We believe the dairyman should
economic all the fodder he raises up.
on the farm-strsw and corn fodder as
well as hay. He should study the prsc-
teal quality of each kind of food, and
learn to put those of different qualities
together. He should learn that grain,
as part OF fodder, is cheaper than hay,
and that in ningling little grain, such
as oates, wheat bran, oil meal, cotton
seeds meal and corn meat, with straw,
lie may make II better and cheaper than
hay. When the dairyman shall study
this question Of foods, he will raise
those rich in muscle, forming matter to
mix and feed with those composed
mostly Of carbonaceous. or heat produc.
ing matter. Clover has fuurtees or
eighteen per cent Of muscle forming
God, whilst straw has only two per
cent. Timothy hay has about ten per
cent; and it is easy to see that if you
mix half clover, (having eighteen per
cent. with half straw (aaving two per
cent? the mixture will average ten per
cent, of muscle forming matter, or will
be equal 10 timothy hay in this most de-
sirable element. Pass straw through a
straw cutter, aud busbel will weigh
five pounds. Now, two pounds Of
wheat bran. or middling, mixed with
this straw, will make the seven pounds
better than timothy hay; or twenty
five pounds of mi6dlings are mixed
with seventy five pounds of straw, the
100 pounds Of mixture will winter cows
Is well as good hay. The average cos,
Of the middlings for this 100 pounds of
mixture would be eighteen cents,
whilst the hay will average, over the
whole country 80 per ton. or fifty
cents per 100 pounds. 1t will thus be
seen that straw may be saved At con-
siderable profit 1t is better to mix corn

American Butte, Ahreaa.

During the past year American but
ter seems to have been gaining favor in
the English markets on account OF its
quality. On the 3ist of December,
American creamery butter was quoted
at 1872 shillings sterling per cwt., while
the best Irish is lput at 100 shillings.
and the best Danish, Kiel and Sweed-
ish at $50 shillings. At the same date
Dorest butter. which is the highest
priced butter selling in the London
market, was quoted at leo shillings.
And Dorset butter, it may belremsrked,
brings an extreme price, not only TN
account of its fine quality, but on Acc
count of its being near by, and reach.
ing market freshly made from day TO
dav. OF course in comparing prices,
due allowance must be made for extra
rates paid for butter produced SO near
the market that it will reach consn-
mers fresh from the churn; for such
butter, if well made, will always com
mand an extra price.

little interest in the matter. If the

Sentinel, seconded by the Sun, against
q citizen Of Cheyenne, are in keeping
with Hayford's former course Of mis-
representing our people. He has so
often maliciously attacked Cheyenne
and her citizens, that nothing that he
may say now can have the least in

newspapers to leave this chosen field to
