Their Relative Values.

CoItonseed meal at the rate OF or
pounds per day can safely be fed
to cattle, even. if there are hogs to
follow. Cottonseed meal fed exclu
sively, or more than three pounds per
day, is likely in time to have some
bad effects on the cattle. and most
certainly on hogs.
The meal from cotton grown in the
western part of Texas is not as valu
able as the meal from cotton grown
in the central portion of the cotton
belt.
In short, cottonseed meal is richer
in protein than oil meal. Oil meal
however, is the most palatable and
safest.
There appears TO be quite diner

in which it is grown.

Talk to the Point.

Some of our agricultural exchanges
and some speakers seem to think
they are talking vastly wise by reit-
Grating the statement that there is
more difference in cows than in
breeds. Well what of it? What
next? How are you editors : and
speakers going to make use of that
sort of talk in practical way? How
are the farmers going to use it? To
say that does not lead the farmer to
help himself to breed a better COW.
Individuality is a great thing. But
all there is to breeds is certain indi-
vidual characteristics, fixed, crystal
lied, SO that like will produce like to
an appreciate extent. To rail out
against breed is nonsense. The plain
farmer knows that He knows if ne
wants a large flow of medium quality
of milk that his chances of obtaining
it are greatly increased by using GER
tain breeds. If he wants lesser
quantity of milk and of greater rich
ness in butter fat or of higher color
he knows where to go for these quail
tiles. That gives him leeway. He
knows, if he knows anything, that
there are poor cows in any breed
But all that talk is mere general
ization 1t doesn't lead to anything
in particular. Maybe that is the rea-
son so many use it. 1t is easier to
generalize than 1t is to teach, to
show the way What the average
farmer really needs is to be taught
some of the principles of dairy breed
ing such as successful men have fol-
lowed. He needs to be taught the
greater profit of better care, better
stables, better feeding. He needs to
be instructed in the solid, sound prin-
ciples of dairy farming. We all need
this instruction, editors and speakers
as we'll as farmers. None. of us have
arrived at that goal yet. But let us
have done with this silly talk against
breeds. Might as well talk against
the division of this government into
states.-Hoards Dairyman.

sERMoNETTE.

Apart from the incidents Of
Sabbath breaking here recorded,
which has to do with Jewish his
tory alone, we have a broader
question of the observance of the
one day in seven as a day of
rest and worship, with which to
deal.
The Jewish dispensation has
ended, and we are no longer I'M
der the Mosaic law. but the eter-
nal principles which found ex-
preston in that law are as i'm
portant and binding to-day as
ever.
The same observance of the
Sabbath day is not incumbent
upon mankind to-day, but the
same need of rest from secular
toll and of upbuiIding Of the
! soul in Cody thought and pur-
pose is as desirable and neces-
sary to full rounded human life
i now as it was under the old
Jewish law.
Jesus freed the world from
! the burden of mere Journalism of
! Sabbath day observance, and re-
veaIed a new conception of the
! days purposes and possibilities
as God had intended them.
! He broke almost every pre-
conceived notion which had
) grown up around the day,
: and herein was the chief source
: of complaint of the Jewish
rulers against him, and gave
! them ground to charge that he
was destroying the Mosaic law.
But Jesus said that he had not
come to destroy the law, but to
fulfill it. Not to put greater bur-
dens upon mankind, but to free
it from the burdens which in
the name of the law had been
laid upon it.
Two very important decIara-
tons were made by Jesus in ref
erence to the Lords day, the
day of rest, and that they are
authoritative is certain for he
stated positively that he was
"Lord of the Sabbath"
From these two statements all
necessary deductions can be
made for the proper observance
of the day.
First: "The Sabbath was made
for man, and not man for the
{ Sabbath"
! The second is in the form Of
question which Jesus put to his
enemies and to which there can
be but one answer: sis it law
! full on the Sabbath days to do
s good or evil? To save life, or
Z to destroy it?"

