Feeding Corn-Cob Meal.

A writer in Epitomist says: l have
heard it stated by some experienced
farmers that the cobs ground in the
feed will hurt the stomachs of the
horses, although they will do no harm
to Illuminating animals. Other expe
rienced farmers say that the cobs will
not harm any stomach, but give no
nourishment, and call it useless trou
BILE to the stomach. A man near here
who keeps mich cows has practiced
boiling cobs for his cows, and claims
he gets from every half bushel of
boiled cobs, four quarts of milk. He
is quite satisfied and says it pays to
feed corncobs if they are boiled be-
fore feeding. There are, however, au-
thorities upon this subject who state
that the only advantage to arise from
feeding cobmeal is attributable to the
stimulus of the distention Of the ami
mails stomach; the nutriment derived
from cobs being dearly bought, and
that beyond the stimulus which cobs
afford in distending the stomach there
is nothing gained by feeding them.
