HEETS AS FOOD FOR COWS.

A bulletin Of the Ohio Agricultural
Experiment Station, now i'll press, gives
the result of an experiment in feeding
sugar bccts to milch COWS, made during
the past winter, together with summary
of two similar experiments, one made by
the station in 1889 aud one by the farm
department of the Ohio State University
in 1879.
In the last named experiment eight
cows were kept under test for eleven
weeks; in 1899, twelve cows for eight
weeks, and in 1890, twelve COWS Tor
nine weeks, the COWS in each case being
weighed daily, as well as their feel and
milk.
in each of the three experiments the
COWS ate more hay and more total dry
matter when feeding on bects than on
other foods (hay, meal and bran in 1879,
corn silage in 1889 and 1S9O), and in
each case more milk was given from the
beets than from the other foods, but it is
not yet demonstrated that the increase of
milk was produced economically.
For twelve years records have been
kept on the farm now occupied by the
station, which shows that the average
yield of bcets over this period has been
nearly sixteen tons per acre, against an
annual yield of about tifty-tive bushels of
shelled corn per acre.
But Il crop of tifty-tive bushels of
shelled corn, with its fodder, will contain
nearly twice as much dry matter as SIX
teen tons of beets, and these experiments
indicate that, whether fed dry, as corn
meal and dry fodder, or as corn ensilagc,
the dry matter of the corn crop will be
found about rs effective, pound for
pound, as the dry matter of the beet
crop
1t is possible to raise much more than
sixteen tons of beets to the acre. Ono
crop of two acres is reported at thirty
seven and half tons per acre, and smaller
areas have given still larger yields, but
such crops require very rich land and
thorough culture. Whether it is posi-
bic to produce pound of dry matter in
bccts rs economically as it can be done
in corn is not yet definitely settled, but
the probabilities arc against it.

WALKING HORSES.

One of tho most desirable and valuable
gaits for horse is walk, and it should
be the aim to first develop this gait in
the handling of the colt. The good
walker will always make good time on the
road when a days journey is to he made,
without wearying himself, while the slow
moper must be constantly kept on the
trot, if time is to he made. \ horse that
will walk five miles per hour will go as
far in day, confined to this gait, as an
ordinary horse can be driven when kept
half of the time on the trot, and with
much greater case to himself. If one
half the pains were taken by farmers
boys to make fast walkers of the young
sters on the farm that is usually taken 20
make them trot, the result would be
much more beneficial, and We would find
plenty of teams that could do their five
miles an hour with case. But instead of
this, as soon rs the colt is bridled, the
sole aim of "the boys is make trottcr

Color in Baltic.

While military men are insisting that
the rcd coat of the British soldier and
the red trousers of the French soldier are
dangerous, because their colors. render
them peculiarly liable to be hit no one
seems to have noticed that black is the
most deadly of colors, while white is the
safest. This has been shown over and
over again in the fights which occasionally
take place in the Southern States between
black and white citizens. At the last OF
these fights, which took place III Atlanta,
four blacks were killed and eight
wounded, while only two white men
were hit and neither of the two were
killed. This shows that black man is
six times as liable to he hit by bullets as
Il white man. SO, too, in conflicts be-
tween red men and white men, the former
are hit about twice rs often rs the latter.
1t is hence evident that soldiers should he
dressed exclusively in white, and that the
Austrians made Il mistake i'll abandoning
their famous white coats. - Parlst Franccl

LylIla Marin Child.

The present generation hears little OF
lydia Maria Child, of whom the poet
Whittier wrote, 1T is not too much to
say she was the most popular literary
woman in the United States"
In her home life, says Mr.. Hudson
in the Ne1o England Magazine, q
large share OF the day was spent in
writing. and at night she would read
what she had written to her husband,
and submit it to his criticism and sug-
gestion. The dependence upon each
other in their home life was mutual,
and each appreciated the other. Her
husband once said to her:
Il wish for your sake, dear, 1 was as
rich as Crnsus."
"You are Crnsus," answered Mrs.
Child, "for you are king of Lydia"
Whether at home or abroad, she was
plainly dressed. Her bonnets were al
most alike, and evidently the old was
not exchanged for the new because OF
change in the style. 1t is said that
one Of her distinguished literary friends,
when he saw her one day in Boston
with q new bonnet, exclaimed, There
will be change soon, for Maria has a
new bonnet'
A minister who was spending a day
at Wayland, seeing her 60 by and not
knowing who she was, exclaimed, Il
have seen what I never expected to sec
apain-a woman with bonnet on!'
Her bonnets were large, and gener-
ally trimmed with green, and at one
time when New York friends sent her u
bonnet made in the prevailing stvle,
she trimmed it over to suit her own

THE GUINEA FOWL.

