THE FOOD OF ANIMALS

The following is the contents of a pa
per on the food of animals, which was
read by Mr.. Whitney at recent session
of the American Institute Farmers Club:
We estimate the value of food accord
ing to its proportion of heterogeneous or
albuminous substances, of oily or fatty
material and its starch or sugar The
first supplies the red flesh, the second the
greater part of the fat and sustains the
process of respiration. Sugar, starch or
oil-one or more of them-are common
in most kinds of cattle feed, and either
| will supply the placeOf the other. The
practical value of the feed may therefore
be estimated from the quantity of album
nous material in it, and the per centage
of either or all of the others. Taking
the statement of chemists who have care
fully investigated the subject, we find
that, disregarding minute fractions, lin
seed cake contains 272 per cent. of al
luminous matter and 123 per cent. of oil,
whereas turnips have but Il per cent. of
the former and 10 of l per cent. of the
latter; so that a. pounds of oil cake cor
tain as much or little more nu;rimeEt
than 100 turnips.
Cotton seed cake has a trife more than
% per cent. of albumInous substances and
8 per cent. of oil, and is, therefore,
worth nearly, but not quite, as much as
common Oil-cake. Field beans have 81
per cent. of slbumen and Il per cent. of
oil; but this deficiency of oil is made up
by large quantity of starch. Sunhower
seed has nearly I3 per cent. of albumen
and 80 per cent. of oil. The percentage
of oil is too great for profitable feeding,
providing it could be extracted and used
in the arts. Sunflower reed cake should
be very valuable article of cattle feed.
Tuning to the cereals, oats have little
more, and buckwheat a little less, than
10 per cent. of albuminous matter, the
former having nearly twice as much oil
as the latter. Wheat hss per cent. OF
albumen and about per cent. of oil.
OF fodder or forage, new hay contains
about 6 per cent of albumen, and is con-
seouently worth more than old hay,
which commonly has but per cent, the
rest being dissipa'ed by the slow pro-
gress of decay which always first attacks
the highly organized niIogl nized bodies.
Bean-sraw has ga per cent, and Is
consequently worth saving. Red clover
has 2 6 10 per cent. end white wheat
Nashville union and American. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1868-1875, 1871-01-27

straw not more than l 1-3 per cent. From
these figures we may readily estimate the
relative commercial value of the differ
ent kinds of feed. Practically, however,
there are other elements to be considered
in setting forth the real worth of any
kind of feed, chief among which is the
presence of phosphates required in
building up the bony system of
the animal. This is computed from
analysis of the ashes. For example, the
ash of wheat kernels contains 46-100th of
per cent of phosphoric acid, while the
ash of the straw has but q per cent.
The ash of oats gives soy per cent of
phosphoric acid, its straw per cent, and
that of the chaff only, l per cent The
ash of Ind:ln corn (which grain, by the
way, has also much oil, albumep, and
starch) shows still larger proportion of
phosphoric scid-nearly 81 per cent,
while that of its stalks and leaves (both
of these containing sugar and starch), has
8 per cent. Rice has more phosphoric
acid in it than any other grain, its ash
yielding 50 per cent and upward. This,
with the large quantity of starch in 1t,
makes rice one of the best articles of
human food, when used with any suitable
albuminous substance.
Carrots contain more phosphOric acid
than any other common root crop, the
ash containing twelve and one-eighth per
cent. A certain degree of bulk is neces-
sary to ensure most efficient digestion of
the food. By carefully mixing the more
concentrated with the lees nutritious, an
average may be obtained that will give
the best results. The proportions re-
CURED between the albuminous food and
the sugar, starch and oil, have never been
definitely settled, and indeed will vary
very much according to circumstances;
the colder the stable and the more neg
lected the cattle, the greater the quantity
of elements for fatforming and respira-
ton that will be needed. 1t must also be
remembered that the quality of the man
ure is directly dependent upon the nature
of the feed. Some English farmers have
held that with cattle fed on oil cake, the
increased value of the manure is from
one-third to one-hslf the original cost of
the cake

Farm AND GARDEN.
EXPERIENCE NECESSARY FOR A
FARMER.

