The Brussels Post, 1893-11-24, Page 7ii i NOVEMBER 2 4, 1893 AGRICULTURAL. ,Feeding Live Stool[. A paper on moro economical feeling of live stools, by Prof, James W. Robertson, Dairy Commissioner of Ontario, gives aroma important matter in relation to ensilage and other matters. From it wo extract, as follows : There aro some matters in the homo ?erotica of the farmer which need moro serious attention than bhe rostriobions which theso two governtnents have seen fit to impaso upon our cattle. Let me ask bhe attention of the femora of Ontario to the bulletin which 1 had the honor to issue on the feeding of steers laob November. I shall he glad to mail a Dopy to every ap• plieanb who sends hie name and address to the Central Experimental ram, Ottawa. Farmers of Ontario should study eemmonieel methods of feeding in order that they may produoe cattle at the least possible cost, because wasteful footling will se fn• crease the Dost of production that no market within reach, under the most favorable circumstances, can leave a profit to the feeder. In conjunction with well -cured corn ensilage, five pounds per heed per day of meal seems the maxi- mum limit for the eoonomioal fattening of steers ; and very little above that seems the maximum limit of meal per day for the eoonomioal feeding of mileb cows. We carried on a very comprehensive test dar- ing the last two years at the Central Ex- perimental Farm to discover if there was any oonstanb relation between the quality of the food which was given (in its content of meal or grain), and the quality of milk which was yielded, in its richness or per- centage of solids. We found that the ad• dition of meal to the ratien of cows after ib reaohed from five to seven pounds per head per day was not economical in point of either the quality or the quantity of the milk which they gave in return. We made something like 20,000 separate tests of the milk in order to have such a measure of data as would enable us to draw conalu- sione which would certainly not bo errone- ous or misleading. From five to seven pounds of meal per day seems a small allowance for a milking cow or a fattening steer but if that amount can be saved to the farmers it would mean many millions of money per year to the •cattlemen of Canada. For some years I have been seeking to discover sone substitute for the expensive and rich meals which have been fed with corn ensilage In order to make it acomplete ration for fattening steers or feeding milch •cows. At last I venture to think that I have been successful in disoovering a sub• stituto whioh is within easy reach of every farmer in Ontario, and almost every farmer in the Dominion who keeps (tattle. I have here samples of ensilage made from Indian •cornand horso•beans which have beengrown togebherinthe same rows. The sun -flowers and horse -beans supply the albuminoids and fat in which the corn is deficient. The method of growing is as follows: One- half [bushel ne-half[bushel of horse -beans are mixed with one-third bushel of Indian corn ; these are sown or planted in rows three or three and a half feet apart on one acre. When bho crop is grown the produot from two acres of that mixture is put with the heads from one•halfan acre of sunflowers (the Mammoth Russian sort). The albuminoids from the beans and sunflowers, thus provided in the ensilage, will be equal to four and a half pounds of mixed cereals added to every feed of fifty pounds of corn ensilage. Besides, the albnminoids in the green end succulent state of those plants are likely to be more digestible than in the ripened grains. The value of this to the farmers and cattle•keepers in Ontario is not quite evi- dent at first sight. The advantages are as great as though a farmer could get nearly 40 bushels of mixed cereals per acre, in addition to his Indian corn Drop, with- oub the expenditure of any more labor or money than in the growing of the corn .alone. The extra octet of growing one-half an acro of sunflowers, and providing bho seed for the horse -beans growu on the two acres in the rows withbhe corn, is equal to 815. Against that exbra outlay the farmer gets from the two and one-half acres enough additional feed to be equal to 115 i)ushels of mixed wheat, barley and oats. This ie equal to a clear gain in cash (valuinv the mixed grain at one cent per pound), of almost 814 per acre more than from the growing of ripened grains to feed with it in order to make it a complete and well- bal. ant rd ration. If a patron of a cheese factory or cream. ery in Ontario would grow three acme of this "Robertson Combination" for feeding cattle, it would be equal to a—saving or gain to him (as good as clash in the first year), of $4L Multiply that by the 50,- 000 patrons of cheese factories and cream- eries in Ontario, and you have a sum of 82,050,000. That is not the only gain which would come to the bard -working femora in On. tario from this new discovery. There would be P. clear gain to the fertility of the soil equal to about 30 pounds of ni- trogen per acre. When it is remembered that wheat takes from the soil annually about 30 pounds of nitrogen per acre, it will bo apparent that the more;, the farm. ere grow beans with their Dorn and feed this combination, the better will they be able to grow all other grains without per - mama exhaustion of the soil. I do not desire to press this aspect of the question very tar ab present, but thio may be said by way of increasing your interest in this new orop for feeding. In all those cons- meroial fertilizers of which nitrogen is a consbituentpart, the nibrogen is valued at at least 15 cents per pound. The oloar gain in the nitrogen from the growth of the been orop may be quite equal to $4,50 per acre. If this sum be multiplied by three acme for every patron of all the oheeso faotories and creameries in Ontario, and bleat bo added to the direct mall gain from the growth end feeding of this orop, Abe sum will come to $2,725,000 per annum, or more than 850 per