Composition of Wheat Bran

Notes are given on the composition,
digestibility and fertilizing ingre-
dients of wheat bran as compared
with other concentrated feeding stuffs,
and two feeding experiments with
COWS are reported in a Massachusetts
state report by ]. B. Lindsey. The
roughage in the two rations COM
pared consisted of hay and silage and
the grain feed of cottonseed meal and
-four middlings To this was added
either bran or silage with corn meal
or corn-and-cob meal In one of the
experiments the results were slightly
in favor of the bran ration, while in
the other the so-called silage ration
gave the best results.
The author concludes that for small
herds the quantity of purchased grain
may be reduced to three to four
pounds daily by substituting home
grown corn in place of wheat bran 1t
is suggested that the grain mixture
may consist of one and one-half
pounds cotton-seed meal, two pounds
flour midd4ings and two and one-half
to three pounds corn meal or corn
and-cob meal. Malt sprouts may be
substituted for the wheat cats or rye
middlings. Where the feeding cannot
be closely supervised and where it is
desired to feed more than five to seven
pounds of grain daily, it is considered
advisable that the grain mixtures
should consist of one-third to one-half
of wheat bran.

BIG CATS MOST DANGEROUS.
Even Grizzly Bears and Rogue Ele-
plants Must Take Second Place.

Even Grizzly Bears and Rogue Ele-
plants Must Take Second Place.
Of all wild animals, including the
rhinoceros with his frightful charge
and his dreadful horn, including the
rogue elephant with his unbounded
strength, his marvellous cunning and
his villainous trunk, and including
that gray shaggy rogue, the American
grizzly" with his rib-crushing hug,
his ponderous paw and his hot, reek-
ing nav, no beast is as dangerous to
man as any one of the big cats. For
besides the mouth provided with teeth
that can crush through the leg bone
of man as if it were pipestem, each
foot is provided with five poniard-like
claws, pointed like needles and from
three to four and half inches long.
AS the beast strikes with these he
draws the claws in, keeping hold OF
muscles and tendons and ligaments
and tearing them out of the flesh untli
they snap like rubber bands, so that
unless the victim succumbs it will be
months and months and sometimes
years and years before he can regain
the use Of an injured member.
But not only do these talons tear.
Curious to say, considering that al
though the claws are needle pointed
the edges are dull as the tip of little
finger, a cut with one of these hooks
IL like the cut of dagger.

FREEING ALFALFA
SEED FROM DODDER
BY j. H. Eu STAGE and F. C. Stewart,
New York Experiment Station.

Doddef is yellow, threal-like, twin
ing weed which is exceedingly trou-
blesome in alfalfa fields. Many fields
have been completely ruined by it.
1t is not injurious to other crops lex
cept red clover), but once established
in an alfalfa field it is impossible to
eradicate it without killing the alfalfa.
In most cases, dodder gets into the
field through the use of impure alfalfa
or clover seed. Hence it is of the ut
most Importance that no dodder-in-
tested seed be sown. AS the greater
part of the alfalfa seed on the market
is more or less infested with dodder,
it is difficult to obtain dodder-free
seed.
If seeds are to be examined, the
samples should contain at least one
ounce of seed taken from the bottom
of the bag. However, this method of
securing pure seed is not entirely safe,
and is often unsatisfactory 1t is some
times difficult to obtain representative
samples, and seedsmen do not always
pie.
l believe thatthe safest and best
method is for farmers to hand-sift
their alfalfa seed. Dodder seeds, being
much smaller than alfalfa, are easily
removed by sitting through wire
sieve having 20 neshes to the inch.
Unfortunately, ready-made sleeves of
this size are not readily obtainable at
hardware stores; but cheap, service
able sieve for the purpose may be
made by constructing a light wooden
frame about IL inches square by three
inches deep and lacking over the bot:
tom of it 20-mesh wire screen made
Of No. 80 English gauge) round wire.
Some hardware dealers do not carry
such screen in stock, but they can
easily procure it.
With such sieve, a man should be
able to clean from five to ten bushels
of alfalfa seed per day. One-fourth to
one-half pound of seed should be put
shaken during one-half minute In
order that the work may be uniformly
thorough, the operator should use a
cup holding not over one-half pound
thereby making it impossible to get
too large quantity at one time. A
watch should be kept constantly in
sight, and no more than two patches
of seed should be sifted in one min.
ute. Experiments indicate that by the
above method almost any alfalfa seed
found on the market may be made
practically free from dodder, and safe
to SOW Various other small weed
seeds, broken seeds and dirt, as well
as some of the smaller alfalfa seeds

