Early new year eve the small boy began to show his appreciation of the new year by a generous use of firecrack- érs.and roman candles. The general celebration however was reserved for midnight. Just as the clock struck 12 the aged and shrinking 1895 stepped aside to make room tor the young roseate 1896, cand at that instant even the air in Fort Worth began to vibrate with the mighty noise of the farewell tothe old year and welcome to the new. Withthe first strike of the clock } innumerable pistol shots were heard in all parts of the city. Then every steam whistle for miles around took up the chorus. The bells began to peal forth joyous sounds, the shouts of cit- ‘wens everywhere told ofa great event, while the air was ablaze with rockets and roman candles. The noise was deafening an lasted about 15 minutes, There hangs around and about the old time honored custom memories ‘sweet and dear and memories full of sadness, yet with all the sadness that the watch meeting calls up it bears al- Ways with it more joy than sorrow. ~ Treceived some very nice presents, ‘and one that I prized more than all others is a lovely crown that is a work of art.

W.H. FLEMING. A Man With Toe Much Money. In France the Lebaudy case is the sensation of the day. . Lebaudy was a young man who was handicapped by the disadvantage of having too much money. Unfortunate- ly he inherited great wealth and his lav- ish manner of living made him conspic- When the time came for him to serve in the army he tried to be relieved on the gronnd of physical disability, and many reputable physicians certified that he wasunfit for military duty. But the people and the + newspapers raised: uous. such aclimog that the minister of war was afraid to do the man justice. The millionaire conscript, though sul- fering from consumption. had to go into the army, and then to a hospital. Time and again the doctors begged for his re- lease, but the authorities refused. The young man had too much money.. If discharged the newspapers would be certain to accuse somebody of accept- ing a bribe, and no one cared to face the consequences. Several persons, including society ladies and journalists, fleeced the gutferer en his death bed out of millions, promising to secure his release, but their efforts were unavailing, and he died in the hospital. His sweetheart left her position in a theater and went to his bedside to nurse him, remaining with him to the last. She now refuses to accept his fortune which he bequeath- ed to her, Since Lebaudy’sdeath there is a re- vulsion of public feeling, and it is now the general verdict that the authorities treated him very unjustly. It is one of the few cases in which aclever man was persecuted to death because he had too much money. po ernment nt IF YOU HAD A LOAD OF WOOD TO SELL and told every man you met that you had a load ot wood to sell, and every man you met would in turn tell every man he met that you hada load of wood to sell and every man you met would in turn tell every man he met that you had a load of wood to sell, it would, in course of time, become pretty well circulated that you had a load of wood to sell ; but why not cut it short-—not the ‘wood, but the method—and place a good ad in a good newspaper and tell everybody at once, “Delays are dam, gerous,” and a good newspaper would start in where the last man left oft: and keep on telling everybody that you had a load of wood to sell; or an fortable and handsome residences, bothj = hin columns of the “imped Lee Re oar tt ine aun iia E raised by the publication in the reports of the Commissiner of Labor that it costs five and a half cents a pound to produce cottoii in North Carolina, but the consensus of opinion is that in 1895 cotton was made at that cost. The Commissioner ot Agriculture in Texas estimates that the farmers of that State have made from 2 to 3 cents per pound more than they expected when the crop was planted. This result he attributes to the decreased acreage and the small crop; and he holds that they would not have received more than 5 cents a pound had the crop been an average one. Commenting on this estimate, the Commissioner says : “Some planters are grumbling be- cause they did not plant more cotton and less corn. A little figuring would show them that in proportion to the increase in the cotton crop the price would be reduced, and more money would have been. required to cultivate it and to gather it, which would leave less profit. If the coming crop is in- creased generally, as we hear some farmers talk of doing, anda full aver- age yield is produced, they will find cotton below 5 cents the current year. The wise course for farmers to pursue is to plant a sufficient crop of corn and all other kinds of crops needed. for home consumption and enough for their non-producing . neighbors, and after that to devote their attention to cotton, if they prefer. growing cotton for market to the raising of pork and mutton.” ——— Eleven Times a Bride. Mrs. Jacob Thorn, of New York, is alleged to have no less than cleven husbands. Three of these are living in Russia. The other eight are citizens of the United States. When about 20 years of age she was wedded to Myer Hurewetz, in Russia. Neither from him nor from any one of the succeed- ing husbands, it is claimed, has she been divorced. . | Now, Jacob Thorn, her last hus- band, has applied in the superior court for tha annulment of his marriage. He was under the impression when he married herthat she was divorced, but letters from Russia disabused him of this. ‘Che second husband’s name was Isaac Winawetz. The names of the third and fourth husbands are un. known. The fifth husband rejoiced in the name of Baron Ekebaum. Mr. Kkebaum lived with his wife ten months. Aaron Kaslofsky became the sixth, but he left after a short honey- moon. These six and Mr. Thorn are the seven husbands mentioned in the complaint. But since that was drawn up Lawyer Price has struck other lines. of discovery, and previous hus- bands are turning up on the average of one amonth.