patron annually. Washing Butter. Washing butter is one of the unsettled things of the day, and over in England there ie a groat discussion going on about it, some holding that water door carry out gavot, and that only working should bo resorted to in preparing the butter for the packages. In milia country, the matter seeing pretty well settled bhat the churn stopped at the right time, and the butter washed free from the butbermilk with weak brine, is improv od,, and that the resultingflaVor is bhe truer flavor of bubter fats. T'houeands of pee. plc) who eat worked over butter, have oomo to like flavor of the 15 per cone of but. k left in the bettor, and when the terms � y are presentee with well washed butter, in Which the bubtormilk has been exchanged for its equivalent of brim) that bring(' out the true flee er of the fat, they notioe the change, and not being familiar with the true butter flavor, diadem at once againab it. Heroin may be a truth, tint evatere of eortalom wella and springs, may contain some min) oral matter that may prednee an unfavor- able offset upon the butter, oven giving its soapy texture, and when such is the ease, worked butter world loo preferable, Here .s another point ; eV hors butter ie not washed, it is often gathered too mallin Goo 011111.11before being put upon the work- er, orker, and the final hand work is mostly to incorporate the remaining buobercnlik more completely into bho button, instead of work. ing it oat; and when ono says that the bntbcrnhilk is all worked out of that batch, notice that ib is yet plastic, and easily moulded, which allows that fully 12 to 15 per Dont, of bnbteemilk yet exude in in. visible form to the eye, in each pomud of butter, for if dry it would closely approeolh a cape of tallow in solidity. Ageloultural Notes. There cannot be a thoroughly good farm unless there is a good water supply. If your farm is waiting in this, spare no effort to oorreobit, When green orops are plowed under for the purpose of enriching Aloe soil, an appli. cation of lime will often be of the greatest benefit. It helps to correot the acidity of the soil that often results from the too rapid fermentation of the green stuff. The fence law which works the greatest good to the groatost number is that which compels a man to fence his own cattle In, ratter than to fence other people's cut. Where this is once tried, it is not easy to persuade people to go bank to the old way. A heavy clay soil will hold water like a basin, and no crop can do its beet if the plants have wet feet. A subsoil plow that will break deeply without lifting the under soil, will make the cropping of such land much more profitable than it has been be fore. If the sowing of a crop is not rightly done, all remaining labor will be in vain, so far as the effort to produce a full yield is con- cerned. Wo have seen men who leave this most important operation wholly to hired help. If there is any one thing that the farmer should do himself, it is to sow the send. In order to be wholly sacoessfui a farmer should make his plans a long time in ad- vance of the day when they must be put in- to operation. The best way is to mature a plan of operation that will require some years for fully carrying out. This brings better results than the changeable way that some have, of trying one way thin year and another the next. The boas from smut in corn is not usually regarded as a mabter that seriously affects the profit from the crop. Yet it is one of those little leaks which we should snake every possible effort to stop. The only certain way to be rid of ib is to cut and burn every affected plant as soon as discov. Bred. Do not cure or feed any smutty stalks, and avoid following corn with cern where the disease has been at all bad. A good crop of hay may be made more profitable than an equally good orop of grein, nine times out of ten, if it is judiciously fed to stook upon the farm. The expense and labor attending the management of a bay farm are so much less than those of a grain farm, that it is a constant wonder to us that more men who are burdened with more land than they can properly cultivate, do not 1 change their methods. Itis not always beat to do things the easiest way. What you save in the begin- niug by such a method is usually lost at the final outcome. Tide will apply in making the arrangements for feeding and housing the stook for the winter. Hogs have generally short, thin hair, that dons not afford mucin protection against the cold. For this reason they should have some bedding in which to neat, but it should be clean and dry so that it will not do more harm than good. A manure pile is a bad place for them to huddle and sleep. We think rather too =oh is said about the ability of sheep to thrive without much care. This leads some men to neglect them to a point that annuls all possible profit. The fact is that sheep need the best of care to give the best results. Bosh wool and mutton will soon show the effects of neglect. It isjust es necessary to give proper development of bone in the hog as in the horse. When he is being made ready for market he has an amount of flesh to carry that cannot be well distributed union a weak frame. Give such food and exercise as will build bone before the fattening period begins. To have the cattle well housed for winter ib is not requisite that you have costly structures. It is a faot that some men can house a given amount of stock bobter in a barn oosting five hundred dollars than an. other could in a barn oosting twice that. In all mabters connected with stock keeping there is a good deal in the man. An animal that is stunted in its early youth will fail to make as good an ultimate development as it would have done other. wise, no matter how much itis pampered in later life. And whatever is accomplish- ed with it is done at far greater coat than would have been the ease if it had been given a fair start. Words of Windom. Knowledge is the knowing tlhab wo can- not know.

