Mutton Growing In America.

Each year this country is becoming
more and more a mutton-erowing coun-
try. and the sheep kept are of the Eng
lish breeds, which have been reared for
over century on tur7ips and man.

to maintain the health. of these sheep
and keep up their breeding propensi-
ties we must, to some extent, follow
the English method of feeding. Eng
land feeds but sixteen bushels of grain
to her animals, while we in America
feed forty-seven bushels. England has
the reputation of prols = the finest
mutton in the world and her foclSs pro

Diarrhea In Lambs.

This is a common disease in young
lambs and is due to the ewes being dis
eased in some way, probably by un-
wholesome food of some kind. 1t is
apt to appear when the ewes are over
fed with grain, or are exposed to wet
or damp, or kept in steaming stables
that are too close and warm The
remedy is to remove the cause and give
the ewes some warm oatmeal Cruel
sweetened and favored with half a tea
spoonful of ground ginger. 1t is worse
than useless to give any astringents. as

The VALUE OF BRAN.
It Can BE Fed to Good Advantage 1
Summer.

Summer.
With nearly all kinds of stock bran
can be fed to good advantage. and espe-
cially SO during the summer. At the
prices it is usually sold at during the
summer it makes one of the very cheap
est foods that can be supplied Some
use more or less in the dairy; but while
it makes a valuable food for the cows
and teams, brood mares and growing
pigs can be given more or less to good
advantage. 1t can be fed for milk, for
growth, to .add to the variety. and for
manure. For fertilizing alone it adds
nearly or quite its cost to the manure
and for this purpose at least it is worth
twice the value of coarse meal One
advantage in feeding it is that there is
little or no waste, is easily assimilated
and contains but small amount of in
digestible material. 1t is also in a con-
dition to be combined to good advan-
tage with other materials. In itself it
is not complete food; in feeding in
nearly all cases its best results are Sc
cured by feeding in connection with
other materials. With the mich cows,
oil meal, corn meal and bran with good
pasturage make complete ration for
milk and butter.
With growing pigs bran can be used
with middlings. ground oats, barley OF
cornmeal, and if made into slop with
sweet skim milk with any of these il
will aid materially in securing strong,
vigorous growth with a good develop
ment of bone and muscle. For the
teams bran can be combined with al
most any kind of grain with benefit,
while with unthreshed oats, if they are
run through a cutting box, it makes
one of the best rations that can be sup
piled.
Many purchase bran all through tbs
| winter from necessity; in many locali
ties from this time out 1t can be secured
at fair prices, so that generally it can be
bought and used in connection with
other materials to good advantage.
When grain raising is combined with
| stock feeding the manurial value of al
feeds must be considered if the fertility
of the soil is to be kept up, and with
bran this is one item gained, as it is one
| of the best materials that can be fed tC
stock when the value of the manure il
| an item. 1t is not best to depend upor

more or less can be used to a good ad

Training the First Essential.

The breeder who would win stakes,
sell quickly and profitably and make
the blood of his stations and mares a
marketable quantity must train and
train early. Not so long ago it was
phenomenal for stallion to have one
in the list at ten years of age or to be
represented by two-year-olds and
three-year-olds- Excuses must now be
made for the stallion whose youngsters
do not find their way into their list at
two or three, and the indications are
that before many years the yearling
$50 list will be quite a factor in judg-
ing strains of blood. In the evolution
of the trotting breed the history of the
thoroughbred is merely repeating itself.

Cow Pea Cultivation,

For cow peas the ground should be
plowed after corn planting and made as
fine as possible. AT the experiment
stations the planting is done in June.
Use the harrow literally. Plant about
half as far apart as corn rows and about
two and half inches deep in this
climate; use bushel of seed to the
acre. They are ripe enough to cut for
feed in from fifty to seventy days
they are then about half ripe. Cut and
cure like clover. All kinds of stock are
fond of them, and they are rich in
nutriment, but if fed unmixed with
grass be sparlng at first, till cattle be-
come accustomed to them. They can
be threshed like other grain, except if
intended for seed. A machine breaks
them too much

cLEvELAND'S PROGRAMME.
Failure Predicted for the Democratic
Party.

Failure Predicted for the Democratic
Party.
In a recent issue of the ''Forum"
Charles Francis Adams, friend of the
administration, enumerates the prob
lens with which President Cleveland is
confronted, and makes an estimate of
what he is likely to accomplish. Here
is the programme:
First-He is pledged to reform Of
the tariff system
Second-He must struggle with the
silver question.
Third-It is in his power either to de-
moralize the civil service, or to extend
the reforms which have already been
begun in it
Fourth-He may hope to reduce the
expenditures of the country again
within reasonable limits by purging
and correcting the pension lists.
Some other things were mentioned in
the Chicago platform, but doubtless the
most important will fall under one or
other of the subjects mentioned.
In regard to the changes likely TO be
made in the tariff Mr.. Adams says:
''One thing is certain, the tendency of
the people of the United States is dis
tinctly toward protection of every
character. Witness the numerous
trades unions, the combinations of cap
| ital against labor, and labor against cap
ital, the popular depreciation every
where noticeable of,what are known as
the influences of the natural laws of
trade. In this depreciation, /, personally
do not share. Nevertheless, no observing
man can for moment fail to see that
within the last twenty years the move
J ment has been almost wholly one of re-
action against the teachings of the
economical school of which Adam
Smith was the head, and those of the
political school of jefferson AS see,
the high protective system of this coun-
try, including the silver legislation, is
but one phase, and somewhat of su-
| perficial, surface phase at that, In this
great reactionary movement, a move
ment by no means confined to America
On the contrary. it is working quite as
violently in France, Italy and Germany
as it is here" Consequently, even with
the best will in the world, Mr.. Cleve-
land will not be able to effect much in
the way of tariff reduction
In regard to silver, the civil service
and national expenditure, Mr.. Cleve-
land might be able to do much if he
had the hearty support of congress, but
this. Mr. Adams thinks, he will not
have. Consequently, few, If any.
changes in existing conditions are to be
looked for.
In other words, Mr.. Adams, warm
supporter of Mr. Cleveland and his
party, feels called upon at this early
stage of democratic rule to predict
failure in order that the people may
not be disappointed when they find
that the party in power accomplishes
nothing. In his opinion the democracy
has ceased to be even party OF de-
struction. and everybody knows that 1t
never had any constructive power

III R<rie1r Of Rsrislrs for February con-
tains On article by Robert J. Finley on electric
street lighting in American cities. in which he
says: "More than l25 cities in the United States
now own and operate plants. In twenty-three
cities from which data were gathered the
average cost per arc light per year is $50 Ga
This includes interest and depreciation at u

One important factor not included in this
