The German press is up in. arms
against the new Italian minister of
public instruction, Sig. Gallo, who
dared to abolish at the intermediate
school the instruction in the German
language, which his predecessor, Bac-

Switzerland, which are becoming
closer from year to year, make it

Cow peas give rich grazing from
July until October, and should always
be grown for use during the late sum-
mer and early fall. Being very rich
in protein, they make an excellent
food for growing animals, though not
desirable as the exclusive feed m the
final fattening, as the fat meat pro-
duced by them is tec soft and oily
to be of the highest value. Lots for
early use may be sown on the ground
from which artichokes are harvested,
and win be ready for use in two
months from planting. For later use
some of the quick-growing sort may
be planted on the vetch ground, or,
if the ranker-growing and later-ma-
turing sorts are sown on the arti-
choke ground or elsewhere, they will
make an immense growth of forage
for use in September and October.
Usually, however, it is better to SOW
the peas for late grazing in the corn
field, than to use land for that pur-
pose alore. With the earlier ripen-
ing varie lies of peas and sorghum
the hogs will be carried up to the be-
ginning of cool weather without trou-
ble--Farmers' Review.

EXPERIENCE WITH LAMBS.


After working with sheep 20 years
a writer concludes that to raise early
lambs for market one must begin with
cir grandparents selecting the
best ewes each year until the desired
number is obtained, and breeding from
well-bred and well-developed ram
not over five years old. Give the ewes
good care before lambing, providing
dry and warm cover, plenty of good
hay, with little grain or roots, be-
ing always sure that they get plenty
of good water every day.
BY careful watching, the ewes about
to lamb can separated from the re-
mainder of the flock and penned by
themselves. Extra care can then be
given, increasing their food and per-
haps separating some of the weaker
ones until the lambs are strong
enough to shift somewhat for them
selves. In case of twins, experience
teaches that it is best to leave only
one for the mother to care for, unless
she is in unusually good mixer. When
the lambs are about two weeks old
a creep or pen should be opened for
them. This is done by leaving one or
more openings large enough to admit
the lambs, but not the sheep. In the
creep or pen place trough high
enough so the lambs can not get into
it and all have free access to it. Keep
in the trough neal or grain of some
kind which the lambs seem to like
best. Potatoes or roots cut fine and
covered with meal will soon be eaten
by the older lambs
AS to the best feed, growers differ.
Some prefer oats, others feeding
middlings or meal. 1 suggest q va
riety. The lambs will then eat what
they like best. Do not keep the
lambs too closely confined, but give
them plenty of room possible. In this
as well as other enterprises good
Judgment is necessary, and success
awaits only those who study the dis
position and habits of both sheep and
lambs.--Orange Judd Farmer.

just as essential as it is to the corn
plant. Neither corn nor pork can be
successfully produced without plen-
ty of sunshine. In this latitude and
further north tnis sunshine in winter
will have to be brought into the pens
through glass, but further south un-
der normal conditions it is only nec-
essary to face the pen to the south;

permit the rays OF the sun to shine
upon the beds of the pigs at the ex-
treme rear end of the pen in the win
ter season and also to give shade in
that portion in summer.
2. The lattice construction between
the pens at the ends and rear admit
of free circulation of air in warm
weather.
3. The location of the manure pit

FARMER PLANTER.
THE BELGIAN HARE FAD.


In response to requests for descrip-
tion of and information on the Bel
gian hare ! hand you the following,
which consider fair representation
of the real food article--the show
stock varying in color and size ac-
cording to fancy: One year old, medi-
um condition, weight about nine
pounds; color, red brown, with ends
of hairs ticked with black occasional
ly, except under part of the body;
which is usually much lighter; ears
slightly lighter than main portion of
body, laced with q black border, a
fne-looking fellow indeed. They are
the cleanest of all animals knownS
there is no smell about their pens and
they are entirely free from the pare
sites SO common to the ordinary wild
rabbit. Their flesh remains firm,
solid and sweet the year round, which
is not the case with the wild species.
They are very docile and easily
handled; one can pick them up any
where. Grasping them firmly by the
skin Immediately back of the shoul-
ders, one can carry them without a
struggle, but should one attempt to
handle them otherwise he is almost
sure to get scratched and possibly
bitten. They are very quiet in their
pens, making no noise except an occa-
sional stamping of their hind feet at
portending danger.
Is the Belgian hare passing fad?
This is question that is asked many
times, ard l would like to state my
reasons for believing most decidedly
the contrary. While it would seem
to me that most everyone has heard
something of the good bunnies, yet
to many they are entirely new, for
often am asked these questions:
Are they good to eat? Are the skins
and fur of any value? What does it
cost to raise them? etc. If they were
only fair to look upon our hopes
would be lighted. Not only is their
meat choice and edible the year
round, but their skins and fur enter
largely into the manufacture Of
gloves, capes, collarettes, muffs and
kindred articles, fact that few peo-
pie were aware of until recent styles
demanded the natural colors. Bel
gian brown, rufus red and silver
grays, thereby throwing off the de-
ception there is in foreign and high
sounding names. Considering the fact
that the United States has about TO-
100000 of people to clothe and feed.
and with an increasing demand from
foreign countries for our meat prod
ucts, there Vill naturally be a tenden-
cy to put the Belgian hare industry
on a solid basis with the meat and
poultry business of the country. Al
ready large number of poultry
raisers are combining the Belgian
hare industry business with profitable
results, while farmers are beginning
to realize that there is more money
to be made at this than with poultry,
the cost of productions h.ink much
less.
With clover hay at eight dollars n
ton, sorghum hay six dollars, oats,
IS cents a bushel, and bran Is cents {,
hundred weight, their meat can be
produced at two cents per pound, and
it is now bringing from II to 20 cents
a pound dressed.--,J. I. Atkinson, in
