SOILING CATTLE

Ifthose who practice soiling cattle and
other siock, would give their experience
it would have tendercy to extend the
practice, and benefit many who have but
little pasture and over stock of animals.
Twenty years ago l had I2O yearling
mules and few horses. turned them
on rich clover field, of IL acres, in the
month Of May. The clover being very
tall, they ran over it and destroyed so
much with their sharp hoofs that but lit
tie benefit was had of the field, in conse-
quence Of their restless disposition. The
. next Nay | enclosed, with a very high
fence, ! I acres of rolling ground, with a
well Of water in it, aud put the same
mules and horses-cut she same field
of clover, and hauled the fresh grass to
them every day, and fed it from racks
and box troughs, 3 by 5 feet. The re-
sult was, thas the field fed them as much
as they could eat all summer. As soon
as the first crop was cut, tho second was
ireadyto begin on. The second crop
caused them to slobber. To prcven;
that, | had hauled every day somO horse
weedss which they eat with avidity in
siinct. suppose, te aches them it's effects.
l still keep soiling upon a small scale,
with better advantages for mix orchard
grass with cleyer. They go well .Ogeth-

AGRICULTURAL.
FoppERING OATILR,

Isee discussion is being held in
your paper, as to whether catlIe should
be fojdered two or four times a day
Without pretending to know anything
about It BY critical experiment, il occurs
to me that doctors who write on hygiene
generally recommend that humans
should cat only three times day. But
cattle have much larger stomachs in pro-
portion than men, into which they re-
.ceive large quantity OF coarse food,
and then lay down and chew and digest
il at leisure, IF camel does not need
to drink as often as man, it seems to.
me an OK should not mead feeding a.
often, provided he has full suficiency
each time. But perhaps this has no
bearing on the question in and ecoDomi-
cal view. u III.

How MUcH PoRK FROM BUsmEL OF
CoRN.-A correspondent, Of the Prairie
Farmer answers this question as follows /:
A series of carefully conducted exper-
iments have established the following
rule upon this subject; A bushel Of good
raw, unground dry corn fed to a mid
ding good breed, IN comfortable quar-
ters without much sun, and not allowed
% root, and before cold~weath, will pro.
duce 10 pounds of pork, and if the breed
Is very good I5. The same amount of
fermented corn meal. one half more, and
It cooked also, about three fourths more
than the first named, hence it is easy TO
fud how much pork should bring to
correspond with the price Of corn. Take
for instance, raw corn, the most common
way it ia fed ; pork at fye cents ptr
pound is to corn at fifty cents per bush
ell, and so on above, or below. in The
same ratio. The good Of our farms and
pockets demand thst We sell our oats and
corn in beef, mutton, pork, butter, cheese
and wool.

some, but il q small furnace and little
charcoal are at hand, it is but the work
of few minutes, or at least a boy can

SHEEP WASHING,

Messrs. Editors-Therc seems to be q
point in sheep or wool-ology, in which
doctors in that department cannot agree
Some contend that washing the sheep is
very injurious to the animal, and much
loss occasioned thereby besides being
nnfavorable to the health of those who
do the uork. On the ensuing April it
will be ffty-three years since | engaged
in the sheep business, and out of that
timeI have washed my sheep in running
water forty-nine times. Ny flock in the
aggregate, has amounted to about five
hundred in all this time I have no re-
collection of ever having lost but three
sheep --one was drowned, and two
otherwise injured so that they died.
am inclined ty believe that onc-tenth
OF one per cent, would cover all the
losses I ever sustained By washing my
sheep. For all Thea trouble connected

Relief Meeting.

As will be seen by reference to the
published proceedings of the meeting held
on Monday. nothing definite was arrived
at. A large crowd assembled on the &C.
casion, and many speeches were made
A general interest was manifested, and
every expression Of sympathy INDUCED
for the debtor class Of the community
Meetings with similar purpose have been
held in number Of counties 10 The State
and it is very evident that majority OF
the people are in favor Of adopting some
measures which will bring relief to the
masses, who are now being sued by hun
dreds in every court. Whether these de-
monstrations will avail aught is to be
seen, and time alone will determine. The
Governor certainly will heed these APP
peals, and take some step to ameliorate
the condition of the people. As we have
observed in former issues, we 60 with the
people, and will heartily indorse any
practical plan which may be devised to
afford the remedy. We are satisfied that
everything will be done by Governor
Humphreys. consistent with his power.
patriotism, and the wants Of the State.
ltappears TO Us that an appraisement law
could be framed upon the plan Of those
adopted by different States in 1910, and
which were held to be constitutional by the
Supreme Court OF the United States. We
remember the case on the subject, and
believe it went up from Indiana or Illinois
And after the decision was made sustain
ing the appraisement laws, business men
took all their notes "without any relief
whatever from the valuation or appraise>
ment laws" We remember. also, that
the Supreme Court of Indiana held the
law to be constitutional. These laws were
passed for the relief Of the people at that
time, and present the same questions that
are now engaging the attention of our
people and the courts Of the country
