RECALLS LITERARY MYSTERY
Rev. Mr.. Wolfe, Author Of Burial Of
Sir John Moore" Buried at
Queenstown.

A literary mystery of hundred
years ago 10 recalled by the special
centenary number. recently issued. OF
the Newry Telegraph, an Ulster
ti-weekly. In its pages April 10,
1877, under the simple head Of Poe
try" appeared what Byron called. the
most perfect ode Of the language"
The Burial of Sir John Moore" By
ron or Campbell or any Of the others
TO whom this poem was yariousiy
ascribed would doubtless have been
proud to claim 1t. But the author was
the obscure curate Of Ballyclog, in
yyronne, Rev. Charles Wolfe, and
f.e fame Of the piece was but pos
thnmous fame for him. Not until his
death, OF consumption, In 1928, at the
early age OF thirty-two, did the author
ship become known to the world. And
Wolfe, who wrote much other verse
OF merit, Is remembered only by that
one poem, which sprang from the COZ
umns of q provincial newspaper to
universal recognition in the big wprlS
OF letters.-London Chronicle.

Dry Matter in the cornfleId.

Prof. ]. H. Sheppard. dean of agri-
culture, North Dakota agricultural col
lege, says the amount of dry matter
in a cornfield increases at almost a
regular rate from the time of tassel-
ing until ripe. In round numbers it
Is as follows: When in silk it has
twice as much dry matter as when in
tassel, when In milk three times, when
glazed four times and when ripe five
times as much az when In tassel. The
digestible matter also increases as the
corn natures, so that the increase in
dry matter is even less than the in
crease in digestible matter per acre.
With these facts in mind one cannot
be left in doubt as to the Importance
Of allowing corn to become as near
ripe as possible before cut for fodder.
1t should not be left, however, after 1t
Is ripe, for the leaves to be broken
of by the wind and the digestible mat
ter bleached out by rain and dews.
The common mistake, however, is for
the grower to cut it too early.

GRAIN RATION FOR FATTENING
Sour MIX Aids Digestion and Keeps
System From Getting Feverlsh--
Good Suggestions.

The Pennsylvania station suggests
the following grain rations for fat
tening poultry as having been used
with success:
Where yellow flesh Is wanted a
ration should be made of cornmeal
FIVE parts; ground oats, hulls removed,
two parts; animal meal, one part,
mixed with sour milk. Where a whit
err flesh is wanted the following rations
are recommended: Cornmeal, two
parts; ground buckwheat, two parts;
ground oats. two parts, mixed with
sour milk. Another: Barley meal.
two parts; middlings, two parts; buck.
wheat, two parts; cornmeal, one part,
mired with sour milk. Another? The
refuse from shredded wheat and sour
milk
When birds are confined for fat
tening. sour milk aids digestion and
keeps the system from getting fever
ish. II no milk is available, some
form Of animal or green food must be
supplied to make the best gains.

lot back of my house. 50x125 feet, and
1t was not particularly adapted for eel
cry, but read up on the subject Of
soil and learned that in order to raise
the best crops. growers give a good
coat Of stable manure every second
year. From this concluded stable
manure contained the necessary fer
tilizing elements for the celery plant,
which might be raised on any good
ground. provided it was fortified well
In that way.
As early in the spring as the ground
could be worked sowed part of
fivecent package Of seed in one row
across the garden, and cultivated it
the same as my rows Of beets and
parsnips. When the plants were
about four inches high, l prepared
trench to set them in. The round was
first coated well with good stable ma
nure and then spaded up as deep as
one could spade. After 1t was we'll

Of plants six inches apart and the
plants also six inches asunder in the
row in xig-zEg manner so that in a
trench rs feet long set just 100
plants. All lived and all produced
fine, large stalks.
The plants being set out in the mid
die Of the summer. needed very little
cultivation. They grew 30 rank that
they kept the weeds down in the row,

Of the trenches. These can be hoed

WAYS OF SERVING PIGS FEET
Generally Regarded as piebeiaT
Dish, but II 10 by No Means One
to BE pesplsed.

