Bran Poor Food for Pigs.

We divided twelve pigs into four lots
as evenly as we could. The pigs varied
in weight from forty-fve to fifty pounds.
The first lot of these pigs was fed ra-
ton Of fermented or sour bran; the Sec
ond lot was given untreated BRAN the
third lot had bran and corn meal, and
the fourth lot was fed corn meal. The
pigs were weighed each week to the end
of the experiment. The above ration was
fed FOR nfnety-ntne days, and then all
the lois were fed for twenty-one days
more on corn meal.
During the first period the bran-fed lots
did not gain very we'll They took on fat
and growth very slowly The average
daily gain for the ninety-nine days was
for the fermented bran lot 81 10; uutreat-
ed bran ,ot, 10; bran ana corn meal lo'.
70; and for the corn meal lot los This
was a decided gain in favor OF the corn
meal and showed that scurin2 bran had
no effect on its digestbility and feeding
value.
The second period brought out some
points of interest. When corn meal was
used the entire ration, The lot that had
in the previous period been fed fermented
bran with a daily gain OF but 81 III, now
increased at the rate of Ia lbs each day.
Likewise the lot fed the untreated bran
increased from 10 n as a daily gain 90
LA lbs. The corn and bran lot increased
from rs ID TO SIS 10 daily gain. And the
corn meal lot increased from Les to LIS
lbs daily gain. As long as bran was fed
the pigs, the daily gain and increase was
small. This was the case even whom FED
in connection with corn meal. Suhstan-
tial growth took place during the whole
feeding period with the corn meal feed los.
The experiment clearly shows thai bran
is desirable as a food for pigs under no
circumstances. 1t is TOO coarse and con
tains too much fiber to he probably ana
economically used.-F. W. Burkett.

Reports from England as 10 the last
years crop Of sheep give some indication
as 20 the extent the English depend on the
root crops for the feeding of their sheep
The writer's on the sheep situation of last
year say that one of the difficulties the
sheep men had 90 contend with was the
shortage Of the turnip crop, this shortage
amounting 10 not less than 2ia tons per
acre. In some of the districts it was not
less than seven tons per acre short What
American farmer would figure the urnip
crop as one OF he important factors in
the successful MANAGEMENT Of the flock?
English muGon IS noted for its hne dual
ity' and it IS doubtful if better mutton is
made anywhere. To what extent IL this
due to The extensive use of turnips in
feeding? It seems likely that our own far
mers are negiectng a food that is espe-
cially adapted TO the use Of sheep.

TEE pAINLEssTEss OF DEATH.
Testimony of Men who Have Been
on the Brink.

I From THE Gospel According 10 Darwin"
by DR.. Woods Hutchinson.
There need be no shrinking dread of the
"pangs OF dissolution" the final agony"
for such things have little existence save
in disordered imaginations. ASK any ply
sic!an whose head is siivered over with
gray, and he will tell you that while dis
ease is often painful, death itself is gem
lie, painless, natural, like the fading of
% flower or the falling of a leaf 1t is
literally true that there is a time to die
as well as TO live, and when mat time
comes the event become not only tolera-
bic but, Ike all other natural processes,
desirable; every fiber of our tired worn
ont being commands it,
The overwhelming majority of such rec
ords OF authentic last words" as we pos
sess re-echo the saying of Charles II, on
his deathbed: IF this be dying, nothing
could be easier"
Even in such an extreme case as death
| under the fangs of wilds beasts, all those
who have gone very near the Valley OF
! The Shadow from this cause unite in
| testifying, incredible as il may seem, that
! after the first shock Of the attack there
! is absolutely no sensation of pain.
For instance, Livingstone, upon one oc-
| casion, was pounced upon by lion, which
! relied nm TO the ground; and. making
| his teeth meet in his shoulder dragged
him a considerable distance into the jun
gle before his followers could come 10 bis
assistance. Livingstone asserts most pos
itively that he was perfectly conscious
| of what was happening when he was be
ing carried, could hear the cries of his
friends. and wondered how long it would
take them to reach him, but that he fell,
no pain or fear wha ever, nothing but a
strange, drowsy. dreamy sensation. And
yet his shoulder was SO severely injured
that he never fully recovered the use of
#, and his body was identified after death
by the scars.
Sir Samuel Baker reports d similar ex-
perience with a bear which he had wound
ed The great brute felied him by a
stunning blow from its paw, and he was
ing the bones OF his hand; it continued
the process up his arm, and had almost
reached the shoulder before the rescuing
party could reach him, and yet Sir Sam
uel declares that he felt no pain what
ever and that his only sensation was one
of intense resent ment against the beast
for seeming to enjoy the taste of him so
much. Nor are these by any means ex-
ceptional instances as many other such
reports could be collected. and it is al
most an axiom with surgeons shat the
severer the injury he less the pain Many
a man has received his death-wound and
never known il until his strength began
to foil.

is to store them while still limp SO that

however, thai there is no dew or external
moisture of any kind on the hay when it

that nine-teuths of the farmers VINO have

The way we grow the second crop from

ground in single layer and cover with
pine leaves, or straw thickly. Watch Them

filling in the soil as the tops grow. and
