Note: All parties seek to avoid trivial
complaints. The rule requires the COM
plant to be in writing, in order that the
person may see it in that form, and that
the board may have something definite
before it.
RULE II; Complaint may be presented to
the board at the first meeting after the cause
thereof shall arise, or it will be deemed that
there are no grounds for complaint.
Note: This rule is rigorous, and
might work hardship if the cause of
complaint should arise just before a
meeting. But all parties thought there
should be no delay. If an ''active mem
ber' is discharged, he wants speedy
hearing, and he must use diligent means
to obtain it. 1t is improper to introduce
stale complaints.
An addendum to these notes pro-
vides: eff any difference shall arise
hereafter, touching any matter not pro-
vided for in the foregoing rules, such
difference shall go before the board of
arbitration for adjustment and de-
cision. ''-GeorQe May Powell, in Gen.

PRACTICAL RATlONS.
How "Ork-Horses Can be Fed to Good
Advantage at the Least Cost.

How Work-Horses Can be Fed to Good
Advantage at the Least Cost.
We have an inquiry as to how it is
profitable to feed the heavily-worked
horse, and as to the cheapest effective
ration to use, hay being worth SIG;
corn-meal, SIG; oats, 1922; middlings,
$16; new-process linseed meal, $25 per
| ton; straw and corn fodder, Sc per ton.
Here is a pretty good list to get ra-
tons from. Let US suppose that two of
corn is ground with one of oats, per
weight. Oats being the most expensive
by weight, we will use less of this grain.
In making up ration, particular atten-
ton must be given to proper balance
of constituents. The horse is useful
only for his muscle. and the liberal nour-
ishment of his muscles must be provided
for. Corn-meal is deficient in albumin
oids or heterogeneous matter for the
muscles. 1t is particularly rich in heat
and fat-producing elements, conse-
quently it can be fed in larger
proportion in winter than in summer.
Middlings are less heating than corn
meal, and more muscle-forming. This
food may very properly be used as a
considerable part of the ration for work
horses. Straw may be used to good eff
feet in the work-ration, but there must
be more heterogeneous food to balance it.
If straw only is used as the coarse fod-
der, then there must be sufficient extra
heterogeneous food to make it equal to
hay. Let US see if we can balance the
straw to the standard of hay, and still
cheaper the ration-12 pounds of hay
cost 90 cents, II pounds of oat straw,
SO cents. This makes the difference in
cost cents. The hay has &c of a pound
of digestible albuminoids, and the straw
has only .16 of pound; now, the diff
ference is half pound. Two pounds
of linseed-meal will more than make up
this deficiency, and will cost only 2 IL
cents, leaving balance of 1-2 cents as
a saving on the use of the straw and lin
seed meal.
We will now give a few detailed ra-
tons. giving only the digestible nutri-
ents, as these represent the value of
food.

a BRUTAL CRAZE.
Million of Tuneful Songsters Sacrificed to
the MOloch of Fashion.

Million of Tuneful SongSterS Sacr1nceu TO
the Moloch of Fashion.
This wearing of bird-skins and feath-
ers by women points to shameful waste
and cruelty. Birds on bonnets, birds
in the hair, birds on fans and birds
pinned to flowing skirts, all prove
that our most tuneful songsters and our
most beautiful summer visitors are be-
inc slaughtered with a brutality against
which every tender woman should re-
volt. 1t is stated that London's share
in the traffic alone amounts to millions
and millions, and alone is ten times
greater than the total of specimens in
the archaeological cabinets of civiliza-
ton. Eastern papers say that at Cape
Cod fifty thousand terms. for
example, are shot in one
season, for woman ornaments. We see
stores full of skins The sight ofpretty
cumming birds on female tineryis made
all the more aggravating by the state
ment that those birds must be literally
skinned alire in order to secure the ten
der hides. Little wonder that England,
SO cruel at times, and so tender at 9th
ers. has many societies to check this
barbarous, cruel waste. We hear also
of organized American protests, and of
pledges among women to frown down
this fearful raid on the birds. The craze
is almost as unnatural and sad as if the
flowers and the birds were to combine
to kill all the women on the planet.

HOGS BRISTLES.

The Economic Uses to Which the Hair OF
the American Porker Is Put.
There is wonderful economy shown
TN the disposal made of the American
hogs carcass at the Union Stock Yards.
Every hide, hair, muscle, tendon, iga-
ment and bone goes to some profitable
and practical use. Look, for example,
at the hair product; there's fortune
in it. This branch of the general util-
ity to which the hog is put is monopo-
lied by New York firm. Through
their agent they have contracts with all
the packing-houses and pay them GER
tain sum for the hair product of each
hog slaughtered This averages from
3 to 5 cents during the regular season,
dated from November until April 1.
The price paid this year is 5 cents.
During the summer months the prices
range from 2 to 1-2 cents. The hair
is shorter and less valuable during that
period of the year. A large force of
men is employed in each slaughter
house to attend to this work.
When hog is scalded two men range
themselves on either side of the bench
on which the carcass lies and with
tweezers rapidly pluck out the large
bristles These are carefully packed
in barrel and prepared for shoe
makers use. The hands of the men fly
like lightning in this work, while a keen
ness of vision is absolutely necessary.
Then the scraping machine is brought
into play, and like flash the hog is as
smooth as an egg from snout to tail-tip.
The hair is then carefully and thor
oughly washed, pressed, and forked into
carts and taken to the bayfield,, where
it is spread out like new-mown hay. It
is not quite so aromatic, however. The
firm has two of these plats of ground,
each over one hundred acres in extent,
but the principal one is situated south
west of the yards, and bounded on two
sides by Forty-seventh and Ashland ave-
nue.. The vast triangular tract is level
as a table, and frequently it's entire sur
face is covered by the hirsute overcoat
of the hog. The curing process usu-
ally occupies all of four months.
1t is shaken up and winnewed
constantly until thoroughly dry,
and all the foreign particles have been
shaken off The bristle department re-
quires especial care. The hair is there
packed up in bales and shipped. 1t is
quite lucrative industry, as may be in
ferred from the fact that a few ye rs ago
rival concerns attempted to obtain a
foothold, and competition ran the price
up to fifteen cents per hog. This was
like a railroad rate war-neither could
afford it-and the result was the inter-
lopers went to the wall.
Numerous devices have been invented
in the past few years for the cleansing
and curing of hogs hair, the object be-
ing thoroughness and expedition. None,
however, was satisfactory until patent
was tested short time since, which per-
forms the work of four months in the
miraculous time of four hours. The
The process is both mechanical and
chemical has been thoroughly tried and
proved in every way satisfactory: The
inventor is now negotiating with the
large packing-ho for the introduce
duction of his device, which, if effected,
will enable each to cure his own product
and realize the middleman's profit
