Cut at the right time and properly
cured there is no part of the corn
plant but what is nutritious. The
stalks are full of pith that is rich in
sugar; the shucks and fodder. while
not quite equal to the best hay, are
better than any other of the rough
feeds. Various estimates are made as
10 the value Of corn fodder and its
merits as compared to hay. Much
depends on the variety Of corn, the
season and the time Of cutting both
the fodder and the grass. For in
stance, some stacks cured in the usual
way contain about 40 per cent. only
of digestible matter; cut in early
tassel, 60 per cent. Timothy hay cut
in early blossom has been placed at 81
per cent, while timothy cut when too
ripe has given by analysis rs low as
40 per cent. Of digestible matter. Hon
est farmers there are who value a
ton of corn fodder properly cured
equal 10 a ton of best hay. Others
place the value at about two-thirds
that of hay.

JUDGES IN PoLITIcs. - When n
Judge is nominated for an important
political office he ought either to re.
sign his seat on the bench or decline
the nomination. The judiciary should
be kept scrupulously clear Of politics,
and every judge should be wholly be-
yond the reach of political influence.
No Judge can put himself in the hands
of politicians and solicit the votes Of
the people as the head of a party
without imminent danger of dragging
the judicial ermine that he wears into
political mire.
Judge Dixon, Of New Jersey, is an
honest man and an upright judge. In
his letter accepting the republican
nomination for Governor Of that State
he announces that he prefers to await
the result of the election before resign
ing his seat on the bench. This is
not the right thing to do. He ought
to have given up either the nomina-
ton or his judgeship.-[New York

This is midwinter in Australia,

under date Of August 8, IL winter il
can be called where snow is never seen
and ice a curiosity. The climate Of
Australia is as near perfection as can
be imagined. In summer the Their.
mometer sometimes rises TO 900, or
even 1902 Fahrenheit, but the atmos-
phere is so dry that il is never oppres-
sive. The only disagreeable features
10 be encountered are the hot winds
which sometimes blow from the inte-
rior. These winds seldom blow but a
few hours at a time, and then sudden
ly the winds blow from the opposite
quarter, causing what is here known
as a "southerly burster." This is al
most invariably followed by rain, and
then there are many days Of delight
ful weather No one ever complains
Of the weather, unless il be Of a long
drought, which withers vegetation
and sometimes is the cause Of suffer
ing and sometimes death to thousands
of sheep scattered over the great
plains in the interior of the country.

II is a bad plan to have breeding
SOW very fat, for when in this condit-

good mothers, and will generally select
a warm, dry place TO iarrow. 1t is
for this reason that there is so much
advantage in using full.blooded bears
of improved breeds on large, coarse
boned native sows. The progeny Sc
cures the good qualities from its sire
with better constitution and more
hardness than it could get from aful.-
blooded pedigree going back through
