reasonab:e quantities of digestible pro-

only they will do very little more than
maintain their weight, for growing
stock also needs digestible protein to
produce bone and muscle.
Many experimented have been made
with nnilch cows, comparing cut corn
stover as an exclusive coarse feed with
an equal quantity of good hay, the
grain rations being the sante in both
cases, and the entire ration being pro-
perly balanced. l'Ire corn stover ra-
tions have produced from three-fourths
a; much to approximately the same
quantity of milk daily as the hey ra-
tions, the yield being influenced some-
what by the length of the feeding period,
and the quality of the stover. While
such a rnethod of fending Ls decidedly

ly it can undoubtedly he improved up -

as the only melee food, they eat it
well for a short time, but soon begin
to lire of It, and then will eat no more
than twrthirds as much stover as hay.
In the (rat place the stover lacks the
agreeable odor and flavor of hay. and
second the use of largo quantities • I
tut stover tends to make the animals'
mouths sora, causing them to eat less
than otherwise. This difficulty Ls lar
less when the stover in shredded. These
two conditions operate to prevent ani-

from a good quantity of hay. The

A CIM N PAW..
(By A. flanker. •
Tho metropolis of tho British Empire,
--that vast realm of (including Egypt
and the. Soudan), four hundred and fifty
million inhubitants-the mightiest city
iron the face of tee earth, although its
huge population exceeds that of more
than forty out of the sixty nations into
which the world is divided, yet is the
hea!thiest of any great city in tiro earth.
At times, however, e-spec:ally in winter
and in the early spring, the atmosphere
cf London is transformed into a thick
murky compound of fog, mingled with
the smoke front countless chimneys and
with the fumes belched forth by che-
mical works and factories; a denso
opaque and turbid pall, which casts the
sable mantle of night over tho whole
city at noon -day, and obscures the sun
an effectually as though it were mid-
night.
And when one of these "London fogs"
-happily, however, infrequent -enfolds
the metropolis in its sooty embrace, c
perfect pandemonium results. For the
atmosphere is so impervious that a bril-
liant light is almost invisible a few
yards away. Every vehicle is preceded
ly one or two wildly shouting men car
rying "links," or torches; and ooilis
kens are repeatedly occurring. provok-
ing outbursts of not too polite ►nale-
dictions and c.bjurgations from the driv-
ers and their attendants. For a pedes-
trian to attempt to cross a street would
be but to court disaster; while even
walking along the pavement is attend-
ed with considerable difficulty and even
danger. The sense of locality too, ap-
pears to be completely lost, and crowds
are aimlessly wandering along without
the slightest idea where they are.
And so it gees on, !tour after (tour,
paralyzing business, creating imleserit-
able discomfort, and alas, aiding and
abetting the lethal ravages of the angei
of death, wnose spear is ruthlessly
struck into the breast of multitudee
both of the aged and infirm, and also
cf the very young. But at length a
strong wind arises, and in a compara-
tively short time tho murky fog to driv-
er away, the atmosphere becomes quite
Clear, and the sun shines brilliantly in
a cloudless sky.
And such, too, is the experience of
many in reference to their own life.
They are wandering in the gloom and
murky obscurity of doubt aid unbelief;
they realize that even if there were a
heaven they are nut fit for the corn -pony
of pure and holy angels, and that they
would feel far more at home in the
ce.ngonial society of the lost; those who
st urncd religion and who ridiculed
p.ety. And then in a moment of re-
morse, at the fell prospect, they hu-
