FAMOUS BROOD  MARE.
A.   Good   Combination   of   Trotting   and
"Running Blood.
More attention is latterly being paid
to the excellence of broodmares. A stallion is likewise coming to be valued
more and more on account of his ability
to sire brood mares which in turn become the dams of horses famous ou the
race track.
Mambrinon Patchen was one of the
most famous brood mare sires this country has known. He was the grandsire,
so to speak, of the beautiful brood mare

bay, with a star in her forehead and
two white feet behind. She is 15Jrf

three of her colts abovenamed are pacers.
Feeding Domestic Animals.
The general principles of feeding animals are outlined in an important bulletin of the agricultural department compiled by Assistant Director Allen of the
oftice of experiment stations. The conditions of the market, says the report,
must govern the selections of feeding
stuffs for the stock. Experiments show
that hay from tie leguminous crops, as
clover, lupines, alfalfa and cowpea contains about twice as much digestible
protein as hay from the grasses, and accordingly the seeds of those plants are
recommended by the department as substitutes for the expensive commercial
seeds.
There has been considerable misconception as to the value of cooking or
steaming food for stock. Experiments,
however, indicated that cooking or
steaming coarse or unpalatable food is
advantageous, not on account of making
the food more nutritious, but in inducing the animals to eat larger quantities.
Boiling cotton seed is reported advantageous for steers. Soaking -wheat for
pigs is quite generally recommended and
the report advocates soaking corn for
steers if it can be done for 6 cents a
bushel. Experiments have been made to
show that the relative productions of fat
aud lean meat can be largely influenced
by feeding. Nitrogenous foods like
shorts, middlings and dried bloo<L.as
compared with cornmeal fed alone,
tends, it is shown, to increase the production of lean pork to fat.
The recently prevailing low price of
wheat has led to its rise to a consider-
•able extent as a food for growing and
fattening animals. The experience of
the last two years has evidenced the high
value of wheat as a feed for all kinds of
stock Farmers in the west have fed it
extensively and with practically universal satisfaction. The department estimates that np to last November upward
of 46,000,000 bushels of wheathadbeen
fed by the farmers of the United States.
It shonld be fed, however, with other
grains.
' 'With the present lowprice of wheat,"
the report concludes, "farmers are advised to keep for feeding all wheat
which will not bring the price of first
class grain, and to sell only the first
quality wheat. If possible, the wheat
should be graded rather than sold at an
inferior price."
"Live Stock Points.
A writer contends that trotting and
pacing are mere modifications of the
same gait. Still, if yon-want to ride
horseback, the pacing gait appears to be
very much more agreeable than the
trotting one.
For poor, hilly land the Cotswold
sheep has proved his -value and staying
qualities.
Cultivate a good, brisk walking gait,
even among your farm horses. Cultivate
the same gait in yourself. It requires no
more exertion to walk quickly and get
there than it does to poke along and take
all day for a thing. Farmers are great
sinners in this respect.
One of the shrewdest of the owners of
fast trotters on the Pacific coast is Mrs.
Severance of Los Angeles.
They do things queerly in """"ranee. At
Marseilles there is a trotting association.
At a meeting for ponies and amateur
trotters under 15 hands high the premium was carried off by the aged mare
Hebe at a 3:11 % minute to the mile
gait.
Corn, wheat and all the grains come
under the head of starchy foods, or carbohydrates, and the American people
feed their stocktoo much carbohydrates,
and themselves eat too much. It is easy
to starve to death on stareh. We ought
to include far more nuts, fruits and lean
meats in our own diet, and we should
give our live stock less corn and more
feeds in the nature of oil meals, root
crops, clover, alfalfa, etc.
Sure to Be the Case.
"I can't tell you," said the experienced suburbanite in reply to the question of his new neighbor, "whon the
next train goes, but I can tell you what
your chances of catching it are."
"What are they?" inquired the new
neighbor eagerly.
"Well, if you run as hard as yon
can," said the experienced resident,
"you have 15 minutes to wait, and if
you merely walk you'll find the train
just pulling out."—Chicago News.
