GROWING YoUNG STooK. most
appropriate food for all kinds of young
stock is the mothers milk, AMI so soon as
the young things can be induced to eat,
other feed, grass, etc., they should be sup
phed with @ lound feed, shelled corn, hay,
grass and any other such feed, which being
fed with the dams milk, makes the most
satisfactory growth. The milk materially
aids digestion, and thus it is that the lar
ger quantity of food is consumed, which,
with the milk, makes the finest possible
growth of flesh, bone and muscle. 1t was
this milk and shelled corn that made the
famous big steer in Missouri out of the
scrub calf, and had that calf been good
high grade still better results would have
been obtained with the milk feed and care
of that calf. Good blood is important for
the Rest results. Never use any other than
full-blood sires should be the motto of
every farmer. Then, with good stock, the
iudIcious care and treatment from the very
first week of birth will bring satisfactory
results in dollars and cents.
The young farmer and stock raiser will
find that successful treatment OF young
animals to secure health, thrift and vigor
is the art that can hardly be too diligently
investigated. The money value of stock,
or the prout in raising stock, depends on
knowing how to do 1t economically. Eco
nomy does not consist in cheap food. but
in such as the animal, whatever its kind;
win readily assimllate, AMI will give the
best returns in desirable growth, If the
food is not right, no excess of quantity will
make up for its deficiency in quality. Wa
Ter is indispensable and should be pure;
impure and stagnant water ought not to be
tolerated. The first few months of an
ANIMALS life are the most important period
in Its existence TO Its owner. Ii it Is ne
elected and stunted, no subsequent treat
ment can make good the injury done ex-
cept at a cost that represents no Inconsider-
able extra sacrifice of time, care and money.

Mr.. Snodgrass was shoveling the
snow off his sidewalk the other morn
ing, and he was half undressed so he
could work quick. and was blowing
away in order to get out of the embar-
RAISING position before any of the neigh

full of Worlds and with mischievous
shining morning face, inquired:
''Say, boss, why didn't yer do dis

Snodgrass was hurrying and didn't
want to hesitate minute, fearing that
already two or three inquisitive female
neighbors were looking at him out of q
back window.

reflected. Perhaps this boy knew of

The Decay OF PASSION ana Thought IN Uui
Own Times,

1t is condition of mind and an atti-
tude of the moral powers which there is
much in our modern atmosphere that
combines to reproduce. I may not I'M
dertake here to draw the portrait of the
times in which we of to-day are living.
But as traveller may note the features
of landscape through which he is
passing, though he cannot describe with
accuracy its geological formation, so
may any serious observer detect the at
mosphere of the generation through
which he is living. For one I venture
to affirm that it is an atmosphere singu-
larly discharged Of high enthusiasts.
With what strange and puzzled feel
ing one reads, for instance, of the Eng
lish and American ardor sixty years
ago in the struggle of the Greeks for
liberty. Nobody flies to Tunis, to
Egypt, to the rescue Of the Jews in Rus
STA in our own generation. There is al
most no great ardor, in fact, about any
thing any more. It is not .good FORM
to be ardent or enthusiastic in any in
terest, however serious or lofty. The
first aim Of life is to get the CLINT of fire
out Of your eye, and the ring of deeper
feeling out of your voice. The only
place where vehemence and impassion-
ed expression are permissible any long,
or is in connection with purely dramatic
representations, and only there because
it is perfectly we'll understood that moth
ing serious is meant by it. The first
thing that many young persons are
taught in our days is to stifie all earnest
exhibitions Of feeling, and to affect a
languid and critical Indifference. And
the next is, on all occasions and in all
companies, and concerning all subjects,
no matter how far above them, to cult
vate mannerism of opinion which is
all, like Mr.. Whistler's pictures, in low
tone-without one flash OF warmth or
genuineness in it all-dry, pert, meager
ooh, how unalterably thin and shallow
and meagerD, but carefully disparag-
ing and utterly faithless.-H G. Potter:

All range cattle are branded with the
private mark of the owner. This is
chiefly done while they are calves, the
ownership of the young animal being
determined by the brand given its
mother. In Texas it was once legiti-
mate and universal practice to capture
any animal unmarked and affix your
own brand to it, no matter to whose
herd it really belonged so long as it was
one year old and unbranded. During
the year just following the breakup Of
the war, branding mavericks, = as
these young unmarked animals were
termed, was the most profitable bust
ness cattle man could follow. Their
attention was chiefly directed to females,
which were found in great abundance
ranging from one to five years old. The
queer title then bestowed upon these
unbranded animals 9Th elings e them
It is derived from an old Frenchman
named Mauvric, who began stock rails
ing in that section with very few head
of cattle, and in remarkably short
space of time had secured an enormous
y large herd. twas finally discovered
that he actually branded fifty head for
each COW he owned.

THE QUAIL EATER.

The quail-eating contest which re.
Gently occurred in New York-two
quails day for thirty consecutive days
created considerable interest through
out the country. A week ago lean,

Vine street restaurant, and said to the

went down for his roll.
:. How much will you bet can't do

II bate you two, dree, six, several
tollars."
Make it ten and I'll go you.
The German wanted to put up the
money, but, the sad-eyed man not hav.
ing the amount with him, q compro-
mise was fixed up ON the basis that the
sad-eyed party was to eat four quails a
day instead of two, each man being put
on his "honor' as to the stakes.

German, who was radiant over the i'm

the compromise.
"Any time-right now if you say so. -
$ Four broile gwail, right away,

cook.
The quails were produced, and the
sad-eyed man quickly disposed of them,
together with two cups of coffee and q
dish of French peas.
He called the next day and ate four
more. with several extra side-dishes.
Next day the same.
Same the next day.
People began to drop in to see the
sad-eyed man eat.

Our German friend was too much ex-

his clerk explained that the sad
eyed man called regularly for four days,
eating four quails each day, together
with ct ceteras, and on departing the
fourth day paused on the threshold,
bowed low to the proprietor, praised
his excellent cooking, said he would
take pleasure in recommending our
