FOB SWEETENING.
When cooking fruit for pics, turn¬
overs, etc., it is well toremember that
sugar does not counteract acidity; it
simply disguises it. A very small
pinch of carbonate of soda sprinkled
over the fruit before cooking will save
sugar, and render the dish more
palatable and wholesome. The whites
of eggs intended for cake making
should never he allowed to stand dar¬
ing the beating process even for a
moment, as they return to a liquid
state, and enn not be restored, thus
making the cake heavy.
ADVISABLE SELFISHNESS.
It in too bad that eo many women
give over to the occasional guest the
sunniest, brightest room in tho house
and reserve for themsoivos and fami¬
lies little, dark, cramped living rooms.
Let tha guest who remains but a few
days, or at least calls but seldom, sit
in the semi-gloom or Bleep in tho dull¬
er room, but, for you, take for tho
living room the one that the sunshine
kisses half tho day or longer. It is
I ho workshop where you spend more
than half your life, where brain aud
body aro built up nnd remodeled, and
it is simple justice to yourself and
yours that it be comfortable and
cheery.

tiny basket containing a needle or two,
black and white thread, a thimble and
some down wrapping twine. saved Many a trip
stairs or up is by those
little contrivances. To mend a rip in
one’s dress, sew a button on baby’s
boot, sew on the just ripped binding,

The Afternoon Sap.
The frequency with which medical
men are asked whether it is harmful to
indulge in the “afternoon nap” is not,
perhaps, surprising, for several rea¬
sons. Most persons have had experi¬
ence in the seducive charms of the
somnolence which has followed the
comfortable ingestion of a midday or
diner evening meal. Tho meal tiuished,' the
arranges himself comfortably in
an armchair, takes up a newspaper
and prepares to make tho most of the
restful conditions of his mind and
body. But nature soon begins to ns
eort her sway. In time, the eyelids
olo*e, the head be ins to nod, tho
newspaper falls from the bauds and
the symptoms of a nap are complete.
IVhether the “winks” be forty or one
hundred iu number, the result is tho
same—a short, sound sleep. Then
comes the question, Is it harmful thus
to fall asleep after a meal? By no
means, for the very obvious reason
that the process is merely a physiolog¬
ical one, and as such, when it occurs,
is quite natural. When digestion is
in progress, nature has arranged that
all tho available blood in the body
shall be collected in and about the
digestive organs. Consequently, the
blood supply to the brain fails to a
low ebb, and thus sleep is easily in¬
duced. On the other hand, of course,
physiologically, it is wrong for brain
work to be at erupted immediately
after a solid meal.—Medical Press.

HOW TO FIND OUT.
Fill a bottle or common water glass with
urine aud let it stand twenty-four hours; a
sediment or settling Indicates a diseased con¬
dition of the kidneys. When urine stains
linen it is positive evidence of kidney trouble.
Too frequent desire to urinate or pain in the
back is also convincing proof that the kid¬
neys and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO BO.
There is comfort in the knowledge so often
expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Koot,
the great kidney remedy, fulfills every wish
in relieving pain in the baek, kidneys, liver,
bladder and every part of the urinary pas¬
sages. It corrects inability to hold urine
and scalding pain in parsing it, or bad effects
following use of liquor, wine or beer, and
overcomes that unpleasant necosslty of being
compelled to get up many times during the
night to urinate. The mild and the extraor¬
dinary offeet of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
It stands the highest for its wonderful cures
of the most distressing cases. Sold by drug¬
gists, price fifty cents and one dollar. For

Light Converted Into Sound.
One of the marvels of modern science,
observes Popular Science News, is the
conversion of a beam of light into
sound. The light ray is thrown through
a lens on a glass vessel containing
lampblack, colored silk, worsted or
other substance, A disk having slits
or openings cut in it is made to re¬
volve swiftly in the beam of light so as
to cut it up, making alternate flashes
of light and shadow. On putting the
oar to the glass vessel strange sounds
are heard so long as the flashing beam
is falling upon it. Another phase of
this remarkable discovery is still more
interesting. A beam of sunlight is
passed through the prism. The
disk is turned and the colored
light of the solar spectrum is made
to break through it. If the ear
ii placed to the vessel containing
the silk, wool or other material, as the
colored lights fall upon it sounds will
be given by differen parts of the spec¬
trum and there will he silence in some
other parts. If the vessel contains
red worsted and the green light flashes
upon it loud Sounds will he heard.
Only feeble sounds will be heard if
the red nnd blue rays fall upon it, and
other colors make no sound at all,
Green silk gives sound best in red
light. It is by no means improbable
that this discovery foreshadows a new
law of harmonics, and Remington’s
experiments in tone color may possi¬
bly, by this new application of sight
a xil sound, result in some practical
theory which will give us an entirely
new scheme of music. The thing is
hut in its infancy, but the mere fact
that such » discovery has been made
cannot but forecast important results.
Household Hints,

discolorations:
Wooden and ware, molding-boards, such as chopping
trays should
never be dried by the fire, ns, if ex¬

the house,
A scorch mark, if not too heavy,
may be removed by moistening with,
water and laying in the sun. Repeat
thy moistening two or three times,
and the mark will disappear,
In putting away your preserves for
