no reason why interest should not now be

IINGEED MEAL.

The linseed meal used in feeding is
the ground press cake remaining after
the extraction of the oil from the flax.
seed. BY the old process the oil was
not so thoroughly removed as by the
new, hence there is considerable diff
ference i'll the composition Of the meal
under the different processes. The
new process meal does not contain
hall the amount of fat (oiD found in
the old, but it has rather more pro-
TEN. Experiments have demonstrated
that the new process contains more
fertlliZing ingredients than the old
process, and the net cost is therefore
less. But, on the other hand. the
yield of milk and ihe percentage of
lat IS higher on the old-process meal
Oil cake, MS the old-process meal is
termed, has been very popular in Eng
land for over century. 1t is largely
imported from America, always, how
ever, in its original form of cakes rs
1t issues from the hydraulic presses
which extract the oil. The manure
resulting from its use is so exceeding
ly rich that in England an out going
tenant always claims and receives
compensation therefor. Oil meal may
be given to cows up to two or three
pounds per head daily. 1t has ten
dency to make the butter soft, while
cotton-see meal will harden it, The
latter IS a richer and more concentrat.
cd feed than the linseed meal. II is
not, however, so highly esteemed, nor
IS the flavor Of the butter produced
equally good. The wisest way is to
mix the different foods so rs to secure
the best flavor, grain and hardness in
the butter. 1t Is also well TO remem-
Der that the latter depends to some
extent upon the making. New York

Never buy from infected or suspic-

Never purchase COW with cough

Of several stories in height, some OF
the central studdings are similarly
connected in pairs by means of Stats,
the ventilating hues thus formed each
communicating with an opening in the
floor, thus permitting free circula-
ton of air throughout the interior of
the largest storage space. When the
bin is to be used for shelled corn, oats,
wheat, etc, the bottoms of tho venti-
lators are closed by short pieces of
boards, the grain then filling the ven
tilators, or, if desired, wire gauze may
be fastened over the stats of tue venti-
lators, whose bottoms may then tie

A Hens Brood of Quail.

While Mr.. j. II. Stuart, a prosperous
farmer living near Knoxville. Tenn.
was moving his grass this summer. the
machine cut off the head of a hen quail.
which was setting on her nest. A
broken egg showed that the eggs would
have been Matched in n few days. A
little daughter of Mr.. Stuart's took the
eggs and carefully put them under n
hen, whose eggs were to hatch in n
day or two Fourteen of the quail eggs
Matched and sixteen of the hens. For
n week or two the young quail went
under the hen Mt night, as the chick
ems did; after that they roasted I'm one
corner of the coop by themselves.
The little girl fed and looked after
them, and they seemed to have no fear
of her, but would come and lump I'm
her hand. The moment anyone else
came about they would run and hide.
Their favorite hiding place was under
the chickens, ana sometimes two or
three would try to get under one chick
en-, and in their efforts to hide would
completely upset it. After they could
fly fairly well they took up their abode
in the garden. but would always come
to the little girls call of Chick. chick.
chick" and if at a distance would fly
and alght at her feet When they were
quite small an old cock quail came for
several days ana tried to toll them
away, but they would not go with him.
They are now full grown, and all are
living but one, which killed itself
against a wire gate only Il few days
ago.-FOrest and Stream.
