SOLD ABOVE PAR.
A NEW YORK FIRM BUYS THE CITY
BONDS.

The Issue Is for $4,000 and viii Be
Expended for Electric Lights. Sale
Made by Alderman DAVIS.
There is no longer doubt that electric
lights will soon illuminate Dawson.
The council has sold $4,000 of the
$50, 900 worth of bonds authorized by the
voters of the city, and that amount will
be expended for electric lights.
The sale was made in New York last
week by Alderman w. H. Davis, and is a
very satisfactory one. The bonds were
bought by Sprain, Dickinson L Co. at
10000 net, making the 10000 issue bring
&c. so 90. This is the best sale of local
bonds that has yet been made, the court
house bonds selling for par and the jail
bonds for 90. 1t demonstrates, too, that
Dawson's credit ranks high. The bonds
bear per cent interest.
A special meeting of the council was
held Monday night and it was decided to
to take steps at once to print and deliv-
er the bonds. When that is done the
work of putting in the electric light
plant will be begun. Aldermen Rainey,
Dean and Melton were appointed COM
mittee to select site for the plant.
1t is hoped to have everything in read
mess for turning on lights by the first
of next January.

In many sections of the country feed

EXCELLENT STOCK FEED.

An Official Bulletin Treating of Sweet
Potatoes and Their Uses.
The department of agriculture has
issued bulletin treating of sweet po-
tatoes and their uses. Only in locali-
ties favored with transportation facili-
ties and good markets is the sweet POI
tato sale crop. But as a food for
stock the department thinks it should
be extensively grown in regions adapt
ed to it. Vhe roots have been success
fully fed to hogs, cattle and horses
For cattle and horses it is better 20
slice the roots. OF all classes of stock
hogs can be used to consume sweet
potatoes to the best advantage, since
they do their own digging.
Sweet potato vines are usually left
to decay in the field where they are
grown. However, they may be used as
food for cattle. An analysis of very
succulent sweet potato vines, grown in
Texas, showed them to be practically
identical in chemical composition with
succulent COW pea vines, of which the
feeding value is well established.
lucS Vi uNt varieties we're dHdlNZeu
at the Georgia station and showed con-
siderable differences in composition.
1t is claimed that the vines of the So
called vineiess variety, which stand up
well, can be cut with a moving ma
chine, but to permit of this it will be
necessary to cultivate nearly level.
The vines are better suited for feeding
green than for curing into hay. In
the silo they are said to become Shiny.
A writer says he weighed heavy crop
of green vines, and found that the
weight was five and one-siXth tons per
acre. AT the Texas Experiment sta
ton the yield of green vines was much
greater.
The sweet potato is a valuable crop.
They are worth raising for stock feed
alone, but sometimes it happens that
there is good local demand at very
remunerative prices. The man who
has large yield when the general crop
is poor generally gets good pay for his
efforts. If prices are unsatisfactory it
would pay to try the experiment of
feeding to stock.

DEEP MILKING EWES.
Suggestions as to the Raising of IA Health,

Suggestions as to the Raising of IA Healthy
Flock OF Sh,ep.
Now and then you will see among the
enumerated good qualities of particu-
lar breed of sheep. that the ewes are
deep mixers and good mothers. In
looking over the flock of breeding ewes
with lamb at foot, the most casual OBJ
server must have noticed that some
lambs showed the effects of much better
care than others; that certain ewes
Ns'h twin lambs were doing better 10y
them than many of their companions
who had but u single lamb. The ewes
may have been of the same age. and the
lambs may have been dropped about the
same date, and the feed and all other
conditions may have been the same.
Notwithstanding the above results
What, then, is the cause of this differ
: ence in the lambs? Much, very much
of it is due to the fact that the one eve
is the better mixer and as the yielding
of milk is distinctive maternal quail
ity, it must necessarily follow that she
is better mother. While it is good
thing and a correct practice to teach
the lambs to eat grain at the earliest
possible moment, the great first start
and impetus 10 growth must come from
that most natural of all foods-milk,
and for this purpose that of the mother
il superior to all others.
These things being true, says Wool
Markets ahd Sheep, it would seem the
most natural thing to do to improve the
milking qualities of the breeding ewes.
I here are several ways in which this
might be done, but for the man who is
n possession of the average flock of
sueep there seems at present no better
means at hand than careful selection
ind development by the feeding of
foods especially adapted TO the produc-
ton of milk. We know that many men
will feel disposed to decry such teach
ing, and SO do many so-caIled dairymen.
Tut they are not the ones who are max
ing money out of the business of keep
ing cows. Some men never pay any at
sention TO the ewes udder even in wean-
ing time, with the result that much suf-
The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1895-11-29

fering, and not unfrequently serious
loss, follows.
We wish to impress upon the minds OF
our readers that this is not an idle
theory, and that it rs perfectly plausi-
BILE to increase the milking qualities OF
your ewes as those of your cows, and
that while the profits may not be Sc
great they are still worthy of grave con
sideration. If you should have num-
Der of ewes in the flock that yearly pro
duce and rear extra lambs note if they
are not superior mixers, and in such
an event save for the breeding flock the
female lambs from all such mothers,
and we prophesy hat in the end the re-
suits OF such selections will greatly sur
prise you.

A writer in Farmers Advocate MANI
has this to say as to the best quality foi
feeding steers: lit appears to us it
would be profitable to farmers having
damaged wheat to put up as man,
steers as could be properly handled am!
feed them for next springs market.
And we might just add word here:
Great care should be taken in selecting
steers to feed; don't select old oxen
or big, rawboned, slab-sided three-year-
Odds, with the hope OF having something
big. OF course such stock would he
a big granary for damaged wheat, but
it is not the animal that can put most
wheat out of sight that will return
most profit. Select nice, smooth, uni
form o-year-olds, with good backs
and quarters, whose appearance shows
they have some breeding in them. Such
steers will make far better use of the
food given them and will return more
profit, even if they cost more money at
first"
