Feeding Corn.

There are a great many farmers in
the west who keep poultry and who
feed habitually on corn. This is partly
because it is almost always on hand,
partly because they have great conf
dence in that very valuable cereal as
feed stuff, and partly because it is
cheap. From some one or all of these
reasons, corn is fed to a much greater
extent to poultry in the west than it
should be. Two of these reasons do
not exist this season. Corn is rot
plentiful, and, as compared with other
feed stuffs, it is not cheap. Two-thirds
of the temptation to feed il have,
therefore, temporarily disappeared.
If those of our readers who are in the
habit of feeding corn will just put by
their prejudices in its favor, FOR with
respect to this particular kind of feed
ing, it is prejudice, and try some
more heterogeneous feed stuff some less
heating feed and less fattening, we
undertake to say that they Will not
again return to corn as regular feed
for poultry, even when it becomes as
plentiful and as cheap as is its normal
condition. The most successful poul-
trymen for egg production do not uGc
much corn. The egg consists of about
sixty-four parts of water, fifteen parts
dry albumen, eleven parts oil and salts
and ten parts she'll and mineral matter.
Manifestly feed consisting of eight
and one-third parts albumen, sixty
five parts carbohydrates and four and
three-fourths part fat is not a suitable
food with which to manufacture
such product as the egg. More nitrog-
enous, that is to say, more albumi-
nous, feeding is requisite, with less and
very considerable less carbohydrates
or starch food, except in very cold
weather, when the carbon is needed to
keep up the animal heat and the vital
processes. A very carbonaceous food,
too, like corn, interferes with the sat
isfactory development of both frame
and feathers. The bones of poultry
habitually fed on it lose both density
and strength, and hence, those that
are fed much corn, even though they
may not suffer specifically in health,
become sluggish, and deposit large
masse of fat on the internal organs
According to Prof. Roberts of Cornell
university, "the flesh of a heterogeneous
fed fowl contains more albuminoids
and less fat than those fed on a car
bonaceous ration; is darker color, juicier
and tenderer." From every standpoint,
therefore, except only the night feed
in extremely cold weather, and the
final finish for the table, corn should
be abandoned as a leading feed, and
more heterogeneous grains substituted

INGALLS, TOOK DRINK

OF Cold Water Out of Pump in North
Topeka.
Senator ingalls, passed through Tope-

He came in on the Union Pacific from

Mr.. Ingalls, always patronizes the
pump in the freight room of the depot.
The agent, Mr.. Gerteisen, says Mr.. In
gals is extremely fond of that water,
which is very cold. and Mr.. Ingalls, him
self verified the statement Saturday af-
ternooD, as he swallowed deep draughts
of it and said, "That is a good enough
drink for anybody"
And he looked as if he meant it was
even good enough for the heir presumpt-

An Outbreak of 1t at the Reform School
Causes Quarantine.
The state reform school for boys with
over 200 inmates was placed under quar-
antine restrictions yesterday afternoon
by DR.. L A. Ryder the attending physi-
clan.
The general health of the reform
school is said to be good, but one case of
diphtheria was discovered yesterday.
DR.. Ryder WAS called to see Arthur
Workman a boy about fourteen years old
and found him sick with diphtheria.
The entire school was placed under
quarantine and the school did not as is
customary participate in the funeral ex-
srcises of David Dsnman the runaway
boy who was killed by the cars, and who
was buried yesterday.
One case of typhoid fever was re-
ported to the secretary of the state board
of health from the reform school last
week but the officers reported that the
boy was sick when he arrived at the
school and he was kept isolated.

WOODEN MILL SOLD.
j. G. Freshman, Lumber Dealer
Buys It for SO, 100.
NOT KNOWN WHAT he WILL d

With the Building Now That He Has
It-NO Other Bidders Worthy OF
Mention.
The Oakland wooden mill was sold this
morning to ]. G. Fleishman. the heaviest
lien holder for So, 100 which is the amount
of the liens on the building. Mr.. Flesh
man says that he bought the building as
trustee for the lien holders but he has
secured an assignment of many of the
claims and as he is a creditor himself to
the amount of about $4,000 he may be
said to be the purchaser of the property.
Mr., Fleishman says that he has not
made up his mind what he will do with
the building. 1t is we'll known that he
is able to fit it up and operate it as
wooden mill without any assistance from
any one, but it is also known that Mr.
Fleishman has attempted to interest
others with him in the enterprise.
Whether he succeeded or not is not
known.
A man who said he knew what he was
talking about says that Mr.. Fleishman
expects that the property will be re-
deemed and that he will only hold it to
protect himself He may rent it, how
ever, but he does not contemplate oper-
ating it as a WOODEN mill himself.
Mr.. Appleyard was present at the sale
but he was only impassive spectator
and he made no effort to bid. Edward
Brigha was also present but he did not
bid None of the members of the wooden
mill company were at the sale and the
only bid besides that of Mr.. Fleishman
was made by E. D. McKeever as at
tOrney for some of the smaller lein hold
ers. His bid was 800 which was
promptly raised to $4,000 by Mr.. Fleish.

The talk about people from Independ-
ence, Mo. buying the property proved &c

crowd of about 100 sports who witnessed

was given a cordial greeting, as was Du-
pont, who shortly followed him. Both
men were too fat for fast work, and
Fisher particularly so. He was also handi-
capped by height and reach, and it was
soon evident that he was overmatched
There was little science displayed, Du-
pont winning all three bouts by main
strength. In each bout. after forcing
Fisher to the mat, he would simply get a
leg and arm lock and slowly force Fish
er's shoulders to the floor.
Fisher struggled manfully against the
superior strength of his opponent. and
was completely exhausted at the finish.
He did some very clever bridging and
fast rolling during the floor work, but
Dupont stuck to him with bulldog tenac-
ity. and would have won much easier
had it not been impossible to get a hold
on account of the excessive perspiration
of Fisher. Dupont won the falls in 1919,

Whitfield refereed the bout, and Dave

Mr. Lawson is the head, protesting
against the granting of concession for
the sale of cheap whisky in the negro

Lawson asserts that what Mr.. johnson
said IN regard to the matter was entirely
of his own volition; that the local com
mission has taken no action in the mat
ter, and in fact has not been notified that
liquor would be sold in the negro build
ing. The chief commissioner says that
he individually is opposed to the sale of
liquor in the place referred to. and so
are the other members of the commits
sion with whom he has talked on the
subject, but as already stated, no action
has been taken by the local officers here.
