Rice Ineal is used quite. extesively

to make a test of it.
The results of feeding rice meal
with milk to pigs are given iii bullet in

sum11mary.
Wlien fed with skim milk rice meal
has a feeding value equal to that of
colil meal.

rHITE/WASII FOR FARM BUILD.
INGS.
Nothing adds so iuch to the ap
earance of farm buildings as bright
A unchanging colors. It costs a
rent deal to keep houses aud barns
itinted, but it is well worth the
ioney, not merely because of the in
reased durability, but because of the
nproved appearance. Nothing spells
rosperity in such fair letters, written
trge, as well piinted farm buildings.
Paint, however, is dear, and for a
>ng time laimers who desire to keep
ilng firfst-class shape have been
)oking for a cheap paint or a white
rash that will stand the weather and
.ot become instfad (if a clear white
dirty drab in a few weeks or months..
,he United States government has
cen looking after this, as it does
fter alhnost everything touching farm
ire, and has.hlt upon a whitewash for its
ight houses witich shortld stand rough
:On(litiois~. We give the receipt as fol
ows:
"'Take a half bushel of unslacked
ime, slack it with boiling water, cover
luring the process to keep in steam,
itrain the liquid through a fine sieve or
trainer, an(a add to it a peck of salt,
reviously dissolved inl warm water;
liree pouids of ground rice boiled to
r thin lpaste- and stirred in while hot;
ialf a pound Spanish whiting and 110
)ound of gitie, previously dissolved by
loaking in cold water, and thenr hang
Jig over the fire in a smiall pot hung in
x larger one filled with water, add five
gallons of hot water to the mixture,
stir well.and let it stand a few days
uovered from dirt. It should be ap
plied hot, for which purpose it can be
kept inl a portable furnace."
There is nothing in the above that is
not within the reach of every reader.
lie can buy the .unaterial, except )ossi)
ly the ground rice, and lie can buy that
aid have it ground in the coffee mill ir
with his own farm mill, can do all tire
mixing, and apply it, and having ap
plied .it to -one building lie can soon
determine ivhethier he wants to, go
;round the farm and make his farmr
the envy of all observers.
lThe past end of t le President's
house in Washington is eimnlellishet
with thii3wltewash, and if it is good
enoug~lior'the White House it is good
enough for. anybody else's house, or
barn. A pint of this mixture will
cover a rqiiue.yard and is said to be
almost as se:yiceable as paint for wood,
brick or stoige, and there is .no paint
known that., will equal it in cheapness.
