Less Hay for Horsss.

Hay in the manager all the time re- suits in serious. disorders; the animals system is deranged and often broken down A young horse weight less than l. 900 pounds is sound. yet a sluggish traveller ordinarily. Months ago neighbor told me I fed him too much hay replied that I thought not; that he only got half as much as my other horses Lately discovered much. It came about thus: My oats having been all fed. I was buying Oats were dear. and ground oats sus- piciously full of hulIs reasoned whether l could not compound an honest and cheap ration from wheat bran. oil meal or cotton seed meal and cornmeal for all my horses wrote Prof. E. w. Stew art He replied that for roadsters oil. or cotton-seed meal two parts. corn meal two parts and bran six parts. with ten parts of cut hay or straw all by weight was about right for 24 hours in three feeds. We'll 1 stopped buying oats and have saved money
 But have done more-the particular horse mentioned has improved as a driver and continues to improve. He looks and acts more ambitious and has better disposition. For this l credit myself. The weighing led me to try less and less hay. while not increas- ing the grain ration with the above favorable result The horse had U good appetite and only a small stom- ach. As consequence he was un- comfortable. cross and indisposed while on the road. Now 1 am not only saving money in grain. but in hay. and have better driver.
 A short time ago valuable horse
 an imported draft stallion was fed all the hay he could eat-with dire result It took an experienced horseman months to correct the mischief done by seasons stuffing with hay Since that severe lesson we have had con- stantly the care of work horses and have found that fully as good results in feeding were had where good. bright straw. of which the animals ate little was used for roughness and variety. but no greater quantity of grain was fed them than wheE hay was a large and constant part of the diet. An opportunity to inspect the feeding of horses in a large stable belonging to street car company revealed the fact that the horses required to make 24 miles per day at . jog-trot in heats of six miles each. were fed almost entirely grain diet being given only enough hay to secure good digestion The common ration was crushed corn and wheat-bran mixed with coarse cut hay. Of this about half bushel was fed dry ct one ness.

WHAT does persist in one class of coavicts who wish to reform Is the seIf-indulgenee and lack of self-control thas sent them to prison originally. They are no worse, perhapa on their release than many who will never so violxtc the criminal code as to be inn prisoned- but their seIf-indulgence will lead them to repeat their acts Of law iessness There Is yet another and . very smaiI class who commit crime for erimes sake. These only are the rsally "hardened criminals They ars in the last stages of moral idiocy. and the only thing that can be done foe them is to lock them up where they can do the least harm to themselves and othera

Whole hay was sometimes fed and shs grain ration was varied to maintain vigorous appetite With this feeding the horses were kept in excellent con- dition under the constant and severe labor of the car service All similar observations of scientific feeding and my own experience confirm me in the belief that farmers could get better service out of their teams and at the same time keep them in better con- dition by feeding less hay and without increasing the quantity of grain Omaha Stockman-

TIN PLATE TAXES.

 At the lowest calculation the ln- creased duty on tin plate will compel the American users of articles made of that material to pay s20. 900. 900 a year more for such articles than they would have to pay were there no duty on it and this whether we use i'm ported or home made tin plate
 But if we are supplied with homa made plate we shall says my core spondeat make work for 50. .000 workingmen. Nothing of the kind We shall merely have transferred ten or twenty thousand laborers from en- ploymeufs in which they were sup porting themselves into an employ ment where it costs the people <2O 900. GOO to support them
 And that is the least cost of the $25. 010. 600 worth of farm products. keeping those products at home ou an already gIutted market to the loss of the farmer, with distress and loss Of employment to his laborers-
 Furthermore by increasing the first cost of a common material of industry we have Iessened the consumption of articles made from that material all over the country and robbed other labor of employment
 Take the canning industry alone. Ii is not only great and growing em ployer of labor. it is the sole profita ble outlet for many farm and dairy products In the state of Maryland alone it is said by those who know. 70 900 people find employment in the canning trade and it's supporting in dustries- When congress adds , l-5 cents a pound. swollen by the profits of ali the middlemen. to the cost of the material out Of which wrappers for all this canned food is made if strikes a heavy blow at a great and growing industry. It increases sensi- bly the cost to consumers of the pro- ducts of that industry, lessens the sale of those products and in so doing mar rows the field Of employment for labor both iu that and its many auxiliary h. dustrie'.

 And what have we bought at this tremendous costs Two things only. lily paid and to some extent un- healthy employment for few thou sand men. women. boys and girls-nos enough with all their families to con- sume the surplus products of a single good agricultural county in Missouri; and one more great and greedy pauper industry to be fed pampered and sup ported. according to it's own demands from the hard and honest earnings of the tax payers of the country.

Rape.

Rape is crop that has been but little grown on this side of the Atlan- tic. although in England it is grown largely as a green fodder for fattening sheep and lambs Doubtless the ma iority of our readers have never seen the plant Some months ago we sug- gested that it might prove of value here as well as there and now we are glad to state that it has been tested on an extensive scale. with good re- suits by Prof. law at the Ontario Agricultural College. Last season he fattened five hundred lambs upon 1t with marked profit and this season has enlarged his experiment by grow ing forty-three acres of this crop. The crop is grown in precisely the same manner as tufnips, and is fed from the field without the cost of housing or harvesting. It is claimed that irs fattening effect on sheep and lambs is quite remarkable. Rural World.
