FOOD FOR HORSES.
The Advantage of Bruised Oats Ovef
Whole Clearly Demonstrated.

The Advantage of Bruised Oats Over
Whole Clearly Demonstrated
The Woodworking horse is often
guilty of what many farmers look upon
as an objectionable habit-oat boiling.
That Is, they are s. anious to get their
feed that they swallow their oats with
out ~masticatiOn. the result being that
much of the grain passes through the
animal undigested. In such cases a
few whole peas mixed among the oats
nre useful. The horse is very fond of
them, and in chewing them AN not
help masticating the oats also. But
bruised oats are better for horses in
the long run than whole grain fed with
or without other coarse food. The adj
vantage of bruised oats over whole in
horse feeding was recently well demon
strated by IN experiment made by
the London Omnibus Company, which
owns some six Thousand head of horses.
One half OF the horses were confined
to one kind of feeding, viz: That OF
bruised oats and cut hay and straw,
and the other half to whole oats and
hay. The ration allowed per day to
each horse according to the n sys
tenn was, bruised oats, IS pounds; cut
hay, y pounds; cut straw, p pounds.
The quantity allowed, according to the
old system, was, unbruised oats, 10
pounds; uncut hay, 10 pounds. There
was thus a saving Of 6 pounds on the
feeding Of each horse, and this saving
was not merely in the quantity but in
the value OF the article employed, for
straw In the former case took the place
of hay in the latter. The advantage of
one kind Of feeding over the other
becomes far more apparent when
reduced to money value. The
saving by using the bruised oats
and cut hay is nearly five cents per day
for each horse, which is equal to
$3l2.5 so per day for 5000 horses. This
saving was accomplished without any
sacrifice whatever, for all the drivers
and those having charge of the horses
agreed that the difference in the con-
dition of the horses was decidedly in
favor OF those on bruised oats and cut
hay and straw. Five cents saved each
day on the feeding Of horse Is not a
large sum certainly, but it Is this prin-
ciple Of saving small sums in every de-
partment Of the farm management
that really produces the best results.
The best methods are those which can
be carried out at less expense than
those commonly in vogue, and YET
prove more profitable to the farmer,-

DR.. J.. Herbert Claiborne, Jr., Of New
York City, has written an interesting ac-
count for the Medical Record Of . newly dis.
covered alkaloid, with which he has been
experimenting and whose therapeutic value
q Q local anestehtic he concludes will not
be inconsiderable, especially in eye diseases.
His own researches have been confined to
Its effects on tho mucous surfaces Of the
eye and nose, but he thinks 1t may fairly be
reckoned as a rival Of cocaine, and feels
safe in predicting for 1t q wide field Of use
fulness in all departments Of surgery where
local anesthesia is desired.
The new drug Is derived from the leaves
Of q tree very much resembling the acdcid
sfenocdrapo, and known in Louisiana as the
''tear- blanket tree"
The discovery of the drug was due to an
accident. Mr.. Goodman, a veterinary
surgeon, while travelling through West
Feliciana Parish, La, had occasion to apply
. poultice to a swelling on the fetlock OF
one of his horses. He used the first leaves
that came to hand, saturated with hot
water. After making a free ~incision in the
swelling no was surprised to find that the
horse evinced not the slightest feeling
Of pain.
The leaves were afterward analysed and
found to contain an alkaloid to which
anasthetic properties were found to be
due. The new drug is at present known as
stonocarpin.

The total Of these exports was SS16,-

count We find that British Columbia
fOr.t the same period exported TO San
Francisco coal, precious metals and
other articles to the value OF SL3Oi,-

provinces OF 5i2l,I92. In shipping,
the trade between that port and the
province IS by all odds larger than
with any other country. For the
past year SO steam vessels were en-
tered at that city, OF S5,S47 tons; 53
sailing vessels of 2,0l2 tons. Under
the head Of foreign for British CO.
lumbla u steam vessels were entered
having a capacity Of 81, 800 tons, and
10 sailing vessels Of 20.S57 tons. The
steam ciearances for British Colum-
bia for 1887 were 81 vessels of 86,376
tone. These were American. The
sailing vessels numbered 2S OF 80, ,391

Franchises best customer. The value
of exports to that country for tbs
