knew that members Of parliament

extracted the most pithy passages

Then his real labor began. Cheese

him a bore. And the house, of course,
would stand anything; hypocrisy, IL

benches, use being second nature in
the house of commons, as elsewhere.
He must learn his speech by heart,
and have the manuscript by him,

He mustn't read his speech, that being

A Nav CattlA Eond.

Sunflower cake has been found, es-
pecially In Russia, one of the best
auxiliary cattle foods As early as the
year 1866, about 100000 centners of
sunhower oil (oil Of the seeds Of
Heliauthus annuus) were manufac-
tured in Russia, and its amount has
increased year by year, it being es.
teemed as a very palatable alimentary
oil. The oil was formerly obtained
by hydraulic means; the residual cake
is harder than any other variety Of
oil cake, and for this reason apparent
ly, it has not found a wider applica-
ton. Denmark and the northern coun-
tries import large quantities annually,
az do also the eastern provinces of
Germany, and the problem of its disin-
tegration has been successfully solved
by several manufacturers there. 1t Is
still unknown in southern and west-
ern Germany; now, however, that it is
put on the market in the form of meal
it will doubtless soon find general ap-
plication, suited as 1t is, both on ac-
count Of its composition and pleasant
taste, for fattening cattle. The per-
centage of protein varies between
about thirty to forty-four per cent,
the fat between about nine to eight
cen per cent. 1t is possible to prepare
two qualities, one rich in protein and
poor in fat, and the other rich in fat
and poor in protein. When, for exam
pie, the somewhat Underground meal
is sifted, employing mesh Of 1 NM,
that which passes through is much
richer in protein and poorer in fat than
the original, while the reverse is true
of that which remains in the sieve

Experiments made to ascertain the

ering time will pay about as we'll as
fifty cents the next June. In 1898
farmers club in Pennsylvania adopted
a resolution asking the members of the
club to make test and find out by ac.
tual weight how much corn would
shrink or lose in weight from husking
time until the next June l. In accord.

farmers reported the shrinkage from
November to February as

from February / to June l as 72s

above test each farmer took double
bushel of corn ears and kept them
separate, weighing the same corn on
the first of each month from November

HERE AND THERE.

Since 1870 not less than nine cold
waves have visited Florida; each as it
receded was followed by q steady in
crease in fruit production.
The talk of better cultivation and
diversification of crops is good. 1t is
but one of the many ways leading
from the slough Of despond into which
the one-crop farmer has fallen.
Florida, like other states and Sec
tions, has its advantages and disadvan-
tages. But few states can grow such
q diversity Of products, and in none is
the expense of good living less.
The causes for the present low
prices for farm products, and the best
means of restoring agricultural pros
perity, has been fruitful topic of dis
sussion, and is one that is still open.

A REVOLUTION.
Old Things Passing Away and . Nev
Regime At Hand.


A revolution is in progress and we
will see what very few years will
bring forth. The change wrought al
ready is wonderful to behold, but it has
been too gradual to astonish people.
These changes have taken place in
every business; in some the change has
been greater than others. Agriculture,
always conservative, has been rather
slow to r"catch on" but is waking up
and getting the dust out OF her eyes.
1t is said that no man amounts to much
until he meets adversely and overcomes
it. There is some truth it that. A man
never knows what he can do until he
does Calanities are often real bless.
ing, no matter how they. may appear
when present. A few years ago our
farmers declared that they could not
produce cotton and sell it for less than
ten cents pound without bankruptcy.
They have sold it for less than half
that price, and paid their old debts and
had money left. They said that ruin
awaited them if they did not continue
TO raise cotton. Many have abandoned
cotton, wholly or partially. and pros
pered as they never did before. Some
of them cut down orchards, saying that
the fruit made their people sick. But
the consumption of fruit has increased
500 per cent, and health and longevity
has correspondingly increased. They
said improved stock could not be
made profitable in Texas. But
many prosperous farmers are maxi
ing more money of fine stock than
they ever did of cotton, even
when the price was three times higher
than now. Then they pied all the
land they could, and trusted to Provi-
dence for fair weather and long sea-
son, in which to get over it with the

they labored long between the pillow

plow mule to town, and brought their

COTTON SEED FOR PIGS.

Tobacco CroD of 1898.

Mr.. Cazeau Mcleod, secretary OF the
Richmond Tobacco Exchange, has tho fol-
lowing to say in regard to the tobacco crop
of1S95:
"Since the last government report was re-
ceived we have information that the crop Of
bright leaf in North Carolina from which
wrappers are obtained. has been badly
damaged by parasites. Virginia wrappers,
it would appear. will also be short.
"There will doubtless be a big scramble
for wrappers and filters this year and those
who have the stock for sale will come in for
good profits.
''The growing crop is now at the stage
when it is hard to Judge how it is going to
pan out. Tobacco men are prone to regard
with suspicion all reports Of the condition
of the leaf until it is harvested. In the spring
dire news Of the crop having been burned out
of.existence by the sun IS invariably heard.
In the fall comes the report that frosts have
weakened destruction on all the big planta-
.tions, while the Intervening season is filed
in with news Of the complete devastation Of
the crop by the tobacco bug.
"Again, the tobacco bug and kindred in
sects after making savage attack on the
growing leaf suddenly abandon it and fly
to the trees, contenting their appetites with
the foliage. No tobacco man would have
any confidence in the years crop that was
not thusly handled by common report"
