Gluten Feed with Grain.

At the Cornell university expert
ment station, a test was made of the
comparative feeding values of ground
wheat and cornmeal, and also of a mix
ture consisting of 26 pounds of gluten
feed and 100 pounds of cornmeal. The
gluten feed and cornmeal mixture was
prepared SO as to have the same nu-
tritive ratio as ground wheat. To each
of the three lots of animals skim milk
was fed alike. The results of the ex-
pertinent are reported in bulletin No.
80. Wheat alone made q somewhat
better showing than cornmeal. 1.-THE
cornmeal lot consumed the least food
and made the least growth, while the
mixed corn and gluten meal gave the
greatest gain and produced cheaper
pork than ground wheat" The ex-
pertinent showed that neither wheat
nor corn, when fed alone, produced the
best results.

COST OF LIBRARY VISITS.
Estimated Expense of Providing fol
Callers ut the Large Reading
Rooms OF Chicago.

Each time anybody goes to the John
Crerar library and gets a book out
the institution spends 6S cents on his
comfort, says the Chicago Tribune.
Again, how many of those who pur-
sue learning at the Newberry library
appreciate the fact that for every time
they are present in the reading-room
of the institution AZ cents must be ex-
pended to cover the cost of theiryisit?
1t is safe to say that few if any of
the thousands of men and women who
enjoy the privileges of either of these
institutions year after year stop to
consider the financial consideration in
volved in their reading and study. And
it is equally as certain that those who
have made it possible for them to en-
joy these educational privileges give
as little thought tc the cost as do the
benefciaries. But there is an old-time
adage that figures won't lie," and thus
it is that by little calculating on pro
rata expense of maintaining the two
libraries a rather interesting feature
of the public library question is pre-
sented.
The fact of the matter is that each
visit to the John Crerar library costs
more than 6S cents, but the excess can
not in justice be charged to the Wis
itors of any one year or period, be-
cause expenditures are incurred in
adding to the facilities of the institu-
ton, thus increasing it's assets and its
value to posterity. The average cost
per year Of maintaining the institution
is about $4,000, which is exclusive of
money expended in securing new
books. labelling and ca:aioging them,
and getting them ready for shelving.
These items are cha=geable to the
assets.
In 1901 people paid IS, 42s visits to the
library and calculating on the basis
CT $4,000 year for maintenance the
pro rata cost is shown to be approx
imately IS cents. However, such items
as binding, periodicals, books, letter.
ing and repairs are not taken into con-
sideration in this problem. If they
were, a total expense of more than
SIS 900 would be shown and the pro
rata cost would be CORRESPONDENCE in
creased.
Students, however, are not disposed
to consider the matter on this basis
for they say the number of persons
who receive the benefit of their scien.
tific study must not be overlooked.
The number of visitors at the New.
berry library during 1901. including the
museum, was 7s,4s3. and the estimated
cost of maintenance was $37, 900, MAX.
ing the per capita expense about Al
| cents. The difference between the
number of visitors at the two institu
tions is explained by the greater mum

MAKING CHEAP MUTTON.
Lamb for an Uncertain Chance
of Rise in Price.

A subscriber asks in somewhat dis.
couraged tone, how to produce mutt
ton at present prices with any profit.
A large part of the secret lies in the
high feeding of young, growing an
finals. The younger the animal the
larger the amount of gain it will make
for the food consumed. Mutton and
beef producers seem not to have
learned this SO generally as pork pro-
ducers. But it is true in greater de-
gree OF mutton than of pork. The lamb
may be brought to mature weight
more quickly than any other animal.
1t is too late now to figure on very
large profits from feeding last springs
lambs. The only class of lambs that
it will pay to feed through the entire
winter is Merinos that will yield eight
pounds of washed or ten pounds of
unwashed wool. They develop slower
than the mutton breeds and the growth
OF wool will almost pay for the feed
needed to keep them growing nicely
and they may be rapidly finished upon
the fresh pasture of May.
But it will take more than half the
feed to grow pure-bred mutton lamb
to 20 pounds at five months old than
1t will to make him weight 90 at ten
months. Lambs with strongly marked
mutton characteristics should be mar
keted before they are six months old.
There is sometimes profit in buying
this class of lambs at seven or eight
months of age cent less per pound
than they will bring when finished for
market, and then pushing them to the
finish as rapidly as possible. This
should be done in 80 or 100 days. A
lamb that has once got poor will not
make nancy for either grower or
feeder.
Another element figuring largely in
determining the measure of profits is
selling when the lambs are finished.
1t does not pay to feed fat lamb for
an uncertain chance of rise in price.
The altogether best rule is to get your
lambs ready for the market in the
shortest possible time and let them go.
If l had flock of lambs now that
were not fat should hold them over
on light grein feeding and finish on
grass. Corn alone is the grain for fat
tening, with clover hay for roughage
with other hay Or fodder, add oil meal
or cotton seed meal.-H. P. Miller, in
Ohio Farmer.

