New York. Jan. ia cable to the

The arrival of Lord Roberts ard Lord
Kitchener at Capt Town was anrounc-
ed at a late hour last night. They will
be allowed to get to work without un-
necessary demonstrations of public
welcome.

the enemy with great difficulty. Roll

troops this month,
The disappointmants are endured by
the Englishmen with fortitude and
grim stocism, but the utter lack Of
trustworthy news from Buffers army

Impotence and irritdbili.y Three
days have passed in silence, II not IN

been more trying to the English tenn

Natal, when every man has felt in his
heart that there Yves 10 time to lose
and that the army of over 10000 Brit
ish soldiers ought to- br moving with
untiring energy AMI irresistible force
across the Tugela for the deliveranra
of Whites heroic Sa"risun. What is
evident to all observers is that the loss,
of Ladysmith without a second attempt
of the relieving army To- cross the Tu-
gela would be more discreditable tnan
a fresh reverse of Buffers forces and
that public confidence in the Govern
ment would be fatill! impaired. John
Bulls, indeed, in a bad temper and

source. What he wants is news from
the front, and under the censorship he
gets little or nothing.
The casualty lists from LaIysn,itn
printed at the War Onica yesterday af-
ternoon did not include the killed and
wounded in Saturdays battle, but
helped to disclose the conditions UNI
der which the successful stand was
made. The number of deaths from en-.
teric fever and dysentery during the
five days preceding tho battle was
twenty-three. During the twenty-four
hours ending on the morning of the
battle there were ten deaths from dis
ease. The casualties from she'll fire
had been light in comparison with the
steady mortality from fever. The gar
rison was depressed by long confine'
ment and enfeebled by sickness when
called upon to fight seventeen hours
for the retention of its redoubts and
hospitals.

Another matter which concerns the

Early Economiuing with Feed.

Early in the fall 1t becomes neces-
sary to take stock of The food for the
cattle, dairy cows, swine or sheep
No man can go ahead and feed reck-
lessly even thus early in the season
| well remember one farmer who fed
literally and recklessly right through
the fall months, who gave as his eX-
cuse that he wanted to keep his stock
growing just the same as in summer
Well, that was all right 4 he had food
enough on hand to carry him along,
but by the time winter arrived he was
faced by a problem of selling off his
stock or buying food at high prices
There was no other alternative. He
had far more stock to begin with than
he should have had for the amount of
feed on hand, and then his reckless
waste in feeding had made matters
worse.
That sort of mlsmanagcment Is Of
ten carried on in lesser degree. and
animals are forced on the market at II
loss I'm order to save the food or the
necessity of buying more. 1t is not
such n difficult matter for man to
figure out early In the fall how much
stock he can winter on given amount
of food. II he has sufficient of the
latter to carry his stock along he Is
justified in going ahead and feeding
literally, but if he cannot winter them
on whu. he has 1t Is better to weed out
the ilocks now. Let this be the first
economy practiced. Before the stock
Is taken from the pastures sell the
poorest, o" those the least likely to
make profitable returns. Beyond this
| would advise no one to sell at ALL
Simply reduce the stock TO the limits
necessary for wlntering them on the
food at hand. The amount of food
should be sufficient for good liberal
feedns and varied enough TO satisfy
the appeti:es of the animals. They do
so much better on "aried diet that II
pays to have this ready for them at
all times. Especially do we want to
look out for the winter food OF all
farm stock because we are coming
more TO realize that il is winter farm
Ing that pays the best. Only intelll-
gent, progressive and active farmers
can engage successfully in winter
dairying, poultry raising and the pro-
duction of winter lambs. The great
mass of farmers will stick to summer
farming at the season of the year
when difficulties are the greatest. 1t
Is by overcoming these greater difficult
ties that he makes his larger profts.--

Coin DIsnppenrs.

