FARM KETTLE. t It With a Oo.nl llrlrk Foundation anj Cover It. One of the ntxvsttitiea npon a farm is a rt kettle for boiling food for Iioks, hens tnd other stock. It is often impossible to locate this within one of the farm building, and so the necessity ftrisea of building brick foundation for the ket- FARM KETTLE. tie ont of dittira. Such a kettle should be protected from the weather, for if it is not the kettle is soon rusted, and the bricks become loosened by the eutrauce of water from the top. A good protec tion is shown in the illustration. The corner uprights are secured to the brick work by irou straps, oue side and the front of the wooden structure being hinged at the top, allowing free access to the kettle. This useful contrivance will be more convenient if the top of the structure in which the kettle is set be of one complete slab of stone, slate or soap stone, but this is not at all necessary. American Agriculturist. Preparing Poultry For Market. Ponltry Poultry should be kept from food 24 hours before killing. Chickens Kill by bleeding in the roof of the mouth or veins of the neck; leave head and feet on; do not draw crop or iutestines. For scalding use water just below the boiling point; pick neck and legs while dry; hold by head and legs nnd dip three times. By avoiding scald ing the head and legs the fowl will pre sent a much better appearance. When the comb has been dipped in water, it turns bluish red, which hurts the sale. Remove the feathers and pin feathers immediately and be careful to avoid breaking the skin; then plump by dip ping 10 seconds into water just under boiling point and then into cold water for 10 minutes. Eang in cool place un til the annual heat is entirely out. In dry picking carefully and rapidly re move all feathers while the chicken is yet warm and bleeding, being careful as before about breaking the skin. Turkeys Observe the same rule about feeding and killing as chickens, but dry pick while the turkey is bleeding. Never wait until the body is cool; remove all the feathers from tbe wings, leaving head and feet on; do not draw entrails or crop; throw out all the scalawags, feed them up and do not kill until the season is well advanced, aud then scald and plump the same at chickens. They bring bet ter prices than if dry picked. Ducks aud Geese Observe the same directions as given in the scalding of chickens, leaving them in the water long er, however, to loosen the feathers. Both ducks aud geese always sell best scalded, although w receive numerous consign ments of dry picked stock. Never dry pick jnst before killing, as it gives the skin an unfavorable appearance and is an injury to the sale and a very cruel treatment to the bird. Directions For Packing Pack in boxes or barrels lined with clean paper. Keep the body and legs straightened out, as it adds to the appearance when opened for sale:. If possible, put only one kind in a box. Poultry frozen will not command as good a price as that which is not. Old aud heavy torn turkeys should be mar keted before the holidays, as later the demand is for fat hen turkeys only. Game must not be drawn except in warm weather, and then ice should be used. Gtese, wild turkeys and ducks should be packed in their natural state. Partridge, grouse (prairie chickens), woodcock and quail arrive in better or der and sell better when wrapped in pa per. Excliange. Dehorn. Last winter my brother and I dehorn ed our cattle for feeding and for ship ping off pasture. We Bold for better prices than any one else in this section, because our cattle took on flesh better. They looked smoother, there being no rough horns to disfigure them. The roughest looking horned animal looks smooth and nice after being dehorned. It takes less shelter for them and less feed to fatten. They become perfectly harmless when turned with any other stock, there being no danger of them goring other animals. It renders them more docile and changes their disposi tion altogether. I will never winter another animal with horns on. Many of my neighbors watched tbe results of our dehorning with interest last winter, aud now many of them are falling in line and dehorning this winter. I have dehorned quite a lot of cattle this season and will dehorn many more. I use a draw cut knife. I consider it the best knife I ever saw. I prefer it to tbe saw or any shear cut knife, for with the latter there is danger of fracturing the horn or skull, thereby causing it to be longer in healing over. The saw makes the work too slow. I can dehorn a spring calf or an animal 12 years old with good results. It is best to dehorn cattle while young, since the horns are easier cut aud will heal np much quicker. I dehorned soine cows last week, within two months of drop ping their offspring, with no bad effects. It does not materially decrease the flow of milk in fresh cows to dehorn them. I am a common farmer, and the above is my own actual experience without any exaggeration. S. D. Whitener in St. Louis Journal of Agriculture. 