The Pasturing
Of Rape
Prof: Thom.. Shaw Point. Out the
Best and Safest Methods for
Cattle. Sheep and Ho1,.

Rape furnishes fine pasture for
horses, cattle, sheep and swine, also
fowls. But some care is necessary in
grazing it down with cattle or sheep.
lest bloating should result. Many val
liable sheep have thus been lost, and
in some Instances cattle. They eat
rayenously of the plant, as they be-
come very fond of it, and when taken
thus freely on an empty stomach, gas
is generated to such an extent that
soon the animal dies from suffocatioa
if not promptly relieved.
The conditions that favor bloat are,
much succulence IN the rape, damp
ness on the plants from dew or RAIN
and feeding upon the rape, while the
stomach is empty. | have noticed that
the tendency to produce bloat in rape
is much greater In the damp climate Of
Ontario than in the drier climate of
the upper Mississippi basin. But the
danger is sometimes present in the lat
ter area as we'll as in the former.
The danger is also greater where
the rape plants are immature and es-
peclally when the lack of maturity is

in to Craze upon half-grown rape, the
danger OF loss is much greater than
when the rape is grown and has
large amount of stalk. The danger is
considerably greater when the rape
plants are wet.
When sheep and cattle are turned i'll
to Craze on rape, the following eau
ton should be observed. They should
not be allowed to go into the rape
While. hungry at any time This is es-
peciallv true when the grazing first
begins. The plan sometimes adopted
is to feed the animals some rape food
and then turn them into the rape field
and leave them there day and night
second method is to turn into the
rape for short time and then remove
the animals, leaving them in the rape
pasture for a longer season each day

until they have become accustomed to

conditions 1t may not be necessary, as

In the field, furnish variety of food
along with the rape. Because of this
the danger from bloat is very nuch
reduced.
The same is true of rape grown in
mixtures. In some instances il is
sown along with corn, or sorghum or
mlllet, to provide grazing, and when
thus grown the hazard is reduced Just
in proportion as the other foods ara

however, that under some condition.;

grow among other food. Particularly
is this true in seasons when the fool
is very succulent.
A grass pasture at hand is an ex-
cellent aid to rape pasture. even
though the grass should have lost
much Of its succulence. This is ant
to be the case in the early autumn
which is the season when rape is more
commonly ready for being turned in
upon.
Usually the plan is best that turns
sheep onto rape when it is well-grown.
The rape provides more food when
grazed down under these conditions
than when grazed earlier. and then
again after 1t has grown up more or
less. 1t Is probable, however. that
swine will do better on rape when
turned somewhat earlier. They nra-

MEN WHO REFUSED TITLES.
Distinguished Enel,shmsn Who Re.

Distinguished Englishmen Who Re-
garded Rank Empty Honor.
Not all Englishmen are seeking IT,
ties of nobility. At least there have
been many subjects of the crown who
might have worn coronets, but declin-
ed to accept them for varying reasons
that were at least sufficient to them
selves. The late William Ewart Glad
stone was a notable example of the lat
age which time after time was held
out to him was always rigidly rejected.
Swinburne might have han "Sir"
before his name had he chosen to
accept the baronetcy which was offered
him some years ago, but with true
democratic independence he refused to
accept title which. after all, could
do little to enhance his fame SINH
larily, Mr.. Watts, R. A., whose pic
lures are known. the wide world over,
could have ranked with Lord Leigh
ton had he stoutly asserted his objec-
ton to titles and elected to remain as
he was. Lord Tennyson, when first
dPpI OA Iuc QucSliOLl VI dCC0pS-
ing a peerage, was strongly opposed
to the idea, but eventually succumbed
to the offer on the ground that hia
son would inherit the title and that he
was therefore justified in taking 1t.
1t is rumored that the late Professor
Huxley was offered knighthood by
Mr.. Gladstone-an offer which was
politely but firmly declined. A similar
honor was proposed to his distinguish
ed contemporary, Professor Tyndall,
and was also declined without hesita-
! ton. 1t is an open secret that Charles
Dickens might have added bart" to
his illustrious name had he chosen to
do so. A few years before the demise
OF Verdi, the illustrious composer, the
late King Humbert sent for the macs
tro and offered him a dukedom in rec
ognition Of his services to music.
Verdi refused the gracious offer with
dignified courtesy. whereupon the
king admitted that he was quite right.

but Tempest, as he saw one after an
other of the gang leap into the old
ruin, knew that the gallant defenders
of the temple and Lola Cara were
doomed unless he, alone could aid
them
Gripping his poniard tightly, he ut
tered a wild yell, and, rushing for
ward he hurled himself over the bar
ricade and into the very thickest Of
the fight.
Here's one for Medworth!" he
shouted, as he drove his knife into
the heart of fellow whose gun was
aimed at Lord Chugmough's breast.
Here's another for Crespo and the
Republic!" he shouted again, giving
another Zambo his death-blow.
Take one in the name of Uncle
Sam while we're at it," he yelled,
and another of the fiends of Malta
Judo bit the dust.
His sudden advent disconnected the
Zambos and gave Lord Chugmough
and William an opportunity to re-
cover. But even now they were out
seemed1shopeless.
Tempest seemed endowed with the
strength of seven men. With the
knife IN his right hand he felled one
after another while his left was busy
hurting his enemies from him.

calmly, with his usual drawl, as soon
as the last enemy had disappeared,

as he spoke.
In a short time Tempest revived
enough to open his eyes. He looked
up at Lola and smiled.
"Ah-Im-g lad-you're SAFE" he
whispered.

A gurgling sound in Tempest's
throat had choked further utterance,
and the poor fellows fingers gripped
Lord Chugmough's. He was conscious,
apparently. for he looked at Lola as
if he wished to say something. But
the Zambo had struck too deep. In a
few minutes the weary eyes closed, the
great chest gave heave and the life
went out of Jack Tempest.

led by that worthy himself, who had,
true to Lord Chugmoughs prediction,
returned to recover his lost victim.
They hid themselves behind trees or
rocks, and shot into the open end Of
the ruin, now half barricaded with
stones and logs piled up by Lord
Chugmough and William.
Behind this rude fertilization he
could now and then catch a glimpse
of a head, and the quick aiming of q
rifle as one of the Zambos showed
himself, thereby drawing upon him
the unerring fire of the Englishmen.
Mobs like that led by Mattazudo
lean mostly to guerrilla warfare, and
the bravest of these followers of the
half-breed chose rather to shoot from
ambush than in fair fight.
But, numerous as they were, they
were at marked disadvantage when

1t did not take Mattazudo long to
discover that at the rate they were
going the Englishmen would eventu-

1t became necessary, therefore, to
boldly attack the ruin in body. The
Englishmen would no doubt kill a
few, but two men in q hand-to-hand
fight must give way to overwhelming
numbers. and the lives of few
