Kaar Corn % Stock Food.


When fed alone, stock tire Of Kafr
corn much more quickly than they do
Of corn. Some stockmen feed red and
white Kafr corn alternately. This
gives some variety, but only partially
overcomes the defect. When Kafir
corn is fed with feeds rich in protein,
as alfalfa, soy beans, bran, Or oil meal,
animals relish it for any length OF
feeding period. Hogs fattened on Kafir
corn alone get SO that they loathe it,
but fed Kafir corn with either alfalfa
hay, soy beans, or skim milk, they
have a keen appetite for every feed.
This lack of protein (lesh and blood
forming materially and an excess OF
starch and other heating substances
makes Kafir corn an undesirable feed
to be given alone. but combined with
the other drought-resisting feeds-alf-
alta and soy beans-makes a ration
containing all the material in proper
/ proportions needed for meat and milk
production and the growth of young
stock.
Kafir corn is a very constipating
feed, and for this reason, when fed
alone to either horses. cattle, or hogs,
induces an unhealthful condition. Fed
with other constipating feeds. such as
prairie or timothy hays o. corn fodder,
the condition is made worse. On the
other hand, alfalfa and soy beans are
laxative feeds, and either fed with
Kafir corn secures q healthful condi-
ton of the animal, as shown by the
glossy hair, oily skin, good appetite.

mary schedules relating to the cram

What is known as %subsoi1ing is
blowing the earth below the depth at
which it is usually plowed. Where
blowing has been generally but ten
inches deep the soil below is the SUBJ
soil. This may not be a scientific way
of speaking of it, but it is the popular
way. There is a difference between
surface blowing and %subsoiling, in that
the surface soil is turned upside down,
while the subsoil is stirred by. the sub
soiler without being brought to the
surface. Subsoiling makes more room
for the development of the roots, and
enables the plant to extract food and
moisture from a greater area. In adj
dition the capacity for absorbing and
retaining moisture is increased. Dur
ing the heavy fall Of moisture in win
ter and spring the ground thus obtains
and holds for future use a greater sup.
ply.
Our Cheese Exports.-The United
States has been trying hard to get
some better hold of the European and
especially the English market for q
number Of years. There was a time
when the cheesemakers Of the United
States had a big! trade in England, but
It gradually disappeared with the adj
vent in the United States Of the process
Of making filled cheese. For the past
four years the figures for our export
of cheese to Great Britain are as fol-
lows: 1896, $1,000 cwt.: 1897. 631.00 0
cwt.; 1898, 4s5,000 ,cwt.;; 1899. $50. 900
cwt. It. should be remarked that the
cheesemakers Of this country made q
gain last year Of los, 900 cwt. exported
to Great Britain, while the Canadians
lost 5000 cwt. in their export trade.
A Suspicious Accidental Chicago
manufacturer Of oleomargarine shipped
q good deal Of that product into New

cuted and fines aggregating ove 31,-

tanned in the bills Of lading Of Q GER

informs the attorney-general Of New
York that it thought that the cages
were settled and 10 destroyed all the

left without evidence.

HOW THE CLUBS STAND.

The opening OF the baseball season OF
1900 BY the National League-composed OF
the following eight cities. Philadelphia,
Boston. Brooklyn and New York. in the
East. and Pittsburg. St Louis, Chicago,
and Cincinnati, in the West-was accom-
plished in the traditional blaze OF glory.
The attendance at these initial games was
large and satisfying to the magnates, ag-
gregating in the total. as given out in the
reports. 10 1880
The result of the several games. while
not surprising to those in close
touch with the situation. affords no re-
liable suggestion Of how the different cubs
will stand later on in the race. The sea-
son is too young to authorize a reasonable
representation in that direction. The
dropping of four clubs from National
League membership necessarily makes the
present organization more compact and
more evenly divided in playing strength,
and consequently the contests viii be more
interesting and exciting There WILL new
ertheless. be two or three clubs trailing
along al the tail end in the shadows Of
forlorn hope. taking the dust Of their more
formidable rivals.
That the Leagues roseate and confident
anticipation Of a profitable season financial
~ win be realized, there is no evidence Of
doubt. With a stronger club in New York
than the one OF last season, with other
teams OF the organization materially
strengthened. and with current expenses
greatly reduced. the magnates' expecta-
tons of big profits viii doubtless be real
lied.
The game at Boston was a startling ex-
hibition for pennant- winning clubs. TIE
batting was terrific, showing that the
pitchers were not in good coalition. Buck
Freeman inaugurated his introduction into
refined society by making home run. The
game throughout was not al all creditable
tc either team The Brooklyn-N New York
game was a close contest. the champions
winning by a close margin. The surprise
OF the afternoon Was the defeat Of Fits

and very evenly matched in playing
strength, therefore the guessing was in
their favor The weather conditions
throughout the circuit were all that could
Be desired.

CHAMPIONS BEAT THE GIANTS.
The Recognized New Yorks Lose in
a Close Game.

NEW YORK. April 1s.-TweIve thousand
people saw the opening game OF the League
season on the Polo Grounds today. The
champion BrOoklyns met the recognized
Giants and defeated them in an exciting
game by a score OF 3 to =. Carrick was
very effective and the Superbas were lucky
in winning out. Kennedy was like a stone
wall at critical periods. Dahlen played a
great game for the Champions and Glea-
son carried off the fielding honors for the
New Yorks. Every attempt to steal a base
was nipped by MCGUIRE. who caught a great
game for Brooklyn. There was no brass
band nor were there any decorations. and
the opening did not seem like the old time
