The Huron Expositor, 1878-03-22, Page 6Inkat an 1giiah Farmer Says
about SLheap Feedbag.
I must -now Make a few remarks re-
specOng feeding sheep in winter. Roots
as a general rule should be cut into fin.
ger slices for the flock and put into
troughs. There is much less waste by
thia system than when they are com-
pelled to gnaw the roots, the shells of
which are frequently trodden into the
dirt instead, of devoured., For hoggets it
i,s indispensaibly necessary that roots
should be out and placed in troughs, aa
they are shelling their teeth the first
winter, and help he their dental organs
affords them ability to thrive better.
Some prefer pulping roots to any form,
of cutting, but general experience scarce-
ly endorses the practice, whieh, how-
ever, may be particularly serviceable in
exeeptional cases, when roots* are very
scarce, and require; to be eked out spar-
ingly- A little root pulp Will go a long
evaymixedwith hay and straw -chaff and
a =all quantity of oil cake.' -
Sheep, like most other animals, pre-
fer a mixed dietary to one kind, of food,
and they thrive better and keep. more
healthy when fed. on partly dry and
partly succulent food. All dry fodder,
I°t waver, suits the ovine system better
than all succulenaprovided it be whole-
some and palatable. Fed ou good hay,
they absolutely requihe little else, only
that, in many cases, would be too ex-
pensive. On the chalk hills where the
seinfoinhay can be grown cheaply, it
may &Bawer to depend on it quite as
Much, if not more, than oriturnips. The
sainfoin plant, .on a suitable soil, will
last eight or even a dozen years, and, if
properly managed, will increase rather
than diminish its yield of hay e and
have noticed letters from chalk -land
farmers affirming that thia is the cheap
est winter sheep -feeding crop they can
grow. Whether this is so or not, it is
no doubt the healthiest,particularly for
ewes in lamb. These should never be
allowed too much succulent food,which
has a,- tendency to make them throw
their lambs. Not only. does abortion
often ensue by ewes constantly feeding
on turnips, but over -flooding the womb
is said to be not unfrequently occasion-
ed by theengenderment of too ranch
water, a fruitful cause of ewes produc-
ing dead lambs when they-, go to their
proper time ere they yeari.
Nor is it well to feed any kinds of
sheep wholly on roots, particularly on
• cold winter mornings, when the turnips
given there are frozen. Common tur-
nips have something like 95 per cent.
of water in their composition, and man
golds and Swedes have nearly- 90 per
eent. Sheep fed wholly, or even chiefly
on roots, almost invariably scour, and
sometimes colds, chills, agues, colics
and, other internal ailments are occa-
sioned by the too laxative dietary. To
those flocknaasters who have neither
asinfoin fields or water mea,dews on
which to depend for abandant stores of
hay, the latter may be expensive fodder
to get, but they may generally find a
suitable substitute in good wholesome
straw, and a little cotton cake,
Sheep always do better on cabbages
. than on roots, but these do not offer as
winter food after Christmas. There is
however, Mr. Robert Russel's thousand -
headed kale, which remains in the land
the entire winter, waiting to be eaten,
and may be Consumed at any period
frora October to March. Both kohl
Thief and mangolda are much more ex-
tensively used as winter food for sheep
than they used to be, and the latter is
found invaluable even on light land
farms to have a- store of roots to fail back
upon, in the spring.
e
Proper Care of Poultry. -
• Perhaps fowlin the farmyard suffer
more from the 'want of pure water in
winter than from any other cause. In
the summer they usually get plenty and
do well enougb, but in our cold climate,*
when springs and brooks are frozen solid
when tanks and. swill pails are no long-
er available, then their daily allowance
is entirely cut off, and often for weeks
and even months they do not get a
drop of water. They eat snow when it
is to be had, and they could do nothing
worse, for this has the singular quality
of making them poor, and they should
never be allowed to eat it. If they are
supplied with water they will not eat
snow. Thi a treatment, with very little
variation and a few exceptions is the
* rule among ferniers. The result is that

scourge of poultry—the cholere. Years
ago the cholera was dreaded as a most
fearful plague among the hunaan family.
Towns and cities wets devastated by
-its ravages : bat of late years, by clean-

cities, and by the proper measures it
has lost its terrors. Her lies the great
remedy for chicken cholera—cleanliness
and proper care. This will do more to
rid the 'country of this plague than all
the patent oostrums in existence. With

The Charm of Musi6.1
Two stories are told ia in pub-
lished work entitled " Musical Anec-
dotes.' One relates what a time a bull
and a fiddling tailor had while tile lat-
ter was getting home from a ilauce.. in
the small hours of a June morn-
ing:
Passing through a field about three
o'clock he was attacked by a bull. Af-
ter several efforts to escance he attempt-

Sight Suddebly- Restored for a
Few Minutes. '
The Elizabethtown Hews, of Ken-
tucky, tells us ,that• Mrs. Abbot, who
reside i within a few miles of Pitt's
Point, in this county, had a singular cir-
cumstance happen to her- one day last
week. She has been totally blind for
about eight years, but for about ten
minutes on the day in question, she re-
covered her sight and was enabled dur-
ing the brief period to see -everything
about the house—something she had
not been able to do for eight years be-
fore. - The house had recently
been newly papered and. paint-
ed, and, when total blindness
came over her again, she described ac-
curately the various colors used in the
papering and painting. Her son had
marred' since she lost her sight, and
she had never seen her daughter-in-
law, but, in the period she was restored
to sight, she saw her, and afterwards de-
scribed het appearaope accurately. The
momentary ecstacy occasioned by the
miraculous restoration to sight was as
suddenly dissipated ;by its equally in-
stantaneous loss, and she is now as
blind as ever.
•
Tongue s
Nothing but the proboscis of an ele-
phant compares in muscular flexibility
with the tongue. A varies in length and
Biz° in reptiles, birds and mammal*
according to the peculitte organic cir-
cumstances of each. A giraffe's tongue
has the functions of Rogers. It is hook-
ed over a high branch, its strength be-
ing equal to breaking off large, strong
branches of trees, from which 'tender
leaves are then stripped. An itiat-bear's
tongue is long end round like a whip-
lash. The animal tears open dry, clay
walls of ant -hills, thrusts in its tongue,
which sweeps round the apartments,
and by an adhesive saliva brings out a
yard of ants at a swoop. The mechan-
ism b Which it is protracted so fax is
both complicated and beautiful. A dog's
tongue in lapping water, takess form by
a mere act of volition, that cannot be
imitated by an ingenious meehauism.
The human tongue in the articulation
of language, surpasses in variety of mo-
tions the 1.sildest imagination of a poet.
Even in swallowing food its office is so
extraerdinary that physiologists cannot
explain the phenomena of deglutition
without employing the aid of several
sciences—h'.'8 Journal of Health.
A Good. Word for the Crow.,
For thirty years we have eavocated
the protection of the crow instead of
having laws passed for its destruction.
The only crime charged against it is
that it will pull up corn. This is done
to get at the soft grain clinging to the
sprout; but even this can be prevented
by soaking, say, a peck of corn until it
becomes soft, and scattering it in anad-
joining field. A few quarts at a time 1 have decided to
