Citizen" Critics the Action Taken Satur.
day Night.
To the Editor of the Register.
Sir:-I was greatly chagrined and
astonished, to-day, at reading in the
Sunday Register the systematic efforts
being made in the City Charter Commits
sion TO undo much of the good work
performed by the subcommittee and
| Mr.. Erskine. and cannot understand why
such men as Mr.. Hamilton, who has all
| along been supposed TO have we'll ma
! tured ideas regarding the proposed
| measures, should be so anxious to turn
tail and knock out some Of the best feat
ures of the paper as drafted. For in
! stance:
One of the recognized evils of our
present city government is the fact that
every two years the entire membership
of the Second Branch. where all import
ant legislation and particularly all IL
| nancial legislation, originates, is entire
~ changed, and twenty-eight new men,
without experience in city affairs, come
together to make laws. II was early
understood, in the present move for
new charter that there would be an eff
fort TO remedy this, and when It was an
nounced that there would be a single
Branch of Council only half Of which
| would be changed every two years, with
one member at large holding over for
two years and another for four, citizens
who know the present situation were
well satisfied. Now. it appears that the
Commission are Of the opinion that the
majority of every Council elected Will be
incOmpetents or rascais, and for the sake
of an opportunity 10 root" them out
easily. We are 10 not only have the evil
! Of the present charter perpetuated, but
actually have the conditions made
verse. Is this reform? If it is, II Is
pretty Wei disguised.
The Commission also bids fair to maxi,
another serious D,under. The sub-com-
mitjee made the Mayor the presiding Of
I ficer i'm Council. which was not wholly
bad but they made most Objectionable
/ move when they gave him a vote In
other words. they want the Mayor 20
have legislative as well as executive
powers. This approaches foolishnes.
! No man who makes a law or helps make
if. should ever be charged with It's en-
forcement. The two ;hings do not work
well together. And | am again aston
isbed that the gentlemen OF the sub
comm.t.e should have perpetrated any
! thing O, the sort But this Deihg 3d.
ven can Judge of the surprise with when
! citizens read in your paper OF yesterday
that not only was this anomaly en-
dorsed bv the full Commission, but il
reso.yed 20 add another member at large
to again make the number Of members
odd. Let the original plan alone. by all
meas. Elect three members at large
as at frs, proposed, TO serve Tor SIX
wears. elect half the ward memberaip

Mayor his righ, to vote. This Will be a

EEDT FOR INSPECTION.

Feeding Potatoes.

One of our experiment stations
says that for dairy stock it is doubt
full, when foods are as cheap as they
are at present, whether it would
pay to feed very large quantities of
potatoes, because dairy ration
necessarily requires more protein
than fattening ration.
Potatoes can not be fed to young
animals as safely as to more mature
ones. If fed in too large quantities
they have tendency to premature
ly fatten the animal and build up
a lighter framework With more
mature animals, when the fattening
period is largely a period of the
addition of fat to the body, the po-
tatoes can then be fed to advantage
and more economically. In the
feeding of large quantities, no more
should be fed than the animals can
comfortably dispose of in one day.
In one of the digestion trials, when
10 pounds of potatoes per day were
offered, the pig refused about half
of them; when only nine pounds
were offered there were none left
over. Rolling the potatoes in the
grain was found to be another way
of encouraging large amount to
be eaten.
1t is impossible to state, at the
present time, the actual money val
ne of potatoes in the production OF
pork and beef. When fed in proper
combinations potatoes will without
doubt yield larger return than
their present market price.

steam it should be boiled. The
meat might be sailed the same as
beef, but it would have to be fresh
ened before being used, and it is a
question whether it would then be
a safe food for hens. 1t is a good
food for egg production. One OF
the most popular brands Of poultry
meat on the market is made from
carefully prepared and well cooked

Horse Meat as Hen Food.

Hundreds of barrels of cooked
horse meat are sold every Winter
to poultry raisers. The horsefiesh
is cooked in tight tanks under a
steam pressure of As pounds. This
penetrates every particle of the
meat, purifying and cooking it
thoroughly. In this form the meat
will keep from one to four weeks,
according to the weather. There
is no practical way Of preserving
horse meat for any length Of time.

destroying her young comes large

itary surroundings If the mother
is. feverish or excited it is impossi-
bic to say what she will do.-Ar-
kansas PIowman.
Carrots make most excellent
food for horses, particularly during
sickness. They improve the appe-
tite and slightly increase the action
of the bowels and kidneys. They
possess also certain Alternative prop
critics. The coat becomes smooth
and glossy when carrots are fed.
Some veterinary writer's claim that
chronic cough is cured by giving
carrots for some time. The roots
may be considered then as adjunct
to the regular regime, and if fed in
small quantities are highly bene-
fetal
Grain fed to colt during the
second Summer is a good invest
ment in -tenths Of the cases,
especially with a spring colt. If a
colt is born in the Fall and has run
with the dam through the Winter,
going upon grass in good flesh, it
will go through the season much
better than the spring colt of the
year before, although any colt will
be benefited by grain feed
An efficient preventive of black
leg in cattle is said to be composed
as follows: Ten pounds sulphur,
six pounds copperas, three pounds
saltpeter, three pounds -slaked
lime, mixed with two or three times
as much salt as of all the other in
gradients. 1t should be given to
the cattle instead of salt for few
weeks before changing feed, in the
Fall.
Milking three times day is
quite common in the dairy districts
of Normandy. In some districts
of Scotland and England they have
for years followed the same custom,
and have developed the milking
qualities of the dairy Shorthorn.
In the Isle Of Jersey the morning
and noon milk is sold the same day
and the night milk set for cream,
butter or cheese.-Farmers' Home.

