BARNUM. the editor of the "Toucf

BARNUM, the editor Of the ''Touch
o Libertine," recently accepted an in
vitation from conductor Shute to ride
on the pilot of the down train. Bar
mum goes into OBSTACLES over the ride,
andtthinks Shute Is the best fellow in
the world, which he is pretty good
boy; but there is one thing Barnum
don't know. You see the company
are thinking of getting new besd lights
and Charley Warren instructed Shute
to coax Barnum on to the pilot just to
see how available that red head could
be: made after the greenbaok bubble
has collapsed. We believe the COM
nany will agree to pay Barnum 40c. a
night, with the privilege of using his
superfuous gass for lighting the cars.
It's more than he's worth, but some
thing must be done for the poor kuss.

JIMMEY DooLITTLE, son of the

THE nomination of Barrows in the
Eighth District is the only thing the
greenbackers have done this summer
that evidences any sense. Barrows is
a strong man. He is giving the de-
mocracy a great deal of discomfort.
Barrows deserves the thanks of all
we'll disposed people, for his candidacy
insures the election Of Thad Pound.

summary of conclusions at switch he
had arrived On this subject, after many
years ct study sand practical expert
mente-
/. nles production of butten1zzs large
ly depeaIent lonGi,reed.
Q. There is asg5ructural Mnaf5 to the
produabian of batter to eacIaesaw.
8. That WheEas, cow is fed Ito this
limit, increased tGood cannot ;aearease
the pradEGt.
4. That thesstaperior cow has this
structural IEnait at a greater distance
from ordinary feed, and more ready to
respond tosstimuli than the inferior
cow.
5. That consequently the superior
cow is seldom fed to her limit, and as
a practical conclusion, increased tfesd
with superior lot Ct COWS will i'm
crease the but5er prehuct, but il ffedttQ
an inferior aottof COWS, waste can lee
sbut the result.
6. That this character of the food
faas some influence on the charac6er of
k0le butter, butt even f1ere breed in
fGlences more THAN focE.
Z. That there isno constant relation
hetween the ragssber product and che
Cheese product.
Is. That the esmeine retains a cas1-
stant percentage, and that this percea-
tage does not appear to respond to in
crease of food.
9. That the caseine appears to re-
mala constant witgasut regard to the
season.
10. That increase I'm the Quantity Of
milk 2s followed by asa INCREASE in the
total aenount Of caseisle.
II. That Insufficient feeg acts d.
rectly TO check the proportion of but
ter, and has a tendency to decrease
the caseEae Of the milk and s1bststute
albumen.
IL. The best practice of feeding is
to regulate the character Of tie food
by the character OF the animal fed
feeding superior cows nearer to the
limit OF their production than inferior
cows; feeding, if for butter, more con-
centrated and nutritious foods than for
cheese: feeding for cheese product sue
culent material which will inenaase
the quantity Of the milk yield.

Fattaning Turkeys.

While ducks, geese and chickens, es-
pecially the latter. can readily be fat
tened in confinement, and in fact, fat
ten more readily that way, turkeys sch
dom, if ever, do well when cooped up
for that purpose; and, in many cases,
they grow poorer daily, Instead Of
gaining in fat and flesh. We know of
a party who had an extra-fne bronze
yobbler, weighing some forty seven
pounds, and twenty-five dollars was of
fered for him if he would draw fifty
pounds by Christmas, then about three
weeks distant. He was at once put in
to a roomy enclosure-an old corn
crib-and fed literally on the best and
most wholesome food. But when he
was put on the scales, about four OF
five days before Christmas, he pulled
but thirty-tWO pounds. Had he been
fed outside, and given full liberty, we
believe he would have readily gained
the extra three pounds. instead of low
ering his weight SO materially.
The best way to fatten turkeys is to
keep them growing rapidly from the
start by feeding literally, often, and
at regular intervals. Let them have
their liberty, so they can get their ac-
customed feed Of bugs, worms and
grass, and give them, morning and
night, liberal feeds of mush, made by
boiling or scalding coarse corn-meal..
Keep, also trough in some convenient
place, in the shade, in which put daily
supplies of thick (clabbered milk
