FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

The successful %dairymau keeps no
cows except those of good age.
A new variety of beekeepers is needed
more than a new variety oil bees.
Activity devoted to the useful honey
bee is a good definition of happiness.
The truly scientific boekeeper is mod
est. He is aware how little is positively
known.
The nearer a man gets to his bees the
less reason there is for his being afraid
of them.
At no time should fowls be fed more
than they will eat up clean in a few
minutes.
He who tries to solve all the problems
of beekeeping will fud it takes a little
longer than a lifetime.
Ensilage fed with a grain ration makes
the kind of butter for which the public
are willing to pay for.
The stuff made from cream by the use
of black pepsin is a fraud. 1t will not
keep. 1t will kill your butter trade.
1t is the opinion Of a good many dairy
men that ensilage Is just as good for
milk and butter as the best p~asturage.
AS raised on the average farm, it will
cost little, if any, more to raise turkeys
per pound, than pigs, while the turkeys,
whether sold alive OF dressed, will bring
several cents more per pound.
An experience Of over twenty years in
fattening sheep convinces Professor
Roberts that it pays to have a regular
system, to be followed as nearly as pos
sible. in both feeding and marketing
sheep.
Corn fodder is one of the most digest
ible of plants used for cattle food. In
careful experiments seventy-two per
cent. of the dry, organic matter has been
digested, as against sixty per cent. of
timothy.
The feed of the turkeys should be
gradually increased now, especially all
those intended fo- market. In selling
weight is an important item, and good
feeding some time in advance is neces-
sary to secure this.

ECONOMY IN FEEDING CORN.

The science of feeding has made
greater progress during the past twenty
five years than has been made in any
other department of science. There is
no kind of feed of which this is more
true than of corn. There Is much less
waste of corn now, aud the ration is
merely to be so balanced with other
foods as to produce the best results. 1t
is hardly too much to say that of the
old.time corn feeding fully half was
either wasted, or worst still, was so fed as
to do quite as much harm as it did good.
We have often heard of young pigs
stunted and their digestion ruined for
life by too early and exclusive feeding
of corn. Probably one reason why
breeding sows so as to let them farrow
in the spring has become popular, was
because at this season corr was apt to
be scarce and not fed so liberal as in
the fall. With a whole summers run in
the pasture and fed on swill with little
corn, the pigs by the time they were SIX
or seven months old could be fed freely
with corn without injury.
By feeding more wheat bran and milk
feed to all young animals, a considera-
BILE proportion of corn may be given
with great advantage. Both are much
better for all animals than either alone.
1t is often thought that full grown fat
tening hogs do best with nothing except
corn, If laying on fat to be converted
into grease or lard be the object this
may be true. But a much better Quail
itY of pork for the present demand is
made by giving even to fattening hogs
a small proportion of bran or middlings
and also a few roots. These will be
eaten as a change of feed. Appetite
will thus be kept up, and perhaps as
much corn eaten or wen more than if il
were an exclusive diet.
The effect of a large feeding of corn
to mich COWS in causing a tendency to
iatten rather than to give milk is well
understood. But it is none the less
true that some corn meal may be fel
every day to COW that have a large pro-
portion of succulent food with good re-
suits both in amount and quality of
milk. Much sowed or drilled corr when
put in too thickly to ear is not rich
enough without reinforce meut with corn
to furnish carbon and fat, and also more
Of the strengthening elements THAI are
found in cornstalks alone. As often
made from stalks of sowed or drilled
corn the ensilage is too watery and un.
nutritious. More corr either in the silo
or added to the silage when fed is the
cheapest aud easiest way to correct this
deficiency. This is especially important 10

any kind is apt to become a cold mass,
chilling the stomach and needing the
addition of extra carbon to maintain
animal heat. Boston Cultivator.

A Fortune for n Snowdrlft.

1.-THE most artistic swindle known to

distance of 300 feet, timbered it up

of dollars. The Englishmen were
charmed with it and the prospect. They
bought up the claim for $50, 900 spot

quartz mill machinery. When they re-

In so far as creature endowed

said to be man-made. Horses were
an important factor in the early
nomadic life, and were cherished by
their owners, and the progress of
! civilization, so far from breaking this
bond, has apparently strengthened IL.
The animal is not now so essential to
human welfare and convenience, ac-
cording to the indianapolis Journal;
science has furnished other means of
transportation, and is in fair way to
take all heavy loads from his back;
but in the degree that he ceases to be
mere beast OF burden he is trans
formed into source of entertain
ment and pleasure. From a rough
and hardy creature, subsisting on
such ratiOns as chance and convent
ence might provide, and suffering the
hardships and hazards of toll and ad-
venture, he has gradually evolved
into a combination of nerves, intelli-
gence and trained muscle that has

blooms by the roadside Like those
floral triumphs he is a product of
scientific culture. 1t IS not chance
that has given him that peculiar
build, that slenderness and lightness
that to the expert means speed. His
masters have wanted these develop
ments, and they have studied sire and

they could name in advance the
qualities of the offspring. And hav-

and combed until his coat is like
satin; he is fed and housed and exer-
ciSed with as much care for his COM
fort as for child's; royalty itself IS
not looked after with more solicitude.
The attention that ancient Greeks
used to give to their own bodily
training is given by modern men to
the race-horse, and, as a result, he is
a marvel of physical perfection. And
after all this? Why, when he has
been tested and his PAGES tried he is
put upon the race track. where his
beauty and grace and swiftness please
