NO MUSIC IN THE JAPANESE.
AZ n People They Are Not Moved by
Melodious Sounds.

There is no music in Japan except
that made by the birds, the wind, the
running streams and the roaring
waterfalls, says a writer in the Mil
waukee Sentinel. The people have
no music in them, they do not sing
or even whistle, or play any musical
instrument worthy Of the name. They
are not moved by the concord of
sweet sounds" They have a few rude
instruments, but the sounds they give
forth are harsh, inharmonious and al
together unmusical. There is a din
ner band at the Grand hotel, Yokoha-
ma, and there was a brass band at the
imperial garden party, the only bands
! have heard in all Japan. Even at the
geisha dances, the most popular in
Japan, the music is primitive and dis
cordant. And the dances are worse
than the music. 1t is not in any
sense dancing as we know it, it is
simply a series of'posturings, accom-
panied by the flirting fans, flags, or
handkerchiefs, but lacking the motion
and inspiration that thrills and fas-
c1nates In the merry mazes of the CO.
tillon and the waltz. The religious
dances are slow, dignifed and impress
stve, but have none of the life and
intoxfcation that gives interest and
charm to the participant or %beholder.

Have a Fellow.

The effort o. the Ladies' Home Jour-
nal to prod pastors and church men,
bers to greater effectiveness in well
coming strangers to public services may
lead to OVERRIDING hospitality in various
ways. One Of these ways was revealed
to a warm-hearted Western pastor.
Coming down from the pulpit after the
evening he found a stranger in
the person Of a fair-haired Swede, and,
greeting her with a cordial handclasp,
said: Il am very glad to see you. I
want you to feel at home here. I'd like
to become acquainted with you. If
you'll give your address I'll call and
see you" Thank you," she replied,

GATOR ON THE RAMPAGE.
Edifying Story That Is vouched for by
the Georgia Ananias.

Eyes" said the fisherman, "the man
had fshed all the forenoon, an hadn't
got a nibble, SO he took another swal-
Ter out the jug, pulled of his boots. an
lay down on the river bank an went
to sleep. As soon as he went to
snorin' good, a alligator that had been
watchin' him all the mornin' crawled
I'D an swallered his boots, likewise
the jug, with bout half a gallon In 1t,
I reckon. The cork came out, and, OF
course, the gator got the full benefit
O the whisky. which so turned its
head that it dashed the water with its
tail till the river was a foamin' mass,
after which 1t crawled up on the bank
agin an made desp'rit efforts to climb
trees an turn double-somersaults, an
do all manner Of impossible things!"
Why didn't 1t swallow the fisher
man, instead Of his boot?" some one
asked.

teller, cant stand everything. They

1t Varies with the Capacity Of the
Animal,

The amount Of milk for calves
varies greatly with the capacity Of
the calf to take it. The amount
recommended to be fed also varies
greatly, SOME authorities recommend
ing twice as much as others. With
reference to this question 1t will be
correct to say that during the earlier
weeks Of the life of the calf no ad-
1uncts will be found superior or equal
to milk. 1t is also true at the same
time that as o as calves can utilize
other food to good advantage. 1t will
be found cheaper than milk. 1t fol-
lows, therefore, that the calves should
be given all the milk that they can
digest properly until they can make q
good use Of other substitutes that Will
take the place of milk.
But care should be taken not to
overfeed milk. good as 1t is, cautions
the Orange Judd Farmer. This can
be easily done. The indications OF
overlooking soon show themselves in
deranged digestion. and such derange-
ment is commonly indicated by scour-
ings. The moment that such an indi-
cation appears the amount of milk fed
should be reduced.
1t is very evident from what has
been said that it will not be possible
to name the amounts of milk to feed
hat will be suitable for calves of all
ages, but it may be possible to state
average amounts. 1t would seem safe
to say that during the first week OF
the life of a calf it will safely take
from six to eight pounds of milk, the
latter quantity being fed at the close
of the week. Strong, vigorous calves
may take as much as ten pounds. but
ordinarily the smaller quantity is the
safer one. Then add n pound OF
milk every week with advance in the
age of the calf until it is, say, ten
weeks old.

Stomach Worms Kill Many Lambs.

The stomach worm gives us the
most trouble after the lambs are
started. l think the losses altogether
from the time the lambs come till
they are mature sheep will be about
70 ner cent. writes a Putnam county
(Ohio) farmer in REVIEW.
We lose more lambs at time OF birth
than at any other time. The intes'
final parasites give us much trouble
and every now and then we lose a
lamb from them. Dogs have occa-
stoned much loss in this vicinity, for
every once in awhile they make a
raid on the sheep. We occasionally
lose a sheep from getting on its back
in a slight depression, where 1t will
die in time If it is not helped up.

SILAGE INSTEAD OF GRAIN.
Experiment Which Proves Value OF
Former Over Latter.

The Ohio experiment station has
been carrying on several investiga'
tons to determine to what extent ST.
lage may be made to take the place Of
grain in feeding dairying cattle. Two
rations were fed, carrying practically
the same amount of dry matter.
In one ration over so per cent. Of
this dry matter was derived from
grain. In the other ration over 81
per cent. of the dry matter was de-
rived from grain, no silage being fed.
The cows fed with the silage ration
produced 96.7 pounds Of milk and sos
pounds of butter fat per 100 pounds OF
dry matter.
The COWS fed on the grain ration
produced 8.13 pounds Of milk and 80
pounds of butter fat per 100 pounds
of dry matter.
The cost Of feed per 100 pounds OF
milk was 6S.7 cents with the silage
ration, and $1.055 with the grain
ration.
The cost of feed per 100 pounds OF
butter fat was 13.1 cents with the
silage ration and 22.1 cents with the
grain ration.
The average net profit per cow per
month lover cost of labor was S5.S64
with the silage ration and $2.465 with
the grain ration.
