A Burgeon in the Italian army giTM
some curious statistiOB of the number
of suicides in the several European
armies, and of the means selected in
different countries to get rid of the
burden of lifo. From the figures set
down it appears that in one year one of
every 1,839 men in the German army
committed suicide; in the French army,
one of every 1,881; in the Belgian, one
of every 2,222; in the English army,
one of every 2.634; and in the Italian
army, only one of every 8,342 men.
With regard to the manner of suicide,
the Italian writer asserts that English
men and Germans prefer getting rid of
their lives by hanging themselves, Irish
men and Frenchmen by jumpinginto tho
water, and Italians by sending a bullet
through their brain or heart. The
number of suicides, again, is found to
be proportionately great among soldiers
in their second or third year of service
than among those who liave more re
cently joined the colors. Dnring the
first year of service, the writer suggests,
the novelty of his work and of his sur
roundings diverts the attention of the
recruit and prevents him from thinking
of self -destruction, while the duties he
has to perform fatigue him excessively;
and a man does not kill himself because
his body is wearied, but because his
mind is oppressed. That cases cf sui
cide are proportionately more frequent
in the army than in civil life, as is no
toriously the case, is not. in the opinion
of tho Italian writer, because of the
hardskips or peculiar conditions of
military service, but because the ma
jority of soldiers with the colors are
just of the age when tho greatest incli
nation to commit suicide prevails.

Feeding Fat Into Milk.
The vexed question of whether it is
possible to feed fat into milk is an
swered very emphatically iij the af
firmative in a eommunicition from C.
W. Jennings, in Hoard's Dairyman,
narrating an experiment conducted by
Messrs. Van Dresser of Cobleskill, N.
Y. The effort was not along the usual
lines of feeding a more nitrogenous
ration, according to one theory, nor
by feeding grains rich in vegetable
fats, according to another, bat by
feeding animal fat in the form of beef
tallow. According to the description
given, four Holstein-Fricsian cows
had been fed forty pounds of ensilage
each per day with hay at neon, and
received in addition sis pounds of a
mixture composed of two parts of
wheat bran and one part each of
cottonseed oil and corn meal. The
skim milk of the cows was also
fed back to them. This, it will be
seen, was pretty liberal and pretty
well balanced feeding. Cow No. 1
weighed 1,1S'. pounds and made on
this ration 14 pounds of butter in
seven days; cow No. 2 weighed 1,130
pounds, and made 12 pounds of butter
in seven davs; cow No.3 weighed 1,168
pounds and made Sf pounds of butter
in seven days; cow No. 4 weighed 1,000
pounds and made 13 pounds and 1
ounce of butter in seven days. On an
average a little over 23 pounds of milk
was" required to make a pound of but
ter. It was resolved to try feeding
pure beef tallow. One-fourth of a
pound was Orst used, shaved -a-nd
added to the grain ration, and this
was gradually increased until each
cow consumed two pounds per day at
the end of t-.vo week?. Cow No. 1
made -'0 pounds of butter in seven
days; cow No. 2, 17:, pounds; cow
No. 3 10 pounds and 14 ounces,
and cow No. 7, 17 pounds
and 1 ounce This result was
reached by a test made at the fifth
week's feeding of tallow, the other
rations of ensilage and grain remain
ing thp same as before the tallow
feeding began. Oaly 1S'4 pounds of
milk were then required to make a
pound of butter. The milk was set in
small pans and the cream churned
with a dash churn. The experiment
took place in April and May. 1892, and
the cows came in fresh from Feb 1 to
March 1 preceding. It is announced
that the experimenters are to repeat
the test beginning in June of this
year. We do not understand that
they have tried it since April and May
two years ago, and this is the sus
picious point in the story. Messrs.
Van Dresser are represented as
having tbirty-two registered llol-tteiu-Friesian
cows eight times
as many as they tested with
the beef tallow feeding. Four of
the cows producing, say, 47 pounds of
butter per week on ensilage and grain
are made to produce 71 pounds by add
ing the tallow to the ration; the
yield was increased one-half. It is
further represented that beef tallow
is worth, with them, three cents a
pound while butter fat is worth twenty-five
cents Assuming that the in
crease could be made on the whole
herd, it would amount to 192 pounds
in seven days, worth M3.00; the cost
of the tallow necessary to make it
would be S13.44; profit S3 !..".. Why
havn't they been making this profit
every week since they found out two
years ago that it could be done? If
six cents worth of tallow can be trans
formed into 24 cents worth of butter
fat by the verv simple process of
passing it through a cow, why don't
those who have discovered that they
can do it go on doing it? We don't
want to set-in to be a doubting Thom
as, and yet it appears strange that
any one who had discovered a process
so simple and so successful should try
it at such rare intervals.

