American Distiuctiyeuess

Every year to the United States
comes nearly one million emiglants
from Europe. They are the falures,
and they come, consciously or IN
consciously, TO be redeemed and made
part of a community that shall summon
up their pride. Americans are
always giving voice to their fear lest
these should sweep their national
individuality into chaos; but after all
American distlnctiveness has triumphed
mysteriously hitherto. The reason OF
this IS not to be deduced from
argument, but comprehended in those
moments OF revelation that come to
the traveller. 1t is that this nation
was founded not by corqueriDe
b%arbarians, but by civilized idetlists-
the pilgrim fathers of the thirteen
original colonies. 1t is that when
their descendants, and inheritors,
alien or native, of their ideal spread
westward, they maintained theil
trad'inns. however foehlv and offer
uawuvthily they interpreted them

weekly Agricultural Letter)
Every farmer knows that oilmeal is
good for cattle and also that It will
give a great gloss to the coat Of a
horse, but when Incomes to feeding
hogs most farmers consider clinical to
be too expensive, that 1t will make oily
pork, and many ven believe that for
hogs 1t is a dangerous feed requiring
to be used with great care.
At the same time many Of these
same men are buying oilmeAl in patent
stock foods for their hogs, and little is
the wonder, for oilmeal is q remarkable
feed, and if it has taken the stock food
people to properly impress this fact
upon us, then we are indebted to these
gentlemen for a service,
The Missouri Experiment Station
has fed oilmesl with corr to a great
many hogs in the past three years.
The packers tell us that the pork
produced is very firm and the fat hard
aud white. There is less oil in new
process oilmeSl than in corn. Oilmeal
does not make oily pork.
In four tests with young hogs
weighing about 100 lbs. each aud fed
out at fat hog weights, we made 1OC
lbs. Of pork with an average
expenditure of S76 pounds of 6
mixture Of five parts corn and one
part oilmeal. 1t takes about SCI
pounds of corr slone to make 100 lbs
of pork.
Ollmeal is a greater appetizer q
well as a laxative. Hogs will eat to-
much, for best profits, of a ration
containing it, if allowed to do 80
Feed a little less Of the ration tbal
the hogs want.
In one experiment we cut out an,
: weighed the tendeIloiu muscles of fv
pigs at the time our feeding began
Then we took sia,ii4r ~tiizbbts ito,
the carcasses OF the hogs In tn
experiment, after they mad been fe
h Tor sixty days. In the lot getting cor
4. alone these muscles bad increased i
weight in so days 10 the extent Of
per cent but these muscles in the hog
3 receiving oilmeal had grown "a pC
cent heavier. But still more inteTes
ing-the muscles of the corn fed pig
contained IS per cent more fat, VIII
the muscles OF the oilmeal fed pis
c ntained only 9 per cent more fl
% than at the beginning OF the experiment
Still tbe OIL neal pigs had gained
u weight "a per cent more than the COZ
& d pigs and 'lso dressed out a lit
h'gher per cent OF carcass to liz
wight, The oilmeal hogs had pl
their fat on the outside of the carcas
where it produced q smooth al
attractive finish, but the corn.fed boI
