LE INSTITUTIONS.
ev, Dr: Cochrane, one of the
resbyterian Ministers in the
nee, , in speaking at a banquet
vee by the United Workmen Lodge,
rantford,• the other evening, said
atr l}iiaFbelieved the -Workmen,, -Forest--
and kindredsocieties were the out-
*th of Christianity, . that_ they
'otild receive all the assistance the
t rch could givethem, and instead
antagonizing . them' he would bid
OM {God speed. • "Societies like these"
e continued, "were a safeguard to
ciety. Men who belonged to them
ad a.place,to •go to insteadof the bar-
room. ` In these 'societies men were
taught the principles, ,of uprightness,
They came it contact ith other men,
end: had their ideas of manhood broad
Cried. ' Men who did not ioin a society
of tlhis•kind and provide for their fam
iliee werecommitting a 'sin. Men had
died and left their families on• the
world: Every man who loved his wife
would prgvide in some such manner
for her. He thought the rich and .
poor in this country and the old
country . were getting further apart,
and capital and labor were becoming
'. more ' antagonistic. The members of
this -society should go on .in the .good
work they were doing. • All should do
their duty. They knew not how soon
they :were to, pass away."
THE Legislative •Oomrnittee of the
Toronto City council has decided to
petition the Legislature to give
munic-ipalities the option of relieving from
taxation either wholly or partly `all
personal property and of remitting
taxes upon buildings or other impro've-
ments, and of concentrating taxation
on land values.
A DECIDED move has been made in
Toronto towards -the reformation of
criminals,, especially of the juvenile
class. Justice Baxter has been em -
,powered by a cemrrrission from the
Ontario. Government to try privately
•
any charges against this olass of offend-
ers. If a further effort can be made
to keep them from the society of more
hardened criminals while awaiting
their trials, these will form two strong
factors in the saving of many a pros-
pectively ruined character. The Onta-
rio Government is to be convmonded'
for this step and the new departure
will be watched with much interest.
:FA.TTEIIING TART WILL NOT
PAY.
A good many farmers complain that
they make no money out of fattening
cattle at the prevailing prices in. our
local • markets, says an ' exchange.
'There is • no doubt that a certain kind
of fattening does not pay. Prof. Rob-
ertson considers that no man can buy
steers or keep them during two years,
and then feed them to a finished con;
dition during the last 4, 5 or 6 months,
se as to make a profit by receiving for
the increased' weight of the animal
during that final feeding period only
-the-market-price per -pound--for; fat -
cattle. A farmer cannot afford to sell
his fattenedcattle at. a rate pe.rpound
equal to the cost' of everypound which .'
the animals have put, on during the
fattening period. That is, if the steer
-gains 200 pounds during the fattening
period, every pound . of • these 200
pounds will cost nearly twice as much
as it could be solrl•for. But the profit
comes mostly in increasing the value
per pound of the weight of the animal.
when first, purchased as a stocker, or
when put up to fatten. A farmer
may purchase store steers at. fpur cents
a pound, and sell them when fat at 5 •

THE Staff of . the Government print-
ing bureau are working energetically to
get out the revised voters' lists, prefer-
ence being given to those constituen-
cies in which Parliamentary vacancies
have occurred. As fast as these lists
are finally printed the bye -elections
will be held, and it is expected that
all the vacant seats will be filled by
the middle of February, at which time
it is understood Parliament will meet
for the despatch of business. Feb.
18th is spoken of as the date, but the
matter has not been finally decided.

cents per pound; so °that he may get
the increased value of 1• cents per
pound, or more, , on the original weight
of the steers, as: well . as the market
price per pound for all of the increase,
if fed properly.. In an experiment in
feeding six steers at, the Central Ex-
perimental Farm at Ottawa last winter,
the following. comparative cost is
given: --Every pound of increase in
the weight of the steers on the ration
o£hay, roots, and meal cost 14.44 cents
per pound; then the increase on' the
steers fed on the ration of corn ensilage
and meal cost 7.52 cents per pounds;
while on corn ensilage, hay, roots and
meal the cost of 14.12 cents per pound.
Itawill be seen that a very great differ-
ence is made evident by the test, so
far •as one• test will demonstrate any-
thing. It is shown , that the cost per
pound of increase when the steers were
fed on hay, roots and • meal was nearly
twice as much as when fed on the
ration of. corn ensilage and meal. This
is a very material point for farmers
all over the country, to know=that
:the actual cost of production on hay,
roots and meal was nearly twice as
high as on corn ' ensilage and meal.
There was a small ..loss on. the steers
fed do the ration of hay, roots and
meal, as between, there cost at 41 cents
per pound added to the value of the
feed consumed, and their value at 5•
cents per pound when finished. ' That
loss amounted to $9.47 on two animals.
According to the same method andf
scale of valuation, there was a gain on
the corn ensilage and meal -fed Myers
of $13.95, and there was a loss on the
corn ensilage, hay, roots and meal -fed
steers of $6.20.