A. X. Hyatt, writing in Farm and
Dairy, says:
1. Thou shalt get a move on thee
early before the patrons, with the
voice of a multitude as it were, or the
voice of mighty thundering, are shout

2. Thou shalt wash thy hands every
day in clean water counsel is mine
clean from under thy nails, soak out
dirty creases and wrinkles, for a dirty
butter maker is an abomination.
3 Thou shalt not let fat escape, for
when thou givest dividends thy pat
rons shalt say, "Why taketh it twenty
five pounds of milk to make a pound
of butter when twenty will do it iust
over the way?" and thou wilt be left
as the beacon on top of a mountain or

4 Thou shalt not add water to our
skim milk and so cheat a whole neigh
borhood of hungry hogs. The Lord
have mercy on thy soul. Ite Dent and

5. Thou must not mix in flies. Dead

Selection or Poultry Stock.
L. G. Jcrvis, speaking before the.
Ontario Poultry association, said:
Farmers fail to keep poultry profitably
because their stock is not adapted to
their circumstances or to the purpose
intended. A great many breeds have
been developed by the poultry fancier,
differing in quality and appearance,
and suited to special requirements.
If the desired feature be in the shape
of egg production, large size of body,
early maturity for the market, or
anything else there is at least some
one of th e breeds adopted for the
purpose lies'-.-1. if only one breed is
tobekrpt, an I both eggs and meat
are required, I would select the Plym
outh Bock, cither the barred or white.
For market purposes and for the
farmer and breeder who keeps fowls
to supply the consumption of eggs
and poultry, the Plymouth Rock has
no equal. If constant laying is re
quired, select the Leghorns, Wyan
dottes, Minorcas or Houdans. The
former will produce the most eggs
aid of fair size and good quality,
while the Wyandottes will lay more
during the winter and will be found a
good table fowl of good sizs. They
mature early, making them a good
market fowl. Minorcas will furnish
the largest eggs, but they are not
quite as hardy as the others, and
having white skin is somewhat against
them for the Canadian market The
Iloudan is the only French fowl suit
able for this climite, and is consid
ered a good, all-round fowl of large
size, an average layer, eggs a good
size next to Minorcas are Spanish;
they are becoming more popular and
will no doubt be one of the leading
breeds for the farmer. Where dead
poult rv for the market is the main ob
ject the I ork " and Hrahraa : in
valuable. They fatten easy and ma
ture early, and have a fine appearance
on the table. They aaay be crossed,
when they will produce the largest
fowls of any cross bred known, and
can hardly be distinguished from the
pure Dorking, so much admired in
England as a table fowl. We have
mentioned the varieties which as a
rule will produce the best results, in
the various circumstances referred to,
and with proper care will prove profit
able to the farmer, and add
greatly to the requirements of
the people. After . ejecting 3 our
stock yuii must proceed to study
and care for them if you expect to
have satisfactory results; for if left to
breed indiscriminately, and onlv get
what food they can pick and without
suitable accomodation, the result will
not bs satisfactory. As regards lay
ing stock, nearly all fowls, under or
dinary circumstances will lay so long
as eggs are cheap; but to produce eggs
in winter means profit and the want
of them as clearly means loss Pullets
hatched early, will moult early and
have the advantage of the warm
weather, and so get through the pro
cess quicker. They are then ready to
commence laying in good time. No
hen should be allowed to see more
than her third autumn; after that
age there is a great falling off in the
egg production. We find that stock
produced from 2-year-old birds will
grow larger and mature earlier than
from young stock. If pullets are to
be bred from they should be mated
with mature males not having over
ten or fifteen hens to each male.
A Forgotten llreeil of Fowl.
It was not ever a quarter of a cen
tury ago that the Sicilian fowls were
attracting considerable attention in
the country, aud many breeders, of
fine and practical poultry were using
them for their daily work, writes
Annie C. Webster in Rural Canadian.
But since then the breed has gradually,
for some reasons, dwindled in popular
estimation, and it is quite rarely that
one sees a full blooded flock now Hut
on account of the practical value of
the breed they should be revived, and
general egg-raisers would fiud it to
their advantage It is not on account
of their fancy points that they deserve
more attention to-day, but on account
of their practical cvery-day laying
value. With the same amount of feed,
attention and pleasant surroundings,
the old Sicilians will yield more eggs,
summer and winter, than either the
Leghorns, Wyandottes, Langshans,
Plymouth Rocks, Minorcas or Duff
Cochins. This is a strong statement
to make, but from all present and past
accounts of this breea they have
always been very prolific layers, and
that is regarded as their chief point of
excellence. The pullets begin laying
from five to six months, not quite as
early usually as the Leghorns, but at
a good early period in their lives
They continue to lay with great regu
larity, and especially in winter do
they pay their way well by producing
a great number of eggs. Of course
this means when the birds are given
warm food, mixed food, and warm,
pleasant quarters. Under poor and
careless management it is not so easy
to predict just what they will do.
There are strong points in favor of
this breed, and others that are against
her. For one thing she is a non-setter,
and it is waste of time and patience to
attempt to make her raise young
chicks. Leave that to less gamy birds
and to the motherly old hens of the
farm yard. Give the Sicilians the
right to lay all they will, and they will
be doing their duty. The birds resemble
the Leghorns in shape, only weighing
on the average a pound more, and with
plumage resembling that of the Golden
Penciled Hamburg, a very pretty and
ornamental fowl for any fancier's
flock. The birds are reasonably hard7,
enduring our cold winters fairly well
when properly protected, and th(y
mature early. These are the chief
points for and against the Sicilians,
but they are sufficient to show that
the breed is a good, practical one for
the average farmer or poultry man
who lays special stress upon the egga.
The earlj- Sicilians were imported to
this country many years ago, but
some think that this genuine breed
died out and that another one was
originated with the same name. At
any rate all owners who had any ex
perience with the fowls agreed that
they were the most prolific layers they
had, but the trouble was they died
ouL as they were non-sitters, and no
systematic attempts were made to set
their eggs under other breeds. Of
1 late years efforts have been made to
j revive the breed, and there are sone
handsome flocks of the

