Winter Feeding.

THERE is no doubt that tbs highly
detrimental to the milk yield Of q herd
for the cows to feed upon grass after it
has become thoroughly frost-bitten.
Such grass is also liable to become i'm
pacted in the cows stomach and prove
dangerous, if not fatal, to her. It is q
prolific source Of indigestion, and such
pasture should be avoided if possible.
This is the time to call upon the
late-sown fodder that should have been
cut before a severe frost touched it
and properly shocked. We say shocked,
for it cannot be safely housed, there
being such a quantity of water in it
there is no possibility of drying it all
out, so that in large masses it is sure to
heat and mould. For winter feeding,
hay is the universal diet, and il it 30
cut in just the nick Of time, while III its
bloom, and the weather has been favor
able for perfect curing, there are few
substitutes for hay; but as against the
average cured hay commend US to corn
fodder, If it is cut while there is q fair
proportion Of green in the blade. If
this fodder is cut in less than inch
lengths, wet and mixed with shorts or
q mixture of corn.meal and bran, there
is no better winter feed for a liberal
production Of milk. We have never
seen a cow that did not do we'll on it.
Cows undoubtedly do better on mixed
feed than when they are fed French
fashion, each article separate or in
courses. We are here treating only Of
cows in milk. Dry cows and springing
heifers may be wintered on refuse hay
fodder and straw. provided they receive
nourishment to keep in fair condition
: but dry cows in winter, when prices or;
dairy products are at their height,
should not be tolerated. Let your cows
be fresh and give them a generous diet,
with plenty OF heat-forming meal, with
good warm stables and then the milk
and butter account will be sure to bal
ance on the right side. We are glad to
learn that high winter-feeding is becom-
/ ing more popular with dairymen, and
we are anxious to encourage the move

THE MINES OF SILVER REEF.
s1Lyrn RrEr. Utah. March Q. lssl.

SILVER REEF, Utah, March 9, 1881.
Ed. RECORD: have been busily en-
gagged in examining the mines of this
wonderful sandstone formation, the ge-
ology of which has never been fully writ
ten. You might ask the reason why
Well, the truth is, there arc only few
men equal to the task, and those who
are, do not feel inclined that way.
With all due respect to Richard P.
Rothwell, when he wrote the prospectus
of the Stormont Company's property,
the mines were not developed, which ac-
counts, presume, for the prevaricating
style of;tho prospectus. Still he foretold
many things, one of which was the con-
tinuity of the ore-veins to the deep,
which, at that time, was considered a
difficult question to solve. But Mr..
Rothwell, knowing that the unerring
laws of Nature are the same in silver
Reef as in other places, framed his judg-
ment by her standard, and was not de-
ceived. He also stated that the Buck
eye reef "run under" the White reef,
which development. since then, has
proven. In no place can this be seen
better than in the California mine, owned
by the Christy Company, and which has
now attained depth of 2s4 feet from
the surface. Here the vein goes down
shows no sign of exhaustion-and beyond
the shadow of doubt, underlies the
| White reef. The work of prospecting
the mine in question is being vigorously
prosecuted and, if mistake not, ere the
first of June, the California will be second
velous wealth which lies hidden in the
Christy Companys group of mines is not
a chimera. They have never been taxed
to their full capacity, owing, no doubt, to
the insufficiency of the milling facilities.
Now, however, there is being added to
the mill Rowland Pulverizer which,
when in running order, can reduce fifty
tons of ore every twenty-four hours,
Everything in and around the mill de
notes that the company spared no ex
pense in the improvement of their prop
erty. They employ no cheap labor
neither do they favor reduction o.
wages, notwithstanding the reports O
the press to the contrary.
The Barbee & Walker mine is looking
we'll. The drift running south from tn
bottom of the Sd level is now in body
of ore which yields 1928 in silver to tn
ton. The north drift, from the sam
level, has been advanced % feet since m,
previous visit to the mine; the ore-veil
maintaining it's average witdh. Crosscut
ting from the bottom of winze No. 2 ha
commenced, which winze is down SO feet
below the 3D. level. There is not nue.
danger of the mine closing down for wan
of ore. The mill, in my opinion, vii

A very interesting operation was per-
formed in the Toronto General Hospital
at 2 o'clock on Saturday afternoon. It
consisted of amputation, by means of
electricity, of the left leg at the hip.
The patient, young man, being reduced
very much by the sloughing Of an open
wound on the outside of the leg, it was
desirable that he should lose as little
blood as possible. Having placed the
patient under the influence of ether, the
customary flaps were made, and then a
platinum wire, attached to the two poles
Of galvanic battery, was encircled round
the leg under the flaps. In moment
this wire was brought to a white heat,
and began to cut its way through the
limb By the great heat the ends of the
arteries were contracted, and only the
larger ones required to be tied. Many Of
the leading surgeons of the city and 9
large number of the students from both
schools were present.

There are mean men in this world.
The other day a heavy team, with safe,
drove up to building. A clothesline
was thrown from an upper window and
attached to the safe. 1t was cool day,
but crowd began to collect and brave
the weather to see the safe hoisted in.
They couldn't understand what the deuce
the man meant to do with the clothesline.
Bets were made on his hauling it up with
that. After it was fastened to the safe
hebegan to pull, and hauled the safe up,
hand over fist, and in two minutes took
it in at the window. The men in the
crowd stared at each other in blank
amazement. Then man who had won

Joaquin Miller wrote lately to the
Californian: "Dear Dave Cotton I hear
he is dead now. We just got acquainted
one night in Yreka while shooting at
each other" At first we were inclined
to doubt the statement and to put it
down as one of those little eccentric
statements with which Miller used to
amuse, charm and awe the unsophisticated
denizens Of London drawing-rooms. Then
we rscollect that when Joaquin was in
Yreka the late Davie Cotton was Sheriff
of that part of the county the probability
of his having at one time or other taken
shot at Miller seemed quite probable.
