Food for Growing Stock.


Corn and wheat, SO largely. used as

there is but about one pound of. lime in

Insufficient for the purposes of the young

less the substances Of which it is COM

contrary. red clover: hay contains about
twenty-eight pounds of lime in 1000

exist in foods ill., the form of phospha ties,

Best Time for Digging Wells.

Winter is the best time for digging
wells. They can be as easily dug now as
at another season, and there is more
time for such work at this season than
when the ground can be stirred, or there
are crops to be harvested. The ground
may be frozen, but that makes harder
digging for a foot or so only The man
IN the we'll will be warm enough, and
those at the surface can keep their bodies
stormy weather, and then it is not nec-
essary to carry on the work. A fire of
chunks or other rubbish will enable them
to keep their feet and hands comfortable.
The spring and early summer is poor
time in which to dig wells, as the ground
is so thoroughly saturated that one may
have plenty of water in a well and think
he has a good one, and find that it fails
just when it is most needed. It is a
mistake to dig a we'll less than seven
feet across in ordinary SOIL. NJ. sStahl

Absorptive Power of Soils.

The greater prevalence of drouths as
the country grows older is partly owing
to the fact that soils long cultivated do
not hold water as they do when full Of
vegeta BILE matter. This is especially true
where the soil is heavy and has at some
time been worked while wet. 1t often
requires years of cultivation with winter
freezing and thawing to fully break up
the clods made by blowing when the
ground is saturated with water The
plow presses particles of clay soil togeth-
are narrowed while wet, the clay sticks
to the harrow and but little good is done.
If the soil is undrained these clods re-
main for years, as the saturated soil
freezes solid at the surface and thus pre-
vents the deep freezing needed for pull
verization: Fall blowing is beneficial for
land in this condition. =

Rye as q Pasture.

We never could see any advantage from
sowing any kind of grain to furnish
pasture. The soil must be plowed, to
make a seed bed for the grain, and it
can trample over it without poaching
the surface when wet. Even if fed Off
while dry the grain furnishes compar-
atively little feed, and that not of very
good quality Rye as pasture will be
eaten by stock only for it's succulence.
1t is not as nutritious as June grass or as
clover when the latter is in blossom.
The trampling of all pasture, even on
a sod, destroys quite as much as what the
stock eats. Where any kind of grain is
fed off the damage greatly exceeds the
value of what is eaten, especially if stock
are allowed to trample over the ground
while the heritage is wet.-American Cul-

DECISION AGAINST DENNIS RYAN.
The st. Paul Man Loses Valuable Mining
Property

DENVER, May 24-In the suit over
the Bassick mine at Quiruride, near
Silver Cliff, Judge Riner has found for
the plaintiff, James Staples, and held
shat the defendant, Dennis Ryan Of
st. Paul, now in possession, was not en-
titled TO hold the property. The mine
formerly b34ongad to the Bassick nj Il
ing company. The last year it was in
operation it produced 100000. The
stockholders became involved in row
among themselves, and the result was
that i'll 1887 the property was sold I'M
der executions. The plaintiff i'll this
suit. James Staples, claims the property
under one Judgment, and the defend
ant, Ryan, now in possession, under
another. Judge Riner's decision places
the title i'll Staples. The mine is now
under !, 200 feet of water, and it is esti-
mated that 1t will cost to put the prop
erty in operation between 500, 900 and
$4,000.
The decision leaves the property still
IN the hands of Mr. Ryan upon his
fling bond with the court, which will
be done as soon as possible. The case

NORTHWESTERN MILLING.

Minneapolis mills made 2O8, 900 bar
rels OF -four last week, against 213, 1000
the week before, 191, 800 in 1894, and
IA, $50 in 1898. About 1000 barrels
more daily capacity going this week
all using water. Heavy advances in
wheat have kept millers busy marking
up flour prices. The market, as a re-
suit, has been very much unsettled,
with millers hesitating about trying to
do much. Some parties, however, sold
quite freely to the domestic trade,
buyers following the advance, but
managing to keep considerably behind
wheat.