Orchard and Garden.

The soil for the orchard cannot
be too rich.
Do not plant tree any deeper
than it grew in the nursery row
The object in pruning the grape
is to lessen the quantity of fruit and
improve its quality.
There is no advantage in plant
ing tender vegetables until after all
danger Of frost is past.
The holes for the trees may be
dug before the trees are brought on
the ground for planting.
To prevent premature falling off
of the fruit keep the tree healthy
and free from insect pests.
1t makes little difference about
the size of the top so long as the
tree has plenty of good roots.
If there is choice take plants of
short stocky growth rather than
such as have luxnriant branches.
An apple tree may fail to bear
because overbearing the previous
year has overexhausted the vitality.
Other things being equal, the
younger tree will make a more sat-
isfactory growth than an older one.
Now is good time to prune the
peach, cutting back the new growth
of wood severely to secure good
fruit.
As moderate pruning in the
Spring will cause the fruit to fill
less than on unpruned overburden-
ed trees.
When the vines are allowed to
run about in all directions they de-
prive each other of light and the
fruit is poor.
1t is useless to plant trees unless
they are vigorous, hardy, and pro-
ductive of fruit that will keep well
and sell we'll.
Now is a good time to set out
raspberries and black berries. Get
the work done before the plants
start to grow.
Whether the vines run horizon
tally or upright, they should be
trained as near as possible in
straight lines.
One important item in setting out
trees and plants of all kinds is to
see that the soil is filled in closely
around the roots.
Plant for succession in the garden
as we'll as in the orchard 1t is an
item to have good supply of fruits
and vegetables all the season.
In nearly every locality there are
sorts that seem best adapted to
that locality. The best of these
should always be selected in plant
ing out an orchard
In pruning of old and neglected
grape vines the principal object
should be to induce young growth
which in time is to take the place
of the old barren wood.
Fine-looking, large red apples
and fine, smooth, well-ripened pears
sell better than those of equal size
and superior quality of different
color or wanting in color
One of the best WAYS of applying
wood ashes as fertilizer to potato
es is to run out the burrows and
then put the ashes where the seed
is to be planted. Stir. we'll into the
soil, then drop the seed and cover.
The best results in spraying can
only be obtained by commencing
in good season and continuing I'M
til all danger is past. The fruit
spraying should be given by the
time the leaves or blossoms are out
fully. Then again when the bios
SONS fall and at least one more a
week or 10 days later on.

FARM Notes.
Agricultural Notes.

Ducks are careless as to where
they lay, dropping their eggs where
ever they happen to be.
A large part of the food used on
the farm goes back to the land
through the manure heap.
1t is better not to wash eggs UNI
less they are dirty, as washing
takes away the fresh look.
There is growing feeling in ia
vor of selling eggs by weight, and
it is probably only matter OF time
when that will be the practice.
Sheep will both feed and clothe
a man, which is more than can be
said of other farm animals. Many
level headed farmers still believe
in the poor despised sheep, despite
the low price of recent years.
The price of wool should not in
huence farmer overmuch in his
decision as to keeping sheep, for if
he has a good, large mutton sheep
he is sure of a profit. He cannot
always have things his own way,
and should look at all sides Of the
problem.
Sheep will keep the clover crop
ped closely, and if this is done
through the early part of the season
the seed crop will be heavier from
the late growth than by any other
manner Of handling it. The sheep
should be fairly credited with this
profit.
No farm should ever go backward
in fertility. When it fails to pro-
duee crops fully up to the average
there should be more money ex-
pended for manure or fertilizers, as
it will then be the best investment
that can be made.
Milking is business, and there
should he no foolishness about it.
Do not jerk when at the udder;
neither dawdle nor tell stories.
Get into the cows favor, so that
she will be glad to have you come
to her relief. If you cannot do
this you are not the one to milk.
There are any number of things
that can be proftably grown for
hogs aside from the grain crops.
What is the matter with artichokes,
chufas, mesquit beans, field peas,
milo maize, sugar beets, sweet po-
tatoes, squashes, sorghum and KAT
fir corn TO say nothing of alfalfa,
the best of all.
1t takes food to make wool, as
well as to make flesh. If growing
sheep only or mainly for wool, it is
just as necessary to feed we'll as
though the main object was mutton.
A sheep kept on starvation rations,
even part of the time, Will not
yield good fleece.
To make cattle feeding profitable
you must be able to keep them i'm
proving constantly, for gain costs
money, and every pound loss costs
as much to replace as it would to
have added several pounds had the
animal been kept thrifty. The one
object is to get them ready for mar
ket.- Grange Aduocate.
There is hardly anything of the
refuse of the market garden which
cows will not eat with profit. They
will even trim to the stalks the
vine and fruit of the tomato, and
will come in at night with pain
fully distended udders. Men prop
erly situated cannot do better than
combine the two industries of gar
dening and dairying.
Healthfulness is an item of i'm
portance in the management of all
stock, especially of hogs. All agree
