Z CRUM'S CONFIRMATION
It Is Likely to Fail for Want Of
Action.
New York Sun Special Service.

Washington, March 10.-Democratic op-
position to the appointment DR.. W. D.
Crum, colored, as collector Of the port OF
Charleston, S. c., will probably be suffi-
GENTLY potent to prevent his contirma ton
by the senate. Several democratic sena-
tors, including two from South Carolina
have given notice that they will fight
Crum's nomination If it is reported. The
republicans do not intend to make this
a party question nor to complicate the
pending treaties by needlessly stirring up
democratic wrath. They are likely, there
fore, to keep the nomination in the COM

Care Of the Sow and Pigs.

The brood SOW, which is due to far
row in a short time, should be given
the best of care and treatment that
she may be able to pass through far
rowing and sucking time with the
least possible loss of flesh. Her feed
should. consist of balanced ration,
that she may be able to supply all the
demands of the growing pigs, and 1t
should be Of such form that it will not
be constipating; but rather acting as
a laxative. A good ration for a preg-
nant SOW, to be used up till time of
narrowing, consists of a grain ration
Of corn and g. slop composed of equal
parts of middlings and gluten feed
with a little bone meal and oil meal
added. She should be fed literally
on the above feeds until day or two
before narrowing when the corn should
be dropped and oats substituted. This
will serve as laxative and will help
to alleviate the fever which arises
during narrowing. Her treatment
should be such that she may be petted
at any time during narrowing, when
she should be attended, and as fast as
the little pigs come they should be
dried and placed Where they may
suckle Immediately. Publication Iowa

Rape and Corn-StaIk Disease.

sNF~ 0'fO SSIII~oIdIN 1ISCdSSs
From Farmers Review: Some time
ago wrote you about sowing rape in
corn as preventive for "corn stalk
disease" Now as to whether it will
prevent 1t or not in all cases I can't
say, but it has in my case anyway,
and more than that it has made a
lot of feed, and at very slight cost.
Then 1t shades the ground and keeps
all weeds from growing, as it will be
a long time before all corn will be
cut with the corn binder. I would ad-
wise all corn growers to try a few
acres Of rape, and it won't be long
till they will sow it in all corn not
intended to b. cut. My cattle are eat
ing it now, and will leave good corn
fodder to 60 to the field and Craze
on the rape. It will remain green and
growing till winter sets in and then
the cattle still enjoy it. I sowed two
to three pounds of seed per acre ahead
Of the cultivators the last time
through, and then ran the shovels
from IL to inches deep. 1t will not
do to let milk cows run on rape alone,
as it taints the milk, but for young
stock and sheep it is certainly a great
help, as it fills in just right in that
hardest of all times between grass and
hay, when nearly every farmers cat
tie lose flesh. Hoping that this will
enable some one to keep two head
where he kept one before I will not
use any more of your valuable space.

Fiber in Feed Stuffs.

"A communication from the New
York Experiment station at Geneva
says: The choice Of feeding stuffs to
supplement farm crops is matter of
exceedingly great Importance to the
da1ryman: and stock keeper. The
time has passed when bran, middlings,
oil meal, corn meal and the ground
grains Of other cereals made up al
most the whole list, and when the
name given to feed was fair index
to Its composition and feeling value.
Among the hundreds Of feeds ingeni-
ousiy combined from the ground
grains, or containing portions of
these grains left as by-products in the
manufacture Of malt and spirituous
liquors, of starch, sugar and glucose,
OF breakfast foods or of vegetable oils,
the feeder finds wide range Of puz.
zllng compounds. Led only by his
eye, touch or taste (helpful as these
are to the purchaser who is guided by
good understanding of principles) he
would find it exceedingly difficult to
make sure selection of the feeds best
suited to his needs. Dat hulls, corn
cobs, coffee hulls, cottonseed bulls and
other materials are very skillfully
used as adulterants, so that in some
feeds now for sale in this state the
percentage Of fiber is so great that
nearly all the energy represented in
the food must be used to masticate the
material and pass it through the ami
mals body. Of corn and oat feeds on
the market at least 10 brands exam
ined by the station at Geneva con-
tanned from 10 to nearly 16 per cent
OF fiber; while mixture of equal
parts OF corn and oats should contain
less than six per cent. Good oats
normally contain less than 10 per cent
OF fibre, while several oat feeds exam
med contained from % to 20 per cent
and sold for from 500 to $50 or more
ton. Prices, of feeds of equal value
also vary remarkably in markets ly-
ing side by side. One dealer in New
York sells certain brand for $50 a
ton, another dealer in the same city
asks $40. These are but few illus
tratiQns of the impositions put upon
farmers by some manufacturers or
dealers in feeds.
