miners-and that bill! will become a
law if Nevada is not on her guard.
The bill is Infamous. 1t proposes, af-

the silver in the treasury, silver dol
lars and bullion, melted and coined

quarters and halves. Do you men Il

Water Before Feeding.

Horses should be watered before
their grain feed. This story has been
put to the experimental test. A horse
was fed with four quarts of whole
oats, and Immediately after given
water to drink. Soon after the horse
was killed and opened. Scarcely a
quart Of oats was found swimming
In the water In the stomach, the re-
naming three quarts having been
forced by the water into the intesdnes.
Another horse was given water first
and then about four quarts Of oats.
Fifteen minutes after this horse was
slaughtered, and the entire quantity
Of oats was found In the stomach, and
already digestion was setting In.
Horses require more water In hot
weather than in cold, and more when
at work than when idle. Horses at
full work should be watered frequent
ly: three times day is not too often.
The hay and grain should always be
pure and sweet.

Very careful experiments at the On
tario Agricultural College have shown
that an even mixture Of peas and oats
made the most profit in feeding lambs,
Peas alone make the most gain, but
ar somewhat greater cost of feed.
Corn and peas made a slightly small
Ter gain than the other feeds. But
the difference was so small that the
convenience Of procuring the feed IS
the largest element in the case As
peas and oats may be grown together
very conveniently and cheaply, this
crop secures some advantages over
others which may give 1t a preference

some temporary division can be easily
made, put in place and removed when

In growing tomatoes nitrogen In the
soil Is the least desired of the plant
foods and the best results will come
from phosphoric acid and potash liber
ally applied broadcast. Much has been
written regarding the use Of nitrate Of
soda for tomato growing and while
this chemical is good, 1t should be
used with caution. Its function is to
cause the plant to make a quick
growth; In other words give 1t Il
start which will be kept up by the

This being the case the best way to
use It is to watch the plants closely

by the American transportation COM
panies is Familiarity known
Several of the best lawyers in the
senate took the matter to Secretary
Taft, and the secretary freely ac-
knowledged that. it would be a viola
ton of the coasting law to carry
troops and supplies over the Canadian
route. He wrote to Senator Nelson
saying that emergency shipments only
would be made over the foreign route,
and he said verbally that if he found
that the quartermaster's department
was abusing this discretionary power
to make emergency shipments they
would hear from him.
Nevertheless, arrangements have
been made, lacking one detail, for
sending the two companies of troops
destined for Fort Egbert over the Ca
madam route in a body. The only
thing lacking is the permission of
the British government to take troops
across its territory, and this permits
sion has been asked for. BY making
the shipments the war department will
violate not only the coastwise law, but
the new law expressly restricting
transportation for the army and navy
to American bottoms. But the quar-
termaster's office has more than once
shown that 1t is greater than the law.
