The Rest Use of Rrnn.

Bran is much more highly thought of
as feed than it used to be. But il has
its limitations, and should not be relied
upon entirely when fed alone. 1t is an
excellent feed to give to animals that
have a Surfet of corn, and should al
ways form part of the ration of fat
tening sheep. 1t is not SO good for
hogs, as its course texture makes ii
rnpalatable. But fine wheat middlingS

of albuminoids than corn has. and
therefore supplement its deficiencies.

contain much of the nutriment that

Variety of Food Necessary.

In most Of the discussions about
what kinds of food are best, the fact
is overlooked that no one food gives
all the nutritive elements in their prop
er combination for best results. A va
riety Of food is needed, uot merely to
tempt appetite, but to keep animals
in the best health. This is especially
important for animals that are being
fattened and thus encouraged to cat
all they can. 1t is scarcely less so for
animals that are growing, and which
need in some kind of their feed the ele-
ments that make bone and muscle rath-
er than fat Corn, which is the staple
grain feed with most farmers, is least
adapted of all for a single ration.

Milking Tine.

ubsoilinp for Corn

1t is generally agreed among farm
ers that shallow blowing is best for
corn. This is all right so far as keep
ing the vegetable matter near the sur
face, where it will make the most
warmth for corn. But it Is none the
less advisable in dry time to lave
the soil deeply pulverized, not for the
corn roots to reach down for moisture,
but that it may arise by capillary at
traction to the upper strata, where the
roots are most abundant. Subsoiling
will do this better than anything else.
The best time to do subsoiling is in the
fall. There is then time for the lower
strata to fill with water during winter
and spring. We can never know, in
advance when drouth will injure corn.
Many fields would have yielded this
year much larger crops of corn If the
land had been subsoiled the year be-
fore.
