J. Pa'tterson The Great Watch Doctor, Wingham, WrNGITAIST ADVANO1, THURSDAY, MARCH 18, 1909, 5 FEED OF QATTI,E. Changing From r to Summer Rations With thos# a l tr»< Damage. There is quite a knack in getting ca' tle from winter feed; over to sumninl, feed with the least damage to the cat tie and: to the pastures, !1'.tie change is quite a radical one, and it Is important that it be made very carefully, A, great many farmers Have the habit of turning out their cattle to pasture as soon as it begins to show green. There is but one combinationof cir- cumstanees in which this can be done to advantage either to the live stock or to the pasture --namely, when the full growth of blue grass has been allowed to remain on the gropnd dur- ing the winter and until the green grass begins to shove under the old crop, writes W. 13. Underwood in Farm and Fireside. The cattlee can thea be turned on to it with great prat both to the live stock and the pasture. This green grass which has been lying under the snow during the winter season Is almost as good through the winter as it was in the fall, and, while it loses much of its value by the celd winds and rain o1. Alarch, nevertheless it has a great amount of feeding value. When the live stock are turned on to this the rations are so gradually changed from dry feed to green feed that they thrive right along while the change is being made. It .is quite otherwise when cattle must be turned ou pastures that bare been closely eaten down in the full of the year. Here the grass comes more slowly, and when cattle must be turned on this kind of pasture, even for au hour or two in the day, before they can get a full bite they are indisposed to eat hay or fodder and hence are very likely to fall away in flesh instead of gaining, as cattle should. I could never see any advantage in turning •cattle on an ordinary pasture before they were able to get a fill' bite. If they are kept ou dry feed all this time, this involves a radical change; hence they are not expected to gain much the first month while this change is going on. All this shows the importance of hav- ing on every farm of any considerable size a permanent pasture, which can be glazed as' close as is desirable up tc the middle of the summer and then allowed to make very considerable growth by not being too closely pas-. tured in the fall, in order that it may be held as a reserve in the spring, by means of which live stock can be changed over from winter feed to sum- mer feed without any damage either tc the pasture or to the animals them- selves. .A. sudden change from the writer feed to summer feed is especially harmful where the pasture is largely clover. Unless very great care 1s taken cattle will so gorge themselves with this luscious feed that bloating is likely to result. Even where this does not occur the cattle will not show much gain for two weeks and possibly a mouth. O I THE HORSEMAN.I d U The work Horse should be supplied with about two pounds of provender for each hundred pounds of weight. 01 this from ten to eighteen pounds; ac- cording to the severity of the labor performed, should be grain in some form. The heavy feeding should come at night, after the long day's work is over and when the animal has time for masticating and digesting bis food. Feed the Mare Liberally. The first foal of some mares has been the best that they have ever produced. \V. R. Gilbert expresses a belief that the reasonfor this is such mares may have been regularly worked and liber- ally fed when carrying their first foals, but in subsequent years were cone pelled to get their living at pasture while carrying one foal and nursing iinotber. Remedy For Chronic Cough. Dr. Fowler las had best success with the following remedy for chronic cough in horses: Give tablespoonful of sirup squills, a tablespoonful of tincture' opium and a teaspoonful muriate am- monia in feed two or three times a day. Care of Legs and Feat. Too much care cannot be given to the legs and feet of horses. This is especially the case with horses on the farm. Hours are spent in brushing the hair, mane and tail, but the legsand feet are neglected. Many horses are permanently injured because the feet are neglected. The most beautiful horse would be worthless without sound limbs and feet. Have your horse properly shod. stub his legs thoroughly when cleating hint. Wash the legs after 'a hard day's work and rub them thy. If you have any time to spare, it will pay to bandage each ]eg for a short time after long drives or exfra hard work. Sore Shoulders. Sore shoulders are caused by Im- properly fitting collars or by allowing dirt and hair to collect under the col- lar and remain there from one day to another. Use none other than a per- fect fitting collar. If you do not un- derstand fitting the collar, take an experienced man with you when you visit the harness store. Always use a good pad, one that contains no lumps In the padding or that has padding that cannot be easily detached and moved into humps under the collar. Then keep the shoulders clean. It is a good plan to Wash the horse's shout. dens every' evening after removing the harness.

Holmes - Whitechurch Assistant Teacher, Major Craig, member of 'the Ontario Legislature for East Wellington, will introduce a bill dealing with the en- gagement of assistant teachers. I.VIr. Oraig's bill will enact that an assistant teacher may be secured only when the number of pupils on the roll ex- ceeds forty. When eighty pupils are enrolled, a second assistant may be added, and so on, at the rate of forty students to the teacher. Tho bill bas not been discussed yet. Sometimes Carelessness. Speaking of pneumonia a London doctor said :—In nine cases out of ten, the affliction was due to the patient's own carelessness. A warm day comes along and they throw off their heavy clothes, regardless of the month or what risks they are subjecting them- selves to, and inevitably sickness fol- lows. People should remember that pneumonia is often a forerunner of the deadly white plague, and. there- fore exercise caution. The Gold Of The World, To possess all the gold in the world would appear, to most people, a ter- rible burden ; but providing it was suf- ficiently insured, it would bo little or no trouble. A rough estimate places the value of a cubic yard of gold at £,000,000 ; so that all the gold in the world, it melted into ingots, could be contained in a cellar 24 feet square and 16 feet high. All the wealth so far obtained fiom Australia and Cali- fornia could be comfortably tucked away in one office, All that would be required would be an iron safe nine feet square and nine feet high. To givean idea of how small is the little cube of yellow metal, it may be stated that the gold with which Solomon overlaid the "most holy place"—a room only thirty feet square --amount- ed to more than thirty-eight millions sferling.

He was just 81 days making the trip homeward, He had with him nearly a pocket full of diamonds in the rough, which he showed. to Mr, Iiellyar, jeweller, and others. Mr. Hiram. Hill had the misfortune to meet with a, bad. accident on Satur- day last. He started. for Goderich with a sleigh load of show cases, mir- rors, etc,, that was being taken from the store of Hodgens. Bros. here to Goderich. The sleighing was bad, and he found it necessary .to turn off into the ditch, and in doing so, the horses broke through ,the crust of ice, and started plunging, and the sleigh up- set, smashing a good portion of the load, Will a load weigh the same when the team are hitched as when they are unhitched, is a question •that looked. interesting to his Hon, Judge Holt at the March sitting of the Division Court. The case under trial was a suit by "Bill" Garrett against Alex. Cooper of Goderich. Mr. Garrett sold some grain to Mr. Cooper and claimed that his load weighed more on the market scales than the weight Mr. Cooper allowed him for. He also made a claim for a higher price per bushel than' Mr. Cooper paid. Mr. Cooper claimed his scales were abso- lutely correct and Mr. Garrett offered to take his sleigh to the market scales and have it weighed with the team bitched and with the team unhitched for the information of his Honor. The ease, however, was dismissed without the test being made. MAKE MONEY Selling Pelham's Peerless Fruit and Ornamental Trees, Shrubs, etc., dining the winter months.