5534 THE FARMER'S TROTTER IN WINTER. flWa Illra a ll.ii Stall and a Yard to Kior t'lae In. TJie methods mid ideas of wintering campaigners hu u changed materially in these latter day. The best trainers no longer believe that a whiter of idleness is the lest prepan ,tiou for a successful sum mer campaign, and in all the great train ing stables activity ranging iu degree from eeut'al exircise to actual work is the rule. The views printed below re cently appeared in a farm paper and are Interesting as an exposition of a farmer's idea of wintering a trotter. The idea of starviug or freeing ont horses has long been exploded with me and must have originated with some oue who was so confoundedly mean thai he grudged the horses the grain neces sary for them to retain their stamina. My idea of wintering a trotter is to turu him into a larg roomy box, first hav ing prepared him by tukiug off the clothes he has beeu wearing, putting lighter ones on, removing them so that he may get a good, thick coating of hair that will protect him better than arti ficial application of blankets his shoes pulled off, of course. Adjoining this box let there be a yard well littered with straw, aud every day J that is not too stormy give him the run of the yard for several hours. Have the best of timothy cut when thesood is just forming and when the bloom is entirely off, well cured, but not exposed to the sun and air till half of its nutritious ; qualities have been wasted. Have a large manger in which the horse can turn this hay over, selecting j the part of it that suits him best; but if good and properly cured all will be eaten. ! This manger should take np the whole ' end of the box, high enough that in Mil-1 iug there will be no danger of getting ' into it; built perpendicularly, so that if inclined to paw while eating the knee I will not hit it, as would be the case where it sloped from him. In one end of this manger set a porcelain lined feed trough, or in lieu of that a common cast iron kettle that will hold two or three pail fills. Give him at intervals three feeds a day of good oats, every other day substitut ing a few ears of sound old corn. The dent varieties are the beet. The amount will depend on the size of the fat form ing qualities, but from six to eight quarts of oats daily, or its equivalent in other feed, will generally be found suf ficient, the quantity of hay to be un limited, so that the stomach will be filled, restoring the muscular power in I that organ which may have been im paired in the preparation for sweat and j races the preceding summer. Once or twice a week give a bran f mash and place a box containing salt ! within reach. Through the winter change the feed by giving cut feed, car rots, wheat, rye, barley, meal, etc., and as the spring comes on a little oilmeal, flax or sunflower seeds will assist in shedding the old coat and producing a soft, shiny new one to take its place. He should be watered three times a day, the litter in the box shaken np and all the soiled portions thrown out once a day. No grooming will bo needed if plenty of clean straw is kept in his yard and box, and for this much of the year, at least, he will be exempt from the tor tureto a thin skinned horse of cur rycomb aud brush. In the temperature of this box we know of no better rule to observe than that, after proper precautions have been taken for thorough ventilation, it may be made so close as to exclude the outer air. If this is done by building a hollow brick wall or a wooden oue, tho aim will j be reached. e have seen stables built of logs that were us good, and hones wintered in them iu well, as when thousands of dollars bad been lavished to rear a structure that has all the ap pliances of modern times to make its inmates comfortable. We do not mean by this remark to he understood that we find fault with the taste displayed by our wealthy men in building fine barns and stables. They are not only a great ornament to a fine villa or city residence, but they are so comfortable for the horses and so handy for those who have them in charge that to one who had been accustomed to the best half a century ago the change would be tuar velons. For a country place or farm there is nothing that adds more of a home look than good outbuildings, and we would have the horse barn uot too far distant from the house in fact, we would have it so near that, let the weather be as rough as it might, there would be no dread of going from one to the other. It should be a prominent feature in the pic ture made up of the dwelling, lawn, or chard and paddocks, where the matrons of the stud and their offspring are sun ning themselves. If not naturally protected, we would shelter it with belts of trees, evergreen and deciduous. To sum up, we would have it look as if its inmates were just as well taken care of as those in the more pretentious dwelling, and where horses, like the falcon, would have their eye for the beautiful gratified whenever they looked out of the box window. Horseman. Live Stock Point. A metropolitan journal tells a remark able story of a young hen that was set on ducks. When the ducklings were hatched, they took naturally to swim ming in the brook, and the hen watched them from the shore. Ever after that, when set on her own kind of eggs, the hen led her chicks to the water and tried to force them in. We will bet an ounce of horse medicine to a quart of chicken feed that this story is not true. To get the best results from straw and fodder as feed, they should be run through a cutter, then steamed or mois tened and mixed with grain or roots. You can make a com.iderabie having of hay by preparing an-uf.uU; fodder and straw in this way. Take the papers yourself ami see what the animals you want to sell are bring ing in the city markets. Don't be a chump and let every rascally dealer pluck you. clear! M long 1 SKIN C. LIFE MENTAL I in f: STRONG ENERGY LSli NERVES o AVCD'O Sarsaparilla M.
