Professor w. w. Cooke of the Yer

letin on several waste products from
corn that are being sold for cattle food.
Three products tested were cream gluten
meal, corn germ feed and Buffalo gluten
feed. The latter is sold under the gen.
eral name of sugar meal" and is by
product in the manufacture of glucose
sugar rom corn. 1t is good feed, but is
very concentrated and, like cottonseed
meal, should be fed sparingly. Three
pounds per LAY are enough.

CELERY FOR WINTER USE.

The New Method Successfully Tested.
Storing In Root Cellar and In Pits.
The labor involved in blanching celery
has been the great drawback to its more
general culture. 1t has now been found
that just us good celery can be grown by
setting the plants six or seven inches
apart each way on very rich soil and do
ing nothing more to them, except to
keep the ground free from weeds till
they are large enough to completely shade
it. Being so close together, they will
grow straight up and blanch perfectly.
This method has been thoroughly tested
on both Il large and small scale and has
proved Il grand success. Celery grown
i'll this way should be sheltered from the
wind i'll some manner. as it is so brittle
that a heavy wind will destroy it.
Celery for winter use may he stored in
a root cellar or i'll pitt the garden.
Although growing celery will stand sew
eral hard frosts without injury, it is al
ways best to care for it before there is
any danger of freezing. Never handle
it while wet or frosty. Should the tops
become frozen shear them off before
storing. If put into cellar, the roots
should be moistened occasionally with
out wetting the leaves.
Quality considered. writes q CORE
spondent of The Rural New Yorker and
authority for the foregoing, pit in the
garden is the best place for keeping Gel
cry. Dig trench the width of IL spade
and as deep as the celery is tall, and as
long as may be needed Into this set the
plants upright and close together Make
cover by mailing two wide boards to-
gether A fashion. 1t is best to have this
roof III sections about 2 feet long for ease
in getting at the celery. Better still is Il
roof made of wide old doors, which will
make place large enough for one to
crawl into to look after the celery. If
taken care of, these covers will last for
years. Let the roof project little be-
You'd the celery at each end.
AS the weather becomes cold, cover
we'll with leaves or bog hay, but never
use anything containing any grain, us it
will draw mice. Leave openings III the
ends for ventilation and have something
on hand to stop them up with on cold
nights. Stored i'll this way, celery will
keep all winter, will blanch perfectly
and retain all its good qualities. 1t can
be taken out at one end of the trench as
wanted with very little trouble. Celery
grown i'll Il hotbed can very easily he
covered up and kept all winter right
where it grew.

English LRvincs.

There are about IA, 900 livings in Eng
land and Wales. OF these nearly z 1000
are in the gift of tho crown, Prince of
Wales, lord chancellor. bishops, chap
tiers, archdeacons,. universities, rectors
and Wears (as such) and trustees. About
1000 others are i'll the patronage (as to
1,400) of peers and (as to the rest of 9TH
er titled persons. Although now and
again nobleman's livings are sold, and
even distinguished colleges have been
caught tripping in the matter of simony.
it is among the remaining $500 livings
that almost all the traffic exists. Stats
tics fail us here.
No doubt the majority of these 1850
belong to patrons who recognize their
responsibility. What fraction of them
have been acquired as to patronage or
incumbency by means more or less faint
ed it is impossible, to say. The clergy
list" for 1892, however, shows that there
are SOB livings where the incumbent and
the patron are the same person and 424
where both are of the same name. A
considerable proportion of the parson
patrons have, it can hardly be doubted,
become patrons in order to present them
selves. On the other hand. some of the
SOB and Il large number of the 424 repre-
sent family ivings." AS to these, it
would be inaccurate to say that the liv-
ing has been bought for the sake of the
parson, but in many cases the parson
has been ordained for the sake Of the
living. Contemporary Review.

Oxeyc Daisy.

AT least five processes may be named
for subduing that most obstinate pest
the oXeye daisy, says The Country Gen
tleman-viz: 1. Pillow deep in August.
sow rye and pasture in autumn and
spring or cut for hay; plow deep again
and drill with rape. 9. Pasture till
June, then plow deep SOW rye in drills
and cultivate we'll 3. Plow lightly aft
er harvest and deep before winter and
harrow in the interval to start seeds; fol-
low with corn. 4. Sow rye and pasture
till June; follow with millet or bare fall
low until September, then with winter
wheat. 8. Now the daisies in blossom,
and repeat rs often as necessary
The objection to all these methods is
that they do not accomplish their work
i'll one season. Another, which may be
termed II sixth method, is fallow, going
over the ground once week through
the summer. The objection is that all
farmers want Il crop on the land, and
very few have enough thoroughness and
energy to keep the ground constantly
and completely clear. Cultivating in
drills is more costly and not so thorough.
More wholesale work is done with the
pillow.

The tomato IA Vegetable. Not a Fruit.

Regarding the much vcxed question,
Is the tomato IL fruit or vegetable:
there are conflicting replies The
American Cultivator classes tomatoes
with fruits and says i'll explanation
The distinction between vegetable an6
% fruit is puzzling at times. y technical
difference is that fruit incloses the
seeds of the plant and natures above
ground, while plant growth matured
under ground is vegetable. The Prairie
Farmer, on the other hand, calls the to-
mato vegetable and substantiates its
claim by quoting decision of the
United States court-that the tomato is a
vegetable, not Il fruit. The question
comes before it in an action brought
Feb. 4, 1887, against the collector of the
port of New York to recover back du-
ties, paid under protest, ON tomatoes
imported from the West Indies.

THE MESSAGE.

The most extraordinary thing about
the presidents message, which was
delivered to congress Monday, was
it's great length. 1t is a wearisome
document given up largely to little
details. Some three columns of it is
iven up to foreign matters which
few people care about, while the in
terestlng matters on foreign relations
the Hawaiian question-which ev.
eryone desired to hear about, is re,
served for a future communication
The message is padded to large ex.
tent with tiresome department sta.
tistics which have little in them tc
interest the general public.
The two chief points of his mes
sage which will interest the general
public are finance and tariff. He dep.
recates further legislation upon the
financial question, and takes course
thereon which will be endorsed by the
people generally without regard to
party. On the tariff question he ap-
proves the Wilson bill, and thinks it
measure which will meet the re-
quirements of the nation. Those
who had hoped that the result Of the
recent election would cause him TIC
take more decided stand in favor OF
American interests will be sadly dis.
appointed.