Tho prize was a big one, and occasionally iso the interval be, bweon the purchase of the tiokeb and the drawing my friend would chuckle at the fun he wopld have if he got anything out of it. He did nob, but what was worse than if ho had, his number was only ono figure off a big prize. He tried Nein, of course, and, strange as it may seem, he appeared to figure on success in hie second attempt boo tree of lois proximity to luck in the first. Instance, He now began to definitely but still laughingly say what he would purchase, where he would do, and how he would spend the money if he got it, Bub at did not comer With surprising perseverance Ile put up another 55 for a token, arguing that as the day of the drawing was his birthday he was bound to get something this time. He showed me the diamonds that were intended for his oweetheart in the old country, but these gems,alasl were still in a store window. there were dresses and clothing; jewelry and knick-knacks of all kinds that he had his eye on, all to be hie—when he got mho prize. Ho obill smiled epologebioelly as he pointed out these things to me, as if excusing himself for being so foolish.. But gradually he got these ideas in his head and lived only in a land of dreams, dreams that would be real, how- ever, when he gotlthat money. "But his' colossal luck,' as he fondly termed it, was always against hien, and the dream remained impalpable. Is never gave up sending money regulanly,and began to got taciturn and sour when the subjeut wasllightly referred to by one. His belief in his luck grew fanatical almost,and his busi- ness began to tall off as the went further and further to the land of dreams. He avoided the subject when ib was broached to hie., bub sometimes referred it to himself. The diamonds were his now, only he was watt. ing until he got the money. It was certain to come next time,and then that oloak and that vase were his. What a time he would have when he went home 1 He knew just the house he would buy if his sweetheart liked it, too. Ib was strange those people who ran the business did not see that his number ought to win, Hiscolossal luck ' would pull him through, though, in spire of all. Oh, yes, Ile would let bhem see how to do it when he got the money. He would make a splurge. " Over two years were required to got the victim to this stage, and then his rapid descent began. Once over the brow of the hill the rest was easy. Ho was still keen enough at business when he would attend to it, but the cobwebs of a delusive fortune clogged up his brain. On all other subjects lie was sane enough. Shortly after this lie gave me a fright I shall never forget. He and a party of us were sitting in the vesti- bule of a hotel chatting after dinner. There was nothing but politics in the conversation, when suddenly the crank laughed in the most inopportune and to roe (who knew hum) blood•aurdling fashion. He was thinking of that furtuno and the company he was with was furthest from his thoughts. Soon afterward he began to make com- plaints to friends in confidence. He was badly treated. People were scheming to keep him out of money. But he knew them and he would get even some day. Several of his friends believed hits, sympa- thized with him and fed the fire that was burning away his brain, Latterly he come. plained to the police. Men were watching he said. They were scheming to get him out of bho way for a fortune that was his by right. Tho police saw what was the matter at once and got him gonetened and on to other topics. He was tolerably well connected, or lie might have been confined at this stage. Now his business is ruined, qq and he ekes out a livelihood until such time ae he can get that lottery prize. 00- aasioually he still sends money for a ticket, when he has enough to spare. But the is too sour to do much of that even. Ho has paid enough, he thinks, and the prize is his. "If by any chance the fancy got into his inind he might shoot the jeweller in whose store he first fanoied those diamonds. The lottery officials and the police are bitter enemies of his, who have defrauded him, Ile thinks. It would go hard with them, too, if his orankinees took bhat trend, and it might any day.

