SUGAR AND MOLAssEs FOR STOCK
FEEDING.
(ProdNce Markets Review.)

The abolition of the duties gave an important
stimulus to the demand for Sugar, Treacle, and
Molasses for cattle-teeding, but the high price of
the latter has prevented its being used to the
extent which would otherwise nave been the
case. Indeed, the quantity of Molasses import
ed has been SO small, and the export demand
for Reiners' Treaolo SO large, that prices during
the past winter have been nearly 25 per cent.
above those Of 1884, in spite of the abolition
OF duty, and many farmers consequently found
it cheaper to use Sugar. If, however, Beet
Molasses, which can be procured at about half
the price at which the commonest Sugar is sold,
could be utilised, it is certain that an immense
quantity would be used for cattle feeding. The
objections to it have beer its disagreeable odOur
and taste, and it has been doubted whether cat
Tie would touch 1t, but we are informed that it
Is used IN nearly all parts of the Continent, and
!Ouno 70 answer perfectly. 1t is stated that in
husSIa TWO thirds Of the whole of the Beet
Molasses manufactured are employed for cattle
Ieeuing' and that it is extensively used in France
ana Germany. The refuse from the English
beetfactory at Levenham was also tried by
some of the farmers in the district, and found so
successful that since the works there have been
closed they have procured supplies from abroad.
There is therefore no reason why it should not
De generally used, and the low price at which it
can be obtained will probably induce many far
mers to give it a trial. We are told that if given
IN quantity both Beet and Raw Cane Molasses
cause an appearance of d~iarrhoea, but that they
are not in reality injurious. Treacle is said not
To-nsVe the same effect. We have it also on the
authority of an eminent French chemist that the
best way to administer the Beet Molasses is to
allow 1t to remain with the food used, say for
twenty-four hours, until a slight fermentation
mas set in. The objection made by farmers to
the use of Sugar and Treacle is that their
isnourers are if possible fonder of them than the
animals but this would certainly not be the
case with Beet Molasses which is exceedingly
nauseous to the human palate. The peculiar
favour iSdue to the salts contained in it, which
I'll said may take the place of the salt which
is frequently mixed with the food of young ami
mails. With reference to the great advantages
arising from the use of Sugar for cattle-feeding
purposes, We are indebted to Mr.. w. II. LAM
DER. OF Libbsrton Green, Newport, Salop, for
the following account Of his experience as to it's
effects amongst his own cattle. He says
bsst year the root crops we're very much
below the average in this neighbourhood-some
, 1875-07-07

worse and worse day by day. The losses
are estimated by The New York Price Cur
rent 10000 tons "a percentage OF crop" as
observed by the writer "Of no insignificant
moment"
This is, perhaps, the most serious as
pect of the Cuban question as yet receiv-
ed. The sacrifice of life which the strug-
gle entails shocked humanity but SO
long as the armies o Spain could find re-
Inducements and the Cubans Were still re-
solved to conquer or perish, there was
nothing to expect but an interminable
warfare. So long as the supplies Of sugar
were kept up, the commercial world
would not be very much disturbed at the
progress of the war, but when it begins to
effect production, as it was bound sooner
or later to do, q fresh interest is created,
and an entirely new influence will be
brought to bear upon the struggle. The
Spaniards have all along endeavoured to
let it appear that the rebellion was not of
such q formidable character as to Justify
any fears on the part of those who are anx-
ious about maintaining the autonomy and
compactness of the Spanish Empire, and
who, not without justice, consider the pos
session of Cuba as being of the most ma
terial consequence to enable the Mother
country to maintain her position among
the nations ofthe old world. The strong
est evidence they adduced, that the attempt
to render the island Independent of the
Imperial Sceptre was not worthy to be re-
garded. was that during a period of nearly
ten years it had failed to produce any
thing like an adverse interest on the pro-
ductive industry of the island. This argu-
ment was not without considerable weight
even with those who, sympathising with
the cause of the insurgents, were not like
ly to over-estimate the difficulties which
barred the way of immediate success.
Now that the supply of sugar begins to be
interrupted, the day of foreign interven-
ton in Cuba may be said to be at hand.

farmers having very few iudeed-owing to the
continued absence of rain during the summer.
Most of us were at a loss what to substitute,
as of course, It is imperative that the straw
should be converted into manure, more especial
~ by animals that are fattening, thereby en-
riching the soil, as this is entirely q feeding
district. In consequence of the shortness of
the root crop, my neighbours and myself were
induced to try Sugar as an article of food, on
a small scale, and we have no reason to regret
having done so, as WI find it a very valuable
addition, not only from its fattening properties
but also (which is very ~valuable) as a stimulus
to the consumption Of a large quantity of
filling up food, as we should call it, that is,
straw, &C., when only q limited quantity of
roots are used. | must tell you that we pulp
our roots, and cut up the straw, &C., mixing
all up together with the cake, corn, and Sugar
thus making every feed alike. The Sugar
is dissolved in warm water, and is sprinkled by
means Of a common watering-can, with a per-
forated rose over all the food, thus equally
distributing it. The quantity used per head per
day is about 2 lbs. / should not recommend
more than 3 lbs. I should say it is a very nice
thing for the stomach when used in moderation,
and no doubt assists materially in keeping the
system in proper order, especially when q great
deal of straw enters into the daily consumption
(straw l take to be very binding in its %nature),
which of course it mustdo with few roots, so
that Sugar supplies both with feeding and
aperient properties. With such a system Of
feeding as we are now adopting, Sugar and
linseed cake are just what we require. But in
any case / should consider Sugar, when you
can get it at 6l7 los: per ton, or somewhere
thereaboutr, at home, profitable investment
in the feeding of cattle. The proportions I am
pow giving my cattle per head, per diem, are:
Roots about 40 lbs, pulped small Oil-Cake, 5
lbs; meal Indian corn, wheat, and barley
mixed 7 lbs. Sugar, 9 lbs, straw, ad h6itum,
all cut to chaff: The whole mixed well together
and the Sugar applied as / have before stated.
We mix and prepare the food every second day,
of course putting in each animals allow
snce for two days-that is, double the
above quantities. Why we, cook as you
may term it, every second day, is, part
ly to economist labour and fuel (doing all
by steam power) and partly to give the food o
chance OF a little fermentation. / think l
never had animals looking happier or growing
better, and although my experience IN the use
of Sugar is limited at present, l AM fully of
opinion that it can be used with a good deal Of
profit and advantage, I have not used Sugar
for sheep, but l have no doubt but that it
would answer equally as WE'LL"
