cents day per COW.
THESE few rations will give you an idea of what
rations are and how they are made up, but may not
be applicable to any individual case The seectlon
of the by-product will vary from time to time with
the market and should be chosen with reference 10
cheapness, other things being equal;
The prices fixed on the home products are about
as much as can be realized at present market prices
so feeding to cows would afford a home market ior
things that cannot be disposed of easily If at all
A ration such as grain mixture No with cut
corn fodder would make a years feed cost about
S3I 90 per and this is the basis used in the ds-
cussion of the profits and losses in table l. r,
In practice many will find that they can 1eed
cows cheaper than this where soiling crops are
used a good portion of the year, but it was not o!
deemed advisable to consider any lower figures in
this presentation of the subject beginners could
not calculate starting off on any cheaper basis
These considerations show that many farmer
may be able with good cows ard good metnous 70
go into dairying and make good wages for himself,
have profitable market for crops which are now
improbable, improve his farm and have small
surplus'in cash, who under the present syste m is
going behind financially.
Before and after his afternoon address Prof
Patterson was piled with numerous questions
He said that South Carolina rock contained no
lime Originally the rock was made up OF
the bony parts of animals and eXcrement,
but became petrifed and in the change the
the bone disappeared. Peach orchards should
be fertilized with something that cause quick
growth, to made wood and hardy trees; then
use potash, phosphoric acid and little nitrate
He did not think it would be profitable to
raise sun-hower seed. Better results could
be obtained by planting the land in corn.
There would be considerable labor in cutting
off the heads and they would have to be
spread out to dry, because if laid in piles the
heads would mold. Then, the English spar
row is very destructive and eat large pro-
portion of the seed.
Prof Patterson, in reply to inquiries, spoke
of the value of beets for stock feeding, SAID
kale should be sown broadcast, that pea, hulls
would make good silage, that he would not
think of feeding silage exclusely any more
than he would adopt sauer krout as sole
food for himself ,&c., &c.

NO MORE COLoRs IN BATTLE

NO MORE COLORS IN BATTLE.
The old colors of the Sixty fourth
Foot, now the First Battalion, Prince
ofWsles' North Staffordshire r gimer {.
serving in Egypt, were recently de.
posted in Litch6eld Cathedral with an
impressive ceremony. These cclors :
placed the old Cawnpore colors IN 1882
and are now fixed by the side Of IL en-
in the scurh isle. Before proceeding
down the Nile new colors were pre-
sented to the regiment at Cairo by tie
Duke of Cambridge last spring, and tie
rstired colors were sent home. Col.
Thouas Currie. who commands ID.
rcpim mt, arrived in England few do. :
ago on leave, and journeyed especial
to Litchfeld to be present at the cerc'
mony. Tue colors were carried p,
Capt. Astell aod Lieut.. w. H. Coli
Inch, who comm aDded the Maxim gun
at Firket on the way to Dongola, and
who recently arrived in Litchfeld for
duty with the depot. The troops Of the
North Staffcrdshire Depot, with COM
psny of the Bedordshire Regi
mept, escorted the colors from Whit
tington Barracks, al d they were re
ceiVed by the Dean of Litchfeld on be-
half the Chapter of the Cathedral. A
the close of the ceremony, DR.. Luce ok,
the dean, delivered an address, re
counting the valiant deeds OF the legi
ment, and said it was source OF dis
appointment to many that the colors
were now not carried into action. The
greatest general was the one who could
achieve the most brilliant victory with
the least sacrifice of human life, and Ill
this connection he had received let
ter from Lord Wolselev, commander
in chief, who wrote: I'm future it
would be madness and crime TO order
any man to carry colors into action.
You might quite as well order him 10
be assassinated. The Germans carry
the poles Oh which the colors used TO
be sothat they attract no notion in &C
ton. We bavehad, most reluctantly,
to abandon practice to which we ut
tached great importance, aud which,
under past and gone conditions Of
fighting, was invaluable in keeping
alive the regimental spirit upon which
our British troops depended so much

IMPROVE THE YUMA ROAD.

The Yuma road west of Monihon's s rarch is in very bad condition. Be
 twesn the Five Points and the Santa Fe, railroad crossing the road has a good covering of gravel. Then comes a stretch of dirt that is extremely dusty. From Monihon's west the dirt lies heaped in ridges and travel is seriously fmpeded. In some plac S the dust is six inches deep The Yuma road is one of the important roads of the valley. Thousands of cords of wood are hauled over it every week. Big freight teams are seem on it at all hours. The people living along the road were among the first to settle in the Salt River valley They have paid taxes fer years with nothing to show for their money in the form of an improved highway. It is time that their demand for relief in this d.rec- tionI should be considered. The scenery in the western part of the valley is beautiful, and with a good road this would be one of the finest drives in the county. The road ought to be graded end graveled beslre the winter rains set in. We trust that the supervisors will address themselves to this needed improve ment without further solicitation.

THE MERIT SYSTEM.

The most Impressive argument il favor of the merit system is to bt found in the alignment of forces tha- are forming to test the permamancy O. the civil service law. Notice who are the friends and who are the foes o the reform and see if the principl; should not be sustained The presi dent insists that the system shall bs upheld. Encompassed with the gIave responsibilities of his place at the head of the administration, he is ir a position to appreciate what a cor. rupting, demoralizing, impa.ufng force the spoils system is. It means con- fusion, corruption, chaos and ineffic- iency in the public service. It means party division and weaknsss.
 Secretary Lcng hopes that the sys- tenn will not be impaired He be- Heves the president is right and should be srlstai- ed He holds that the great body of people have no de sire to go back to Ghe old system. As the head of the navy he is keenly alive to the indispensabilEty cf a test of merit and discipline in maintain ing an efficient service
 So with all the other secretaries. They want their great departments to show creditalble results and they know that this will mot be the case if responsible places are to be peddIed out as rewards of partisan service.
 All citizens who have no selfish personal interests at stake and desire only that the government. should attain ths very highest degree of eff cheney, are anxious that the merit principle, the protection of the com the attack on civil serv1ce in opposi- ton ito the presidents views and ii utter disregard of the pledges of the republican platform, is Congressman Charles H. Grosyenor of Ohio, a poli- tician of the peruicious spoils type a man Who holds to the idea that the highest reaches of political success are to revel in the fatness of office holding and help his friends plente- ously to pelf. Joining in the pn- slaught on the civil service are federal nppointees like Pension Commission. CT Evans and sundry other rapaciou; spoilsmen. The antagonism of re- publicans of such ilk ought to com mend the system which they seek t1 destroy in the minds of all friends of good government. Civil service should be upheld and extended fos the virulenE and vorHcious enemies il has made
