Ohl investigations of the Sella of the
Connoetlea$ valley, tegether with the
study of the ellreatic eendttions pre-
vailing there .and the Cenditione of
growth le Flerlda, Cuba and Sumatra,
convinced me that ..'liner commercial
grade of ewer ahoulrl be grown .upon
seine of the soils in that state. The
completion of the 0o11 map of a portion
of the Connecticut valley from South
Glastonbury, Conn., to South Eadley,
Mass„ gave a basis . for an intelligent
line of investigation looking to the Imo
provementof the Connecticut leaf. In
December, 1891e Mr. Floyd went to
New Haven and In co-operation with
the Connecticut experiment station fer-
mented a lot of tobacco according to
the most, improved Florida methods
which have been developed from the
methods used In Cuba and Sumatra
The products of this experiment were
admitted by tbe growers and dealers to
be superior in the unlformlty of color
to the results obtained by the usual
method of ease fermentation, It was
found furthermore that much of the
top Leaves and trash (ordinarily sold
for from 1 to 11/ cents per pound) If
properly fermented made fair fillera.
which were valued by several firms
who bad no knowledge of the origin of
the tobacco at from 18 to 40 cents per
pound.
Not being satisfied that the change
In the method of fermentation improv-
ed the quality of the leaf as much as
the sell and climatic conditions seem-
ed to warrant, a further line of ex-
periments was planned in co-opera-
tion with the Connecticut experiment
Station on closer planting and partial
"shading of the growing plants. Florida
grown Sumatra seed was also intro-
duced, and the experiment Is being
watched with profound interest by the
'eonneeticut growers and dealers. The
Hants have made a wonderful growth,
the leaves appear perfect In form anal
exture, and the results of the fer-
mentation are awalted with tbe most
lively interest. •
From tem work so far done in the
Connecticut valley I am satisfied that
the Sumatra type of leaf can be pro-
duced there under shade, having all
the desirable qualities of a small leaf,
with small veins and great elasticity,
as well as a desirable uniform color
and excellent grain and style. Sam-
ples of the unfermented leaf grown this
year (1900), have been shown to the
different New York packers, who have
pronounced :it as perfect In texture
and style as anything which has ever
been grown.
It Is proposed to experiment with the
Pennsylvania and Ohio leaf to see
how the aroma of these may be. Im-
proved by the Cuban method of fer-
meutatlon. From my study of the soil
and climatic conditions of these two
localities and the products which bave
already been produced I am convinced
that a leaf more closely approximating
the more desirable leaf from Cuba can
be produced. If these result% cannot
be obtained by the fermentation of the
present crop, it is my purpose next
year to introduce other methods of
planting and cultivation and probably
a change of seed, with the expectation
that we will be as successful In im-
proving the quality of the filler leaf
in these two states as we have been In
approximating the qualities of the
Sumatra leaf In Connecticut, concludes
Milton Whitney of the department of
agriculture in a recent report.
Timothy Hny.
One farm product that Is bringing a
good price this year is timothy hay.
Many farmers would be able to sell at
least two-thirds of all they raised If
they had saved their corn fodder.
Horses and cattle will .winter as well
on good corn fodder as on bay, and
moat farmers know It, yet .many did
not cut a shock of corn. This simply
shows lack of business sagacity. I
have noticed that when crops are good
and bring good prices many farmers
become Improvident and allow a great
deal of valuable material to go to waste
if it happens to be a little difficult to
handle. They fall to Improve their
financial `condition when they have the
opportunity.
Those who never fall to utilize these
materials accumulate a surplus, and a
period of low prices or an unpropitious
season occasions them little or no wor-
ry or trouble. It Is uett alone the fac-
ulty of raising good crops that makes
successful farmers, but the ability and
energy t� utilize all to the best advan-
tage. I think the day will soon come
when farmers will save their corn fod-
der
odder as carefully as they now do their
hay. It is more than likely that ere
long we will have factories that will
call for the thick, beavy.portlon of the
stalk from the ear to the root. Then
the upper part—that which is richest
In food elements -can easily be eut and
stored.

