The Maine Farmer says: One of our substan- tial subscribers—in a recent conversation—gave his experience in traiping neat stock affected with habit of eating wood, chewing bones, etc. His cattle were one spring affected in this wa: they became thin in flesh, refusing to eat ha’ and presenting a sickly a) ‘ance. Hehadan impression that their f{& lacked the constita- ents for making bone, but his neighbors used bone mea! without noticing any good results whatever. Last spring be put about four Dushels of leached ashes in his barnyard, and threw out to them about a shovelful each day. They al! ate as it with evident relish. After turning them out to pasture he pnt one peck of dry ashes i week on the ground in the pasture. They ate it all up, and gnawed off the Len where it had been lying. The cattle be; improve, gaining flesh and looking better coed they had for several years. He says this morbid. —— was unnoticed years ago, from the fact at the land was new ‘snd ashy from the burn ings of the woods, and the land clearings. He has another proof of the value of ashes for stock from this incident. He had a large tub full of leached ashes which remained in it some time. It was afterwards used as a watering tub; actu- all — out pieces and eating them. Lat- = ives one quart of ashes mixed with teeta quantity of salt, to twelve head of cattle, about once a week, and finds it to agree with them wonderfully. —____iii___. MUSIC, &e. GREAT OFFER.
