nm NOT GET THE RIGHT KIND.

The reports sent out from one of the
experiment stations to the effect that
soft corn contains just as much nutri-
ment as sound corn, only that it car
ries 20 per cent more moisture, are
calculated to mislead, for the reason
that there is so much difference in the
quality of soft corn. What is called
soft corn where the writer lives-cOrn
which was in the milk when hit by the
frost-which will be all shriveled up
when dry, is certainly not worth half
as much as good sound corn for feed
ing purposes and is today being sold
by thousands of bushels for less than
half what good corn will bring One
man who is fattening a bull has got
him up to $50 ears of this soft corn per
day. and the old brute wants still more.
The experiment station should have
got hold of some of this sort of corn
and not well filled ears just in the
dough with which to have made their
tests

We are asked to name a ration for
dairy COW kept by town man where
he has all her feed to buy. Give her
what clover hay she will eat, ten pounds
Of corn and oats ground and bran in

meal per day. If there is any milk in
her, this ration will fetch it. Then keep
her warm and comfortable all the time

We are asked if it is true that when
a squirrel gathers walnuts and butter
nuts for his winter store he bites into
certain place in each nut and if he does
this to destroy the germ in such nut
SO that it will not terminate after he
has it in store. We cannot answer this
question, not knowing that the squirrel
had this trick, but if it is so 1t is un-
doubtedly for the purpose indicated.

MUST HAVE HEAT.

There have got to be during its period
of growth just about so many hours Of
an eighty degree temperature to de-
velop and mature crop of corn. 1t
seems to do no good to have the same
number Of units Of heat spread out
over longer period at, say, 65 to 20
degrees, the corn under such condi-
tons simply standing still. This is
why countries with an average high
mean temperature. such as Oregon,
for instance. yet wanting the requisite
number Of days with the mercury at
from 90 to 100. are unable to mature
the corn plant at all. while Iowa. Illi-
nois and other corn states with brief
and altogether tropical summer raise
it in perfection.

that in the running stream. We don't

as men prefer whisky and tobacco to

there is vein of total deprayity and

The horse, as with man, very often
has its days cut short by poor food,
improper care and excessive work.
Eome of the most valuable and serv-
iceable horses we know are over fif-
teen years old. There are plenty of
others twenty and over which still
have lots of work i'm them. while we
once owned and cared for a horse
which was thirty-three years old so full
OF ginger that there was sure to be
trouble if any other horse attempted to
pass him on the road. Perhaps the
principal cause of the early breakdown
of many work horses is overwork be-
fore they are six years old. Some men
use no sense in this matter and de-
mand full hard days work from the
three and four year old colts.

One of the incest ladies of our ac-
quaintance, who wears three eight dol
lar plumes on her hat and rustles "a
black silk dress up the church aisle on
Sunday, milks ten cows night and
morning, and she takes care of the
milk and makes the butter from a dali
ry Of twenty three cows and gets .
cents above the top of the market for
every pound of butter she has to sell.
The reason she is able TO have such
nice feathers and such good dress is
because she milks these cows and does
this work. She is withal a social lead
er in her little community and the best
of homemakers. We do not know of
any lady unmarried of this sort.

and trap every rabbit we possibly can,
and then those which we can neither
trap nor shoot we are going to feed so

bark the trees We shall, Furthermore,
do as we did last winter-rub the trunks
