The Cereals VS.. Meat.

England is a meat-eater, while France
is a cereal eater or an eater of bread and
oil. Yesterday l had a long talk with
lie COmte Ferdinand de Lesseps in re-
gard to the value of cereals Tor food.
NJ. de Lesseps wOr} ed thousands of
Italians, Turks ana Frenchmen on the
Suez Canal
DO yOu really think the cereals are
stronger food than meat?'' l asked.
''Certainly," he replied. zone pound
of dry wheat -four is worth as much as
three pounds of weS beef. Scald the
pound OF flour and see! YOU have a gal
Ion of mush. You could not eat it in
three days. If you feed the cereals to
cattle rs they do in England it takes
eight pounds of grain to make a pound
OF meat. So, why feed the grain to
animal tramps? Why not eat it our
selves and do away with a surplus pop
ulation of 5O,OOO,O 200 cattle, hogs and
sheep animal tramps? England IS
supporting perhaps $4,000, 0JO cattle,
sheep and hogs, and 40, 900, 900 people
or rather she supports her cattle and
buys bread from America to feed her
people. France supports 45.000,000
people and about2O, 900, 900 cattle, hogs
and sheep
Then you believe in raising more
grain and less cattle and hogs?" l
asked.
Certainly. One acre of cereals in
France will support five men, while it
would take two acres of grass to sup
port one steer and, in the end, one man
would eat the steer. The advantage of
the cereals over the meat is as five to
one. So, you see, the steer is an I'M
necessary tramp. The Englishman, "
continued De Lesseps, ''inSists on roast
beef, every pound of which cost eight
pounds OF cereals. The Frenchman
eats the cereals himself. He buys mill
ions of gallons OF cOttOn-seed oil in
America at three cents per pound. This
nc eats in his salad, in his soup, and in
his bread and pie-cruSt. The French
man rehnes millions of gallons of
American cotton-seed oil sends it back
to America, and sells it for two or three
dollars agaIlOn. CUttOn-seed oil is super
seding peanut oil, and olive oil is almost
a thing of the past. For years the pea
nut crop of Tennessee and North Caro-
| lima has been sent to Marseilles and
made into olive oil. COttOn-seed oil
/ has been found by the French to be bet
| ter and cheaper than peanut oil. To-
/ day all Spain, Southern France, Italy,
! Turkey and Austria are living on Amer
/ lean cottOn-seed oil. All au Italian
| gentleman or laborer wants is oil, mac
/ caroni, bread, sugar, wine and coffee.
] COt;on-see oil takes the place OF meat.
1t is strange that your Southern States
/ have been for years throwing away mill
/ ions of beautiful cottOn-seed oil and
/ buying unhealthy pork ami lard in its
/ place! COrn-meal cooked like macca-
/ roni with oil and cheese is delicious
/ food, and so cheapn Louisville

The House of Landlords.

The House of Lords is often called the
House of Landlords, not without reason,
since out of 500 privileged to legislate
for the cOuntry-Or rs some s9--, them
selves-nO less than 40 are landlords
in the fullest sense Of the term; that is,
they derive the whole or the greater
part of their revenues from land. Fiji
teen million acres of land, with an ag-
grcgate rent roll of nearly Els, 900, 600,
represent their property and income,
while another E7jO, 900, in the shape of
pensions, annuities and salaries also
falls annually to the lot of the priyil-
eyed class. In addition to this, no one
can yet properly compute the sums
which are drawn yearly by their rela-
tions and hangers-On from the National
Exche iuer, but it has been reckOned
that within the last thirty years about
10000, 900, has been paid to sons,
gTand-sOns, cousins, etc, of titled fam
lilies for moro or less generally less
active services rendered to the
State. Nearly half the members of the
upper house hold or have held commits
siOns in the army and navy, and seven
ty new peerages have been created with

People who are afraid of insects can
not take much comfort in India, where
there are myr;ads of them. and it is
useless to try and keep them out of doors.
The houses are not fitted with wire net
tings for the doors and windows, and in
the evening lamps are often eXtinguished
by insects plunging into and smother
ing the fame. But even should this
not happen. persons around the lamp
are sure to he driven to the sec}usiOn of
darkened rooms by the annoying little
pests that fly into faces and on hands,
and crawl down necks or up sleeves,
sometimes adding to the unpleasant
sensations of contact a sharp bite or
sting. But all this superabundance of
animal lie does not make India n very
unpleasant country to live in, and the
number of persons killed by wild beasts
an yenOmous serpents is not rs large as
one might expect Hqregdtio1Gitst.