HANDLING Of THE
HOG AFTER KILLING
Carcass Must Be Thoroughly Cooled
Before Cutting Up and
Curing.

In order to cure pork so that it will
keep, the carcass must be thoroughly
cooled of its body heat, and should
therefore hang for "a hours or more,
according to the temperature, before
it is cut up. The mistake is often
made of hanging hogs out in severe
weather, allowing them to freeze on
the bone may still retain some of the
animal heat when the carcass is cut
up. The result will be a souring, and
speedy decay will set in at the center
of the hams and shoulders that from
all outward appearances will seem in
good condition.
With large percentage of fat, side
pork will not become over salt and
there is no danger from over sailing
except to the leaner portions Of the
carcass. Yet there is no need to be
wasteful of salt because it is inexpen-
pensive. Pork may be sailed with or
without brine, both methods being
about equally popular and satisfac-
tory. If brine is used there will be
no danger from insects CT mice during
the picking process. The brine ex-
tracts the blood and other juices from
contaminate the whole case of pork
unless given attention. The way to
prevent this trouble is to give the brine
an occasional boiling, skimming off
the impurities as they rise to the sur
face. In this way the brine may
strength. for any length of time. In
making brine, add salt to the water
until it is sufficiently strong to float
an egg or potato. 1t should be stirred
violently while the salt is being added.
What is known as dry sailing is
perhaps a little easier, requiring less
work. This method is to salt the
pork in barrels or boxes without the
addition of water or brine AS this
way does not exclude flies or maggots
from the meat, care should be taken to
cover the barrels with something that
will keep them out. When flies have
access to pork they deposit their eggs
on the meat These turn to maggots
or shippers and soon the meat is unfit
for use. Pork should be allowed to
stay in the brine or dry sailing casks
for six weeks and should receive more
salt, if necessary, during this period,
and The Farmer suggests that salt
petre added to the salt at the rate
of about four ounces to 100 pounds of
pork will greatly improve the taste Of
the meat
AS each layer Of pork is packed in
the barrel thick sprinkling of salt
should be spread over it before the
= next layer of pork is put on. Pack
the hams and shoulders In the bot
tom of the cask and the side meat,
hooks, chimes, etc., on top of them.
Many farmers prefer to add sugar
or molasses to their brine, in order to
make the meat sweet, or, as it Is
more commonly called, sugar cured.
This is done by adding to the salt
some sugar or molasses and salt-petre,
dissolving these in the water and pour
ing the pickle back over the meat. A
good recipe for this is as follows:
For every hundred pounds of pork use
four ounces of salt-peter, three pints
Of mQlasses and two pounds of brown

pieces.
Most farmers prefer to smoke then
neat and have special smoke-houses
ouilt on the farms for this purpose.
Hickory or oak bark makes very
rood smoke, although corn cobs will
do very well as a substitute. The
meat should be smoked until it is a
good, rich brown, and then hung up
n a dry, cool room, and in some way
protected from flies. The hams and
shoulders should be encased in can
vas sacks, as this meat is the most
valuable part of the hogs and is gen.
orally selected by flies on which to lay
their eggs. Where there is danger
from rats and mice as well as from in
sects, the meat should be hung from
swinging shelf or from floor joists
on the ceiling above. The smoking
process must not be hurried. Ten
days of steady smoking in ordinary
cases will be sufficient, unless the
pieces of meat are exceptionally large
or thick.
