Meat and Grain.

For the successful production Of eggs
at any season of the year it is necessary
that the hens should have a mixed ami.
NAL and vegetable diet During the sum
mer months insects and worms are
abundant, and fowls having a range can
easily supply themselves with animal
food, but i'll the winter this necessity
must be supplied if the best results are
to be obtained. Meat scraps and green
bones are the best substitutes and should
be fed at least twice a week. When
farmers feed more wheat and less grain,
they will have larger profits from poul-
try. The introduction Of the green bone
cutter also lessons the cost as cheap
bones and meat can be cut fine and fed
without the necessity of cooking the
meat.
A fair comparison between grain and
meat will show that meat Is really
cheaper than grain, because it increases
egg production and also contains less
waste. A grain fed hen appropriates a
large part of it to the storage Of fat,
which is not desirable, while lean meat
is almost entirely heterogeneous. The food
which produces no eggs is decid Idly the
most expensive to use.

Thinps That Are Told.

Senator Gallinger of New Hampshire
is urging through the senate a bill ap.
propriating $15, 900 for a government
fish hatchery in that state.
The thorough acclimatization of the
Mongolian pheasant in Massachusetts is
reported by correspondent who recent.
ly visited one of the fish and game
commissioners of that state, at his home,
in Winchester.
Massachusetts is the first state that
has arranged to spend large amount of
money in stamping out tuberculosis in
cattle, $3.50, 600 having been appropri-
ated. The National Stockman says,
''There is no danger of Massachusetts,
or any other state being able to stamp
out tuberculosis, no matter how much
money is appropriated for that purpose. "
A wide tire bill is before the Massa-
chusetts legislature.

Grasses In Prairie Sections.

In prairie sections, and more especial
ly where the summer rainfall is def
cient, the most suitable places for per
manent pastures of a mixed character
are the sloughs and valleys Blue grass
and white clover make these ON the
higher lands where variety will not
grow so well. Our permanent pastures
in the Mississippi valley and westward
toward the Rockies should embrace on
ly few varieties and they should be
made in the lower and moister lands
They may oftentimes include alsike
and white clover timothy, redtop and
blue grass In some instances orchard
grass may proftably be added and in
others medium red clover, which, how
ever, is soon likely to disappear, since
it is short lived The following proper
tions may be used per acre, but there
may be excellent reasons for varying
them:

FORAGE CROPS.
What Crops to Grow For Feeding Next
Fall and Winter.

w nat crops TO NroW TOT FttuihE
Fall and Winter.
Indian corn, when properly planted
and cultivated, gives the largest yield
of forage Per acre Of any of our ordinary
crops. Therefore corn should furnish the
foundation for fall and winter feeding.
Plant in drills, kernels eight inches in
the row, the largest or most rapid grow
ing variety of corn, which Will pass the
"milk stage" before the first frost usu
ally occurs. Before the corn comes up
cultivate and harrow, thereby stealing
a march" on the weeds In ten days to
two weeks cultivate, or If on sandy, light
land harrow instead. Every ten days
thereafter until the corn has all tasseled
out cultivate with an implement which
has more and SIN Iler teeth than those
in common use, taking care TO cultivate
deeply at the beginning and more shall
low as the season progresses. Do not
hill the corn Thus writes an eastern
correspondent of Country Gentleman,
authority for the following;
In addition to this, prepare in the best
manner possible one or more acres Of
clay loan land and give a dressing of
from 20 to 60 bushels per acre Of quick
lime ON the surface after it is plowed.
Plant mangels early in drills 30 to "a
inches apart Run hand cultivator
through one or more times when the
plants are large enough to bear 1T. After
that cultivate with the horse hoe thin
and dress up with the hand hoe. From
this time ON mangels are as easily raised
as corn, provided the preliminary work
has been done well. 1t may be we'll to
run the hand cultivator through just be-
fore the plants appear above ground If
the seeds have been planted so that the
rows can be readily followed, Thirty
tons of mangels per acre should be Sc
cured. Forty tons is a large yield Since
more or less hand labor is required in
raising roots it is economy to raise the
40 tons ON one acre instead of two
If there is any vacant ground unseed-
ed, oat, wheat stubble and the like,
plow it as soon as the crop has been re-
moved, cultivate occasionally until Aug.
/ to 10 and SOW mixture of one bushel
of peas, one of barley and one of rye
per acre. The aim should be to keep the
land covered during the entire season
with young, vigorous plants of some
kind
If the corn is used for ensilage, it will
naturally come off early, and it is wise
to start a second crop of some kind at
the time the last cultivation is perform
ed. Here may be used turnip seed, Grim
son clover or barley and peas sown from
horseback ahead of the cultivator. This
last cultivation should be at least two
weeks later than the time usually Sc
lected for laying by" the corn. If the
corn has not been planted too thickly
and the land is kept in proper filth and
is fairly fertile, a large quantity of val
liable fall feed may be secured from the
same land that grew the corn,
