Wheat Bran.

The farmer who grows wheat can
make a good profit in selling his wheat
and buying wheat bran to feed out.
says American Cultivator The pound
of wheat will nearly pay for two
pounds of bran, and the bran if sweet
and in good condition is worth more
per pound to feed to cows in milk,
those soon TO calve, TO growing young
stock, sows in pig or for sheep before
lambing and while lambs are with
them than the whole wheat would be.
If 1t is not fattening or heating enough
at other times, the wheat can be sold
and corn bought and still leave a bal
ance in pocket. 1t is much like selling
the butter fat from tile milk and feed
ing calves or pigs on skimmilk which
is better for them and has not SO high
a selling value. If more fat is wanted
a little linseed meal or flaXseed tea

FOR THE FARMER.
1oAoAoAoAoAc ,aseoAoGoaoaoao-

The Maryland experiment station
mas published some experiments with
feeding pigs. Some Of the important
results are:
1t was found that with some rations
the gains on pigs could be produced as
low as 2la cents per pound.
In all the tests where properly COM
pounded rations were used pork was
produced at n profit when the pigs
Were not allowed TO become too old.
The cost of producing a pound OF
pork Increases with the age Of n pig.
The aim should be To produce from
100 to 200 pound pigs at to Z months
Old for the greatest profit
Skimmilk was found TO have n feed
Ing value for pigs equal to fully double
the price charged ut most Of the cream
cries of the state.
Separator skimmilk at one-half cent
per gallon and linsecd and gluten meals
at Sl5 per ton have about the same
value for balancing rations for pig
feed.
Cream or king gluten meal was found
10 be more economical for balancing
rations for pigs than linseed meal.
Ground fodder, such as the new corn
product, was found to be a valuable
addition TO rations for pigs.

THOMAS SETTLE.
This is 4 settler but it will have
no effect on Pritchard unless Mckinley
and Hanna refuse to make the South
ern question, reduction of representa-
ton and like anti-Southern legislation
part of the Republican programme.
SO far as the Democratic party in the
South is concerned. such programme
would solidify the white voters more
than ever, but it would injure the in
dustrial and business progress of the
South. What the South--all its pro-
pressive people-now wish is peace.
New factories are being erected, old
industries are being enlarged, there
is revival in mining and in railroad de-
velopment. A return to the bitter
ness that would follow hostile and Sec
tional legislation would do incalculable
harm, and for that reason all good
Southern men will hope that Mr. Nc
kinley will 'let us have peace"
