Tho uho of sllngo In feeding steers H'hllo fattening Is growing in favor steadily, nnd especially where lands nro lilRh priced nnd when feeding sttiirn generally nro high. There has been n pood deal of prejudice ngalnst nilngo nmong extciiHlvo feeders, but um they nrc Induced to try It ao do they become converted to Its use. In feeding experiments conducted nt tho Mli-Bourl Station In J'.)00-7 wlfb Hlecrn weighing about 800 toiuuU each a: tho beginning, those fed sllngd alo lesrt dry matter than those fed whole Mover .or shredded stove-, nnd gulin d In wflght, while tho dry Btover lots lorit. The snme sort of roHu'.ts wc.ro also Keen red from feeding siloed stover ccmpnred flth nlr-drled inntorlnl. Professor PJumb, of the Ohio Agri ci'.IIiumJ College, has this to say on tlio subject: "If silage Is fed under cover, and to cnltlo pot wallowing In mud or oozy immure, then good results will gen erally come from Hh uso. However, liny or other dry roughuo Hliould nlto Im fed. Silage fed twlcj u uny pud hny once should give good results. When cattle nro being finished for shipment, then the amount of sllngo fed Miotild be reduced nnd tho dry rouglingp Increased, this to ptvvent much shrinkage in shipping. However, In what 1b known as rational feeding, but l'ttlo shrinkage Is npt to occur f'om the use of the slinge. In experl mints with steers fed different rntlonn nt tho Vlrglnln Station, thoa? fed si lage showed no appreciable shrinkage In the market over thoso fed exclusive ly dry feed."

Tho average number of deaths from con sumption among the people of the sin gle County of Devon nlone oxceeds 300 per annum. In ono charity organiza tion 80 per cent of the children aro suffering from this dread disease. The llorao Hint I'ulla on ilia lilt.

Better cement It now- How to Itnlae n Ilnrn. A farmer near Goliad had n novel experience. A few years ago he built n small barn, nnd In tho construction used green willow posts nt tho corners and nlong tho sides. For somo time nothing uniisunl was noticed, but after n year ho saw that where ho hud laid tho floor near the ground it was three feet abpvo soli. He discovered that the willow posts, Instead of being dead, wore alive, had taken root and were growing. In their upward movement they had carried tho barn along. Last spring tho barn wns on stilts 0 feet high, nnd ho put In n new floor nnd surrounded tho posts with siding, thereby making a two-story affair. Thero Is now a space of f) Inches be tween the floor and the ground, and tho owner expects to have n three-story barn In tho course of time. Goliad. (Texas) Guard. . Value ot I'otntoca aa Food. According to statistics obtained, it appears that potatoes constitute about 13 per cent of the total food con sumed by the average family. They are essentially starchy and eaten alone would furnish a very ono-sldcd badly ivm COMPOSITION OF THE POTATO. A. fat ; b, crude fibre and other carbobydlat I exclusive of itarcb ; c, protein ; d, ash. balanced diet that would prove un wholesome to most people. As Indi cated In the Illustration the edible por tion, is made up of 78.3 per cent water, 18.4 per cent carbohydrates (principal ly starch), 2.2 per cent protein, 0.1 per cent fat, and 1 per cent ash or mineral matter. These figures represent gen eral averages from which there are wldo variations In Individual .speci mens. When potatoes aro eaten with meat, eggs, or fish, which are essenti ally nitrogenous foods, a well-balanced diet Is obtained. Salt tor Coiva. A supply of salt available whenever tho cow wants It Is necessary to main tain a high milk yield. Salt stimulates the appetite and assists digestion and assimilation, which Increase the flow of the fluids of tho body. Salting feeds for dairy cows once a week Is not suf ficient It is a good plan to keep rock salt under shelter where the cowb can get It at will and then feed loose salt once a week In such quantities ns the cows will eat Loose salt may be used exclusively if It can be sheltered from rain. Do not mix salt with feed, for frequently cows got more salt than they need, which will reduce the flow of milk. Cows having salt kept before them at all times in separate compart ments will not eat too much. Tlia Poultry Hoaae. Now is a good time to disinfect the poultry house, so as to keep the lice from getting n mastery over you. Any kind of liquid lice killer Is good to spray the house with, being sure to spray the roosts and nest boxes as well. If a cheaper disinfectant Is re quired, a whitewash can be made of Mine and water, with some crude car bolic acid In It. This proves a very good deodorJzer and disinfectant, and a large quantity of It can be used without hurting the pockctbook too se verely. AVo nnd on Treca. No artificial medium am be applied to tho surface of a tree wound which will Induce It to heal more quickly. The activity of the healing process de pends upon the character and position and the time of the year when the wound is made, rather thnn upon pro tective coverings, but where n largo surface of heart wood Is exposed It is advisable to protect it from decny by a coat of white lead or other satisfac tory covering. Milk for Cnlvea. The calf tlnds in fresh milk while U Is still warm with the nnlmnl bent of the cow, It Is said, n constituent vnlue not found In the milk nfter It Is nllowcd to get cold. The chemist cannot define It, and It cannot be restored again by wanning tho milk. If every calf could be led Its milk sweet, nnd whijo It still retained Its animal heat, thero would no doubt be fewer cat-hummed steers going to tho block. Tho Sweet Potato licit. Tho northern limit for sweet potato culture is roughly Indicated by a lino drawn from tho border line of Massa chusetts and Connecticut on the cast coast westwtird to tho northeast corner of Colorado, but the area whero it is prolltablo commercially would bo con siderably south of this, except In tho Mississippi valley, whero It extends well Into Iowa, Illinois aud Indiana. Tho I'otnto, Recently, in Hurtz, Germany, n monument was found bearing this in scription: "Here, In tho year 1747, the llrst trials were nmdo with tho cul tivation of tho potato." By the way, when Frederick II. Introduced tho po tato Into his domain his subjects did not llko It; they refused to bo both ered with It, and tho emperor had to forco them to cultlvnto It.

S. S. S. acts more promptly and pleasantly than any other medicine, and those who are run down in healU should commence its use at once. It will thoroughly purify the blood and tone up the system. S.

The increased use of whiskey for rheumatism is causing considerable discussion among the medical frater nity. It is an almost infallible cure when mixed with certain other ingred ients and taken properly. The follow ing formula is effective: "To one half pint of good whiskey add one ounce of Toris Compound and one' ounce of Syrup Sarsaparilla Compound. Take in table spoonful doses before each meal and before retiring." Toris compound is a product of the laboratories of the Globe Pharmaceu tical Co., Chicago, but it as well as the other ingredients, can be had from any good druggist. Up-to-Date.
