If i tiltv- for entering In thin elmm inu not of the strictest kind the lneiuluius aie very upt to go to pine bred cattle mas querading as grades, writes .I. Giant Monui In lliunl New Yorker. It In n gieat deal easier to thou a pure-hied ns n grade than it Is to show a grade as n puio-bred, and if there Is any thing in breeding the grades would stand n poor chance by the t-ide of puro-hredu especially titled by a pro fessional showman. At llrnt one would say that it will bo vei easy to pick out the best cows by simply milking them and weighing und test lug tho milk, but in my opinion this would not bo a fair way at all, for the best dairy cows aio of a eiv bich nervous temperament and for this , Prize Winner for reason the best cow In tho lot might make tho poorest showing under such conditions as sho would meet w Ith on tho stato fair grounds. A few years ago I sold a leglBteied Jersey cow to 11 mcicant In a neighboring village, under those conditions: I delivered tho cow and told hia man how to feed Iier and at the end of a week I was to como back and either take the row away or get my pay for her. ns the buyer should decide ns to lier vnlue. Well, at tho end of tho week I went back and tho man paid mo for tho cow. But after ho paid mo for her ho tokl me that If I had como back In tho middle of the week he should have told mo to take the cow away. The first day sho gave n gootl flow of rich mlllt, but tho next sin.' began to go off, both in quantity and quality, and sho gave only a very small moss of very poor milk. Then sho began to got back to a normal i-ondltlon, so that by tho end of the week sho had won her way back into tho good graces of tho family. So SELF-FEED BOX FOR THE HORSE Skctcli Showing Arrangement Thut W1U Prevent Animal from EiiUnir too Rapidly. Sumo horses have a habit of eating thoir feed too fast If It Is placed loosely in a box. This can bo easily Tomedled by making a self-feedor on tho feed box, says Popular Mechanics. The accompanying sketch shows how Feed Box for Fast Ea,tlng Hor6e. a feeder can bo mado similar to a poultry feed hopper. Tho box can be mode of one-inch hoardB lnrgo enough to hold ouo feed. Tho horse can get tho grain only In small quantities, so ho cannot eat moro rapidly than ho should. Tho bottom must bo made with enough slant to Insure all of tho feed coming out in tho trough, GROWING GOOD BEEF CATTLE Feed Grown On tho Furm Prop erly Prepared und Fed Makeo the Mont Profit to tho lirccder. It takes lovo for tho business, In dustry and skill to grow beef cattlo prolltnbly. Ab tho Drovors' Journal says, tho feed grown on tho farm prop urly prepared and fed makes tho best prntlt in beef growing. Cattlo must not bu forced by ovei feeding of grain at tho commencement of tlio fattening process. Corn and oats, ground to gothor with bran and lluseed meal mnko nil excellent grain ration for oattlo at tho beginning of tho feeding pioccES. After cattlo aro woll started more corn can be fed, as corn Is tho Mm tee that this cow would huu made a ery poor showing In a pub lic mill: test. I think that the only piactical wu in Judge Jhu.e cows Is by looking at tlam and the man who docs the Judg ing sdiould be one of wide expcilence v. Itli dulrj cattle, lie should not only nnili r.Miitxl cows as mllkein, but ho nimbi to bo acipialntcd with the dlf feient kinds of puiebieds fioni wlibh th y ate giaded. These cows hhould be Judged bj a si ore of points, but not the seoie caid of any one bleed Iir Instance, iln .Jersey scoie card calla for a cow with "dished face, wide between tho eyes and narrow between the horns," whilo these chniacterlstlcs are lacking In some other breeds The shape of a cow's head doesn't base anything to do with her milking capacity in some people'!) opinion, but l think that the head Is tho most characteristic part apl "Best Dairy Cow." by which we may determine the pos session of the high nervous tempera ment necessary In the best daily cow If I were going out after good dairy cows I should have In mind one with a long, deep bturel with well-sprung ribs. The shouldcri, would lie thin, but she would be deep and wide through the chest. Her hips should bo long and very wide, but her thighs should be thin und dovold of much flesh. She should have a good, shape ly neck and a nice, intelligent bend, devoid of much tlesh. If sho were frcbh I should expect a good, big ud der with largo teats placed far apait, and her milk veins should be large and clastic and bhould extend well up toward her fi out legs and termi nate In huge "milk wells." With this conformation I should want to find tho cow with a bright, healthy-looking eye and a general alert appearance, then if hor coat looked thrifty and her skin had u soft, nice feeling, I should think I bad found a good "milking machine," In excellent working ordei principal grain depended upon to lln I.di cattlo for market. For roughage nothing excels nllalfn, and Rome feeders believe that alfalla alone will fatten cattle as fast iif corn and timothy hay Clover It adinir able for roughage. Cattlo should hi marketed when they aro in prlmo con dltlon and not finished for show ani mals. Kxtreino ilnlsh is expensive and often reduces the profits of feed lug operations and should not he at tempted in commercial fattening for tho geneial market. GROWING COW PEAS FOR MORE PROTEIN That Recommendation Iti Mude to Improve tho Fond in tho SMo Mix Them with Corn. For tlio purposo of getting more protein food in tho silo with corn, Hoard's Daiiymnn recommends grow ing cow pcnB in tho corn, and snys tho Whlppoorwlll peas nro considered nbout tho best to plant with the corn. It Is not as leafy ns boiuo of tho other varieties, but on account of its climb lug habit, clings to tho corn better than tho others nnd makes It ensy for tho corn binder to renp tho crop. Some plant nbout one gallon of corn and two gallons of peas per acre, or sow tho peas nfter tho corn Ib about six inches high; while othorB in plant lug corn, drop a grnln of corn every 12 to M Inches and two or three peas every olght to ten Inches. Silage mndo from cow peas and corn mixed together Is better thnr from cow peas alone. Another system of gutting moro protein into tho Blluge is to grow tho cow pens and corn separately and mix them us they ate being put Into tho silo. LIVE 8TOCK NOTES. It is not always wise to feed tho same amount or grnln to both horses in ono tcniu. One may need moio than the other to keep it Jn good henlth nud woiklnp condition, It may bo stated as general rule that when a sheep gets sick nnd you don't know how to doctor It, It Is n good plan to nllow naturo to tuko its courio. Proper care, light feeding and protection against exposure will worJj wonders.

