 To lay in supply of winter food for the family and neglect to cater tG the family COW is an oversight which retaliates upon the owner straightwas with unerring accuracy. for the milch COW measures to her owner in pro portion as he metes out to her the materials from which she is to main. tain her own strength and vitality and produce a good flow of milk
 The demands of her body for greater warmth during the winter months make 1t necessary that she be in first class condition-fat and sleek.
 An abundance of food which not only aids in maintaining her bodily warmth, but is of a nature to whet the appetite to it's keenest is essential to keep the milk flow at it's best
 Like other domestic animals. cattle enjoy variety. The available food material on a well-conducted farm af- fords this. Glover and timothy hay, oat hay, cornstalks. cowpeas, bran, a quantity of undersized, unmarketable apples. potatoes. squashes. beets and carrots are a delight to the healthy COW
 Where one has not the facilities for supplying ensilage the vegetables and fruits mentioned above are most ex- celient substitute.
 Turnips, cabbage and strong fla vored vegetables are also relished by this family COW and are very whole some but as they give an unpleasant flavor to the milk. cannot be admitted to her diet.
 Decayed or moldy fruit or vege- tables should. needless to state be re- jected. The seeds should be removed from sduashes and pumpkins. as they tend to diminish the flow of milk.
 In order that the food be whole some and nutritious it must be stored under approved conditions
 Pea hay, we'll cured. keeps in mow or loft with plenty of bottom ven tilation. Stalks are usually rieked out of doors. This is satisfactory if they are thoroughly dry when ricked and so tightly packed that those under. meath are thoroughly protected by the sloping outside layers
 The carbon in the food we give to live stock is identically similar to the carbon burnt in the furnace or grate for the supply of heat. In both cases there Is combustion. although it takes a different form
 l venture to believe that if such pre- cautions were systematically adopted the milk supply would not fall off as it does and that there would be fewer and heart-burning disap- and failures.
 In the first place. food may be warmed with advantage The hay should be of the best and the succu- lent food supplied never given under such conditions in large quantities quite cold. but allowed to heat in the

l heap in which the rations are mixed together.
 It should not be forgotten that a large quantity of water or cold man gels or cabbage means the loss of a certain proportion of the food supplied which is essentially used in the heat ing of these materials.
 That such saving would be ef- fected during cold weather there can not be the shadow of a doubt. It is for this reason that some farmers pro vide mixing floor of concrete on which chaff pulped roots, meal grains. cotton cakes and the like are piled, mixed together and allowed to remain for 24 hours to ferment. Fermentations means heating and in this way the food is not only warmed and made certainly more tasty to the cattle, but positively more economical
 Now the question arises. what food may be employed at such times? It appears to me that judicious innova- tions may be made under special cir cumstances.
 There may. for instance, be an ad- dition of linseed cake which is es- pecially useful to stock on account of it's richness in oil, or of the best form of cotton cake for the same reason.
 The best hay should be used in pref erence to that which is second rate for while bulky food is essential, it is well that the food given at a time of stress should be of the richest, afford ing more nourishment and consequent ly supplying greater heat to the body.
 If succulent food is given it had better be supplied in a way suggested through the process of fermentation.

  W HELP
HIS VISION OF FUTURE CITY
French Architect Sees Great Changes to Be Brought About m the
 Years to Come.

At a recent gathering of worla-te- nowned architects Edouard iieiall' architect for the city of Paris pf9 sented a paper which included mum her Inf novel suggestions as to the ie- ouirements in the city plan or the lu ture. He predicted that public seIsleo ' within the next quarter of century will include many details not yet even under consideration Most Of these are to be supplied by tube and pro vision for a perfect network oI stif- tce tubes must be made in city Plah- ming. They would seriously lnterlei0 with present arrangements.
 Vacuum cleaning may be one or these and it will require a pipe rom every house for the pneumatic aus' removal which will be regarded as all essential part of public health Work' AS the uses of cold air increase, oth- CT tubes will supply 1t to lower the temperature as desired and fer the distribution of fresh air from the sea or the mountains. NIT. Henard empha- sized the feasibility of this fresh ar supply as a health measure, because of the fact that meter of fresh ar from nearby street contained 6,UUV disease germs, while the same amount from the mountains or the sea need contain almost none. AS coal oil IS largely used for fuel purposes in Paris and is productive of less smoke and dust than other fuels, he suggests the possibility of an oil pipe service for all residences similar to the gas pipes now in use.
 The old idea that the street should be level with the ground may in fu- ture be considered erroneous. It should be sufficiently above the sur face it is held. to give room for all these service utilities between it and the ground The adjacent houses should have basement floors. The sidewalks and roadways should be built like continuous substantial bridges, which after proper construe- tion, would not need to be meddled with except for repairs They should be supported by walls of masonry par allel to the adjacent houses and on a level with the second story
 Such plan would make the modern city street two storied, the upper part for pedestrians and light weight vehicles, the lower for service and heavy traffic. This arrangement has already been introduced in Chicago for traffic between the railway sta tions and certain private warehouses.
 Re-enforced concrete roofs, Mir. He nard holds. will provide gardens and also landing places for the aereplanes which will come into more general use Garages and hangars will be available below the surface and great elevators will lift these machines from their subterranean quarters as desired.
 The beginning of these innovations is said to be already in sight At least one large American hotel has already provided roof landing for aeroplanes. New York has now a public play ground and garden built upon bridge trestling fifty feet from the ground.

The prickly pear of Texas is an- nounced by the United States depart ment of agriculture to be fine food for dairy cows
 From 50 to 100 pounds of slabs. 36 pounds of sorghum hay and one pound of eottonseed meal is said to be a maintenance ration for a dry COW. but less of the pear and more hay is bet ter This is about the same as spine less cactus. except for the thorns. which have to be burned off
 The recommendation would apply even more to the spineless cactus, which is more highly developed and also has no thorns. or very few.

Many Mislaid Articles

Protectors against rain seem to be the most easily forgotten impedimenta that the traveller carries. During a re. cent week 157 articles were left in trains of the Chicago &s Northwestern railway. Of these, 34 were umbrellas and 10 were raincoats. These articles were probably carried by unusually forehanded travellers, but doubtless the clouds cleared off and the careful citizens became preoccupied in fair weather thoughts.
