Feeding straw.

In some experiments which were
made in feeding straw it was found
that when linseed meal was being fed
they had better results with the straw
than with hay. The linseed meal psck-
ed too closely and was but imperfectly
digested. When cornmeal was given.
better results were obtained from, feed
ing hay than from the straw. Yet the
value Of straw as cattle food when
cut early is so well established that
1t is now thought too valuable to be
used as bedding in stables or yards.
until the cattle have picked out the
best of 1t. and they reject only that

A horse or mare sometimes bears &

Wheat in Corn stubb1e,

1t has become an almost universal
custom to SOW wheat In the corn stub
BILE, but as the results are not always
all thu. could be wished, it is evident
that. III some cases at least, there is
something wrong with the plan. Wheat
growers know we'll that the grain re-
quires soil rich in fertility, and they
also know that corn drains the fertil-
ity of the soil sadly, hence it follows
that the soil must be strong in fertil-
ity to give both the corn and the wheat
crop.
If the soil Is not strong then the only
possible advantage in using the corn
field is in the fact that it has been
well cultivated during the growing sea
son, and consequently is in good shape,
without much labor for the wheat seed.
1t is quite probable that any fairly fer
tile soil plowed early and well prepared
for the seed bed would produce quite
as good results In the wheat crop as the
corn stubble field unless the soil of
the latter was strong in fertility.-In-

Poultry R..ising Pays on a Farm.

Poultry Raising Pays on a Farm.
There are many reasons why poultry
raising can be made profitable on a
farm. One very Important reason is
that all the food necessary to raise
chickens is grown on the farm. ready
for use. A great part of the living OF
chicken can be picked up by himself;
especially Is this true where cattle are
fed extensively. Much of the chick
ems living is made from things that
would otherwise go to waste. The in
sects that might be bothersome indeed