Suggestion and Practical Thought. 1 I .me Coirpletes All Virtue, and Make. Perfect All the (loud Things of Mfo.VB. I It. First. Kloiiuence, unln hplred by real love, not seeking tho highest good of the hearer, Is but "sounding brnss, or a tinkling cym bal;" mere noise without harmony, without meaning, without the soul of music. This Is true even if we had the gift of tong"us bestowed by the Holy Spirit at Pentecost. Second. Knowledge Is poweiless to build up character and the Christian life, unless it is guided and filled with loe. Third Faith. 2 "And though I have all faith, so that I could remme mountains." as promised In Matt 17:20; 21:21. the mightiest und most enduring faith. One iiay hae the most strenuous fultli in the facts and doctrines of Christianity, without tlio faith that moes and touches the heart, fnith that knows but doea not obey. "And have not chailty." He does not asset t that one can have these things without love, but says If ho could: "I am nothing" A moral cipher, without nny moral worth or signlficence; weighed In the balance and to 11 ml wanting. Fourth. Almsgiving. ".. "And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor." As the Pharisees gavo alms and Ananias sold his property from unwoithy motives, without love; whilo Barnabas and ninny nthors sold theirs fiom love, and Jesus bade the rich young man do the same, us an expression of lovo and faith. Fifth. Martyrdom. "And though 1 givo my body to he burned.'" From unwoithy motives, from pride, for 11 desire for honor or glory. There are peisecutcd upon whom Jesus pro nounces Ills highest blessing (Matt. 5:10-12), but thoy aro persecuted "for righteousness' sake." Yet even of these thlnt'H, when done without love, It must bo snld, "it proflteth me noth ing" There Is no virtue in it to be rewarded. It does not Improve the character nor aid the cause. II. Tho Spectrum of Love. The Qunllties Which Are Combined In Per fect I.ove. Vs. 4-7. The nbsolutc im portance of love, aB nn essential part of nil viitues and actions, has been shown in tho first threo verses. Our next duty Is to learn what lovo Is. LIko life, lovo cannot be defined, but It enn bo described and recognized by what it docs, by Its fruits, by tlio expression of its qualities. It Is like life. Tho greatest scientists cannot tell what It Is In ItR essence, but only describe it by qualities and results. First Ingredient. Patience. 4. "Char ity (love) suffereth long." Is pntlent with the faults and provocations of others, never weary of "well doing." Second Ingredient Kindness. "And Is kind." Kindness Is lovo working, lovo In nctlon, doing "ns many kind things" to ns ninny people ns possible. Third Ingredient. Ooneioslty. "Clunity envioth not." Selfishness, the opposite of love, Is the soil in which envy grows. Fourth Ingredient. Humility. "Clinr lty vauntoth not itself," does not sound tho praises of Its own deeds, nor proclaim Its virtues with a trumpet. "Is not puffed up." With self-conceit, as a soap bubble, large in size, but mostly wind. Fifth Ingredient. Courtesy. 5 "Doth not behavo Itself unseemly." Almost all unseemly conduct flowE from Jirldo nnd selfishness. Sixth Ingredient Unselfishness "Seeketh not her own." Is not look ing out for self first of all. It seeks to give moro than to receive. Seventh Ingredient Good Temper "Ib not easily provoked." It does not lose Its temper. Tho peculiarity of ill temper Ib that It Is tho vlco of tho virtuous. It Is often tho one blot on nn othcrwlso noblo clinrncter. No form of vlco is moro bnso; not world llness. not greed of gold, not drunken ness Itself, does moro to un-Chrlstlan Izo society than evil temper. Eighth Ingredient. OuIIelcssncsb. "Thlnketh no evil." Lovo puts the best construction upon tho nets of others, Instead of tho worst, as many do. Ninth Ingredient. fiincerity. 0. "Kejoicoth not In Iniquity." is not glnd whon othors sin, hates to report tho weaknesses and fnults of othors, refuses to ccem good by depreciating others. "Rojoicoth In tho truth." Hot ter ns R. V "rojoicoth with tho truth," Is In sympathy with all that Is true, rojoicoth whenever It can find a vir tue or good deed In others, Joys in tho triumph of virtue. It "benreth nil things." Tho Greek meaua to protect, ns a shield protects a soldier. Or tho sides of a ship protect It ngainst tho InruBh of tho "multitudin ous sens," or wnll and battlements bear nil attacks of nn Invading army. It "bellovoth all things;" haB perfect conlldonco in God as tho God of love. Its very naturo Is to hope. "Kn rudroth nil things." Goes on bear ing, believing, nnd hoping to tho end Tho Immortal Three. V. 13. "And now," Jn conclusion, "ahldoth faith, hopo, charity." Thcso threo grac s, faith, hope, love remain Import di able nnd immortal. "Hut tho greatest of theso Ib charity." Lovo. 1. It l jrooUt in Its nnturo. I CORN 1 $&& Mite.
