subordinates, Assistant Secretary

The exclusive Boston families on the

A Wonderful Clock.

An electric clock without hands Is
exhibited in Chicago. It's pendulum
weights more than 5000 pounds. 1t
contains 5,4s5 colored bulbs and over
mile of wire. The minutes are in
.dicated by sixty series of lights, each
series containing thirty-two globe
covered bulbs, raidiating from an or
namental centerpiece to the outer
edge Of the dial Shorter rows Of diff
ferent colored lights indicate the
hour, and these change their position
twelve times. during each sixty minu-
ties. The seconds are shown by sixty
lights placed at equal distances
around the extreme outer edge Of the
face. The hour figures are three feet
high, outlined in colored lights. Each
second the illumination in the outer
circe Of light moves forward n bulb,
and when the dial has been entirely
circled, the lights indicating the min
ute also advance, and the hour hand,
formed by lights, makes its.slow jour

sweetelned Faith.

Recently the Register called atten-
ton to the testimony of a prominent
physician that the proportion of the
use of drugs is declining. Added evi-
dence now comes from England to the
same effect. A proprietary pill wide
ly used and popular in the United
Kingdom has been found, on analysis,
to. contain nothing but pure sugar.
Yet il cures, as the testimonials prove.
There is no reason to doubt the tes-
timonials. We can't all be straight
believers in the faith cure. Sweet is
faith. but sweeter still is the faith
that is founded on the sugar pill. No
doubt they cure. Did not the old New
England doctor, generations ago,
make pills of bread dough, stain them
without with rnubarb, and with them
cure half the ills his patients evidenc-
ed? He was a tyro, it appears. The
inventor of the sugar pill has greatly
improved on him. Long live the SUI
gar pill. May Is march on to conquer
all the ills OF the flesh. 1t is cheaper
than quinine, and produces no
"head." Rarely sweet is sweetened

Gown Versus Oats as Horse Feed.

80
The Ohio station recently conduct
ed some experiments to test the wide
spread belief that oats are superior
to other grain as a feed for horses.
Six mature grade Percheron geldings
were fed on a basal ration of clover
and timothy hay, three receiving oats
and three corn as a supplementary
ration. Estimating corn to be worth
forty cents per bushel, oats thirty
cents per bushel, and hay SIS per ton
at the time the experiments were
made, it was found that the average
cost of food per hour of work was
3.3 cents for the corn-fed horses and
4.54 cents for those fed oats. The use
Of corn to the exclusion of other grain
for a periodic of forty-eight weeks was
not found detrimental to the health
OF work horses and they endured hard:
work during the hot weather as well
as those receiving oats. Whenamixed,
(clover and timothy hay was fed
to mature geldings at general farm
work, ear corn was practically as
efficient, pound for pound, as oats. A
drop in weight of the corn-fed horses
coincident with the beginning of the
use Of shelled corn indicates that ear
corn is to be preferred above shelled
corn for work horses.

Feeding the Crops.

The noted millionaire farmer, David
Rankin, Of Missouri, says:
I have been asked why I always
feed all my corn, and I always say
first, I find it profitable to feed it, be-
cause in that way I a get full value
out Of it, and secondly, I also gain an
immense amount Of fertilizer, and
then to haul my corn to the railroad
to. ship would be a big job. And,
further, I do not believe in selling
raw material. You see, I run: my
farming business something on the
plan Of the manufacturing industries
of the country. I want to sell the
finished product, and can do so only
by feeding all I raise to stock. If by
doing so, I gain only an average of
81 a head for the cattle and hogs /
feed, you see it pays ne. But, of
course, I expect to make more than
that.
I would recommend to every farm
er to feed his crops rather than haul
the grain of the place. My observa-
tion is that a great many farmers do
not carry out their work as far as
they can. They sell too much raw
material and not enough finished
product. It is true, there are years
that the return from a crop might be
greater, but year in and year out, it
will pay you to feed all you raise.

CoIors For Houses.

The safe colors for a house, besides
red, arc white, gray, yellow and
brown. Yellow or gray, with white
trimmings, suits many a plain pitch
rooted OR square colonial house.
Grays and browns are good for ugly
nondescript ones; the grays always
being %pleasanter on the yellow shades
than on cold blue tones. White sug-
gests the formal type again. 1t is a
very good color for a country house,
showing IL up from a distance in fas-
cinating glimpses. for it needs trees
about it, and flowers to sparkle
against its walls. Such a house will
be attractive when the leaves are gone
from the trees, for the bare boughs
will serve to soften the Effect

Beneficial Rcad-Maklng..

