but interesting article on Polydactile
Horses. Recent and Extinct In the
June number of The American Jour.
nal of Science and Arts, In which he
cites several curious instances ofsextra
digits in theft of . modern horse,
and shows that these reversions to an
older type are, far more numerous
tthan.is commonly supposed. As to
the ancestors Of these animals, says the
l'pfofeesor, there eau be no doubt.
America 10 the original home Of the
horse. and during the whole of Ter
tiary time this continent was occupied
with equine animals of many and va
rfous forms. Although all these be.
came extinct before tho discovery Of
this country, their abundant remains
mark out tho genealogy OF the horse
in an almost unbroken succession Of
forms. If we examine the remains Of
the oldest representative of the horse
in this country we shall ind that
these animals were all polydactyle,
and of small size. As the line was con-
tinued toward the present era there
was a general increase in size, and .
diminution in the size Of the toes, un-
til the present type of horse was pro.
duced. The original ancestor Of the
horse. not as yet discovered, undoubt-
edly had five toes ON each foot s. The
oldesti: member of the group, now
Known Is the Eohippus, which had
four well; developed toes and the ra-
;djments of another ON each fore foot,
and three toes behind. - This oanimal
was about as large as = fox, and its
RENAME are from the Coryphoden
beds near the base Of tho Eocene.s In
tho next higher diyisionrofl the Eocsne
another equine genus, Orohippus,
makes its appearance. It resemb1ed.
it's predecessor in aize. but had only.
four toes in siropt and three behind.
At the top of the Eocene s.third allied
genus has been found Tin Ethippus)l
that closely resembled. Orohippus in
diglts, but differed in its teeth. Near
Fthe base ofthe next formation, the mil
oceDe, another equine mammal, Meso-
hippns, occurs. This animal was about
as large as . sheep, and had three usa-.
bio toes. and the splint of another on
each fore foot, with but three toes be-
hind. at . somewhat higher, horizon
a nearly allied genus, Miohippps, has
Ebeenfound, which has the splint. .bone
of the outer or fifth digit reduced to .

BEET SUGAR.-Beet sugar has proved
success in Germany and France, and we
believe it is a settled thing for this country
as well. Though one or two concerns
have failed ia the business, we believe the
experimental stage has passed and it is
now to be regarded as one OF the growing
industries of our country.
To the farmer the value of the pulp is
an important consideration, and its value
for feeding may be such as to become an
item in determining on its manufacture,
and the raising of the crop. The Ameri-
can Cuttirator has an article on the SUBJ
iect, from which we clip the following
In Germany, where the beet sugar in
dustry is proving such grand success, in
every contract entered into by the farmer
for raising sugar beets it is stipulated that
the pulp shall be returned 10 him. There
the feeding value of this pulp has been de-
termined through the actual practical ex-
perience of years. In pressing the beets
in the sugar factory, about ten per cent of
Green-Mountain freeman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1844-1884, 1879-11-26

the sugar is removed, leaving from three
to five per cent still in the pulp, which is
far greater percentage of sugar than
ordinary beets contain, and. in fact, a
percentage as large as is profitable to feed
Practical experiments have proved that
the excess of sugar in cattle food is fed TO
waste, and that feeding material con-
tanning five per cent Of sugar is equally as
valuable for cattle as one holding ten or
twelve per cent.
Again, in this pressed pulp, so much
water is extracted that it takes five tons OF
raw beets to make one ton OF beet pulp;
hence it becomes highly concentrated
food. The vast weight of water removed
Is displaced by weight of nutritious
feeding material. European farmers as
sert that cattle eat the pulp greedily, and
that it produces a flow of milk equal TO
grass or fresh corn fodder. In Germany
it is fed 10 milch cows in the proportion of
twenty-five pounds pulp, fifteen pounds
chopped straw and one and one-half
pounds oil cake. To beef cattle. which it
is said to fatten rapidly, 1t is fed at the
rate of forty pounds pulp, thirty pounds

be substituted by corn meal and hay In
parts Of Europe the pulp is preserved
through the winter in sios or pits in the
ground. 1t will keep in cool sheds or
cellars; or better still, in trenches lightly
covered with straw and boards or other
covering material.
The Maine beet sugar company is now
producing large quantities of pressed
pulp, and having made arrangements for
its sale to the farmers of New England
through the Bowker fertilizer company
- Chatham street, Boston, every person
who desires may test the valuable feeding
properties of sugar-beet pulp. 1t is ad-
mitted on all sides that if this pulp proves
to be 4 desirable food for live stock, the
question Of the remunerative culture of
sugar beets by the farmers of New Eng
land and New York is a. once settled in
the affirmative So desirable q consum-
nation is devoutly prayed for by every
we'll wi>hcr Of progressive agriculture.
Our farming interest will do well to inves-
tigate through individual or cooperative
purchase ot limited quantities of this
sugar beet pulp its true feeding value as
given to mich COWS, beef cattle and swine
A favorable result would give great
impetus to the beet sugar Industry of New
England.
The Maine Farmer estimates that ut
least two thousand acres of sugar beets
were raised in that state this year.

CARE OF CALVES AND LAMEs-We
have begun already to winter our calves
and lambs. Oar experience teaches us
that it does not pay to let these Young
things run down. The calves are bfouoht
in every night and fed pint of shorts
each, with some hay to pick at. In the
morning they get another feeding of
shorts, when they are allowed to 20 with
the cows TO the pasture, unless a cold storm
should prevail, when they are KEEP, in. In
this way the calves grow all the time. and
come to the barn in the winter strouo and
vigorous to withstand the cold and rioors
OF the winter. The lambs are BEING wean.
cd in box stall where they are fed oats.
II gill apiece daily, with plenty of clover
hay. Two or three old sheep put with
them, will teach them TO eat the oats and
make them more conteuted, SO that they
will not get homesick and lose their anne
titles. 1t is an important thing to haddle
young animals or any animal SO that they
will not get homesick, for when in This
condition they will not thrive. Like mem.
bers of the human family, they want com.
pany. When alone they are FESTIVE. and
pine away. D. curtis. IN Rural Neig
