Our regiment left the States for the
Philippines on Nqv. 20th, via New
York, the Snt z Canal throngh the Red
Sea,along the shores of the Holy Land.
Sailed into Manila Bay on .Tan. 4th, and
went ashore on the (it.li. Since that
time we have been stationed at several
different places, and never stay at one
place over one month—sometimes not
half so long. When wc move, our
kitchen stuff and provisions are cai ried
on a hull train, which is composed of
carts made of bamboo and block
wheels made of mahogany blocks,
drawn by water buffaloes. We hylce it
(walk) ourselvee.
We are now stationed at Santa Rita,
86 miles north of Manila, 8 from the
mountains and three miles front the
swamps, in the province of Pompango
—a town of 9000 inhabitants, a town
which Gen. Joe Wheeler took and gave
the name of being tbe tonghest town
on the Lnzon Island. We have not
had very much trouble with the natives.
We have killed only two and captnred
about fifty since we have been at this
place. The war is over, the fighting is
done, and we are waiting orders to go
home. Think I will come back before
winter. Wo can’t star J too soon to suit
the boys of onr Company, tlTough we
are having a nice time eating water
melons, bananas and cocoanuts.

DAIRY COW VS. THE STEER.
A. Comparative Statement of Their
Productive Value and Cost.
We have in some of our recent month
ly talks urged the importance of keep
ing" more and better grades of cattle on
the farms of Georgia, with special direct
ness to beef cattle.
Bnt our state is about as well adapted
to the dairying interests as to beef cat
tle. The dairy cow has come to stay
and every year she grows in favor. We
need education along these lines to at
tain the highest success, as it takes
more watchful care and intelligent re
search for a young farmer to raise a
pound of good creamery butter than a
pound of cotton.
From a late bulletin issued from the
experiment station of the University of
Tennessee we glean the following inter
esting facts as shown byUctual experi-
ments.
One reason why dairying is bound to
come mere and more into favor is he-

The singing convention at Mobley’s

The cow’s milk contains over 1 per
cent more solids than in the 2 pounds
gain of the steer. The cow has produced
94 per cent, of sugar against fife steer’s
nothing, five and one-third times as
pinch protein and over half as much fat,
and if the sugar is reduced to its fat
.equivalent, nearly as much fat as the
steer. Practically ail of tbe constituents
of milk are digestible and it constitutes
iiie best and most nourishing of foods.
It is thus apparent that the cow is by far
the most economical machine f° r the
condensing and manufacture of onr
course fodders and grains into cheap
fOod products.
In an experiment conducted at the
Ontario Agricultural pollege one of the
group of steers fed on a ration of 53.50
pounds of ensilage and 9.64 pounds of
piixed meal for 150 days gave the follow
ing financial results;
