MILK VARIATION IN COWS.

An exact record OF the milk results
from six cows has been KEPT throug n
fifteen months by E. H. Farsington' OF
the Illinois Station. The shortest
milking period of any of the cows was
27S days, and the longest was 40
DAYS. The butter fat was the most
chanceable constituent of the milk.
The per cent. of solids not fat was
unite uniform. Both were higher in
the last part of the period OF lactation
than in the first, when the COWS were
fresh. and the minimum quantity OF
milk was produced This was
especially true of the fat. As the ac-
tivitv of the milk glands gradually
declines until the flow of milk ceases
the formation of the fat seems to be
longer maintained than that OF the
other milk constituents. Calculations
of the total amount OF milk ana VI
butter fat were made from one, two,
three and four of the weights and tests
of each month. The results so OBJ
tanned were found to be, in many
cases, ninety-nine, and in no case less
than ninety per cent. of the totals
found by the daily weights and tests.
A gradual increase of the grain feed
from twelve to twenty-four pounds
day per head, and the change from the
stable to pasture feed, each increased
the Weld of milk, but had very little
effect on its quality.-American Agri-
o,,1turist

Why Picnics Arc So Called.

Everybody knows what a picnic is,
but most folks would find it hard to
say how it got that name, and yet it
Is simple enough when you come to
learn it. When picnic was being
arranged for, the custom originally
was that those who intended to be
present should supply the eatables
and drinkables. A list of those ne
cessities having been drawn up, it
. was passed round, and each person
picked out the article Of food or drink
that he or she was willing to furnish,
and the name Of the article was
nicked, or licked of the list. The
open-aiT entertainment thus became
known as "pick and nick" The Gus
tom is said to have dated from 1902,
50 that the picnic is wholly an insti-
tuition Of the nineteenth century.

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
PEAS AND OATS FOR FEED.

Farmers have long known that to SOW
oats and peas together made an excel
lent feed, cut any time before fully
ripe. They are both strongly nitro
genous, and yet paradoxically the com
bination does not exhaust the soil.
While the oat crop gets its nitrogen
from the soil, the pea root has power
to take nitrogen from soil-imprisoned
air. Sometimes We have thought,
noting how the oats thrive among the
peas, that the pea roots fed not only
their own plant but in some way lett
a little in the soil for the use OF oats

SUMNER RECESS OVER.
The Courts VIII Resume Re,ul.,
Work Tomorrow Norutup

what is known as the summer recess ~
the District Supreme Court ends TODAY ana
TOMORROW the court in all of its branches
begins the October term.
There VIII be two branches of the c,rc,,,,
or low side OF the court. Judge Bradley rre-
slolng over Circuit Court No /, and JrSva
Cox over Circuit Court No. 2 The docket
on the law side of the court win be d,ytaas
between the two circuit courts Judge
Bradley hearing the even-numbered cases
and Judge Cox the odd-numbered ones
Judge Bradley will also hear cases ON the
appeal docket Of the court. The calendar
for the term contains s6l cases. the Pollard
Breckenridge case being number go. The
number of the Pollard B-eckinridge case
being an even number. would bring IL be-
fore Judge Bradley should it be reached al
this term OF the court. But as the case is
virtually at the foot Of the calendar, SIS
cases having precedence over Il, its trial at
the october term is decidedly improhable
II not really impossible. Indeed, il is not
expected to be reached much earlier than
two years from now, which in all probabil-
ity VIII bring IL before some other Judge
than Judge Bradley. The appeal docket
contains seventy-tve cases, coming before
the court on appeal from judgments rem
dered by justices Of the peace. These cases
will, as usual, be given precedence by Judge
anu lOulOrfON assignment VIII
comprise the first ten cases.
The cases In the criminal branch Of the
court will be divided between Judge Nc
Comas, who will hold Criminal Court No.
i, and Judge Cole. who will preside over
Criminal Court No. 2. The criminal cases
will be so divided. OF course, that Judge
Cole Will not hear any case with which
as district attorney, he was connected
Such an arrangement would permit him TO
preside over the trial of Messrs. Ainsworth
Dant Covert and Sasse should the indict-
ments be sustained but IL is probab BILE that
as Judge McComas heard the demurrer
filed in the case he will preside at the trial,
although IL is understood that no such ar
rangemert has yet been made.
The equity cases Will probably be divided
between Chief Justice Bingham and Judge
Hagner, and one of these judges proba-
bly, Judge Hagner. will preside over the
Probate Court.
The principal business in the Circuit and
Criminal Courts tomorrow will be the or
ganization of the juries necessary. in the
absence of Judge Cole Judge McComas will
not only organize the grand jury and the
the jury for Criminal Court No. /, but also
the jury drawn for Criminal Court No. 2

Dullness Marks the State Of the
Market.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
NEW YORK. Oct 2-Today's market
opened from Ia to ga per cent below last
weeks closing and except for the special
ties was dull and featureless.
London was lower also and had some
selling orders on this side.
The market again shows signs OF uneasi-
ness, attributable to the still improved
statements concerning silver legislation
Last weeks runlors of early action in
this matter have not been revived and the
market is again thrown on its own re-
sources without any incentive to stimulate
trading or mark up prices
The short interest in the market has been
SO far reduced as to preclude the possibility
OF any considerable rise from covering as
might have been the case a week ago
Buying orders are scarce, and will be
more SO, unless investors have the assur-
ance That some effort will be made to re-
move the recognized cause of the recent
depreciation within a reasonable time
The Senate controls the situation and the
next movement in prices will come from
the conclusion of the long debate on repeal
or from continuation of it and may be
up or down, according to which of the above
courses is pursued
The new issue of stock by the Louisville
and Nashville has been ascribed to a va
riety of the company's needs and has led
abroad. The annual meeting of the stock
holders will be held on Wednesday, when
report OF the company's condition will be
made.
Except for slight increase in bonded

Janeiro bearing date October 1:
The insurgent squadron under command
of Admiral Mello is still in the bay of Rio
Janeiro, with ITS fighting elements weaken
ed Many of the members of the crews of
the rebel warships are deserving daily. Dur
ing the recent engagements between the
land forces and the fleet the shore artillery
damaged some of the rebel vessels. Two
steamers that attempted to land insurgents
at Santos and on the island of Santa Cath
arina were repulsed. The land forces are
united and loyal to the government Public
opinion is wholly opposed to the insur-
gents"
A dispatch received by the Exchange
Telegraph Company says that Admiral
Mello. who commands the insurgent Brazil
ian fleet, yesterday reopened fire upon the
forts defending the bay of Rio Janeiro.

tants again prevails.
