OATS VERSUS BRAN.

Results of Experiments Conducted at the
Wisconsin Station.
Two feeding experiments for the pur-
pose of ascertaining the value of ground
oats and of bran for miluh cows. We're
conducted at the Wisconsin Experiment
Station during the last year. Two cows
were used on the first experiment and
four on the second one. The cows were
fed the same quantities, by weight, OF
oats and bran. eight pounds daily per
head on the first experiment and ten
pounds on the second and, in addition,
the same fundamental ration of corn
meal, hay and corn silage or fodder
corn. The effect of similar weights of
oats or bran in a ration for mich cows
was thus studied. 1t was found that
the cows invariably did better on oats,
going up in milk yield when coming on
oats and going down when bran was
fed, while the fat content of the milk
remained the same on an average. The
average figures for the six cows are
given in the following table:

FARM AND GARDEN.
POULTRY AND TOOLS.

a House That Serves Two Purposes Ex-
cellently Well.
On many farms the hens are allowed
TO lay their eggs about the barn, under
it, or in fence corner, and to roost
wherever they can find q foothold, re-
sulting in the frequent loss of eggs,
and in the veXatious soiling of wagons,
tools, and the premises generally. 1t
is also true that there is frequently no
place in which to store farm tools.
The pillow is run in under the wagon,
and the moving machine occupies an
end of the barn floor during that por-
ton of the year when not in use, VIII lie
other tools find resting places, some
within and some out of doors. 1t hard
ly needs argument to show that such a
course is both waSteful and inconven-
lent. Such condition of things may
be remedied by, constructing a building
like that shown in the iilustration-a
building that can be readily and cheaply
put together by one at all handy with
tools. 1t may be placed on one side of
the barnyard, thus atfording desirable
windbreak. AS shown, it may face
either east or south. 1t could, of
course, be made to face the west also.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1891-02-06

That portion farthest from the barn
is used for hen-house, since windows
upon two sides can thus be secured.
This portion, if not the whole shed,
should be battened snugly upon the
outside, and lined with tarrcd paper on
the inside. The floor should be as
tight as possible and covered with four
or five inches of road dust or dried
swamp muck, on which may be placed
straw or other litter. The portion de
voted to tools should have Il dry floor to
prevent rust. If this can be accom-
plished by thorough drainage and a
thick coating of gravel it will much
facilitate the running in of heavy NOW
ers, plows, etc. The doors are also
made large for this purpose, while the
whole front OF the tool shed may be
thrown open by taking down the NOV
able post between the two doors. A
tight partition separates the poultry
house from the tool shed.-Amcrican

Thus, as the average for six cows, a
gain of about ten per cent. in the milk
and milk fat was found, resulting from
feeding of oats instead of an equal
quantity of bran.
This result was shown to have been
produced from about equal quantities
of food materials III the two cases, and
the oats therefore seem to have a high
er nutritive effect with mich cows,
than has bran. When the financial
aspect of the question is considered, it
will be seen that at the present market
prices for the two feeds, bran S11 per
ton and oats twenty-three cents per
bushel, the former is the cheaper feed
of the two. The conclusion reached by
the two experiments is, that where the
difference in price between the two
leeds is greater than ten per cent. in
favor of the bran. it is not good econ
omy to feed oats to milch COWS in pref
erence to bran.--Western Rural.

In the care OF fowls no one thing is
more important than system, says the
Poultry journal. There SHOULD! he a
daily routine. 1t must be some
body's business to attend to the Fowls
punctually at just about the same time
every day-iust as much as it is essen
tial to the well-being of n well-ord"rrd
family to have the rleals at regular
hours, the washing done on Monday
the ironing on Tuesday, the baking on
Wednesday, the sweeping on Friday,
etc. 1T is Just as essential as it Is to
groom the horses, milk the cows, clean
ont the stables, feed and water all
around, regularly and daily, week III
and week out.
In moderate weather fowls may
have their morning feed at sunrise, but
in very cold weather it is best to let
them stay on the roosts, where they
are warm, until the temperature has
somewhat moderated. Then the feed
ing room has been swept out small
quantity of feed placed in the troughs,
and the fowls driven off their roosts if
they do not come down of their own
free will In cold weather warm feed

with Indian meal or any thing of the

be- washed out and filled with warm

feed and water are not desirable eX'

A Fact.
From an interview, N. Y. Worldly


In an interview with leading drug. house
the N. Y. World, Nov. 8, 1890, gives the fol-
lowing comment on the proprietors Oh re-
liable patent medicines:
"HQis specialist, and should know more
of the disease he actually treats than the
ordinary physician; for while the latter
NAV come across say fifty cases in year
of the particular disease which this med
icine combats, its manufacturer inveStl-
gates thousands. Don't you suppose his
Prescription, which YOU buy ready made up
for 50 cents, is likely to do more good
than that of the ordinary physician, who
charges you anywhere from s. to $40 for
giving it, and leaves you to pay the cost o.
having it prepareds
"The patent medicine man, too, usually
has the good sense to contlne himself to or
binary, every day diseases. he leaves 10 the
physician cases in which there is immediate
danger to life, such as violent levers. he
does this because, in the treatment OF sucl
cases, there are other clements of lmpor
lance besides medicine, such as proper diet
ing, good nursing, u knowledge OF the
PATIENTS strength and so On. Where there
is no absolute danger to life, where the dis
ease is one which the patient can diagnose
| for himself or which some physician ha:
! already determined, the patent medicine
maker says fearlessly: i have prepare
ton which is better than any other know
and which will cure yon' In nine cases
| out of ten his statement is true"
