We observed above that dricd specimens be-
ing used. what was not HHirHirc matter might
be considered heat prmluciHg. In specimens as
commonly fed out, such as potatoes for instance.
allowance must be made for the water they
contain.
Now for the practical use Of the above re-
marks and table. A mas who does not labor or
exercise much. should live on that kind of food
which is more heat producing than muScie naL-
jng-brcad and vegetable substances rather than
much meat. One who works hard will require
Il somewhat opposite course of diet. In the
feeding of animals many observing farmers have
adopted the right principles without knowing
the rrcat reasons. Some will tell Won that In
dian corn is better for a horse in winter. and
outs in summer. This accords with Thompson's
tables. Iou will there see that the heat produ-
cling powers of corn are nearly 80 out of a hum
bred. while those of oats are but about 81 in Il
hundred. Many farmers will tell you that they
do not give corn to their horses. because il is
tan hoHing, more than oats which is true
They will also tell You that corn will fat horse,
but oats will make him moro jriSiy This is true;
there is more iibrinous or mnSrie matiag matter
in oats than in corn.-.lh. Farmer.

numbers, and suffering much from hunger. The
dead and dying were -trrWcd upon the rold, and

confirmed by all the information since obtained.
Our loss is 2G7 killed, 1876 wounded, aud %
missing. OF the numerous wounded, many did
not require removal to the hospital. ana it is
hoped that II comparatively small number will be
