A Choice of Feeds.

New England Farmer.
The choice of feeding stuffs to supple
ment farm crops is a matter of exceedingly
great Importance to the dairyman and
stockkeeper. The time has passed when
bran, middling, oil meal, corn meal and
the ground grain of other CEREALS made up
almost the whole list, and when the name
given to a feed was a fair index to its COM
position and feeding value. Among the
hundreds Of feeds ingeniously combined
from the ground grains, or containing por-
tons of these grains left as by-products
in the manufacture Of malt and spirituous

pounds. Led Only by his eve, touch or
taste. helpful as these are to the purchaser
who is guided by good understanding of

feeds best suited to his needs. Dat huls,
corn cobs, coffee hulls, cotton-seed bulls
and other materials are very skllfully used

is SO great that nearly all the energy repre-
sented In the food must be used TO masticate
the material and pass IL through the ami

OF corn and oat feeds on the market at
least ten brands examined by the station at
Geneva, N. Y. contained from 10 to nearly

equal parts of corn and oats should con-

fiber, while several oat feeds examined con-
tanned from p 10 % per cent.-and sold for
from $50 to $50 more ton.
Prices of feeds of equal value also vary
remarkably in markets lying side by side.
One dealer in New York sells a certain
brand for $50 a ton. another dealer in the
same city asks $40.

The action of the trustees OF the public

a sort of notoriety that they will be sorry
for. There was a stormy meeting of the
board. The opposition TO the proposition

The whole incident is indecent "Anti-ex-

obtained some years ago Is accepted as

vulgar spite and petty malice which prompt

Springfield should take action at once and
provide another site. so that their town

The Canadian House of Comomns has
passed a bill forbdding the manufacture
and sale of process or renovated butter.
Mr.. McCreary, OF Selkirk. entered protest
and pointed out that creameries were still
scarce in the West and that numbers OF
people. especially foreigners there. built
largely on the few cows which they possess.
These people make a class of butter which
is not fit for export, but there is a firm at
Winnipeg that makes business Of pur-
chasing this class of butter and works 1t
over. The result is that the farmers get
more for their butter than would otherwise
be the case, while the article turned out
by the firm is perfectly wholesome and
perfectly suitable for home consumption.
He could see no good reason why this trade
should be interfered with. This plea failed
to move the minister of agriculture. He de-
clared that the measure was necessary in
the interest of the butter trade OF Canada.
especially the export trade. Once this pro-
cess butter was put on the market there
was no telling where IL would go, and If IL
were exported il would greatly inture the
reputation of the Canadian butter.

the creation of a permanent supply OF the

to complain that the advance Of wages in
the urban industries has drawn labor
away from the agricultural districts. But
as it is the greater earnings of the town
and city jewellers that give the enlarged
opportunities for selling his products the
farmer cannot desire to see laborers sent
back to the farms by the dropping of urban
wages. The only alternative seems to be

farmers must change their business meth

The solution of the problem of farm labor,
the urgency of which this yeal in the
West is only a warning of worse difficult
ties to come, lies almost wholly in the
adoption of more modern ideas and meth

Along with the new labor-saving agricul-

of wages and working hours. The stars
