OHIO AGRICULTURAL EX =
PERTINENT STATION.
Experiments In Cattle Feeding.
[Newspap r Bulletin No. 1852 ]

[Newspap.r Bulletin No. 1852
Bulletin so Of the Ohio Experiment
Station gives the result of the expert
ments in feeding steers, made during
the late winter and spring months ot
1894 and 1895, in which Al three.
year old cattle were fed a period o1
FIVE months, being finally finished on
grass and sold in the Pittsburg
market.
These cattle were grade steers o1
mixed breeding, and would rank as
quite ordinary feeding cattle. The
average increase during five months
was little less than two pounds per
day and the cost of this increase was
about eight cents per pound, but this
cost would have been considerably
more than covered by an advance in
price of one cent per pound on the
original line weight, an advance con-
siderably smaller than the average to
be expected from the statistics of past
markets.
The bulletin contains chapter on
the chemistry of cattle feeding, with
tables and formulae for the calcula'
tion of rations, aud discussion of the
value of the manure obtained in feed
ing with tables showing the relative
manurial and feeding value of the
feeding stuffs in ordinary use.
These experiments indicated con-
siderable advantage in feeding gulten
meal, rather than linseed oil meal at
the prices for the two feeding stuffs
then prevailing; gulten meal giving,
apparently, as good results, pound for
pound, as old process oil meal, and
being considerably lower in price.
The finishing of beeves on grass,
when this fnishlng period did not ex-
tend beyond six weeks, was attended
with considerable loss, the cattle kept
in the barn and barnyard until the
10th or middle of June making bet
ter gain than those which were turn.

the grazing steers were still fed all

The First Lesson of an Arab Boy.

The very first lesson which an Arab
baby learns when he begins to talk is
to keep facts to himself. 1t does not
sound very friendly put in that way,
but it saves a deal Of trouble. Foreign
ers do not understand Arabs. They ask
them pointed questions and receive pc
culiar answers They oonstrue the an
ywers to please themselves, and come
away to tell the world that the Arabs
are nation Of liars. They are not a ma
tion Of liars. Perhaps If they should tell
the foreigners to mind their own affairs
and let them and theirs alone the for
eigners would understand them better. --.

CRADLE SONG.

The crickets In the corner sing.
Der farm and field the shadows creep,
Their homeward way the swallows wing
The sun is setting in the deep,
The squirrels seek their leafy hold,
The fox is in his hollow tree,
And, huddled in their silent fold,
The downy lambkins sleeping be,
The little bird within his nest
Hath hid his little head in rest
And soon, oh, soon
The dreamy moon
Will sail along the fieecy west.
The day is done,
The night begun;
To sleep, my drowsy little one.
But when at break Of day we see
The spider weaving at his loom,
The soaring lark above the lea,
/ The bee amid the clover bloom,
When frisking baby squirrels wake
And sip the leaves Of morning dew,
When baby foxes from the brake
Do prowl the thorny hedges through,
When on the meadow sweet with hay
The white and curly lambkins play,
And, sweet and cool,
Ger plain and pool.
Bloweth the breeze of coming day,
Thou, too, shalt rise
To sunny skies,
And open wide thy baby eyes.

Home Thrust.

It is said that the saying, "Much may
be done with a Scotchman if he be
caught young" which has passed into q
historical wittioism, was first spoken by
DR.. johnson in reference to Lord Mans
field. An amusing little incident is said
to have given rise to the remark.
Lord Mansfield, having received his
education entirely in England, always
considered himself an Englishman, but
the fact that he was born in Scotland
was once referred to with great effect.
General Sabine, governor Of Gibraltar
at the time, having failed in his at
tempts to extort money from Jew,
sent him back by force to Tetuan, in
Marocco, from whence he had come to
Gibraltar. The Jew afterward went to
England and sued the governor for
damages.
Lord Mansfield, who was then known
as Mr.. Murray, was counsel for the gov
ernor. In the course of his defense be-
fore the jury he said:
"True, the Jew was banished. But
where? Why, to the place Of his ma
tivity! Where is the cruelty, where the
hardship, where the injustice Of Danish
ing man to his own country?"
Mr.. NOVEL;, counsel for the Jew, re-
torted: "Since my learned friend thinks
SO lightly Of the matter, I ask him to
suppose the case his own. Would he like
to be banished to his native land?"
The court rang with peals Of laugh
ter, in which Murray himself joined
with right good will. Youths Com.
