The Best BATTLES Of the War.

John @. Ropes in an article on "The
War as We See IL Now" printed in
Scri6ner'S, is responsible for the follow
ing,
The national instinct on this subject
Is perfectly correct. IL was at Gettys-
burg and Chlcksmauga that our Ameri-
can armies were at their best and did
their best. Never were they-either be-
fore or after those memorable engage
ments--so stron g, so well offcered, so
fierce, SO determined to win, so resolved
not to yield. They were then, we re-
peat, at their containing none but
seasoned troops, under veteran officers,
Injured to war, both armies confident OF
victory, and pretty nearly, taking all
things together, equally matched. And
no one can read the story of those great
battle without being proud of his couu-
try and his face, for never was there
more fesolute and obstinate and gallant
fighting done, nor ever were severe losses
more unshtinkingly borne. Nor can it
be truly said of either of these battles
that the beaten army did not fight as
hard and as long as its more successful
antagonist. There is glory enough for
all. Hence 1t is fitting that both fields
Gettysburg and Chickamauga-should
be dedicated to the perpetual remem-
brance of the great battles so worthily
fought there.

TO FEED FOR EGGS,

A correspondent OF the California
Cacller, IN relation to feeding laying
fowls, communicates the following:
There has been very great complaint
in some sections about the hens not lay
ing as they should.
think every case can be accounted
for. l was recently called in to see n
lady's flock of eighty eight hens, that
were looking, to say the least, fine, yet
she said she was not getting as many
eggs from them as l was from a pen of
eight that were always confined in a yard
Sx2O, with tight house, and hers had
free range. ! purchased a dozen from
her, and after killing couple found
that her hens had not sufficient food to
produce eggs.
While this believe to be generally the
cause of failure of eggs, yet it is not al
ways; some feed too high, and not that
food which will produce eggs. l have
been for some time experimenting on
what kinds of food will produce best re-
suits, and have found the following by
far the best: Bran or barley in the morn
in, scalded with milk; give all they will
eat up clean. In this we have that
which is generally acknowledged to pro-
duce the greatest per cent. of the white
Of an egg and very little fat.
AT noon feed wheat or screenings. In
this we have the lime for shell and also a
good per cent. of the yolk. Give all they
want, and if you have an ash or manure
pile mix little in for them to scratch
after.
At night give a liberal feed of corn,
ard do not be afraid of making too fat.
do believe, contrary to the opinions of
some, that corn will produce eggs, and
lots of them, especially in winter.
Feed beef scraps every other day
(cooked), and plenty of bone meal, with
liberal supply of green food every day
Hens fed in this manner must lay, if
any good at all; if not, get rid of them.
An old saying, and true one, is that a
hen properly fed must lay or get fat. OF
course this will not apply through moult-
ing time.

POPULARITY OF ENsrLAeE.

1t is unquestionably true that ensilage
has greatly increased in popularity dur
ing the past few years. A large proper
tion of farmers who have tested it, and
who have reported the results of their
experiments, have been well pleased with
the returns they have received. At the
same time the current does not all set one
way. There is q minority who are not
entirely suited. Aud there are many
feeders who, while believing that it is
profitable to use, have found that some of
the claims put forth by its more jealous
advocates, were highly exaggerated. 1t
is not so much better or cheaper than
every thing else, as it has been sometimes
represented to be. The men who believe
in feeding roots aie assuring their readers
that the dalryman can make as much
money by raising roots as he can by
growing ensilage. In a test in feeding
dairy COWS at the Ohio Experiment Sta
tion mangels gave little better returns
than ensilage. 1t is claimed that as great
weight of mangels per acre can be OBJ
tanned as of ensilage, and that, even
when eusilage is used, the mangels will
make q useful addition to the food supply.
That manglcs are excellent winter food
for cows cannot be denied. 1t is possible,
however, that the cost of growing them
las been somewhat underestimated.- -

