Feeding Ground Grain Means A
Very Great Saving TO Farmers

sideration one can readily see that he
will make good wages for the extra
time and work required.
The saving of at least 1: cents ON,

considerable size during the year II

| 1t is claimed that the feed for COWS
| should be given in an easily assimila-
BILE form so that every possible bit Of
putriment may be used.
In test made by the New Jersey
| Experiment Station it was found that
the returns from corn and cob meal
exceeded those from earn corn by "a
per cent for milk flow, and As per
cent in the yield of fat.
The following table shows the aver
age ration. and the average daily yield
per COW in milk and fat:
Lot Ear corn. lbs; wheat bran,
lbs; corn stover, 10 lbs; hay, "a lbs
Milk, 20.2; fat, SO.

wheat bran, lbs; corn stover, 10
lbs: hay, s.4 lbs, Milk 22.1: fat. .93.
OF course this data will not be of
much interest to the regular dairyman
. who have silos and feed ensilage; be-
cause corn in that form produces even
better results in the flow of milk and
in fat production than the ground corn.
But the ground feed proposition will
/ be worth considering by those who
keep only few cows, and do not have
the ensilage to feed.
Corn meal Is a very good feed for
calves that are being raised OH skim
milk because it supplies the fat re-
quired to keep the calf in thrifty con-
dition.
1t is said that poor results in calf
raising come from improper methods
in feeding, and may occur when feed
ing whole milk by hand as well as
when feeding skim Snilk. The fat in the
milk does not produce the growth in
the young animal, but goes to main
tain the heat in the body and to sup
ply fat for body tissue. This fat can
be more creaply supplied in the form
of corn meal or other grain.
"At the Illinois Experiment Station
(Bul. 1888 five lots Of choice feeders,
averaging 1000 lbs. each, were fed for

corn meal, made the largest gains, and
required less concentrates per 100 lbs.

I slipped out once-a month"; year >;
How far apast was 1t crept
Out those barred doors in JOY and fear
And slipt away with catlike step:
hunted up street. cross. and dawn

But never once in this great town
Did find door. or street, or home.

Where it had been the pleasant lane
Was bald of path and bare of fence,
And where l looked for home in vain
Two broad walled hulks stared dull
and dense.
And people eyed me strangely-yes-
My face is wild. my hair, my gown,
But whose would not be, pitiless
AS these fiends watch me, up and
down.
I may not hide from them-and yet
Sometimes l wake, SO calmly glad,
So bright, SO free-but l forget
My soul it their's-my HEART is bad!
And as l stood man came out.
A worn and weary old-faced man;
My John, if he was old no doubt
Would, with great sorrow, look as
wan.
And that old man, SO gently kind,
So firm and gentle, coaxed me in
And shut the staring mob behind
With all the boot and roar and din.
And l walked there-my Heart-how
sweet
How like Gods own the short hour
was;
And he and lit passed US fleet
And yet life long, as Gods hour does.
For it was my John-old and worn
And winter haired than father died i;
AS if a million wounds were torn
From the sad days that past him ride.
How happy we were, God will know !;
Our two old selves for one sweet hour,
How happy-happy: Woe-or woe
Those Demon Masks that grin and
lower.
Back-keep back-I want to think:
Oh, let me hug my one sweet thing
And as ! sat those black things stink
And bind on me the chains they bring.
Clash! f! All my happy dream was
gone.
And l loved it-so calm, SO bright
The waking came, as birds at dawn
Greet with their song the morning
light.
And as cursed. and laughed. and tore
And fought them with my thrice strap
ped hands,
My John dropped kneeling on the floor
And tore to loose my leathern bands.
And his sad eyes. how they bled tears;
/ saw the sobs rise to his throat
Fears
That dug around me their old moat.
And then their faces dropped their
mask
Again the Demons as of yOre;
And the arch Devil piled his task
OF impish torment, as he tore.
There! Hear it padding down the hall /;
Pad-padding, then peaks through the
bars,
A white face grinning-then a call
That through the empty silence jars.
And jangling laughter-hear it's slap,
In little fading Unlike voice,
And cursing chatter-voice-and snap;
Well thou arch devil may rejoice,
All, we'll thou may-grin in the hall
And dance and skip along the ewes:
It's thine own confines-our hell-All
The ruin of pleasure our life leaves.
Leaves?-"My baby come here

My pretty cherub-mother's pet;
