Important Ordinances to Be sent 10 Noun-
oil-A Big Lot of Bills From the Health
Department.
At last evenings session Of the Coun-
ciI Committee on Ordinances, resolu-
ton was adopted recommending the
adontion of a new taxation ordinance
levving a special license tax on all
wheeled vehicles used within the city,
on all breweries within the city, and a
tax on each and every telegraph and tel
enbone pole. The proposed ordinance
is also to contain provision that when
ever a telegraph or telephone pole IS cuF
down the stump must be dug up and re
moved and the hole filled up and paved
n the satisfaction of the Board OF Pub
lie Works.
An ordinance was reported requiring
the B. & o. to erect safety gate and
maintain a watchman at Sixteenth and
McColloch streets.
The amended appropriation ordinance
increasing the appropriations to the
Committees on Health, Police, Gene
teries. etc. as detailed in the Register
a few DAYS ago, was also perfected, and
will come before Council this evening
The Health Committee had an i'm
mense stack Of bills before it last even
ing. reDresenting the accumulatons OF
the past four or five weeks. and it took
about an hour and a half to go through
them. Allowances were made for bed
ding and other property destroyed by
order of the Health Officer, and for bills
for guarding. cleaning infected prem
ises. nursing. hauling, drugs, etc, TO tha
total of S1.S7461. Two or three bills
were laid over and one was disallowed.
A close inspection of some OF the drug
bills showed pretty healthy charges for
some articles, and some liberal allow
ances were made for property destroyed.
The Committee on Fire Department
met and listened to a report from the
City Solicitor as to the tile TO the
ground at present occupied by the At
lantic engine house building, at Seven
teenth and Eoff streets. In the opinion
Of the City Solicitor the c.ty's title was
such as to allow of the permanent occu-
pancy of the ground by a new building
and It is likely that the proposed new
house will now be built there.
Mr.. Irwin was authorized TO have the
tower Of the Niagara engine house
painted
A number Of bills were recommended
for payment, including the charge for
painting the roofs Of the various engine
and hose houses.

TRAINING TOMATOES.
How to Support the Vines to Keep Their
or the Ground.

How to Support the Vines to Keep Them
on the Ground.
A correspondent asks about the best
way to train tomatoes. We presume
our friend wants to know how best to
support tom to keep them off the
ground, and prevent them from rot
ting, as they are apt to do when
allowed to fall down and grow unre-
stricted.
There are several plans that are
good, says the Farm. One Is to drive
four stakes around the plant about
two feet apart and fasten crossties to
them, making square support and
training the vines to grow up over
these and droop down the outside.
This does very we'll If the vines are to
be allowed to grow as rankly as they
will, and where the crop is of any size
Is about the best way we know OF. For
the number of plants that are grown
in an ordinary garden we prefer to tie
each vine to single stake three feet
high. and keep it pretty well pruned.
We allow branch to start out and
grow until blossoms appear on 1t and
pinch it off just above the blossoms.
All the numerous branches that spring
out along the sides are looked after

feet long, are attached two circular
platforms 3 feet in diameter; these
platforms are 90 inches apart. On the
lower one the cans containing milk
and cream are placed. on the upper
one crooks of butter or other articles
that one desires to keep cool.
The cans are made of heav-
lest tin 81 inches in diameter
and 20 In height TO them are secured
handles inches from the top; on these
handles set the can covers, WHICH are
9 inches in diameter at the closed end,
daring to 10 inches at the other end.
These covers are inches deep, and
when in proper place on the cans there
Is considerable air space over and
around the top of the cans, allowing
the gas and odors to escape, but pre-
venting the water from entering when
all are submerged in the well. Milk

evening the cage is raised, new milk is

SLOP FOR DAIRY COWS.
Another Popular Fallacy Disproved by
Official Experiments.

Another Popular Fallacy Disproved by
Official Experiments.
There is general belief that slop-
ping cows greatly increases their flow
of milk, and that the resulting yield Is
correspondingly poor in butter fats;
and to prove or disprove this, the ex-
pertinent station at Guelph, Ont, has
for the past two years been expert.
menting along this line, and to their
surprise there is practically nothing in
the belief. The cows, when fed the
grain in form of slop would, if fed once
day, give slightly lower, but not uni.
form, percentage of fat, about o. of
per cent; but in every instance where
slop was fed twice day there was
marked falling off in milk yield.
These tests were conducted in periods
of thirty days each, SO as to get the
full effect of the feed, and in the gen.
eral averages the dry-grain fed cows
came out ahead.
AS to the variation of fat content of
the milk, the sum total of all the aver
ages showed that there was no more
loss in the end than the variations
found in the fat content of cows fed
dry foods, and the sum total of two
years experiments is against the idea
that slop food increases the milk yield.
If anything is to be deduced from the
tests it is that cows gave less milk II
the stopping was very marked, and the
percentages of fat yielded were actual
ly inconsequential so far as change was
concerned in either case.
The conclusions are that the best
''slop" that can be fed COW is good
ration of corn, silage, roots or uncured
grain folders, and the drink that COW
has is best in the form of good water,
