â- â- Pff AGRICULTURAL CUTTING AND GRINDING FEED. We Kriad feed anil cut graia for dif- ferent, reasiona. We grind the p-ain in order tlial animals partakLng of it may more fully nssimilatR what (.hey have eaten. We aim to a^sial nature; to fore- stall some of Iwr firsi. operations and render what has lie.eu eaten more readily digested. We db not aim to make atoek eat more,, hut to make a better use of what ha.s heen eaten. We crack the ahell of the nut that they may oblain tlie kernel with greater ease. Our object in cuttiag feed, howeve.r. is somewhaL different, says a writer in Ohio Farmer. Our primary design is to render w-Joat we offer our atoi^k more palatable, more tempting to the appe- tite ; we (want them to eat more of it and to eat it cleaner, as vve say, than they wouud. if fed in its natural state. We do not. olaim that the mere aeit of cutting feed into short lengths or tear- ing it up adds any partiouJar vaJue to ita feeding qua.'it.y any more than it en- ables stock to eat more of it, and from a given weight of roug-h feed leas will be rejected than if ted wthole. There- fore we think Uua \a a safe rule to guide u.s: Cut onJy such feed as stock will waste when fed whole ; what ia TMidily eaten as it grew, let alone. We are after dollars and not extra lab- or. So also use judgment when to cut. A feed whiish is rendereil more valu- able by cutting at one time may not need to be put throogli the cutter to obtain equally as (food results at an- other. Take, for instance, cnm stover, ao calUed. or busked stalks of com. As a general rule stock will eat them rau<:h nuffe readilly and with! less wa«te wben cut 00" shredded than when fed whol«. But there are exceptions. In steadilfy cold weather corn-stalks will lie eaten whole by housed stock aa clean as if pa!:8ed through a cutter ; more ea- pecialUy if fed when a little damp. At this point comes another thing to be taken into oansideration â€" what atock we are feeding. Horses, for in- stance, ahtai'Jd have ournstalks cut at alil timea, to get the best results; but from our experience wc know that it is not always necessary for matured cattle. Youttg cattle, however, should always have their stal'ks out, to avoid great w,iHte. Another point to be observed Ls this: Do not feed too much at a time ; only give what will be eaten, whether of cut or uncut roughage. Cat- tle, like person*, baoome daiuiy, and soon liearn to pick for the he.st and let the balance go. i>tock are creatures of haljit as welil as man. We do not take enAilage into consideration in this paper. It is a great thing, but com- paratively a novelty and uniLsed among ihe generality of farmers; so grant- ins ihiit it ii par exce-l.lenee the prcyer way to put up roughage, we vonUne our remarkii to ordinary fodder, straw, etc., in a dry state. Let a farmer lia.ve a good feed grinder with power atiii<-h- ment, coasting from 915 to 9&0. with a good cutting box, and he virL:il \io in- dependent of the mi'iler and the steam engine. If posstltle, have them in the barn where the fee^l is to be used. A spa;.* twenty-five feet square wh'A be amplv. Enough fodder can be cut in a couple of hours, w-itjh but little help, to last thirty to forty head of cattle fully two weeks. It will heat just •nou.gh to break the woody fiber, ren- dering the feed soft and palatable ; if aiflted a little while, cutting it adds to Its appettzlng quaiitimt. Unless hay is very dusty or mu.»ty, it La doubtfol if it pay,ii to cut it ; even then It is a dubious feed, although cutting and wetlin^ it wijl make it at leas:t less harmful. Sometinwvs, however, it dte-s Weill to mix dampened cut hiiy with ground feed, making it more bulky and porous thus assist iog digestion. Bveii then straw or fodder would luive ans- wered the same purpoise and saved the BXpenav of cutting the t^y. In grind- ing feud we should aim to grind corn, corn and cob, or corn and oats as fine CS'Olir mill will allow without too much lessening its capacity. For oats alone, barley, or even rye. we do not tliijik it neLv.isary to ffrind .so fine. On the Pacific Mope these grains are only roll- ed for horses and not ground, as the juices at the stomach wiill perfectly act upon them in that state, urouud corn and col), or ground corn, fed alone U, a poor feed ; both' should be lial- anc«d up with something lighter, as ground oats or 'bran. In fact, all ground feeds should be fed in combina- tions to get the best results. Farmers should use judgment when to grind as weill as when to cut. Often- times he can seill his whole grain as oats and corn, buying bran and middl- ittsfs or oil meal at a profit,, besides «avin£ the !al>or of grinding. Ground feed and cut rouighage go together, as the tree and its bark. Ihe proper way to get best resulU from their feeding is to feed together. Have a long, nar- row box, put in the amoiiui of cut fod- der to be fed, throw on enouljjfh water to dampen, slir thoroughly with a six- tine fork, pllace on top of this the pro- per amount of groand feed, mix again with the fork, and feed. It in well to add a little sail al .i>. Or else plai-e the out fodder in ttts manger with the feed ou tup, and laiile \vill mix for themsttlves. In conolusion we will <^ay that our apparatus has heen a grinder and power and a outter tor several years. Our bill I for repairs has been very small. We cau grind 100 bushels of feed in a day, or with a tw»lve-year- oild boy to sit on the sweep, and drive the team, a ten- year- Old to tramp down the cut fodder, a sixteen-year-old to keep bundles on the table, a five-year-old to be general sup- erintendent, with myself to do the feed- ing, wo have in less th^n two hours cut Into three-fourths inch lengths enough cornatalks to last thirty head of cattle an(l four head of horses nineteen days, feeding all I hey needed, and at the end OJ this time the feed loft in the man^rer oould be gathered in a bushel basket. We use a twenty-two-inch pulley on tumhllikt; rod and an eight-inch on cut- Ung-box, tumbling rod making about 180 revolutions per uxinute, thus getting about 5(X) revoliitions per naioule on outling-box. We ooulid easily drive a outtiuig-boat with fourteen to sixtaeu- inch kni^"*i, wUh the power. Our box h«s four eieven-Lach knave*. We have ground corn, ctirn and cob, oats, wheat, .