The VALUE OF BRAN.
It Can Be Fed to Good Advantage In
Summer.

It Can BE Fed to Good Advantage In
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
1t makes q valuable food for the cows
and teams, brood mares and growing
pigs can be given more or less to q good
advantage. It 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 il
little or no waste, is easily assimilated
and contains but small amount of in
digestible material. Its 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

milk and butter.
With growing pigs bran can be used
with middings. ground oats, barley or
cornmeal, and If made into slop with
sweet skim milk with any of these it
Will aid materially in securing strong,
vigorous growth with a good develop
nent 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 cutting box, it makes
one Of the best rations that can be sup
piled.
Many purchase bran all through the
winter from necessity; in many locali-
ties from this time cut it 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 all
| feeds must be considered if the fertility
of the soil is to be kept up, and with
bran thus is one item gained, as it is one
| of the best materials that can be fed to
stock when the value of the manure is
an item. 1t is not best to depend upon
bran alone, but on nearly all farms
more or less can be used to good I'D
vantage:-Prairie Fxrmer.

Training the First Essential.

The breeder who would win stakes,
sell qnickly and profitably and make
the blood of his stations and mares a
marketable quantity must train and
train early. Not so long ago it --as
phenomenal for stallion to have one
in the list at ten years of age or to be
represented by two-yeaT>olds and
three-year-olds. Excuses must now be
made for the stallion whose youngsters
do not fnd their way into their list at
two or three, and the indications are
that before many years the yearline
ESQ 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.

The heavy layer of bread next the
bottom and sides of the loaf is probably
caused by not leaving the bread long
enough in the bowl,or the pan when it
is rising It should rise each time after
.lxneading till it is double in bulk. Al
WAYS rub little lard or butter on the
outside while it IS rising to prevent
hard crust forming. Let the bread rise
at least three-quarters of an hour in the
pans. If this does not remedy the mat
ter the trouble may he in the oven,
though in that case Nhe bread would
not be likely to be light in the center.

hour. A half-baked loaf sometimes acts
Ia this way.-N. Y. Tribrne.
