In fattening old steers it should be
borne in mind that the days of growth
are past in that the steer has fully
matured his bony frame, hence does
not require as great supply of nitro
genous food as would young, growing
beast or dairy COW. So long as he is
getting the food of maintenance he will
neither progress nor retrograde, but to
fatten him it is necessary to provide
him with an abundance of carbonace-
GUS food, of which corn is the greatest
and cheapest example, and to aid the
fattening process should have compare
lively little exercise in comfortable
barn rather than out Of doors in the
cold where food is wasted in raising
the temperature of ice water and
warming up the body against winters
billiards.. 1t is throwing good feed
away to pile such heterogeneous foods
as oats, wheat, rye, etc., into old steers
when corn, oil cake, hay and fodder
will do all that is required. Save the
heterogeneous foods for the growing and
milking beasts and feed the corn to the
older fattening animals.
Tankage Fertilizer.-Tankage from
slaughter houses makes an excellent
fertilizer for grasses, but it should be
applied in the spring rather than the
fall, since it is rich in nitrogen, espe-
cially when the blood is included in the
mixture. The two great essential in
gradients in furnishing the materials
for plant growth are present in such
tankage in marked degree and potash
In very small amount. Where q mixed
fertilizer is wanted, such tankage is
one of the best. When nitrogen is the
chief essential wanting in the growth
Of grasses. it can be supplied in the
form of nitrate OF soda or sulphate of
ammonia. When these are applied it
should be in the spring and not until
growth has begun. From so to 200
pounds per acre are usually ample. and
rather than SOW the whole amount at
once, 1t would be better probably to
SOW half just when growth is Begin
ming and half at later period. saw
from four to six weeks after the first
application.-Ex.

Personalities In Meat.

At the meeting of state dairy and
food departments held in Chicago re-
Gently Mr.. Levi Wells, dairy and food
commissioner of Pennsylvania, exhib-
tied meat preservatives which are used
to both preserve and color. He said:
''The color in this sample is an aniline
dye. The preservative is generally
boracic acid or something of a similar
nature. We have here another coal
tar dye that is extensively sold to
butchers. This is to be used as an out
side color. In purchasing shoulders,
bacon, hams, etc., it is generally sup
posed they have been smoked. That
is not the case at all. A solution OF
this gives the desired color, making
ham have the appearance of being
nicely smoked. I think there are very
few corncobs or hickory timber con-,
sumed in smoking meats. In Pitts
burg we brought number Of cases
against butchers for the use of these
preservatives. They are used mostly
by butchers. The meat hangs about
the shop until it turns dark colored
and is liable to spoil. The butcher
then usually runs it through machine
and cuts it up. He adds some Of this
preservative, which brightens it up
and makes it have an attractive color,
and it will keep indefinitely. There is
no danger of his ever losing any meat.
There has been great deal written
and said about chemically preserved
meats. We had several prosecutions
in Pittsburg, and convictions were OBJ
tanned in all cases brought. The goods
were put up principally in Chicago and
bought and sold by retailers in our
state. Boracic acid was the preserva-
tive, and the expert evidence given at
the trial by physicians and scientists
who had made the matter a study was
that it was an unfit article for food"

How Trusts DO food.

The following article is an editorial
from the St. Louis Republic: Those
who feel inclined to regard trusts as
beneficial to wage earners and consum-
ers are invited to look upon the object
lesson presented in the course Of the
Windowglass Trust.
BY the ukase Of this protection-fat-
tened and republican-fostered monopoly
all the windOwglass factories in the
country, with the exception Of the CO.
operative concerns, were shut down
last Monday. The excepted concerns
produce about one-tenth Of the output
in the United States, and they have
been notified that they will be allowed
to u only until the last week Of June.
BY this arbitrary and cruel action of
the trust l 1900 skilled and other work
men employed in Independent facto-
ries are thrown out Of work, regardless
Of their unpreparedness to face the
hard conditions thus thrust upon them
and their dependents.
Like its commercial congeners, the
Windowglass Trust began It's career
backed by unlimited capital. Its first
step was to reduce the price Of its pro-
duct TO a figure which caused the ruin
Of all Independent concerns that dared
TO compete. Its next move was to
restrict production, throwing thou
sands OF workmen out Of employment
and raising the price Of its wares far
above the margin Of reasonable profit.
1t has reached a state OF trust de-
velopment where it has crushed com
petition utterly and exposed at least
10000 men, women and children, who
have heretofore been supported by the
windowglass industry, to bodily priya-
ton and the ministrations Of charity.
As with the Wlndowglass Trust, so
with all other members Of the trust
brood. Their purpose is the enrich
ment Of their stockholders. Their
success means the robbery Of customers
and the lmpoyerishment and beggary Of
those who earn their bread in the sweat
OF their face. Every consideration Of
self preservation, every dictate Of
philanthropy, every prompting Of
patriotism demand that they be
crushed. The people cannot and will
not look for relief to the party
responsible for the breeding and
propagation Of the trust evil. Upon the
principles, policies and purposes Of the
democracy they must rely for succor
and emancipation.

he Pension Rureau.


The Kansas City Times: Thirty year;
ago General Grant said the demand
upon the government for pensions bad
reached the highest point, and that n
would steadily decrease thereafter.
When the expenditure reached $50.
100000 General Garfield felt con-
strained TO assure congress and the
country that while such e~xiravaganee
might lie justified by the needs of dis
abled soldiers, no excuse whatever
could ever be offered to add one nickel
more to the pension appropriation. In
fact nearly every one Of the republican
leaders of 5 third of . century ago are
on record Is protesting against ever
letting the appropriation pass the $780,
10000 mark, and not = few of them
said Immediately alter the close Of the
ciyal war that the expenditure should
hot exceed SIS, 900, 900 = year.
But IN spite OF all that the pension
liz. has 'gEowrts nearly 1890, 900 and
the ANIMAL expenditure 10 $3.50, zoo, 600.
There are on file right at this time $685.
900 demands for rerating and original
applications, which is an increase of
$4,000 since December, 1897, eighteen
months ago, and all this thirty.four
years after the war closed. Over l6, 900
names have been added TO the list by
the present commissioner, and be is the
worst abused man that has ever been at
the head Of the department for not
adding new names faster and for not
eHPediting The work Of giving those
already on, q re-ratIng,so that they may
draw more money. This statement
may seem Incredible, but il is fully
substaniiated by the Official records OF
the pension bureau.
No M begrudges the pension money
paid to the worthy and deserving. But
it is p%reposterous to say that there are
a quarter Of a million more proper
subjects for government support thirty
four years after the war than con-
stituted the entire numerical strength
Of the army when peace was declared.
