There Is well nigh hay famine in Europe.
News has been received Of the failure Of fodder
crops in most countries Of EuroBe, and hay
prices in England have been reported at nearly
$40 per ton. Germany has prohibited the ex-
portation of all hay and other forage in order
to prevent large shipments to France. The
heavy shortage Of oats in Austria has caused
that Government 70 add one third corn in place
Of oats for army horses. Hay has been imported
into the countries named from various sections

the hay crop IS the largest known for years, and
the eIover-hay crop has already been harvested

yield this country a vast amount of money In
spite of the large crop, Eastern prices are firm
because of the situation abroad. How far hay
be proftably shipped depends, of course,
upon the foreign price; but there seems to be
a chance that the Pacific coast may even profit
by the demand. Ii is said that hay is being
looked after in Nevada for shipment to Europe.
One shipper says be wants $4,000 tons for this
purpose As the overland roads are very short
of local freights between California and the
Missouri River they may make rates to favor
the hay trade.

Experiments by Prof Henry show very con-
elusiyely that corn or eOrnmeal is by no means
the best food for pork growing though good
for fattening. Wheat middlings he found
much better than corn alone. He also found,
by careful experiments, several times repeated,
that 200 pounds of eornmeal and 1852 pounds
of skimmilk produced as much growth as 500
pounds of the middlings meal mixture and
better growth than 500 pounds of clean corn
meal. In this we see that five pounds of skim
milk are about equal to one pound of meal
The lesson for the pig feeder in these expert
ments is to feed young thrifty pigs and to feed
them on mixture of eornmeal and wheat mid
dlings, and never to feed them beyond $50
pounds dressed weight.

PERFECT THROUGH SUFFERING.


Selected for G.. Elmer Slater
God never would send you the darkness
If he felt you could bear the light,
But you would not cling to his guiding hand
If the way were always bright;
And you would not care to walk by faith,
Could you always walk by sight.
IT'S true he has many an anguish
For your sorrowful heart to bear,
And many n cruel thorn crown
For your tired head to wear;
He knows how few would reach heaven at oil
If pain did not guide them there.
So he sends you the binding darkness,
And the furnace of sevenfoid heat;
IT'S the only way, believe me,
To keep you close to his feet;
For tits always so easy to wander
When our lives glad and sweet.
Then clasp your hand in your Fathers
And sing. if you can, as you go:
Your song may cheer someone behind you,
Whose courage is sinking low;
And, well, If your lips do CULVER
God will love you better so.
Minnie V. Case, White Oak, o.
