THE IDEAL FOOD.
Ensilage Alone Not Sufficient for Wintel

In an article in one Of our contempo-
raries the writer SAYS that fresh grass
is the standard summer food and that
for best results it must he initiated rs
closely as possible in winter. Is not
such declaration misleading? There
are thousands of people who know
nothing about the principles Of scien-
tific feeding. When such people read a
declaration like this, is it not to be ex-
pected that If they are influenced by 1t
at all. they will conclude that as the
general practice is to feed nothing hut
grass in summer. the practice advocated
is to feed something like ensilage exclu-
hively in winter. And if they do it?
disappointment of course. 1t will not
do to urge that the highest system OF
feeding in the dairy requires grain in
summer and that consequently the sys-
tenn is not materially different. 1t is
practically different. Wecan get along
with grass alone in summer, and the
vast majority do. We can not get along
with cnsilage alone in winter. It's moi
perfect fool.
Some green food in winter is advisa

large quantities of ensiiase, but she
must have other foods. The standard

company tho party, and Of course he
had to take his heavyweight son along
with him.
When they were once more seated in
one of the elegant suite of rooms which
Mrs Delaro occupied. Armida was the
first to speak
Where is Mr.. Breezy? Did he not
say he would wait until we re:nrned?'
Probably he felt too unwell to re-
main and went to his HOTEL said her
mother, but no sooner had she uttered
tho words than her maid came into the
room crying and sobbins: "Oh. Mrs
Delaro. they have taken Mr.. Breezy TO
the police station, and there has been
terrible trouble here"
Taken Mr.. Brcgy to the police sta
tion-why what do you mean?' asked
AIRS. Delaro.
AS we'll as she could. in her excited
state, the girl related how one Of the
porters, in passing the door which was
slightly ajar, had seen Mr.. Ercgy stand
ing over Miss Armidas writing desk
trying to open 1t. The man watched
him until he had opened 1t and when
Mr.. Breezy had hts hat on ready to leave
he rushed in and seized him. The
porter naturally felt justified in placing
him under arrest as he caught him Will,

said tho garrulous girl, ''for they have

he will be taken before the magistrate
in the morning"
Still Armida could not believe it, and
was determined to go and see Eugene
but as she could not 60 alone, shc &C
cepted Mr.. Blodger's offer to accompany
her.
While she was away on this errand
Percy Lowell told Mrs. Dclaro his story

Bump. bump! bulnpity! bump! and q

where Beth lay with what there was

So in about an hour mamma went up
TO the nursery. where Beth was sitting
in state. dressed in large black shawl
and mammals black garden hat, while
Lord Fauntleroy, looking very much
subdued, with large piece of black
cambria pinned around his neck, sat
In his small chair, close beside his
mother-in-law, Beth, who kept sharp

coat on. and stood behind the cigar box,
which contained poor Flossy's pieces,

Here Lord Fauntleroy seemed to

1t was decided not to take Lord

much trouble, SO Beth and Ethelwyn

accused herself OF numborless unwiso

Grover Cleveland as Pater-
familias.

&AAnAkfAS
Grover Cleveland and his charming
wife are today two of the happiest
people in the United States. The
advent to their home of their new
born daughter is a JOY to which place
and power can bear no comparison.
The prospects which open before them
OF happiness in the nurture and edu-
cation Of their child make all the
CANDY pleasures of political success
and magisterial display seem cold and
hollow.
Probably at no period OF their
career, either. could the happy couple
hope to enjoy the same amount OF
sympathetic interest as at this con-
juncture. Grover Cleveland possesses
the respect and esteem OF all honest
thinking men for his honesty, cour-
age and wisdom. Mrs Cleveland has
won the cordial admiration of all OBJ
servers by her womanly grace.
But however much they might gain
favor in their quasi public capacity, it
is in events like the present which APP
peal to every heart alike, that they
will find the most cordial and sympa-
thetic feeling among their fellow citi-
zens. The growth of a family circle is
q process OF superIative interest to so
domestic a people as ours In his
bacheiorhood Mr.. Cleveland never
commanded the same personal liking
that accrued to him when he took
unto himself a wife, and since
his good fortune has made him
the father of growing family all the
good married folk Of the land viii,
metaphorically speaking, take him to
their bosoms-make him a member OF

glafulations on this most pleasan
event. We heartily join in wishing

newcomer. many happy returns OF
the occasion. IT. besides. the popu-
larity which shIs event is bound to
bring him should give new vitality to
