MANURIAL VALUES OF FODDER Ma
TERIALs.-From the careful and elaborate
experiment made by Sam'l l.. Dana it ap.
pears that an average COW, kept on Il dairy
ration of twenty-four pounds of hay and
y 10 pounds of potatoes, will yield, in
addition to her liquid excavations, ovel
$1,000 lbs. of dung per year containing
1883 lbs. of ammonia which, with other in
cluded chemical elements, amount in value
to over $40. BY the same authority it al
so appears that the liquid manure amount,
to over 1000 It's. year, and surpasses the
solid dung in value in the ratio of 2 to |.
This makes the total value of the manure
more than equal to the entire cost of feed
ing. He further states that L" 100 lbs. of
cattle urine afford about s lbs. of the most
powerful salts ever used by farmers" This
is equivalent TO about GOO lbs II year OF
the salts referred to, for each animal.
1t is estimated by Prof. johnson that Il
ton Of clover contains potash, phosphoriC
acid and nitrogen sufficient to make il
worth $l7.57 for manure; while n ton Of
bran Or of peas is worth, by the same
standard, over S22. And some other feed,
have still higher manurial value. In
the above experiment Of Mr.. Dana the
daily ration of hay was equivalent to 4 IA
tons year. Now, if this ration had been
clover instead of hay the manurial value
per year would have been over $72, nc
cording to the authority of Prof. johnson
These conclusions, resulting as they dc
from both practical and chemical investi
cation, are further confirmed by the ex
perience of successful farmers.
Josiah Quincy, Jr., has found that
good COW, when kept on the soiling system
yields 3 1-2 cords of solid dung per annum
hch, by the addition of muck, NAV be
more than double, both in quantity anC
value and that the liquid manure wher
absorbed with muck is worth still more
than the solid, making an aggregate o
more than fifteen cords, worth from IS t.
So cord. And further itappears that TIN
total manure from each COW, when thu.
treated, is equivalent on II yearly average
TO the value of the milk.
Joseph Harris who probable knows a
much about manure and more about pig,
than most farmers, has estimated that he
got Al 3-4 cts. worth of manure per weel
from pigs that were fed at a cost of 81 l..
cts. week, thus showing that the value o
the manure covered the whole cost O
feeding, and lefta net margin of profit be
sides.-Conrad Wilson, in Ne,O Engiant

CHINESE LITERATURE Those who
think that the making of books is mainly
confined to the Caucasian race will be sur
prised to learn that there are now in the
British Museum, according to a recent cat
alogue, no less than 10000 Chinese vol
umes, divided into nearly 10000 works.
There are also three other libraries in Lon
don containing many Chinese works, so
that it is not likely that Chinese scholars
in England will suffer for want of literary
supplies. These, however, are but a drop
in the bucket to what can be found in
China, if need be. OF what are called the
classics in Chinese literature alone, mod
ern scholar is said to have collected 10000
volumes. One of the encyclopedias called
" The Imperial and Authentic Collection
of Ancient and Modern Literature, print
ed about A. d. 1918, comprises 6l09 vol
umes. The Chinese have been making
dictionaries for seventeen centuries, and
may well be supposed to have arrived at a
high degree of proficiency. A general in
deX finished $50 years ago, is bound in 10
thick volumes. Even the prolific German
writer's are nowhere compared with the
Chinese.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal. Feb. 9th.
Abundant rains have now fallen through
out most parts of this state. Feed is he
coming pretty good. Most of tn stocI
now living will be saved. The loss o
stock the past yenr from lack of feed has
been enormous. The wool dealers say that
fully one-IIalf of the sheep that were in tho
central and southern part of this state have
died from starvation. The loss is estima
ted ut about three millions Of sheep
My own loss has been about 10000 head
This is noiall of the loss, as it has costto say,
those which are alive, (about $1,000 head,
nearly rs much as they are worth. There
was IN entire loss in the grain crop il
many places by reason of the drought Oh
n field of 1000 acres of land, sowcd will
wheat, on San joaquin Ranch, there was
not enough to keep sixteen sheep.
The roses, geraniums, verbenas, almon(
trees, &C., are in full bloom.

Read at the meeting of the Board Of Agriculture
at Johnson.
There has been much said and written
about which is the best breed of cattle,
and comparatively little of the Importance
of an abundance of good food which is
adapted TO the wants of the ANIMAL when,
in fact,it depends much more on what and
how the COW is fed, than to which breed
she belongs, for any COW poorly fed will
not yield much profit, when if She is we'll
fed and does not prove good mixer will
soon be fit for the butcher.
The food Of animals is composed Of
several distinct ingredients each of which
performs IL distinct part of the economy OF
life, and cannot be substituted for any
other, Some portions of food are appro-
priated to build up flesh and restore its
waste, and are designated by the term al

The amount of better material we have
on hand, makes it unnecessary for us tt
say anything this week. In the extract
from Mr.. Patterson's letter, it will be seer
that California farming has its dark spots
and is not all profit, but its enormous
receipts are largely drawn down by losse'
on an equal scale.
The certainty of crops, the ease of mar
keting, the character of the population
leave the farmers of Vermont little
cause for unflvorable comparisons will
am o'ber part of our country.

FALLING STARS.
A star falls in the sky;
They say birth
Is registered on earth,
To live and die.
Oh start in thy descent
Does thou bring love
From worlds above,
Or discomfort
Starfalling from on high,
Bringing to earth
Celestial birth.
Dost thou not sigh
So many stars must fall
Some so astray,
We only pray,
God liEd them all

There is something better that young

Prof. Chandler, president of the New
York board of health, disputes the COM
mon notion that the cheaper liquors are
composed of harmful ingredients which
are not found in the "pure." The chem
list, he says, cannot tell the difference be-
tween the genuine liquors and the imita-
ton. 1t is the alcohol in each case which
does the mischief.
