Feed Cows Their own Milk.

An endless chain arrangement that
on its face appears to be the most
economical scheme ever devised has
been started by Prof. Err, of the Kan
sas State Agricultural College. Prof.
Err takes the milk secured from cows
on the college farm, converts it into
a powder and feeds it to the cows, max
ing what is declared to be the cheap
est of all the COW foods.
The food invented by Prof. Err Is
made of buttermilk. He has perfected
a system of drying buttermilk ana
then converting it into Il powder This
dried buttermilk contains about 20 per
cent of protein, twice as much as cot
ton seed meal contains, and can be
manufactured for one and Il half cents
a pound. Thus a food twice as rich as
cotton seed can be manufactured at
approximately the cost of the latter.
one hundred pounds of buttermilk
will make from nint to ten pounds Of
the finished product and as the csti-
mated waste of butormili in the
creamcrics Of Kansas is 100000
pounds daily, it is figured that by the
adoption of this progress saving Of
100000 can be made yearly in Kan
saS alone

THE BOOM IN JAPAN.
Tremendous Commercial Impetus Given
by the Late War.

In the course of remark9b bic article in
Appleton's Magazine ter June, Thomas
+. Willard tells some strange truths
about Japan. incidentally he says:
The tremendous impulse -iveH to COM
mercial and industrial activities in Ja-
pan since the war has attracted much at
tention, and been the cause of much COM
ment, usually optimistic. Since peace
was declared Gaking the latest oliClal
statemeuU there have been ia new en-
tCrprises capitalized or old capltallza-
lions increased. with an aggregate capt.
tai of Sl9T ,15l ,5l4 gold. This is nearly
one-third the total capitalized industry
of the country previous to the war. The
enterprises represented in this enormous
capitalization cover Il wide field, but they
nearly all belong in the category of what
may be termed modern industries i'll the
sense applied III Japan. For instance,
there are iifty-One new electrical com
panies with an aggregate capital of SoI.-
100000 gold; ten new navigation aud
dock companies, with a total capital OF
$4,000, O0O: > new insurance companies,
with n total capital of SI,JOO.0OO New
banking concerns aggregate capital OF
81 ,OO0 900. There are eleven new steam
railway companies, with %lOOOO.UOO cap
ital; fourteen new mining companies,
with $1,000 900 capital; while old Corpo-
rations have increased their capital S3I,-
100000. To many of them direct govern
ment assistance is being given, while
nearly all of them have had or hope to
secure stimulation through the govern
mcnt by indirect methods.
This enumeration of the new CONNER
cial activities of the nation does not, how
ever, include the greatest enterprise of
all. This is the national corporation.

so far as its components have become
public, is to include the government,

marshal. and is to be thrown open to

The American Carriage Horse.

The development of the American
carriage horse at the Colorado Agri-

Prof. w. l.. Carlyle of the Colorado
Agricultural College, in the Twentieth
Century Farmer. At the present tilSe
twenty two brood mares are to be
found on the farm, and of these nine
teen are expected to foal this year
Fourteen very high-class ycarling colts,
by the stallion Cannon are eXemplify-
ing The success of the work undertaken.
At the present time seven very fine
foalS have come to hand this year and
the indications are that they are supe-
rior to their brothers and sisters of last
year. The station and college, in co
operation with the government. will in
crease the brood mares to thirty-five
head during the summer, and only
those of the very highest class will be
secured.

Fattening the Bride.

In Tunis, when n man wants to take
another wife, he picks out girl, and
then carries to her father pair of
bracelets and pair of anklcts from one
of the other ladies of his household.
The bracelets and anklets are slipped
on the young woman, and several
months are allowed for her fattening
She must fatten until she completely fills
the four ornaments, or otherwise the
man has n right to refuse her.
For in Tunis fat is beauty, and a
permanently slender girl has no chance
of marriage.

Must Raise Many Crops.

Twenty years ago hundreds of North
Dakota sarmers bought butter, eggs
and even potatoes and cabbages at the
village stores, but they were not real
farmers, merely wheat raiScrs. They
depended entirely upon one crop, and
when that failed, distress followed
James j. Hill quickly taught them the
folly of that kind of farming, and to-day
the States diversified crops are equal
to those of any other Northern State
The educational movement was not
that Mr.. Hill had any love for the
farmers then, nor has now, but he had
a big railway to feed and was forced
to teach the farmer how to produce the
freight. Now the experiment stations
are carrying on the education com
menced by Mr.. Hill and are doing it
better.

These When Running at High Speed

In a letter on the "Mechanics of High
Speed Cars on Curves" in the Street
Railway journal the writer says that Il
matter of very great importance on
curves of hgh-speed electric roads has
been entirely overlooked by the engi-
neels as far as is shown by their pub
lished calculations. This is the fact that
the rapidly rotating armature Of an cleo
trio motor tends to maintain itself in its
line of motion and resists very strongly
any attempt to swerye it in any direction
from that line.
