Terrible Power of lightning.

During a thunderstorm near Con-
sett, in the North Durham district,
England, the lightning struck a pas
ture field and dug a trench varying
from three feet to three feet six
inches deep, and six inches to seven
inches wide across the field for a
distance of dozen feet. The solid
clay was scattered in all directions,
portions thereof being found lying
over 20 yards away, while the turf
had been cut up as clean as if the
work had been done by sharp i'm
plement. One grass sod, measuring
about six feet long and nine inches in
width, was laid on the opposite side
of the fence in another field.-N. Y.

Walter Camp and the other members
of the collegiate football rules COM
mittee have been busy for some time re-
vising the football rules in anticipation
of the coming season. The committee
has completed its work and the revised
rules are now in the hands of the
printer.
Radical changes have been made in
several of the rules. The tendency has
been to make the game more scientific,
stop unsportsmanlike conduct and to
take away the opportunities inferior
teams have had to gain time over their
superiors. The committee has changed
the rule by which team lost the ball
for offside play. Hereafter the Of
tenders will be penalized ten yards and
the ball will remain in possession of the
side having it before the foul was made.
An important change is due to the
outcome of last years Harvard-Yale
game, when Yale resurrected the old
2o-yard rule in order to hold the ball
when near Harvard's goal. Rather
than give up the ball Yale dropped back
20 yards and kept the ball. The rule
has been changed to read: "a team
cannot take advantage of this rule
second time unless the ball has ex'
changed possession after the team u.s.
ing the 2O-yard rule had first taken adj
vantage of the rule"
Princeton's movements last year In
the Yale-Princeton game of the side
line coaching rules led to the imposing
of ten-yard penalty for coaching
from the side lines. Any unfair act
committed by a player or any sympa-
thizer may also be punished by ten
yard penalty.
With the exception of these four
changes the rules of 1899 will prevail
during the coming season.

Winter Protection Of Plants.

1t should be we'll known to advanced
gardeners by this time that light is as
great an agent in destruction by frost
as frost alone. But little practical sd-
vantage has been taken of this know
ledge, except by gardening folk gener-
ally, of what the advanced gardeners
know. The latter shades his green
house when he finds the plants frozen,
and he plants rhododendrons and SINH.
lar plants where the sun does not strike
them in frosty weather, il he should
have any choice in the selection OF a
site. In the extra cold region OF the
Northwest the advanced gardener
shades the trunks of his fruit trees by
placing boards, fastened together like
tree boxes, up against them. And thus
the trees escape sunscald arising from
being under the sunlight, and similar
troubles.
Surely orange growers in Florida
might profit by this experience of their
Northern brethren. 1t would be anot
very expensive thing to make an arbor of
lath over an orange grove, the lath be-
ing an inch or 30 apart, With such a
partial shade the plants would probably
endure ten or twelve spasdomic de-
grees of frost without injury and the
shade in summer would doubtless be
all the better for the trees, at least the
trunks of the trees might be boxed and
even filled with earth if the weight
could be supported. II the tops should
suffer from the frost, the strong trunks
would sooner recover than when the
whole tree was killed to the ground

estimated. Such careful weighing of
food cor sumed is too expensive for the
ordinary farmer, aud is usually left for
the experiment station. Unless COM
piled with care any guess OF value is
only misleading and is not to be at
tempted. 1t has been found that where
animals can be fed in loose boxes with
plenty of room to move about they do
better and make faster gains in weight
than when tied up. During tie period
in which the animals are housed, they
are out once every day for water,
which 10 pumped by windmill into a
tank in the yard. If plenty of roots
ara fed, it is found that feeding cattle
will hardly touch water. Salt is pro-
vided, and may be fed with food as
well as put within reach. A feeding
steer will require from three and one
half to four one-half ounces of salt per
day, while one ounce is sufficient for a
horse of the same weight. The brush
aud curry comb are very useful, and
while always short of straw for bedding
purposes, the cattle are much the bet
ter for careful cleaning and good groom
ing, and it pays to have it done as fire.