Here is new and pretty trick.
which Is said to have originated in
Germany: 1t consists in causing a coin
placed under a wineglass, the whole
covered with paper cone, to disap-
pear and return as often as desired.
Take wineglass, and. having placed
little mucilage all around its edge.
turn 1t over on a sheet of white paper.
and when dry cut away the paper close
to the glass. Stand the glass mouth
downward on a sheet of paper similar
to that covering the mouth of tho
glass, make a paper cone to At over
the glass, and you are ready to aston
ish your friends. Borrow a penny and
lay it on the large sheet of paper by
the side of the winegless; cover the
glass with the paper cone, and place
the whole over the coin. Command
the penny to disappear. and on remov-
ing the cone it will appear to have
Dbeyed your command. as the paper
over the mouth of the glass effectually
conceals it. To cause 1t to reappear.
you replace the cone and carry away
the glass under 1t.

Dairy Evolution.

The latest development in the dairy
Industry. and one that has attracted
the most attention, probably. is dairy
bacteriology. II Is only few years
since that the study OF bacteriology
has been sufficiently scientific to reach
milk and its production. To-day we
find that the man who is up In his
business is the dairyman who fully
understands bacteria. where they
come from. how they go and how to
determine the good from the bad. The
man who has the best knowledge
along that line is the man who Is hest

the proper shape.
Marketing dairy products has been
almost entirely revolutionlzed within
the last twenty-five years. The meth
DDS of transportation have improved.
methods of packing, packages and
handling in every way have been so
radically changed that the handler of

or 200 pounds of butter per wear fifty
years ago was considered fairly good

Have Your Hogs OF Good shane.

The shape and style of your hogs
regulates, to certain extent. the price
that you will receive for them in the
market so the hog raiser should not
overlook this matter. but breed his
hogs, as far as he can SO that they
Will be shaped in a manner that suits
the buyer and consumer. and It is only
the farmer who does this that can look
for "top-notch" prices.
There is one class of hogs that have
rather good hind quarters, hut they
are low in front ana generally have Il
poor heart. Such hogs get of their
feed very easily. cannot stand heavy
feeding, and are generally found with
weak constitution which makes them
liable to disease.
Another Improbable class Of hogs is
n fine -bOnod animal or what we some.
times call short, blocky chunk. "
Some feeders like this type. as they
are easily fattcned. but as rule they
will not eat sufficient food to make
profitable gains.
Generally speaking, the hogs that
make the largest gains and do the best
are those that are well-boned we'll
developed fore and hind quarters,
large through the heart. and with
legs of far lcAgth. Such hog is the
one the farmer should breed for they
always find good market even at
times when there is practically no
market at all for hogs OF poorer

Value Of Experimenting.

We have often urged on our readers
to experiment on a small scale in the
various lines of their work That
gestion we have not the slightest
doubt. Some of them have been test
ing varieties of fruits and vegetables
for several successive years. Others
have only recently begun such expert
mcnts. And many who have not chosen
these speclnltles have been testing diff
fercnt kinds of fertilzing material,
different breeds of live stock, various
methods of feeding. or have been
working eXperimentally In some of the
other divisions or subdivisions of farm
business. Efforts of this kind. whether
Immediately successful or not, are al
ways useful to the man by whom they
are made. To the young farmer they
are especially valuable. This not only
on account of what is learned directly
from their results, but also because
the tendency of such work is to make
the worker more thoughtful and care
ful than he otherwise would be.
We ceel impelled TO give this note
OF encouragement, because in some
sections of considerable area the sea
son that is now nearing its close has
been very unfavorable for crops and
consequently the results of many of
the tests made in these localities will
be of no positive value. though indi-
rectly they may have some significance.
Such is the case with some of the eX-
periments undertaken by the writer of
this paragraph. Though disappointing,
the failures of this kind should not
lead to Encouragement. There are
other seasons coming, and it is prob
able that more satisfactory results
may then be obtained 1t is certain
