The British Embassy.

'The British Ambassador and Lady Herbert. who are now in New York, will return in time to open the embassay to society with a housewarming, which, it Is understood, will be given on Thanks giving Day." said Washington man at the Morris.
 "The interior of the red brick mansion which the British government built there years ago Is so completely changed that it scarcely seems possible that the light, airy rooms. with their color scheme of pink, cream and nile green, combined with gilt traceries, can be the same som bre apartments of brown woodwork and mulberry walls that society knew so well during the late Lord Pauncefote's resi- dence in Washington.
 "The British government sent the royal architect to direct the wholesale modelling of its Washington property. With the furnishings sent from London and those added by the ambassador and Lady Herbert, the house will be as ele- gant as 1t can be made by money and arr tistic taste combined. In addition to the life-size portrait of Queen Victoria In her coronation robes, which has always hung on the wall of the first landing facing the entrance. there will be paint ing of King Edward in his royal robes. The table appointments of the embassy include a service which once belonged to George ", and which Lord Paunce- fote used on all state occasions, gen. erally with a centrepiece of American beauty roses. At other times the table was adorned with old family silver and English blossoms preferably Lord Pauncefote's favorite flower. the prim- rose.
 "Sir Michael Herbert has two children, both sons. Sidney, the elder is 1s years old, and was one of King Edwards pages at the coronation. He did not accompany his father to this country, but Is con- tinuing his studies at Harrow. Michael Is about the age of Kermit Roosevelt. and is attending school in Washington"

The Feeding of Horses

To understand the principles of economical feeding, the horse must be considered as machine out of which it is desired to obtain the greatest amount of work at the smallest eX- ipense and the least risk. To meet these requirements the food must be whole some, abundant, clean and sweet, the hours of feeding regular, and the diff ferent kinds of food given in their proper order. Water first, then hay followed by grain. Food to be digested requires length of time in the stom- ach in proportion to the amount of ni- trogen it contains, thus grain needs to stay there longer than hay, and since the stomach of the horse is not large enough to hold all the hay and grain of an ordinary feeding, it is best to give the hay before the grain. If the grain is taken first, it is pushed out of the stomach into the intestines be- fore it has been properly acted upon by the gastric juice, rendering diges- tion incomplete, and waste of food.
 When hay is given first 1t passes out of the stomach and is digested in the intestines, and coecum leaving room for the grain in the stomach, The anl- nal should invariably be watered be- fore feeding, it is quickly absorbed, rendering the digestive organs in. a proper condition to receive the drier

StabIIns Cows

The cows in Southern California have not increased in their flow of milk, as is usually the case at this season of the year and this has made it very scarce at time when the de- mand is greatest.
 The creameries have been short all winter and the demand for city milk has been larger than usual. No doubt the scarcity of green feed is largely responsible for this. but the long cold spell has had much to do with, it. Very little attention is paid to the stabling of cows or even providing a shed under which they can get in times of rain or heavy fogs. Cold and damp ress require feed to keep up the heat necessary for the comfort of the COW and if no extra heating food is given there is a corresponding loss of milk.
 It is shown by those who have stables that when cows are kept in during the night or day they generally shrink in their milk. This is prob ably from the fact that they have never been trained to stay in stables when confined any longer they fret and worry, which causes loss of milk.
 If the young cows were accustomed to stables when broken to milk no doubt they would get used to it and not feel out of place when kept In longer.
 We believe if the shrlnkage of milk could be saved by keeping the cows cut of the cold and wet it would pay for the sheds many times over.
 If such leaks could be stopped it would add materially to the profits of the business. .-Cultivator

Alfalfa For the Hog

The most satisfactory animal for turning alfalfa into cash is the hog, according to MT. H. D. Watson, large alfalfa farmer of Kearney, Nebraska, who has made a great success as a stock raiser To get best results he finds that the hog, while pasturing on alfalfa, should be fed, in addition, some flesh forming grain so as to produce rapid growth. Under such feeding a spring hog should reach 200 to 300 pounds when marketed in the fall. When fattening hogs he feeds them alfalfa hay, and says hog will leave corn and go to the alfalfa if in reach.
 Hog raising and dairying are so in separable that the hog and COW, ac- cording to MT. Watson's experience, find themselves at home in the alfalfa field, turning the crop into coin for their owners. The Coast still secures a great proportion of the pork products consumed in the East, and much of the money that goes there for it should go to our own fathers, if MT. Wat sons experience in raising hogs on alfalfa is followed.

Unsishtly Fruit Trees

The traveller over this portion Of the State is surprised at the number or dilapdated deciduous fruit trees In view. The condition of the citrus or chards is usually so much superior to that of the other class of fruits, that the contrast is most discouraging. Now is the time to improve this state of affairs. The trouble is usually Of long standing-the accumulation Of fungus plants, scale and dirt. With the trees thus handicapped, it is impossi- ble for them to produce fair crop of fruit, no matter how propitious the season. What beauty it would add to the landscape! What profit to the owner, and value to the selling price of the premises to get in now and spray these thousands of unsightly trees with Bordeaux mixture, or other effective fungicide! Trees in the most neglected portions of the south are ell tirely covered with fungus growth. making them sickly, unprofitable and unsightly.

Some Mistakes About Cows

Tn behalf of the animal upon which man is most dependent; it might be in place to speak of few very common abuses to which the COW is subjected in the efforts of the majority of own CTS to treat her when she is sick.
 In the first place the COW eats very large bulk of coarse food. To meet the requirements necessary for digesting it.. the COW is provided with four stom- achs. The food is first swallowed without proper mastication and passes directly into the first stomach, ,the' Ruman, which holds fifty gallons in an ordinary sized COW. From this the food passes into the second stomach the Reticulum. From here the food is regurgitated at leisure into the mouth when it is masticated more thoroughly and well mixed with saliva. This bolus of food is called the cud.
 When a COW is sick from any of the various causes she does not regurgi- tate and chew her cud. If she should drop it out of her mouth it seems to be cause for great deal of alarm with some people.
 A COW may lose a number of cuds, and it will not hurt her any more than the loss of so much food. If she does not chew their cud on account of sick ness, she should be given the proper medicine for whatever the disease may be. The cud after being properly mas ticated then passes on its natural way. -Cultivator.
