GOOD RESULTS CERTAIN.
Skim Milk the Best and Most Econom cal
Food for Lambs,

Skim Milk tho Best and Most Econom' cal
Food for Lambs.
Imake a especially of sheep and horses
and raise but few pigs, and SO cannot
tell the relative profit from feeding
skim milk to pigs and lambs. I keep
cows on purpose to get both fresh and
skim milk for colts and lambs and have
done so for some time with favorable
results. Such milk puts the bone and
muscle growth into all young animals
without making them too fat and with
out danger of over feeding them. feed
the lambs until they are one month old
milk skinned after standing twelve
hours only; then they will drink
any kind of skim milk. In cold wealth
er, warm the milk and mix with it
ground oats and oil meal. and from
such feed I can get all the growth 1
want in either lambs or colts EARLY
lamb raising is profitable when intelli-
gence and close attention are given to
the business, and in my mind early
lamb raising is in its infancy in our
country. In the first place, lambs are
usually dropped in May, SO that the
ewes can be on grass in warm weather
and they get no special attention. This
is wrong. The loss of lambs is too
great owing to such neglect. Thirty
per cent. more lambs will be saved if
dropped in February, while the sheep
are in winter quarters, where they can
have the shepherds care in lambing
and have their feed regulated as re-
quired under different circumstances,
and where the ewes can be made to
mother their lambs. Then, too, our
people are learning to eat and hence
demand good mutton, which early lamb
growing and forcing can alone supply.
With pork and mutton at present
prices, we should raise early mutton
lambs and feed them literally with
skinned milk, but should give with it,
either mixed or separately, oil meal to
counteract the constipation induced by
the mike. e. Breck, in Rural New

VALUE OF THE MOLE.
TIE Capacity Of the Little Animal for An
Sorts of Plant Pests.

TIE Capacity OF the Little Animal for An
Sorts of Plant Pests.
Maj. Rolsinger, of Rosedale, Kan,
read a paper before the Kansas Hortf-
cultural society at it's last meeting in
which he said: sit does seem that some-
thing should be done to preserve the
lawns from the unsightliness in which
the moles leave them. All around we
see evidences of their existence. But
let me call your attention to the condi-
tions of such lawns. Were to cut .
section of the sod, could show you tho
cause in quantities of white grubs. The
moles are present to feed on these
larvae, and could you but count the
numbers Of this enemy (the grub) to
horticulture, you would learn to esti-
mate at it's proper value the usefulness
of the mole.
Il think the time is coming when the
mole will be preserved and encouraged.
They are never killed on my grounds.
1 think the mole traps should be rele-
gated to the eighteenth century. Every
investigation goes to show that
on cereals and vegetables. When
confined (as they may be in a tight box)
they have been known to consume as
many as 700 grub worms in "a hours. I
placed in tight box in peck of soil
fifty-six white grubs, two cut-worms
and mole. Next day emptied and
carefully examined the contents, and
found five grubs with no worms. I
then took twenty-four grains of corn,
soaked SO as to be soft and tender, and
put them in the same box.e Two days
later. I emptied and counted the con-
tents. Result, twenty-four grains Of
corn and a badly shr.veled mole, show
ing signs of hunger. 1t was Mr.. Lands,
I think, who first came to the defense
of the mole. On his ground at Vine-
land, N. j., he paid 25 cents for all the
moles that were sent him. He was rid
iculed, but all know that his enterprise
was a success. To attack popular
idea is unpopular, and it takes long
time to work a reform; the mole trap
will be sold. Cultivate the moles, and
as soon as the larvae are erad;cated they
will leave the lawn for other pastures.
Depend upon it that wherever evil
dences of the mole are found, there
you will always find the white grub"

Ministers declare that in nine cases
out of ten brides are much more self
possessed than are bridegrooms when
the marriage cermony is being per-
formed.
A shy, modest looking little creature
robed in white will stand perfectly erect,
looking the minister calmly and square
~ in the eye without for an instant
losing her self-poise, while the big,
blunt six-footer of bridegroom by her
side is pale and nervous and trembling.
His fingers are likely to twitch nerv-
ously, and he may even hitch at his
trouser legs or twist corner of his
coat skirt.
was once"best man" to a stalwart,
middle-aged bridegroom, noted for his
courage and feats of daring, says a
writer, and when the time came for us
to go downstairs to meet the bride and
her attendants, he nearly had fit, and
he looked like walking corpse all
through the ceremony. had to keep
saying, "Brace up, old boy" and "Come,
come, you've got to go down." to get
him started at all; and at the door he
was idiotic enough to clutch at me aud
say:
''Say, Fred, how would it do to have
Mary and the preacher slip in here and
have it all over with before we go down
at all? can't go through it before all

''Idiot!" said briefly and pointedly
enough to leave no doubt as to my
meaning, ''Mary won't come in here,
and You will go down this Instant
He got through at last without doing
or saying anything ridiculous, in which
respect he was luclier than another
stalwart bridegroom of my acquaint-
ance, who was SO dazed and overcome
that he held out one of his own fingers
for the ring when the minister said:
''With this ring thee wed.''
Another bridegroom know lost his
head to such a degree that when it came
time for him to say, II, Horace, take
thee, Annie, to be my lawful welded
wife" he said, in an unnaturally loud
tone, II, Annie, take thee, Horace, to
be my lawful welded wife, and when
the time came for him to introduce his
bride to some of his friends who had
not yet seen her, he did it by saying,
awkwardly. "Ah, er-Miss Carter, this
is my wife, Miss Barton" calling her
by her maiden name.
Few men say ''my wife, easily and
naturally the first time they use the
words in public.
A funny case was that of badly
ratified bridegroom who stared blankly
at the minister until asked if he took
this woman to be his lawful welded
wife," when he started suddenly and
hastily. and said, in the blandest
manner:
"-..h! beg pardon, were you speaking
to me?''

but he shivered and turned pale at the
beginning of the ceremony, and at it's
close he fell down in a dead faint, to
the manifest annoyance of his bride,