A Remarkable Eaoape• A Belgian officer, Captain Felix,who was recently sentenced by a court-martial to degradation for having stolen money from a bathing -machine at Ostend last summer, may certainly consider the oiroumsbances under which he has been acquitted of the offence by the milliary Courb of Appeal singularly lucky. One of the points in the agamsbevidenoo him was,that in the purse whioh hewas aocnsodof stealing from a lady's bathing cabin, there was amongst otter coins a gold Napoleon wibh a black spot on the baok, An exactly similar coin, it ap- poare, was found in thsBelgian officer's pos- session, and muoh stress was laid upon the fact. After his condemnation he appealed, and for the defence the governor and tree - surer of the National Bank were called. They stated that they had made an experi- ment. Two bags of gold had, by their instructions, been taken ha hazard from their vaults, and it had been found that of 100 gold coins 90 were Napoleons, and that threo'quarters of bhe latter had a blank spot on the baok, -Thie statement, ib can be readily understood, created a sensation, and the officer's anteoodonte being excellent he was acquitted. fie admitted that he was in the habit eomobimos of entering bathiu •maehinee occupied by ladies "for fun." Probably seeing what results Ole sort of fun mighb have entailed, he will in tuture avoid indulging in it.

A curious discovery has been made ab Lyons, where a concierge, while cleaning out a cellar in the Croix Rousse Quarter, came across a bombshell half embedded in the ground. Further examination of the cellar led to the finding of four more, of which one is of the calibre of nine inches. Two of the projectiles were empty, and three fully loaded.

This wonderful 1'';r'rv.'ino Tonic has only recently been introduced into this country by the proprietors and manufacturers of the Great blrallth American Nerviiie Tonic, and yet its great value as a curative agent has long been known by a few of the most learned physicians, who have not brought its merits and value to the knowledge of the general public. This medicine has completely soli% 3 the problem of the euro of indi- gestion, dyspepsia, and diseases of the general nervous system. It is also of the greatest value in the euro of all forms of failing health from. whatever cause. It performs this by the great nervine tonic qualities which it possesses, and by its great curative powers upon the digestive organs, the stomach, the liver and the bowels. No remedy compares with this wonderfully valuable Nervine Tonic as a builder and strength, ener of the life forces of the human body, and as a great renewer of a broken-down constitution. It is also of moro real permanent value in the treatment and euro of diseases of the lungs than any consumption "Amedy ever used on this continent. It is a marvelous cure for nerv- ousness of females of all ages, Ladies who are approaching the critical period known as change in life, should not fail to use this great Nervine Tonic, almost constantly, for the space of two or three years. It will carry them safely over the danger. This great strengthener and cura- tive is of inestimable value to the aged and infirm, because its great energizing properties will give them a new hold on life.

As a cure for every class of' Nervous Diseases, no remedy has been able to compare with the Nervine Tonic, which is very pleasant and harmless in all its effects upon the youngest child or the oldest and most delicate individual. Nine -tenths of all the ailments to which the human family is heir aro dependent on nervous exhaustion and impaired diges- tion, When there is an insufficient supply of nerve food in the blood, a general state of debility of the brain, spinal marrow, and nerves is the result. Starved nerves, like starved muscles, become strong, when the right kind of food is supplied; and a thousand weaknesses and ailments disappear as the nerves recover. As the nervous system must supply all the power by- which the vital forces of the body are carried on, it is the first to suffer for want of perfect nutrition. Ordinary food does not con tain a sufficient quantity of the kind of nutriment necessary to repair the wear our present mode of living and labor imposes upon the nerves. For this reason it becomes necessary that a nerve food be supplied. This South American Nervine has been found by analysis to contain the essential elements out of which nerve tissue is formed. This accounts for its universal adaptability to the cure of all forms of nervous de- . rangement. nE I. n. Aug. 20,8C. (S nils American. \ A g To the true South, d1 sire tori ay tofyoL'o.
