HEALTHFUL BREATHING. and bromhitis and preventing A PUNSTER'S EXCUSE. WEERE BAMBOO GROWS lBh-t, a well known blacksmith; at FPisquid, P. E. I., is one wfh‘o suffered :for years, and relates his experience 1for the benefit of similar sufferers. Mr. Birt says :-â€"-"For miny years I was a victim of indigestion, accom- panied by nervousness, palpitation of ’the heart and other distressing sy mp- ltoms. My appetite was irregular, and what I ate felt like a weight in my‘ stomach‘; this was accompanied by a feeling of stupor or sleepiness, and: yet I rarely enjoyed a night’s eound' sleep. Whien I would retire a creeping sensation would come over me, with pains and fluttering around the heart, and then when I arose in the morning, I would feel as tired and fatigued as I did before I went to bed. It is needless to say that I was continually taking medicine, . and tmied, I think, almost everything recolmmetnded as a cure for the tron- ble." Occasiotnally I got temporary relief, but the trouble always came back. 115113le in: a Still more aggra- vated form. All this, of course, cost a great deal of money,__. and as the expenditure seemed useless I was very much discouraged._ One day one of my nrexirgbbaI'S. who had used Dr.~ \Vi-lliuaxns’ Pink Pills with much benefit, advised me to try them, and I decided to do so, thinking never- theless. that .it wonild be but an- other hopeless experiment. .To my great gratification, however, I had anly been using the pills a few weeks when I felt decidedly better, and things began to look brighter. I con- tinued taking the pills for several months, with the result that my health wasae good and my digestion better than it had ever been. One of the most flattering results of the treatment was my increase in weight from 125 pounds to 155 pounds. It is more than a year now since I die- continued the use ol.’ the pills and in that time I have not had the slight- est return. at the trouble. We al-‘ Sway; keep the pills in the house Another writer says that corn or any oi the crops ouitable for making silage may be put into the silo whole. He thinks, however, that the increase labor in feedingwill be great enough to pay the extra expense of cutting where twenty head of cattle are to be continuously cared for. He aloe be- Iieves that the silage will be eaten more completely if a cutter is used. The author did not intend to mislead but the statement cannot be indom- ed that all silage should be cut. Wide eXPerience with corn silage will fully convince anyone that it is not best to cut the corn before it is put into the silo. The corn plant is a perfect silo of itself. When out into pieces the juice is exposed to the air, and before long undue fermentation sets in. This trouble is not experienced when the corn is ptut into the silo w hole. SLfiW STABVATIGN.

Dyspepsia, or indigestion, as it is also frequently called, is one of the most serious ailments that afflicts mankind. When the stomach loses its craving for food. and the power to digest it, the person so afflicted is both mentally and physically in a condition of wretchedness. The symptoms of the disorder are mani- fold, and among them may be noted, a feeling of weight in the region of the stomach. sick headache, ioffensive breath. heartburn, a disagreeable taste in the mouth, irritability of temper, disturbed sleep, etc. The con- dition is in fact one of slow starva- tion of the blood, nerves and body, and on the first symptoms treatmentl through the use of Dr. W’illiams’ Pink Pills should be sought.

