T!.e results of ;h"s work nheul .1 be of interest and prof-t to farmers cf the state who Hap pen to live on soils whicli are not in jured by the winter trampling of live stock. Many farmers have held to the idea that to get the best results ex pensive barns and bheds must be .rc-ted when steers are be fat tened. In fact, no email amount of mrrcy has been spent hi ";e state in ficaliy for fattening purposes. T;.;3 money lias large, y been thro""n '."ay so far as thoee parts of the -.date are concerned where sandy soils exist. The work has shown consis tently that shelter is a cetr;.iaent rather than an advantage. Kr. Gray, chief of 1T.3 an.'mal in iustry division, says, in regard to this matter: "Last winter at the i'ondev test farm two lots of cattle vcre fe:l from October 10 to March 11. One lot of steers was fed under shel ter v.hiie the other was in the open ilh no shciter at ail, not even trees, i V.O'-.h of the j-t.cv.i which were ccm i'i'vtr.bly sheltered gained during the ...hove per c d of time lC;j.G pounds at a ccet of v 12. -lo for acTi i:0 pounds hierear.e in live weight.

It'shouid be not ed, aleo, in feeding in the open in this way that the hauling of manure is eliminated, that the expense of build ing burns and sheds is obviated, end , also that much labor is conserved." ftlL hull Red Cross seals may Toe purchased frern any of the drug stores and from young ladies v. ho will call on the bus-, iiiess men, Mrs. J.

A bill restricting and jogulaling the sale of liquor has been prepared by a gov ernment committee, and as it has the support of tv.o-fiords of the members of the newly elected Norwegian par 1 c ment, it will soon be enacted into law. Total prohibition has been reiecte 1 by the committee as impossible to on- iorce, and cletr.mental to real tem perance. But it is felt that the sale of strong liquors should, be strictly con trolled. Beer containing less than three per cent of alcohol is regarded not only as a harmless but a bene f'cial drink. Light wines will also be favored.
