 Are you sure of your judgment in regard to this man Warrington? How can you tell that he is any different from that man Craig?"
 He is different, that is all. This afternoon he will come to tea. I shall want you to be with us. Remember, not word of this disgraceful affair. '

She had natu rally expected some change, but scarcely such elegance. He was, with out question, one of the handsomest men she had ever met. He was hand somer than Arthur because he was more manly in type. What mystery he was She greeted him cordially without restraint; but for all that, 2 little shiver stirred the tendrils of hail at the nape of her neck.

CHEAPEST FEED FOR WINTER
Hay, Straw and Fodder Cut and Mixed With Bran, Crushed Corn and Cob
 meal Is Relished by Stock.

Cutting or grinding hay, straw and fodder add nothing to their nutritive value But with proper arrange ments it is more convenient to feed, and when mixed with wheat bran and crushed corn and cobmeal, horses, cows and sheep will eat cut fodder and wheat straw as greedily as the best of hay. Where there is an abundance of fodder and straw this is a very economical method of wintering stock the hay may be sold and the money used for buying the bran and oil meal. One bushel of fine-cut fodder--say about eight pounds-and one quart of corn chop and one quart of wheat bran and one pint of oil meal mixed with warm water during the cold weather three times a day, is a good allowance for COW not giving milk that will come fresh in spring. Cows giving milk should be allowed more bran and corn chop. The usual allow ance is three pints of corn chop, two quarts of wheat bran and one pint of oil meal, mixed with half bushel of equal parts of mixed hay fodder and straw, given three times day. Coarse fodder should be split and cut fine;

 Martha looked at her charge in dread and wonder.
 There is the moon," he answered. "I have always wanted that But there it hangs. just as far out of reach as ever"
 Elsa's curiosity today was keenly alive. She wanted to ask a thousand questions but the ease with which the man wore his new clothes, used his voice and eyes and hands. convinced her more than ever that the subtlest questions she might devise would not stir him into any confession. That he had once been a gentleman of her own class, and more, something of an ex- quisite. there remained no doubt in her mind. What had he done? What in the world had he done?
 On his part he regretted the pres ence of Martha; for, so strongly had this girl worked upon his imagination that he had called with the deliberate intention of telling her everything. But he could not open the gates of his heart before a third person, one he in- tuitively knew was antagonistic.
 Conversation went afield; pictures and music and the polished capitals of the world; the latest books and plays. The information in regard to these Elsa supplied him. They discussed also the problems of the day as frank drawing room. Martha's tea was bit ter. She liked Arthur who was all ways charming. who never surprised or astonished anybody. or shocked them with unexpected phases of char acter; and each time she looked at Warrington, Arthur seemed to recede. And when the time came for the guest to take his leave, Martha regretted to find that the major part of her antag- onism was gone.

IMPACTION IN WORK HORSES
Animals Are Turned Out to Old Straw Stack and Allowed to
 Shift for Themselves.

CBy DIR. L F. NEWSON, Colorado Ex-
 pertinent Station.)
 This is the time of the year when impaction of the bowels is most con- mon to work horses. The animals having little to do are turned out to an old straw stack or coarse alfalfa and allowed to shift for themselves. Owing to the cold weather they drink little water and the coarse food not being properly moistened clogs the intestines. This is more liable to be the case if the teeth are not in first class condition, for then the food is not finely ground in the mouth. Look ing after the teeth and giving an oc- casional bran mash will materially reduce inspections.

machine that grinds the fodder. Prac- tical feeders estimate that fodder, straw and second quality hay cut fine and mixed with meal, is worth $S to $10 per ton. as there is no waste.
 Horses should be fed according to their work. One bushel of cut straw and two quarts of corn chop may be regarded as equivalent to good mixed hay.
 If the horses are doing but little work they will do we'll on this mixture, being given all they will eat up clean. If at steady work give two or three quarts of oats or six to eight ears of corn three times a day in addition.
 Sheep should be given little grain once a day. Have roomy shed and hard, dry earth floor. Wheat straw, mixed hay and corn fodder, fed in moderate amounts, will keep them in thrifty condition.

COMPOSITION OF EWES MILK
Different Breeds Show Some Variation in Fat Content-lamb Needs Good
 Laxative at First.

An analysis of eve milk shows 1t to be very high in fat content. The different breeds show some variation in this regard, and there is consid- erable variation in the fatty content of the milk of a single eve at various times All ewes give richer milk im- mediately after the lamb is born than they do later on.
 The percentage of fat sometimes runs as high as II per cent at this' time. Nature made this arrangement no doubt, because the lamb needs . laxative at first to set its digestive ap- paratus in motion and free 1t of feces that have been collecting during itR prenatal growth.
