For Fattening Lambs

If lambs are fattened under favor
able conditions it becomes profitable
business, and for that reason is worthy
of careful study. Lambs may be fat
tened without the use Of q heavy
grain ration. From experiments at
the Michigan Agricultural College
Station, it is found that the ration
containing the greatest per cent Of
digestible albumOids, or the one con-
tanning the narrower nutritive ratio,
produced the best results. Our obser-
walton has been that there are no bet
ter conditions for the growth and fat
tening Of lambs than the rich paStur-
age of warm hillsides in early spring.
In the experiments before alluded to-
results indicated a superiority of roots
over silage for the fattening purpose
but it was observed that either of
these might enter largely into the
feeding ration and he fed at profit
Before grass gets sufficiently started
for feed, a ration of aftermath, with
roots and small grain ration may be
employed. Whether roots or silage
are employed must depend upon the
sort of production, giving preference
to that kind of food that is pro-
duced cheapest.

Improvement of the Soil.

The foundation of good farming
lies in the constant improvement of
the soil; there is no theory that can
take the place of this. While it may
appear satisfactory to secure good
crops if it is, done at the cost Of fer
tility, or drawing from the soil more
than is applied, it is what might be
called personal robbery. The work
upon the farm should be planned
with reference to lettering the con-
ditiOn of the land while at the same
time crops are being yielded. Manure
is the strong hold for the farmer, and
if he is without this, and dependent
upon commercial fertilizers, he
has an uphill road to travel. The ne
cessity of stable manure as a diylsoT
of the soil by it's mechanical infiu-
ence cannot be oyereStimated. and in
case this cannot be employed, the
next best thing will be to make use OF
green crops as the nearest substitute.
If soil is poor at the start, by Judi
ecious rotation Of crops and green
crop manuring, the soil may be i'm.
proved, crops secured, fed, and man
ure secured, so that after a time a
change may be effected in the system
and q general improvement secured.

Stone for UNDERGRADUATES.

Every geologist, or at least every one
who SAYS his prayers at all, goes down
on his knees every night and prays that
he may discover vein of photographic
stone. There is only one quarry of this
precious material in the United States,
and that is somewhere in the Northwest.
The best stone comes from Germany, aud
is SO valuable and expensive that the
discovery OF even q small vein would
prove the fortune of the finder. The
biologists are convinced that there must
be an abundance of this material some
where in the United States, and so keep
sharp lookout on any newly discover
ed stone, for vein of the Autograph

Bees and Bee Hives.

While mOvable-f frame hives have
revOlutioniZed bookkeeping in the
hands of those who learn how to use
them, says d writer, ] believe that,
to the masses Of farmers who have
tried them. they have been an injury
rather than a benefit. In those parts
Of our country where they have been
most largely introduced, the number
of farmers who keep bees has most
largely decreased. At the same time
the important services which the
bees perform make it very desirable
that a few hives, at least, should be
kept on almost every farm.
I believe that most farmers would
have better success with their bees
if they used only the old straw or box
hives A simple tool in the hand Of
one who knows how to use it will
turn out much better work than an
improved implement whose proper
use has never been learned. The cd
straw hive is the simple tool. Before
the advent of the bee-moth. with
such hives nearly every farmer kept
bees; and as the introduction of the
italian bee has done away with all
serious trouble from the moth, there
Is nothing to prevent them from do
! ing so now. With these Old-fash-
! toned hives, the women and the chill
dren can do most Of the work, and
Bookkeeping, like poultrY-raising, will
be their special province and profit.
Aside from learning how to hive the
new swarms, little knowledge is
needed. After the honey-gathering
is over all the hives were carefully
'thefted;" the extra light ones were
! condemned to be 'talxen up" as not
having stores enough to winter; the
extra heavy ones also, for the value
of their honey, while sufficient
number Of well-proyisioned stocks
were kept for seed. 1t was easy tC

Sermon on the "Good Old Times"

There is a vast difference between
the condition of the farmer to-day and
years ago under free trade. In those
"good old tines
A bushel of wheat would buy three
quarters of barrel of salt; it will now
buy two barrels.
A bushel of corn would buy seven
and one-half pounds of sugar. to-day it
will buy twelve and three-quarters
pounds.
Ten pounds of butter bought thirty
three and one-third yards of cotton
cloth then; now it purchases forty
eight and one-thlrd yards
Ten pounds of cheese were worth
twenty-five pounds Of nails; the cheese
now pays for fifty-tour pounds of nails.
A pound of washed wool grown ten
years before the war would buy one
fifth of barrel of salt, three and five
sixth pounds of sugar, three and two
thirds yards Of cotton cloth or ten
pounds of nails. To-day his own pound
of wool will Fay for three-quarters of a
barrel of salt, eight pounds of sugar,
six and one-half yards of cotton cloth
and twenty-five pounds of nails.
These figures are based on New York
City prices. But as a matter Of fact he
never realized anything like those
prices in his local prices.
Freights were high, and when the
cost of bringing products to the New
York market was deducted from New
York prices for farm produce, and the
cost of bringing the merchandise from
New York to the village store at which
ne traded was added to the price of
what he bought, the average farmer
was really not more than half as well
off ten years before the war as our fig
ures would Indicate.
For instance, in 1857 it cost 25i cents
to bring bushel of wheat by the
cheapest route from Chicago to New
York; IN 1891 it cost less than cents.
Surrounded by these conditions, life
on the farm was hard indeed. Calico
and Kentucky jean had to do for Sum
day garments, and an OK cart in which
to ride to church was tho height
of style.
Luxuries for the table were almost
unknown; Johnny cake and salt pork
was a princely diet.
Those were days Of hard times, when
the farmer Graded his grain, and raked
and bound it by hand.
He toiled early and late, saved and
scrlmped, and received less return for
a week of hardest toll than the farmer

ticed by the common bee-keeper, is
far more cruel than to kill them at
once; but there will be no necessity
of killing any bees. The skilled
apiarian, who, Of course, uses nova
able frame hives, will be glad for the
value Of the condemned bees, to drive
them from their combs; and with his

We May Make Our Own Opium.

A sort of opium is obtained from the

something very learned and profound,
and declare that they find important
differences between the opium of the

but, tor all practical purposes, the one
is Identical with the other. Everyone
who has eaten lettuce knows how
sleepy it causes him to become an hour
or SO after dinner, and the older the
lettuce the greater the sleepiness, for
in mature lettuce the milk juice is we'll