For instance, one recommends stave silos for a cold cliniato. This kind of Construction answer-s very well for a mild climate, but it is not satisfactory for cold ones. Another writer says it makes no difference Whether the foun- dation of the silo is flush with the outside or the inside of the structure, but considerable silage is lost each year by having the foundation flush with the outside. The silo walls should be smooth so that the silage will set- tle evenly. i WHOLE CORN FOR SILAGE. 7‘ Viki-M f Ems: The nest boxes and perches should be thoroughly painted with kerosene and then whitewashed. To each? gal- lon of lime waslh add 1 oz. crude car- bolic acid. Burn the nest boxes it they are old. If the house cannot be fumi- gated whitewash thoroughly. being sure that the wash reaches all crevices and cracks on walls. floor and ceil- ing. In the bottom of each neat place a handful of tobacco stumps before putting in new nesting material. Dust the fowls well with insect or lice pow- der. If they roost in old sheds or barns these should be whitewashed also. ‘TWit‘h a small spray pump the wash can be not on very quickly and effectively. Kerosene emulsion is a good remedy also. The house should be stripped of all movable fixtures, including feed and water vessels, nests and perches. Re- move and burn all litter. If you can make the house tight fumigate thor- oughly with sulphur, hydrocyanic acid gas or bisulphide of carbon. The gas treatment is the moat effective, but great care‘ must be exercieed in using it. Multiply the length, breadth and height of your house together, and to every,cubic foot of contents use .20 gram of best grade potassium cyanide one-half more best sulphuric acid and one-half more water than acid. Put the acid in a stone or glass jar, pour in the Water and then put in the cyanide, after which get out and shut the door quickly. Thus a house 81:10 and 6 feet high would require 3 02., Troy weight, of cyanide, 41-2 028.. liquid measure, acid, and 6 3-4 028. water. Begin-the feeding season as follows: Give ensilage or straw and turnips in the morning. ‘Toward noon turn the cattle out into file yard if the weather is fine, for three or four hours. .They get water and straw from the straw stacks or racks. They get exercise and roam about, rubbing themselves at leisure. Care must be taken to keep them free from or rid them of vermin, for double the feed does not make up the loss caused by these pests. 'VVhile the cattle are in the yard clean out the stables and place a feed of hay in mangers and a quart or mdre orf chap or grain according to age, size, etc. To this they will rush. Tie quickly and leave “until 6 o’clock, when thfiy are fed again with straw and turnips and bedded for the night. For two or three months during the severe wea~ ther discontinue turnip feeding and increase the quantity of chOp and feed hay right along. About the first of March again begin giving turnips and feed moderately at first, increas- ing the quantity according to season. and amount of feed on hand. Feed turnips, hay and chop liberally as spring draws nearer, and allow free access to salt or feed it once or twice a week. ' As a rule, feeding in northern lati- tndes begins -in November and con- tinues until May. Therefore as it lasts the greater part of the six win- ter months it is- important‘that we use the most economical methods. In the first place, repair the stables, mak- - ins them warm and comfortable, thei floor even, with close-fitting stalls, . mangers, feed boxes, ties, etc., doors that swing freely and windows which supply ample light and ventilation, Same prefer the following‘plan: They ! inclose the sheds, have the feed over- ' head and place racks at the sides where the feed is thrown down. De- horn the cattle, as some of. them, should be in any event. and bunch them together like so many sheep, where they shall feed and quietly ‘rest. The stall feeding plan is pre- ferable. although it involves more work. Each animal receives the share ; allotted;more satisfactogly. ; As a rule, cattle should be fed per day half bushel turnips, a quart or more of oats, or other mixed grain chopped, one good feed of hay, and What straw they want with corn- stalks and ensilage if you have it. This is meant for wintering and bip- ing them hold-their own, but is not a fattening ration. CDurnips are the best to feed -by all odds. to keep oat- t'le thrifty, healthy and to fit them for the change to grass in Spring. These rations for winter feeding may seem small at first thought, but they are larger than those generally fed through the country. I ' To provide for cases of emergency it is wise to keep some medicine in the stable. Turpentine often affords re- lief in ailments among stock, By the way, a word to the owner: Do not trust the work of feeding wholly to young boys. If you expect the stock to come out right in spring, be with the boys, often, directing and giving a word of encouragement, which tmetans much toward interesting them in the work. at the right timeâ€"just as it is be- ginning to glass. Put corn into that silo in bundla just as it comes from the corn binder. Place it in layers 2 1:. thick, using a bay for]: for elevat- ing it and dropping it into the silo. The cost of doing the work Ls great- l'y reduqed and it will never give any trouble in' getting the silage out of the silo and into the mans-era. 1y air-tight silo, and the corn put in W'INTERING CATTLE IN STABLES.