EPILEPSY IN HOGS.
This Disease, Commonly known as
blind StaEEcrs, Readily Yields
to Careful Treatment.

Blind staggers, or, in medical par
lance, epilepsy, in pigs, is quite COM
mon. 1t may be the effect of various
causes. In whatever way brought on,
the condition indicates imperfect nu-
triton of the brain and nervous sys-
tenn. This may be brought about by I'M
duly stimulating food, as constant
feeding upon cornmeal, and confne-
ment. A wet, uncomf ortable bed often
leads to the disease in young pigs. A
course of two close breeding develops
this disease. The symptoms of an at
tack of epilepsy are sometimes diff
ferent in different animals. Some
times the pig stands and froths at the
mouth, then, after a few moments,
staggers and falls as if in fit. After
lying awhile, it RECEIVERS and seems
in it's normal condition again, perhaps
for several days, when symptoms will
occur again, often proving fatal Some
times the pig forces his. nose into a
corner of the pen and stands trem-
bling for few moments, and suddenly
darts around the pen few times and
falls motionless upon the floor. When
symptoms of staggers are developed
in small pigs they should be given a
good dry bed and ten or IL drops of
chloride of iron twice day for a few
days in their food. AS preventive
when pigs show symptoms of disease,
withhold the food mainly and feed sui
phur and powdered charcoal for few
days. Supplying dry, comfortable
quarters and feeding the young pigs
with good supply of milk and occa-
sionally mess of boiled faxseed will
be particularly good, as containing a
large proportion of oleaginous matter.
A few cabbages, grass and oatmeal are
helpful as varied diet. AS in many
other things due regard to their con-
dition that seems to prevent the dis
ease is better than to be obliged to
resort to the various remedies, and
then, perhaps, fail to restore the an
imal to health.-Eastern Exchange.

Wheat m q Hog Food.

Results obtained at the Wisconsin
experiment station show that there is
practically no. difference in the quanti-
ty of pork produced from the same
weight of wheat or corn. In four trials
an average Of 400 pounds of ground
wheat were required to produce 100
pounds of gain in live weight. In two
trials with corn meal 1913 pounds were
required to produce 100 pounds of gain.
When q mixture of equal parts of
wheat and corn was fed, better results
were obtained than when either ,wheat
or corn was fed alone. It required 1876
pounds Of mixed wheat and corn, half
and half, By. weight, to produce 100
pounds Of gain in live weight. i

AN UNFAMILIAR TEXT.
1t Was Truly Astonishing, But 1t Was
F0rccful Illustration of a
Great Truth.

Several years ago there labored in
one of the western villages OF Minneso-
ia preacher who was always in the
habit of selecting his texts from the
Old Testament, and particularly some
portion of the history of Noah. No
matter what the occasion was, he
would always find some parallel Incl
dent from the history of this great
character that would readily serve as
4 text of illustration, says the Star
light Messenger.
At one time he was called upon to
unite the daughter of the village mayor
and a prominent attorney in the holy
bonds of matrimony. Two little bows.
knowing his determination to- give
them a portion of the sacred history
touching Noah's marriage, hit upon
the novel idea of FASTING together two
leaves in the family Bible so as to con-
meet without any apparent break, the
marriage of Noah and the description
of the Ark of the Covenant.
When the noted guests we're all as
sembled and the contracting, parties
with attendants IN their respective
stations the preacher: began the cel-
emory by reading the following text:
'And when Noah was 40 years old he
took unto himself wife, (then turn

in length, 50 cubits in width, and 30 GU.
bits in depth, and within and without
besmeared with pitch" The story
seemed a little strong, but he could not
doubt the Bible, and, after reading it
once more and rejecting moment,
he turned to the startled assemblage
with these remarks: my believes

Price. of Farms Golnr I'm.

Farm lands are in active demand
in the west, and also in the Ohio
valley. It is realized that popula-
ton is increasing at the rate of near
ly million and a half per annum,
and public lands are decreasing an
nually. There are many farms be-
tween the Ohio river and the great
lakes that could not be bought at
500 per acre. An advertisement Of
fers some 40 farms in Ohio, varying
from % to 1900 acres, probably not
in the highest improvement. The
highest price is $50 per acre for FOG
acres of bottom and second bottom,
five miles south of Columbus. The
largest farm is 1900 acres of black

The lowest price is $27.5o for 1,15Q
acres grass land in Union county.
Land will be higher in all sections.
