correspondent that Nicaragua will
give the American Canal conces-
sionaires every facility. His inten
ton is to afford a fair chance 20
the Americans. and he hopes they
viii complete the canal, as it is
certain to be of service and profit
to Nicaragua.
He intends soon to make public
his plan fer reducing the expendi-
lures OF the Government. One
feature of it will be to reduce the
army, although that will be against
the wishes of the military men.
a plot is known to exist n Qua
temala, fomented by the British
colony at Belize, for creating diff
culties in Nicaragua and Honduras.
Advices received here say that
England is trying 10 arrange quiet

How to Feed straw prof,tably.

There are some farmers who keep
stock of such poor quality that they
cannot afford to feed it grain. Their
only way OF wintering stock is to pro.
vide coarse fodder, like straw and
cornstalks, of which enough will be
eaten to sustain life without much
chance of adding to growth or flesh.
There is no profit in this, for unless
there is some gain by increased
weight the maintenance ration will
cost more than the increased value of
animals in the spring. There seems
to be more reason in the objection of
those who have the best stock that
they cannot afford to feed IL much
straw. They surely cannot II corn be
the chief grain fed, for both corn and
straw are largely carbonaceous. Some
grain or other feed that contains
more heterogeneous nutrition will make
straw feeding more Irofitable. With
a large feeding Of bran or wheat
middlings considerable straw will be
eaten. So. too, 1t will when linseed
or c0tton-seed meal is fed. Sheep
that are fed beans and bean straw
will eat the straw of other grains in
considerable quantities to vary their
ration, which has not enough carbo-
hy0r0tes.

Cribbinr In the F1eld.

It saves good deal of labor in
husking corn tn throw the ears in a
box as they are husked. Some will
fall outside when fast husking is at
tempted, but it is easier to pick up
the scattering.than toleave all ON the
ground. There Is a further saving in
the fact that these boxes at night
may be piled one on another to the
height Of four. or five, or six tierS
and couple OF wide boards laid
Ilengthwise of the crib will protect
them from ruin or smoke. Those
who grow sweet corn for seed often
provide boxes to hold their entire

On disputed questions men are apt
to take views that are extreme. Amid
the din of the battle of controversy
there is danger that the truth will
be obscured for the sake of Momen.
tary victory. 1t is to be feared that
SO it has been with this question.
Some have contended that all cattle
need exercise, and daily IN winter.
Others have claimed that they do not
need any exercise, and yet others, in
Guiding the writer, have said that
the question is vet undecided, since
instances are on record wherein beef
breeding stocks and dairy cattle have
been kept tied in the stall the whole
of the winter for years in succession,
and without any apparent harm hav-
ing come to them in consequence.
On the other hand, it has been
affirmed. but apparently without sus-
tanning evidence, that since keeping
animals tied thus is unnatural, it
must inevitably lead to an undermin.
ing of the constitution and stamina
OF. the stock. In considering this
question we should bear In mind that
the improvement made In the various
breeds Of live stock during recent
centuries has been made possible by
subjecting them to artificial condi-
tions. and that the highest attain
ment in utility, for the time being
at least, has been attained when the
divergence from these conditions has
been eatest.-Exchange.
