Mixed Feeds.

Roots come in as a fixed ingredient of
mixed feeds. The experiments at
Rothamstead, England, have proved
that there are two cardinal principles in
feeding mixed feeds. One is that mixed
feeds are by far superior to plain food
for sheep, and the other principle is that
all of the elements of the mixture must
be fed every day in about the same pro-
portion and not once a week or once in
two or three days. The first principle
is easily illustrated. While eight pounds
of peas or six pounds of oilcake meal
will make a pound of live weight, the
same amount of gain will be obtained
from ~ pounds when the two are
mixed together.
The mixture increased by cut roots
would even be improved, and better re-
suits are obtained from wheat straw
and turnips mixed together than from
good timothy hay, although the latter
would be more expensive. By %judicious-
ly studying such mixtures money is &C.
tually saved to the farmer, and the in
crease in the weight of the sheep keeps
up steadily. The necessity of feeding
all of the elements in the mixture every
day is apparent. The system becomes
accustomed to them and expects the
different elements each twenty-four
hours.-American Cultivator.

Foul Brood in Bees.

It is not advisable that a beekeeper be
continually opening brood nests and crit
ically examining the combs for foul
brood. If a colony shows signs of list
lessness or many dead bees are seen in
front of n or more of the hives, or q
peculiar, unpleasant odor is noticed, it
would be wise to make an examination.
The only plan of treatment that can
be relied on to effect a radical cure is to
shake off the bees during a honey flow
into a new or sealed hive having no
combs in which the bees can store, and
thus save up any of the infected honey
which they may have brought with
them. If there is much healthy brood
left in the old hive a few bees may be
left to protect it and the hive allowed to
stand until the brood is all Matched,
when the bees from several hives so
treated may be ,Slited in a new hive and
given a queen. Where the hives have
loose bottom boards several hives from
which the bees or nearly all of them
have been taken may be placed one above
the other, when in three weeks all of the
healthy brood will have Matched and
will be already united in one colony;
then the bees can be given a new hive
and a queen, leaving the combs free
from healthy brood. When freed from
bees and healthy brood the combs may
be emptied of honey by extracting, then
melted into a Thorough boiling of
the honey will kill all the germs of foul
brood, but to make assurance doubly
sure some have added to the honey a
small proportion of salicylic acid. Honey
thus treated may be fed to the BEES
Field and Farm.

The Range Cattle Industry.

>"o "AAS ShCCAc 1uUu6Crys
The following statements concerning
the range cattle industry are furnished
us from a reliable source in answer to
an inquiry from a correspondent, and
they are Of such general interest that
we give them this prominence:
The total receipts of cattle for last
year at the Union stock yards, Chicago,
were $3.50, 1853, making a weekly aver
age Of 62,506. Out of the aggregated
receipts it is estimated that there were
1,0OO,OOO or thereabouts of Texas, In
dian Territory and southwestern range
cattle, and about 800, 900 northern range
cattle, the remainder, $50, 359-being
natives.
The majority of Texas cattle are fat
tened upon what may be termed public
lands, which are divided in ownership by
railroad companies who lease to differ
ent ranchmen at from four to five cents
per acre per annum. A very large por-
ton OF land used for grazing purposes
IN Texas is owned by cattlemen. The
northwestern range cattle are largely
fattened upon public lands, but cattle
men W a considerable portion of land
which they occupy. Cattle can be nut
out in Texas to be pastured at from 81. so
to $3 per head per annum. In the north
west the price is about the same. All
cattle are taxed, and tbs cattlemen in
the south and northwest are the largest
taxpayers in their respective Districts

The latest way to treat alfalfa is to
run the crop as soon as cut and cured
through a powerful feed cutter. The
cut hay is then stacked and is ready for
use. One cutter in use in California
cuts and stacks over 100 tons a day.
Wild oats cut and cured early make
the best of hay. Pacific coast horses

shipped east with them when they are

Live Stock Points,

Eggs for Matching should not be more
than a week old. Beyond this there is
danger Of the germ dying.
Dry leaves may be used to great ad.
vantage for bedding. They are both
comfortable and absorbing.
About this time of year SOW some rye
for winter pasture for the lambs. In
the spring it will likewise be a grateful
bite of green for the animals that have
been on dry feed. After that you can
blow it under if you like.
In casting about in your mind as to
what you are going to do about fattening
your hogs this fall, remember that they
should be disposed of as soon as they are
fat. Keeping them a day beyond that is
a loss.
Pigs dropped in February or March
can be made ready for the fall killing.

Feeding Lambs.

