How - Prime Lot OF Shorthorns Were
Eattened For Market.

The three cars of cattle sold on the
Chicago market at SO. 35, averaging

weight and selling at the same price for

They were grade Shorthorns 3 years old
last spring. The latter part of NOvem-
Der, 1896, | commenced to feed them a
little shock corn in order to get them in
good shape to turn into stalkfelds. AS
soon as they had gathered the cream Of
the stalks-which was in about 80 days
I gave them a light feed of snapped
corn once g day until they had gathered
all the rOughneSs from the stalks. l then
brought them home and fed them q
light feed of shock corn morning and
night. They also had plenty of good
blue grass and just corn enough to keep
them growing a little. They were fed
this way until the 1st of April hav-
ing the best of care at all times and
never wanting for a good bed or shelter
Tanks always supplied with water are
piped through my feed yards. After the
cattle go into winter quarters I always
give the fodder i'll managers, and must
say I think shock corn the best feed that
was ever fed to steer. The 1st Of
April diminished the shock corn lit
tie and substituted huslzed corn and
shcaf oats. BY the 1st of May, when
they were turned on grass, they were
eating peck of huslzed corn each per
day broken once. They were fed this
amount until July l. Their feed was
thcn gradually raised TO one-third of
lushel, and at no time did they have
over that amount, as 1 like to have
steers cat their feed up clean and keep
their appetite Il little sharp. The mid

\ sheep raiser who knows his bust
ness takes the following means TO get
ewes to exercise themselves sufficiently
before lambing time: He let's the breed
ing ewes into a wood pasture in the
morning Oh pleasant days all winter.
Then he takes a sack Of sheIled corn On
his back and walks quickly about the
pasture himself, the ewes tum bling
over one another to get close to him and
follow him. AS he goes he takes hand
falls of the corn and throws it about
here and there for the animals to scTarn-
bic for and eat. They thus are made to
run about actively, and the result is fine
and vigorous lambs.
Do not feed ewes too much wheat

ONE TRAIT OF YANKEE INVENTION
Biggest Things in America Are the
Little Things, Says n Frenchman.

From Invention.
A French engineer who has been on a
tour of inspection in the state was not
impressed by the big things of the coun-
try. Il shall report to my government"
says he, that the biggest things in Amer
lea are the little things. The French peo-
pie are experts in domestic economy, and
live comfortably by saving what average
families In the states throw away. But
Americans are. on the other hand, experts
in industrial economy. They make money
by saving wastage in business and lose
some of it by Wastage in domestic econ
omy The attention paid to small details
in big works is amazing to me: l have
visited some establishments where l be-
IeYe that the profits are made not in the
manufacture proper, but in the saving of
materials and labor by close attention to
details that are with us unconsidered
trifes. For example, l. saw a little grind
stone in opera ton at a big works auto
maticaliy sharpening lathe and planer
tools This machine costs probably as
much as 100 of our ordinary grindStones
cost, but l see that it automatically
grinds all the tools for 500 hgh-prced me-
chanlcs, and it only works a few hours
each day. The skilled mechanics in our
country frequently stop their regular work
to grind their own tools, and then do it
imperfectly. In the states tools are all &C
curate.y ground to the best shape by the
machine, so that they do more and better
work on this account in a given time l
believe that that machine has brains-the
brains of the inventor-and it has no doubt
revolutiOnzed work of this kind in Ameri-
can machine shops. This is but one case
out of many that l have noted"

characteristic of American inventive ge-
