The best results for the number O
pounds eaten were obtained where cor,
and wheat was fed half and half b,
weight, the next best result obtained
where wheat was fed alone, while whc1
corn was fed alone, the least increase
was made for the number of pounds of
food eaten. The differences in all cases
were slight.
Neither in the absolute gain in
weight, the total amount of food eaten.
nor In the increase made for the food
consumed. were the differences greater
than might be reasonably expected
with three lots Of carefully selected
hogs fed on exactly the same kind of
food.
1t took 43S pounds of wheat to make
100 pounds of increase, and 453 pounds
OF corn to make the same pain in
weight. A bushel of wheat made 13.7
10 OF pork, while bushel of corn made
1913 ID. This is in part due to the diff
ferent feeding value of the wheat and
corn, and in part to the fact that there
are GO pounds of wheat in bushel and
only Sc pounds in bushel of corn. The
hogs sold for S5.15 per hundred weight.
Pntting aside the question of labor. a
bushel of wheat brought us 7o.5c a
bushel, and bushel of corn 63. Sc.
With wheat at 55c per bushel the cost
pf food for 100 pounds of increase was
S4.01, while with corn at 35c per bushel
the cost of the food for 100 pounds of
increase was se.s5. According to this
experiment it would have been profit
able procedure to trade wheat for corn
at the ruling prices, for the purpose of
fattcning hogs.

Where Snow Is Red,

Snow is sometimes found in Po,a,
and Alpine regions, where it lies un.
melted from year to year, and the
annual fall is small, colored red by
the presence of innumerable small
red plants.
In its native state the plant con.
sists of brilliant red globules on a
gelatinous mass.
Red snow was observed by the
ancients, q passage in Aristotle re-
ferring to it, but 1t attracted little
or no attention until 176O, when
Sanssure observed it in the Alps.
and concluded that it was due to the
pollen of a plant.
1t was also noticed by the arctic
expedition under Capt. Ross on
Bafin's bay shore on a range of
cliffs, the red color penetrating to a
depth OF twelve feet.

Potatoes with Their jackets.

An English scientist, after care
full experiments, finds that when DO
tatoes are cooked without removing
the skins they lose only three PEI
cent. of nutritive quality through
extraction of the juice. When th,
skins are removed before boiling the
loss was fourteen per cent, which
makes the process of cooking the po

THE IMPORTANCE OF FOREST
TREE CULTURE,

How to Improve Our Wood Land, BY Prof
william X. Lazerby, Department of Hor.
ttculture and Forestry, Ohio State Uni.
yersity.
For years l have been convinced that
the growing of forest trees, and the
preservation, improvement and extern
sion of our existing wood lands are of
signal Importance to the farmers of
Ohio. There can be no doubt that the
reckless destruction Of our forests is
beginning to affect our climate. Many
q gray-haired farmer in the state will
remember the time when our climate
was less harsh and capricious than it is
ut present. Springs and wells now
fail where failure was unknown a few
years ago. Our streams and rivers
shrink to much smaller dimensions
during our dry summers and rise high
er during freshets. Drouths do not
come every year. but they are much
uore frequent than they were in the
past. They are also more severe and
more protracted. Tornadoes are moro
common and more destructive. The re.
moval of so large a portion of our tim
Der may not be the sole and only cause
pf these changes, put that it is one
cause no thoughtful person can deny.
Admitting that we do not know inst
how far or in what direction forests in
nuence climate, we do know that the
wanton and wasteful destruction of our
tAhoer trees, without any effort to re-
place or restore the loss. is compelling
those that come after us to paw manv /,
times the cost at which we might and !
should have grown them 1t is of no
use to mourn over the past. but we
ought TO have the courage to admit our
mistakes. and the good sense to. as far
as s4ossibie. correct them. In order to
our existing wood lots. and
cause them to be constantly increasing
IN value, it. Is only necessary to keep up
a constant succession of young. thrifty
trees of the best varieties. We can do
this easily and chaaply by observing
certain conditions. of these the first
and most essential is to allow no stock
TO run in our wood lots for the purpose
of pasturage. This paust be an iafiex-
lble rule; If we desire a good crop of
corn we DO not use the field where the
,rop is growing for pasture. I
Somehow or other the average farm !
II seems to think that the little food
MS cattle can obtain by browsing
through his woods is so much clear

So, thanks to her good sense in
consulting an old senator, this lady
did not make the mistake that a
few less wise senator's wives have
done Of making first visits when
etiquette required that they should
receive them. Of course, as the
senate has increased in size the last
few years, it can hardly be expected
that foreign ministers should call

Measuring Mi.Iioneth of a Degree,

Prof. Langley, of the Smithsonian
institution, has brought his balo-
meter to state of high perfection.
This Instrument, in theory extreme
ly simple, is a fine wire through
Thich a current Of electricity is kept
flowing. The resistance of the
wire varies with the tempera-
ture, and hence the strength of
the current also varies. By meas
uring the current, therefore, the
temperature of the wire can be ascer-
tanned. AS is well known, Prof.
Langley has explored the invisible
regions of the solar spectrum with
this device, proving by it that in
them, as well as in the luminous por-
tions, fine absorption lines exist. In
this and in other fields it has easilv
taken place as one of the most val
liable of existing instruments. In
the latest and most delicate form the
wire is 1000 inch wide and Is. coo
inch thick, and q difference of en-
perature amounting to 1-1,OOO, 600
centlgrade can be perceived.
