The daily allowance of hay to each
COW should be about % pounds, the
quantity varying somewhat with the
size of the animal. It is well to bear in
mind. when laying in the winter supply
that early-cut hay is by far the most
nutritious, as the early cutting saves, in
a nutritious form, material which later
on becomes woody fiber.
The value of roots as Winter food is
so widely acknowledged that little need
be said in support of their use. Their
nutritiye qualities are considerable, and
their vegetable constitution retains their
distinctive natural moisture, while the
large bulk which may b grown on a Civ
en- area at a comparatively small cost,
recommends them to every reason
ing man. A crop of 600 bushels OF
mangelwurzels and 800 bushels of ruta-
bagas was raised npon one acre OF good
land al q total cost of only $50. Fifty
pounds of roots and 20 pounds Of hay
constitute a good daily feed for milking
COWS of average size. More hay should
be added if the cattle viii consume it,
or its equivalent should be given in
straw or corn-stalks, boiled if practic-
able. Add to this ration two quarts Of
corn-meal, and almost the excellence OF
q Summer pasture is attained. IL the
further addition of the two quarts Q.
cotten-seed meal is made, az recon-
mended IN the case Of ~pasturing, the
results will closely approach the maxi
mum, and will prove o sufficient reason
for p-ersevering in this diet. The value
Of variety in food should not be forgot

other grains may profitably form an oc'

Captain Scronhonen Of the steamer d. Stein
man. wrecked at ssmbro, !. s., giivus tho fol-
lowing particulars: The steamer had fine
weather on the passage, with tho exception Of
being impossible TO get any reckoning, and he
thinks he must have over-run his timo. AT 10
p. m the Sd inst, he saw a light ahead, which
he first took for the Chebuct0 light, the fog
making it appear about five miles off but it
could not have been more than
one. He discovered, as he
nearedthe light, that it was Sambro, and before
he had time to reverse the engines, he was
among the lodges northeast OF the island. The
steamer struck twice, and began filing fast
He then tried to run her ashore, but she sank
in a few minutes. As SOON as the ship struck
the captain ordered the passengers all on deck,
butthey were all swept oyerborrd and drowned
by the heavy seas which swept over her. Two
passengers and five of the crew got into a boat,
andmanaged to reach shore. The captain, who
was at his post on the bridge when she went
down threw OF his boots and coat and took
tc the forward rigging, but she sank faster
than he could climb, 80 he was Obliged
to let himself float, and after considerable
trouble caught the top gallant yard, and chung
there with one of the passengers, who also
managed to keep himself afioat until 5 a. M
Friday, when a boat put of from the island and
rescued them. The surviving passengers and
seaman OF the iil-fated steamer are:

Thinking farmers will lose no time in
securing a supply of good seed nor will
they trust to appearance, nor to any
mans word but will carefully test it
for themselves, and thus lie sure. it will
germinate. This testing of seed is not
at all a difficult undertaking; TO be
doubly sure three tests should be made
for one dip with a large spoon careless
", 100 kernels out of tile pile; for the
second, select 100 Of the best, and, for
the third, 100 of the poorest You can
find.
Take for each lot any convenient
dish, and fill it nearly full of clean
sand, and pour in water till it rises to
within a.. quarter of an inch of the top
of the sand; on the sand place the LOO
kernels of corn, and owe these place
any convenient cloth to retain moisture
and exclude light. Place the dish near
the stove SO as to ecure a temperature
of so degrees, and not over IL degrees.
In two days, and every day thereafter,
examine by carefully lifting the cloth.
Every kernel that has spronted should
be removed and counted; in this way
you can tell what per cent. of each
grade will grow. If not over 70 per
cent. of the best kernels germinate, the
seed should be rejected, but in any
case you will know how much'to allow
for worthless seed at planting time

Much interest Is manifested in this section
Of country on this trial, as the parties are
wei known, and az this is one OF the lesser
Of the three charges it may have bearing
on the Others. From the evidence produced
It viii be seen that the assault case did not
stand on its own merits, but side issues were
brought in, making the trial still more inter-
esting.
The charge OF the court to the jury was
8 most impartial one and was universally
commended BY those who heard it. The
case was given to the jury at 4 O'Clock, and
five hours after they returned a verdict OF
guilty Of assault, striking out the charge OF
the indictment of premedttated intent to dc
Mrs. Sc. Claire great bodily harm.
This morning will be taken up the ease
against St. Claire for assault upon Deputy
Sheriff Marty at the time be and two other
prisoners escaped from the county jail. 1t is
not thought it will occupy much time.
The following business was also done in
the court yesterday:
The state of Minnesota against Edgar
Wadsworth. The defendant came into court
and pleaded guilty to larceny of property OF
the value OF $40. The plea was accepted,
and the court sentenced him to pay a fine of

A Word From the Sixth Ward.

To the Editor OF the GLOBE:
ST. PAUL, Nov. Is. II notice in your issue
of this morning a resolution OF General
Bishops in the chamber of commerce yester-
day in regard to the construction of the pro-
posed Robert street bridge, In which he pro-
poses to assess property directly benefited by
said bridge for all costs above $500, 600.
This he considers a just aud equitable plan.
If (says General Bishop st. Anthony hill
and Dayton bluff pay a small part of this ex-
pense Of the bridge, they will have done all
their duty. Perhaps Gen. Bishop and the
people Of st. Anthony Hill would like TO have
the same plan adopted in regard TO the new
water works on ST. Anthony hill. The city
Of st. Paul has been to a great expense In
the construction of engine houses, engines,
ETC., and must forever be at great expense TO
maintain them TO carry water TO St. Anthony
hill, all the other parts of the city could be
supplied without this pumping station. Now
let US get up another resolution 10 assess the
expense for construction and maintenance
Of the st. Anthony hill system OF water
works TO the property benefited, allowing
that the Sixth ward and balance Of the city
will pay a small part OF this expense and
thereby preform their duty. / might say
word or two further here about sewerage
bonds and West Fort street improvements
paid for out of city funds in which all do not
share alike in benefits. In conclusion viii
say that the property owners in the Sixth
who will be benefited will be likely to have
to pay pretty well for il in the way of assess
ments for grading street through the bluff
and across the fiat to connect with the bridge.
Sixth WARDER.
