Summer soiilnE Crops.


However good the pastures may be,
there are times when they must be
supplemented with forage crops and
grain rations to maintain the dairy
herd in good flow OF milk, and the
poorer the pastures the greater the
necessity. The earliest OF the green
forage crops is rye, and 1t affords
generous supply Of good feed although
1t comes at time when the feed sup
ply is usually quite sufficient for the
time being. The use of rye in the early
fpring makes 1t possible to hold in
reserve 1t larger surplus of feed .or
midsummer. 1t can be sown in the
corn fields after the last plowing, and
in most seasons 1t Will aiforu good
supply OF green feed after the corn
crop has been secured in the iall. This
practice tends to eradicate weeds and
renovate the soil. First among the
soiling crops for midsummer and early
autumn, would place sorghum. its
hardness, vigor and growth, abundant
yield and adaptation to our soil, place
il among the most reliable and profit
able crops of the farm, regardless of
dtouth or other abnormal climatic
conditions. Any part of the crop not
needed for summer feeding in the
green state can be cured in the form
OF excellent winter fodder.-C. L.

Warming IN. Cow stable.

The Irish Homestead comments on
the warming OF COW stables as follows;
At a meeting OF the Veterinary Med
ical Association, Mr.. Pottie, who read
a paper on How 10 Make the Most
OF Mich Cow in Winter" laid great
stress on keeping the byre comfortable
and especially in regard to tcmpera'
ture. He has tried experiments on
the point and found that tempera-
ture OF SO deg. f. was the proper one
When the temperature was raised to
81 deg. F.. the supply OF milk began to
decline. He also discovered that 1t did
not take long to decrease the yield OF
milk by lowering the temperature, but
IL took far longer time to restore the
lost quantity by raising the tempera
ture again. Mr.. Pottie recommends in
cold weather to stop the doors and ven
tilators, and thus raise the tempera-
turo from the animal heat. To my
mind this system may do we'll for
time, but we fear the health OF the
animals would ultimately suffer from
breathing air charged with carbonic
acid gas. Although more costly, we
should prefer artificially heating the
hyres during very cold weather to try
Ing the experiment OF doing it with
foul air. On the other hand, In time OF
cold or stormy weather, there would be
no need for keeping doors, windows or
ventilators as widely open as in times
OF calm or heat.

during any period Of lactation will be
maialy governed by the extent OF the
decline during an unfavorable period.
The dairy COW and likewise the dairy
herd that makes the best yield must
have no adverse periods at any time.
1t is the evenly sustained yield rather
than the sudden squirt that determines
the years total.

The causes for soft shelled eggs may

tion the lack OF shell-forming material

and probably is the principal cause of
the deficiency. In n state Of nature
fowls lay fewer eggs than they do

Moreover, they have in wild state
access to so many different kinds Of
food that they are sure to get enough

be quite necessary for man to supply

yesterday morning at 10 o'clock at his
late residence. No. 30I Spring street,
this city. The immediate cause of his
death was dropsy. He had been in III
health since his return from the Philip

was not considered serious until Il few
days ago, when he began sinking rap
idly.
Thomas j. Tarsney, adjutnnt general
under Governor Waite's administra-

the most serious crises of the states
history. and bore the marks of that ex'
perience to the end. Lending his
troops in the Bull hill war Mt Cripple

CRY participants in that fight and feel
ing the effects of that terrible
night all the rest of his days, Tarsney
never could get the memory of 1t out

the horror of that memory contributed
to break down his health. He came
to Pueblo in 1874. and WIS afterward
admitted to the bar. He was appoint.

in 1894.
When the war between the mine op,

Conflicting Statements of Representa-

Denver, April 1S.-An official investi

rim, who died January Sth from arsen-

Detectives have been placed on the
case, and will continue their investi-
cations until the matter is completely
sifted. Chief of Police Armstrong yes
terday called at the district attorneys
office and engaged in conversation with
Acting District Attorney Sales. The
chief said the mystery should be inves-
tigated. When Mr.. Sales asked him
why his department did not act, Chief
Armstrong replied:
81 have had no instructions, and do
not feel as though l ought to take it
upon myself to begin all investiga-
r1on."
Mr.. Sales at once advised the chief
to take up the matter and investigate
1t carefully. Chief Armstrong replied
that he would act Immediately upon
the advice of the district attorneys Of
flee and set in motion the detective ma
chinery of the police station looking to
solution of <the mystery. He told
Mr.. Sales that he would at once place
his best detectives upon the case and
keep them at work until Il solution was
reached.

that his late sons wife had no oppor-
tunity of seeing or touching the wine

which the entire family partook with

money l would go to California and
would take Agnes with me- My girls

Mrs. Gabrin had as good feeling toward
him as his sisters, I believe it would be
different"
The old man positively refused to eS-
plain this last remark. He went on:
