FEEDING "UP TO CAPACITY" HAS
MANY DANGERS.
MANY cows ARR SACRIFICED EVERY
YEAR TO GET THE BIG 100 AND
500 FOUND RECORDS.

We would advise one 20 "go Slow" SO
10 speak, In feeding cows TO find their
full capacity. A. y. Hyatt tells in the
Breeders Gazette the experience OF a
very bright young man of his scQuaint-
ance.
He had been reading Of the great
Pauline Paul aud he believed the story,
but he believed too that no Holstein
Friesian ever lived that would beat the
best Jerseys.
His father was absent, the best Jersey
of his fifty was fresh, the weather was
lovely. He would give his father and
the whole civilized world surprise and
become noted. He looked over the feed
tables, spent few days among the best
dsirymen with notebook and pencil, and
was ready sure enough. Twenty
pounds OF grain and two and oue-half
pounds OF butter day. Thirty pounds
Of grain and three pounds aud two
ounces of butter. Thirty-ive pounds OF
grain and three and three-Quarter pounds
of butter on May 70, and the morning of
MAY 2lst dead cow,
A local COW doctor examined her and
wondered bow or why a COW so well fed
should die. He would try again. The
second COW was making better gains
than the first one. Twenty pounds of
grain (he was giving more oatmeal and
some potatoes) made two and seven-six-
teenths pounds Of butter, when his
father came home and stopped the ex-
pertinent. he never became convinced
until after the report from the Colum-
bian Exposition that he killed the COW
BY oyerfeeding.
Mr.. HYATT SAYS he has fed \ great
many cows, but never fed one up To her
capacity. lie adds: have fed ten
pounds of oatmeal, three pounds corn
and-eoh meal, one and one-half pounds
OF oil meal aud - pounds Of roots, |
could have fed considerably more, |
have no doubt, and got more milk, but
will not overfeed. Hundreds of cows
are killed or ruined BY Oyerteeding.
have often wondered when have
read OF the 900 to 500 pounds Of butter
dAiries, how many cows were sacrificed
In year-Often so many that great
deal less butter and feed would have
given more profit. \ large majority Of

they show any signs OF failing. have

ity will give over 5000 pounds OF milk

Mr.. y.u, Did Dance with Her.

The story often told that the late
Hon. Richard Vaux had danced with
Queen Victoria has been denied quite
frequently since his death, but as a
matter of fact he did dance with the
queen. He was not her partner, it is
true, but danced in what was known as
the queens cotillon at the ball given
in her honor in 1887. when he was Sec
retary of the United States legation.
Mr. Vaux was selected by the queen her
self as one of the seven persons to join
with her in the dance, very great
honor In the course Of the evolutions
in the cotillon he danced with the
queen. This statement was made by
Mr.. vaux 70 well known Pennsylva-
nian who served with him in the Fifty
first congress. Philadelphia Record.

Doubtless the grinding of grain Is a
saving by the better digestion of it, ana
nv experience for more than 80 years
in feeding all kinds of farm animals, mas
been that by cutting and wetting the
fodder and mixing with the ground
grain, made as fine as possible, the food
is more completely digested; that the
animals are kept in better condition on
the smaller quantity of food; and that
the Weld Of milk is better; and these
results | feel sure must be by the more
complete digestion of the food thus pre-
pared.

Our friend Munson, of the water
works, was happy yesterday, He
had just read a decision of the Su
preme court Of Texas, wherein the
city of Austin had contracted with
a water works company for a GER
tain number Of hydrants, 167 in all,
the city to pay 800 each for 100
and the water company to furnish
twenty-five free, and all over this
number were to be charged for at
the rate of $50 each, the contract
to run for thirty years, The city
found out that it was being robbed
by extortionate prices and annulled
the contract through the council,
The water works company kept up
It's services and sued the CITY, The
court held that the water works
company was justly entitled to re-
cover for the 30 years on the con-
tract, or so long as they furnished
the water according to the require.
nents of the contract, The Court
said that the city could give any
number Of companies franchises to
lay pipe and furnish wateror could,
itself, as an enterprise, build and op.
crate its own water works, but
so long as "this water works, with