gation laws, water rights, and methods
of constructing large irrigation works
in the various countries visited. They
have made various progress reports
from time to time which have been
printed by the British government in
Australia. These reports contain
much valuable information, and
have led to the adoption of
the system now practiced in
Victoria, which is regarded as
combining the wisdom and best meth
ods of irrigation that can be culled
from the practice of the world.
STATE OWNKItSIIir.
On the subject of irrigation in Italy,
the British commission makes the fol
lowing statement:
"In the first place, it is important to
note that almost all the irrigation
canals in Piedmont and Lombardy
now belong to the state, and the fact
is all the more striking when it is re
membered that a majority of them
were originally constructed by pri
vate enterprise. The reason for this
change of ownership is not difficult of
discovery. As Baird Smith notes, the
dangers arising out of monopoly of
water, apart from the ownership of
the soil, have commended their pur
chase to the statesman. Both pro
cesses, starting out on different prin
ciples, have arrived at the same con
clusion. The Lombard practice of
never separating the water from the
land has palpably produced most ben
eficial results, and, in his judg
ment, was the chief cause of the
rapid multiplication of secondary
canals constructed by the pri
vate enterprise in that province.
"In Piedmont, the state's proprietary
of the water has been almost equally
f fiicacious in encouraging its equitable
distribution; but its ownership of the
headworks has come to be recognized
in each as the best means of insuring
justice to the irrigator."
IN ITALY, FRANCE AND SIWIN.
The commission further states that
"Italian experience, French experi
ence and Spanish experience all go to
show that the interests to be studied
in relation to irrigation schemes are
so many and so various, and so inti
mately bound up with the public wel
fare, that state control is imperatively
necessary, and that for the protccti -n
cf its citizens no monopoly can '0,1
permitted which would separate prop
erty in water from property in land to
which it is to be applied. But at the
same time it is established that while
a general central control by the state
is essential, the business management
and distribution of the water is
much better placed under the local
authority, as this is more effective in
its supervision, more economical in its
administration, and is educational,
also, in a political sense, to a high de
gree. The establishment of a com
prehensive system of irrigation by
private enterprise is possible only
under unusual conditions. If it em
braces many sources of supply, large
areas, or conflicting interests, it is
impossible. The capital required is
large, the returns arc not rapid, aud
the full benefit secured by the clcse
occupation and complete utilization
of considerable areas arc so reduced
that the state could reach those bene
fits in unnumbered ways, and settlers
are not justified in assuming large re
sponsibilities in their initiation. This
becomes palpable when it is perceived
that as in Egypt and Italy, carefully
matured schemes insure an enormous
agricultural production, and the
6 table prosperity of a large number of
producers. It may be safely asserted
from foreign experience of many gen
erations that irrigation is one of the
soundest national investments, where
engineering ability and executive
work are expended upon large canals,
which are afterward taken under
local control, guarded by a carefully
compiled code of water laws and reg
ulations, while the land whose pro
duction is enhanced is charged with
the interest upon the capital expended
in supplying it. All of these condi
tions we ought to possess in Victoria.'
IN VICTORIA.
The investigations of this British
commission led to the adoption of
what may be called the "communal"
principle for reclaiming the arid lands
of Victoria. Water trusts are formed
somewhat similar to the irrigation
district in California under the Wright
act; but these water trusts by law are
under governmental control, and can
only be carried forward by the sanc