It is true that the Guinea fowl is not
considered valuable bird for either flesh
or eggs, yet in its proper place it is use
full to the farmer. Being ever on the
alert for con ing danger they will answer
the purpose of watchman. 1t is a good
plan to keep one or two pair, letting
them run aud roost with the hens. The
hawks will not catch any chicks when a
Guinea is near; they give an alarm which
all chickens heed and know. They are
remarkable in beauty of feather, and few
fouls can in any way compare with them
in plumage. Guineas are nothing more
than ornamental fowls, and kept princi-
pally for display and watch guards

EFFECTS OF ovERFEEDING FIGS.

An overfed pig is apt to become
paralyzed in the loins by the effects of
uremia, or absorption of urea iu the
blood by reason of indigestion and dis
turbance of the kidneys. The animal
loses the use of the hind limbs and drags
itself about by its fore legs. OF course
this disordercd blood affects the flesh
and renders it undesirable for food. The
disease is chiefly situated in the spinal
cord or its covering membrane, which is
infamcd and so disturbs the action of the
nervous system of the muscles of the
loins and hind limbs. The remedy is to
reduce the food, giving laxative medi-
cincs and applying counterirritauts to the
loins. Turpcutinc rubbed on the loins is
useful, and doses of one tablespoonful
once day with twice as much linseed
oil should be given daily for few days.
The food should consist of grass, clover,
potatoes and oatmeal, or barlcymeal slop
given in moderation until the trouble is
removed. Pigs thus diseased should not
be used for brceding.-MW York. Times.

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

Poor rations make poor hogs.
A squcaling pig never grows fat.
Don't use Paris green on cabbage.
Profitable exercisc-killing weeds.
Forest fires start easily; be cautious.
A wcll-kept lawn beauties the home.
\ dropped match may burn the barn.
Allow no Canada thistlcs to ripcn
seed.
Good soil and culture make good
crops.
Don't forget that turnips are good for
sheep.
Spade up yards; keep the fowls
scratching.
Substituting one odor for another is
not disinfectiug.
A tight barn is better than an open
one to keep hay in.
Don't pour water on your flower beds;
always use sprinkler.
Begin to get rid of your poor stock
aud to prepare for winter.
Twenty-Five healthy fowls are worth
one hundred half-sick ones.
In laying drain tiles put them below
frost line and grade as evenly as pos
sibe.
If you want to SOW turnip seed evenly
mix a pound of seed with a peck of
sand.
The farmer should buy labor-saving
inventions for his wife as well as for
himself.
A mixture of salt, bone meal and ashes
will do no harm if kept where stock can
get at it.
A dry. airy place is the best one in
which to spread potatoes until cold
weather sets In.
"The man, the COW ard the feed have
more influence than tie SYSTEM" says
Professor Cook.
What is the use of getting rid of quack
grass, if you can't make something better
grow in its place2
Keep the weeds from going t. seed if
you want to lessen the work of killing
weeds next summer.
Keep your chickens tame. They do
better in every way; besides, it is
great deal of satisfaction.
If YOU are searching your flock for the
good layers, select the pullcts that have
large combs and long bodies.
When thrcshing take good care of the
straw. Bright, clean straw is better for
bedling as well az for feeding.
Sheep seem to need new pastures more
than bovine stock does. They nip closer
and tread the feed down worse.
Any grass land that will not yield u
ton and Il half of hay per acre should be
brokca up ut once after moving and
planted with something; even crop of
millct will pay better than neglect and
no late crop at all.
1t has been discovered that few hens
with young broods kept and fed i'll au
onion patch are an excellent remedy
for the prevalent maggot. A hen turkey
coopeu with score of young ones will
clear all the flies and young maggots from
an acre of onions.

breeds which have been bred for dairy
purposes. One COW, or a dozen COWS,
from any one breed, does not settle the
