Feed Versus Phosphate.


A ton of phosphate costs from $40 to
s45. When applied to a crop it may
or may not improve it. Its beneficial
effect, taking the average OF phos-
pilates, does not last more than a year.
Now. if this same amount of money
should be invested in linseed oil meal,
a half ton costing S14, and the bal
ance in buckwheat bran costing S1S a
ton. there would be 3, 444 pounds of the
latter to mix with the oil meal, which
would be a good proportion for feeding
any kind of stock for any purpose. My
line of experience and philosophy
teaches me that it is far better policy
for a farmer to buy extra feed and give
his stock the benefit of it, than to ex-
pend the same amount of money, or
any money. in purchasing at eNorbitant
prices chemical compounds about
which he really knows nothing. Two
tons of oil meal and bran will make a
profit on the stock which may be win
tered, by giving them just as much ex-
ira growth, without which the feed in
the form of fodder is really wasted; OK
cept the manure it may make. My
point is this: the farmer feeds out q
harmful of fodder to q lot of stock
which may weigh less, or no more, ID
the spring than they did in the fall.
What gain has he had on his harmful
| of fodder more than the manure which
il has made? This is the condition of
thousands of farmers who work hard
all summer. that their stock may Hre
through the winter. An exception may
be made, perhaps, in the case of mich
cows who are thus brought through to
the period when they may be made
profitable.
This period of profit can not begin,
as cows are usually fed, until after an
other period of recuperatiOn has been
reached, which varies from month to
two months, and sometimes longer, after
| they have been out to pasture. My
second point comes in right here.
Which is the wisest thing to do. to
leave the cows in the above condition,
with their manure lacking everything
except weakness, and to depend upon
going into the phosphate lottery to
make up its deficiency so that crops may
be raised, OF to invest the same money,
or more, in buying linseed oil meal and
bran to improve the condition OF the
stock, make a profitable growth, and
cause the cows to increase in flesh and
the flow of milk? There is no lottery in
this kind of investment, but in all eases,
every time and everywhere. it is a sensi-
BILE and profitable thing to do. 1t means
more freedom from disease, fewer abor-
tons, less of the abomination of ''hol-
low horn," ''tail SOAK" and other evil
dences of the want of vitality; less
.tailing up" of cows, less tottering
frames, with staring coats and hollow
eyes. 1t means glossy coats, bright,
full eyes, rounded forms, no sickness,
big udders, full pals, fat calves, lots OF
butter and a large pile of manure, rich
in plant food. The sequel is-inde-
pendence and home fertilizer which
has already paid for itself in milk and
flesh, which then costs nothing aud
which will show its good effects for
years-Col0a,et Curtis, in n. Y. 7ftb-

Bogus Disease.

"Wolf-in-the-tail " usually co-exists
with hollow-hOrn. and is equally
without foundation as cause of dis
ease In the tail of healthy COW the
homes, which are quite large at the root,
gradually diminish in size until they
frally disappear entirely, their place
being supplied by a rather soft, flexible
gristle. Durin. any serious internal
disease the circulation in the tail, as in
the other eytremitieS. is lessened, and
the part becomes relaxed. Sometimes
there is slight dropsical irritation,
which often makes it difficult for one
who handles the tail to convince him.

wanting. Their absence is then ac-
counted for by supposing that they have

OVERRIDING Cultivation.

A farmer tried the experiment last
year, of raking several plots. so that
the soil was as fine as possible, and
then sowing wheat. The effects of this
extra care were not evident in better
crop or larger heads. There is such a
thing as making a soil too powdery.
If it is at all heavy soil it will crust
over and bake, after the first hard rain,
like cement. We know a farmer who,
after getting his corn ground in good
order, invariably goes over it two OF
three times more with the expectation
of making it in better condition for the
growing of corn. With all his cultiva-
ton he never raises very large crop,
no more and frequently not as good as
dc his neighbors with good but not ex-
ira cultivation previous to planting.
Enough seems to be sufficient for all
practical purposes in such cases, and
that there can be too much cultivation
of the soil when either wet or dry is
evident to most practical farmers. II
is, however. not of frequent occurrence.
and few err in this direction. The
general rule is too little rather than too
much. Michigan Farmer.