Wintering Young Cattle.

The wintering Of yearlings has to be
carefully done. They need close atten-
ton and good care. AT no time in the
animals life may they be more easily
spoiled than when taken in for the first
winter feeding. They need rather
more nourishing feed than older ami
mails. They may also be changing
teeth during the winter, and that has 10
be watched and suitable proviaion
made for well cut food. The food for
the whole stock is cut and mixed. Corn
cut moderately green, shocked and
house when dry enough is used for part
of the ration, while chaff or cut
straw makes up the coarse food. This
is fed twice day at six in the morn
ing and five at night. At noon ration of
roots is given, and these are sliced only
for the animals teething. With the
coarse fodder is the corn at least fairly
well matured. For the yearlings, in
stead of the straw, cut rye or clover hay
is substituted twice week, or oftener
as may be required. AS the winter adj
vances the supply of dried corn be-
comes exhausted and silage is subst.-
tuted for that part Of the ration, and
with it used a small feed of chopped
oats two parts, bran or shorts two parts,
and chopped peas one part. This is
sprinkled upon the coarse fodder at the
afternoon feed. As the winter adj
Vances ard spring time comes nearer,
the roots, which have been white or
yellow turDips in the fall, and swedes
by about Christmas time, merge into
mangels, which are best in the spring
time. The roots usually last till there
is good grazing, which will be from the
10th to the 18th of May.
During the summer if pasture is
bare, care is taken to supplement with
other feed, or such soiling crops as
have already been mentioned in the
feeding of the younger stock. The fall
Ieedlng OF yearllngs applies 10 tnose
two years old, except that if these are
to be furnished for beef in the fall,
they are given the best of the pasture
and more liberal allowance of chopped
feed. They are put into the stables
earlier than the younger cattle, and fed
more literally of chopped grains and
oil cake. The grains grown on the
farm are fast consumed as being the
most economical, but if more be
needed, oil cake is an excellent finish
ing food. In the mixed grain ration as
feeding time advances the chopped
oats may be increased as well as the
chopped peas, and the bran reduced.
So much has 10 be left to the careful
feeder, who has to treat each animal
according to its special needs, that I'M
less o careful weighing is made of the
food consumed the expense can only be

AGRICULTURAL.
Farm Labor In Great Britain,

The returns of agricultural wages for
series of years shows that during the
last half century they have been steadi-
ly rising. On the basis of number of
returns from farmers and others whose
families have occupied farm for a
long period of time, and who have also
kept and preserved accurate account
books, it appears that the weekly cash
wages of ordinary agricultural laborers
were as per cent. higher in 1899 than
1850. The information as to the rate
OF wages paid during the last five years
is of much more complete and de-
tailed character than for earlier years.
From 1896 to 1900 there has been a
progressive upward movement in Eng
land, Wales ard Scotland. In Ireland
rural wages have not altered much DUR
ing the last ten years, but such changes
as have taken place have been in an up
ward direction.
The rise in pay in England, Wales
and Scotland during recent years is at
tributed by employers to the scarcity
of labor. The more skilled and edu-
Gated men prefer to seek employment
in other industries. Farmers in Eng
land state that there is special difficulty
in getting young men to take charge of
animals, partly due, it is said, to their
objection to Sunday work. Employ
ers of labor have complained for many
years of the difficulty of keeping the
younger and more efficient men on the
land, but never has the complaint been
30 general as at the present time. The
calling out of the reserves and the mi
litia toward the end of 1899 and in
1900 has accentuated the scarcity in
many districts. The wages of men in
charge of animals are considered sep
arately from those of ordinary agricul-
tural laborers. Such men have great
er responsibilities and work longer
hours than ordinary farm hands. They
also have Sunday work, and are liable
to be called up at any time when their
animals are i'll. They are, therefore,
paid somewhat more highly than their
fellows, and their term of engagement
lie generally ger.-London Standard.
