meeting him with the man who was in

MI. Buckley, on the contrary, argued
that Reed was not an accomplice; that he
went to the house for a social visit, and
when he saw what was going on he left
the place. Ii he is not an accomplice his
evidence is sufficient, and he insisted
that he is not. There is no testimony but

VARIETY PAYS BEST.
How to Use the Products of the Farm to
Advantage.

How to Use the Products of the Farm to
Advantage.
It is always more or less of ques-
tion for the feeder of live stock to de-
termine just where his feed will be
worth the most; whether it will be
best to feed for beef, pork or mutton;
or for milk, butter, cheese or wool
Prices one year cannot always be taken
as basis for another. as what pays
best one year will not always prove so
the next One of the advantages in
keeping a variety of stock is that a
better opportunity is afforded of realiz-
ing profit on the whole than when
dependence is placed upon one kind
of stock. If one could know the con-
dition of the market ahead in many
cases at least the feeding might be
done with better profit. BY keeping
a variety of stock the risks may be
greatly lessened. To this may be added
better opportunity of feeding out the
various farm products.
Where a system of rotation is fol-
lowed and a variety of crops grown a
large per cent would go to waste if
only one kind of stock were fed.
In growing the grain TO feed and fat
ten the hog there is more or less rough
ness that can be used to a good advan-
tage in feeding other kinds of stock,
and at less cost than when only one
kind of stock is kept Many could not
afford to keep cattle were it not for the
fact that during growth they can be
fed material that would, to consider
able extent at least, go to waste, and
while even then the margin of profit
may be small, yet it is converting un-
marketable products into money, and
at the same time securing more or less
manure to keep up the fertility. Rails
ing variety of crops lessons the risk
of failure and affords a better oppor-
tunity of keeping stock at a less cost,
while keeping a variety of stock af-
fords better opportunity Of using the
various products of the farm TO tle
best advantage, lessening the waste
and lessening the risks. Under some
conditions making a speciality of one
kind of stock may be the most protita-

cost for rough feed for them is as cents
per head per month; and shall be
able to sell at least ten tons of hay,
which would, without the fodder, all

bright straw can be used to winter
horses and cattle; they will eat it well
and thrive on it, but it is best that, in
stead of corn. the grain ration be bran
and oil meal; these balance the ration
and enable the animal u digest the
straw much better than if it is fed
with corn, for the straw is deficient in
albuminoids, and the bran and OIL
meal are both rich in this essential ele-
ment. The greatest waste of the farm
is in the use of feed, and little study
and investigation is needed to enable
us to overcome tbis waste. If, with
the sharp competition they must meet,
our manufacturers showed as little in
telligence as we farmers do, they would
every one be bankrupt in single year

1t happened that when Col. Streight
of Indiana, made his famous raid into
Georgia in the spring of 1864, in an
abortive attempt to destroy the arsenal
at Rome and draw away Bragg's cav
airy from the front of Rosecrans, then
at Tullahoma, he had in his command
as guides and scouts some fifty East
Tenneseeans, picked from regiments at
Nashville, for this special duty. These
mountaineers proved invaluable to the
command in plotting it through the
passes and defiles of the rugged coun-
try in which Streight's rough-riders OPP

service on the raid both as guide and on
the skirmish line in the daily bouts
with FORESTS men before the capture.
He and the writer, who was memb
of an Ohio regiment in Streight's COM

of the disastrous expedition and before
the day of capitulation had become