tion of the government, which passes
upon the feasibility of the schemc.and
also the available water supply for
the uses of the proposed water trust.
The irrigation act of 1SSU in Victoria
declares the water of all streams to
be the property of the crown, pro
vides for the extinction of any riparian
rights that might prevent the use
of water for irrigation, author
izes the construction of national works
by the state, and enables trusts
directly elected to carry out their
schemes with money advanced from
the public treasury. The succiss of
this method of reclaiming the lands
in Victoria is shown by the following
statement: "When it is recollected
that the first trusts in the colony were
not formed until 1SS2, and the first
irrigation trust not until 1SS4, the
progress that has been made may be
catimated in a general way from trie
fact that there are now twenty-four
water trusts' covering an area of
0,300,000 acres, and six irrigation
trusts covering an area of 3.-u.7
acres, in addition to fifteen applica
tions for the constitution of new irri
gation trusts which will cover nearly
2, 000,000 acres more." It wcu'd seem
from the above facts and conclusions
of the British commission that they
hid adopted the irrigation district
principle now in vogue in California
under what is known as the "Wright
act;"' that the communal principle and
the irrigation district principle arc
similar, except that in Victoria the
government oversight of the irriga
t'on trust is so strong and vigilant as
to prevent abuses and failures, which
have sprung up, in some instances,
under the irrigation district system of
California.
IN WYOMING.
So far as we have proceeded in this
matter as a state, we have made no
mistake in our legislation. We have
observed the fundamental principles
which underlie the problem, and are
now the admiration of the students of
the problem of irrigation in the west.
In the state's control of the water
with its system of administration,
we find that under the laws of 1S90-91
provision is made for the formation of
water divisions for administrative
purposes. The superintendent of
each water division, who is appointed
by the governor, by and with the con
sent of the senate, together with the
state engintcr, make up our state
board of water control, whose duties
are clearly outlined by law. Now it
would be an easy step, in harmony
with present irrigation laws, to make
provision for the creation of irrigation
districts upon the communal principle
of Victoria, with municipal or quasi
municipal powers for the sole purpose
ot reclaiming land. These irrigation
districts would vary in size according
to locality and the amount of land to
be reclaimed from and under the came
system of ditches. Our present sys
tem of water control would still stand
as an excellent method of state con
trol and administration of our water
supply, by which all parties would be
protected in their priority of water
rights and in the adjudication of dis
puted claims.
Heavy Wheat YIcMi.
The following report of wheat yields
in Illinois is compiled from an ad
vance report, furnished by Prof. (J. 1-1
Morrow, director of the Agricultural
experiment station of that state:
At the Illinois station, which is lo
cated at Champaign, on black prairie
soil, the yields for 1S91 were some
what obscured by difference in ex
posure of the plots, and therefore a
smaller yield is not a sure indication
of inferior productiveness under equal
conditions.
The following varieties gave actual
yields exceeding forty bushels per
acre: Golden Cross (synonym of Diehl
Mediterranean.) Mealy, Poole, Oregon,
Valley, Yellow Gypsy, Pickaway,
Witter, Nigger, New Michigan Am
ber, American Bronze, Reck Velvet
(synonym of Velvet Chaff,) Crate,
Missouri Blue Stem, Silver Chaff,
Diehl-Mediterranean, Tasmanian Red,
Golden Prolific, Currills Prolific, Leb
anon, Royal Australian (synonym of
Claws en.)
The following sorts yielded between
thirty and forty bushels: Big English,
Longberry, Wyandot Red. Miami Val
ley, German Emperor, Early Ripe,
Tuscan Island, Ohio Early Ripe, Hy
brid Mediterranean (synonym of
Diehl-Mediterranean), Extra Early
Oakley, Improved Rice, Martin's Am

