Sorghum for Forage.

In his letter to MIR. Hedges about
sorghum for forage, which was
read before the Mississippi Valley
Cane Growers Association, Capt.
Turner said: The facts concerning
my little experiment with northern
cane as food for live stock, are as
follows:
Early in May, 1881, I purchased
from you (six hundred weight of
sorghum seed, 1 think you called
it Early Amber, and sowed it broad
cast on old timothy sod, plowed un-
der to depth of about eight inches
between the 18th of May and
Goth of the same month. From
the time of planting until the
eighth of August, when cut the
crop the rain fall in st. Louis coun-
ty was almost imperceptable. Not
withstanding the dry season the
cane grew finely and maintained a
rich green color. The crop was
cut with an ordinary Woods now
er just after the cane had tasseled,
and after lying upon the ground
for four or five days had it bound
in larger bundles and stacked it as
l would have done wheat or oats.
About the middle of November 1
hauled one stack into my barn
and commenced feeding it to my
stock, consisting of COWS, horses
Shetland ponies and sheep; they
all ate it ravenously, and L have
never seen them in better health or
looking better at this season. Ny
COWS in milk, and work horses are
fed grain also; but the ether stock
have ,subsisted upon cane fodder
alone since the middle of Novem-
Der.
Prior to the middle of November
had been feeding corn fodder to
my mich cows with two feeds of
corn and bran per day-upon sub
shutting cane for fodder an increase
of about 20 per cent in my butter
product was at once perceptible. 1
planted about ten acres of corn for
fodder about the same time the
seed was planted and upon the
same character ofsoil. The former
grew only about three feet high
and dwindled to about nothing
under the combined effects of
drought and heat, when, as has
been heretofore said, the cane -four
shed and produced a large crop.
Both cane and corn were sowed
broadcast. and covered with an ordi-
nary farm harrow.
In repeating the experiment 1
should prefer TO use a wheat drill |
IS l am satisfied the crop would be
by this method.
The cane came out of the stack |

ted States ship Rodgers, bill has
been introduced into congress ask
ing for the appropriation of $3.50
900 to start a new expedition. For
two years the search for north
west passage has been as fascina-
ting and fruitless as that OF the
Spaniards for the fountain of per
petual youth. The polar ocean has
been the gulf in which hundreds OF
vessels have gone down crushed in
ice foes, while thousands of as
brave men as ever lived have lost
their lives in the frosts and dark
ness of the polar seas, and yet as
little is known of the pole as was
known when the search was begun.
Men have penetrated to within 400
miles of the pole, but what has
been gained by it? Nothing be-
yond the fact that the remaining
distance was practically impassa-
bic, and suppose one was to reach
the pole itself what would be ac-
complished beyond the satisfaction
of the achievement? Nothing of
any practical importance or value
to either science or commerce. But
it is probable these expeditions will
continue, Notwithstanding the
tragedies like those attending the
ventures of Franklin and DeLong.
If men choose to risk their lives and
health in fruitless search after the
nnattainable, there is nothing that
can prevent them doing so; but it
is time that our our government
ceased to openit treasury to these
brave but reckless Adventures.

An EiRht Ounce Baby.

The story comes from Candida
ria, Nevada, that the smallest ba-
by in the world had been born in
that camp. The father is miner
in the employ of the Northern
Belle Company and weighs 100
pounds, and the mother is a stout
healthy woman, weighing perhaps
16O pounds. The child Is male,
perfectly formed, but upon its
birth only weighed eight ounces.
Its face is about the size of horse
chestnut, and the size of its legs
can be imagined when it is stated
that a ring worn upon the little
finger of its mother was easily
pulled over its foot nearly up to the
knee. 1t is the opinion of the at
tending physician that the child
will live and prosper in good health,
Notwithstanding its diminutive pro
portions.

Love-Makin1.