•icreenings, and flaxseed with our mill vwy suoceasfuJy, and doubtless most of the combined mills and power .i adver- tised will do as good work as ours does. HOB&E TALK. When it is couoidered that all the organs of the body contain, in health, the elements of which salt is com- posed, it wild iye understood that salt is a very necessary adjunct of the food of farm live stoc-Jc. Horses, cattle, she»p, etc., alil require a limited amount of this minerali There are decided ob- jections to the practice of mixing the alilowance of salt with the food, thus forcin the animal to consume it or leave the food with which it has been incor- porated. Detter by far to put a Lump of rock salt within ea.<iy access of stock; thus it can be taken or parsed by at the taste and option of each indi- viduaL. C The hoarse gets ao green grass now, so give him an occasional mess of boiled turnips, potatoes or carrots ; this will serve to keep the boweDs open and ao- tive, as welil as to promote general health and thrift. What a reliable indication of the general: oondition of a horse is the state of the bsiir. Ri.ugh, staring hair means poor digestion, poor aasimilation, and con3e.iuentl} poor nutrition. The skin is in intimate sympathy with the di- gestive organs. Hence by mere casual observation of the extamal... one may justly estimate the ooadition of the internal organs. IX) not allow a horse's coat to appear untidy and dirty. Use the curry-comb and brush freely and thoroughT.y, aod keep the animal blank- eted lx>th in the stable and out. This blanketing not only keeips the horse wsrin aao thereliy saves oats and corn, but it saves any quantity of work in the operation of grooming. Sureily a good blanket is a very profitable in- vestment. Feed Jiberally on good, sound oats and cracked corn and plenty of properly-oured, early cut hay. There are two thiags that every colt should learn and every horse know, viz., to stand perfectly still when 30 desired, and to walk a good pace when not trot- tlni;. How annoying and irritating it is to have a hi;r;je move a little, to "inch alcNag" as we call it, when the pro^r tiling is to make a dead stand. It IS hard and well ni^^h impotsible to teach an old horse new bauits ; but thanks to nature, the collt is very im- pressible and there is> uo excuse fur not teaching the latter perfect obedience to the word "whoo" or "stand." Then what an advantage it is to have ^ a horse a good walker. Many a car- riage horse will iiioiv a lively, pro- gressive trot, but when drawn down to a walk he will scarcely move at all. With draught horses and farm horses, required to draw Heavy loads, no great- er speed than a respectable walk can well be. demanded. How import- ant it is then that the walik should show a reasonable rate of advancement. Breeding and training Itoth wild have large influence upon the walk of an anlmali. Brei.d from a race of good walk- ers, that lake long, sweeping steps, and furthermore, educate the colt. In the .same Line. Fix a i^uick walking habit whi!!« that is possible. Every horse shoujld be able to wulk naturally at least four miles per huur. Forsooth, I he farmers of this counlry want rapid- walking horses rather than swijft trot- ters. HIS FARE. Mr. rarbe*' Rxperlence Wllh a Wvsrn «'hIi Driver. Archibald Forbes, the famous war correspondent, once told an amiLsitig story connected with a lecture which be delivered at West Chester, L'ennsyl- vania. On arriving at the st.ition in that place a negro hackm:in pressed for- ward, and ottered hi.s .services to take the lecturer to the hotel. On arriving at his destination, Mr. Forbes asked the harkman what his fare was. "Well, sahi," replied the negro, with a comprehensive grin, " if you'd jess gib me a ticket to de lecture, sah, dat's all I ask, and I'd be rilghft glad to get it." " Why, certainly," replied Mr. Forties, feelinjg that here, indeed, was an unex- pected tribute; ' I'll give you one; and haven't you a missis (" " Yes, sah," was the prt)mpt reply, " I's got a missis." "Well, you shall have one for her, too." said the lecturer, who forthwith requested his ogeut (o hand the man the tickets. That evening he looked about tie hall for his coloreil admirer, but saw nothing of himr The nevr morning, on ordering a hack to go to the station, lie discovered that the ve.- bicle wa^ driven by the same man. " 1 didnr't .see yi>u a.i ihe. lecture la.st nighl," said Mr. Forbes. "No, sah," reiilied the daiky, frank- ly, " I was not dar." "But I gave you tickets for your.self and your wife," said Mr. Forbes in na- tural astonishment. " Ye.s, sah." leiurned the hackman. with one, of his broadest smiles, " but you see me and me missis don't know- much about lectureti, sah, and we thought we'd rather hab do cash; so I done sold dem tickets for a dollar, snh I" FLORAL ADVERTISEMENT.