Dangers from Impure Water.

Too much reliance is placed on the
sense of taste, sight and smell in deter
mining the character of drinking water.
1t is fact which has been repeatedly
illustrated that water may be odorleSS,
tasteless and colorless. and yet be full OF
danger to those who use it. The recent
outbreak of typhoid fever in Newburg,
n. Y, is an example, having been
caused by water which was clear and
without taste or smell. 1t is also fact
that even a chepical analysis sometimes
will fail to show dangerous contami-
nation of the water. and will always
fail to detect the specific poison if the
water is injected with discharges of an
infectious nature. 1t is therefore urged
that the source of the water supply
should be kept free from all possible
means of contamination by sewage. 1t
is only in the knowledge of perfect clean
illness that safety is guaranteed.
. The local European Volunteer Health
Commission in Alexandria, where the
cholera has been raging along back, is
unearthing. according to the Sanitary
Ne1Cs. some very unsanitary conditions
in that city. They have found large
native cemetery, underneath which runs
a canal, with which communicates a
well. the water of which is used to wash
dead bodies. A drinking fountain adj
joins this well, and the canal is the wa
ter supply of a crowded portion of the
town. In the mosques are stagnant
pools of water used for additions pre-
scribed by religious belief, the water in
which, being unchanged. gets indescrib-
ably foul. Such nuisances are difficult
to abate because of religious prejudices.
Is it any wonder, adds the NeUs. that
pestilential disease attacks such local
ity?-Scientifc AnaericdR.

A Kings Gift OF Camels.

Daniel E. Curran, the gentleman who
carried Damasucus, Mr.. CARROTS gift,
to King Humbert, brought the drOme-
diaries over as a return gift. King
Humbert has grand park of $4,000
acres, near Pisa, with all kinds of wild
animals in it. Among other animals
in the park are 40 camels. The ami
mails sent are from this drove. They
are four in number, two males and two
females, ranging from five to eight
years of age. The males have carried
freight, and Mr.. Curran worked them
before he left Leghorn. The females
are unbroken. ROndinello, male, and
Romeo, female, have taken the first
prize for two years at Milan. They are
magnificent animals, light buff in color,
about eight feet high, and weigh from
300 to ], 800 pounds each. Romeo has
bred some fine colts.
The other male is VandalO and the
other female is Calpa, the latter very
dark in color. There are no finer cam
els bred. They are valued at $500 each.
Dromedaries are divided into two classes,
| freight carriers and racers for carry
ing dispatches. These are racers, and
they can travel one hundred consecutive
miles in day without food or water.
beating a horse for distance in a certain
time For short distances they can
make about fifteen miles an hour. They
go without water in winter five and in
summer three days without incOnven-
fence. These, however, took plenty OF
food and water throughout the journey.
Mr.. Curran says he would not take
| another Damascus for 1900. Damas-
Gus, he says. is a baby and behaved like
a spoiled child during the entire trip.
He went crazy whenever Mr.. Curran
left him. In these fits he would tear
out the padding from his stall, and
would allow none but his keeper I'd
come near him. Mr.. Curran was worn
out with his constant attention to the
animal night and day. When the horse
was lowered from the ship in a box Mr..
Curran had to stay on top of the box to
quiet him. On the trip by rail to the
summer palace at Mona the horse was
wild at the numerous tunnels and had

Treasure TrOye.

Recently Judge Lawrence, First
Comptroller of the Treasury, received a
letter from Indiana containg $500 or
5000. The writer said he found he
money while chopping up some wood
in his yard, and inquired if it was good.
Judge Lawrence replied that it was, but
that the Government would keep it, as
the finder admitted it did not belong to
him. Another somewhat similar case
was that of young foreigner who
found $1,000 Government bond in
New York and forwarded it for pay
ment. The First Comptroller acknowl-
edged its receipt, but refused payment.
If the finder had forwarded the bond
without any statement as 10 how it
came into his possession it would have
been promptly paid. Judge Lawrence
SAYS he has no right TO even pay a re-
ward TO people who send in money or
bonds in this way. Under his ruling
the Government is entitled to all prop
erty or valuables that have no acknowl-
edged owner.-Tr0y Times.
