SUGAR REFINING.

Two MILLION TONS OF SUGAR CONSUMED IN

epoch in the sugar industry OF the United States.
The war with Spain and the annexation of the

there is a mysterious state Of affairs the true
import Of which will be known to the CONNER

great war between refineries concerning which
so much has been said for the last six months.

BRIGHT HORSE TALK.
II You Will Follow the Rules Here

Cause for Complaint.

Skim milk in moderate quantities is
excellent for colts just after weaving.
The colt should be pecially well fed
on muscle and bone forming feeds the
first two years of his life. ..
Liberal feeding of the young and
growing colt is as necessary to make a
well developed horse as bree ding. The
two must be com bined.
A small feed of oil meal in the grain
keeps a colt healthy and laxative and
in growing condition.
Roots, especially carrots, are most
excellent for colts and horses when
fed in moderate quantities. ..
The education of the horse should
begin at very early age and be con-
tinued until it is we'll trained.
Horses should not be put on the mar
ket before they are five or six years
old, and should always be well trained,
well groomed, and in good condition
when offered for sale.
Allow the horse water often and be-
fore feeding grain rather than imme-
diately after.
Too much coarse fodder should not
be fed at once. Hundreds of horses are
ruined every year by too much hay at
feed. 1t must be borne in mind tina:
the stomach of the horse is small.
The colts foot should be trimmed
into shape with the farrier's pinchers,
rasp and knife occasionally. Doing
this will save many defects in hoofs

How to Measure Corn,

If shelled-Find the contents or ca
pacity of the bin by multiplying to-
gether the length. width and height in
inches and dividing the product by
215O.4; the quotient will be the number
of bushels. On the cob-Find the ca
pacity of the bin or crib in the same
way as above and divide the product by
STA, of which the quotient will ex-
press the number of bushels of actual
corn. This is for seasoned corn. If it
be unseasoned divide by 3,sss instead
of 3,744. If in the husk-Find capacity
by the same process and divide by 6,995
to get the bushels of shelled corn. The
capacity of barrel is practically 6,995
cubic inches, and barrel of corn in the
husk is the equivalent of bushel of
shelled corn.

ROOM FOR A FLOCK.
Close C-ovding of Poultry II In.
variably Bound to Result In
DisappOint

If there is plenty of land it will pay
to allow an acre of ground to so hens,
the hens to occupy half an acre while
grass is growing on the other portion.
Of course, this may appear expensive,
but the hens will thrive better and give
better profit. The greatest difficulty
to be met with is the cost of fences.
This, however, depends upon the kind
of fence. It may be possible that if
there is a space of an acre between the
focks they will remain separate, as
stray members from one flock to an
other are always given a reception that
is not very agreeable; but to have green
food growing upon portion of the
ground will require fencing. Every
thing depends upon how much money
one wishes to invest, the governing in
fuence in deciding such matters be-
ing capital. So far as space in the poul-
try house is concerned, it may be stated
that the habit of crowding fowls in a
small poultry house has existed so long
that when the beginner is advised to al
low each hen ten square feet of room
in a poultry house he is prone to object
because of the expense. 1T takes too
much money" is the reply. Probably
that is true. but if one has not the cap
ital he will find it more economical to
stay out than to stay in with the condi-
lions against him. If ten hens require
house ten by ten feet, it seems like a
large space, but there should be plenty
of room for SCRATCHING and keeping
busy. Ten hens in such a house will
lay more eggs than will twice that
number that are crowded.-Farm and

nearly always have large, or medium
large, combs, and these are bright
ed. A hen with pale, shrivelled comb
is never good layer. A prolific lay
ing hen, moreover, almost always
shows great activity-even in the case
of the larger and more sluggish breeds.
In the latter case the good layer will
not hustle about like the Leghorn, but
will be found, however, excepting
everlanstingly at it, searching for
bugs and worms if on free range, or
tor grain in the litter if confined,
though much, of course. depends upon
judicicus feeding in either, or any
case. Profitable fowls can as certain
ly be picked out by the eye as can
profitable dairy cows; and while hen
that has the egg type" and other ex-
ternal marks of being profitable fowl
may sometimes turn out to be a poor
layer, as cows with fine dairy form
sometimes prove disappointing at the
pail and churn, yet these will be found
the exceptions that prove the rule.
And in this connection it may be
stated that the easiest way to get a
uniformity of EGG type" fowls is to
breed thoroughbreds that for genera
tons have been bred for prolific lay
ing qualities. Some of our prolific lay
ing breeds, as the Leghorns, the Ply
mouth Rocks and the Light Brahmas,
ere very uniformly of this type, and
in selecting breeders year after year
this form should constantly be kept in
mind. Weed out the unproductive
birds and give the others chance to
show the desirable proft.-N. Y. Trib-

Fun-Loyinr Princesses,

The two elder daughters of the duke
of Saxe-Coburg are real mischief-lov-
ing girls, married and mothers though
they be, and it is absurd to expect them
to walk a crack simply because they
are SO unlucky as to be royalties. The
grand duchess of Hesse is unlike her
giddy sister. the crown princess of
Roumania inasmuch as she lacks the
happy power to take joke or the wit
to make one, but otherwise she is a
bright young thing, whose husband is
very much of an unlinked cub. But the
Edinburgh girls as they were called
till their marriage, suffer the penalty
of occupying conspicuous positions,
and every act is scrutinized by the
none too wise or friendly eyes of their
respective households. It is very droll,
just the same. to hear of the grand
duchess having been 'kodaked" by her
sister as she was emerging from mud
bath at Schwalbach, and easy to i'm
agine the rage of a mud-enveloped
Venus when the madcap princess
added to the insult by sending prints
of her to relatives and friends all over
Europe. Of course there has been the
dickens. to pay in that family circle
ever since. But girls will be girls, no
matter what their Standardization
