FARM AND GARDEN.
RYE FOR STOCK.
Is 1t, or Is IL Not, Proper Food for
Breeding Animals?

Is 1t, or Is 1t Not, Proper Food for
Breeding Animaisy
Breeders of all kinds Of stock are CIV
ing more and more attention TO the ele-
ments of food as shown by analyses
The grains possessing large proper
ton of the constituents desired at any
particular period OF growth are noted
well by progressive men. While feed
ing for growth and for the block is an
important question, it rs more impor-
tant to know how to feed young stock
intended for breeding purposes. of
late, much interest has been aroused by
the claims of intelligent men in regard
to rye grain Tor meal for young stock.
While rye is highly priced for furnish
ing a variety in the food of fattening
hogs as well as a part ration for work
horses, there is, occasionally, man
who feels confident that rye grain is
dangerous in any form to feed breeding
stock. just now the young things on
the farm are taking to the oats, etc,
and it is serious question with all who
have rye whether this grain should be
kept away from all except those not in
tended for breeding.
The editor of this department is in
doubt on this point, while entertaining
grave respect for the opinions of those
who oppose the use of this grain in such
cases. The presence of ergot may at
times affect females after conceptions;
but ergot is found in all of the grains to
a greater or less extent. So on this ac-
count the rye is not necessarily the
A<s,, l.
for conclusion we invite brief expe-
riences from our readers who have had
five years or more experience with this
grain and breeding stock. Publication
of the names of writer's will be with
held when requested, and only an alb
stract of the opinion of any one is like
ly to be used. Any one, therefore, who
has conviction for or against the use
of this article of food for breeding
stock, will confer favor by writing it
in as few words as possible, giving also,
in brief, his theory for the faith ex-
pressed. We are willing TO be convinced
to the contrary, but will state our be-
lief that the rye itself is not hostile to
fertility in any animal. If fed in ex-
cessive quantity it may, in view of its
richness, affect the provocative organs.
The same result may follow the use of
corn, wheat, beans, peas, etc. In such
cases, however, the fault is with tn
excessive use and not with any insid-
ious quality in the grain. All must ad-
nit the richness of this article of food,
and the boys and men about the barn
must know that a much smaller part of
rye is to be used than of the ordinary
grain. Now, for other practical expe-
riences. Orange Judd Farmer.

FINANCIAL FAILURES.
That Is What "a ST. Louis Minister Cal
Clergymen in Search of Wealth.

That Is What "a ST. Louis Minister Calls
CIergymen in Search of Wealth.
The failure in business of promi
nent clergyman suggests the fact that
very few preachers ever succeed in max
ing money. When they do the religion
generally oozes out as the dollars come
in, and they end by giving up minis
terial work altogether. Preachers, par
ticularly Methodist preachers, are al
most always poor, and the next to them
in point of poverty are the Baptists.
The majorit of Methodist preachers in
this country receive less than 5000
year, while the constant demands for
charity greatly diminish their incomes.
Presbyterian clergy are better paid,
while the Chareh of England ministers,
both here and in Great Britain, fairly
roll in wealth by comparison. The En-
glish Bishops have princely incomes,
the lowest being $4,000 a year
and the use of mansion
connected with the cathedral.
The Archbishop of York, who is ''Pri-
mate of England" has $50, 900 a year.
and the hbishop of Canterbury, who
is "Primate of all England" receives
S15, 900 and has two magnificent palaces.
Methodist Bishops are poorly paid.
Those of the Methodist Church South
have $1,000 salary, while those Of the
Church North have a little more, but
none of tLem lay by any thing of their
salaries. Bishop Warren, of the Church
North, is rich, having married the widow
Of a ranchman in Denver. But Bishop
Hendrix, of the Methodist Church South,
enjoys the distinction of being the
richest Bishop in America, having in
herited a fortune, which, by careful
management he has greatly increased.
He has the reputation of being both be-
nevolent and rich. To schools and col
leges he is especially liberal, and Gen.
trail College, in this State, owes its pres
ent prosperity to his generosity. All
the other Southern Methods Bishops
are poor.-Rev. DIR. Wilson, in St Louis

