M0L0y SlLAGE IS HARMFUL
Complaints Made That Farmers Loae
Horses and Enthusiastically
Avoid All Spoiled stuff.

Every winter farmers complain of
losing horses or mules by feeding
spoiled silage. Damaged or moldy
silage is not firstclass feed for any
animal. Even cattle should be fed
carefully, but the greatest care should
be exercised with horses and colts.
See that no moldy stun gets into their
feed boxes and that none is left
there from one feed to another to
spoil.
Good silage does not hurt horses
but remember the mold that soma'
times occurs in spots may kill them
at any time.

GRAIN FEED.

The grain feed is fed night and
morning. n lighter allowance being fed
in the morning than in the evening,
The plan followed at the Pennsylvania
station is to feed approximately twice
as much whole grain as mash grain,
The mash is fed in hoppers, which for
light breeds may be left open all day
but for heavier breeds should be &C.
cessible only part of the day. Some
grit in the form OF oyster shell or
ground limestone and some green feed
such as cabbage, mangel.wurzels,
sprouted oats, potato parings or ground
green bone should be provided In ad-
dition to the ration given above.

way the young fowls can be isolated

In choosing a ration for the laying

economical, appetizing and nutritious
and it should contain a variety OF
feeds.
The ration used in feeding laying

SUNDAYS.

In Miami, Florida, big sundial has
been set up on street corner as an
auxiliary town clock
After the first shock of surprise,
many persons will exclaim, What a
sensible thing to do" The only won
der is that we have allowed so excel
lent an institution to fall into disuse.
For most purposes of course, the
sundial isn't anywhere near so useful
as an ordinary timepiece. We must
have clocks in our houses. and
watches TO carry with us. They tell
time with more definiteness than a
sundial, and they are always available,
day or night, rain or shine. But in
public places in cities where the sun
shines most of the time. there Is still
room for the sundial. 1t is simple and
inexpensive. II requires no attention.
1t never gets out of order. Although il
will not tell time to the minute, 1t is
on the whole more accurate than a
clock And it has picturesqueness
and a sentimental appeal that no me.
chanical chronometer can ever have.
Why shouldn't every town have a
big sundial, combining ornament and
utility, and registering the passing
hours as they have been registered in
all lands for many thousand years?
