Cut the Corn Stalks.-There are many
advantages in such course, chief one
being that the fodder will 60 much fur

The time acquired for the cutting is hard

bad weather, when time is of little value
otherwise. Feed in troughs or in half

By cutting and crushing bright, we'll

value for feeding as timothy hay.
Chemistry and Farming.-Dr. Sturte-
want, of the New York State Experiment
al Farm has reached the sensible concld-
sion which many have reached before him,
namely: That something more than chem
cal analysis is required for the study of
our cattle foods. Experimenting upon
the effects of exposure to clover hay, it
was found that the poorest specimen OF
some which had been exposed to the
weather for a month showed the largest
percentage of albuminoids-the constitu-
ent that is looked upon as the representa-
tive OF food value. But the trouble all
lays in the fact that when this was offered
to cows they refused to touch it. although
they ate readily of the same moving OF
grass that had been we'll cured and not
exposed.
Horn Marks as indicating Age.-These
are not as many folks believe, an indica-
ton of how many calves COW may bave
had, but of age. This notion loses all
force when we observe that rings are met
on the horns of males as we'll as of fe-
males. When a heifer or a male is two
years old wrinkle may be found forming
at the base of the horn. and as the horn
grows, the next year this wrinkle is easily
seen. This mark. as it appears in sight
therefore, stands for three years of age.
At five years second ring appears. After
this one appears every year until at the
age of II or II the wrinkles are smaller
and closer, and some of the earliest will
have been worn away. So the horns are
no guide to age after this. Neither are
the teeth. for these are effected very much
by the kind of land that pasturing has
been done on. They wear off much fast
er for grazing on sandy land than on clay