C.’ a Fertilizer Analyses at Experiment Station. The station has now in preparation a bulletin which will contain the result of all fertilizer analyses made during the year 1895, both spring and fall in- spections. This will be distributed in advance of the analysis of fertilizers on sale in 1896, so that an idea will be giv- en of the standing of each brand during the coming year. It will be issued im- médiately and will be mailed to all names on the station’s mailing list. This bulletin will be No. 124. During the season of 1896 special bi-weekly bulletins will be issued which will contain analyses of fertilizers as fast as they are completed. It will be remembered that the inspectors sample the fertilizers after they are placed on sale in North Carolina, consequently the samples represent actually what is bought by farmers. The bi-weekly bulletins are mailed only to those w':o request them. If you want them, ap- ply to Dr. H. B. Battle, Director, Ra- leigh, N. CO. \ Epidemic of “Staggers” Among Horses. During the late summer and fall, in a section: of eastern North Carolina, an epidemic among horses has annually oc- curred amounting toa loss each year of perhaps 10 per cent. Tha matter ap- pearing of so much importance, the con- sulting veterinarian of the experiment station (Dr. F. P. Williamson) was sent to make a personal examination. The following has been gleaned from his re- port: The symptoms as given are sud- den in their development. Sore throat, water cofning through nose on attempt- ing to drink, rapid breathing, loss of appetite, and one of three things, the animal either walks around in a circle to one side over any object in the wv without apparently seeing it(**blind sta gers’’), or remains perfectly stil oweta eyes partially or completely closet wit a- out taking the slightest iuterest ia sae. roundings nuless aroused (‘tsleem vt gers’’), or@ashes about furicusiy wit out regard to self, people or things; (‘mad staggers’}). An obstinate con- stipation accompanies each case. The land lies very low in this district, there being many swamps and ditches through the farms,and on each side of the road the ditches are filled with reddish | brown stagnant water. The vegetation is very rank, the dews are very heavy and do not dry off before noon the next day? The horses have very little pro- tection as a rule. On some farms there are no barns at all for ltousing stock. The animals are simply turned in a rough shed to eat, then turned out again exposed to wind, rain and sun. Wherever they are stabled it is claimed they are never affected as shown by the experience of one farmer who has not lost a single case in several years. An- other, who had not lost a horse in thir- teen years, let his run to pasture night and day this year and lost them. An- ther had four pasturing; three of these e put up at night, leaving one out at all times, except at feeding. The one left out died, the other three are in good condition. Many other cases might be noted, but this is enongh to show that where the animals are protected from the weather (the heavy dews, rain and wind storms, for this occurs always after a rainy, hot season) they are free from any sickness. Two animals dying from the disease were found by autopsy tc have died with pneumonia (complicated with pleurisy in ine first here ‘The staggering gait, the sleepy -ancon- mcionee. the madness are caused by the toxine taken into the blood from the diseased lung tissue, or from want of | reoxygenation of the blood, the brain is | not properly fed, animals being affected according to individual disposition. The suggestion would be to provide bet- ter stables and take more care of the horses, Keep animalsin stable at night if atno other time. Animals already affected should be given a bolus or a drench of Barbadoes aloes one ounce, calomel dr. 1. If this remains inactive 16 hours, follow with 1 qt. raw linseed oil, Every three hours should be given 4 o2./acetate of ammonia, 2 dr. nitrate drench. Food should be restricted to gruel, bran mash, or something easily digested, About three or four buckets of drinking water should be given a day.

I have been preaching such economy for 20 years and have only succeeded in advancing the ~ wonderful utility of cowpeas as a hay, not’asking too much of you. Tha infor- mation sought would be very valuable to many of us.—A. J., Greenvil e, N.C. [Answered by F. E. Emery. turist, N.C. Experiment Statidn.] most farmers need information. There are men who haul wood to this city at $2.00 to $2.50 per cord and buy timothy hay at $20 per ton to feed their teams. Corn stalks are left to fall down in the field by them and their neighbors, It is fairly capable of demonstration that the wasted stalks if fed with a meal ration can replace the hay at « lower cost for the ration than hay, corn and oats ag fed. Youasked for commercial value when it seems comparative feeding value is what is desired. Commer- cially, timothy hay outranks all others, That is the kind to raise to sell, but to feed at home would be a different ques- tion. When the climate would suit, earlier grasses would be used and some others would be grown with timothy. There is a tendency to calculate food, into heat equivalents. That is, food is burned in the animal body and pro- duces its effect in heat and nerve forces. which may, or not, be a-form of expres- sion for heat. The digestible portions. of foods are reduced to heat equivalents by adding to the sum of digostible pro- tein’? and ‘carbohydrate’ 2.27 times the digestible fat. This will give a fair comparison of timothy hay with the other articles named above and included in the fol- lowing table: It is perhaps the nearest comparative of actual feeding value though it is manifestly unfair commercially since it - makes no account of the greater cost of protein as compared with carbohydrates. The heat values are considered equal. Considerable matter relating to the sub- ject of the above queries will be found in our digestion bulletins and some of the data contained in the table could not be given but for those experiments. As it is, several foods are calculated on an assumed digestibility. These are Bermuda hay, taken from Bulletin 73 of this Station. Orab grass hay, the composition of which was determined at the Tennessee Experiment Station, and the digestibility assumed as for hay of annual grasses in Bulletin 73. Pea hulls are here assumed to be equal to “bean hulls” and Professor Stew- art’s calculation of digestibility is All the other articles have Leon sub- jected to digesiion in American experi- ments = a “— | Se © Fee § /223) S825azcesszeng & 3 OAs .B |joes; * ‘a ne > Nog . .
