FARM FooD.-Where we make one
load of manure now we ought to make at
least three, says AN exchange. These
are some of the multitude of ways: The
LIQUID waste is as valuable for manure
as the solid portions, and yet on seven
eigths of the farms it is-nearly all lost.
1t can be saved by storing supply of
muck or common loan under the stable
where the oxen and COWS and horses are
to stand, and putting a fresh coating
upon the pile often enough to keep it
from its foul odors or is much better
still-for few men can be trusted to
manage barn basement-make shed
or pit for the compost, and convey the
liquids away from the stable by suitable
drains, which should be provided in
every decent barn. One hundred loads
of saturated earth will be worth to any
farmer one hundred and fifty dollars put
ting it at the least. Put the absorbents
where they will do the most good. One
other thing, leaves of the forest are
wasted when they should be saved
They make excellent bedding, and most
excellent manure, and few days given
to transporting them from the woods,
where they are not wanted, to the barn.

Salt seems to be more necessary to
the health of sheep than to that of most
other domestic animals, though with
them all we think it is more necessary
than many farmers are apt to think. 1t
is said that in Spain, wherever sheep are
kept in the neighborhood of the rocksalt
hills, or sea salt, and have access to it,
they thrive better than in other situa-
tions and In France the same thing is
found to exist in the neighborhood of
the sea coast and the salt works of the
north. the sheep giving more and better
wool, and the mutton being more highly
esteemed than that from other localities.
Where it is given to them when at past
ure, the amount should be from half an
ounce to an ounce to each sheep daily /;
and it is well-known fact that sheep
never stray from On enclosure in which
salt and water are provided for them

coon nINTs ADoUr HORSES.

The horses stomach has capacity of
only sixteen quarts while that of an OK
has two hundred and fifty. In the in
testines this proportion is reversed. the
horse having capacity of one hundred
and ninety quarts against one hundred
of the OK. The OK and most other ami
mails have a gall bladder for the reten-
ton of part of the bile secreted during
digestion. The horse has none and the
bile flows directly into the intestines as
fast as secreted. This construction of
the digestive apparatus indicates that
the horse was formed to eat slowly and
digest continually bulky and innutrltiOus
food. When fed on hay it passes very
rapidly through the stomach into the
intestines.
The horse can eat but five pounds of
hay in an hour, which is charged, during
mastication, with four times its weight
of saliva. Now, the stomach, to digest
it we'll, will contain but about ten quarts.
and when the animal eats one third of
his daily rations, or seven pounds, in
one and one-half hours be has swallowed
at least two stomach's full of hay and
saliva, one of these having passed to the
intestines. Observation has shown that
the food is passed to the intestines by
the stomach in the order in which it Is
received. If we feed horse with six
quarts of oats. it will just fill his stom-
ach, and if, as soon as he finishes this
we feed him the above ration of seven
pounds of hay. he will eat sufficient in
three-quarters of an hour to have forced
the oats entirely out of his stomach into
his intestines.
AS it is the office of the stomach to
digest the heterogeneous parts of the feed
and as stomach full of oats contains
four or FIVE times as much Of these as
the same amount of hay, it is certain
that either the stomach must secrete the
gastric juice FIVE times as fast, which il
hardly possible or it must retain this
food FIVE times as long. By feeding the
oats first, it can be retained long enough
for the proper digestion of hay; conse
quently it seems logical, when feeding ;
concentrated food like oats, with a bulk.
one like hay, to feed the latter first
giving the grain the whole time between
the repasts to be digested.-1he Farm

ORIGIN OF THE FRACTIONAL
CURRENCY.

