Swoct milk is a very valuable
food for a variety of young ani
mals on the farm. It h most
usually fed to calves and pigs,
but it may be fed with equal
or greater profit to chick
ens., both young mid 'old. On
many farms in summer it is a
difficult matter to keep milk
sweet for more than a few hours,
but for feeding pouhry eour
milk is as Rood, if not Letter,
than real sweet milk. It may
becovne sour and curdled and fed
with as much effect as when ii
is an hour old. It is easily di
gestible and may be substituted
for part of the other food. It is
especially valuable for the young
chicks in summer when they are
growing, as it contains flesh and
bone-forming material, and has
enough water content to proper
ly regulate the digestive organs.
Also being nitrogenous, it i3 a
good food for layine hens, but
it is best to use it as a mixture
with ground grains. Skim milk
for all kinds of chickens is a
comparatively safe food. They
can be given all they will drink,
yet it is not best to let it stand
in drinking vessels where young
chickens have access to it. It
should be fed to young chickens
with more care than old hens.
Women and Cirfiareites.
Shall women smoke in public?
The corporation council of New
York City rules they may under
the law, or rather the lack of
law. Certain hotel proprietors
take the position that if they
wish to smoke it is their privi
lege, for restaurants were made
for women, not women for res
taurants; all of which is gallant
and doubtless profitable. The
position at present seems to be
that while women are not re
strained by law from open and
j public whiffing of cigarettes,
the sentiment of a vast majority
of women is strongly against the
practice. In the long run the
American woman has her sweet
way, whether h? votes or
smokes, and it is a matter that
women must eventually decide
for themselves. In tho final
judgment men mu;.;t stand back
and defer to feminine opinion.
As a matter of taste it may be
