THE NEWS IN BRIEF.
The Semi SInmghtercrs.

The American Boring sea commission
ers, Professors Mcndenhall and Merriam,
state that they must report that the de
struction of seal life i'm North Pacific wa.
ters by Canadian poachers amounts to
S250,000 animals annually for a catch of
10000 to go, 600 skins, says the New York
Press. The enormous number of seals
that owe their death to the rccklessness of
the Canadians has decreased the number
of seals visibly i'm the last five or six years.
The poachers have not hesitated to kill fe-
male seals bearing young or having young
in the rOOkeries who subsequently starved
to death for want of natural nourishment
The methods of the American sealcrs
have been so carefully prescribed 10y the
treasury department that even when the
number OF seals allowed to be- taken in a
single year was 100, 600 they were all killed
on land and selected with special reference
to the preservation of seal life. 1t is for
this reason that the burden of destruction
of seal life is fastened by our commission
ers upon the Canadian poaChers. What
ever the cause of the decrease of seals in
numbers some arrangement should be
made at once for the cessation of the prac-
tice of killing the animals in the open wa
ter, where there is no means by which they
can be distinguished in sex and where the
sealers rarely secure more than one in
three of the seals killed.

William Long, negro, was arrested
Thursday night at Chicago while trying to
dispose of stolen silyerware. He was
locked up, and two hours afterward the
turnkey found him hanging by his sus-
penders apparently dead. Long was cut
down and pronounced dead. 1t was decided
to take the body to the Michael Reese hos
pital on the way to the morgue and get a
doctors certificate BY order of the hos
pital physicians Longs body was carried
into the dissecting room. The surgeon
and two assistants entered. "This would
be good subject to work on, boys said
the surgeon. give been looking for a
niger for some time" "IIe seems too big
for the table, said another: 81 think I'll
cut him in two and place half of him in
the other room At these words the sup
posed corpse jumped from the table, and
before the police or physicians could recOv-
er from their establishment, William leaped
out of the window, which was on the sec
ond floor \ policeman caught him and
put him i'm cell.

AGRICULTURAL.
"nnInneed nntInns."

The Cultivator gives a common-sense
talk on a subject which we have heard
much about in recent years:
"Chcmsts are ready to prescribe well
balanced rations,' compounded of such
rough fodder as one may have, with GER
tain proportions of such grains as they can
buy conveniently, but really they amount to
but little. The individual character of the
animal and its present condition should
have much to do with it. The COW that is
giving four or five gallons of milk day
not only naturally requires more food than
the one that is giving but four or i've
quarts, but wants a different quality to
supply the drain upon her system, and
each i'm her turn differs from the one that
is giving no milk. but is heavy with calf.
The ration suitable for the hciter that has
her first calf now would scarcely be adapt
ed to the old COW that has been heavily
granted for a half-dozen winters, and the
draft horse and the trottng horse are not
to be fed alike.
"'Thc farmer should be able to balance
his rations for himself He knows that the
poorer the quality of his rough fodder the
more nutritious should be the grain given
with it. either in quantity or quality.
With early cut bright hay, or rowen, or
ensilage, he should know that one feed a
day should be of coarser and dryer fodder,
while with hay cut when overripe, or dried
too much in the curing, he should give
roots, or such grain as would be slightly
laxative. And he should know how to
apportion it to the different animals. If he
does not, or if he does, he should watch
the excrements to see how thoroughly that
food is digested. Then he should watch
the growth, and the performance at the
pail to know when it is kept up to the most
profitable point, and he will soon be able
to balance his books upon the right side,
although he may have to dispose of some
of the Improbable animals in order to do
it,
Vermont phÅ“nix. [volume] (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1834-1955, 1892-02-12

4 Danish professor who has made eN
periments i'm that direction, states that
cows give more milk when they are MIXED
twice a day. but more butter is secured
from the milk when the cows are MIXED
three times daily.
Keep no horse, COW or sheep with small,
contracted nostrils. They are one of the
best indicators of the vitality and seryicea-
bility to he found. A large, full, open
nostril is sure evidence of the free use of
the lungs, and this means better blood and
more of ii,
Professor Roberts says: 81 would as
soon deposit $50 or 500 in a bank, week
after week, never keeping any account of it
and knowing no account was kept at the
bank, as to run a dairy without knowing
