Oats For Feeding.

Oats for feeding should have an
agreeable smell, clean, smooth and
bright appearance and pleasant taste,
should feel dry, hard and elastic to the
touch and when broken between the
teeth and should be fairly we'll sup
piled with flour, says The National,
.Stockman. The fact that they fulfill
these conditions will show that they
have been well saved, are sufficiently
old, possess due amount of nutriment
and have not suffered from injurious
Influences such as damp and mold, as
would be evident if they were musty
in smell and dull in color. The pres
ence of dust in oats proves that they
have been badly saved and that their
quality has undergone more or less de-
terioration. A shriyeled up condition
is also sign of inferiority. With
plump variety of oats if the grains feel
heavy in the hand, rattle more or less
like shot when poured out, rebound
when they fall on wood or other hard
objects and show no tendency to stick
together, our good opinion of their nu-
tritive value and sound condition will
be still further confirmed. The plump
-er, more rounded and heavier oats are
the higher will be their market value.
Thinness of husk will also enhance the
price as rule. The cost of white oats,
probably on account of their cleaner
and more pleasing appearance, is high
er than that of either black or tawny
oats

stupid Dishonesty.

In speaking of the adulteraton of
dairy products former Governor Hoard
of Wisconsin recently said: ''The stu
pid dishonesty of the American policy
has lost us an immense foreign market.
In 1880 we shipped to England $15,-
100000 worth of cheese. Then we be-
gan to make filled cheese, and in 1899
our export to England was $3.000,000
worth of cheese. Canada has laws
that secure pure foods. She saw her
opportunity and has taken the English
market from us She exported in 1899
ST. 000,0 900 worth of cheese. The fig
ures prove that sound ethics are good
commerce. Fraud results in loss of
trade. What we want to do is to pro
vide against counterfeits and gradual
ly regain our trade. The value of the
dairy products of the United States is
$900000,000 a year. Wisconsin pro
duces 35,000,000 worth. When | was
governor, received many letters from
chambers of commerce abroad from
Bristol and Glasgow, inquiring into the
fraudulent cheese and butter we were
sending abroad The dairy product of
the whole Pacific coast is now going
across the Pacific to the countries of
the far east. Are we going by stupid
dishonesty to lose that market to Aus

Growing Turnips.

At recent farmers institute in New
Brunswick one speaker told how he
succeeded in growing 1000 bgshels per
acre. He took a poor piece of ground
in the fall, and after he had plowed it
he put on 80 tons of manure to the acre
and narrowed it in. He wants no ma
nure plowed in unless it is to be plow-
ed up again in the spring, narrowed
lightly and furrowed two feet apart
about two inches deep. In the fur
rows he strewed $50 pounds of super
phosphate to the acre. He uses two
pounds of specially selected turnip
seed to the acre, When they are two
taches high, he thins them to IS inches
apart. After this he keeps the horse
cultivator running two or three times
week between the rows. AS he
grows them principally as a succulent
winter food for his stock, he sows
early, that they may have time to
grow.

the sweetheart of his youth and the
only child of a wealthy manufacturer.

young barrister made rapid strides
and shortly after the death of the hus-

was accepted, but death soon robbed
him Of his wife. and to her only child

The growth and decay of vegetation
on and in the soil are yet, as in earth's
earliest ages, the best means for fitting
it for mans use. When vegetation de-
Gays, it always gives off carbonic acid
gas which is a more powerful solvent
than water alone. If vegetation con-
tains nitrogen, it is a still more power
full solvent, says The American Guilt
vator, and will make mineral plant
food soluble so that the roots of plants
can take 1t up. All the earlier yegeta-
ton of the world was poor in nitrogen,
but full of carbon absorbed through it's
overcharged with carbonic acid gas
that none but the lowest forms of ami
NAL life was possible. After the ferns
decayed bitter plants, such as the
grains, grasses and clover, could live
and grow. Many a modern farmer who
cannot grow clover finds that if he
sows field with some grain which has
a large seed it will furnish him
enough carbonic acid gas to l1berate
some of the nitrogen and minerals
which the clover needs and which were
already in the soil, but not in form for
clover roots to feed on. In almost ev-
erything the good farmer does to deep

Grating with forces that were at work
long before human life began on this
planet. Even then it was being pre-
pared for something of which neither
reptile life nor the fishes nor the birds
and the four footed beasts could guess
what was to be the end. When man
and woman appeared, created erect,
with their heads raised toward heaven
and not bowed to the earth, looking
downward, he was given the key. The
earth was given to man to work upon
and improve. All other animal life
was given for mans use, each in its
way to accomplish this great work.

was waited on by Chairman Watson OF
the Democratic state committee, in com
pany with ex-Congressman Hinrichsen
and M. #. Dunlap Of Jacksonville, nomi-
nee of the party for state treasurer in
1893, and asked if his informal declina-

urged that it was his duty to the state

he did not look at it in that light, that
there were plenty Of good men who
would make acceptable candidates, and
he must decline.

sHoRT NEWS STORIES.
Confidence of Young KipIing-A PO-
liceman's Generosity-Long-
fellow Was Great.

Julian Ralph tells good story of Kip
ling. When he first went to London,
he set himself up in humble lodgings
and took the copy for a sprint of his
''Plain Tales From the Hills" to the
Macmillians for them to decide wheth-
er they would publish them. Weeks
passed, and they decided to issue the
book. Then in the slow course of time
it came out, but before that the Mac
millians, suspecting that he needed
money, made him an offer of an ad-
vance. He had nothing by this time,
yet he drew himself up proudly and
replied that when the book had been
published if the sales warranted the
payment of royalties he should be
glad to receive them.
The book made a great hit, and re-
porter of The Pail Mall Gazette was
sent to interview the new author The
reporter fancied that he saw in the
surroundings of the young celebrity
certain indubitable signs of poverty
He may have been inclined to patronize
the youth a little and to bid him be of
good cheer, telling him that there were
signs of great strength in his writings.
'Lord"' he exclaimed when he got
away with his interview "Kipling
talked like a man who had the world
for his oyster and had nothing to do
but eat it; not boastfully, like a weak
or vain man, but so confidently and
strongly that it is said that today the
interview reads like a talk with a man
who has done at least as much as Kip
ling has managed to do in all the
years that have passed since his maid
en- bow to the world.'
