Steaming aud Cooking Coarse Food >r.

Steaming aud Cooking Coarse Food n.
In feeding cornstalks the dairy COWS
show that they relish them much better
than when fed dry and hard. There is
| Improvement in the actual nOuri$hny
qualities of the stalks by cooking them,
for the process does not add anything to
them, but the fact that the fodder is
made. more palatable to the, animals is
| sufficient excuse for one adopting this
course. Dry. hard cornStalks are not
| really pleasant food to cows, and many
will eat them only when forced to it from
hunger. But if the stalks are taken and
cut up into small lengths, and then
cooked or steamed and fed to the animals
warm, they have It'll otlor that is refresh
ing. Cows will eat the intlSll thus made
greedily. If one has steam OH the fnrnl
the fodder stalks cain be cooked with the
steam much quicker than by any other
method. If we add Il little g:'in to this
cooked mush the COWS will eat fair moro
than when fed any other way. In feed
ing the stalks in this way the grain food
should not be cut down, as some are in
clined to do, for as said before, nothing
is added to the stalks by cooking them.
1 believe that all good dairy COWS re-
spond quickly to good feeding and little
improvements in the method of preparing
their food. In cold weather they show
the effect Of warm feeding immediately.

Potatoes ard How to Grow Them.


Although the same amount Of nutri
ton costs much more i'll the potato than
in almost any other form, still people
will have it. and on many farmers ia
bleS this forms a large portion of nearly
every meal. Chemists tell us that S2EA

is starch. Still the hardy son of Erin
swings the pick ui,,l handles the shovel
daily OH diet madt ZIP largely of pota
toes Bnt there is one thing greatly in
favor of the potato as a farm crop; it
contains a very large proportion Of wa
ter aud starch. neither having any ma
nurial value, and but very little of the
costly elements which must be main
tanned in all productive soils. and 50 long
as consumers consult taste instead OF
economy i'll the buying OF goods and are
willing to pay such prices for that which
detracts 40 20, little from the soil, the wise
farmer will rrovtde them With all they
want and Of Il duality that will stimulate
the demand. The potato will grow and
produce good crops Oh Il great variety of
soils. providing they arc rich and not too
wet during the growing season. On a
reclaimed muck large crop of smooth,
handsome tubcrs will be grown, but they
will not be of as good quality as those
OIL soils with less humus and more of
the mineral elements, particularly potash.
An ideal potato. soil is light, friable
sandy loan, rich in potash and with plen-
ty Of vegetable mold. Such soil. says
J. s. Woodward in Farmers Institute
Bulletin, Ontario. Can, will not only
give a maximum yield of tubers but they
will be Of the highest quality. and, in a
discriminating market, will sell for sew
eral cents per buslel over those of any
other kind of land. While Il virgin soil
will produce an immense crop with no
manure, there are now but few fields
so rich that 1t will not pay literally tc
apply il generous amount of manure.
1t Is bad practice, however. to apply
stable manure directly to this crop even
though it be put on the previous fall
Such an application, even if it does not
cause them to be schbhy. will cause a
depreciation Of quality The best wa,
is to manure the sod in the fall and win
ter. with no fear Of putting on too much,
plant with corn and follow the next year
with potatoes. On most soils, even with
this preliminary heavy manuring. it will
pay to use from $50 to 1000 pounds per
acre of Il special manure rich in potash
Any man who goes into the growing of
potatoes az Il money crop must expect
to have al, occasional year when he will
be happy it he gets out whole but if he
sticks to the business for FIVE or ten years
he will be all right with good balance

Among the qestions asked by the

The proper answer, of course, and

the class, with one exception, was,
"Given to hospitality"

this was the minister's daughter, who
since she was fifteen years old had been
the head of his house, and the manager
of many a difficult meal.
