'Q.GRIQULTURAL,
Winter Farin Chorea.
Are yet 8 farmer ? If ao, is doing eboree
irksome to you? It hadn't ought to be, but
etiil I bave heard farmers complain along
that line. They were ones who were not
making any money, Perhaps thole semi -
poverty was due bo too little or too much
gold and silver in the national treasury. I
don't know about that but anyway thoy
lilted bo dimes this political subject better
than the topic of bow beat to do chores in
winter about the barn,

And, furthermore, ho thinks that 1 should

Ono.
This was made imperative. in order to
attain suction, whether the sentiment of
the dairyman ran that way or not.
Milking twice a day through the cold
season, has thus been added to the chore
features on dairy farms, This means more
work, more responsibility, and more money
in doing chores. The man to do winter
chores nowadays should be a competent
man, not an irresponsible tramp, or a boy
who ought to be in school.
It takoe skill to make a cow pay in the
summer, and more skill to make one pay
in the winter. Throwing hay to one three
times a day is not going to do it. When
you keep the stable clean by dumping the
manure out in the barnyard, you are losing
half of the nitrogen in it. Spread it on
the fields and save the life of the manure.
The farm chores form the principal work
of the agriculturist during the winter
mouths that aro now upon us. There aro
few farmers but what consider doing the
chores as work, although the labor might
seem to an outsider as a species of rearea-
iton. Labor is sweet to just such n degree
as we take interest in it, and 00 it is with
the duties involving the winter side of farm
work.
I know a farmer's son ono who detested
dcing barn chores, because it made his
clothes and hands moll of the stable, Such
boys who aspire to mercantile or profession.
al pursuits, should remember that the mosb
successful merchants and prcfessional men
have never shirked the unpleasant tbinga
In their callings, which are often 1nore
agreeable than anything encountered on the
farm.
So many haws abjured farm life, cocking
to become great in other callings and have
signally failed, that at present theproapeots
for becoming great in agriculture aro more
bright than in the profeasiooal pursuits.
'Tut," you ask, what has greatness on the
farm got to do with doing chorea there?"
Well, 1 will tell you. 1 saw a farmer the
other morning eleeming out his cow stable,
and feeding his pigs. In the afternoon of
the same day 1 heard him deliver a valu-
able discourse on dairying from the rostrum
of a farmer's institute. He is an authority
on praotioal agricultural matters in his
neighborhood, county and State. He does
not despise doing barn chores, any more
than he does the work of following the
plow, or reading an essay before an an•
dience.
He would not trust the feeding of hie
cows, horses and pigs to everybody, no,
not he. Ile took so Moen as interest in all
F departments of his farm work, bhabne part
of it was to him disagreeable. In farming
we can do no better than to emulate the
example of such men who make agrfeul.
turn successful by their own greatness of
mind, applied to detail work, I regard
the doing of winter chores about the barns
pig.stys and poultry itou0ea as nearly half
of farming, shine it lasts half of the year
and involves the Dare and profit of all the
live stook on thepromises. What will swine
amount to next summer if they don't have

substantial What will wool clip on your
amount to for 1891 if the sheep freeze to
the ground nigh te, and pull out great patches
from their fleeces, when they struggle to

expect the heifer calf to make a No. 1 cow
whose hair is kept turned toward her Head,
except when there comes a thaw ?
1 mad not been long its agricultural life
before I found out that it paid me to do
the chores at the barn myself. I could
make money faster that way in winter than
at anything else, and there are many farm-
ers who say the same. Among other facts
learned in those early days. I found that
it was easier to keep the oowe at even milk
yield than to bring them up to it by heavy
feeding, after a heedless helper had been
trusted with their care ; that it was more
neat to keep the dung from the Dow's udder
by dry bedding than to wash it off after it
had adhered there, and that there is an
economical and a wasteful way of feeding
out hay by which dollars may be saved or
lost.
My advice to every farmer.ia to be your
own chore boss, if you aro not your own
"chore boy." There's dollars in it, all the
way from November to May, for you know
that a "penny saved is a penny earned."

