the system gradually loses It's capa

continues to grow less, becoming ex-

the general revolution of the boly

FEEDING STRAw.-Straw, if pro-
perly managed, can be made to serve
a more profitable purpose than mere
littering. or to add bulk to the manure
pile. In England, and amongst the
English farmers in Canada. most of
the bullocks are fed and fattened on
straw. with roots and meal. No hay
is used, that being kept for the horses.
Thus larger number of stock can be
fed Straw cut, wetted, and sprlnkled

proportionately valuable in the order
in which they are placed. Peastrav