! Hindostan, Landreth (synonym of

I ler's Prolific, Yuba (s3'non3'm of Diehl
Mediterranean). The following sorts yielded less than
thirty bushels per acre: Rudy, New
Monarch, Roberts, Bailey, Buckeye.
Real, Johnson, Democrat. Early Red
, Clawson, Fulcaster, Willits, Sibley's
New Golden, Badger.
j It has been observed for a number
j of years in the Ohio and Indiana tests
1 that the Velvet Chaff (1'enquiteV) has
' proved more reliable than most other
j sorts on black soiis. In the te t un
1 der consideration the single plot of
this variety yielded at the rate of
' fort3'-five bushels per acre, and this
yield was exceeded by only three sorts
Geneva giving forty-eight bushels.
Valley forty-six bushels and Crate

The Illinois agricultural exp.'ri-
j ment station last season arranped for
' trials of crimson clover in different
j parts of the state. The unusual
I drouth caused failure at the station
' and most other points. Mr. F. Helms,
! Belleville, an intelligent and care
fully observant farmer, makis the fol
lowing report: "I sowed about one
I half acre on 103 farm and one-fourth
acre on my neighbor's, sowiug in Au
I gust. Grasshoppers and drj weather
l ruined the latter entirely last fall.
' and nearly so on 1113' farm. What

well, ripened considerably earlier than
the common red clover, but was not
to tall. In order to test it ou po ,r
soil and hardpan, I gave a little of the
seed to two friends living nbrut ten
miles south of my placi. The seed
was there sown about the middle of
October, after showers had fallen. It
' came up in a ver3' short time. On a
patch where red clover had never
taken the least hold, the crimson did
exceedingly well; had ver3r large, well
filled seed heads. The result was a
complete surprise to the old farmer
; who had lived there more than fifty
vears. On soil like mine and where
' red clover general' does well, I do
not think crimson clover is very valu
able. But it may prove a great boon
to the hardpan or 'marl3 clay' locali
ties." ItHttcriuilk Drin'u-r-i.
"If tho demand for butter milk in

heralded and advertised by signs in

The Patagonians have long been cele
brated for being the tallest race in ex

average stature at seven feet four inches.
Commodore Byron's officers seldom saw

that measure. At tho Polar circles, es
