A few years ago we did not grow enough straw on the farm properly to bed all the animals. But by utilizing what we had and adding to’our sup- ply from other farms, we have been able to increase our supply; and with the increased supply we have learned how to use it to a much better ad- vantage, and much more of it, writes a correspondent of Country Gentleman. First, we aim to cover the feed-lots with a quantity sufficient to prevent all it from the open floor. They seemed to mud, and then keep the horses and cows clean by a liberal use of it. Whenever the feed lots begin to get filthy, fresh straw is scattered over them. A few years ago. on account of the inclement weather and the lack of shelter, we found it necessary to lot our feeding hogs about the straw stack. ered about the worst thing a farmer can do. Yet we found it enormously better than no shelter, and feeding in the mud. We scattered the ear corn over fresh straw, and let the hogs eat By the mass of farmers this is consid- enjoy rooting in the straw for the grain, and their noses always looked clean, and not as they would had they been allowed to root in the mud for their corn. To make this kind of feed- ing safe and healthful, we were care- ful to keep fresh straw over the feed- ing place, and to pull out fresh, clean straw from the sides of the rick for bedding. Soon’ we had shelter room for the hogs under the sides of the rick. Now, if our hogs are fed in a lot, we make it a point to keep the lot clean with straw. In many instances the gravel walks about the barng can be kept clean dur- ing soft weather, and made more dura- ble, if straw is spread over them in lib- eral quantities and removed when it becomés filthy, and a new supply used. This calls for a little work, but it Health and Beauty.” This book | ™eans less wading in the mud, and more comfort to the farmer and the animals. Temporary sheds are nearly always needed on the farm. These can well and cheaply be covered with straw. The usual fault is, when a farmer starts out to put a straw cover on a shed, he does not use enough straw; not because it is scarce, but be- cause he has not realized the difference between a poor and a good straw roof. At present we have a temporary root- house covered with straw, and a straw- covered addition to the barn shed for our sheep. They answer the purpose excellently, and can be easily removed when not needed or wanted any longer. It is often much cheaper to fill cracks with straw than to feed animals that, without this, would be exposed to driv- ing winds. The farmers in this section have seldom, for three or four years, grown their needed supply of potatoes, Yet there is one farmer that grew good crops under straw, when his neighbors all failed. For our home use, we will depend mainly in the fu- ture on the crop grown under straw. Many clay farms could be much bene- fited by a light covering of straw plow- ed under. This requires considerable labor, but I believe would in the end be a source of profit to the farmer. Oftentimes this would give the land more life and aid in starting a crop of clover, which would be a step on the road to improvement. A good deal of this is not done because the profit does not come immediately to hand. We must learn in our farming operations | that we must be continually adding te the needs of the soil—or the poverty of the soil, when we most need its strength, will come-upon. us with crushing certainty. I know lands in this. condition that are a burden to the owner never yielding a just com- pensation for the labor bestowed on them. Hiring Farm Help. If a farmer does not hire farm help by the year, which is the better way, he should, at least, secure it as early as possible, says the American Culti- vator. If he gets really good help, the , extra pay for a month before much out- | of-door work can be done will not j lessen his profits, for a thoughtful hired man will find much to do, even now, that will lessen the labor re- quired during the months when work is hardest. All the supplies of wood for the year should be secured this month: If you wait later, when sap begins’ to rise in the trees, the wood wil] take longer to dry and be less valuable. As for the extra wages which it will cost to hire a qualified, efficient man, they wi!l be saved over and over during the summer. A care- less, shiftless farm helper, hired be- cause he will work for low wages, will waste and lose during the year more than the wages of aman who thorough- ly understands his business. Building Wire Feneces—In the build- ing of all wire fences, whether barbed wire or woven wire, one important item is the setting and bracing of the corners and end posts so that they will not give; otherwise the wires are cer- tain to sag ,and this naturally lessens | the effectiveness of the fence.

One of the most amusing instances of misunderstanding a word is told by an old church warden of Wallingford, England. At one time the Bishop of Oxford sent round to the church wardens in- quiries, among which was: “Does your officiating clergyman preach the gospel, and is his conversa- tion and carriage consistent there- with?” To this the church warden of Wall- ingford replied: “He preaches the gospel, but he does not keep a carriage.’’"—Chicago Demo- erat. : Sound Philosophy. “A mean man,” said Uncle Eben, “does a heap o’ hahm in settin’ a standard by which his deservin’ fel- low humans is li’ble ter be jedged.
