The text chosen was Luke iv., 10: “And he came to Nazaretl, where he had been brought up, and, a8 his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day and stood up forto read.4 He spoke in substance us fol- lows: “It is tinnaily Christ we only by keeping before us that can come to an understanding of his character, By so doing we may hope to some day come to a full understanding of his 1i con- hist did almost everything a man is or. dinarily called uponto do.

Harry Horne last night, as he told the story of the hauling down of the United States flag from stand of the Toronto In- dustrial exhibition. Captain Horne is a long- haired Nebraskan and a veteran of the late war. He had a Wild West show in Canada. When the flag was hauled down at Toronto and the crowd stamped upon it hegrabbed his gun and ran to the rescue. In about two minutes he had theflag and the jeering crowd had suddenly become res ful. Sub- scquently another flag was raised on the nd stand, but it was taunted and reviled in & way that preyed upon Captain Horne's spirits An American tourist, pleased with his com- patriot’s act, purchased alarge flag and_ sent, itto the captain. The Nebraskan pinned “O1d to his tent flap, loaded his Wi and notified the world that if that flag came down or wi sulted some- thing would drop.

H.C., Cambridge, the Breode sotte. sample of ourcorn, I opinion us to its sh., writes to “Enclosed find a would like your cding qualities. Some it is worthless; others that it w'll make good feed, Our corn cropis all dried up by the hot winds, and there are noearson itfo speak of. Weare cut- ting andthrowing it on the ground in piles.

We have no np, wet weather here in the winter, Small grain was a failure, and this corn- fodder is all wo have to depend on, and we want to make the best out of it we can. What cutter would you recommend? This is the worst time that ever struck this country, and cconomy will be prac- ticed in every conceivable way. Let me hear from you in next we Gazette, ‘Which is the cheaper, to feed bran and shorts at $120 ton or cornat 50 cents perbushel? Will one acre of this dried- up fodder carry o cow through five months with nothing else? There are many anxious farmers waiting to hear from this.”” Just one year agy the writer passed through N knand well recalls the wonderful corn crop about Cambridge and from there clear across the country to the Mississippl itself, says Prof, Lends in the Gazette. [t seems impos- sible that the samples sent can faiyl represent the crop there this year. Tho sumples ave from stalls in ve imm ture condition, the lavgest about the quarters of an inch in dianmeter. The islittle or no sugar in them, and thei feeding value cannot he v great. So much for the worst side; the question is how tomake the best of it. First and most important, all of the fodder should be Ithink the idea of cutting and throwing in heaps an admirable one for that section. Immature corn shocked frthe usual way does not stand up weil, and seems to crumble and uste away badly besides gro ving dingy. In these ~heaps, under fair conditions, the fodder will cureout muchas hay does ina cock and keep bright. With such a vast arca fn corn there should be fater all a very considerable amount of feed, in the uggrogate, even from corn as immature as this, Do not for a mement at such a time as this, think of buying a feed cutter, which with the carvier will cost $75, Put every spare dollar into the feed and lot the machinery wi Your cattle have plenty of time to chew up the stacksto the very butts and they will thank you a good Bt R ful of corn or ~a quart of bran than for what the feed cutter will do. In regard to corn at 50 cen and shorts at $12 per ton, at these prices bran and shorts cost 60 cents a hundred and corn 90 cents, or 50 per cent more per hundred weight than bran and shorts. The following shows the num- ber of pounds of proteine carbo-lydrates and fat in each food: saved. She It will be seen that the prices favor the bran and shorts. With the kind of fodderat hand I recommend the bran and shorts, though some corn will be valuable as its sustaining power is vere great, The inquiry whether an acre of fodder will sustaina cow for the winter is not d, for it is impossible to definitely from the samples the amount of fodderon an acre. EFrom our experience I am certain a cow would eat 100 poundis of perfectly green fodder not more mature than this. This would not make more than twenty or twenty-five pounds of cured fodder, * If the corn has grown to full height and the ems have started I should put the gross weight, supposing all of the leaves und stalks to be perfectly green, at not less than fif- teen thousand pounds to the acre for Nebraska corn. ~So that an acre of such would probubly last a cow through the winter, Ifthe stalks have not reached full height, in just so much will they fall short of accomplishing the stated result, “inally, T urge your people not to lose ads and make any foolish move while the calamity isupon them. Just now bend every energy to saving evel thing in sight for feed. Even the weeds on the roudsides, if they spring up yet {his fall, can be cut and 1made ino some- thing that will be welcome to a starving cow. If Lieutenant Greeley and his fol- lowers could keep themselves alive for days on leather, why should we hesitate about saving anything for stock that may spring out of the soil? If the state of Nebrasku will only save all of its corn fodder and malke the best possible use of it her people will be surprised to find how far that feed alone will go toward sus- taining all the cattle withinher borde If people i their extremity come to learn the high value of corn fodder the drouth will havedone some good, though we all wish the lesson had comoe in some more pleasant yanner, Can Geass be Overdone, Hogs ave down, butter is low, cattle have been at bed-rock, horses fluctuate, sheep vary, “What is stable?

