SCIENTIFIC PIG FEEpIN1.

Scientific pig feeding has been M.
dertaken at the Vermont Experiment
Station. It was iounl that sixty-two
per cent. Of the market value OF the
food WAS got back in the value Of the
manure, when the latter was properly
handled. The cost of food for a pound
of increase in live weight and the
profits we're slightly in favor of the
less watery ration, but the shrinkase
at slaughter was the same in these
pigs as in those fed on dryer ration.
Buttermllk had about four-tifths the
feeding value of skim milk. Poland.
Chinas and Berkslires gave the same
results. but in another test Berkshires
outstripped Yorizshires. In most cases

worth. At the Danish station at Pros.
kau, feeding corn meal was followed
by good results in every case. Corn
meal may be fed to pigs under four
months old with no bad results, pro.
vided the amount fed be not too great
at first, but gradually increased, and

slightly larger gain than those fed

decide upon tho purchase of a new Ii.

MAKING A lOTBED.

In many sections OF the country
fresh vegetables may be had the year
round If hotbed IS constructed and
properly cared for. Such bed may
not be an expensive one of brick Or
stone, covered with glass, unless the
owner so desires. Oiled canvas
stretched over q frame will answer tho
purpose nearly as we'll as glass and
will be far cheaper. 1t should be
made few. days before needed, so
that the oil can penetrate through and
through tho cloth. L;nsecd oil is
best, and may be applied by means Of
common paint brush.
For the Lotbed make bed OF com.
mon barnyarl manure, being sure
there is no COW dung ia it. Turn this
over aud over two or three times at
intervals of four or five days. Allow
the manure to ferment until smoking
hot. When the manure is thoroughly
heated make an excavation two feet
longer and two feet wider than the
box, which may be Of inch boards.
The back part should be about twenty
inches high and TIE front twelve or
fourteen inches. This will give y
sloping top, which will permit the
rain to run of. Tho cover may be
made SO it can be pushed down or up
ut the owners will or q stick with
uotchos in it at intervals will answer
rs we'll. In this way the cover can be
lifted entirely off the bed Or be raised
just enough to admit the necessary air
and light. By having II notched stick
the cover vii! take no extra room
when not in use. The hotbed may be
OF any size desired.
In the excavation place six or seven
inches OF rich soil, and upon this the
termenting dung until tho bed is
about two feet high. On top OF this
place three or lonr inches OF pulver.
lied soil. Put on the frame and keep
it covered until the temperature rises
to 120 degrees, then cow the seed.
Every night until danger OF frost is
past cover with mats or similar protcc-
ton. The bed should bo opened

this distinction is the First Presby ter-

valid, who can thus enjoy all tho sing

New Name for Rabbit SKIN.

"Electric SEAL" which is simply
rabbit skin dressed to resemble the
genuine seal as nearly as possible, is

are first dressed to make them soft and

are plucked out by electricity. In
color and warmth there is very little
choice between the real seal and this
clever imitation. -New York Sun.

GROWING GRAIN TO Feed DOWN.

Eastern farmers when they grow
grain always adopt the method of
harvesting rather than allow hogs and
other stock to turn in and feed it down.
This last in the West usoA always to
be done with corn, wasting thereby
some grain and losing altogether or
nearly so the value OF tho corn stalks.
This is now generally recognized as
being too wasteful of valuable feed to
be profitable. But some Western
farmers think that growing rye to feed
down is less vaste!ul than is corn for
the same purpose. The rye straw ns
feed is undoubtedly not so valuable
rs the corn stalks, and where there is
no market for the rye straw the grain
crop may be grown for the purpose OF
trampliag it down by hogs and pigs.
A correspondent CT the Prairie Farmer
writes that he has found rye thus fed
especially valuable for sows with young
pigs. The little pigs pick up the rye
grains scattered by the old SOW as she
crunchcs the rye heads. It il; m c1-
cellent early feed, the rye coming to
head before the Indian corn is any
where near caring, and at time when
old corn in many farmers cribs i:
exhausted. Besides, the rye is pound
Tor pound worth more for growing
animals than is the Indian corn, as rye

Cola. aud lis Uses,

II the average reader or thinker will
devote few minutes to the subject OF
gold and it's uses, and how much OF
it annually disappears by wear, leav.
ing no possible trace, he will iipd him
self involved in some extremely inter-
esting calculations. Ii some genius
would only invent power strong
enough TO attract to it the millions OF
invisible particles that have, and ere
constantly being worn off the various
articles composed OF that metal, what
m immense amount would be re.
covered.
Where do these PARTICLES go? Here,
there, everywhere: in your house, on
tho streets, in tho banks, business
houses, stores, and wherever man
goes. As IN instance Of this the fol-
lowing is cited: There is at present
veritable gold mine being worked in
an old watch-case factory in Brooklyn.
It occurred to the new purchasers Of
this property that during the. long
years of manufacturing Of gold watch
cases that took place there, a large
quantity of gold particles must have
been absorbed by the flooring, walls,
furnace, chimney, etc. So they went
carefully to work and tore the old
building down bit by bit, and burnt
and crushed the material, afterwards
assuying the ashes. So far something
like $4,000 has been recovered. Say
IN ounce of this lost gold were re-
covered. If we melted it down and
gilded fine silver wire, it would ex-
tend more than thirteen hundred
miles; or if nineteen ounces were re-.
covered (which in the form of a cube
would be about one inch and quarter
square,, it would gild a wire long
enough to compass the whole eurth
like hoop.
II you pic. up gold. leaf, such as is
used for gliding purposes, it becomes
q curiosity in your eyes when You
realize that seventy-tive square inches
OF 1t weigh only one grain. Now the
thousandth part Of a line, or inch, is
easily visible through 8 common
pocket-glass. Hence it follows that
when gold is reduced to the thinness
of gold leaf 1.5070oo00 of grain OF
gold may be distinguished by the eye.
But it is claimed tbat l-l4O00O0000 Of
grain Of gold may be rendered Wis.
ible.
Large quantities Of gold are used in
gliding portions Of exteriors Of public
and private buildings. For instance,
if we take the Church of St. Isaac at
st. Petersburg, We find that it re-
Quircd the use of two hundred and
forty~seven pounds of gold TO gild its
five crosses. They can be seen gilt
tering at distance Of twenty-seven
miles. -Harper's Round Table.

COWS GOING DRY TOO LONG

Ihc time g COW goes dry is the time
when she is costing her expense of
Keeping and making no return. It is
with many COWS worse than this, for
the COW that is not MIXED fattens and
is more likely to suiler during parturi-
ton than the milk COW which keeps in
moderate flesh. A worse result follows,
US the COW allowed once to go dry too
long gets in the habit of drying off at
the same period Of CESSATION, and is
thus made less valuable as mixer all
her life. If the COW is we'll fed
she may be MIXED with advantage