FPp7DING THg COLT.
The first winter makes the colt,
therefore he ehquid bave the very beet
Ore. If he leas been taught to oat
grain and hay beano be is weaned he
$11 take to his winter's teed touch
more kindly. Many a colt driest not
thrive the first winter because he has
been poorly weaned. Separated from
his mother before learning to oat
grain and hay and put on dry innutri-
tiqusi food, his coat soon stand on
end, ho lases flesh and becomes a moat
forlorn, dejected looking object.
Two things are to be guarded against
in feeding the Dolt, First, the feed
trust not be too bulky, for if it is, the
colt will not be able to get Sufficient
nourishment out of it and will gra`
up with a "weedy" look. :A "big
belly" on a colt is not objectionable'
provided It is within bounds: Many
stockmen foolishly look for the trim
tidy form of the mature animal in the
young colt. The 'digestive tract need
to be developed to a moderate eaten
by distention with -coarse feed so a
to servo eta full purpese when the an'
mal is grown. Withholding coarse
feed to keep down the size of the belly
and feeding concentrated grain is the
second thing to be avoided in feeding
dolts. If too much rich food is given
the digestion Is apt to be impaired, with
the result that the animal becomes a
"hard keeper." Liberal feeding must
he counterbalanced by abundant out-
door exercise. Liberal fending and
close confinement ruins many a colt
as well as underfeeding.
Oats lead as tbe best grain for feed-
ing, colts, as they possess a liberal
amount of bond'' and muscle formic
constituents. But mixtures of shortg
and bran. with barley, peas and corn
oan be fed successfully and especially
so when these products, are cheap and
the oats dear. The daily allowance
of oats for a colt Is as follows:—
17p to one year of age, from 2 to
8 lbs.
From one to two years of age, 4 to
6 lbs.
From two to three years oh age, 7
to 8 lbs.
This' gives an idea how. much to
feed, and with it there should be ample
roughage, as hay or straw! but rough-
age should always be fed in just' a lit-
tle less quanLities than the colts would
eat had they free aecess to it. Steam-
ed crushed oats and barley or bran
make good variants occasionally. So
also do Hoots, cooked and crushed
grain, or bran, stirred in. A small
quantity of this kind of feed given
daily preferably at night, or even two
or three times a week, will have its ef-
fect in producing a better Dolt with a
more thrifty general appearance.

lilAT1ONei FOR GROWING PIGS, •
The best food that pan be fed to
growtng pigs is plenty of elan -milk, to -
gather with a grain ration composed
of ,ops -third shorts, ground peas or
oats and the balance were meal. Give
room for plenty of exercise and a
clover pasture to feed en. The skim -
milk and clover are not always to be
had, but there is no reason why the
oorn ration cannot be supplemented
with some one of the three grains
mentioned. No one can afford to raise
hogs if he confines them to a pen. The
corn -fed hog Is not so vigorous as the
one fed on a variety of Leeds and is
more liable to disease.
s POULTRY.
t During cold weather add a few chop-
s pod red peppers to the vegetable food.
i- Beata are good for fowls during the
winter. Split the larger roots and let
the hens clean them out. Cook the
smaller ones.
Oat meal Ls an excellent food for
young fowls that have not wholly
feathered before winter, Bought by
the barrel it is not expensive.
Coal ashes for the dust box should
be run through a medium sieve. They
are good for a disinfectant on drop-
ping hoards. Wood ashes should never
be used in a poultry house.

FATTENING FOOD FOR CHEEP.
This term fattening should be drop-
ped. We don't fatten now, we feed
the sheep for market. And in good
feeding the sheep will take on as
much at as may be needed to make the
flesh succulent. Even clow mutton
eaters complain of the excess of fat,
whioh la a waste of good food, and no
nue wants,it. Feeding on the ordin-
ary rations of alfalfa or clover hay,
with a pint of corn -a day, is suffi-
cient for a lamb ; for a two year-old
on older aheep this ration may be in-
creased to twiee the allowance of
corn, ivith as much alfalfa or plover
Iiay as will be eaten' without waste.
Over feeding to fatten an animal
will put in the fat on the intestines
or about the kidneys, where it is a
waste. The tat shoald be intimately;
mixed with the lean meat, and to do
this fattening must be a part of the,
growth. This, necessaruy, cannot bo,
made In a few days, and thus the prat -1

expect to gain similar proportionate
results with a few weeks excessive

, Among the best known and most
respected residents of the township
of Gaineboro, Lincoln county, Ont.,
are Mr, and Mrs. Peter Beamer. For
a long time Mrs. Reamer Was the vic-
tim, of a complication of diseases,
which made her life one of almost
constant.m'issery, and from which she
nearly despaired of obtaining relief.
To a reporter who recently interview-
ed her, Mrs. Reamer gave the follow-
ing) particulars of her Illness.: and ul-
timate cure :—"For aome nine years;
I )was troubled with a pain in the I
back, and neuralgia, which caused me
unspeakable misery. The ,pain in !
my back was ao bad that whether
sitting or lying down, I suffered more
for leas torture. My appetite left me,
1aand !suffered from headaches amine-
! panted by attacks of dizziness that
left me at times too weak to walk.
Yfy nervous system was badly shat-
tered, so that the slightest noise
would startle me, and my sleep at
night was broken by sheer exhaus-
tion. I was under the Dare of throe
different doctors at various times,
but did not succeed in getting more
than the merest temporary relief, I
also used several advertised medi-
cines, but with no better results, I
was finally urged to try Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills, and get half a dozen box-
es. In• the course of a few weeks I
noted oonsiderable improvement; and
!as a consequence, I gladly continued
the use of the pills for several
months, with the remelt that every
sympbom ad the malady left me,. and
I was able to do my housework
without the, least trouble. As several
years have passed sine° Ihave used
the pills, I feel safe in saying that
the cure is permanent, and the result
also verifies the claim that Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills cure when other
medicine bails.' The reporter can
only add that Mrs. Reamer's present
condition indicates a state of perfect
health, and speaks louder than mere
words can do, the benefit these pills
have been to her.

