ITO be Continued,
PRINCES,
One Who Smoked SO Cigars and Lost
Si50 900 in n Single Night.

Bankruptcy appears to be becoming
fashionable among the great Princes
of Germany. Within the last two
months Prince Albert, of the sovereign
house of Waldcck, Prince Charles, of
The reigning family of L;echtenstein,
and Prince Trautmannsdortf have all
have all three been declared insolvent
debtors and placed 'unter curatelie."
and now Prince Frederick w., of
Saimi-Kyrhnrg, has been subjected 10
a similar ignominy. F%orty-four years
of age and the possessor of numerous
titles, including that of a R%hincgrave
and of a Spanish Grandce Of the first
class, his debts at present mount to
about $4,000, 900. During the course
of the legal proceedings it was shown
that until his fathers death he had
been forced to content himself with Il
paltry allowance of 81. 200 per annum,
which. although possibly sufficient for
the wants Of an ordinary mortal, was
far from adequate for IL high and nigh
ty prince who refuses to smoke any
thing but Havana cigars at So a piece.
Under the circumstances it is not sur
prising that it should have been y to-
bacco merchant who first instituted
the steps that finally landed his high
ness in the bankruptcy court and re-
suited in his being placed "nnter Ira
tclle." This '.untcr curatcllen condi-
ton is IL that is exceedingly unplcas-
ant. 1t is equivalent to a declaration
of perpetual minority, and the person
on whom it is imposed is not only de-
clared incapable of managing his own
affairs, but is practically outlawed and
deprived of the electoral franchise and
almost every other right of citizenship.
No civil contract entered into by hin,
is valid. His signature is of no account
in point of law, and from the legal
point of view he is ~nobody-as unsnb-
s%tantial as a babe unborn. Prince
Trautmannsdorf was the President of
the Australian Jockey Club, where he
lost in single night $3.50, 900 ut cards.
With a view of retrieving his fortunes
he straightway purchased for a rise Il
large number of options on wheat and
other cereals, which, however. greatly
to his dismay, took adownward instead
of an upward course, rendering him
thereby liable for differences to the tune
of IS, O00, 600.

FOR THE FARMERS
An Interesting Experiment in the
Feeding of Young Calves.
When Fruit Canning Originated
The Yield of Wheat in France
The Turnip Crop.

We had November 1, 1889, fifteen
calves, ten of which had followed their
mothers and five were fed skim milk,
writes a correspondent of the Plain
view (Neh.) News. Those that had run
with the COWS were fat, md we decided
to experiment with them in feeding;
but it being more convenient, we fed
altogether, not expecting TO make much
out of the skim milk calves. After
teaching them to ea: oats, we gave
them a daily feed of about four quarts
each for six weeks, and then increased
to six quarts. At the end OF two
months commenced a ration of two
quarts of oats to one of corn, and fed
that way for about sixty days longer,
increasing the quantity of each q
little. The last ten weeks they
had two parts corr and one part
oats, and at the very last consumed ten
quarts or more each. We have aver
aged up the feed and find that they ate
about fifty bushels of grain and one ton
OF hay each in the 200 days they were
fed. Their ages ranged when sold from
10 to Ia months and weights from 725 to
995 pounds. We have estimated the
kinds of grain on the average as about
half and half. Corn at 20 cents per
bushel and bats at II cents, making the
measured bushel Of mixed feed worth
20 cents. The average value of the
calves was about SO November i; so
bushels of grain, $40; ton of hay, SO;
making 1923. With the exception OF two
skim-milk calves, they sold for 81 per
100, and averaged7s pounds each, max

for my grain than it would have brought
at the elevator. The manure we have
not considered, but it must be borne in
mind that the manure nowadays has an
intrinsic value and much more than
pays for the trouble of feeding cattle.
The calves were dehorned in the spring
and fed in the open air in a trough, hay

shed to go under when too cold-not

used to the grain it was constantly kept

hest Food for Young Chick..

Although many foods have been rec
commended for Young chicks, we have
always had excellent success with stale
bread and oatmeal, fed in tho dry con-
dition, until the chicks are 10 days old,
when they may then be given cracked
corn and wheat screenings also, says
the Kansas Farmer. Too much soft
food is not wholesome for them. Chicks
prefer dry food, and it serves the pur-
pose better and entails less labor in
preparation. Corn bread alone is in
sufficient, but it may be improved when
dipped in milk.

The Possibllitles of Whent Cultur..

Some thirty years ago the French
considered a wheat crop quite good
when it yielded twenty-five bushels to
the acre: but with the same soil the
present requirement is at least thirty
three bushels. while in the best soils
the crop only is coed when it Yields
from forty-three to forty-eight bushels,
and occasionally the crop is as much as
~ffty-five and a half to the acre, writes
Prince kropotkin in the Forum. There
are whole countries-Hesse for example
which are satisfied only when the
average crop attains thirtv-seven bush
els; while the experimental farms of
central France produce from year to
year. over large areas, forty.one bush
els to the acre, and a number of farms
in northern France regularly yield,
year after year, from fifty-fve to
siXty-eight bushels to the acre. Occa-
%sionally. even SO much as eighty bush
els has been obtained upon limited areas
under special care. In fact, it is now
proved that by combining a series of
such simple operations as the selection
OF seeds, sowing in rows and proper ma
nuring the crop can be increased by at
least 10 per cent. over the best present
average, while the cost OF production
can be reduced by 50 per cent. by the
use of some inexpensive machinery. to
say nothing of costly machines like the
steam digger, or the pulverizers which
make the soil required for zach special
culture. They are now occasionally re-
sorted to here and there, but they will
come into general use as soon as hu.
mainly feels the need of increasing the
agricultural product tenfold.

Turnips.


The turnip crop is not Of great value
in this land of cheap corn, but it often
happens that a few turnips can be grown
where nothing else can, and they never
come amiss either for late fall or early
spring feeding, says the Western Stock
the labor in growing turnips that our
Canadian neighbors do. In the Domin-
ion this crop is planted in rows and
hoed, thinned and cultivated with as
much care as the crop gets in European
countries. But we can give the turnip
attention enough to get it we'll started
after thatit will take care of itself. Any
fertile soil will produce turnips, though
a sandy loan is the best. The ground
should be cultivated till it is thoroughly
smooth and mellow, and If it has pre-
viously been deeply plowed SO much the
better. A soil that has produced a crop
of early potatoes or onions, or that for
some cause has missed a stand of corn,
will generally produce a crop of turnips
to good advantage, The best of the
small or Swede variety of turnips is the
red top, strap leaved. 1t is almost sure
to produce a crop OF roots when not
planted too thick. Tho best time for
sowing this variety Of turn;ps is tho
middle of July, but they may be sown
as late as tho first of August, and will
produce a fair crop if they get a shower
soon after sowing. The seed may be
sown broadcast at the rate of about one
half pound per acre. Care must be
taken to get the seeding even and thin
enough, for turnips will not grow where
no seed has been sown, nor will they
form root whero they are sown too
thickly.