Scripture Authority 10:

Historical Difficulty.-The chief. indeed
the only real historical difficulty in the
narrative, is to determine the time of the
dedication. of the wall, whether in the
32nd year Of Artaxerxes, or before. The
expression in Neh. 1871, ION that day.,
seems to fix the reading of the law to
the same day as the dedication (see l2:43).
But, IL so, the dedication must have been
after Nehemiahs return from Babylon
mentioned 13:O. Then, If the wall took
only 81 days to complete nehemiah 6:l5),
and was begun Immediately Nehemiah
entered upon the government. how came
the dedication to be deferred till IL years
afterward? The answer to this probably
is, that in the first place, the 81 days are
to be reckoned from the resumption OF
the work after AIS and a time exceeding
two years may have elapsed from the
commencement of the building. But even
then 1t would not be ready for dedication.
There were the gates to be hung, perhaps
much rubbish to be cleared, and the
ruined houses in the immediate vicinity
of the walls to be repaired. Still, even
these causes would not be adequate to
account for the delay of ~ years. One
cause Immediately presents itself, viz,
that Nehemiah's leave of absence from
the Persian court, mentioned in 2:6, may
have drawn to a close shortly after COM
pletion of the walls, and before the 9TH
err aforementioned works were COM
pleted. The last words of chapter point
| to some new effort of Tobiah to inter-
| rupt his work, and the expression used
seems to indicate that it was the threat
of being considered as a rebel by the
king

Treatment and Handling Of Young

Treatment and Handling Of Young
Bears.
Paper by Z. Hart of Grandview,
read before the Sherman meeting OF
the Texas Swine Breeders Associa-
ton:
WheE the pig Is farrowed begin
treatment by treating the dam inrthe
usual way. until the pig is three or
four months old, then build small
pen near the trough where the SOW
is fed, and leave a small hole by
which the pigs may enter, and in the
pen place a shallow trough and begin
feeding the pigs on ration or two
parts corn chops to one part shorts
mixed with milk to the consistency
of thick stop, and feed morning and
night about all the pigs will eat up
clean, and at the same time feed the
cause her to give full flow OF milk.
Feed in this manner until the pigs
are about two and one-half or three
months old, letting the SOW and the
pigs have free access to the run OF
green pasture of whatever kind is
best adapted to your climate and soil.
then wean the pigs by taking the
sow away from the pigs, entirely out
of their sight, and continue to feed
the pigs in the same way.
II there are any sow pigs in the
litter, separate them from the boars,
and place few bred sows in the
pasture with the young boars in or
der that they may be kept quiet, and
also keep them on their feed Also
by having sows with young boars it
will have tendency to keep them
from walking around the fence, which
is one of the worst habits that q
young boar can acquire. Manage to
keep them on their feet as much as
possible, but at the same time keep
them quiet. BY treating in this way
it will not be necessary to take the
young boars walking every morning
in order to prevent them from get
ting too fat.
OF course you will feed the young
boars and bred sows separate, as
they will require entirely different
feed. Continue to feed in the same
way until corn gets in the stage OF
roasting ear, then begin feeding green
corn gradually, still feeding twice a
day in connection with corn chops
and shorts. Roasting ears contain
a certain amount of starch or milk,
and there is nothing on earth that
will develop bone and muscle faster
than milk.
Arrange to have plenty of fresh
water and shade for the young boars,
but above all things avoid mudholes
| to wallow in. Keep on good terms
with young boars by spending as
much time with them as you can, all
the time giving them kind and gen.
| tie treatment in order to prevent them
| from becoming vicious. Never fight
them under any circumstances. AL

EASTER EGGS AS PRESENTS.
Custom That Is Prevalent in the North
ern Part of England.

In the north of England, on Easter
day. the little boys go out begging for
Easter eggs, which are generally beau
tifully colored and gilded. They play
with the eggs, bowling them along the
ground, tossing them like balls in the
air and even fighting battles with
them in order to see whose eggs will
rroye the strongest There is still
suryfving in he north of England the
beautiful custom of making mutual
rresents OF Easter eggs among the
cbf,xren Of intimate families. The
eggs are first colored and then are
carved in artistic designs with pen
Lpife. The shells are marked cff into
tbree divisions, one part inclosing the
rame of the child to whom it is to be
given. another holding little cupid,
and the third portion decorated with
some kind of picture amounting to

The sheep has the most delicate
sense of smell of any domestic ami
nal, and the racks and troughs from
which they eat will offend more or
less if not kept perfectly clean. They
will not eat unclean food nor drink
unclean water, unless compelled by
hunger and thirst to do so. Cleanli-
ness is matter of necessity and
must be kept in force.
Another very important feature Is
to keep the animals as quiet as pos
sible. They are very timid, and dogs
and boisterous men and boys should
not be permitted to go about them
