The Costliest Electric Line.
Details Of marvellous electric rail-
road now projected from Milan to
Genoa, Italy, are given by l.. b. Ward
in the October World Today. Although
only eighty-five miles long. the road
will encounter such a mass of tunnels
and bridges that the cost will average
over $4,000 mile. To avoid all grade
crossings 372 bridges and 10 tunnels
are to be constructed, one tunnel being
twelve miles long. 1t will take six
years to complete the line. Electric
locomotives of 1000 horsepower will
be used, with $4,000 horsepower cur
rent generated by water power, giving
a speed of eighty miles an hour. The
road Is to carry freight as well as pas
sengers and will link tae two cities
into one community.
To Dam the Colorado.
The city of Austin, Tex, has signed
with New York contracting company
for the rebuilding Of the great dam

which was washed away by the foods
several years ago. The new dam,
which is to cost $1,5O0,O0O, will form a
lake thirty miles long and half a mile
wide. 1t will provide power for a
large electric plant.

per day Of corn are ample for any
horse, and as low as two ears per feed
are many times Sufficient BY feeding
six ears of corn in the morning and the
same amount at noon and I'm the even
ing giving a mixture of equal parts OF
oats and bran, about gallon and II
half, you have grain ration that can
hardly be improved upon for the fat
tening horse. These amounts are for
the large animals, say from 1,400 to
1,600 pounds and doing a moderate
amount Of exercise every day. If the
animal is smaller than this, the amount
of feed given should be less.
In addition to this the animal should
have an abundance of good, bright hay.
Clover is preferable If it is bright and
free from dust. If it is dusty it should
not be fed under any circumstances to
the horse, much less to the horse you
are feeding to go on the market next
spring. Dusty hay and but little exer-
else will make the best horses thick
winded. Then keep the blood in order
This may easily be done by feeding a
half pint of glauber salts in the oats
every third day.

FEEDING SALE HORSES.
Horseman, Huron, S. D.: How should
horses be fed for market?

Answer.-The first thing necessary
in feeding the horse for market is to
get the right kind of ration. Some of
us think all that Is necessary is to give
him all the hay he will eat and from
ten to fifteen ears of corn at q feed
and he will get fat, If anything will
make him fat. This is a very mis-
taken idea. The horse, especially if
he is still growing, needs something
more than corn and hay. Corn con-
tains but a very little lean flesh form
ing food and very small amount of
bone building food. Timothy hay al
SO lacks these materials. True, they
will add the fat, but they will not
build the bone.
To properly feed the horse he should
have a mixture of oats, bran and corn.
The oats and bran give the lean flesh
forming food. The bran contains a
considerable amount Of the food needed
for the formation of the bone, while
the corn gives the fat forming food.
Too much of this ration should not b,
given. The farmer generally feeds too
much grain when he is feeding for the
market. We know Of several farmers
who give as high as ten ears at feed.
While the amount TO be given depends
upon the size and age Of the animal
and the amount Of work II has to do, II
should never be fed ten ears Of corn at

causes sore eyes in cattle? Is there
any reliable cure?
Answer.-Ophthalm or sore eyes,
is quite general in the spring. 1t may
be caused by the introduction Of some
foreign matter, such as chaff, weed
seed or dust, taken into the eyes while
the animals are feeding at the straw
heap. Exposure to cold or poisonous
gases which arise from a foul stable
may also be the means of bringing on
an attack. The first symptoms are in
profuse flowing Of tears and the clos
ing Of the eyelids when exposed to the
light. AS the trouble progresses there
is n decided diminution in the flow Of
milk, and many times the animals be.
come entirely blind.
In treating, the most important
thing to do Is to remove the foreign
particles. This may be done by turn
ing the lids of the eyes inside out and
scraping with clean silver spoon.
If the particles have not become at
tached to the membranes of the eyes,
they may be washed out by Swinging
with warm water. After this is done
the eyes should be washed once each
day with solution of twenty grains
Of boracic acid to an ounce of water.
This can be injected into the eye with
the syringe. Another excellent wash
is five grains of acetate Of zinc and
twenty grains of laudanum to an
ounce of water This can also be an
piled with the syringe. Keep the ami
NAL in dark place so the light will
not hurt the eyes. The quarters
should be free from filth. In case
the eyes are badly afflicted, cloth
dampened with soft water should be
hung around the head so it will fall
down over the eyes.

Answer.-The seed of the sunflower
may be used as feed for q number
of fowl and birds. Chickens especially
do well when the seed is fed to them.
To some extent it is fed to horses and
cattle for medical purposes. In Russia
the oil from the sunfiower seed is used
for the same purpose that olive oil is
used in other sections of Europe and
this country. We are informed that
steps are being taken in this country
to manufacture sunfower Oil.
There Is another use for sunflowers
which is becoming quite popular in
some sections. This is growing it with
corn and horse beans and using the
mixture as silage feed, and when two
acres of this mixture are put in the
silo about half acre Of sunflower
heads are mixed with the corn and
beans. 1t is said that butter made
from the milk of cows fed with this
mixture has fine flavor and an excel
lent color. There is always a market
for the seed.
The plant requires a mellow, rich
soil. Any good garden loan or soil
which will produce corn is good seed
bed for the sunfiower. However, IT. will
make good growth upon poor soils.
Prepare the ground as you would for
Indian corn and plant the seed about
twelve inches apart in the rows, max
ing the rows about the same distance
apart as for corn. When the plants are
up they should be thinned SO they do
not stand closer than one foot in the
rows. 1t will require about twelve to
fifteen pounds of seed to plant an acre.
and the yield is from 800 to LOO
pounds Of seed per acre. A bushel will
vary from twenty-five to thirty-five
pounds.

How Sympathetic Messages Are Passed Between Dlssans Friends.

Are ycu sensitive? There is no doubt that some persons are so or ganized as to make natsral sensitives. They have remarkable intuitive pow CT, which means that they receive im- pressions easily. Supposing two sen sitives to be closely related to one another or drawn together by bond Of sympathy, and supposing them to be in different parts of the world, and the life of the one to be in danger, the first thought he would project into space would be for his distant friend. If that friend Is actively engaged at the time the message may be lost, but If he happens to be in passive state his brain will receive some impress sion, clear or confused, which will make him think of the absentee and render him anxious, as If something had gone wrong with him.

THE STORY OF THE OUTLAW.
Sad Men Of the West Classified and
 Analysed.

Emerson Hough constitutes himself the historian of the outlaw. believing the truth about the bad man" of the west is sufficiently thrilling and mean ing to present merely truth There were outlaws of all nationalities, ac. cording to Mir. Hough. but the prize takcr among them was the western white bad man, who in a land which the law could not protect. like tho great region on the frontier, reverted to the ways of Goth and Teuton for bears. There were genuine bad men and imitation bad men. and MT. HouEh thus differentiates them: Throughout the west there are two sorts of wolves-the coyote and the gray wolf Either will kill and both are lovers of blood. One is yellow at heart and the other is game all the way through. Outwardly both are wolves, and in appearance they some times grade toward each other SO closely 1t Is hard to determine tho species. The gray wolf is warrior and is respected. the coyote is & sneak and murderer, and his name is term of reproach throughout the west"
