Experiments in Molasses Feeding.

The results of experiments carried
out in Germany as to the amounts of
molasses that may with advantage be
fed to horses and cattle are worthy
of notice. For cattle it was found
that six pounds of molasses per 1000
pounds live weight is probably the
maximum daily allowance that
should be given, although eight
pounds were fed without evil effects.
Horses that do considerable work
were fed with molasses with encou-
raging results, the ration being mixed
in the proportion of seven and half
pounds of corn, seven pounds Of bran
and five pounds of moIasses. 1t was
noticed that on this diet horses per-
spired very little during hot weather.
Even when ten pounds Of molasses
per day were given to the horses, no
evil effects were noticeable, but some
difficulty was experienced in getting
the animals accustomed to it.

He had shaved off his imposing black beard,

For q long time past the police had per-
sistently watched the residence of Lemoine's
former $ cretary and confdant, who lived
in the Rue Brey, near the Arc dc Triomphe.

LOST
Found FLoArISG IN NonTH SEA.

Information was received on Thursday
that a large balloon was sighted by the
Calais steam trawler No. 239 in the North
Sea on Easter Monday evening, drifting
eastwards, with the car submerged.
The description given BY the trawler's
captain has given rise to the supposition
that it bis the missing N0i1y Chronicle ball
loon in which Mr.. Bellamy assembled, uuac-
companied, from the Crystal Palace grounds
on Easter Monday forenoon,
The trawlor steamed after the drifting
balloon, but owing to a very strong wine
failed to overtake it. Later in the evening
the wind veered more southerly, which
would drive the balloon further away into
the North Sea.
At noon on Monday, half an hour after
Mr.. Bellamy's ascent, his balloon was obs
served passing over High HaIstow, a few
miles from Chatham, going seward towards
Port Victoria and the North Sea. Those
