desirable parts first and mess the other

bility and either entails loss of food or

ways and less at Il time woul4 give
better results from the same food. Man

II. j. Patterson of the Maryland sta

Shelter, Comfort and Kindness.
There are three factors in the feeding
of animals that are as much neglected
as any other, and, in fact, many people
have come to study the needs for max
ing "well balanced ration" and have
entirely ignored these essentials. The
attention to shelter, comfort and kind
ness for animals will save many q
pound of food and do much toward in
creasing the products obtained, no mat

performed, milk and butter or meat
products.
Winter quarters for animals should
be warm and dry and should be fur
nished with plenty of pure air and good
sunlight Stables should be well venti-
lated, but without being drafty. There
is entirely too little attention paid to
having the stable well lighted, especial
~ to having such arrangements as to
admit of a flood of sunlight. Sunlight
is an effective destroyer Of disease
germs.
Whatever adds to the comfort of ami
mails increases their ability to properly
utilize the food and will enable them to
give better returns for that which is
being consumed. Kindness Is an effi-
cient aid In making animals more pro-
ductive. and 1t costs nothing. Abuse
and excitement will interfere with di-
gestion and cause a loss of food and
product. Kindness and petting make
animals contented and put their nerv-
GUS systems in conditiop to properly
utilize food and TO return their fullest

Feeding For Beef.

In feeding for beef very different
rules may be used as guide from feed
ing for milk. Even with the calf the
object is to produce as much fat as
possible, at the same time making
growth. If possible, the calf fat with
which it is born should never be lost,
but continually added to. This means
forcing with plenty of muscle and fat
making foods. In feeding for beef more
attention should be paid TO the age Of
the animal and period of fattening than
IS commonly practiced.

How to Get Ahead of the insects.


One cannot do better on the farm
late in fall and winter than to make
a thorough search in the orchard and
garden for insect pests and their eggs
or Larvae. The best way to destroy
many insects is to prevent their mil
lions of eggs from Matching. Many of
these are laid on the twigs and in the
bark of the orchard trees. The tree
borers and grubs bury themselves
ut the base of the trees and inside of
the bark, and there hibernate. The
flies and insects glue their eggs to
twigs and bushes or bore pinholes in
the trees and deposit them there. Mil
lions of these eggs are laid for another
seasons crop of insect pests. BY de-
stroying these eggs we get ahead of the
pests and greatly limit their ravages.

The president, granted that he

lost it. There were no tricks of
oratory in his whole address. 1t
was OF the direct, telling, sledge-
hammer style. He packs his facts
close together, and Celebrates
later; but he never wanders from
his theme. Naturally this city is
one where he would probably feel
less nervousness than in some
other localities. He was in the
house of his friends, and could be
somewhat at ease. But he did not
allow that fact to diminish his
care in the arrangement of an ad-
dress which was certainly a model
in it's ability to make no slips of
phrase or leave any loopholes of
weakness through means of which
an unfair advantage could be tax.

Every one who went to the

settled as to what the president
meant by what he said. Some
points he presented over and over
in new phases and side lights in

shown. 1t was much better tina,

The First American Revolutioa.

For freedom of conscience men lay
down their lives in the province Of Lou.
isiana before they did in the colony Of
Massachusetts,. The protest against
monarchy blazed from the muskets'
mouth at New Orleans earlier than it did
at Lexington. Years before the taxed
tea was thrown overheard in Boston har2
Dor, the revolution in Louisiana had sent
about his business the Spanish governor
who came to rule over that province. lin
the histories of the United States there
is barely SO much as mention of the first
revolution Of American soil against abso-
lutism. And yet the 18th OF Oct, 1868,
is entitled to a red letter place in the
calendar of patriotic days. The name
of Lafreniere deserves rank with those
of foremost American patriots.-Walter

Success in forest experiments de-

The principal reason so few trees

account OF the time required fol

farmers have deferred planting tree:

produced fine forests.
