Republican Senators Are Sorry for
Having Rejected the Fisheries

treaty.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Aug. E23.-There is
considerable anxiety among Republican
senators concerning the rejection of the
fisheries treaty and the presidents mes
sage to-day. 1t is now developed that
the Republican senatorial caucus which
decided to reject the treaty was regu-
lar bear garden, in which certain West
ern senators aggresSively demanded
that the treaty be amended and allowed
to go over to the next session of con-
gress. The New England senators, how
ever, insisted upon rejection and carried
their point by majority of only five
votes in the caucus. The eloquent plea
of Senator Morgan in behalf of the
treaty concluded with the warning of
possible war. A leading Republican
senator to-day said: "The rejection of
the treaty by the Republican senate
would warrant Great Britain in sending
some eft her men-of-war into Canadian
waters for the alleged purpose of pro-
tecting her subjects in their fishery
rights. Such action would divert the
attention of our people from the tariff
question and the would blame the Re-
publican party for the impending war,
and rightly too"

WHEN TO FEED COWS.
A System Requisite to Secure the
Most Generous Results.

A System Requisite to Secure the
Most Generous Results.
The Holstein Friesian Register says
it may seem a small matter to discuss
whether dairy herd should be fed
twice or three times day, yet if twice
is enough, as many believe, it is not so
very small a matter. No doubt that in
stances could be cited on either side
which, when taken alone, would seem
to settle the question. If cow
is underfed in two meals, or if
her two meals are devoid of proper
nourishment, even if full in quantity,
the addition of third feeding may in
crease the flow of milk or add to her
weight of flesh. There is no doubt that
COWS may be fed so they will do about
all they are capable of doing by either
have been practieed, and it can hardly
be said that there is much difference so
far as the cow is concerned. She can
take her feed in two meals, or in three,
according to the convenience of the
feeder, and will do we'll either way if
the food is of sufficient quantity and
quality. 1t is a great convenience to
have our stock accustomed to the two
meal system. 1t is especially conven-
lent in the winter season, when the days
are short and the cattle are taking but
little exercise.
The cow has stomach made to hold
a large quantity of coarse, partially
masticated food, that can be remasti-
Gated at pleasure. When kept up the
writer is fully satisfied that two meals
for average dairy stock are fully as
profitable to the owners as three meals.
He has been surprised to see how
quickly the cows would adopt the two
meal system. and would lie down and
chew cud at noon without appearing to
think of food. They not only learn not
to expect feeding, but soon learn not to
care for it. The morning or night meal
is not necessarily given at once, but is
better given in small feelings continu-
ouSly till enough is given.
