Az the station at Guelph, Canada, 500
lambs were fattened on a>5O-acre field
OF THIS plant. The weakness of our
stock-feeding system has in the past
been the shortness of the summer and
tall pastures. This the cultivation of
rape promises to remedy. We hope
that many of the readers Of the Farm
ers, Review will take up the culture
OF rape, at least on a small scale. The
culture of the plant seems at present
to be limited to certain sections of the
country, notably around the agricul-
tural colleges and experiment stations
The fact that these localities are con-
stantly enlarging is a proof that rape
mas come to stay as forage plant.

There seems to be a tendency IN
some quarters to look for great rise
in the prices of, wool, and, as con-
sequence, reports come from different
sections Of the country of farmers
holding their wool for better prices.
We do not wish to give advice in this
matter, yet it is fact that all fig
ures that would indicate rise in
prices are uncertain and unsatisfac-
tory. The man that wants to get mon
ey out of his product is always safest
to dispose of that product when he can
get good price and not wait for fan
cy prices. The questions of supply and
demand are not by any means the only
ones that operate to raise or depress
prices. The operations of spectators
are powerful means in determining 1T
what prices goods SELL We hope TO
see a rise in the price of wool, but it
is in no wise certain, that anything ex-
traordinary is going to happen in that
line.

says Farm and Fireside. It is recon-
mended as a tonic for fowls, but is
really a poison, and while it's use once
a week may do no harm, the practice
of using it as a regular tonic will re-
suit in the destruction of the flock.
The free sulphuric acid (oil of vitrioD
attacks all organic substances, and the
fowl IS no exception. In experiments
made, in which a teaspoonful of the
mixture was, added to a gallon of
drinking water, the fowls were appar-
emily improved in appetite for few
days, but gradually declined and fin
ally became weak and debilitated. Ex-
animation Of the fowls that were kill
ed showed the liver to be very large
and soft, while small tumors were no
ticed. The intestines contained red
sores, as though the lining membranes
had been rubbed OF. The throats were:
affected with small tumors, and every
portion Of the bodies seemed affected
in some way. II a bird is healthy it
needs no such tonic, and so far as.
Douglass mixture is n concerned it
should be avoided.

The Brooklyn crew Has Santiago's
Battle Flag.

The Navy department has given
its consent, and Captain Cook has
turned over to the crew of the
Brooklyn the battle flag used in
the great naval fight with Cervera
on July 3. The flag was originally
20 feet long and 10 feet wide, but
the Spanish shells on that memor-
able day lessened its dimensions
considerably. The flag has been
cut into little bits, and every man
who was in the fight has been Civ
en- a Tiece as a memento. Yecman
Arthur Babcock, the youngest
yeoman in the service, and the one
who took the position on the
