Feeding Value Of Cottenseed Meal.

The feeding value of cottoriseed meal
Is the highest of all cattle foods. 1t is
estimated at about three and one-half
times rs much as good hay in nutritive
value. IL contains about twenty-three
ner cent. of nitrogcnous sub
Stance and ten to twelve of fat, with
about twenty per cent. OF other carbon
accou. matters. Upon this account its
manurail value is very high and more
than that of any other food. being
rated at about S27 per ton Of the neal.
This i because very large portion OF
,be nitrogen in it is not digested, and
Is not discharged in the urine and the
manure. But this fact is something Of
the very greatest Importance to farm
srs who use the cottonseed meal, be-
@ oause nitrocenous matter that is not
d;ges,ed is discharged through the
bowels and kidneys, and chiefly
through the kidneys, causing a very
much Increased act on of these organs,
which is apt to produce disease unless
thc greatest caution is observed and
tbe meal is fed in small quantities and
mixed with other less nutritious sub
stances.-N. \. Times.

Usefuiness--A suggestive Badge.
NoRwALK, CONN. January L.
On the night of December 3lst, 1883,
three young men sat around tavern fire
In Georgetown, village ten miles from
here. The three were intoxicated and
were watching the old year out. As the
clock struck twelve one of the young men
said; "Boys, the new year is here, now
let's swear off and form a temperance So
ciety." The Others In spirit of fun
agreed. The articles of association were
then and there drawn, up. They were
similar to the rules of other temperance
organizations with one exception. The
clause containing the pledge had the fol-
lowing penalty attached; "And any one
of us who shall drink any intoxicating
liquor for any purpose whatsoever be-
tween now ana midnight OF December
3lst, 1884, shall be tarrcd and fcathered." !"
This clause becoming known gained the
club the name of "Ihc Tar and Feather
Temperance Society,"" Meetings of the
society of three were frequently held.
Gradually applications for membership
began to pour in, and before six months
had passed the society numbered thirty
members. The year of abstinence ex.
pired on Tuesday night, and a grand ball
was given by the society to which large
number of the best people of the place
were invited. The hall was filled
AT midnight the President announced
that the pledge had expired. by a
unanimous vote it was renewed for an
other year, and some twenty new names
were added to the roll. The peculiar
penalty proves an attractive advertise
meat, and the matter Is the talk of the
neighborhood. Nearly every resident
wears the socicty's badge. The badge is
blue ribbon with a lump of tar iillcd
with chicken feathers attached.

CHArrASooGAIrrNS., January 4.
A sensational tragedy was enacted at
lockwood on the line of the Cincinnati
Southern Railway near this city Friday
night. A dance was given at the resi-
dencc of Henry Crawford, and more than
fifty people were present. During the
evening number of games were played,
among them one called "snap." by the
rules of the game the last gcItle-
man out has the privilege OF kiss
Ing his partner. Richard I,rummlt,
young man, found himself to be the
last out, aud, placing his arm around
the waist of Miss Fannie Crawford, a
beautiful blonde, claimed a kiss from her.
She objected to such public osculation,
and when young Brummit good-natured-
ly persisted she gave his cheek stinging
smack with her hand. Without thinking
Brummit said to Miss Crawford, "You
are fool" and turned to walk away. A
brother Of the lady rushed up at this
juncturc and demanded that Brummt
retract what he had said. This
the latter refused to do,
whcreupon Crawford Knocked
Brummit down. When ne arose Brum-
nit drew huge dirk, and before any one
could interfere had plunged it up to the
hilt into Crawford's breast three times,
killing him instantly. The warm blood
of the young man, who in attempting
to aycngc an insult to his sister lost
his lite, spurtcd out on the ballroom
floor, bespattcrng the dresses of several
ladies standing near.