The object of this experiment was to
present an object lesson on the profits of
the liberal feeding of lambs that are in.
tended for the market.
Two lots of sheep and lambs were fed
in a radically different manner The
ration Of lot one was intended to be an in
tensive ration or a copy of the method
that is used for forcing the growth of
early lambs. On the other hand, lot two
was fed in a manner similar to that
which is adopted by many farmers whs
consider the sheep to be an animal that
can be successfully fed on the refuse of
a barn without the addition of very
much grain.
The sheepoflot one received what good
hay they would consume and a pound of
grain each per day. Besides this the
pen was SO arranged that the lambs had
access at all times to a supply of mixed
grain. The sheep of lot two were fed one
half pound grain per head daily, with
what good hay they would eat. The
lambs of this lot were allowed no grain
excepting what they ate from their
mothers ration.
The following is a summary of tho
results of the experiment:
First-Two lots Of sheep, each con.
tanning ten sheep and twelve lambs,
were fed for three months.
Second-One lot of sheep Got one) ate
5000 pounds of hay and 1,434 pounds of
mixed grain. The other lot DOT two) ate
5000 pounds Of hay and $50 pounds of
mixed grain. Lot one ate, therefore, 984
pounds more grain that lot two.
Third-During the three months the
sheep of lot n lost 1O4 pounds in
weight and lot two 1855 pounds, a differ
ence in favor of lot one of 80 pounds.
The lambs of lot one weighed 545

One cattleman who is little tired of
low prices for steers says that he is go
ing hereafter to breed the biggest horns
on beeves that he can; that a pair of
huge, well polished, handsomely mount
ed horns will bring more than the whole
steer will. There might be something
in this. 1t is certain that the buffalo
horns which are so ornamental have
nearly all disappeared, and hat the price
of a pair Of big horns is gradually rising.
Lean meat is the best for poultry. The
hens want nitrogen and the lean meat
contains that. Refuse bits of tough beef
are very good when given fresh.
Some of the worst mistakes in grade
Clydesdale breeding have been made by
using small and inferior mares.
A man who gets once the reputation
of having good fresh cows for sale to
dairymen in the fall will never get left.
A correspondent of The Breeders Ga
zette has tried Percherons, C~lydesdales,
Shires and scrub horses and gives it as
his conclusion that the Shire is the best

America. Each to his taste.
Range cattlemen who intend to keep
up with the wagon must raise the stand

their beef as rapidly as possible.

About Pastures.

In the east commercial fertilizers are
used to help the pastures; in the west
they should be mapured from the barn
yard whenever possible.
While the use of fences is to hold
stock they should be made as neat and
attractive as possible. The difference
in cost between a neat, we'll built fence
and one thst is a constant eyesore to all
beholders is not great, and the satisfac-
ton that comes from doing a thing
properly should be large pay for the
difference. Neatness is not only whole
some, but pays abundant interest.
A beautiful pasture field to be COM
plete must be set off with the best of
the improved breeds in good condition,
and they r the only sorts that pay n
profit in these days. Those whose bust
ness it is to breed pedigreed stock should
give especial attention to pasture lots.
To take a prospective purchaser into an
i'll kept pasture surrounded by a tum-
BILE down fence with brush and weeds
everywhere present puts the visitor in
an unfavorable frame of mind and may
prove the turning point to an adverse
decision. A good artist knows how to
hang his pictures, and the ability to
show good stock in good form is no
small part of the qualifications of a sue
cessful improved stock farmer.-Breed-

Bees Work ut Night.

Bees work ut night in the hive and
build comb as perfectly as if an electric
light shone there all the time. 1t has
often been asked why they prefer to
work in the dark. Every one knows that
honey is IL liquid without any solid
sugar lit. After standing it gradually
assumes u crystalline appearance, or
graduates and ultimately becomes a
solid mass. This is caused by the &C
ton of light. Hence we see why the
bees are so careful to obscure the glass
windows which are placed in their
hives. The existence of the young de-
ponds on the liquidity of the saccharine
food presented to them, and if light
we're allowed access to this, it would in
Oil probability prove fatal to the in
mates of the hive.-Exchange.

linens.
In autumn we must decide which ones
of our fowls are worth caring for through
the winter. There usually is Mt this
time of the year ~ miscellaneous throng
in the poultry yards-3-year-old hens
beginning to have the "old biddy" look,
hens i'll the prime of life, pullets fresh
and pretty, and gawky, half grown crea-
lures full of possibilities. One is puzzled
F., rs to which are the members of such a
flock which will best help him in the
coming season.
The birds must be studied one by one.
Feed them these evenings, in along. mar
row line, with cracked corn, which is
"slow eating" While they are quiet
and busy, in single file, their fate can be
settled. Few are the old hens which
should be allowed to live. Only those
with wondrously fine points" can be
permitted a fourth season. Some radi-
calls in poultry keeping will have no
hens over 1 year old, but they lose much
in the 2-year-olds. Hens are then at
their best and lay their largest eggs.
To select the right pullets is most per-
picking. Not many of them have yet be-
| gun to lay, SO that we do not know their
powers in that respect. We must trust
to the egg record of their families, and
to the general indications of Il good
layer-the full shape, conceited carriage
and capable look, which distinguish the
hen worth having.
If careful breeding is to be attempted,
the novice is apt to think that he must
Gull his flock according to points,"
with his copy OF The Standard of Ex-
cellence in his hand. But he will find
that there are many queer facts in
poultry raising, and one of them is that
he must often keep birds quite different
from The Standard, in order that their
offspring may possess the points men,
toned therein.
The Standard is of practical use in
discarding chickens to one who has no
ambition for clancy breeding" but aims
to supply the constant demand for well
