Training and Feeding Oxen.
Experience has demonstrated that
DtVOB oxen nrp to lie preferred to
tbOM of other breeds, owing to the fact
that they niv more active, snya Hoard's
Inlrjiiiiin. oxen from the Hereford
ntiil Susex I. reeds luive also nnirnl
themaelroa very O0d workers. QfBtdt
Item make very food oxen, but tire n
little more refined thnn they would
be If they were not castrated. It is a
general practice to use n yoke where a
team Is BOOB hnrness belnit fenslhle
only where single nnlmnls are to be
hit' lied. The training cannot be begun
lOO young, but as n rule they are bro
ken as yearlings and not put to heavy
wink until two years old. They can be
trained by yoking two steers nnd hitch
ing them to a log or some such object
to be pulled around In nn open lot. To
teach the steers "gee nnd haw," It Is
necessary iti some Instances to use a
halter on one of the animals for a short
time. As a usual practice oxen are fed
on grain and liny varying In amount
according to their also nnd their work.
Care of Swine.
Two things which should he avoided
with swine In cold weather nre, first,
do not let them sleep In or upon heating
manure, because they liecome wnnn
and then rush Info the cold nir. fre
fluently contracting colds, coughs or se
vere pulmonary disuses that are some
times fatal: second, bed them well In
dry .piarters where there la no drnft ef
Ir blowing across them.