Sotham, a I-known breeder who has been introducing pure bred stock to South Ameriea and selling largely to our western ranchmen, writes the Rural New Yorl The promises for this year as regards the demand for pure bred bulls for the range counties have been move than ful- filled. Ten years ago the ranges were thou tobe tnlimited, and ranchmen sought numbers rather than quality; later lish, Scoteh und other foreign and ea ern capitalists eagerly sought inv ments in western cattle and ranches Money floated in, and the west said to have been built up as lar from this influx of capital s from any other source, Precious few ever again received the principal, “let alone’ the interest, for this money stayed in the west. Large amounts of it were in- vested in blooded bulls, but looking back on those days, pure blood wus not intel- ligently used, and the fact is that with the relapse of depression in the industry pure bred bulls could havdly be gi away. In the y from 1889 the ranchmen seemed abso- lutely to have ‘“no for good bulls, and it has taken them three yeurs to discover that well-bred bul are not plaything ated to satisfy o whim or faney, but that they are a very legitimate investment, and that their introduction into a herd, followed by good, common-sense management of the bulls and their produc ns dividends where before there was a deficit. The daily markets at Chicago, Kansas City, Omaha and St. Lows afford the most practical lesson of the value of good blood. It has been demonstrated that the only hope of the cattlo vaiser who would better his condition and mauke more than a beggarly living lies through the pure breeds of beef cattle, which will enable him to produce an_article fit for the tables of the well-to-do of America and fit for the historic board of John Bull; in short, en- able him tobreed for the block instead of thecans, It is such choice beef as graces the shops of the eastern and En- glish markets that is searce and h priced; thousands, yes, millions of 1 civilized and ignorant people are gaged in various parts of the world in rearing cattle fortheir hides and a pit- tance for their flesh, whichis put upin tins to feed the armies of the old wor If the people of our grazing distriets did not intelligently use well-bred bulls in 1880, the sume isnot true of 1890, This spring a revival in tl attle business generaily took place, cattlemen bought up the entire bull produce of the beef Dbreeds, and there were not enough to go around. These bulls were bought ut their practical value as a legitimate in- vestment, their purchasers securing them for the purpose of improving the ca ses and feeding qualities of their herds The fact is that the financial salvation of all beef raisers lies through the use of the blood of the beef breeds of that sturdy, low-set, broad-backed and deep- fleshed type that we have learned to look for ina well-bred Hereford, Short-horn or Scoteh black poll. use’ Stacking Fodder. 1 have tried various plans of stacking or piling up corn fodder convenient to the feeding lots, writes N. J. Sheph in the Western Stockman and Culti tor. Tam convined that a long ric the best form of stack for fodder. stacking T lay down some poles ov to keep the fodder off the ground, mak- ing this bottom as long I intend building the rick. At oneend of this I sct a strong post firmly in the ground. The bottom should not be wider than the length of the fodder, T begin building at the post and luy the fivst layer, buts all one way. The second layer I lay the buts the other way, being cuveful to let them extend far enough to cover the tops of the firs layer. The third layer Iturn the buts the same as those of the first layer, and so_on, alternating the layers with buts and pits until the pile is” brought up as high as we desire to make it. Care must be taken not to let the pile get wider than the length of a sheaf and that it is built plumb. When the body of the rick is built lay a layer across this lengthwise of the vick tofill up the center,und on this lay another layer the direction of the main bulk of fodder. This, if cavefully done, will make a sort of roof which will shed the water A down in sections from one end as w. and the fodder will not be much ¢ to the weather during feeding time. Fodder stacked in this way will keep bet- ter than any other wuy except under n roof. I have built alarge shed on pur- pose to store corn fodder, I am con- vineed that eorn fodder properly handled is a most valuable feed, and where thor- ough shelter cannot be given it a well- built vick is the best method of keep- ing it. I built in this way can be taken nted nosed Giving Sulphur to Poultry. We do not approve of the use of kind of mineral medicine to fowls e when the birdsare in good health, rmand PFireside. It is a habit 2 to give sulphur, condiments, and other deleterious substar to all the fowls, If such a practice should prevail with human beings, it would not be long hefore sickness would result, yet the fowls are dosed daily, the result | ing injury, which is then ac ed to anything but the true cause. Sulphur wili eause rheumatism in adults and leg weakness in chicks, and it will, if once itaffects the system, show the effects every winter, ally in damp weather, = Copperis is another mineral poison dosed out in the drinking water of fowls, and it is harmful, it being a poison when taken in quantity, which is the case when the birds are compelled to drink the solution d Avoid all such things. Healthy birds require no stimulants other than sound food, Hogs and Hog Feed, The country Is just now suffering from an unusual season of drought, says A, B.
