Corn Stunted Pigs.

That corn alone is not good feed
for growing pigs, most practical farm
ers have learned, but many do not
give the true explanation of the fact.
'It is too hearty for the weaker di-
gestion of young animals, is the rea-
son assigned most frequently. But
is it true that young animals have
less power to digest than do those Of
mature age? We doubt much if this
be the fact. Young animals, properly
fed, make more:growth and fat from
the same amount of feed than those
animals which have attained their
growth. This would seem to indicate
that their digestive powers were
stronger, and this We believe to be
true. But growth imperatively re-
quires a fully balanced ration, which
corn is not. 1t does not contain in
sufficient proportions the elements for
making bone and muscle that are In
dispensable in the feed of growing
animals. 1t will make fat, but in a
small animal there is not sufficient
room to place it. Hence a pig fed
exclusively on corn grows 'podgy'
and fat, without increasing much in
size of frame. In time this does
spoil the digestion. The unbalanced
ration cannot be properly disposed of,
because as it produces only fat there
is no longer any room for it. No
other domestic animal suffers as does
the pig from this i'll feeding, because
no other is given so concentrated and
poorly balanced ration. Calves,
colts and lambs have hay, corn stalks
or straw in addition to corn, but
where straw or corn fodder are given
largely to growing stock, some other
food, if only wheat bran, should be
added to corn meal to supplement its
Deficiencies as food ration for young
animals. Linseed meal and cotton
seed meal are better than corn for
mixing with such coarse feeds.

Horses Get Too Much Hay.

When a boy on farm, says a
writer in Colman's Rural World, |
remember it was standing rule to
rake down a little hay into the horses
rack every time any On went into the
stable The r.>u.l W. the horses
wouIdo-,p 81. II .r.a.i g.. .'in,- nearly
all the tlme, ana b.cane pol-oeIiicd,
uusigAtly animals. Horses fed in
this way become mere machines, or
hay cutters; the nutrition Of the hay
is not assimilated, and large portion
OF it is wasted. BY such stutfing,
every organ in the body is interterred
with, and when put on the road or to
work on the farm a horse so fed can
not move with any comfort until re-
lieved of the superabundance of feed.
The disease known as heaves Is gen
orally due to over-driving when the
stomach is full Of hay. Bulk in feed
ing is necessary, but when the food is
nearly all bulk an extreme has been
reached, and it is time to change.
Hay should be fed with as much care
as grain is fed. Different horses re-
quire different qualities, and in feed
ing new horse it becomes a matter
of experiment until his wants are as
certaiued.

THE SUN

1890.

Some people agree with THE suns opin-
ions about men and things. and some people
don't; but everybody likes to get hold OF the
newspaper which is never dull and never
afraid TO speak its mind.
Democrats know that for twenty years THE
Sun has fought in the front line for Demo-
cratic principles, never wavering or weaken
ing in its loyalty TO the true interests of the
party it serves with fearless intelligence and
disinterested vigor. AT times opinions have
differed as to the best means OF accomplish
ing the CONN on purpose; IL is not THE SUN :
fault If il has seen further into the nil.
stone.
Eighteen hundred and ninety is the W !
that will probably determine the result -,
the Presidential election OF lsg2. aud perhaps
the fortunes of the Democracy for the rest ui
the century. Victory in 1872 is n duty, ana
the beginning of 1897 is the best time TO Start
out in company with The sun.

Liberal Manuring Pays.

Writing to the American Agricul-
turist, r. Franklin says: A couple of
years ago | undertook to make small
field, which was in rather poor condi-
ton, sufficiently rich to pay for cul-
tivating. Consequently, l hauled
upon it barnyard manure, chip dirt
from the woodward, slaughter-house
ofal and refuse, until the ground was
covered so deeply that the stuff could
hardly be plowed under. A neighbor
came along and criticised my methods.
That field would be rich-but the
rest of the farm kept poor" The
yield Of potatoes from the MANFRED
was at the rate, this season, Of $50
bushels per acre not an exceptional
yield, but a good one for this locality.
Sufficient to convince me, at least,
that | received a better profit from
the fertilizers than if they had been
thinly spread over a larger area. 4
little ground, made rich and well
worked, will pay better every time
than a large area of ground imper-
fectly worked. Which is only an
other way of saying that the last load
of manure, and the last turn Of the
cultivator on an acre, pays better
than the first one. And, until the
capacity of the first acre is measured,
it is folly to apply either to the second.

THE Civil Service Reform association Of
Pennsylvania issues a circular reciting tho
pledges given by the Republican party and
the president that civil service reform
should be supported. The circular goes on
to state that thero Is danger that In spite of
these professions the party in power will de-
feat the aim of the law by neglecting to pro-
vide the funds needed by the civil service
commission. "The spokesman finds IL
much more economical 10 pay his hench-
men and heelers out of the public treasury,
by the abuse of patronage than to pay
them out OF his own pocket. Although
more than three.fourths of the public
Offices arc still at his disposal, he grudges
the loss of the one-fourth, and yearns to
recover it. He does not dare to work
openly for the repeal of the law, for this ho
knows the people would not forgive, but
he proposes to attain the same end by re-
ducing or refusing the appropriations
necessary for its execution. Provided he
accomplishes the end of quarlerng his
followers on the public, he cares nothing
for the brand of falso pretenccs sclf-aflix cd
by his disregard of the pledges on which
he and his party sought and obtained
votes" Senator Farwell, of Illinois, is
quoted as declaring tho civil service
system fraud of the worst description and
then refusing to introduce bill for its
destruction because, he says "Wecan do
just as well by refusing to appropriate the
funds on which it depends. 1t was beaten
that way before, and we are going to do our
best to beat II that way once more" The
circular comments on the dishonesty of
thus repudiating the party platform and the
messages of President Harrison which have
professed to favor civil service reform.

wealth are only fully realized by the
wealthy. Not long ago Brice was poor
unknown attorney ; now he Is worth
half dozen millions, United states
senator, and one of the most prominent
figures in the country. OF course, every
body wants 10 know just how 1t hap
pened, and In news, ns In everything
else, the demand creates the supply. but
circumstances fix the quality. The sto-
ries Of the sudden arrival of the wealth
of Brice all agree that II came by stock
speculation for another man, who gen.
crously shared with the poor young at
torney, who had served Us the medium
of his good luck.
According to one tale young Brice
telegraphed TO the man for whom he was
speculating asking instructions In an
emergency. The telegraph operator sent
him the wrong message In some quite
mysterious way and the result was vast
profit by mistake. Another and more
probable story represents the lucky
Brce as making a careful study OF the
stocks in which his employer was In
terested and then deliberately disobey-
ing OTucTS anu InuhIuB iWtehS' AS
fascination of these stories Is like that OF
the childhood tales of magic and en-
chantment by which the worthy hero
finds vast hidden treasures and many
troubles and finally gets rid of the latter
and lives happily. With magical rapid
ity man is rich and famous, and that
fact quite eclipses the first essential of
the nursery tale and the newspaper
yarn-the personal worth of the man
himself If Mr.. Brice had not this per-
sonal value of mind and character he
would never have been found by friendly
fortune working hard as trusted agent
on Wall street. The record Of his sue
cess will tempt many who lack his quail
tiles to try to strike his luck In stock
speculation, but they might rs well buy
a ticket in the Louisiana lottery. There
is fortunately an elusive character about
sudden wealth that discourages Its pur-
suit or we would all bc spectators. The
calm observer notes that II IL always
coupled with sudden poverty, and the
stories Of Mr.. Brice fail to tell who got
poor when he got rich.
