Nutriment In Grain and Hay.
From the Western Rural.

Corn is fat producing food. Its fat
giving element predominates so large
ly that it is not fitted for constant feed
ing, except to lay on fat at the cost Of
suffering loss to the general animal
system. It is hardly worth while to
take it into consideration as q nutri-
tlous food and is wholly unfit to feed
exclusively or in any great quantity to
colts. 1t is IN no sense what the de-
veloping system of a young animal
needs. The value Of a food for this
class ofanimals and for animals that
are heavily worked is in the:protien
they contain, and common corn con-
talns only from s to Il per cent, of that.
In thousand pounds, therefore, corn
may be fairly considered as possessing
a hundred pounds of nutriment. Of
course we cannot wholly throw away
the other elements as being useless.
but they are SO subordinate to the one
named in point Of nutrition that. in
noticing a subject ike the one under
consideration, 1t is not worth while to
attempt to determine their value. Oats
will average largeer IN protein than
corn Will, and are pre-eminently nutri-
tlous food, as every one of experience
knows. They vary very much in the
proportion Of their elem ants, but an
average lot of oats is worth double for
feed for horses and colts that corn is,

The Greatest Catch in New York.

oAoOhtlA
Probably the most graceful man IN
uniform on decoration day was Major
Paul Dana, only son of the editor of the
Sun. He is major of ordinance on the
staff of General Fitzgerald. He rode
with the aid at the head of the Second
Brigade. His thorough bred steed
pranced next to the curb, giving his
scabbard s. musical jingle. Major Dana
Is tall and distingue in appearance. His
uniforna was made by Poole, of Jersey
City. 1t fits him like tight silk Jersey.
His handsome face and manly proper
tions sent thrills OF admiration through
the hearts of the wondering maidens
who waved their handkerchief st him
rapturously. He is the best horseman
on the staff. Major Dana's physical
graces are exceeded only by his mental
endowments. He evidently tried 10
look severely warlike SIS the column be-
gan to move, but the smiles of the fair
quickly thswed him. Scheming moth
ers regard Major Dana as the greatest
catch of the season.

Feeding for Egg Production.
From the Country Gentiemaxe

It is not SO much the quantity as the
quality and variety of food that stimU-a
lates egg production. Proper feeding
must be kept up i tho best, results Sre
to be secured. If the fowls are ali
right, plenty of food may be given, but
ifnot they should be made so. Many
of the so-called Winter layers are not
go without proper food, composed of
variety which produces both flesh ara
albumen. A certain amount is neGess
sary to keep the organ in running or
der, and this means health and strength
to form the raw material into Eesh and
eggs. Fowls that can have warm.
sunny run In the middle of the day
where the ground is bare, generally do
the best. In such cases light Brahmas
do well. While all breeds may be
made, by judicious treatment, TO pro
duce eggs IN winter, some will adapt
themselves to more open quarters than
others, even getting water at the trough
with the other stock. But this will not
answer for SMl- although it is surprising
how hardy even those that are term
tender may be made by accustoming
them to cold weather by degrees. if a
lowed a warm. dry place to roost.
Fowls suffer more from dampness
than many are aware of, producing
colds and many rheumatic ailments
winch are almost always incurable. It
is useless to expend money for food if
the right course is not taken in the
start. Fowls must 60 into the Winter
IN good order, and this is seldom the
case II allowed to shift for themselves
all through the preceding winter.

It Makes a Differences.

The other day tramp found a real
female philanthropist in Detroit. She
felt very sorry for him and fed him, and
said she knew that he was the victim OF
misfortune, and there were tears in her
eyes as she gave him an old vest and
told him to return next day and get the
coat to match. He told her of losing
his family by steamboat explosion
of having his home taken away on a
mortgage-of being a wanderer before
whose eyes the lost wife and precious
children were ever appearing to keep
his heart big, and his courage down,
and if he had only remained five min
utes longer she would have wept out
right.
He went away thinking what soft
thing he had on this cold world. and q
day or two subsequently he returned for
the coat. The painters had been at
work and just finished the floor of the
veranda. As there was no board up the
tramp walked up the steps and marched
the whole length of the freshly painted
floor, and raped at the door, with his
mouth puckered up into the proper
mournful expression. 1t was opened
by the woman, but she had no smiles
or tears.
"Get off that paint. you good-for-
nothingr' she yelled-.'Get out O. here,
you villain
MADAM, that coat you"
I'm coat you. Look at your feet
look at that paint-look at the damage. "
He was still looking. holding up first
one foot and then the other, when the
handle of broom cracked across his
back and he felt obliged to slide.
II came for that coat" he remarked
as he stood on the grass.
You'll get prison coat if You don't
travel" she replied. "Here dog-here
dog-here dog: Take hold of him,
BOwser!'
The tramp moved on to the front. and
standing there with his hand on shade
tree he surveyed the house and mutter-
ed:

hell hath no fury like woman CLEANING
house? Well, I'd better stop here and
warn agents not to enter the shadder Of
