needed, in order to get what is needed;
what does that do7
First, 1t creates an unthrifty calf and
an unsightly one; second, it don't grow
much, only in its abdomen and its hair,
which is looking towards its head. But
the first is what the owner is after,
namely, large digestive capacity, and
its belly shows that he is succeeding.
But there Is more than that; continual
stomach distension while it is truly
making large digestion, so to speak, is
simply making a weakened one. To
be brief, there simply is no sense in
compelling calf or heifer, or a mature
animal either, to eat twice as much of
something that is not needed in the an
imal economy in order to get what is
needed. Undue stomach distension
does not make strong digestion, but
weakness in both digestion and the ami
NAL. Strike sort of happy medium.
Don't stuff calf the first winter, nor
the second, nor even the COW when
grown up with grain food, nor all clo-
yer hay. But don't 60 to the other ex-
IRENE and be fool enough to feed straw
and cornstalks wholly, and then work
hard to believe that it is the better way
The facts generally being that the hay
and grain can be sold, and the straw
and stalks cannot, 80 we come to think
they are the best for the calf or other
animal. The line of success is along
that which will best supply the indi-
vidual needs of the animal. All hay
will not do it, nor all straw nor stalks;
neither will all grain. But by studying
the individual animal we can feed in q
mixture or balance up rations, so to
speak, and make the calf thing of
beauty and profit when it grows up,
and have plenty of stomach distension
and strong digestion by feeding some
grain and some hay, and some straw as
well as some new milk and some skim

Current Comment.

OATs.-Trade continues quiet but the
market is firm, with the range of sales up
to 30c for fancy.
PoTAToEs.-Receipts have been light this
week and choice stock has been in good de-
mand and ruling higher.
CoRN.-The demand has ruled quiet
during the week but the tone of prices is
higher with values marked up about to 1c.
EGGs.-Receipts have been moderate but
80 large proportion of the trade is using
refrigerator stock that the supply of fresh is
full more than enough to meet the demand.
CHEEsE.-Receipts for export, 1864 boxes.
Demand has been slack for the past week.
Buyers are pretty well stocked up and since
the last advance in prices have been hold
ing off.
BUTTER.-Receipts are moderate for this
season OF the year, but receivers find ii diff
cult to prevent stocks from accommodating,
many buyers are using June goods. There
has been very little change in prices but the
market is shade easier If anything.
FLouR.-The wheat market has taken a
turn for the better and values are held
higher all along the line. Buyers are in
quandry and will only purchase very con-
plies. The feeling is that when new wheat
gets into shape to be ground alone values
will work down from their present point,
and this induces buyers to hold back.
WooL.-We have again to record big
sales and booming market In fact the
market is advancing more rapidly than most
OF the trade dared to hope. There has been
but a slight movement in the price OF terri.
tory wool, but Texas and California have
ranged up abreast of the line, and there
have been further advances in fleeces and
in Australian woods. A few large mills
have been in the market and they have
taken big blocks.
LUMBKR.-The market is gaining strength
each week and naturally would now that
the season of activity is starting in. The
new duty is beginning to have its effect and
values on cargoes have risen from SOC to 81
a thousand since the first Of August. Even
at this advance the manufacturers feel that
they are not getting profitable prices, and
as a result q number Of the mills at Bangor
and on the St. John river have closed down
to await better market. The cut thus
said to have been taken out Of the market
is about one million feet day.

bear even sooner than that. Then
there are all the berries. We have
said good deal about strawberries this
season in the WATCHMAN, and we
hope that next spring many Of our
readers will be enjoying this luscious
fruit. In many parts of Vermont red
raspberries grow wild in great abund-
ance, but they often grow far back from
houses, and in most cases the picking
requires long walk and hard time in
the hot sun. 1t is very different hav-
ing your berry patch close to the house
where you can run out and pick few
berries at any time. Then there is
the abundance of garden vegetables
which can be easily grown even on a
small plot of ground. Strictly fresh
vegetables can only be found right
where they are grown. Some one has
said that the only way to have really
fresh green corn is to have the water
hot before the corn is picked. So with
green peas, and many other things.
The vegetables which are carried into
the cities may be only day or two old,
but they are not fresh. They have lost
that delicate flavor which belongs to
those just taken from the garden.
