Considerable controversy, says an ex-
change, has been had as TO the effects
Of feeding oil mcn TO COWS IN calf
and also ms to the relative value of oil
meal and flax seed meal. Bulletin
number rs, Of the Iowa experiment
station. contains the record of an eX-
pertinent carried on at that station TO
determine if possible these points.
There were two lots of cows, five in
each lot. Feeding was begun Deem
Der ] by feeding five pounds Of oil
meal per day to one lot and FIVE pounds
Of flax seed 10 the other These
amounts We're gradually increased I'M
til by the Goth Of January one lot was
getting 40 pounds of meal per day, or
eight pounds per head, and The other
the same amount Of flax seed. The
intention rs stated was to sill further
have increased these amounts, but II
seems that the cows receiving fax
seed refused 20 eat more than eight
pounds per day. The experiment WINS
continued until March lst The lot fcd
on fax meal gained 49, ponds from
December i until January -, and 24l
pounds from January 20 until March /
The smaller gain Of the first period
was Of course due to the small amount
Of food given, the amount being I'M
creased very gradually from five
pounds ON December I 10 40 pounds
on January -.
The lot receiving oil meal gained
23G pounds from December / to Janu
ary 20 and from the later date until
March ] gained 236 pounds The total
gain from the OH meal WAS 400 pounds
against 423 pounds for the fax meal
a difference Of rs pounds tn favor Of
the oil meal II should he mentioned
that corn meal-12 pounds per cow
and fodder were also fed.
In regard to the effect on pregnant
animals, the report states that three

Lepers Proof Against Electricity.

"Down at Honolulu" said Harry Dia-
mond, "I had battery a1d worked the
innocent Kauakas with the old trick of
the five dollar gold piece. That is, I'd
place the piece in the bottom of a jar of
water connected with the battery. Then
I'd tell the native boys that they could
have the money if they'd pick it out of
the jar and hold the hand on the other
pole of the battery at the same time. OF
course the moment their hands struck
the water the circuit was completed,
their fingers would be doubled up and
they couldn't touch the money if their
fortunes had depended on getting it. l

were in the office lad came in, pushed

He had been persuaded to try for the
money, and / explained the trick to the
ladies in an aside as l arranged the ap.
paratus. The boy took the handle and
we all prepared for a great laugh.

Umbrellas In Turkey,

In many Eastern countries an umbrella
is mark of distinction, and its use is
confined to people of rank. Turkey is
one of the few Asiatic countries where
the umbrella is in common use, and car
ried as a protection from rain. In most
places its use is that of parasol. Says
an Eastern traveller: "Arriving at Con-
stantinople from countries further to the
east, where the umbrella is considered
badge of high rank, was much aston
ished to find it in common use in rainy
weather. However, soon learned that
traces of the same superstition existed.
One rainy morning | had occasion to
walk along the road which faces the
Bosphorus. One of the buildings 1
passed is favorite palace of the Sultan,
in which he was then residing. AS l
approached the gate with my umbrella
over my head, one of the sentinels
stationed there accosted me in threat
ening manner. Not understanding what
he said, l went on, whereupon he ran at
me with his fixed bayonet leveled. At
that moment friendly Turk, who was
walking behind me, snatched MY um-
brella with violence from my hand and
thrust mo forward. Then the soldier
returned to his station, and allowed me
to proceed in peace. On returning my
umbrella the Turk explained that every
one is obliged to take down his UNI
brella on passing the actual residence of
the Sultan. No matter how heavy the
rain, each person passing the palace must
lower the umbrella, and not elevate it
again until fully past the building"

How a Fish Sees.

The medium in which fresh. water
fishes live gives them chance to see a
great distance only in the horizontal
direction, and the proper adjustment of
the eye would make, under usual con-
ditions, the optical axis take this direc-
tion. To me it seems impossible to ex-
plain the constant revolution of the eye.
ball on any other hypothesis except that
gwen, viz: That the optical axis ex-
tends forward instead of sidewise.
When fish wishes to cat anything,
either at the bottom of the pond or at
the surface of the water, it swims
directly toward the object; and in this
case the eyes are instantly adjusted in
line with the body, so as to bring the
image of the particle desired upon the
posterior portion of the retina. In this
case they lose their usual horizontal
position.
If fish wishes to turn to the right or
left in the water, says Professor Apgar
in the American Angler, the first move.
ment is that of the eyes in unison in the
direction Of the turning. This would
be entirely unnecessary if the apparent
axis was the axis of most distinct vision,
as one Of the eyes would see all that was
to be seen on the side of the turning.
After this movement of tho eyes the
body turns enough to bring the eyes into
their normal position, then there is again
q movement of the eyes and next move
ment of the body. This causes peculiar
jerking motion of the eyeballs during
the whole time of the turning Of the
body.

Marvellous Popularity of Bicycles.

The marvellous growth of the bicycle
industry during the last few years is
patent to all who live in the upper Sec
tion of the city or in any other part of it
where fairly good roads exist. There
the wheel man or woman can be seen at
all times, but 1t is only at some of the
larger establishments where the manu-.
facture or sale of wheels is the sole pur-
suit that the iull popularity Of the BIZ
cycle is ascertainod. One establishment
in this city alone sells bicycles worth
nearly 81, 900, 600 yearly, while another
doing an extensive wholesale business in
medium and w-priced wheels, reaches
$500, 900. In 1891 140, 600 "wheels"
were constructed in this country, nearly
all of which were sold, in addition to
20, 900 English ones imported.
The giving Of lessons in bicycle riding
has become an established feature in the
cycle business, several instruction halls
existing in various parts of the city. At
the best known of these nearly $4,000
lessons were given last year, many
people coming from towns as far dis
tant as Stamford, Conn, and New
Brunswick, N. New York Tribune.

Indians Not Given to Lying.

The Dakotas, unless they have been
corrupted by bad white men, are strictly
and literally truthful. One has to be
careful not to make a mistake in talking
with them. When they asked how many
'sleeps" (nights) before we meant to do
any certain thing, we had to be sure of
the number for fear of shocking them
by not keeping our word. One is not
allowed to change ones mind about en-
gagements either. On one occasion we
had gone the rounds of the camp iuvit.
ing all, old and young, to a sort of en-
tertainment-a reception We called 1t,
for want of another name. On the day
appointed l was seized with fever, and
my sister decided that we would have to
postpone our treat. So she sounded the
police signal, three taps on the bell, and
sent our faithful Stiff-Arm to let the
camp know that no one was to come to
the school house that day. But she reck-
oned without her invited guests. In-
dians are punctuality itself, and prompt
ly at 4 o'clock, the hour set, they began
to pour in. The first comers were al
lowed to come in my bedroom, that they
might report my illness to those on the
way. But it did no good. The entire
camp arrived. My sister rushed for the
hardtack that we had meant to bea part
of the refreshments, and distributed it
among them at the door, and bade them
good-by. Then they went reluctantly
home. New York Post.

Tigers in the Malay Peninsula.

The tiger of the Malay peninsula is
more savage than his neighbor, the tiger
of the Indian jungles. In appearance he
is much similar, but if anything tride
larger. have walked through Jungle
day after day which was swarming with
tigers, yet 1 have never seen one in the
day time unless he was being hunted.
At night you often hear them roaring,
more especially during rainy weather. A
tiger is supposed to kill its victim at
once by gentle rap from his huge paw
on the back Of the neck, which at once
breaks it. This is the tradition of the
Malays, but l will not vouch for its YER
Gcity, though it seems probable enough.
