MoLAssEs AS STOCK FOOD
A Revolution In Stock Feeding In Lou
isiana.


On many Louisiana sugar planta-
lions the use of molasses as stock feed
during the last two years has prac-
tically revolutionized the stock feed
question. There is little use in
Louisiana planter producing corn,
although it is valuable stock feed,
when he is either throwing his mo-
lasses into the bitches or selling IL at |
two cents n gallon, which is practical
ly nine cents bushel for corn, when,
pound for pound, it has about equiva-
lent value with corn for stock feed.
Scores OF plantations are now util-
izing large part of their molasses
for this purpose. the there is no doubt
but that finally those planters who
find themselves unable to consume at
home or, among their tenants, all the
molasses they make, will buy cattle
and hogs, TO which to feed this valua-
BILE by-product, worth in actual money
on the plantations, as against corn, at
least six cents per gallon in bulk.
1t is true that molasses does not
constitute balanced ration, as our
agricultural chemists call it, it is lack
ing in heterogeneous material Corn,
however, constitutes an almost equal
ly unbalanced ration. We may in time
learn to utilize cotton.see meal in con-
nection with molasses, the meal being
very highly heterogeneous food. I'm
til we shall learn TO do this our best
course is to feed our stock on oats
and molasses, the molasses taking the
place entirely Of corn, and the oats
making up the somewhat defective ra'
ton, SO far as efficiency for working
stock is concerned.
Were it not for the difficulty OF re-
tanning large amounts OF molasses on
the plantations its use would be prac
tically universal, and none would be Of
fered' at the ruinously low prices thai
It brings in the markets. Molasses in

large capacity can be bought yer
cheaply, and made to retain all OF tn
surplus molasses, and in this way
can readily be held for use as needed
1t certainly seems an economic GRIN

according to report, in consequence Of
the action of the chamber Of deputies in
amending the bill dealing with army pro-
motions, which was opposed by the minis

of the Morning Post Mt London asserts
that the resignation of the minister Of
war was only u political move UNDER
taken in order to make 1t possible for the
Marquis di Rudini to secure unanimous

THE LOWERING REPRIMAND.

disappointing that an ofensc so grave
and as an example so far-rcQching as
this should have been visited with so
light penalty. There is no question
but that Private Hammond deserved pun
ishment for his conduct. Int he should
have received it in a lawful way. me
military laws governing the army are cX-
plcit They prescribe the duties OF otf-
GERS and enlisted men. with the pcna ties
for their violation. Under them. both
have rights and obligations. When. there
fore, an officer with the intelligence and
experience with which Capt Lowering is
credited. not only violates these laws.
Dut exhibits such a lack of humanity
ms is shown in this case. he should re-
ceiyc q more severe sentence than n mere
reprimand. Committing such acts de-
grades the officer more than the soldier
he punished. and shows unfitness for the
care and command of mon. Under eX-
element. men frequently do things which
in cooler moments they recall with sor-
row and regret. But this case is aggrn-
yated by the fact that after weeks OF de-
liberation this officer cvinces no regret
