WHAT IS THE BEST CIR RAIN FEED
FOR Mich COWSa

Prof. W. A. Henry, of the Wiscon-
sin Agricultural College, says in Dairy
Column:
clam often asked to state which
graiu feed is the best feed for COWS,
and am forced to reply that 1 do not
know. In fact, there is no best of
anything in the world. Each and
everything is adapted to some specis,
purpose, and useful in its way and
place. So with feeds. First of all
the dairyman should seek variety.
Cows, like people, appreciate change
in diet; indeed l know Of no animal
on the farm that will pay better for
little attentions than the COW.
"Of the grains, corn meal has its
place. 1t certainly produces milk,
cream and butter of good quality.
Some of our best feeders give it very
high value.
Ground oats are exceedingly pa
atsble aDd valuable, and only the fact
that they cost more than corn prevents
their far more general use. Those
dairymen who raise oats should dis
pose of them at the COW barn rather
than the grain elevator. Our expert
ence with oats at this station has been
uniformly satisfactory.
"Our farmers have been rapidly
learning the high value of bran and
shorts. Both these feeds contain a
large amount of protein, the chemical
compound that is needed to build up
the cheese ~(caseine) part of the milk.
The butter producer may insist that
he does not care about the cheese part
of milk, but that does not matter.
Natures object is to produce feed for
the calf, and milk must contain the
muscle elements. Whether we will
or not, the 20 will put just the same
amount of cheese in the milk from day
to day. If we try to withhold the
elements to make it, her whole milk
yield will rapidly decrease.
BARLEY is the common stock feed
of Europe, and we need not be afraid
of it in this country.
"Rye is considered as affecting the
milk, somewhat for certain purposes.
1t probably should be fed sparingly.
coil meal should be fed sparingly.
1t is a costly feed, and a liberal allow.
ance of it may injure the butter. AS
it has a cooling effect on the system, a
little can often be used with great ad-
vantage.
"Cotton seed meal is not much used
by Western farmers. 1t is exceed
ingly nutritious, being rich in protein,
bat should be fed somewhat sparingly,
as it unfavorably affects the quality of
butter.
al shall not here speak of the fod.
ders, excepting to urge that every
dairyman have a silo or roo cellar.
Bach year we increase our apprecia-
ton o. the value of canned and fresh
fruits, 10 WI are coming to hold that
something s~ucculent must be provided
for u cattle during the long winters
if they are to give the best returns.
While roots are no doubt a choicer
feed, silsge is the cheaper and serves
much the same purpose. Those who
have not yet built a silo should not be
Indifferent, but study the question
this winter, visiting those of n~eighbors
and friends; and watch the effects of
the feed"

A NEW DISCOVERY
Great Southern Remedy

Having been a great sufferer, from child
hood, the result of protracted chills and indi-
gestiOn, terminating in diseases OF LIVER,
KIDNEY and URINARY ORGANS, and having
tried many remedies known to the profession
with only tempo rary relief. After much ex-
perimentlng, I succeeded In discovering q
combination of vegetable remedies, which
combination has proven a emedy for diseases
of all the internal organs superior to any
known in a life OF suffering and practice of
fifty years. As by it [ have bt en- restored
from what seemed to be inevitable death to
perfect hea tn, without any other medicine,
for those diseases over three years past. It
also Ell abled me to travel all the winter of
1888 and 1889, in the mountains, in all kinds
of weather, and eating any and everything set
before me with impunity. It has since cured
me of chills and prevented my taking ella
grippe" and relieved those of the late cpl
demic who tried it. 1t is also proving valua-
bic in many female diseases.

The census of 1890 in the United
States is essentially a republican affair.
1t is in the hands of men who can be
relied on to count up or down as party
exigencies require. Any place which
can hold out promise Of increasing con-
gressional representation in the in
terest of the republican party can be
relied on to get recount if demanded.
Where there is prospect OF a Demo-
cratic gain the case is different. New
York city. about whose Democracy
there is no question, now asks for a re-
count on the grounds that anywhere
from 100000 to 100000 were omitted
through the carelessness or ignorance
Of the enumerators. The census bu-
reau has denied the request. II the
number left out in New York were
100000, it means one Democratic con-
gresham less and one vote cut off in
the electoral college. If it should be
100000, that means two Democratic
congressman short and two pretty GER
tain votes less for a Democratic pres
idential candidate. The republicans
are adopts at counting-vide Richards,
