With the lint simply thrown in as a by
product. Vv hen we consider the won
derful nutritive value of cottonseed
meal and hulls, after the oil, another
byproduct, has been extracted from
them, and the further fact that this
rich, nutritious food may be passed
through the domestic animals, giving
them ii;e, growth and development,
au, i - vef that process lose only about
10 per cent of the rich fertibzing con-
Sii-.uouts touu.i in rhe original food,
and yielding a manure of the very best
quality, it does seem as though nature
uad been too lavish and generous in her
gi ts io us of the south.
We have been slow to realize the im
portance of tuo “talent which we have
buried, 1 cut the day is breaking, ana
ere long we shail, by developing the va
rious products of this wonderful plant,
become the richest people in the world,
and by consequence the center of civili
zation, refinement and the arts. I have
thus digressed from the technical de
tails we have been discussing for the
purpo-ie of impressing more strongly
upon you their importance. In my next
letter, w th the aid of another ruble and
some explanations, I hope to be able to
show you how to calculate for yourself

there riven of th- various terms, which
are csea m u: atvive table ot analyses,

hair, tendons and even part of the
tones aiso the office of the carbohy
drates and the far p: oriuemg fat. in the
b -dy, keeping up its heat and produc
ing mrcehor energy. You will then
better understand the table just given.
Tins is a short tab.e selected irom nu
merous analyses, as containing the ma
terials most likely to be met with on
the average southern farm and used for
the feeding oi stock.
The above table does not give the
complete analysis of the feeding stuffs
mentioned, but gives the digestible
matter n 100 pounds of each feed. For
instance, the complete analysis of cot
tonseed meal is as follows: Water 8.2
percent, ash 7.2 per cent, protein 42.3
percent, carbohydrates 29.2 per cent,
fat J3 1 per cent, or totai 100 per cent.
By referring to the table, however, you
will see that about five pounds of the
protein is indigestible and about
13 ponnds of the carbohydrates
are also indigestible. The figures in
the abovd table have been obtained by
careful feeding experiments, and are
the result of much painstaking, careful,
conscientious work, aud are therefore
very valuable as being practical in the
best sense. Only that part of the food
is of value to the animal which passes
into the circulation, after being acted
on by the fluids of the stomach and in
testines, aud being taken up by the
blood goes to repair the waste of the
tody, to make new flesh, to and fat, or
to serve as a source of energy or work.
In preparing these tables of digesti
ble matter the experimenters careiuily
veigued the animals at the beginning
of each experiment, carefully analyzed
the rations fed to ihem, carefully saved
every drop of liquid a.nd solid of the
dung and urine and analyzed them,
and then by studiously comparing all
f he results, calculated the indigestible
matter in 100 pounds of each feed stuff
aud these percentages they called the
‘‘digestion coefficients.” Such tables
as these are the basis of scientific feed
ing. Little as you may thiuk of it this
subject is of the utmost practical iui-
portau e. not only to the agricultural
community, but to the general prosper
ity of the nation.
The experience of the past decade has
demonstrated, and I hope conclusively
to our farmers at least, that the day has
passed when their exclusive attention
can bo devoted to the production of one
crop, aud that crop, one which is noi
essential to the life of man;- at least in
the way in which it is at present han
dled, it is only conducive to the com
fort of the human family as raiment,
but it can be so handled as to minister,
not only to their comfort, but to the de-
v e!opment and sustenance of iife itself.
To explain my meaning in as few words
as possible, is this, that we have been
raising cotton for the sake of its fiber,
to be spun into cloth, when we should
have been raising it for the sake of its
precious seed, born into the world in a
manner befi.tting.its royal origin as the
son of King Cotton, swaddled and en
circled in the downiest fur and not na

princelings. It does seem as if this
j-aious care of Mother Nature should
have made us recognize earlier the great

you can grow these food products
cheaper, therefore you can raise cattle
and fatten for the market at less cost
than the western farmer, provided von

weigh 800 pounds. A well bred short
horn will weigh at same age 1,500
pounds. The cost of keep will be the
same. The former will bring on the
market about 4 cents while the latter
will sell for 5 cents, not to speak of the
great disparity in weight. You ask

USEFUL SHEEP RACK,
Designed to Prevent Waste During
Winter Feeding.
In regard to this useful sheep rack,
originally illustrated in the Michigan
Farmer, the writer, who furnished the
sketch, is quoted thus: From many
years' experience I consider sheep of all
the domestic animals the hardest to
feed through the winter mouths with
out waste.
For many years I used the- old fash
ioned slat box rack that almost every
farmer has seen. I found it objection-

The honey extractor is one of the
principal sources of profit in connec

This machine extracts the liquid from
the combs and leaves the comb as
clear of injury as before taken from the
hive. In tlie accompanying illustration

