Feeding Potatoes.

One of our experiment stations says
that for dairy stock it is doubtful, 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 a fattening ration.
Potatoes can not be fed 10 young
animals as safely as to more mature ones.
If fed in too large quantities they have a
tendency to prematurely fltten the ami
NAL and build up a lighter framework.
With more mature animals, when the
fattening period is largely period of the
addition of fat 60 the body, the potatoes
can then be fed 10 advantage and more
economically. In the feeding of large
quantities Of potatoes, no more should be
fed than the animals can comfortably
dispose of in one day. In one of tho di-
gestion trials, when 10 pounds Of potatoes
per day were offered, the pig refused
about half of them; when only 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 10 state. at the present
time. the actual money value of potatoes
in the production of pork and beef. when
fed in proper combinations potatoes will
without doubt yield a larger return than
their present market price, EdTmcrs'

The breeders Gazette" SAYS that. not
withstanding prices for all kinds OF farm
animals are low, the fact remains that il
is suicidal to try to carry on farming op-
erations without live stock.
According to the United States census,
the hens OF this country average 100 eggs
each year. Some egg-producing con-
tests last year showed that hen can be
induced TO lay lSO in year.
Recently a whole herd of swine belong

posed cholera, but examination after
death showed that the hogs had gorged
themselves with pumpkin seeds, which
did not digest.
Never guess at anything connected with
dairying. Use a thermometer, weigh the
salt that goes into the butter, aud. above
all, know something of the breeding of
the cows used for producing tho milk.
1t is claimed that any land that will
produce corn VIII be suitable for apples,
pears, plums or cherries. Fruit-grOwing

as the demand seems to keep pace with
the supply.
Where wheat or rye has been throw n
up by frost run the roller over the field
if the ground will bear the teams. BY so
doing loss may be prevented, as a large
number of plants thrown out will be es-
tablished again.
Keep the hogpen well litered with straw
so as to have it warm. The place where
the brood sow and pigs are kept should
have fresh supply of cut straw every
day. The straw will aid in keeping the
pigs warm 10y preventing draughts along
the floor.

Only a Single Hair.

The French people never tire of relat-
ing anecdotes of the eccentricity and
enormous wealth Of Americans. An
American went into hairdresser's shop
in Paris recently and found a charming
but poorly dressed girl engaged in
negotiations with the proprietor. She
was Offering to sell him her magnificent
head of hair for three Napoleons-the
man would give her no more than one.
At last the poor girl gave away with tears,
and the barber was about to employ the
fatal scissors when the American inter
vened and demanded the cause Of the sad
affair.
He found that the girls parents. who
formerly had been well of, were in the
last extremity of poverty, and that she
had determined 10 make so great a
sacrifice in order to obtain them little
bread. The stranger drew out two bank
notes and offered them 10 the girl saying:
viii you let me buy your hair?''
Without even looking at the notes the
girl at once said: ''Yes."
The American delicately took a single
hair, put it in his pocket-book-and fled.
Not till he had gone did she look at her
bank notes and found them to be OF the

Secretary Morton has been doing some
figuring in connection with the items
which have been placed in the agricui-

ated to bug seeds for free distribution,
il will cost the post-office department

She Was Not TO Blame.

\ little Cincinnati girl was at the
seashore during the summer with her
parents, and was very fond of putting
on her bathing suit and going into the
water along the beach. She was
cautioned about going near the wafer
alone, and, though she was often dress
ell in her sui; and allowed TO play
along the sand, she was forbidden to
venture into the water, even to wade.
One day she was playing on the beach,
aud, forgetting the motherly injunc-
ton, she waded out ankle deep in the
tapping waves. She met her mother
reproof later with disturbed counten-
ance, but had no excuse TO offer.
What made you wa de into the
water asked the mother, when |
told you not to do so?'
'Oh, the devil made me, mamma,
was the reply.
Yes pIrsaed her mother, 'but why
didn't you say to him: Get behind
me, satan"
Il did, mamma; did, and the
tears began TO gather in the little eyes;
and, mamma, he just got behind me
and pushed me right in. .'-CiacianGti
