Birds Drowning Fishes.

Captain Mclean, of the bark Fifth OF
Lorn, of Glasgow, which sailed from
Lyttleton, N. H., April 26 last, passed
Cape Horn May % and arrived at Lon
don August 81, reports the following
singular occurrence: July %, when in
latitude twenty degrees one minute
north, longitude twenty-nine degrees
forty-eight minutes west, a floating spar
was seen and boat was lowered and
the spar towed alongside. On exami-
nation it was found to be valueless,
being worm-eaten throughout, but a
large shoal of fish which had accom-
panied the spar abandoned it and COM
menced eating the barnacles from the
ships lotion. This continued until the
9th of July, whom in latitude thirty
eight degrees forty-two minutes north,
longitude thirty-four degrees thirty-six
minutes west, the fish left the ship after
having cleared the ships bottom, by
which the speed of the vessel was in
creased two knots per hour Soon after
ward singular commotion was OBJ
served on the ocean, which was nearly
calm. Birds were seen moving about
on the surface with great rapidity, oc-
casionally disappearing beneath the
water and coming up again half
strangled. As the vessel approached
it was seen that a shoal of fish several
acres in extent was visible on the water
A gannet or liver would alight on the
back Of a great fish, spread its tail and
wings to catch the breeze, dig its claws
deep into the fnny monsters hide and
60 before the wind at such q tremen-
deus speed rs soon to drown the ami
mated craft. The bird would then de-
your the fish at its leisure. - Manchester

He took from his pocket piece of
iron chain as large as his thumb and
containing six links and passed it
around. After it had carefully been in
spected by each of the party he con-
tinued:
81 want to bet my overcoat, which is
certainly worth $40, against SO in cash
that none of you can separate one link
from the others"
The piece of chain was passed around
again to be more closely scrutinized,
and finally one of the party, who was a
machinist, returned it with the remark:
"And l want to put up that sum
against your overcoat that you can't do
it yourself. :"
''Doner said the stranger as he pulled
off his coat.
Coat and cash were put up in the
hands OF stakeholder, and the stranger
asked the group to follow him. He
walked across the street and into a
blacksmith shop, and picking up a
hammer and cold-chisel he deliberately
cut out link. The crowd stood around
like SO many pumpkins at a county
fair, but when the stranger held up the
link and claimed the stakes the ma
chinist recovered his wits sufficiently to
exclaim:
"Sold by a professional deadbeat!

''Thanks-glad to have met you

MEALS IN THE MILK RATION.
Estimates on the Amount Of Milk Produced
by Certain Courses Of Feeding.

Estimates on the Amount Of Milk Produced
by Certain Courses Of Feeding.
To test the principle that has been
very emphatically laid down by Ger
man investigators, and somewhat wide
ly accepted in this country, that q lib
eral supply of digestible protein is the
main thing to be looked after in the
ration for mich cows, tests have re-
Gently been made at the Wisconsin Ex-
pertinent Station. The first ration con-
sisted of clover-hay and cornmeal, and
had one part of digestible protein to
about eight of digestible matters of
other kinds. In the second ration cot
tonseed oil meal was substituted for a
for a part of the cornmeal in such
quantities that the ration should con-
tain the same total of digestible mat
tiers, but at the same time larger pro-
portion of protein-one part of this to
about five of other digestible matters.
In the third ration malt sprouts were
put in the place of the cottonseed meal
in such quantity as to leave the proper
ton of protein and of total digestible
matters unchanged. $3.50
If the principle stated in the begin
ming be correct, the second and third
ration should yield more or better milk,
or both, than the first. In estimating
the effect of the ration, due allowance
was made for the natural falling off in
the yield of milk as the period of lacta-
ton advanced, and for the gradually in
creasing temperature with the advance
of the season-two opposing tendencies
which partially but not entirely neutral
lied each other. The results were not
favorable to the principle tested. On
the second ration there was very slight
gain, which could be credited to the
ration, and on the third ration a very
slight loss in yield. There was not, as
we should have expected, notable gain
on the second ration, continued on the
third.
Ct will be remembered that the inten-
ton was, in making up the rations, to
have the same total of digestible matter
of all kinds in every one; but when the
separate digestion feeding experiments
with the folders used in these milk ex-
periments were finished it was found
that the second ration contained little
larger total of these matters than did
the first, while the third contained a lit
tie less. If now it be supposed that the
yield of milk depends especially and
mostly on the quantity of digestible
matters of all kinds, it is explained why
about the same quantity of milk was OBJ
tanned on these three rations, but a lit
tie more on the second than on the first,
and little less on the third than on the
