Some Forage Plants for Summer F.sa
The pasturage tests OF a number OF
annual forage crops made in 1888 were
with a few exceptions duplicated in
1900, the mention being to note such
variation as might be induced by
difference in climatic CONDITIONS or in
the individual preference or aversion
Of animals for a certain feed. The
crops tested were rye, oats and peas,
Indian corn, millet, sorghum, Kafir
corn, and eowpeas, as representing the
ANIMALS, also alfalfa and cwnless
brome-grass Records were kept OF the
amount OF pasturage afforded, and the
effect OF the feed upon the production
OIL milk and butter fat.
The following are some average re-
suits for the two years: The crops
giving the largest amounts of pastur-
age were rye and sorghum, Indian corn
anu millet gave less pasturage than
any OF the other annual forage plants.
Alfalfa and awnless brome-grass gave
the least pasturage G. any, the former
affording considerably more than the
latter. II must be borne in mind. how
ever, that the ANIMALS may be pas
tured during on.y certain period OF
each season, while the alfalfa and
brome-grass furnish feed early and
late. Cowpeas and alfalfa increased
most largely the yield of milk and
butter fat Next 10 these came rye,
oats and peas. sorghum. Kafir corn
and awnless brome-grass.

Just now one of the men working on
the clues he has found promulgates the
theory that hard conditions of life with
meager food and care tends TO a pro-

Of food and good surroundings and

The Heat.

Several theories have been adj
yanced to account for the excessive
heat Of July. These theories are
put forward by men who have a
reputation in scientific circles and
are consequently worthy of consid-
Grafton. Some eminent astronomers
who claim that the heat of the sun
is generated by the contraction of its
mass-the condensation of the gases
of which it is composed-say that
the snpcrheated spell was due to the
lrregularity of this contraction, that
It results from one of those rapid
periods of condensation that evolves
an exaggerated amount of heat and
accelerated impulse. In other words
a specially formidable upheaval in
the sun has been going on as a re-
suit of this uncommon condensation.
Others refer the cause of the cx-
IRENE heat to sun spots without ref
erence to the occasion for the spots.
Some lay the cause of the supera-
bundance of heat to the proximity
of Jupiter and Saturn to the earth
and their conjunction and to the fact
that these and the earth are in line
with the sun. The sun has given off
4 great deal Of heat to these two
great planets and the earth is now
receiving more than its wonted
amount of radiation from them.
In contradistinction to the views of
these distinguished astronomers, but
IN no wise invaldating any one of
the theories advanced, the directors
OF the government weather bureau
suggest a common-sense reason for
the exceptional heat in the north
central states-they say it is because
OF the widespread destruction of the
forests.