What Mr. Sawtell has done with his

in Georgia under similar circumstances.
There is good money in buying aud feed
ing cattle for market-, but what is bet
ter raise your own cattle aud feed them
on your own grass and cottonseed meal
ana Bulls raised on your own farm, and
when you seil off only the fattened cat
tle, the manufactured article, you leave
on the farm all the feed stuff consumed
by the cattle to enrich the land to make
more feed to fatten more cattle, to make
more profit for the wife and babies. Da
this, and instead of barren and bleak
lauds of the home weighted down by
mortgage, we will see a home of plenty,
happiness and contentment. There is
uo reason why stock raising in the
south, and especially Georgia, should
not be profitable. We have short win

afford good pasturage for 10 months of

The Bermuda grass of the south is
equal to the Timothy of the northwest.
The peavine hay, properly cured, is one
of the best of all the forage plants and
admirably adapted to our climate and
soil, so abundant in nitrogenous matter
aud other elements of plant food, that
almost any crop will do well to follow
the cow peas.
Georgia is then the distinctive home
of the Bermuda and the cow pea. They

soil in the state with but little cultiva-

In London.
London, Feb. 21. — The war office de
clares it is unable to substantiate the
reports of the relief of Ladysmith. Bat
this doss not prevent the public from
believing the queen has again fore
stalled the authorities at Pall Mall ana
preferred to communicate the glad news
direct to the public through the mayor
of Windsor, just as yesterday she dra
matically announced, through Lord
William Cecil, commander of a militia
corps, tidings of General Buffer’s suc
cess hours before the war office was
able to relieve the impatient anxiety of
-he United Kingdom.
Nevertheless as the queen’s wordsare
not actually quoted in today’s an
nouncement official confirmation is
eagerly awaited, especially as General
Buffer’s dispatch of yesterday is very
generally regarded as foreshadowing a
junction of his and General White’s
forces some time today. Public inter
est and anxiety therefore, sway unceas
ingly and impatiently between Lady
smith and Bloemfontien.
The practical relief of the former
place is regarded as due more to Field
Marshal Lord Roberts’ brilliant strat
egy in dawing off the Boers than to
General Buffer’s numerous assaults,
aud news of the results of the battle be
tween General Kttcnener and General
Cronje, reinforced by the forces rhus
drawn off' fri in Ladysmith, is expected
to almost synchronize with the an
nouncement that General Buffer has
reached his objective.
“The accomplishment of the latter
event, however, is regarded with greater
confidence than is tue ability o: Gen
eral Kitchener to thoroughly cripple
General Cronje, for the Boers’ general
has proved himself so clever aud daring
in sapping tlirough the British lines
that, oven if Lord Roberts quickly occu
pied Bloeinroniein, mere are many iears
expressed that General Cronje might
still preserve the effectiveness of his
mobile forces.
The war office this afternoon an
nounced that it had uo news irom other
sources, fihere is yet nothing to throw
light oa the mam issues. Regarding
the military conditions, the military
critics in the afternoon newspapers ex
press the keenest satisfaction at the
phase of the campaign, as revealed by
the ia:est news, drawtng attention to
the fact that whether or not Lord Rob
erts succeeds in inflicting a decisive ae
ieat, he has forced the Boers to release
their grip on Ladysmith, Kimberley,
Zululand and Lower Natal, though ad-
mittiug that rhe sioge of Mafekmg may
be made nitre severe by the arrival of a
pi rtion of the Boer force driven off
irom Kimberley, endeavoring to avenge
itself on Colonel Baden-Pov- eil.

Further details of the attack made by

straggling up the hill in the dark,
through a net of barbed wire, they
alarmed the Boer watch dog3, who gave
the alarm. The Boer3 opened fire and

This worked very well for some time,
but at last tbe sheep grew cunning,
and ‘if left open enough so they could
reach it at all they would still pull tbe

trouble with tbe patent rack is tliere is

far to be a great success. The bay is
simply thrown on top of tbe two large

Will Bees Freeze In Winter?
Discussing the question “Will Bees
Freeze In Winter?” in the light of last
year’s experiences, A. H. Duff has said
in substance in Farm, Field and Fire
side: Bees that are in proper condition
in tbe hives will not freeze, otherwise
they will. If a colony of bees have
ample stores of honey and the honey
so situated that they can partake of it
as they need it, they will not freeze.
Hungry bees will freeze, and losses
largely occur from starvation. Bees
starve with plenty of honey in tbe
hive. This is true from the fact that
during a long spell of continued cold
weather owing to the intense cold the
cluster of bees in the hive is unable to
expand in tbe least, to move sidewise
but a few inches, to where the honey is
located. Tims they starve and then
freeze with plenty of food in sight.
A good winter hive for bees is a long
deep one that admits of all tbe surplus
honey being stored directly.above the
bees, and a hive of this kind will win
ter bees without freezing from the fact
that the bees have access to tbe honey
at all times, for the heat of the cluster
naturally rising upward the .bees can
ascend wffb it and thus readily reach
the honey directly above them. To
remedy this defect of the modern hive,
which is shallow, the chaff hive is
brought into use. By thus placing
heavy packing around the bees their
natural heat is retained to such extent
that only in very severe cold weather
are they unable to reach their stores.

Square Tipped Billiard Cues.
The Philadelphia Record says a bil
liard cue with a square tip instead of
a round one is an innovation that may
shortly be put to a practical test. A
well known amateur of Philadelphia,
who is of an experimental and invent
ive turn of mind, conceived the idea
and had a special cue made with a
square tip. He says it answers every
purpose to which the ordinary cue
can be put, in addition to which it lias
a number of advantages over the round
tip. For one thjng, it is impossible to
make a miscue. The full surface of
the cue strikes the bail and gives it
more purchase. The point of contact
between the rounded tip and tiie ball
is perhaps one-tenth less than that of
the square tip and the ball, and where
- “English” is used the latter tip as
sures a much greater control. The in
ventor of the square tip lias applied
for a patent and hopes to introduce it
through the medium of several well
known professional players.