and the difference between 000000n and

This is a point, oleo, in wltoh very many
farmers are at fault—feeding whenever it
happens to be convenient. The cattle are
thus kept in a restless 0onditfon, constant-
ly expecting food when the keeper enters
the barn, while, if regular hours are strictly
adhered to, they know cxa0tly when they
aro to be fed, and they rest quietly until
the time arrives. Go into a well -regulated
dairy establishment an hour before the
time of feeding, and scarcely an animal will
rise on its fent ; while, if it happens to be
the hour of feeding, the whole herd will
be likely to rise and seize their food wi th an
avidity and relish not to be mistaken.

pursued, no rule can bo proscribed which

ont seasons of the year and the system of
feeding. Cleanliness of the cows, of the
stables within and without, of the attend -
ante, and of all the utensils doming in and
going out of the stable, be of imperative
neocssaby for a successful dairy business.
The stalls and mangers ought always to be
well cleaned out before feeding. The less
cows are exposed to the cold of winter the
better. They eat less, thrive better, and
give more milk, when kept housed all the
time, than when exposed to the cold. We
remember a case where a herd of cows,
which bad been usually supplied from pipes
running through the troughs'in the stall,
were on account of an obstruction in the
pipes, obliged to bo turned int twice a day
to be watered in tate yard. The quantity
of milk instantly decreased, and in three
days the falling ofbeoamevery considerable.
After the pipes were mended, and the cows
again watered as before in their stalls, the
flow of milk returned. This, however, will
be governed m17011 by the weather ; for in
very mild, warm days, it may be ,judicious
not only to let them out but to allow
them bo remain out for several /tours ab
exercise.
Everyone can arrange the hours for the
several processes to suit hi;nsetf ; but, when
once fixed, let it be rigidly and regularly
followed. If the regular and full feeding
be neglected for even a day, the yield of
milk will immediately (leaflet), and it will
be difficult to restore it. It may safely be
assorted that a larger blow of milk follows
a complete system of regularity in this
respect than from a higher feeding where
this 5751010 is not adhered to, One prime
object which the dairyman should keep
constantly in view is, to maintain the
animal in a sound and healthy ooudition.
Without this, no profit can be expected
from n match cow for any considerable
length of time ; and with a view to this
there should bo an occasional change of
food. But, in making changes, great care
is required to supply an equal amount of
nourishment, or the coin falls oil' in flesh
and eventually in milk. We should, there-
fore, bear in .min,/ that the foot( consumed
goes not alone to the secretion of milk,
but also to the growth and maintenance
of the bony structure, the flesh, the blood,

Live Stook Notes.
A cow that will fatten rapidly after she
has passed her usefulness as a utdkor, is of
eapeoal value as a dairy anima'. This is
not the main point, but it is one of the
points to be looped to when buying dairy
stock.
Early maturity is just as valuable in
growing colts as in growing steers. If you
can turn the colt off, thoroughly developed,
at four years old, it is batter than handling
and feeding him until he is six. Good shot.

this end.
In choosing a male for breeding purposes,
you want to select a typical animal of some
established breed. Yon can calculate then
with reasonable certainty upon the result.
If you do not have such asire, the breeding

As a cure for every class of Nervous Diseases, no remedy has been
'eble to compare with the 'Norville Tonic, which is very pleasant and
harmless in all its effects upon the youngest child or the oldest and most
delicate individual. Nine -tenths of all the ailments to which the human
family is heir are dependent on nervous exhaustion and impaired diges-
ti^._2. When there is an insufficient supply cf nerve food in the blood, a
general state of debility of the brain, spinal marrow, and nerves is the
result. Starved nerves, like starved muscles, become strong when the
right kind of food is supplied; and a thous:tad weaknesses and ailments
disappear as the nerves recover. As the nervous system must supply all
the power by which tho vital forces of the body are carrier/ on, itis the
dr'st to suffer for want of perfect nutrition. Ordinary fond does not con-
tain a sufficient quantity of the kind of nutriment necessary to repair
the wear our present mode of living and labor imposes upon the nerves.
For this reason it becomes necessary that a nerve food be supplied.
This South American Nervine has been found by analysis to contain the
essential elements out of which nerve tissue is formed. This accounts
for its universal adaptability to the cure of all forms of nervous de.
rangement.
