How Sheridan Saved a Cadet.

A recent graduate of West Point
gives a pleasant account of his last
sight of General Sheridan. That illus
trious soldier was making the inspec-
ton rounds of the military academy
with the commandment. Sheridan lin
gered awhile in the quarters of my in
formant, whose father was the Gener-
ais friend of long standing. Before
leaving, Little Phil" stepped to the
open fireplace, and. bending. looked up
the chimney, making a thrust with his
sword worthy of a professional sweep.
Rattletybang, crash, came whole as
sortment of bottles, TASKS and cigar
boxes. The cadet said he stood aghast
with the death sweat on him. General
Sheridan froze him with stern glance,
and then, turning to the inspector,
said: DO not report this case; have
taken an unfair advantage of -. 1

my own cadetship. Chicago America

The behavior of troops in battle de-

depends on the manner in which he Is

RYE FOR HORSES.
1t Is Cheaper at sixty Cents Than Oats at
Thirty-ive Cents a Bushel.

Thirty-fve Cents Bushel.
In answer to an inquiry as to
whether it is better to sell rye at 80
cents and buy oats at 40 cents than to
have the rye ground for horses, +. +.
Emery, of the New York Experimental
Station, says: ut appears that Amer
lean winter rye is little richer in di-
gestible substance and digestibility,
owing, no doubt, to its containing no
water. The digestibility never having
been determined under American
conditions can only be taken
with considerable allowance and
then only relatively. Rye is cheaper
at 60 cents per bushel than
oats at Sc cents. Rye being much
heavier grain and containing nearly
one-fourth less hull than oats should
be ground and mixed with nearly its
own weight of cut hay, mOistened
enough to hold the rye meal, other
wise it might form heavy, indigesti-
mass in the stomach and produce collie,
If the horses are at all constipated on
this mixture little bran or oatmeal
will suffice TO keep the bowels in good,
healthy condition, but this will hardly
be necessary if the horses are at work
or exercise regularly. The amount of
feed depends so much upon The con-
stitution, age and work of the horse
that the feeder must be guided largely
by his own judgment, observing, how
ever, to feed about as many pounds of
the ground rye as he would of oats. but
not so many quarts by nearly half. We
should begin with about ten pounds of
cut hay and increase and diminish &C
cording to the apparent need OF each
animal, giving all that would be eaten
up clean. Less grain would be required
with clover hay, and about One-fourth
more should be added If straw consti'
tutes part of the ration"

Worn-Out Soil.


WORKOUT soil.
There have been many ups and
downs in the business since my boy
hood; many changes from sheep to
something else, and back again, and
many thousand sheep have been
slaughtered for their pelts and tallow
alone in times of depression, but the
men who have persistently stuck to
sheep through thick and thin, improv-
ing their fiocks while others were sell
ing out or killing theirs, have in the
end come out ahead every time. and
have kept up the condition of their
farms better than any other class OF
farmers among Us. No man acquainted
with the situation will attempt to con-
trovert this assertion. Ii desired to

Just as heavily as it would bear with

There are places in which sheep are
nests ar nuisances. But no intelligent
shepherd would pasture sheep in gar
den or among small fruits. Nor would
he turn them upon his newly seeded
clover-plots. any more than dairyman
would turn COWS into his cornfield.
Historically, the sheep clearly ranks
first among useful animals. and al
though they sometimes fall into disre-

against them. they are bound to go up
higher in popular estimation with every

A novel enterprise in New Y ork is an
establishment which makes a business of
cleaning windows. The cleaners all wear
uniforms, which consist of blue suit and
a peak cap with a shield on which is the
company's name. They all carry ladders,
which are painted red and white. At the
top, where the ladder tapers to a point
there is square block OF rubber, so that
when the ladder is placed against window,
on account of the size of the block and the
the elasticity of the rubber, the pressure is
not great enough to break the glass, the
rubber also preventing the ladder from
scratching the pane. The company charges
according to the size of the window; for
washing an ordinary sized window it charges
81 a month. Each employe cleans from 10C
to $50 day.
