III. NJ. Fugel, a farmer and expert
miller Of Missouri. tells farmers in
stftute that wheat should not be har-
vested till thoroughly ripened. Such
wheat keeps better in shock, stack or
bin, and it makes much better -four
than that harvested in the dough stage
Of the grain. 1t will look somewhat
shrunken, but in milling the bran fakes
Off more easily, the -four is whittier and
rises better in the oven than that from
the smooth. plump wheat cut earlier.
The best -four also comes from wheat
which has gone through the sweat while
yet In the straw. All wheat sweats,
either in the stack or bin, and the gain
in quality by having 1t sweat in the
straw will more than pay for stacking
rather than threshing from the shock

Corn Stalks and Butter.

Every farmer knows that timothy
hay, however good 1t may be for horses,
is inferior to corn stalks as a feed for
milch cows In winter. The cream and
butter made from milk for which corn
stalks is the man feed are higher col
ored and also OF better quality than
that made by feeding hay. But the corn
stalks are not a complete ration, even
when REINFORCED by corn. A small
amount OF clover hay with them each
day is necessary, whether the stalks
are fed dry or from the silo. 1t is not
only the dry feed that the cows need,
but the heterogeneous nutriment which
the clover furnishes that makes it SO
valuable.

great distinctness, but as the
source is Spanish there is an
open suspicion that the news
may be given out for the ex-
press purpose of injuring the
insurgent cause.
Secretary Quesada and other
Cuban representatives here
have all along denied that the
insurgents would accept any
thing short of independence,
and they profess to be shocked
and disappointed at the story
of weakening on the part of
Gomez. They will not admit
that he has communicated with
them, but the legation story is
to the effect that a letter from
the Cuban general was receiv-
ed by the junta on December
20 in which he says that !. if
Weyler is recalled and MART
nez Campos, Calleja Isla or
General Pando sent in his
place, the insurgents will be
ready to talk of laying down