WITH MILITART HONORS. A woman known to have passed her 112 birthday recently died near Doual, France. Her name was Josephine Ros- tkowski, her maiden name having been Mazurkiewicz, and she was bom at Warsaw on March 19, 1784. She had been married to a Captain of a Polish regiment, and with him took part in a great number of battles of the Napo- leonic wars, during one of which the regiment, on the roll of which she was carried as assistant surgeon, heavily outnumbered by the foe, was almost wiped out of existence. She was her- self wounded several times during; her arduous duties, but she remained in the hospital service of the French army un- til after the Crimean war, taking an active part, also, in that campaign. She left the service when 71 years old, and was retired with full pay. She had had fifteen children, twelve boys and three girls, all bom in Poland, and all of them dead now. For her valiant service in the army shii had befn deooraied with the military cross of Stanislaus, the Turkish Order of the Medjidie and the Crimean war medal. Mme. Rostkow- aki w.is given a military funeral, which was attended by many bi^h military officers. i A WISE METHOD. Mrs. Walikerâ€" I d'.\n't see why the doc- tors ali recommend Incycle ridinir.

It so often happens that at this clim- acteric women relapse into a stage of chronic invalidism and the actual dan- ^r to life wtech attends the change 18 so great that a medicine which can be relied upon to carry thiB system over this dangeroLJi time, is nothing less than a lile-saving invention. What Dr. Williams' Pink Pills will do for women at this change, of life is shown in a case reported in the. Dewabury (Eng.) Chronicle. It is that of Mrs. Benjam.- in Smith, who lives at Hanover street. Dewsbury. "The change of life had left her weak and miserable, with constant pains, dizziness and shortness of breath on the slightest exertion, together with chronic rheumatism in the head and eyes. The pain in her head was too acute for words. She Igot uo sleep eith- er by day or nigrht, and her agony was at times so treat thtut it took two peo- ple to hold her in bed. A skilful doc- tor was called in l)ut no gf)od. " Myi cheeks would swell up as br^ as sauc- oers," said Mrs. .Smith!, " my eyes were as red as fire and there was no getting rid of the pains in the head. I suffer- ed also from a slti^jfgish liv»r and weak heart, and at times my eyesight whs so had fh.Tt objcrts before me sej^med but dim shadows, and there was none of my friends wh<i looked tor restor- ation to health. I .saw an ai-count in a newspaper of a cure similar to mine through the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and my h\isband urged me to try thftm. Before two boxes were used the pains be^n to disappear as if l)y ma- gic, and thto r mtiniied use of the pills for a little more than a mcmth has left me enjoying as good health aa ever I had in my life. I consider Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills a blessing, and as I know there are thousands ot women who suffer in silence from troubles hav- irnt 'he same oripin an mine, I am grateful enough for what they have done tor me to tell my sto'-y in the hope that some suffering sister may be .similarly helped, .ind you have full per- mission to publish' what I have told you, which statements can be verified by any of my neighlwrs." moatha, htiit. flowlo^ Me iii aad all 'tliis ultlll of th«l (InnturB wtto ttflttlild to sfo9 it, t went h<mo and atUf stlit itul' tet'mg tor three of four miinuhs, I de- termined to go to the hospital CtgaUu but fortunately for me an old lad/ on the cars, who noticed my emaciateU and worn coniTition a.^.ied "what alls you, my child?" I told her my trouble and she replied, "B.»fore going to tha hospital again give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a fair trial, I know they will help, you." I followed her advice, and afte*. taking four boxes the flowing abaolutO" ly stopped. I took ths pills for soma time longer and my health was fully restored, and since then I have heeit both strong and active. I believe Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are a blessing to women." Mrs. Frank Murray, who resides near Ogdensburg, N.Y., says, " I aju 40 years of a^ and for mnny years resided near Presoott, Ont. • We moved over here sometinie ivgo and have work- ed this farm since.

The result was that theyl brought me safeily through this criticall period, and I am again enjoying perfect health, and take pleasure in re- commending Pink Pills to those similar- ly situated. Rev.
