ate little was used for roughness and
variety. but no greater quantity Of
grain was fed them than when hay was
q large and constant part OF the diet.
An opportunity to inspect the feeding
OF horses in large stable belonging
to street car company revealed the
fact that the horses required to
make "a 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 at one mess.
Whole hay was sometimes fed and the
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 farmer; 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

S art Now.

It may be true that the average
dalryman can not comply with all the
conditions of expert dairying at once,
and go to the front at a bound, but no
reason exists why he should not begin
to make progress towards better
methods and results. The dairy herd
can be gradually improved by the in
fusion of fresh blood from some of ths
noted herds and deviation given to
the dairy product. Too many dairies
are kept that the owner does not know
what their special purpose is for,
whether butter, cheese or city milk
Give it purpose for one of the three
specialties. The stables can be fixed
ua, made clean and comfortable. One
can also cheaply learn how to prop
erly take care of milk whether for the
house factory or city wants. If butter
Is made the crearner, churn. and fix
lures are cheap and their use soon
mastered, and so on through the list.
Keep learning, keep improving. keep
the business from dragging, push it
and one will be surprised how much
progress will be made in three years,
and in five years. one will have be-
come an expert and can quickly
demonstrate how and why tho dairy
pays. and how it is an educator su-
perior to any other farm industry.
Make a start and keep at it. is the
advice Of the Practical Farmer.

Less Hay for HorSe,.

Hay in the manger all the time re-
suits in serious disorders; the animal S
system is deranged and often broken
down. A young horse. weight less
than 1000 pounds is sound, yet a
sluggish traveller ordinarily. Months
ago a neighbor told me fed him too
much hay, I replied that 1 thought
not; that he only got half as much as
my other horses. Lately discovered
he should not have one-quarter as
much. 1t came about thus: Ny oats
having been all fed. 1 was buying
Oats were dear, and ground oats sus-
piciously full of hulls. 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. l wrote Prof E. w. Stew
art He replied that for roadsters oil
or cotton-ssed 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. Well l stopped
buying oats and have saved money.
But have done more-the particular
horse mentioned has improved as
driver and continues to improve. He
looks and acts more ambitious and has
better disposition. For this | 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
good appetite and only small stom-
ach. As a consequence he was un-
comfortable cross and indisposed
while on the road. Now l am not
only saving money in grain. but in
hay, and have a better driver.
A short time ago a valuable horse
an imported draft stallion. was fed all
the hay he could eat-with dire result
1t 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.

POLITICAL DEGRADATION.
The Two Old Parties Have ached tho
DEPTHS Of Iufamv.

The Two Old Parties Have Reached tho
Depths Of Infamy.
If you would throw a. ton OF ipecac
into hades it would not vomit forth
more treachery. hypocrisy and corrup-
ton than are found among the leaders
of the two old parties. The Republic
ans have sold themselves to the pro-
tected manufacturers, and the Demo-
Gratis belong to the gold bugs of Wall
street Both parties are striving for
the same end-the enslavement of the
toiling millions for the enrichment of
the favored few; and as was conclu-
sively shown in the western elections
If it becomes necessary to overthrow
and crush the political power of the
people. these old enemies will bury
differences. combine their forces, and
unite upon and support one tic6et.
The Jeffersonian Democratic (p)
movement in the Seventh Georgia dis
trict was the first outcropping of this
feeling, says the Southern Alliance
Farmer. and from the empire state of
the South it has spread to the north
west.
In the hatred of politicians and plu-
tocrats against the Alliance all past
differences are forgotten. and enmities
of third of century. even famed by
civil war. are forgotten in mutual
hatred of a struggling people. We
see Bourbons, Democrats and Radical
Republicans clasping hands across the
chasm OF sectional hate and working
hand in hand, in order to defeat the
Alliance and re-enslave the farmers.
And we also see so-called Demo-
cratic (?) organs in Georgia Growing
over the victory (?) their party has
won. and exuiting over the downfall
(?) of the Alliance, and yet not one of
these papers has had the self-respect,
manhood and fairness to expose and
condemn the unholy and Infamous
coalitions their party has formed with
the Republicans.
Brother Alliance men. what does
this show? Why it shows that the
Democratic press of Georgia are con-
doners of, and sympathizers with this
villainous conspiracy, and that they
would rather see the Republican party
triumph than the people! Secretly
they gloat over the degrading ends to
which their party has stopped to over
throw and discourage the Alliance
movement, and if it becomes necessa-
ry to defeat us they will join hands
with the Republicans in Georgia in
1892.
After reading this story of shame
from Kansas do you now feel pride
in being called a Democrat? Study
that record, and then tell US what is
the difference between the two old
partiesP The Democrats have joined
forces with the Republicans to defeat
the Alliance, and lost sight OF the
issues that divided them so long The
truth is that the leaders of both par
ties have become so vile and corrupt
and are so linked together by selfish
ness and greed. that it will take a first
class political chemist to separate
them.
If you call that crowd of political
amalgamators in Kansas and the high
kickers who brought out Dr. FELTON,.
Democrats-in the language of Ben
Hill, it we ever were Democrat we
didn't mean to be.

10 Gems to be generally agreed upon that
our delegates to Chicago shall not be ID
structed tor any candidate. This may be
very proper but not only should our delega-
ti0n have pronounced preference, but the
convention should give forth 40 uncertain
sound as to the choice Of the people OF the

tives' would there he il all the States sent

no expression of their peoples desire further
than to get good man 1he
several delegations should be backed with
tie predictions OF their constituencies, and
then an interchange of views 30 10 the proper

doubt there will be an effort made IN our

might hamper the free exercise of their good

people Of the several States will be of ma
tenal benefit to said national deliberatiye
