1t will be noticed that during the exneri
ment proper and subsequently, the cost of
the food consumed by the lambs in LOT a
was considerably in excess of the cost of
food for the lambs in any of the other Iors
This was owing to the dearer prices. relative
ly, of the oats, which made up so large n
portion of the grain fed, and also to the
dear price of the oil cake, which was fed
most freely to the lambs in this lot The
gains secured were somewhat ahead of those
made by the lambs in any of the other
lots, as is shown below. But the greater
relative cost of the food fed far more than
counterbalanced the greater increase made
In weight; hence, considerably less profit
was made the lambs in this lot.
The cost of food was considerably less for
the lambs in lot 3 than for any of the
other lots. and yet, shown below the least
profit was made from them. This arose from
the smaller amount, relatively, of the grain
food consumed, and from its failure to pro-
duce sufficient gains. This fact would seem
to emphasize the close relation between a
free consumption of food during the fatten-
ing period and good gains. The only reason
able explanation that can be given for the
low consumption of food by these lambs as
compared with the lambs In lot is the
absence of oil cake in their ration In other
respects the foods fed were similar, except
that more bran was fed to the lambs in lot
3. More bran in the ration, therefore, would
not seem to atone for the entire absence of oil
cake.

the gains per month made by the lambs IN
lot 2 would be changed from S.5 10 80
pounds. On this basis the average increase
per month made by each lamb under expert

not extrao, dinary gains, but in the absence
of field roots in the ration, they are good

that much of the sickness in his COM

When IL became obvious, by the sudden
close of hosti,ities. that the demands on
the treasury would not reach che magni-
tude for which PROVISION had prudently
been made. the secretary determined to
deposit large share of the proceeds of

parts of the country. BY this process the
funds. while al all times available for the
use of the government, remained in the
channels of trade. The balance standing
TO the credit of the treasurer on this ac-
count on OCT 81 was S65.75l.909. The result
of these methods of dealing with the sit

that the money markets have been in no

DOESN'T LIKE ITS NEW DUTY.
SUPREME COURT NOT ANXIOUS TO
EXAMINE AsPIRANTS TO BAR.

The SIatOn Law of Last Sessions
Making Has Never Been Carried
Into Effect Because of "a Lack OF
Funds-EXnminRtIOn Scheduled
to Take Place on Dec. Fl Not Like
ly to Occur Unless the Legislature
Takes Action.
Atlanta, Ga, Nov. 3.--Since the first day
of last August there has been no one ad-
mitted into the ranks of the legal profess
sion in this state. and unless the legisla-
ture at its present session takes some &C
ton on the subject. admissions to the
bar will be indefinitely stopped.
This situation is the result of the slaton
law, passed at the last session. 1t has de-
veloped that the Supreme Court. upon
which the new law puts the duty of pro-
viding the examinations of applicants, is
ayerse TO the performance of this addi-
tional labor. The minutes of the court
show a formal demurrer on the part of
the justices.
Chief Justice Simmons takes the position
that the constitution has the right to
impose this duty on the court without VIC
lating the constitution, and Associate JUS
tice Little only agreed TO assist in the
work after placing a special note of his
views, which are the same as those Of the
chief justice on the minutes.
But the dissatisfaction in the Supreme
Court is not the only trouble The law re-
CURED certain printing and other work to
be done, but made no appropriation for do
ing the work Clerk Harrison of the court
brought the matter to the attention of
Gov Atkinson some time ago, but he
declined 20 meet the necessary expenses
of the contingent funds unless the Su-
preme Court should make a formal re-
quest upon him. This time the court de-
cined TO do so. There is no money with
which to conduct the examinations, which
are scheduled for Dec. q, next. There is
still time 20 hold the examinations If the
funds necessary TO print the rules and
the questions should be provided, but il Is
not likely that the court will make any
request upon the new Governor, because
the court is averse TO having this work
piled upon it anyhow.
AS there is no other way for the exami-
nation of applicants for admission to the
Georgia bar, 1t looks like something VIII
have to be done by the legislature or the
ambitious disciples of Blackstone through
out the state will be indefinitely shut out
of the profession.