The Importance Of road-building in
civilization will receive illustration
in the completion of 300 miles of mac
.adamized highways in the Philippines.
These bring isolated barbarians into
contact with populous centers. This
is a modern application of the famil-
iar policy of Rome, whose roads were
built so well that at many points they
are today available for traffic. They
penetrated the rayless gloom of Ger
man forests, they crossed on viaducts
the gullies Of the Apprentices, they
provided a firm footing forsthe legion
across the marshes Of the Iberian pen
%insula, and made a straight path
through many a wilderness. Just as
in our day civilization in a new
country huddles close to the steel
rails and the whistle Of the locomo-
tive, Sc IN the days Of Horace and
Virgil the Goths and the Vandals
hocked to their villages, and came TO
the meeting Of the ways not merely to
fight the Roman, legionary, but to
learn of the "mercator" what tbs
rest of the world was like beyond
their bristIing mountains and rock
bound ~estuaries. Thus in this Gay
the head-hunters and bandits CT the
Philippines will be taught the arts of
peace. But the work, it is estin ted,
will still require seventeen years for
completion. The benefits of similar
work in Porto Rico hav become ap-
parent.

Lamb Feeding. '

Corn and the bearded or Scotch;
barley, when fed with alfalfa, were
about equari in value for mutton pro-
duction. Barley in this test proved
to be a shade the better. Twenty
seven per cent less alfalfa and twenty
eight per cent. less grain was required
where barley replaced emmer in a
ration.
Grade lambs with mutton sires
made greater gains, conditions being
similar, than did Rambouillet lambs,
though a record of food consumption
foc each class was not kept.
The Western stockman has a feed
in barley that is of great value for
meat production, and may be used to
advantage as a corn substitute

Curing Glover Hay.

l nave read a SOOQ ued III 1dlm
journals about curing alfalfa, etc.,
under, hay. caps, but have never seen
my method published. While / do
not pretend to say it is perfect, it
gives the best results of any method
I have ever seen tried, considering
quality of hay and expense of max
ing it.
I start cutting just as soon as the
clover comes into bloom, and try to
arrange to have it all cut by the time
the heads begin to turn brown. MY
haying outfit consists of n mower,
one side delivery rake, one hay loader
and rack wagon, a two heel cart att
tached to hosting rope Of harpoon
fork.
I have a seven-eigiiths bolt set In
axle Of cart, and a ring tied into rope,
and whenever fork full Of hay is
dumped, the driver simply throws the
ring of the bolt, and man Oh the.
wagon can have harpoon back and
nearly ready with another forkfllnsby
the time the team gets back Illsthis
way it takes only a few minutes TO
unload a. large load Of hay, usually
about five forks full.
My way of curing is as follows:
Cut what will make about four or
five loads of hay. After the dew is
off start, say, at $50 or 9 o'clock.
Throw it into windrows with a, side.
delivery rake just before the dew falls
in the evening. The next morning
NOW until about IL a. M, and then
take the rake and tip the windrows,
made the day before, upside down,
and Immediately after dinner you can
start hauling in the barn. With two
men, a good hay loader and a boy to.
drive team on hay fork, you can have
the four or five loads Of cured hay
in the barn in time to rake up what
you cut in the morning, If you have.
but a short distance to haul.
BY following the system of cutting
Just what you think you can haul in
the next day from noon till evening,
you will be surprised how much hay
can be put into the barn with little
expense. My bill for hired help for
three years has run from fifty to sixty
cents per ton to put hay into the
barn, all work hired except my own,
And you will be surprised at the qual-
ity of the hay. When you throw
down hay for the stock you IAN smell
it all over the barn. No dust, no
musty smell, and lots Of clover heads
just as red as when cut. Horses and
colts will winter on it without any
grain, and do fine.
In last it rains and your hay is
in windrows do not scatter it out, but
take your side delivery rake and drive
alongside each windrow just close
enough to kick it up into a fluffy
windrow and let the wind blow
through it. Do this about twice, and
your hay will be ready for the barn,
and you can scarcely tell it has been
wet.
If any one has a better system, I
hope to hear from him, for good hay
is a hobby Of mine.-J. V. Perry, In
Hoard's Dairyman.