NOURISHING BREAD.
'elm whole loaf id the subject 01 an
important governmental, scientific/ ip-
vestigation, rvhiel% bas reocntjy been
conolwded, To teach the poor man
how to obtain the best bread for the
least money; to teach the dyspeptl'-o
the relative di'gestibIlity 9f the vari-
cella staffs of life; to teach the house-
wife ramble pante in scientific
bread snaking; to teach the general
nubile how eta detect the evils of the
bakeries'—these are the ?grime pur-
poses sof this work.
The atomaehs of people selected
from different walls°' of life het ve been
fed various qualities of bread and Sub-
jected to derelict:ma study. These
subjects were required to eat in a
dining -room, so arranged that their
meals should be partaken of under
conditions as nearly normal as pos-
sible, The food of each man was
kept separate.
The evening before moll experi-
ment
xpertment began the subject was given a
supper of milk only. During the
ewe, following days the food was nime
luted chiefly to the bread to be investi-
gated, and, generally, milk, butter
and coffee with sugar. Eaoh man
was given as much of this limited diet
as he wanted, Whenever a new
loaf of bread was needed it was
weighed and quartered, one quarter
being analyzed by a ohemist. In
fact, all food furnished was weighed
and analyzed.
Afterward all not eaten was sera -
Healy ,tested, as was that eaten but
not retained' by the digestive sys-
tem. By simply subtracting the
weights and ingredients of food
furnished, the amount actually di-'
gestod was determined. White, gra-
ham and entero wheat bread were in
this way compared.
White breaa yielded the highest
percentage of digestible nutrition.
Entire wheat bread, trade dram flour
not containing the three outer lay-
ers of bran, ranked next. Graham
bread, from the whole wheat grain,
gave the lowest percentage of di-
gestible nutrition. This result will
be a great surprise to dyspeptics,
among whom the eating of "whole
wheat" or "entire 'wheat" breads
has become a fad. Wheat flours con-
taining part of the wheat bran were
discovered to furnish the body more
mineral matter than fine white
flour.
Whole wheat bread is less diges-
tible than that trade of the white of
the grain alone, most probably be-
cause the bran is filled with sharp,
rough particles, which irritate the
membranes of the intestines, and
thus hasten food through them. The
part in the bottom bran layer tvhieb
oontalne its nitrogen does not seem
to be thoroughly digested. The fat
in the germ of the grata when ground
into whole wheat flour fa apt to
grow rancid.
Of the graham and so-oal.lcd entire
wheat floors it is discovered that
only the former contains' the whole
evillest ground up This, invented by
Dr. Silveater Graham, an American
physician, is made by simply wash-
ing and cleaning the grain and then
grinding it all between two stones.
"En'tic'e wheat" floor is found to be
made by running grain through a
machine which removes the three
outer layers of bran. In thele way
the Supposedly useful under layer is
retained. The beet white flour is
now anode by renrovtng the bran from
w -heat amd them running it through
five or moire pairs of rollers, set near-
er and nearer together.
Valuable rules by whioh the house-
keeper can judge good bread flour
offhand are given on the basis of
these Investigations. Its color
should be white, with a faint yel-
lc'was'h tinge. Altter being pressed in
the hand it should fall loosely apart.
If it stays i:n lumps it has too much
moisture in it. When rubbed be-
tween the engine it should not feel
too smooth and powdery, but its en-
divld'ual partioles' ahould be vaguely
distinguishable. When put between
the teeth it should crunch a little.
Its taste Should bo sweet and nutty,
without a suspicion of sourness'.
Wheat 'its the best bread,maker of
all grains. This conclusion is arriv-
ed at attar experimenting with all
of the cereals out of whioh rho world's
daily bread is made. Rye gives a
less ele'stie and clinging loaf, beavi-
or and not ab well raised. Rye bread
is' domed to be (second in importance to
wheat bread, but less digestible.
Barley and tate( produce less gluten
still, and contain more indigestible
matter. Corn oontadns more eat., Ilett
less 'tiesuc building materials than
wheat. Its ,flouts' eonta:ine no gluLen,
and this' is whys the housewife cannot
ruse et alone in making it good loaf,
raised with yeast.
