METHODS FOR FEEDING MEAL
Practical Experience Has Shown Thar
IL ls Most Economical to Mix
Meal With EnsiIaee.

The plan for cutting the fodder or
hay and mixing the bran, millfeed and
cornchop with it and feeding it mois-
tened is preferable, in our opinion, to
any other method, says a writer in
Baltimore American. By feeding meal
dry or made into dough some portion
of it will pass into the fourth stomach
and escape only partially digested.
The plan of mixing the meal with
water and making a thick slop is
preferable to feeding it dry or in a
doughty state.
The meal then passes, as it does
when mixed with the feed, into the
rumen or paunch, whence it is passed,
after undergoing rumination, into the
reticuIum or second stomach, in a
condition fitted for perfect digestion
in the third and fourth stomachs and
the bowels.
If ensilage is fed, mix the meal with
the ensilage. This method of feeding,
we have followed for number OF
years with milk COWS and fattening
cattle, and after careful tests. know
from practical experience that it is
the most economical way to feed meal.
There is no waste of feed and larger
quantity of milk may be given.

FILL BITCHES AND GULLIEs
Stones Are About Best Material for
Filling Depressions-Water Is Fer
mitted TO Drain Through.

INV r. I. THROCKMORTON, Kansas
Experiment Station.l
The little bitches and gullies that
form on rolling farms grow rapidly II
neglected. and deep channels with
steep sides result. By stopping the
flow of the water in these small
streamlets with such material as straw
brush and stones, they can be maze
gradually to fill themselves. SUCH CD
structions cause the soil to be deposit
ed and the ditch will be filled up back
of the barrier. IL measures are not
taken to prevent the small depressions
on a slope from growing, they rapidly
enlarge in three directions, becoming
deeper, wider and longer.
TIE best way to stop up small
bitches and make them fill up is 10
make dam OF stones. Stones are
about the pest material for this pur-
pose, because they collect the sedi-
ment and at the same time let the wa
ter drain through, and water hole
is not formed.
When a ditch is very shallow, only
q few inches deep, board held IN
place with stakes is often sufficient
to stop further erosion. Straw is also
very good for these shallow bitches.
It is very effective in catching the
soil, but is sometimes washed out by
hard rain. Cornstalks are even bet
ter than straw. Brush, can be used,
too, but is hardly dense enough when
used alone. Straw and brush together
are better than either alone. If ce-
ment dams are built, some way must
be provided for the water to get
through. or else pond win be formed.
Cement dams are really not worth the
extra cost.

putated without missing it. The pa
tient was carried in with a penetrating
wound in the occipital region OF the
Uranium. Splinters of bone had
caused an abscess to form in the left
cerebral hemisphere. These were re-
moved by DR. A. Guepin, surgeon in
chief to the hospital, but q fresh
abscess formed, and Doctor Guepin
was obliged on two occasions to ampn.
tate portions OF the brain which pro-
truded from the wound. The patient
thus lost at least q third Of the left
hemisphere, but shows no special
signs of trouble, either OF motivity.