The following suggestion on pigs
feet from Parker @. Adams are well
to try while cold weather is still with
US.
Pigs feet, a plebeian dish, but one
that is growing in favor in many cir
cles, may be procured fresh or PICK
led at this season Of the year. For
some purposes / prefer to secure the
fresh feet and pickle them myself
II you wish to adopt this method get
good-sized feet and place them In
common salt brine for about ten days;
then wash well and cook slowly In
water in which should be also stewed
at the same time a carrot, two large
onions, some stalks of celery and a
little parsley. The feet will cook In
from three to four hours.
When done drain them In an earth
en- dish. cut them in halves. remove
the larger bones and, pressing them
into shape, put them away to cool.
You will find the feet thus prepared
better than the picked pigs feet Sc
cured In the market. To broil them
and in no way are they better served
season with salt and pepper, brush
over with clarified butter, roll them
IN bread crumbs and broil over q clear
nre, turning often, 30 they will moi
burn. They do not require much
brofiing and should be served with
piquante sauce.

MANY GOOD WINTER SALADS
Even Though Fresh Vegetables Are
Not Available, Numerous substl-
tutes May BE Found.

Salads should always form an Inn
portant part Of the family bill Of fare,
in winter as well as summer. or
course, In summer the fresh, crisp
vegetables which are best for salads
are more easily obtainable. But there
is one good old standby we have with
us always, and that is cabbage. Cab
bage salad in the form Of cold slav
can be eaten by almost any one. and
is easily digested. II carefully made.
The cabbage should. first of all. be
crisp and cold; then 1t should be hne-
ly shredded and dressed with plain.

Cooked vegetables also make accept
able salads, especially when used In
combination with raw ones like celery
or lettuce. Vegetables left over from
the preceding meal. as string beans.
peas, tomatoes, beets, ETC., are deli

close under the leaves without doing
injury to the plants.
Setting in this way has at least
three advantages: First. 1t does not
need to be banked with earth since
the stalks grow tall without 1t; sec
ond the wind cannot whip the stalks
about and thus injure the leaves;
third fewer leaves of equal size grow
on the stalks. In this trench the eel
cry was 30 inches tall and OF very
fine quality.

METHOD or KEEPING HORSES
stable Accommodations Have Marked
influence on Amount Of Food
Required for Animal.

The truth of the statement that the
method Of handling and the stable &C.
commodations have a marked infiu-
ence on the amount of food required
to keep horse In good condition has
been proven by Investigations made
In Columbus by the animal husbandry
students of the college Of agriculture.
Ohio state university.
These investigations have been car.
ried on for several years, over 1000
head of horses being included. It was
found that the concerns with the poor
est accommodations for their horses.
and where the least care was given,
were paying out largest amount for
feed.
The average cost of keeping horses
in Columbus is 401 cents day, and
contrary to popular belief heavy ex-
press horses are fed for nearly two
and one-haIf cents less than light
driving horses. The lowest cost was
$500 per year In the case of an I'm.
derfed animal, and the highest cost
was $s29.02, stallion being fitted for
show.
One noticeable fact was the alb
sence of variety In the ration, the prin-
ciple roughage being timothy hay the
year round, and it was common to
find this given In excess, Corn and
oats constituted the principal grains
fed. In one instance a saving of
$11.15 per animal, or yearly saving
Of 1868. was brought about by the
use of four pounds Of oat straw in
place of similar amount Of hay.

Charity Without Paupertsm.

by the Robert Browning settlement at
Vealworth, which supplies boots to
poor children. The footgear is hand
ed over In return for the payment BY
the parents of a small weekly "reat"

After the final payment the boots
still remain the property Of the settle
ment, without whose permission they
can neither be sold nor pawned.--

Alfalfa Works Deep.

Gasoline and oil help us to plow
deep, but there are depths far beyond
their reach needed by the plant roots.
Just think of the alfalfa. It works
for you all the time, day and night,
through long growing season. and
the while pays q good rent for the
land.
Alfalfa burns no oil. needs no har.
ness. oats or driver; once started II
continues its work till you plow II up.
and gives you field filled with nitro
gen and humus piped far deeper for
any other crop roots than you could
possibly accomplish with great cost.
These things are worth considering
before the alfalfa field is plowed w
to make way for other crops which
cali for lots Of work and expense.

the disease. Or. Sanborn says 1t is a