The Sterilization of the Stars.

Mons. Montigny, of Brussels, has
noticed in the scintillat'on of the stars
a great preponderance of blue, the color
of water or ice, in great thickness, when
the atmosphere is heavily charged with
watcry vapor and rain is imminent. In
June, 1898, he announced THAI for two
months the twinkling of the stars had
shown less of the blue than in the cor e
spending months of previous years.
while green, a faE weather color, had
been much more frequently seen. These
observations led him to predict that the
succeeding part of the year would be
unusually dry. 1t Is now stated that his
prediction was SO accurately full He'd
that in 1885 Brussels saw the drlest
year since 1879. A study OF the rain
band spectroscope has enabled OBJ servers

Fattening Fowls.

In fattening fowls the first care should
be to allow them as little room as can
be-iust enough for the number to
stand up, but not enough for anything
like exercise. If four are allowed the
same sp ,ce that would serve for a
dozen, they will not fatten as we'll or
as readily; therefore a space of the fat
tening coop should he divided off and
this should allow them only room TO
stand. The food for the fowl intended
to be fattened should be ground oats
mixed with skim milk. The food
should be given them three times a
day and mixed to such a consistency
that when it is spread on board it will
not run OFF. If fowls are fed with reg
ularity they win fatten in three weeks
time. In the Western States most of
the farmers fasten up such fowls as they
intend to kill for their own use, select
ing such as are not considered the most
profitable to keep and place them in
small coops or pens and feed them with
care, and soon they have fowls that are
admirably suited for the table. Even
where fowls ha1 been allowed free ac-
cess to the corn-crib and granary, this
IS a common practice yearly observed.

Preserving Wood from Decay.

A plan recently introduced into Bel
GUM for preserving wood from decay
produced by the atmosphere, water,
etc, is to hll the pores with liquid
gutta- percha, which is said to effectually
preserve it from moisture and the action
of the sun. The process employed con-
sists in eXhausting the air from the
pores Of the wood, and filling with
gutta-percha solution. In pouring the
solution into the pores. the solid gutta-
percha is liquihej by mixing with
paraIfne; the mixture is then subm t
ted to the ton OF heat, and the gut.a-
percha becomes sufficiently liquid to be
easily introduced into the pores o. the
wood. The gutta-percha liquified by
this process hardens in the pores of tho
wood as soon as it becomes cold. -Er-

You may talk about your Routts,
your Hamllls, your Tabors and your
Chaffees, but when it comes right
down to the heck-and-ne,k fight for
the United States Senate it is between
Henry NJ. Teller and N. P, Hill.
These gentlemen have distinct and
separate reason why either of them
should be elected. Teller has always
been a co-worker with the stalwar,
element Of the Republican party, and
If elected he would be a thorn in the
side Of the Democracy so far as the
appointing power OF the incoming
administration is concerned. Hill is
considered the greatest champion of
our silver interests, and the matter of
sending either one of them back to
the Senate amounts to this, that one
represents our political intesests. while
the other gentleman represents our
commercial interests, and the whole
problem resolves itself INTO this fact,
which Of The two interests is oe the
most benefit to the people Of Colorado.
This is question that our Legislature
should we'll consider before being re-
sponsib!e for sending either one Of
them back.
While on this subject we might add
that there are several dark horses who
could Gil the seat just as ably as either
of these gentlemen in case the fight
becomes so bitter that neither one Of
them can be agreed upon. We mean
no ether than Judge Elbert, Judge
Hallet, ex. Governor Pitkia. and : few
