FARM ANIMALS
CRAVE FOR SALI
They Will Consume Just
What They Need
und N i More.
All farm animals have an Instlnc
tive craving for salt. But if it is so
placed as to be always within their
reach, they will consume Just as much
as they need, and no more. It is only
when It Ims been kept from them for
a long period that there is danger of
their eating too much. It is therefor*
an excellent practice to keep It in n
box or boxes where they can have
access to It whenever they desire.
When they are salted, as Is the prac­
tice with many farmers, only once n
week, while some may get enough,
others may suffer from a deficient
supply. Salt promotes an active cir­
culation of the blood, which never be­
comes thick and sluggish bo long as
the supply Is plentiful; It assists di­
gestion, and Is often a preventive of
disease. It to so cheap that no stock-
raiser can really afford to deny to hie
animals all they want of it.
Root Crop* for Cow*.
Roots can form to advantage a part
of many rations, particularly where si-
läge Is not available. They contain
too much water to form the entire ra
tion.
Potatoes contain the largest
amount of digestible matter, but are
not readily eaten unlens cooked. Man­
golds are the heaviest ylelders, but con­
tain so large a percentage of water
that they are rather expensive to han­
dle. Sugar beet* contain much les*
water, but are more difficult to grow
and do not produce bo heavy a yield.
Artichoke* often make a profitable hog
feed, where the hogs are permitted to
do the harvesting.
Value of Stover,
When It Is known that three tom
of corn stover is practically equal to
one ton of mixed clover and timothy
hay, any farmer can easily figure out
whether It will pay him to save hit
clover or not.
Best Grade* and the Price.
To * hungry person any old hen may
taste tender and good, but to the epi­
cure only the best grades sell well,
and it Is to this class that the market
