Taking Into Account the Weather.

Every stock-feeder knows that animals
consume far more feed in cold than in
mild wea her. They know, also, that in
windy weather animals suffer more from
cold than in still weather, although the
thermometer may mark a much lower
degree of cold in the latter than in the
former case.
A portion of the food of animals goes
to supply waste, and large part of this
waste is in the form of heat. This heat
is supplied by carbonaceous matter in
the provender, and if the food taken be
not sufficient to supply the demand it is
furnished by the fat of the body, stored
up for the purpose, and the animal
shrinks in weight. For this reason ami
mails kept on hay and straw alone, both
of which are deficient in starch, sugar,
gum and other forms of carbon, which,
in the animal is represented by fat, lose
weight constantly in the winter and, if
exposed to the inclemency of storms,
often come through SO poor that they
can scarcely stand. Some even die be-
fore they can recuperate on grass.
1t is evident, therefore, that it will not
pay the breeder and feeder to allow an
animal to lose flesh seriously. For if he
DO, it must be replaced and the same an
imal waste must he given off in increas-
ing the flesh the second time as was
previously done. Hence the economy in
keeping an animal thriving as uniformly
as possible during the whole period Of
growth, or until it be ready for the
butcher. This precept is now too gem
orally understood by intelligent stock
men to need elaboration.
1t is also pretty we'll known that ami
10 A11rinn poPio1o nf ovhonct 10 or
must have an extra supply of concen-
trated food to enable them to respond to
the extra strain upon their systems.
But it is not generally known that con-
stituents are called for in the one case
that are not essential in the other
At exhausting labor not only is heat
evolved and carried away, but the mus
Gle and nerve power is wasted; and,
therefore, the animal must be supplied
with food consisting largely of nitrogen
as we'll as carbon. These, oats, barley,
wheat, ETC., supply. But where the ami
! NAL is simply required to keep up the
supply of fat wasted through exposure
to cold Indian corn will furnish these
requisites most perfectly; since, besides
oil and starch, both forms of carbon, it
contains fair proportion of the flesh
forming elements. .s
To bring the whole down to the point
which we set out to elucidate: During
cold weather store animals, beside the
| usual amount of fodder necessary to
keep them in condition, under ordinary
circumstances, should have corn given
them daily; and this in proportion to
the severity of the weather and the ex-
posure they have to submit to; and, also,
it should be given them at the precise
time they need it; since, if they have to
draw upon the fat already stored up this
must again be accumulated.
Experiments carefully conducted show
that the human body is raised in tenn
perature from two to three degrees
Fahrt nheit after taking q meal. The
same law will work with animals. II

AT meeting of Spiritualists, held
in village not a great way from Scran-
ton, and not long since, one of the mem
bers Of 1.-THE circle" received message
from q friend in the unseen world to the
effect that he would certainly die upon a
certain day and hour, mentioning the
time with positiveness that to the cir
Gle and the gentleman referred to left no
room for doubt. The message also con-
veyed an admonition to the effect that ne
should, in anticipation of the event, i'm
mediately procure alife-insurance policy
for SIC, 1000 for the benefit of his family.
In obedience to the suggestion the policy
was secured, and upon the appointed day
and hour the man died. The wife, upon
applying to the company for the amount
named in the policy, was informed that
the policy was voided by reason of her
husbands having committed "moral
suicide"-that is, died because he thought
he must do SO in accordance with the
supposed message. The wife has now
brought suit against the company for the
amount of the policy.-Scranton (Pa)

Witchcraft.

THE supernatural machinery inter-
woven with the tragedy of Macbeth"
IS founded on superstitious belief
which was entertained during Shake
speare's lifetime. by all classes, both in
England and Scotland. In sermon
which Bishop Jewel preached before
Elizabeth, he beseeched her Grace to IN
derstand that witches and sorcerers had
marvelously increased within the realm,
and that through their malevolenoe her
Grace's subjects often pinned away even
unto death their color fading, their flesh
rotting, their speech denied and their
senses obscured. If any adversely, grief,
sickness, loss of children, of corn, cattle,
or other possessions, happened to any
one, witches were blamed for it. The
Queen herself, "being under excessive
anguish by pains of her teeth, insomuch
that she took no rest for divers nights"
a Mrs. der was accused of having
brought on the atfliction by conjuration
and witchcraft. If there was thunder
storm or a gale of wind one or two
witches we're seized and burned as apre-
ventive for the future. This popular
frenzy was much encouraged by the pub
location at Edinburgh, in 1897, of a work
entitled "Daemonologie," by no less an
author than King James himself.
This treatise owed it's origin, it
was said, to a discovery
which the King had made, that
when he went to Denmark, in 1890, there
was a conspiracy of zoe witches to
drown him on his return. A London
edition of the "Daemonologie" was
issued in 1908, the preface of which
speaks of 1.-THE fearful Astounding at this
time in this country of these detestable
slaves of the devil, the witches, or en-
chanters." The Legislature lent its
sanction to the belief; in a statute
against witches which was passed soon
after the ascension of James, and was
not repealed till 1895, it was enacted that
anyone who should practice any invoca
ton or conjuration of any evil or wicked
spirit; or who should take up any dead
man, woman, or child out of the grave,
or the skin, bone, or other part Of any
dead person, to be employed in any
manner of witchcraft, sorcery, charm, or
enchan'ment, whereby any person shall
be killed, destroyed, wasted, consumed,
pined, or famed in body, such offenders,
on being duly convicted, shall suffer
death. The persons suspected of witch
craft were for the most part old, lame,
bleareyed, and wrinkled women, who
led sullen and solitary lives.-Col1tns'
Shakespeare.

TREAT ALL WITH CIvnTY.-It has
become habit with some of our peo-
pie when strangers come to our town
to stare at them until they look them
out of eountenance, and when they
happen to pass a crowd, to sheer and
laugh, and make remarks as if they
were talking about them. This is
indeed, very unpleasant and morti-
flying to strangers. 1t is all wrong,
and we hope that all who do such
things, will stop it from this time on.
Such conduct gives strangers a bad
opinion Of our people and town. All
strangers should be treated with the
greatest civilty BY our citizens.
