Wheat as Horse Feed.

Wheat as food for horses was tes,-
ed al the North Dakota Experiman,
Station. The results are published n
Bulletin No. 20 of that station. Tbs
wheat was fed at the rate or Il
pounds daily, and the horses wers
given an average days work. II was
found that wheat alone was not :
satisfactory grain ration for a work
horse. There was a tendency for .ha
horses to get "off feed" and for tha
digestion to become deranged. Nm
tests are reported where wheat
formed a part of the grain ration for
work horses; upon this point. DR.
Salmon, Of the Bureau Of Animal In.
dustry, U. s. Department Of Agricul.
ture, gives suggestions in a circular
of information issued in 1894.
There are certain points to ba
borne in mind when one is commen.
cling to feed wheat. Our domesti.
Gated animals are all very fond Of II
but r not accustomed to eating II.
Precautions should consequently be
observed to prevent accidents and dis.
ease from It's use. 1t is a matter Of
common observation that when fun
fed horses are changed from old 10
new oats they are liable to attacks OF
indigestion, collie and founder. II
such results follow the change from
old to new oats, how much more
likely are they to follow a radical
change. such as that from oats to
wheat? For this reason, wheat should
at first be fed in small quantities. II
should, when possible, be mixed with
some other grain and care should be-
taken to prevent any one animal from
getting o than the quantity In.
tended for 1t. These precautions are
especially necessary when wheat ia
fed to horses, as these animals are
peculiarly liable to collie and other
disturbances of the digestive organs,
accompanied or followed by lamInitis.
Cattle, sheep and hogs frequently
crowd each other from the feeding
troughs, In which case some individ.
uals obtain more than their share,
and may bring on serious or fatal at
tacks of indigestion. The best form In
which to feed wheat Is to roll or grind
ii into a coarse meal. 1t may then
be fed alone, or mixed with corn
meal OF ground oats. When ground
fine 1t is pasty and adheres to the
teeth, gums and cheeks so that 1t Is
not so readily masticated or eaten.

Cost OF Pasteurjzinu.

Experiments conducted at the Royal
Experiment Station In Copenhagen
prove that II a pasteurizer Is properly
constructed and properly operated II
will require about 90 lbs OF steam for
heating 1000 pounds of milk, from 80
to 1S5 degrees f., says M. Mortenson.
II we figure that 1T takes one pound
Of coal to produce four pounds Of
steam, to produce ninety pounds Of
steam will then require % pounds OF
coal. Figuring coal at $500 per ton
and our butter yield Az pounds Dut
ter to 100 pounds milk, makes the cost
OF pasteurizing one pound OF butter
about one-tenth Of a cent. This eD
pense, however, Is reduced consider
ably by pasteurizing the cream ana
skinned milk separately. The cream
is reduced to such a small announs
that the expense per pound viii %
very little. For pasteurization OF
skinned milk the exhaust steam can
be used; this is also more satisfactory
to the patrons as milk when pasteur
lied after skimming is warm enough
to scald the cans and the milk keeps
sweet longer. 4

Argentine Corn Crop.

The Minister Of Agriculture OF Ar

der maize amounted to 3,473,746 acres

els, the average yield being then 2As

27.7 per cent in the area, SO per cens

this year is not likely to be quite -
