If farmers generally would weigh the
hay that they feed to horses daily, they
would soon learn that less than is given
would keep them in better condition than
under present practice. This is especial
ly true where clover hay is the staple
feed. Too much clover hay is hurtful to
horses intended for road work. They will
eat so much clover hay that it is impossi-
BILE for them to travel last without injury
Timothy is less injurious, partly because
horses will not eat so much of it.
The Live Stock Monthly gives the fol-
lowing in regard TO the pedigree of cows
Pedigree is a very essential element in the
value of cows. But it is also true and no
less important to know that grade animals
in well-managed dairy can be made. as
rule, quite as productive as thorough
breds, and often more so. Yet this does
not at all imply that the latter can be dis
pensed with, for we can not have good
quality OF grades without good strain of
blood to start from. While it is conceded
that pedigree is one of the factors in the
value of good COW, it is not by any
means the only factor. Maximum results
in the dairy are not the sole outcome of
any single condition. They depend not
merely on the capacity and breed of the
COW. but also and equally on the intelli-
gence and good management of the own
er; and what is equally true. but seldom
considered, even the capacity of the cow is
itself to a large extent the product of hui
man skill

What we Eat.

The Scientific American assumes that
nearly all the sugars and syrups we use are
adulterated with glucose. Very little of
pure sugar is placed on the market. But
in making this statement, the american
says that there is no harm in it. so far as
its use is concerned. 1t is q cheat. it is
true, because we do not get what we think
we are paying for. There are two kinds of
genuine sugar-that made from the cane
and that from the grape. The grape sugar
sold as genuine, however, is thus de-
scrlDed: All the glucose and grape sugars
ON the market are made by the action of
sulphuric acid (oil of vitriol) on some
vegetable material. Intllis country starch
is used chiefly, it being the cheapest and
most convenient, but linen rags are equally
servlceable and produce an equally pure
and excellent sugar. This, SAYS the Amer
scan,i one ofthe wonders of chemical com
blnation-as much wonder to the most
thorough chemist as to any one else. He
sees the work grow under his fingers, and
what is done he does not know he knows
nothing but the result. He boils starch
with sulphuric acid and water. The mix
ture, instead of being very sour, is sweet
to certain extent, that is to say, sugar is
there, but the acid is also there, for the
acid has changed the starch to sugar and
yethas itself not been affected in the least.
He throws in powdered chalk, which unites
with the acid and settling to the bottom
leaves beautiful, clear, sweet solution of
grape sugar. The acid is gone, the starch
is gone, aud pure, harmless sugar remains.
The trnth is. if thepeople only knew.,what
they consumed in their tea coffee, sugar.
molasses, vinegar, spices, etc., it would
make them miserable. Where ignorance
is bliss tits folly to .be,wise.

Archbishop Gibbon.

A dispatch from Rome, dated Dec. "A
says: AS an exceptional mark of honor
to Archbishop Gibbon, who has been ap-
pointed to officiate in tomorrow IS services
at the Church Of Santa Maria Maggiora
instead of Cardinal, as is usual. The
distinction is a rare one. None but Cardi-
nails, as rule, are permitted to officiate at
this altar. The Church of st. Mary Major
is one of the oldest in Christendom, and is
one of the four great cathredrals of the
Catholic world. In one of the small side
affairs. hid from the view of the worship
ers, are deposited relics of Christ and
some of His saints. This is called the
privileged altar. The Pope alone has alb
solute power to celebrate mass here. The
Vatican has, however, relegated to the
Cardinal Project in Rome the power of
allowing others to say mass there, to which
is always attached special blessings. Gen
orally cardinals who are in Rome are as
signed to celebrate at st. Mary Major. The
honor is grea ter from the fact that it is
only on grand festivals that mass is
said at the privileged altar in st. Mary's.
There are in Rome many djgnitaries from
the continent, and that Archbishop Glib
bon should be selected on this occasion is
arare compliment to the American Church.

In the Supreme Court of Baltimore on
the 10Th, Judge Fisher rendered his opin-
ion in the case Of Tagart, executor of the
will of the late Genus Barnum vs. Frank
Barnum and others and the Mayor and
City Council of Baltimore. The bill was
filed by the executor for construction of
the will of Genus Barnum, who bequeathed
his entire estate to Mr.. Tagart, in trust.
for the benefit of his brother, Frank Bar
mum, but provided that upon his said
brother becoming a priest OF a member Of
any order or society of the Roman Cath
Ollie Church, the estate should pass to the
Mayor and City Council Of Baltimore, for
the benefit of the McDonough Institute.
Frank Barnnm having become a member
Of the Order of Jesuits, the city claimed
the fund for the purposes declared by the
testator, but the brothers and sisters of the
testator claimed that the devise to the
city is void, and that, therefore, the estate
being undisposed of descends to the heirs
and next of kin. The decree rendered is
in favor Of the Mayor and City Council
for the McDoAough Institute. The case
was argued last week, each of the parties
to the bill being represented by several of
the ablest counsel of the Baltimore bar.

Col. Robert sBeyerly,s Address.

We publish elsewhere the address Of
Col. Beverly to the people of Virginia, in
the interest of agriculture. The most
prominent suggestion he presents is advo-
eating the creation of Department of
Agriculture, with representative in the
Cabinet. He forcibly argues for the prop
osition-one that we have urged for years
past, as. due to the farmers of the coun-
try. 1t is one of Observation-Disclosures of our
political history, that this class of our fell
-citizens-the most important of our
industrial system--haye allowed themselves
to be edged to the rear by the ambitious pol
iticians, when they have it in their power
to determine all results and issues in
their own interests. Not only in Congress
but in the Legislatures of the States, and
especially in that Of Virginia. men are ele-
waited to legislative positions who know
nothing about the farming interests and
care less. They manage, by pure brass
and impudence. to push themselves to the
front, control primaries and conventions.
and thus commanding party machinery,
compel all who may have party sympathy
with them, to do their bidding. That the
farmers are not more largely and intelli-
gently represented in the State and Ma
tional councils, is their own fault. They
have the power to do otherwise if they
would, and if they would summon q little
courage and independence they could have
such representation in Congress as to
compel the recognition of their rights. 1t
is lamentable to think that few curb
stone politicians, by sheer impudence, can
dominate the entire farming interests OF "a
county, State, and even the N alton, in the
name of the party, and intelligent gentle
men, well qualified to legislate OH all pub
lie questions, and especially that relating
to agriculture,Eare Showed aside to make
way for them. 1t is with the farmers
themselves to correct this state of things,
and it Col. Beverly can do anything to
aid them-suggest and press some feasible
plan to lift the agricultural community to
the dignity and prominence it deserves, he
will receive the thanks of that interest.
and the whole country, apart from the
scheming politicians.

Among the passengers on the city o.
Berlin, which arrived at New York on the
24th, was Mrs. O'Donnell. widow of the
man who was hung for shooting Carey
After ODonnell had been sentenced, his
Wite had an opportunity Of seeing her
doomed husband and then embarked on
the steamship for this country. On the
voyage Mrs. O'Donnell had dream that
her husband had been respited. and that
she would again be enabled to see MN
alive. She was so much overjoyed by hef
dream that she told all her friends, and eX-
pressed feeling of great happiness, which
was, however, rudely dispelled on the YES
sci reaching port, when she learned from
the papers that he had been hanged.