and when this is done, IN order to keep
tho lambs digestion in good order, add
to its food a teaspoouful of flaxseed jelly
once daily. The jelly is made by boiling
haxseed in eight times its bulk of water
for twenty minutes.
II the weather is very cold when The
lamb is brought in, we keep it for few
days in a box in the back kitchen, where
big wood fire burns day and night.
Here 1t lies and sleeps on the clean straw
covered with an old blanket, only awak-
ening at its regular feeding times, when
it begins a piteous and plaintive bleat
that stops only when its hunger Is ap.
peased. It is not long, though, before
the little fellow learns TO jump out OF his
box and then he goes frisking about,
poking his inquistive little nose into
everything, searching for something to
eat. Then, lest no runs into the fire,
have to Danish him 20 an outhouse, or on
bright sunny days to the garden where
he soon learns to nibblo the rose bushes
and tender shrubs in the dainty manner
peculiar to sheep. This is one trouble
with pet lambs, they begin to eat en-.
tirely too early, filling their stomachs
with food they cannot digest. To obviate
this to some extent, we continue to feed
the lambs milk ofteuer and for longer
period than would otherwise be abso-
lutely necessary. They are greedy little
animals, and when allowed to come about
the yard aud kitchen rapidly acquire ID
taste for all sorts of things.
When first began raising pet lambs,
l used to feed them from the bottle,
which was a great deal OF trouble; now
use the bottle and rubber only for few
days at first, and then teach the lamb
to drink by pouring tho milk into
shallow pan and letting the lamb take
one finger in its mouth, slowly immers-
ing my hand IN the milk until it is able
to draw little iato its mouth. At first
the little fellow is sure that he gets tho
milk from the end Of my finger, but he
soon learns better, and dispensing with
my finger altogether, he plunges his
eager mouth down into the pan of milk,
and after lunging about awhile, feeling
for something to take hold of, and half
strangling himself, he settles down to
business, and the milk disappears in
marvelously short space of time. do
not know that there is any real profit in
raising lambs by hand. The milk they
consume, and the time required for car
ing for them are doubtless worth more
than the lambs themselves; still, rather
than see them die, we always take them
for pets. They make the most gentle
and most interesting pets in the world,
aud we soon become so attached to them
that the work of attending to them be-
comes pleasure. They are grateful too,
and repay our care with such quick
interest, grow so fast and keep so healthy,
that it seems but little while that they
need feeding so often.-Amerieaa Agri.

CARE oF pIsowNEp LANDS.

1t frequently happens in the spring
that one or more lambs in the flock are
orphaned from some cause OF other, and
rather than permit them to perish we
have them brought to the house and
raised by the hand. Sometimes q
eve refuses to own her lamb, another
will appear to think all the world of her
offspring but will be unable to furnish
drop of milk for its subsistence, while
third perhaps dies, leaving her little one
helpless and miserable. If the lamb is
healthy when it is brought in it is al
ways ravenously hungry, and before we
learned the danger of overfeeding we lost
one or two trying to satisfy their appetite.
The first meal of cows milk given to a
lamb should be not more than one-fourth
of gill, which quantity may be gradu-
ally increased to half pint given every
two hours when the lamb is one week
old. This is enough for large healthy
lamb; a small delicate one should have
even less.
When very young, lambs are liable to
to be troubled with scours, in which case
the milk should be boiled for one or two
meals. If the opposite tendency is OBJ
served, a little white sugar or molasses
put in the milk will generally prove a
corrective; when it does not, however, a
teaspoonful Of castor oil should be given
in the milk as often as considered neces-
sary. The milk must be perfectly sweet,
as fresh as possible, and slightly warmed.
After two weeks the interval between
feeding should be gradually heightened,
and the quantity of milk increased, as q
robust lamb at the age of two months
can take with impunity one and hall
plnts three times day, and when three
months old this quantity twice a day is
sufficient. When the lamb is few
weeks old, if milk is scarce, half the
quantity advised may bg given, mixed
with the same amount of we'll cooked

Mr.. Justice Hawkins said in 1Ss3 at the
opening of the Durham Assizes, that he "had
considerable experience in courts of law, and
every day he livei the more firmly did he
come to the conclusion that the root of all
crime was drink. 1t affected people of all
ages and both sexes-the middle-age1 the
young, the father, the son. the husband, and
the wife, 1t was drink which was the in
centlve to crimes of dishonesty; a man stole
in order that he might provide himself with
the means of getting drink. 1t was drink
which caused homes to be impoverished, and
they could trace to its source the cause of
misery which was to be found in many cot
tage home which had been denuded of all the
necessities of life. He believed that nine
tenths of the crimes of this country, and
certainly of the county of Durham, were
engendered within public houses And
again, on March ID, 1922, charging tho grand
jury at Stafford, the same judge remarked
that he believed "that eighty per cent. of
the punishable crime of this country was
caused by drink-at least eighty per cent. of

TEMPERANCE NEWS AND NOTES.

Paregoric is a favorite intoxicant in the
prohibition districts of Maine.
The first Convention of the Worlds
Woman's Christian Temperance Union will
be held in fremont Temple, Boston, in No
vember, 1891.
1t has been proved by statistics that life
insurance company ON the total abstinence
basis gains thirty per cent. by reason of the
superior vitality OF its policyholders.
In Ireland the number of arrests fol.
drunkenness steadily increases. In 1887
there were 20, 600 arrests for that cause; in
1888 the number reaches 81, 900 and in 1883
climbs up T. 81, 600.
China now has a National W. C. 4. u,
with the necessary equipment of general Of

organized by Mrs. Leavitt in her first tour
of the world, all but one are hourishing.
Mr.. d. Lloyd George, NJ. P. for Carnarvon,
in contrasting temperance sentiment in the
country forty or fifty years ago with the
present day noted the fact that Charles
Dickens has not a single teetOtaller among
his male characters, whereas it would be im-
possible for Charles Dickens of our days TO
ignore them. There were 100 teetotallers in
the House OF Commons.
Finland appears to be the most favored
country in the world as regards temperance