False modesty frequently deters
women from doing their share of
love-making From fear of being
considered over-bold, they are apt
to be over shy, and thus discour-
age attentions which they secretly
desire. Women are as well enti-
tied as men to express their love,
only each sex has its own way
man with words and women with
manners. The one is quite express
sive as the other; and in either case
the more delicately expressed the
better. A woman who does not ex-
press her attachment by her m an
ner can not expect to be loved. 1t
is altogether "a foolish because it
a hypocritical practice, that of pre-
tending to be Indifferent to those
whom they really and legitimately
love. OF course she ought to con-
ceal excess, because it is a weak
ness we want to cure; bat prefer
ence is a legitimate feeling which
may be always mOdestly manifested

LADIES' COLUMN.
What is Homo to Woman.

Home is more to a woman than
to man. 1t is her temple. She is
its goddess, its priestess-but of
tener its janitor. A man doesn't
look so longingly back at the old
home, though it never cost him a
cent, and his parents bought all his
clothes and sent him to college. A
man likes his home when he gets
acquainted in it, because there
his stupidity passes for the pro-
foundest wisdom. His jokes are all
laughed at Though it needs a CLOS
sary to get at their meaning) if he
only indicates the laughing place.
When a man dies he is wept for at
home, but the cold world moves
along as if nothing had happened.
Fond lovers come to his graveyard
even, wear his tombstone smooth
sitting on it, contract bad poetry
and worse rheumatism and burden
the air with their fabial confection-
cry. l have heard that there were
skeletons in many homes. They
never get there unless they are
brought.

Boiling Water in a Sheet of Paper

o@444AB w dteF IL q SoeeL OF Sdpsr.
Nature is publishing a series of
interesting articles on ''Physics
Without Apparatus" In the lat
est number are given experiments
for boiling water and melting lead
in piece of paper. Take a piece
OF paper and fold it up, as school
boys do into a square box without a
lid. Hang this up to a walking
stick by four threads, and support
the stick upon books or other CON
venient props. Then lamp or ia
per must be placed under this dain-
ty cauldron. In a few minutes the
water will boil. The only fear
is least the threads should catch
fire and let the water spill into the
lamp and over the table. The
fla me should not be too large.
The paper does not burn because it
is wet; and even if it resisted the
wet it still would not burn through,
because the heat impaired to it on
one side by the flame would be
very rapidly conducted away on
the other by the water. An exper-
iment of similar nature, but per-
haps even more striking, is as fol.
lows: "Twist up the edges of a
common playing card, or other bit
of cardboard, so as to fashion it in
to light tray. On this tray place
a layer of fine shot or bits of lead,
and heat it over the flame of lamp.
The lead will melt but the card will
not burn. 1t may be charred a lit
tie round the edges, but Immediate
ly below the lead it will not be
burned; for here again the lead
conducts off the heat on one side as
it is supplied on the other.

Curious Facts About Fish.

Much interest is now being taken
by scientists in regard to the habits,
instincts, and emotions of fishes.
Naturalists have generally accepted
Cuvier's view, that the existence of
fishes is a silent, emotionless and
joyless one; but recent observa-
tions tend to show that many fishes
emit vocal sounds, and that they
are susceptible of special emotions,
particularly such as regard for
their young, attachment among the
sexes and for locality. Among
homogeneous fishes there is often
seen decided evidence of watch
fulness over their Young, in which
the males not unfrequently act an
important part. Among nest
building fishes the male often pre-
pares the nest. Among some who
do not build the nest the eggs are
carried about in the cheek hollows
of the male. Cases have been no
ticed where male fishes have re-
manned in the same spot in the riv-
er from which the female had been
taken. A case is noted where. af-
ter a pair had been separated,
both appeared miserable and
seemed nigh unto death, but on be
ing united again both became hap
py. In fish battles IL is sometimes
noticed that the conquerer as
sumes brilliant hues, while the de !
teated one sneaks off with faded |
colors, the change evidently hav-
ing been brought about by emotion
al feelings. There are certain |
classes of fish that are capable of
kind of organization for acting in
concert for common defence or to
attack a common enemy. The re-
markable success which has of late
attended the breeding of fish has
shown that as a matter of econo-
my an acre of good water is worth
more 10 farmer than an acre of
the best arabic land. The subject.
in all it's bearings, is one that de
serves even more attention than it
has hitherto received Exchange.
