Every Appearance That the Senate

Washington, Dec. THE period of

nese are excluded fro mthis country.
expires today, but by mutual agree
ment its provisions will remain oper-
ative until the new treaty arranged
by Secretary Hay and the Chinese
minister has been presented to the
senate and ratified
From all appearances the senti-
ment against Chinese exclusion, of
which talk is heard now and then, is
not sufficiently strong to endanger
the ratification of the new treaty by
the senate. Should the opponents of
the measure start a fight after the
any prospect of success, it is believed
that the document would be with
drawn rather than permit it's amend
ment by the senate in such manner
as to weaken the restrictions upon the
admission of Chinese of the lower
classes.
l't'The new treaty II Is said viii be
equally as strict as the old one in re-
gard to exclusion, but it will contain
provisions which will permit the en-

DRY FEED WAS BEsT.
An Interesting Experlment wia Hogs
kiftst ot de Idaho stafion.ltll

Experiments at the Idaho station
to determine the relative value OF
wet and dry feed show that Y 1t re-
quired 433 pounds of grain to produce
lob pounds OF gain in live weight in
the case of the dry feed lot and ass
pounds of grain to produce 100
pounds OF gain in Lot fed on soaked
grain. This shows a difference in
favor of the dry feed. ni. -."re.i
In a majority of the experiments
there is n small margin in favor OF
soaking grain for pigs and it is espe-
cially marked when whole grain is
fed.nbThere' rs only a small per cent
in favor of soaked grain when ground.
The foregoing experiments seem to in
dictate a small advantage in feeding
ground grain dry. iIat d
Experiments in oregon with mix
ture of chopped wheat. shorts, oats
and bran showed a slight advantage
for the soaked grain. The average re-
suits in 10 tests in which SO pigs were
used. reported in a publication from
the bureau of animal industry, showed
. per cent in favor of soaked grain
and this was clearly due to the eXper-
iments with whole grain, for in sew
eral cases the dry ground grain gave
the best results. In either case the
advantage results are mot marked IL
favor of one method over the other.

Spain was 1SS91,574. of which $685.

to read and write, including children,
is given at 100000. That the num-

lation could read and write; in 1877
the proportion had increased TO 24.4S
per cent, 10 years later to 2S,49 per