The origin of the fractional currency,
which has been superseded by fractional
silver, is not generally known. The ap-
pearance of this currency, which at first
was always spoken of as postal cur
rency," was due to the premium on spe-
Gle. In 1862 small change became
very scarce. Gold being up, and TAX
ing with it silver, these coins disappear
ed from circulation. Stockings were
brought out and the precious metals
found their way to their heels and toes.
1t was more than days search to find
five cent piece or any other small de-
nomination of that coin. People could
not find exchange for small transactions.
In buying dinner in the market,
change had to be taken in beets, cab
bage, potatoes and what not. Gen. Spin
ner was then treasurer of the United
States. He was constantly appealed to
from all quarters to do something to
supply the demand for small change.
He had no law under which he could
act, but after buying half dollars
worth of apples several times and re-
ceiving more or less different kinds of
produce he began to cast around for
substitute for small change. In his d.
lemma he bethought him of the postage
stamp. He sent down to the postoffice
department and purchased quantity of
stamps. He then ordered up package
of the paper upon which Government
securities were printed. He cut the
paper into various sizes. On the pieces
he pasted stamps to represent different
amounts. He thus initiated substi-
tute for fractional silver. This was not,
however, government transaction in
any sense. 1t could not be. General
Spinner distributed his improvised cur
rency among the clerks of the depart
ment. They they took it readily, and
the tradesfolk more readily. The idea
spread; the postage stamps, either de-
tached or pasted on piece of paper, be-
came the medium of small exchange.
1t was dubbed "postal currency" From
this General Spinner got his idea Of the
fractional currency, and went to Con-
gress with 1t. That body readily adopt
ed it, and but short time after Gen
eral Spinner had commenced FASTING OPP
erations law was on the statute book pro-
viding for the Issue of the fractional cur
rency which became so popular. The
fac-simile of postage stamps was put on
each piece of currency. and for long
time it was known as postal currency.
The intoduction of postal stamps as
money entailed considerable loss to those
who handled them. In a short time
they became so worn and dls6gured that
they would not take letter on its way
and were, therefore, worthless WASH

THREE GOOD LESSONS.

When [ was eleven years old (said
Mr.. S.. an eminent American merchant),
my grandfather had fine flock of sheep,
which were carefully tended during the
war of those times. was the shepherd
boy. and my business was to watch the
sheep i'll the fields. A boy who was
more fond of his book than the sheep
was sent with me, but left the work to
me, while he lay under the trees and
read. | did not like that, and finally
went to my grandfather and complained
of it. | shall never forget the kind
smile of the old gentleman as he said:
Never mind, Jonathan, my boy if
you watch the sheep you will have the
sheep"
"What does grandfather mean by
that ?" l said to my self. Il don't ex-
pect to have sheep" My desires were
moderate. | could not exactly make
out in my mind what it was. but he had
been to Congress in Washington's time ;
so concluded it was all right, and |
went back contentedly to the sheep.
After | got into the field | could not
keep his words out of my head. Then
thought of Sundays lesson; Thou hast
been faithful over few things; | will
make thee ruler over many things"
began to see through it. "Never you
Mind ---L-.---ol--.- --I~Iy h. ~

ward"

came to New York as a. clerk to the latt
Mr.. Il. A merchant from Ohio, whC
knew me, came to buy goods, and said
"Make yourself so useful that they can
not do without you" l took his mean
ing quicker than did that of my grand
father. Well, I'worked upon these two
ideas until Mr.. Ii. offered me partner
ship in the business. The first morning
after the partnership was made known
Mr.. G., the old tea merchant, called o
congratulate me, and he said /: "You ar
all right now. have only one word o
advice to give you. Be careful whom
you walk the streets with" That wa

The adoption of national law regu-
lating the transportation of livestock
from one part of the country to another,
as we'll as for governing the importations
of animals from abroad is recognized
necessity, and the next Congress should
not neglect to give the matter the atten-
ton which it deserves. The interests at
stake are altogether too great to allow
of triAing. The irresponsible Office
seeker may be able to make political
issue of the matter, but as the interests
of nearly every farmer and every con-
sumner of meats in the land will be served
by the passage and enforcement of a
suitable law there should be little OPP

The London Times publishes carefully
collated statistics which show that the
English wheat crop of 1879 is the worst
since lsl6-the yield being not more
than three-6fths of an average crop. TO
supply the actual needs of the people
for food. the Times estimates that Great
Britain must import of wheat, or its
equivalent in -four, during the harvest
year. from Sept. l. 1879, to Sept. l.,
1880. l.444. 100000 bushels, or $4,000
600 bushels more than last year, and
this would be equivalent to the impor-
tation of as many bushels as the whole
United Kingdom produced in the present
year
