HOW SHALL CONTRACTS FOR SUPPLIES BIB LET?
The question as to the validity OF the contracts
recently entered into by the outgoing Commits
sioners for general supplies for the current fiscal
year, appears to be In a fair way OF adjustment
To-day the Commissioners received letter from
Controller Lawrence, which said: "Referring to
morning. and with the last clause in your letter OF
the 18th inst, have TO say that am not aware OF
any law that requires contracts for supplies for
the District, such as stationery, fuel, hardware,
&c, to be awarded to the lowest bidders upon pro-
pssals which shall have been advertised for, but
propriety of proceeding in that manner
Section OF the act of June 11th,1S7S, providing
permanent form of government for the District OF
Columbia GUS stats, vol 90 p 105), prescrfbes the
method OF procedure i'm respect to certain works
therein described, but does not apply to contracts
for supplies like those before mentioned In the
cases referred to in my letter OF the 22d instant
the commissioners seem to have authority, should
they see ft to do so, to enter into new contracts
with the same parties, without new advertise
ments, prop oSalS or awards"
ILLEGAL CONTRACTS CANCELLED.
The Commissioners this afternoon issued the
following: ''ordered, The controller of the Treas
ury having decided that all contracts are illegal
II executed in advance OF the act making appro-
prations from which the contrct liabilities are to
be paid, 1t is therefore ordered that all contracts
for the fiscal year ending June 80 1883, executed
prior to July 1882, be, and are hereby cancelled
and that others be executed in conformity with
law"

How a Cow Should be Fed.

J.W., Martinsburg, West Va: The feed
ing of cow during the winter must ne
cessarily be chiefly upon dry fodder, as
hay, corn stalks, &c. Well cured corn
fodder is but little inferior to the best
hay, which is clover. Timothy hay is not
so good for milk as good corn fodder.
Blue grass and red top hay is better
than timothy and about as good as good
corn fodder that has been cut before it
has become dry or frosted Mixed
meadow hay with about one-half clover
is better still, and orchard grass and
clover in equal parts is yet better, while
well made hay from clover cut when in
blossom is the very best fodder for a
cow. The stalks of the small early kinds
of sweet corn cut when the corn is in the
state in which it is used for cooking or
canning is quite equal in value to the
best clover hay. But COW requires
some grain food to give quality and rich
ness to the milk. And this usually con-
sists of corn, oats, rye, and bran, or mid.
dlings A mixture of these is better
than any one, because with mixture one
can get precisely what is needed, when
any one of these will furnish only part.
Cotton-seed-meal is now very much used
for feeding cows, and it is most valuable
and should be added to whatever mix
ture is made. The result of years of ex-
perience with dairymen has established
corn-meal as the principal feeding sub
stance and coarse wheat middlings or rye
bran or both as the best addition to it.
A portion of cotton-seed- is then
added to complete it. The mixture is
best made by grinding it together with
the corn as follows: 100 pounds of. corn,
100 pounds of rye bran, 100 pounds OF
wheat middlings, and 100 pounds of cot
ton,seed-meal. By grinding these to-
gether the corn is much finer and the
whole are better mixed This makes an
excellent rich feed, of which quarts, or
10 pounds, daily will be high feeding for
COW. There will be then % pounds of
each OF the materials in the daily allow
ance, and more than this of the cotton
seed-meal might not be advisable, as it is
very rich. To feed this 5 pounds of hay
or corn-fodder cut in a fodder cutter into
chatt is wetted in box and quarts of
the mixed meal is added, and the whole
stirred and given for one meal. At noon
quarts of meal can be given dry with
a small quantity of dry hay or fod
der not cut. At night similar feed to
that OF the morning is given. The DAVIS
feeding will then be 10 pounds of meal
and about II pounds of hay. If less
meal is given, twice as much hay should
be substituted as the meal is iessened
Some other equivalent rations, which
may be found more CONVEX lie 1T and will
be nearly or quite as good are given

Fruits in Mexico.

A correspondent of the NeO YoyI
II16une, writing from Mexico, saws
My visits to various vineyards and
orchards showed that the fruits raised
here are superior in juiciness, flavor, and
sweetness to the California fruit that is
met with commonly in the Colorado
hotels, though not so extravagantly large
and prepossessing externally. The val
ley of the Rio Grande from below Socorro
nearly to FL Paso, with the exception of
certain desert sections, can with irrigation
be made available for fruit raising.
Climate and soil are perfectly adapted
Tor the purpose. The industry has been
hitherto chiefly carried on in the Dona
Ana, Las Cruces, and La Messilla val
leys, all lying in the Rio Grande valley,
and the results indicate It's rapid extern
SON. Already land is being taken up,
new vineyards and orchards set out and
old ones increased, and renewed attention
gwen to raising vegetables, especially the
colossal onions which are produced here.
Inc fruit raised in this valley is already
BEGINNING to drive California fruit from
'ne market in open competition in this
