Feeding Oats.


For some years past we have advised
the feeding Of oats very sparingly eX-
cept for horses and growing pure-bred
stock. We were led to this course
not because of any lack of apprecia-
tiOn of the value of oats, but because,
prices considered, it was usually not
an economical feed. Market condi-
tions have changed this year, however,
and oats have fallen very low in price.
This fact is calling attention To the
ACCESSIBILITY of making larger use of
oats as feed stuff on the farm than
has been the case for several years
past, and the Purdue Experiment
Station, of Indiana, has thought it
worth while to issue newspaper
bulletin on the subject. 1t quotes
the nutritive elements Of oats as
compared with corn, showing, the
excess the former has over the latter
in flesh and muscle-fOrming food, and
adds that on the basis of quotations
at Lafayette. Indiana, hundred
pounds of oats would fetch fifty cents
and a hundred pounds of corn forty
eight cents, and adds:
In view of these extremely low
prices, the writer believes feeders
will do well to feed oats, rather than
sell them and buy bran, which is now
seventy cents per hundred. No other
grain is superior, if equal to oats as Il
food for working horses. For growing
cattle or sheep or milk cows it is
most desirable, and should be much
more generally fed than it is. Instead
of feeding corn as the only grain, a
decided improvement would be a
mixture of two parts ground corn and
one part oats. While oats are less
referred to than any other common
grains, in recommending feeding
rations, it is not because of inferior
value, but rather from the cost of
this food. At the present time,
however, the low price will warrant
its more extensive use. In list Of
100 rations used by prominent dairy
cattle feeders in the United States
and Canada, published by the Wiscon-
sin experiment station, oats are fed
thirty-fve times. or nine Canadian
feeders, eight added ground oats to
, the rations.
There is no doubt Of the high value
of oats as a feed stuff for growing
animals, and also as a feed for milk
production. Prices have heretofore
been such relatively as to make it
doubtful economy in most localities
to feed oats except in the case Of pure
bred livestock where economy in
feed was not so much a matter of
importance. and ia the case or horses
for which oats are especially fitted.
In view Of the changed circumstances,
however. il will be wise for farmers
who have oats to consider whether at
present rates, it is not about as
economical feed as any in sight,
especially for all growing stock and
for milk produetion.-The Wisconsin
Farmer.

Prof. Henry says: MANY farmers
are much disappointed and discourage
ed because their large crop of potatoes
brings small returns. Taking a
series of years together there is no
more profitable crop for Wisconsin.
Ia wheat growing other countries
can produce grain cheaper than we
can; in potato growing no country
can excel us, quantity, quality and
cheapness of production considered.
All surplus is disposed of before the
next crop is harvested. Our farmers
need encouragement in this industry
at this time"

IabOP's Triumphs,

The wonders of the world are all
triumphs of labor, sometimes of com
PEELED and unpaid toilers, but always
it is labor that has created them
The seven wonders of the ancient
world the Pyramids: the tomb OF
Mausoleus; the temple Of Diana at
Ephesus; the hanging gardens OF
Babylon; the Colossus of Rhodes; the
ivory and gold statue of Jupiter; and
the Pharos Tor lighthouse of Egypt,
were all the work of forgotten work
men. Such are also the present nine
wonders of the world-the pyramids
of Egypt, the largest of which took
100000 men twenty years TO build; the
Tai Mahal, the marble tomb OF
Queen Moor Jehel at Agra, India,
cost $15, O00, 900; the temple of Baalbec
in which are stones 81 feet long, q
feet broad and Is feet thick; the
temple of Karnak, covering twice the
area of st. Peters at Rome, the great
wall of China, 1890 miles long, 20 feet
high and % feet thick; the Fife
Tower at Paris, SS4 feet high; the
Suez Canal, connecting the Mediter
ranean and Red Sea, costing $50, 900,
600; the railway bridge over the Forth
Scotland, with two spans of 100 feet
each, costing $4,000, 600; the leaning
tower of Pisa, which deviates 10 feet
from the perpendicular. Several o.
these, like the ancient wonders, are
of no practical benefit to mankind
The real wonders of the present
century, that have spread civilization
and comfort wherever they have
come, that have not been built by un
paid labor-the most splendid
triumphs of the woodland the great

pertinent Station, in speaking of the

dairy cows, says: "Cut the corn
when it is just beginning to dent and
while all the leaves above the ear and
some below even, are still green in
color. In a dry year the bottom
leaves will by this time be dead. but
that can not be helped. The period
when the plant is practically ripe can
be recognized by the farmer who will
note that the leaves have changed
from a deep growing green to a
slightly yellowish tinge. This marks
the period for cutting, and when it is
reached the corn should be shocked as
fast as possible. Build good sized
