LAWS FOR PHILIPPINES.
Senate Passes Bill Relating to Our H..
su!ar Possessions After an
Extended Debate.

A Washington special says: The
senate Friday, by a vote Of A to 20,
passed the Philippines civil govern
ment bill. The final vote was preced.
ed by the presentation Of many
amendments and q general discussion
of them as well as Of the provisions of
the bill. The discussion was confined
quite generally to the merits Of the
measure. On some OF the amendments
suggested by democratic senators sew
eral western republicans voted in the
Affirmative, but Mr.. McCumber was
the only republican who voted with
the democrats against the final pass
age OF the bill.
The most notable change made dur
ing the day was the lowering Of the
rate OF interest on railroad bonds to be
guaranteed by the Philippine govern.

The bill as passed exempts from
taxation all bonds issued by the Phil

authorizes municipalities in the Philip
pines to incur a bonded indebted.

the committee on territories, reported
the statehood BILL and he will make
a motion on the first day that he SEN
ate convenes in January that the con.
sideration of the bill shall be entered
On at once
During the debate on the Philippine
bill the provision exempting bonds
from taxation met with opposition
from Mr.. German, who contended the
exemption was wrong in principle Mr..
Carmack said be was opposed to the
railroad bond provision because it
would make it more difficult for the
United States to get out Of the Philip
pines. He quoted the presidents hope
that our Cuban policy might at some
time be adopted in the Philippines.
This he characterized as a renuncia.
ton Of the republican policy, and in
line with the democratic platform.
I'VE welcome the president to the
ranks of the anti-imperialists." he said.
''He is all il not quite eligible tc
membership in the Boston anti-impe-
rialist league"
The senate then adjourned until

The introduction OF foreign labor in

The greatest watchfulness and COM
mon sense should be used in the care
and feeding of the weanlings.
They should have an abundance OF
nourishing food, plenty Of sunshine
and exercise.
Colts suffer sometimes from teeth
ing, and at such times they may run
down so much in condition that seri-
Gus setback may result.
Crushed oats and barley steamed,
also cooked roots mixed with ground
grain and wheat bran, are very nour-
ishing and should be fed.
\ little ground daxseed should al
ways be added to the ration.
If the colts do not thrive as they
Should, skinned milk should be CIV
en- them daily.
A good allowance Of bright clover
hay should be given them, but not all
they will eat. 49, -...
An oversuppIy will stuff the diges-
tive tract and cause dyspepsia.
Liberal feeding must be accompanied
by plenty Of exercise in the open air.
Every fair day should be spent in
the paddock or field.
In cases where O. weanling is weak
and thin, whole cows milk can be fed
with profit.
The stalls should be kept clean, level
and we'll Uttered with bright straw
free from dust. Uneven and slippery

The Best Cow stanehfon.

c. NJ. B., Schenevus, N. T.: saw
your answer in regard to swing stanch-
ions. We areS planning to build q
new barn and wish to use them, but
have had no opportunity OF seeing
them work. Will you kindly give me
a list in the order as you consider
best? I will then order samples.
This letter is one Of several asking
for, the best cattle tie, or stanchior:
To answer such questions would only
be expressing my own individual opin.
ion. I am going to say again In sub
stance what have said before Any
man who contemplates building cow
barn, and has the money to buad one
with, has abundant means to spend q
few days in looking at what others
have built. He has abundant mems
to attend his State fair, and can visit i
both his State and Agricultural Coll
lege and State Experiment Station.
All these are provided for at State
and Government expense for. the ex-s
press purpose Of instructing just such
men. Not alone stanchions, or cattle
ties, but watering devices, feeding
troughs, floors and drops so arranged
as to keep. the cattle clean, are there
being tried or are in daily use. There
fore, will say that If man can't get
up energy enough to so and see for.
himself, and for himself decide what
will best suit his needs, don't think
it wisdom for any one else to Try to
advise.
at the New York State Fair, in 1898,
there were on exhibition several DIFF
ferent kinds Of cattle Ties. For less
than S. one could so from Schenevus
and see them and return home. By
adding 50 more he could take in both
Geneva and f,crnell. Yes, and more
than that, he could visit several up-to-
date dairy farms and fee how thesc cat
tie were being cared for. I tell yon.
my friends, and hundreds Of Others,
if you are expecting to build barns
and keep cattle, and keep abreast OF
the times and in line with other pros
sressive men, you can't do it by stay
ing at home and asking any one to tell
you which Of this, that and The other
will be best for you. Five dollars ex-
pended in looking around for yourself
may save you hundreds OF dollars. No
man can sta.- at home and read the
papers and keep in touch with the pro-
gressiye people of the ), orld. It is the
fellow who gets out Of his cfamshell
and skirmishes that secures the tninsS
which make his business success.
1 might write you and tell you what
kind of stanchion thou5 5ilt was best
and when you got it you might think
differently and wish you had not done
as advised you to do. While it is
the object and aim Of this journal to
aid its subscribers in every way 1t
can, it is not it's purpose to lay down
rules to govern them in their business
projects. The purpose is more to lerd
an aiding ,and and strive to help then,
who are striving to help themselves.

The best single grain for breeding
sheep is oats. Bran is also good for
breeding ewes to stimulate them and
produce strong lambs.
Corn should be restricted to the fat
tening flock, and then must be strong
with a nitrogenous food such as clover
hay.
Timothy hay is. not suited to the
needs Of the sheep; digestive disorders
occur when timothy hay is fed, which
often result in the loss of the sheep.
Glover and mixed hay may be fed to
the flock with good results.
Roots, when fed with grain, produce
choice mutton. The sheep may be
herded on the root crop in the field,
after which the cups can be pulled
and stored before frost.
A few neglected sheep will eat up
the profit of several good ones. Get
rid of the improbable ones and give
the others good care.
Each sheep should be allowed five
feet floor space and eighteen inches to
two feet at the rack.
The troughs for grain feeding should
be ten to twelve inches wide so that
the sheep must eat slowly.
Racks which prevent the chaf from
getting in the wool should be used.
A rack consisting Of vertical Stats,
with a moderate slant, placed about
two inches apart, will keep the fleece
clean, as little or no hay is placed over
the sleeps backs. The back Of the
rack may be given a slant to allow
room for sufficient nay.
1t is best in feeding not to carry the
hay over the sleeps backs; it can be
dropped from above to the racks, or
placed in the racks from the ends or
alleys.
Drinking places should be provided
which allow fresh water to be kept

Study the Matter.

A few days ago an Indiana cattle
grower marketed a few carloads Of
cattle weighing over 1900 pounds per
head at $6.10. On the same day an
other with lot of cattle of about the
same weight and general appearance
could obtain only $3.50. The beef cat
tie expert, who was able to see the
thick mottled meat as the first 10: ap-
peared, saw larger profit from the
block than he did in the cheaper lot.
They were both grade Shorthorns, and
the difference was only in the feeding.
In view Of these things, occurring al
most every day in the great markets,
it is we'll that the agricultural colleges
have taken up the subjec; Of cattle
feeding, and are teaching students
how necessary it is to feed properly in
order to obtain. top prices in the mar
ket. The difference of sixty cents per
100 pounds on cattle weighing 1900 to
1900 is too large less, when it may
be avoided by learning how to feed
properly and in way requiring no
more time or labor, nor with feed
stuffs costing any more. II is a mat
ter worth studying.-Indiana Farmer.
