VALUE OF WHEAT BRAN.

II has sometimes seemed strange to
me that wheat bran should be placed
SO high in the list for the value of its
manure, The explanation probably
is that most of the phosphate Gle
ments Of the wheat are found in the
hull, and phosphoric acid or phosphate
in any soluble shape is one of the
scarcest and dearest of manures. As
stock are not fed entirely for their ex-
crement this test is not an absolute
one of the relative values of different
kinds Of feed. Still | regard wheat
bran, either from country or city mills,
ms valuable feed for milch cows. Chem
istry informs us that the phosphates
which abound in bran are essential to
milk, and where cows are found chew
ing bones in old pastures, the fact is
often due TO lack of sufficient phos-
phate of lime in their food. In prac-
tice 1t Is generally profitable TO iced
new mich cows daily with bran, not
so much as substitute for other food,
but in addition thereto. The bran has
slightly laxative effect, and makes a
tolerable substitute for roots. In very
cold weather, and with some cows in
any weather, corn meal should be add
ed, particularly if the milk is intended
for butter Much, in fact, depends on
the COW. Some cows naturally go TO
beet, are always fat, and to these corn
meal would be less necessary. A lax
ative, milk-producing food like bran
will give better results than oily food,
like corn meal. | think such cows arc
liable, to certain extent, to transform
their fat into cream and butter, and
this, by the way, is the only process
Of making butter from beef suet which
is not fraud on the consumer The
great majority Of cows are always
too thin in flesh for profit A good
COW, in full flow of milk, always tends
to leanness, and even IL the milk is to
be sold, should be fed on food with
more fAt FORMING qualities tnan wiieul
bran. Wheat bran, as got from n mill
after taking grst to market, contains
much ofsanailc, and is heartierfo food than
that which comes from large Touring
establishments, where every dust Of
-four is carefully separated for barrel.
ling. | infer that this coarsest bran,
almost like sawdust IN feed possesses
the elements of bran intcnsifed-that

DANGER OF PRoTRAorED SLEEP.--
But here, as in 30 many other cases
the evil of deficiency has its counter
part in the evil of excess. Sleep pro,
tractcd beyond the need of repair, and
encroaching habitually upon the hours
of waking action, impairs moro or less
the functions of the brain, and with
them all the vital powers. This OBJ
servation is as old as the days Of Hip
pocrates and Arcteds, who sevcrally
and strongly comment upon il. The
sleep of infantcy, however, and that
of old age, do not come under this cat.
egory OF excess. These are natural
conditions, and to be dealt with as
such In illness, moreover, all ordina.
ry rule and measure OF sleep must be
put aside. Distinguishing II from
coma, there are very few cases in
which il is not an unequivocal good
and even in comatose state the brain

than from any artificial attempts "a
