and we will get grain enough from one
acre to feed dairy COW one year. In
other words, on good land we can raise
90 bushels per acre, which will weigh
1900 pounds, about the amount ordi-
narily fed to dairy COW in 12 months,
or an average of six pounds per day.
The analysis shows that oats and peas
have nutritive ratio of about one to
i've, OF course this is more or less vari-
able as the two crops mix.
On some land person can SOW more
peas per acre. As a rule, / would say
sow as may peas with the oats as will
stand up and not lodge. Some years
have mixed them half and half with
good results, but cannot depend on it.
AS a basis Of grain ration for a
dairy COW no grain is better or cheaper
than oats and peas. To this cream GIN
ten or cottonseed or linseed meal can be
added in small quantities to suit the
needs of the animal fed. AS soon as
this crop Of oats and peas is taken off
seed to clover. The land will be in a
mellow, loose condition and can be fitted
with a spring tooth harrow without
blowing. Sow on the clover seed eight
quarts to the acre and harrow in light
ly. / seeded this last year the first week
in August and have good results. ]
heartily commend this plan of growing
protein to the dairymen to stop that
everlasting feed bill. When a farmer
draws So worth Of milk to the creamery
and draws back So worth Of grain, he
has to do lot of business to get much
money from his dairy. Let our motto
be to raise more and buy less.

WITH A RANGE : FINDER
But as a Fact, Seldom Is
How 1t Is Done.
WITH A RANGE : FINDER

Washington May Clone Of the first
unwelcome discoveries made by the off,
GERS on the American warsh5ps at the. out
break Of the war with Spain was that the
mechanical range-fnders with which the
American ships were equipped were prac.-
tically useless in an actual engagement.
There were several causes which con
r-buted to bring this about, the ms ur-
ountabe ones being the impenetrs bic
Re IS Of the fog raised by the smoky pow
DEL then in use, and the inability of the
deh cate mechanism of the range finders
TO ithstand the conclusion following the
dlsch arge Of the heavy guns.
Eve since the close Of hosti1itIes vari-
Gus OF 1cers in the navy have been ex-
perime1 ting with Instruments which. il
is hoped viii overcome the limitations Of
the pres. mt apparatus. The majority of
the ships in the American navy are now
equipped with smokeIess powder This
practically Cbviates one Of the difficulties.
The s1ajonty Of the warships in the
American navy at the outbreak of the
Spanish war were equipped with a range
finder inverted and manufa cRIred. by an
officer in the navy A short time before
which this officer was said to- be the head

finders was discontinued.
This did not cause the slightest appre-
hension in the navy. as the officers in
command of the guns had, a lang. tine
previously, given up placing any reliance
on the accuracy Of the results obtained
by their use. The range-fn6er which dur
ing the war was found TOT be the most ac-
curate and satisfactory was a Olne-pounder
rife, placed in the upper fighting top Of
the ship, equipped with military masts,

range and elevation upon the mechanical
! FINGERS.
The range-fnders now in use in our
pavy consist of two instruments much the
same in general appearance as a survey
+ or's transit. Thy are located one or. each
! Of the fighting tops on the vessels SO equip
ped, or in default of the fighting tops, are
placed at any two points of equal height
on the ship. With the keel of the ship as
I base line, the angle of range and eIeva-
ton Of the point of attack is taken be-
tween the two instruments and registered
in feet or yards on a galvanometer This
system is very simple, and works well
enough under favorable conditions and for
short distances. When, however, the
point OF attack is over 800 yards off, the
angles, owing to the shortness of the base
line, become so small as TO destroy all &C
cvracy in the result obtained. On shore,
where the distance between the two in
struments can be heightened out to mile
If necessary, the results are different. The
base line on shipboard, however, is, Of
course, restricted to the distance between
the two ends Of the ship. This is not suffi-
Gent to make It possible TO register with
accuracy the ranges at which most OF the
naval fighting during the Spanish war oc-
Cured
None Of the range-fnders produced by
inventors attempting to overcome the evils
of the present system have as yet been
adapted, and it is not likely that the gov
eminent will be in any hurry TO adopt any.
1t is known, however, that many of the
officers who have witnessed the prelimin-
airy tests of an instrument just devised by
a young engineer in the navy have been
very favorably impressed with the simple
ity, strength, and accuracy Of the apDli
ance.
In its general principal this new range
finder is quite like one now in use in the
French army, except for variations neces-
sary to meet the different conditions Of
marine warfare. In the present device a
cube Of glass about two fe-t long is paint
ed on one side with silhouettes of objects
of various sizes and shapes, from ships to
forts. This glass tube is mounted on
slidlng-scale marked off in yards and feet.
In order to get the range of an object It Is
only necessary for the person using the in
strument to move the glass cube up or
down the scale as the case may be, until
the object to be attacked is the same size
as the corresponding figure on the glass.
The number on the sliding scale opposite
which tse glass cube stopped is the dis
tance of the object from the point Of obser-
walton. The elevation of the point of at
tack is then figured by a comparison of the
distance with the dimensions of the figure
on the cube to which the point of attack
Sas brought to agree. This method of ue-
fo- = 10 hui ic
tainly original, and many naval oTcers say
that it can in time, unquestionably, be de-
veloped into a very ingenious and expedt- !
ious method of arriving at the distance
and height Of the object to be fired upon.
