FOR The FARMERS.
USEFUL INFORMATION ABOUT FARM
WORK.
Whes,t Feeding Results Stated In a
NutShel1-A Temporary Pole or
Rail Fence-A Farm Wagon House.

In Kansas. under the conditions as to
product and prices Of wheat and corn
existing in the years 1895, wheat has
become. very unusual and very i'm.
portant factor in the grain feeding Of
all classes Of farm stock. 1t is superior
to corn, pound for pound, as a grain
to produce healthful, wel-balanced
growth in young animals. Mixed with
corn, oats or bran, it is much superior
to either alone, for the work-horse.
Fed to cows, it is an exceptional milk
producer, and for that purpose corn is
scarcely to be compared with it. It
is a superior food for all fowls, and as
promoter Of the maximum egg pro-
lductiOn, is unsurpassed by any other
grain.
For swine Of all ages, it is health
full and agreeable food, giving generous
returns in both framework and flesh,
but fed whole, especially without soak
ing, is used at disadvantage. Ground
and made into Stops, it is invaluable
for sucking sows, and for pigs both
before and after weaving. ID.
Il For cattle, it has, at least as a part
of their grain rations, a very high val
ue. Which is much enhanced in the line
of needed variety by mixing with corn,
and in a Still greater degree by mixing
judiciously with bran, Oil cake or other
albumnious foods tending to balance
the too carbonaceous nature of the
clear wheat. -s..t-E f..
With corn and wheat approximating
the same price per bushel, it is not
Improbable nor wicked to feed the
wheat; yet, if it can be ground, rolled.
crushed or in some way broken at a
total cost not exceeding five to seven
cents per bushel. to feed it whole and
dry is unwise. It can be ground at a
cost of five cents, and on a majority
Of Kansas farms for very much less.
If grinding is impracticable, soaking
