Rumors that the strike was ended
were heard in financial circles and in
the closing hour the stock market raj
lied very generally from its early de-

ed for the most part by brokerage
houses with western connections. The
conservative element paid but little
heed, and denials of settlement were
authorized by representatives of the

Many Conferences.
Philadelphia, Oct 14-Numerous
conferences took place in this city
yesterday relative to the coal strike,
the more prominent of the partici-
pants being Presidents Baer and Cas-
satt and Senator Quay. The proceed
ings were not divulged, but it was evil
dent that some new move is contem-
plated by the operators. AS President
Baer was leaving his office he was
asked as to the truth of the report
that the operators contemplated Of
fering the miners an increase. To
this and all other questions he re-
turned his usual answer that he had
nothing to say.
Baer returned to this city from New
York early yesterday morning. He
went to the office Of Mr.. Cassatt and
had a conference with the latter.
After Baer had departed Cassatt pro-
ceeded to the Office Of General Wistar.
president Of the Pennsylvania Anthra-
cite Coal company. While the two
were in conference Senator Quay ar
rived. His visit was brief AS he was
leaving Cassatt's Office he was ques-
toned as to the doings Of the con-
ference but declined to answer. He
Immediately proceeded to Baer's Of
flee, where he remained in conference
for a short time. Mine Superintend-
ent Luther Of the Philadelphia & Read

lengthy conference with Baer in the
afternoon.

beef cattle fed for sale to get the best
results for the money with grain as
follows: Ground cora, sol: oats, $24:
bran. 500: linseed oil meal. $31. May
gluten meal be probably fedg Is there
any danger OF causing blindness In
feeding cottonseed mealw
w. A. Henry gave this answer:
II fat only is desired, use a ration
consisting OF three-fourths cornmeal
and one-fourth bran. II II is desired
not only TO have the animals fat, but
In the finest bloom. then use one-half
cornmeai and one-fourth oats or bran
and one-four1h llnseed oil meal. Gluten
meal and germ oil meal can be sub
stituted for the bran or linseed oil meal
without loss. Cottonseed meal will not
produce blindness In fatteuing cattle

Registered Bulls.
The demand for registered bulls Of

main good for years to come. says Live

Breeders OF registered cattle have IL

they will make steers OF the medium

from good families and subject TO reg.
istration. Nothing will hurt tho regis
tered hull trade so much as selling In.
ferior- animals for breeding purposes.
No matter how good the herd, there
will necessarily be some inferior aui-
mails. and breeders can I'll afford to sell
such except for slaughter. Breeders
should work to create a permanent de-
mand for bulls. and this can only be
accomplished by selling animals whose

Care of stock.
Feed and management have much 60
do with the health as well as thrift
ness 'of stock, says Kansas Farmer
Young and growing animals require
feed which will make bone and muscle
rather than fat. Bedding literally with
some dry material will add greatly to
the comfort OF the animals during the
winter.

PIG FEEDING.


kre@tst OF experiments MAdo &C Ca
sadian Experimental Farm-
The Canadian experimental farm au
thorities have issued report by Pro
fessor Frank T. Shut. chemist at the
farm. upon the character and causes
or soft pork. Softness in pork Is a 80
rious defect. and so the question Is OF
great Importance to the Canadian ba-
con industry. Professor Shut sum-
marizes the results OF his experiments
as follows:
First.-That OF all the grain ratlons
employed that consisting OF equal parts
OF oats. peas and barley gave the iirm-
est pork. IL may further be added that
the Tat was deposited evenly and not
too thickiy and that this ration gave a
very thrifty growth.
Second.--Thet no difference could be
observed In the fTmpess OF the pork
from the preceding ration whether fed
soaked or dry.
Third--That when half the grain ra-
ton consists OF cornmeal the resulting
pork shows an increased percentage OF
olein-in other words, a tendency to
softness.
Fourth.-That In this ration (half
cornmeai, half oats. peas aud barley in
equal parts the feeding OF It boiled
gave slightly higher olein content.
but this IL only apparent when tho av-
erage from the four pens is taken into
consideration,
Flfth.-That, considering the effect
or feeding the ration or oats peas aud
barley during the first period to live
weight OF hundred pounds and corn
meal during the finishing period. COM
pared with the reverse OF this plan
that IL. cora tirst. followed with oats,
peas and barley-we may conclude
that the former gives a flrmer pork.
Sixth.-That In both methods men
toned In the preceding paragraph 40
marked difference was to be observed
from the ration fed dry or previously
soaked, though taking an average of
the two groups on each ration the
dry" feed gave a somewhat higher
olein content
Seventh~As when cornmeal form
ed half the first period ration and the
whole or the second period ration, the
resulting pork was somewhat softer
than from that or any of the rations
already discussed. We conclude that
the longer the period during which the
corn Is fed as large proportion OF the
ration the softer will be the pork.
Eighth.-That beans produce n soft
and inferior pork. The growth AZ the
pigs so fed was poor and miserable
and the deposition OF the fat meager.
Ninth.-That oornmeal fed exclusive
~ as the grain ration. either dry OF
previously soaked. results I'm an ex-
tremely soft tat. the percentage of
olein being considerably higher than
from any other ration tested. The
pork was Of an inferior quality. Here
also we noted the miserable growth OF
the animals. the ration in no sense be-
Ing an economical one.
