MISTAKE IN FEEDING GRAIN
Common Practice OF Many Dairymen
to Feed Every Cow in Herd the
Same Quantity.

Perhaps the most common mistake
in feeding grain to dairy cows is the
practice of feeding every COW in the
herd the same quantity regardless of
the amount of milk she is producing,
instead of regulating the grain accord
ing to the daily amount Of milk pro
duced.
Considerable waste of feed may re-
suit from failure TO balance rations.
This is especially true if the ration
happens to be in protein; for, while
an excess of protein may be substituted
for energy, energy producing foods can
in no case take the place of protein in
a ration The milk flow, therefore,
may be limited to the protein content
Of the ration, even the energy prOduc-
ing foods may be present in excess.
An economical ration is balanced
ration.

cows APPRECIATE KINDNESS
Animals Are Naturally Of Nervous and
ExeitabIe Disposition and
Resent RouQhness.

In the hurry of getting chores done,
dairyman sometimes forgets that
dairy cows are naturally Of a nervous
and excitable disposition, and that I'M
der conditions of excitement or fear
the milk flow is lessened materially.
Driving cows on the run, chasing them
by dogs and with loud shouting are
not allowed ON a well-managed dairy
farm. In the stable all operations
should be carried on quietly. When a
cow kicks there usually is reason for
it; the teats mny be hurt by the mixer
or the COW may be frightened. At such
a time little care in removing the
cause and pacifyfng the cow often will
prevent further trouble. Many good
COWS become confirmed kickers and
consequently less profitable as a re-
suit of lack of careful observation
and kindness ON the part of the attend
ants.

ture," said Mr.. Sidney. "Our conven-
lions teach us to regard family tie
as a sacrament. In many cases it is
only an odious obligation leading to
| tragedy"
"Dick knew all of Henry's weakness
es," Jed continued. Sometimes he
would torture him physically, by twist
ing his wrist or rolling him over on
the ground when young girls were
around. Sometimes he would torture
him without laying hands on him.
"Dick was thick-headed brute. but
he had a genius for cruelty. When
their parents died and the boys ap-
preached their majority, Henry was al
most an imbecile for fear Of Dick.
"Dick wanted then to get his inheri-
lance and go out into the world, but
the estate was left in trust until both
boys were Of age. Dick came of age
and was obliged to wait two years for
Henry" .. ..-
/ was astonished by the succinct and
philosophical brevity OF this ignorant
mans narrative. Mr.. Sidney was at
ease in his chair with his eyes closed
and placid expression of pleasure on
his face. Jed was active in gesticula-
ton as he talked. That was the eff
feet Of the wine. The wind continued
to pull at the chimney and scold in the
corners.
JED has read a great deal to me-"
said Mr.. Sidney without opening his
eyes. II think he has become theatric."
WELL" said Jed, "to shorten a story,
when Dick, being twenty-one, found
that he had to wait two more years for
Henry, he became more brutal than
ever. In some way or other, the night
of the murder the two brothers hap
pened to meet in tavern in a village
not far from Hartley house. Henry
did not want to go home with his
brother, but they both got drunk and
they started to walk home together.
mo one has been able to do much
more than guess at what took place,
but it was known that Richard was a
brute and that Henry was scared of
him but was not a coward. They must
have had a violent quarrel.
There was cottage near the pool
The only person in it at the time was
little girl, whose parents were not at
home. She was awakened by cries
and swearing. She said that she heard
one man say: They'll find you dead in
the morning. Then she heard sounds
of struggle and was scared and hid
her head under the bedclothes.
"When her parents came home she
told them what she had heard, and
they went out with lantern to the
place from which the noise came They
found parts of Henry's clothing. The
next day Richard was found, ten miles
away, still drunk. He confessed that
he had killed his brother in q drunken
rage.
"Afterward he said that he hadn't,
but he admitted that there had been a
quarrel. 1t was a most celebrated

CHAPTER V-Continued.

"And tell sad stories of the deaths
of kings" said Jed, drawing his chair
nearer to the fire and spreading out
his hands before it. He was drinking
more nationally now, slipping his wine
instead of gulping it. He had arrived
at his desired state and wished to
maintain it.

After Inchcape was returned the winner in the sixth race at Aqued11ct yesterday, Sam c. TIildreth offered J. H. Rosseter s50,000 for the colt. Inch cape is by F'riar Rock---Rose of Gold. tHe is a chestnut like his sire. but is generally regarded as a better appear ing colt. Hildreth was desirous of getting Inchcape as he had trained F,riar Rock for all his races. Inchcape was proclaimed by many a second Man O War. Whether he deserves such a high rating remains to Hbe seen. The season has already produced half a dozen really clever juveniles and Inchcape will have to dispose of some very formidable rivals before he can stand out as a second Man O War.
