rows of sweet corn in the garden for the
table use that little or no experiment has
been made with them to utilize the crop
for general feeding purposes. We all
know that good sweet corn is more ten
der and juicy than the field corn, and
when it is used for fattening purposes
ii gives fine results. By planting several
acres with sweet corn the farmer has
enough for The table Use and an excellent
fodder for the animals
When the grass begins to fail in late
summer and fall the cows cannot ask for
better food than the stalks of sweet corn
cut when green and juicy. 1t keepts up
the flow of milk and enriches 1t with
fine flavor that cannot be detected from
the June made milk and butter. The
COWS will not find all of the milk pro-
ducing material that they can eat in the
grass field. at this season. of the year, and
a wonderful difference will be made with
them if they are fed sweet corn stalks
morning and evening.
But the sweet corn ears have a great
feeding value. When several acres are
planted with 1t enough ears will be pro-
duced to send to the market and to sup
ply the home table and after this a great
deal will be left. In the fall the new ears,
just past the roasting stage, will make
excellent food for the fattening shoats
land for the young pigs. In fact, this
sweet corn is the best substitute for milk
that can be provided. II raised properly,
a great many bushels can be produced on
an acre, and dozen pigs could be fed on
it through the late summer and fall.
The hens are also greedily fond of
sweet corn, and they thrive and fatten off
the ears greatly. 1t pays for the poultry
man to have field of sweet corn to fat
ten his fowls and broilers for market.
The milky juiciness of the ears adds a
flavor and tenderness to the flesh of the
birds that is very marked, 1t can also be
fed to the young chickens who do not
need fattening yet, for it is not so heat
ing to the system as the field corn. The
stalks, meanwhile, can be fed to the
horses, cows and hogs They are relished
in the summer and fall as no other fod-
der, and generally it keeps them supplied
until the dry feed of winter is brought
out for feeding.

jamin B. Richards ct al.
On the trial of an issue as to whether the
defendants were the owners of certain money
loaned by them and the notes taken there
for payable to certain banks, the defendant
offered in evidence certain conversations and
correspondence between them and the banks
tending to show that the money and notes
were the property Of such banks, and that
the defendants in making the loan acted
simply loan brokers for the banks.
Held, that such evidence was competent
and relevant and its exclusion was error.
