number. There was usually deficiency
of knives, forks and glasses, and the
guests had to bawl for more supplies,

The muscles, in common with all the
organs of the body, have their stages of
development and decline. Our physical
strength increases up to a certain age
and then decreases. Tests Of the strength
of several thousands of people have been
made by means of dynamometer
strength measurer), and the following
are given as the average figures for the
white race:
The tlifting power" Of a youth Of II
years Il $50 pounds. In his twentieth
year this Increases to 800 pounds, and
in the thirtieth and thirty first years it
reaches its height, s56 pounds. At the
end of the thirty first year the strength
begins to declire, very slowly at first.
By the fortieth year it has decreased
eight pounds, and this diminution con-
tinues at slightly increasing rate until
the fiftieth year is reached, when the
figure is $50 pounds.
After this period the strength fails
more and more rapidly until the weak
ness of old age is reached. It is not pos
siLle to give statistics of the decline OF
strength after the fiftieth year, as it
varies to large extent in different in
dividuals. Strand Magazine.

Some people have peculiar notions of

a resident of neighboring town was
preaching at the Gladstone Jail and
prefaced his remarks by regretting the
small attendance. At a race meeting
held at --- band was engaged to play

that the numbers selected were from

were all equally appropriate.

at the local Jail and hymns suitable to
the occasion were of course selected.

Feeding value of Maize storer.


Maize slower in some form or other
is one of the most abundant foods in the
United States for all kinds of farm ami
mails. In some localities it almost ex-
cludes other forms of coarse feed, such
as timothy hay, clover, etc. This fod-
der is often fed in the coarse state with
out any preparation whatever. In this
condition very large percentage of it
is wasted, the cattle eating little except
the blades, and perhaps some Of the
smaller and tenderer parts of the stalk.
In the older parts Of the country it is
now becoming quite general to have the
maize slower finely shredded before be-
ing fed. This not only increases the
quantity which becomes available for
feed. but also leaves the manure in a
much better condition for spreading on
the field.
The general results of feeding expert
ments made with this product at the
Maryland and New York stations show
that as feed the slower is greatly in
creased in value by the removal of the
pith, the pith being less digestible and,
on account of it's high absorptive prop
critics, consuming too much of the gas
trio excretions. There seems to be no
doubt of the fact that the feeding value
