wheat is a valuable hog feed. Corn he
has fonnd to take nearly five pounds for
a pound of pork, and it would be pru-
dent to allow three and a half to four
pounds of wheat for the pound Of pork.
At present prices there is good profit in
turning wheat into pork. In fact, he
says that, rather than sell the grain at
present prices, he would use it for build
up good bone and muscle with all the
farm animals from horses to hogs. With
barley Prot. Henry has had experience.
In one trial AL pounds Of barley made
100 pounds of pork, as did 1876 pounds Of
corn. In a second trial sweet skim milk
considerably reduced the amount of bar
ley or corn required for the 100 pounds
of pork-four pounds Of the milk about
equaling a pound of the grain. In these
experiments barley lacked but 8 per
cent. of equaling corn for fattening. It
is claimed to make the best meat.

Some Feeding Experiments.

The question of the advisability Of
feeding wheat to pigs for purposes of
%fattening, instead of selling at the pres
ent price, which has been discussed in
the columns of the TRIBUNE and other
state papers, render interesting some
experiments on the subject. In reply to
an inquiry from North Dakota, Prof.
Henry, in the Breeders Gazette, con-
siders the pork making value Of wheat,
barley and shorts. The professor has
not himself experimented::with wheat, but
quotes the a s of the Ohio farmer who
fed fifty bushels of wheat and got Il gain
of 1000 pounds of pork, live weight, or
one pound Of pork to two and one-half
pounds of wheat. In this case the wheat
was soaked twelve hours and fed to
shoats averaging $50 pounds, after they
had u upon a clover field all summer.
This preparation the professor regards
as the best possible for enabling pigs to
take on flesh rapidly. In another case
the2average gain with wheat and a lit
tie house slop was one pound Of pork to
three pounds wheat. But Prof. Henry
does not regard these as sample cases.
He knows Of no carefully conducted ex-
periments where such gains have been
| made, but he does not question that

Europe for his health. The letter re-
ceived by Mr.. Chambers was written
from the steamer "Fuerst Bismarck" off
the coast of Africa, February 10th. The
bishop reports a pleasant voyage and an
interesting trip along the coast Of the
Mediterranean. His health is better,
and he intends to make a journey to
Constantinople, Smyrna, Asia Minor, the
Holy Land, and other interesting places.
The bishop enclosed a remittance to pay
for the new chairs al the Indian mission

The contest is still on for the position Of

not wish to be quoted as guessing who

Kinter and Engle would both receive

Convict Labor.

The board of capital commissioners
and penitentiary trustees had conference
This moaning with regard to arranging
for the employment of the convicts on
the capitol building when the work be-
gins. There was some little disagree
ment last year between the two bodies as
to the management Of convicts while en-
ployed in this work, and this year it is
wished by both sides that all arrange.
ments be definitely understood. The
matter was not finally decided this morn
ing, but will be considered at the next
meeting of the board.
The capitol commissioners have decid-
ed to advertise for bids for the compile
ton of the capitol, and will call for bids
upon the entire contract, and also the sev-
eral divisions Of the work separately.
When these shall be received the COM
missioners will finally decide, as to
whether they will supervise the work
themselves, as wa done last year, or let
it out by contract.