EAE1uEhs
Many persons living in cities think that
If they fail in their business there, it is
only necessary to 60 to the country, pro-
cure small piece of land to be assured
of comfortable support There never
was greater mistake. If we were called
upon to specify the vocation that required
longer apprenticeship than any other,
We should most unhesitatingly name farm
ing. The variety of work, the diversity
of crops, all requiring different culture,
the Judgment tact and skill required TO
manage employees; the innumerable orders
to be given, and above all, the energy to
be infused into the business to make it
profitable, require an executive ability of
no ordinary character. And then the
judgment necessary to arrange the several
fields so as to come in regular succession;
the cheapest and best fences to be made;
the fertilizer to be used; the expenditures
TO be made for labor proportioned to the
prepondersnce of certain crops = all these
demand an intellect trained in the interest
of the farm. Indeed, farming to be sue
oessful must be carried on by one who has
q variety of knowledge. He must know
when to SOW and how to SOW, when to
reap and when 10 NOW, when to sell and
when to keep, when 10 discharge laborers
and when to hire them, the prices to be
paid and the amount OF work to expect.
He must be positive in his management
but not peevish. He must direct
30 as to secure the respect
of his employees, and he must be such a
fnancier as to have money enough on
hand for the successful prosecution of
his business, but not too much so as to
lose by its idleness. No employer can
manage laborer successfully who is
destitute of funds on pay day.
As q general rule, no one will succeed
in farming unless he has been reared on
the farm. He may study the theory; be
familiar with all the known laws pertsin-
ing to the growth of plants; be able to
analyze the soil; to demonstrate the ne
cessity of certain fertilizers; still, if he
is deficient in knowledge Of the practi-
cal details, he will certainly fail. To tell
when blowing is well done is as impor-
tant as to know what crop the land will
best produce. To know how to make a
ridge, or how TO lay off corn row, or
how to COW grain, or how TO plant or
when TO plant is knowledge quite as valu-
able as to know that soils everything lime
stone are usually rich, or that manures
containing ammonia are most valuable.

NEW CAPITOL OF WEST VIRGINIA. -
Charleston, Kanawha, has been chosen
as the capitol of West Virginia, and the
Governor and other executive officers
have removed thither. A correspondent
of the Wheeling hateJIigencer says
the foundation of the capitol
has been completed and bnck
work begun. The building will be very
fine when completed; but the writer
doubts whether the Legislature will hold
more than one session there. Charleston
is considered out of the world. There
is no telegraph, and the only mode of
communication at present is by steam
boats; but the Ohio and Chesapeake Rail-
road will soon be il operation.

PLANTING ORC8ARDS

Much judgment is required in the Sc
lection of site for an orchard. The
choice, when once made, is irrevocable
II possible, let it have an eastern or west
en exposure, good drainage, high eleya-
ton, and q soil quick AMI fresh, rather
than old and highly MANFRED. 4 very
stiff clay should, by all means, be avoided,
as the roots of the trees, being unable to
penetrate to any considerable depth, are
arrested and stunted in their growth,
and the vitality of the trees is impaired.
For peach trees, a northern aspect is
rather to be preferred to a southern oQe.
We give list of apples, pears and
peaches that experience has shown to be
suited to our climate and soil:
APPLES.
Summer VdrietieS-May, Early Har-
vest, Red Astrachan, Striped June, Hoss
Apple, Summer Queen, Williams Favor

Winter VarietieS-Ben Davis, Rsnle's
Jennett, Rome Beauty, Halls Seeding,
Vandevere, Green Cheese, Lady May,
Wine Sap, and the most prolific and best
keeper of them all, the Roger Williams,
or Matt Lyon.
The last named apple is one especially
suited to the condition of things in this
State. Il does not ripen until February,
and is, therefore, 70 temptation to the
orchard providers that infest the State.
We would be glad to see this apple come
into general use.
PEARS.
We have had good success with most
of the following varieties: Bartlett,

and others. In fact, we think there is no
State in America where the pear tree
flourishes so well, or bears so profusely,
as in the State Of Tennessee. Ten years
ago we sci out quite a number of dwsrfs,
and they w have been in bearing seven
years, ami sIc as thrifty as any trees We
