SUGAR AND MOLASSES DIET
Reports from Abroad Are to the Eff
feet That as a Bone Strength
ener 1t Is a Success.

The use OF sugar and molasses for
cattle and horse fe eding is gaining in
popularity. Laws in many European
countries have been changed exempt
fng these products from taxation when
they are to be used for feeding pur-
poses When recently in Paris, our
attention was called to certain facts
that may be interesting to our readers.
The Omnibus company of the French
capital owns over 10000 horses, and
as out of that number there are about
700 broken legs per annum. it was ar
gued that possibly these accidents
were in a measure due to some faulty
combination Of the daily rations.
In 1901 the first experiments were
made. the one kilogram of sour mash
that had hitherto been used being SUBJ
stituted by an alkaline molasses COM
bination. The results obtained were
encouraging beyond the most sanguine
expectations, and in 1902 the number
of broken legs was only 70.
1t was concluded that the extreme
fragility Of the animals bony structure
was due to the absence of the requisite
mineral elements in their rations.
There appears to be ample medical au-
thority for asserting that heavy con-
sumers of sugar, in cases of bone frac-
ture, will recover more rapidly than
when that article Of luxury is eaten in
moderation. In some hospitals. pa
tients that are laid up with compound
fractures OF legs or arms receive In ad-
dition to their regular food allowance
$50 grams of sugar, the cost of which
Is soon covered by the lesser period
needed for the complete healing Of the
bony tissue.-Sugar Beet

Preventing Scours in Pigs.

Nothing is better for preventing
scours in pigs than some crushed oat
and barley slop run through a screen
to remove most of the hulls which
should be placed in a low trough in a
corner of the pen. The young pigs go
for this greedily. At two months old
they are ready to wean, when they
should be put in two large pens, GULL
ing out the weaker ones and putting
them in pens made vacant by grouping
three agreeable sows. Much more skill
is required to raise young pigs in wins
ter than in summer. After taking them
away from their dams feed warm new
milk for the first meal and after that
warm skim milk with a good sprnk
ling OF shorts in 1t, Increasing the
quantity each day until about the
consistency of thin porridge. A good
way is to mix quart of oil meal with
each barrel of feed and have a box in
the corner of each pen containing
wood ashes, charcoal and little salt
and sulphur-Rural World.

MIMIC WAR AT BULL RUN.

Nearly 100000 to Be Spent I'm
Teaching $4,000 Soldiers.
Prince William county of Virginia, the
scene OF many bloody battles in the Civil
War, has been selected as the site where
nearly a million dollars will be spent
this fall in teaching 25,0O0 soldiers some
thing about the art of war. The maneu-
vers that have been planned for the week
from Sept. 8 to Sept. IL, inclusive, will
be the most extensive in the history of
this country. Nearly twice the number
of men and horses that participated in
the West Point and Fort Riley maneu-
vers will be present, and the sham bat
ties have been planned on a scale that
will cause them to resemble the evolu-
tons Of an army belonging to one OF the
military nations Of old Europe.
Sixty-fve thousand acres of farming
land, extending over an area ten miles
long and FIVE miles wide in the northern
part Of Prince William county. Va, ev-
cry feot Of which was fought over time
and gain during the Civil War, has been
leased from the owners for maneuver
purposes. The Southern Rairoad marks
a straight line through the center of the
strip. which begins at Manassas and ex-
tends In a northwesterly direction to the
little town of Thoroughfare. Several
miles of the Warrenton turnpike are in
cluded in the strip.
The 1900 militiamen, together with
their baggage and equipment, will pour
In from q dozen States at once on Sept. 2
and the day following. They will be met
ut the station by specially detailed ON
GERS who will assign them to their posi-
ions on the field. -Four hundred wagons
OF the quartermasters' department will
be on hand to carry away the tents and
baggage as fast as they can be taken out
Of the cars. Within six hours after ar
irving at their destination, be 1t Thor
oughfars or Manassas, the militiamen
will be under canvas ready for the work
of the week.
Sunday, Sept. 4, will be a day of rest.
but over night will come a transforma-
ton. The two peaceful tented cities, ~
Ing some ten miles apart, will change into
hostile camps, hourly expecting the at
tack Of an enemy. Picket lines will be
established, fires will be covered, the
men will speak in whispers and all will
be on the qui vive, awaiting the appear
ance OF the foo. The following day win
occur the mimic war.

The census office has issued a bulletin
on Negroes in the United States" con-
tanning statistics with regard to the ex-
tent, character and condition OF the ne
gro population ia the several States Of
the Unien. The summary of results Civ
Gu in the bulletin is In part as follows:
The number Of negroes in the United
States Gncluding Alaska, Hawaii and
Porto Rico is 9.20O.000, perhaps u larg-
er number han is found in any other
country outside of Africa. Nearly nine
tenths OF the negroes in continental
United States are found in the Southern
States. The largest number OF negroes
living in compact masses arc found in
certain urban counties, several OF which
lie outside of the great cotton-growing
States The foUc, each having over 49,

phis; Baltimore, Md, and Orleans par

negroes is greatest lies in the Mississippi

with more than fifteen negroes to each
white person. The center of the negro
population is in De Kalb County, Ala
bana, about four miles from the vest
ern boundary of Georgia and thirty-three
miles south Of the southern boundary Of
Tennessee.
In the country districts as a whole the
ncgro males outnumber the negro females
slightly and in the cities the females out
number the males decidedly. This dis
association of the sexes between city and
country Is far. more marked among ne
groes Than among whites and has in
creased since 1890.
Among negroes 4.5 per cent are illit-
crate. The percentage Of illiteracy has
decreased rapidly since 1890, when it was
OIL per cent. 1lliteracy among negroes
IL about seven times as common az
among whites and this ratio between the
races has not altered materially in the
last ten years.

ton, it would reach zero about 1910.
There was a decided increase between
1890 and 1900 in the proportion of mar
riages among young negroes. This in
crease OF early marriages was yet more
marked among Southern whites Of both
seYAa and was nrohably due tn the great
prosperity Of the country just before
1900.
There are nearly 100000 negroes In
the United States engaged in gainful oc
equations. These persons, who may be
called breadwinners. constitute 45.2 pei
cent Of the total negro population, while
for the total white population the per
cent is 1878 and for Southern whites 34.2.