The Average American Girl Does Not
Speak Softly as She should.
"a charming girl for man of a
quiet, easy temperament The great
trouble is with her voice. It is pitched
a full note too high. 1t is aggressive,
disturbing, and would wear out nerv-
Gus man without his ever knowing what
was the matter with him. A good many
crazy Northern people would recover
their reason if they could live for a
year or two among the blacks of the
Southern States. But the penetrating,
perturbing quality of the voices Of many
of our Northern women.has great deal
to answer for in the way of determining
love and friendship. You remember
that dear friend of ours who left us not
long since? If there were more voices
like hers, the world would be different
place to live in. | do not believe any
man or woman ever came within the
range of those sweet, tranquil tones
without being hushed, captivated, en-
tranced / might almost say, by their
calming, soothing influence. Can you
not imagine the tones in which those
words, Peace, be STILL were spoken?
Such was the effect of the voice to
which but few weeks ago we were
listening. 1t is hard to believe that it
has died out of human consciousness.
Can such a voice DO spared from that
world of happiness to which we fondly
look forward, where we love to dream,
if we do not believe with assured con-
viction, and whatever is loveliest in
this, our mortal condition shall be with
us again as an undying possession?
Your English friend has very agree
able voice, round, mellow, cherry. and
her articulation is charming. Other
things being equal, l think you. who
are, perhaps, over sensitive, would live
from two TO three years longer with her
than with the other. ! suppose a man

ing brook would find his life shortened

will stand more prying, although there
is danger of prying too hard. What is
needed is a similar tool, no larger, but
of thicker steel. Would it not pay the
manufacturer to put such one in mar
ket? The Hazeltine hand-weeder is
another very useful tool, but for several
purposes (such as seding or stirring
the soil among plants in the center of
cold-frames, hot-beds. etc., it may be
much improved by removing the origt-
nal handle and substituting a small
broom handle. 1t is also of advantage
to form V-shaLed notch in the end of

easily catch on to the plants, and as it

Criminal Assault.

He is Under Arrest Now on a Charge of
Criminal Assault.
E. ]. STATESMAN, the man who caused the
Chinese uprising several weeks ago on the
Costumes, in which man named Pierson
lost his life, was arrested yesterday after
noon on charge of criminal assault.
Startsman, it appears, has been in the
habit of putting up his team at SERVER
stable, and for several days past was &C.
companied by little girl about ten years
of age. On Monday evening he left her at
the stable, saying he would return soon.
SERVER procured accommodations Tor the
child at a lodging house. Startsman was
not seen again and Mr.. SERVER sent word
to the police to come and get the child.
Chief Drew sent an officer for the little
girl, and when she arrived at the police
station, questioned her closely as to what
she had been doing. She was reticent at
first, but finally consented to tell what she
knew
She said her name was Florence Butterheld
and that her father was night foreman at
CaIey's car stables. On Wednesday last
she met Startsman on the Yolo bridge, and
upon his invitation took ride on his
wagon. He took her out to Brighton,
where ne bought a load of grapes and re-.
turned to this city. That night he took her
to lodging house on Fifth street. She re-
manned in his company for several days
thereafter, and they stopped at different
lodging houses. He told people that she
was his niece. Several times during the
time she was in his company, she said, he
assaulted her, ald told her that if she ever
told any one of it "she would be hung"
The child underwent a medical examina-
ton last evening, and the report of the
physicians to some extent substantiates her
story.
Startsman, after his arrest, denied all
knowledge of the child, but when con-
fronted with evidence wilted and admitted
that he had been in her company. He
persisted, however, that he had not as

Daniel Frohman's production of Mark
Twains Prince and Pauper," with Elsie
Leslie and the New York cast, will be put
upon the stage at the Metropolitan Theater
for the first time on Friday night. The
piece may be termed prose idyl. As
domestic story there is none prettier in the
English language. Its characters stand
out wildly like figures in a painting and
its scenes are described with a realism
rarely equaled. Tenderness. pathos and
most exquisite humor permeate it. The
story is beautifully told by its gifted
author, and is said to be enhanced by Mrs.
Abby Sage Richardson's dramstiza;ion of
it. Mark Twain's popularity viii give the
