All natural waters contain greater
or less amount of mineral matter in
solution. Rain water has the smallest
percentage of solid impurities of any,
and therefore it is taken as the stand
ard of soft water.
The terms Of soft and hard, however,
as applied to water are scientifically
considered purely relative.
Water is usually reckoned to be soft"
when 1t contains less than one five-thou-
sandth part of its weight of mineral in

more than one four-thousandth.
Soft water has the property of easily

Stock Feeling in Winter


In many sections there is Il fair supply

ly given; hence. there is likely to lie
more or less Of 1t wasted We have adj
vocated the use of the shredder where
the corn crop will warrant it, as the
economical method, and even where
the shredder cannot be used we would
so back TO the primitive corn cutter
rather than feed corn stalks in the usual
manner. for II the stock can be induced
TO eat all but the ends of the corn stalks,
there Is just so much gained. The uni
salable vegetables and fruits may be
. turned to account in feeding stock il
economy is the watchword. Probably
the worst mistake farmers with stock
to feed and an unusually small quantity
of fodder on hand will make is to at.
tempt to winter the usual number. This
will be far from profitable, and 1t will
be cheaper TO sell the poorest of the
stock, even at low prices, and feed the
rest well, than to divide the food among
them all and have them come out
spring-poor. 1t takes year of good
feeding to bring the sprlng-poor stock
back to the normal condition, and often.
times it cannot be done at all-Indian.

Sugar Rects ami Cattle. Growing
The Standard Cattle Company Of Ne-
braska claims to have been almost
forced into the growing of sugar beets
and the establishment of beet sugar
factory by the failure To make the profit
they desired or We're used to making
by feeding cattle upon corn. They
found that the residuum or pulp left
after the sugar was made from the
beets was "A valuable fattening food for
cattle. To fairly test the matter they
have some 1000 acres in beets, and
have built Il sugar factory at cost of
100000. They find the cost of grow
Ing the bccts to be $12.3S per acre for
labor, it being done by contract at S6.92

find that III Nebraska the bects are not

OF them can be used, as they must be

The pulp must also be preserved in the

the best varieties The crop grown has
been about fifteen tons per acre. but
the sugar contents have not been as
high rs expected The primal object
is the fattening of stock upon the pulp;
but they had hoped to obtain sugar
enough to pay the cost of growing and
manufacture, leaving the cattle feed
as waste product costing nothing.
This point they do not seem to have
reached yet, and there seems to be two
problems to solve before they can reach
1t, or success in one of them may be
enough, the growing of beets at less
cost, or getting higher sugar test from
them. Thus far have beets yielding
about nine per cent of sugar, while in

If one has II good strain of corn it
certainly pays TO save seed from the
last crop. 1t goes without saying that
the ears selected should be the best of
the type. not always as to size of ear,
hut regularity of rows, size of kernels
and general form. These selected ears
should be stored somewhere so that the
rats and mice will get us littlo of it as
possible. If one has considerable barn
room and not many bushels of seed
corn to save 1t is Il good plan to erect n
swing Shelf from the raftcrs. making
the shelf of wire netting or Stats, with
the sides only high, enough to keep the
corn from falling out This will allow
n free circulation of air through the
heap, and vermin are not likely to
reach it. During the latter part of Win
ter IL kernel or two should he taken
from each of fifty or more ears and
tested in a pan of soil set in the kitchen.
Such tests should show from So to 80
per cent of well-germinatcd seeds. If
seed corn can be selected and stored In
some such manner it pays to do it; 9TH
arwise it will be more profitable to buy
new seed in the spring from some relia-
