Wheat as Stock Food .

From the PhlIadelphla RECORD.
Attention is being attracted to
wheat as food for stock, every Sec
ton of the United States being in
terested. Corn has heretofore had
the preference, because it was
lower in price per bushel, and corn
is more extensively grown because
the large amount of slower adds to
the value of the crop, and less
outlay is required for implements
in harvesting. A home demand for
corn as stock food has also assisted
to give it the preference over
wheat, hence a larger area has
been devoted to corn and oats than
to wheat, ands greater crops of
those grains have been grown. The
fact that but little corn is export
ed, comparatively, though the corn
crop is usually three time as large
as that of wheat, indicates that the
amount used for stock is enormous,
and when it is considered that oats
find sale at home, the total amount
consumed on the farms, of all
grains, mostly as stock food, is per-
haps greater than that used for
consumption by the common
family, and requires less handling
and transportation.
Comparing corn and wheat an
alyses show that wheat contains
9.3 per cent of protein and corn IL
per cent. Protein is the muscle
producing substance. Corn con-
tains AZ per cent of fat, and wheat
is per cent; OF starch corn con-
tains 62.7 per cent and wheat 55.S
per cent. Both the fat and starch
are heat-producing and fat-for.
ming substance. 1t will thus be
noticed that while corn contains
a greater share of those substance
which are suitable for producing
fat, wheat eXcels in the music
making elements, yet wheat is but
little behind corn in fat and starch.
Wheat, as it contains more protein
than corn, is better adapted for
horses that work, for young stock
that are growing, and for cows that
are producing milk, while corn is
more suitable for rapid gain in fat.
Experiments in feeding wheat to
hogs at the Canada Experiment
Station, showed gain of about l
pound of pork for every 8 pounds
of wheat fed and at the Oregon
station, mixture of equal parts
of oats and wheat gave gain of l
pound for every As pounds Of the
mixture fed. Cattlemen contend
that a bushel of wheat is equal to
one and a third bushel of corn
that is, 60 pounds Of wheat are
equivalent to 70 pounds Of corn.
1t is not recommended to feed
whole wheat. Sheep can eat the
whole grains and so can horses
that are young, but it is better to
have it coarsely ground, the grind
ing mills used on farms being
capable of reducing it. When fed
to hogs it should be ground and
soaked. For cows it should be
ground and fed with equal parts
of corn and oats, or the whole may
be ground together. If bran is
added to the ground mixture the
food will contain more mineral
matter and protein, thus balanc-
ing the ration. AS all grains
should be fed in connection with
hay and other coarse foods, wheat
is no exception. The feeding of
wheat to stock will have an in
fluence on the "visible supply" so
frequently alluded to, as large
proportion will be used for stock

LARGE IMPORTS OF SUGAR.
Nearly $1,000 Tons Received at the
Three Principal Ports Last Week.

NEW YORK, March 10.-The large num-
Der of vessels arriving at this port from
the West Indies within the last two weeks
has. In connection with the violent fluctua-
tions in the stock of the Sugar Trust, at
tracted considerable attention. 1t has never
before been necessary to charter steamers
from regular lines in order to carry the
sugar crop, but this season several Of the
Southern Pacific company's boats have been
regular trips to Cuban ports. For the week
ending March Z there was received at the
three sugar ports of New York, Philadel-
phia and Boston sc, SO2 tons of 2,240 pounds
each. which was an increase of 1908 tons
over the corresponding week of last year.
The rushing forward of the Cuba crop is
alleged to be due simply to the fact that
the crop Is excessively large and must be
brought to market. That the crop is larger
is shown by figures from Cuba, which give
a production this season of 394, 900 tons,
against 341, 900 tons last season and 326, 900
tons for 1892. For the first eight days of
March thirty-siX vessels arrived at New
York with sugar from Cube and other West
Indian ports and Brazil. This fleet was
composed of ten steamers, nine barks, one
brig and sixteen schooners. the noteworthy
point being the number of the steamers,
which. while decreasing the number of ar
rivals. carry much larger cargoes and ac-
complish more work at less expense than
the smaller craft. The weeks imports were
valued at SO, 757, 402 at the three ports, of
which New York's share was 81. go. 298. In
connection with the figures relative to the
market for and stock of cane sugars, 1t is

ARMOR PLATE TEST
Superiority Of a New Process
Demonstrated at Indian Head.
Stocks of Wheat and Corn in First
Hands as Reported to the Agri-
cultural Department.

WASHINGTON, March 10.-The Navy
Department has received and to-day pro-
ceeded to test the first armor plates that
have been completed by the new and ex-
pensive harveyizing plant Of the Carnegie
works. The two plates do not represent
any particular lot designed for a vessel,
but are experimental plates, submitted to
undergo trial TO demonstrate the efficiency
OF the new plant in producing the harvey
lied plates. The experiment was conducted
at the government proving station at Indian
Head. Only one plate was tested, that one
being ten inches thick and eight by ten
feet. Three shots were fired from a dis
lance OF three hundred feet. The first was
q Carpenter eight-Inch shell, a little longer
than the ordinary shells. which struck the
plate about sixteen inches from the top
and the same distance from one side with
q velocity OF 1,841 feet. The point of the
shell was welded into the plate and the
fragments scattered. Two slight cracks
were inflicted upon the plate. neither OF
Inch Hotter, striking with a velocity OF
1900 feet, was the second shot. This also
struck near the upper edge. and was shat
tered, its point being welded into the
to the bottom of the plate, the other TO the
top, were made, neither of them through
the rivet holes. The third shot, a ten-inch
cast steel, with a velocity OF 1,500 feet,
broke the plate, lifting the upper part over
the oak backing and destroying that, the
shell being smashed also.
Naval men consider the tests proof OF
the superior quality of the Harvey. plate,
although this particular one was OF extra
quality. The fact that none of the seams
were through the Hvet holes showed that
the first two shots would have smashed a
nickel plate, say the experts.

The Indian service is expected TO cost ap-
