MILK AS HORSE' FOOD: '
In the July Outing is an" interesting art if le on 'Millc
Fed Race Horse,'! by A. C, Robins. n, descriptive of Azote,
who was reared'upon '.'dry milk,'' a new preparation of
milk made by removing the water from milk. '
Avr.fp eKtnlilislied lievont 'ouestion that a horse can
be brought up mid worked more, than ordinary liorst
in mi lk ' Fiirllieiiiiore. Azote reached Ins maximum
weight and development, one:' thousand and twelve pounds
in the unprecedented time of eighteen months and ten days.
or an average gain during the live hundred and thirty
three davs of feeding of over one and one-half pounds pc
dav. . .
Qrdinary horses take two and one-half years to reach
their full weight development and their average gam per
dav is less than one pound. ; Another astonishing fact, and
one: of which he is the oulv Jiving example, js that, be had
all his three-year-old teeth when he was two' years and two
months. It would seem that the day when the wise ones
could tell the age of a horse by looking in his mouth was
past. Now the ordinary horse does not reach his full power,
that is the maximum ot what he can do upon the track
until he is four or five years old. All the best prizes arc
offered for two- and three-year-bids and as soon as a horst
begins carrying weight for age his chances. for a "grand
killing" are pretty well over. But suppose! by a new
method of feeding a colt could be made to gain a year and
while in reality only three years old have the growth and
strength of four?,- With this idea of rapid development in
view, the colt Azote was bought.
He was taken from his mother when he was twenty-
six days old, and started upon dry milk. He received mn
half ppiilid of the powder mixed with two iiarts of water
j i ' ' . i L i. . i j !....!... l.i. 1: i.... ....1.1:1...
every iwo nours anil a nan, or eigui nines it uu,y, jiim tuu
a baby. He drank it from 'a pail in about a minute and
that was all there was to his feeding. He was weighed even
morning at ft o'clock and as he grew the iiantity of food
was increased in proportion to his increase in weight.
After a time it was found advisable to give him a cer
tain amount of hay, not for any purpose of nutrition, hut
in order to give bulk to the highly concentrated food upon
which he subsisted. He was given about one-half as much
hay as other horses receive. ' This is all he has ever eaten,
a little hay and tin? milk powder mixed with water; never
any oats or corn, and in this lies the novelty of the experi
incut. Yet when we consider that one pound of dry, sep
arated milk contains as much muscle-making material as
five pounds of, oats or corn and as twelve pounds of hay
it was not so daring after all.
Dry milk is digested to the extent of !)H per cent; oat
and corn to Go per cent, and hav only li" per cent. Tin
advantages of this last fact are obvious, for besides rceeiv
ing more nourishment in proportion to the bulk it requires
only twenty-six hours for dry milk to pass through tin
intestines, whereas ordinary food takes three to four days,
so that there is much less waste material and a horse during
a race carries over the course muc h less dead weight. It
is just as if his handicap had been cut down.
Milk contains 87 per cent of water. Dry milk is math
by the removal of this water. The milk as soon as possible
after it comes from the cow in most cases an hour or two
is passed without preliminary treatment, physical or
chemical, except straining, over polished steel rollers in
a thin sheet. The rollers are heated to a temperature o
two hundred and forty degrees Kahr., and the milk re
mains on them only about two and one-half seconds. It
conies off the rollers a dry powder containing less moisture
than lour, only 5 or f! per cent. 1 1 is then packed in boxes
or barrels and can be shipped far or near as reouircd
Its chemical composition has been unchanged and it will
now keep for an indefinite period, or until the re-addition
of water.
All germs are killed by the temperature of two hundred
and forty degree to which the milk is subjected. The
milk itself does not. suffer any chemical change, as in the
ease of sterilization, on account of the short space of time
it is subjected to this heat, only two and one-half seconds
instead oftmmty or thirty minutes. Bacteria develop onlv
in the presence of moisture. It has been ascertained th.it
there must be 1.1 per cent moisture for the propagation of!
germs, jnow, as dry mik contains only per cent moisture
any germs which may subsequently get into the powder
cannot develop; hence the milk keeps indefinitely or until
water is again added. In dry milk is a food eight times
as nutritious as ordinary milk in nronortion to its up.oU
is absolutely free from bacteria and will

On the vast plains of Colombia and

vannas, which are parched with heat
except during the rnluy season, there
Is one of the greatest of natural curi
osities, a tree called the chapurro,
which la fireproof.
it la the custom of the Colombian
herdsmen to clear the ground by
meaua of fire for the new vegetation,
which springs up so luxuriantly in
these regiuns after the raluy season.
But not even the intense heat of a
prairie Are affects the chapurro tree.
It survives the flumes to nfford it wel
come shade In uu otherwise treeless
country.
It Is a suiull tree, seldom growing
to more than twenty feet in height,
with a girth of nlioiit three feet. It
owes Its curious immunity from lire
to the nature of lis hard, thick bark.
The bark lies on the trunk In loose
layers, which do not readily conduct
heat to the more delicate purts of the
structure.
The natives believe that this tree
grows only where gold is nbundant iu
the soli below, and It certaluly is com,
