COTTON SEED MEALS.
Practical Feeders Diner Greatly IN
the Estimate of Their Value
as "a stock Food.

Much has been said and written rela-
tive to the use of cotton seed meal as .
cattle food. Nearly all investigators
agree in giving il high value and urge
dairymen TO use this material not only
because II is cheap source OF protein
but because it also has n high manurial
value Practical farmers differ greatly
In their estimates of cotton seed meal.
Some seem TO use ii very satisfactorily
for awhile and later conclude that the
feed is not well adapted for their pur-
poses. Occasionally n feeder observes
that the health OF the animals Is af-
fected by the feeding of cotton seed too
freely and il sometimes happens that
even after animals have been fed for
months with apparent success that they
are injured by its continued use. 1t
has also happened that cows fed upon
cotton seed meal do well for time and
that later the milk flow is diminished
without apparent cause. There are at
present no other concentrated feeding
stuffs which vary so much in compost
ton as cotton seed meals from different
sources and different mills. Within
three weeks the station has examined
samples varying from 22 per cent, to
over 80 per cent. Of protein.
This greater variation in different
lots of cotton seed meal may explain
the different estimates of different
practical feeders and of the same feed
ers at different times. If COW Is fed
cotton seed meal containing 81 per
cent protein and is then fed an equal
weight Of meal containing SO per cent.
IL Is evident that the amount Of pro-
TEN which she receives will have been
doubled by the change. If she has been
fed up to her full capacity in the first
instance such an increase must result
disastrously. On the Their hand, chang
ing from cotton seed OF high protein
content would diminish the milk fow

Feeding Salt with Fodder.

1t is difficult to feed cut cornfodder
so ms to have it all eaten, and the diff
Guilty is increased if there are nubbins
of corn in the cut fodder to scatter
grains through it. Cattle and horses
will nose this over to get the grains
of corn, and when the fodder has been
thus nosed over only the small, fine
pieces will be eaten. The better way
is to grind the nubbns, corn and cob
together, and apply this to the fodder
after it has been moistened by steam.
In this way most Of the cut fodder will
be eaten, and what is left can be made
more palatable by sprinkling more meal
on II and adding some salt. BY feed
ing salt with unpalatable fodder great
deal of nutrition may be secures from
what would otherwise he wasted

The Hens Egg ana Sex.

Periodically and frequently goes
around the report that eggs wrinkled
at the narrow ends produce cockerels.
says the Country World. To the stu
dent Of embryology this fallacy is at
once apparent For the first few days
the chicken is sexual, and then to bout
the seventh day it is distinctly hernia
phrodite and contains within itself the
element of both sexes. After this stage
it verges in one direction, one set of
organs developing and the other dimin-
ishing, according as to whether the
germ is going to produce male or a
female. So that IL the germ had liv-
ing conscience, It would not know at
the sixth day which sex it would ulti-
mately be.

A farewell party is to be given at the Opera House this evening to Fred A. Sutter, Edwin A. Hughes and Sydney R. Brown who will leave tomorrow evening for Fairbault, Minnesota, where they will atte-d the Shattuck school. Sutter and Hughes are returning to their work while Brown will enter as a new student. The boys did remarkably we'll last year and Bisbee is proud of them. The following, which is taken from the Shattuck Cadet, is much to their credit:
 .-"The two representatives from Bisbee, Arizona, certainly did themselves proud and are an oratorical credit to that town. MT. Frederick Sutter on his selection from "Quo Vadis" held the audience perfectly spellbound for time, and perhaps had the best selection of all in the competition for the first hon. .ors which he received. MT. Edwin HN hes received the second honors, and chose for his oration Abraham Lin- coln." Dr. A. c. Rogers, Rev. Wm, P. Ten Broeck and Rev. A. A. Butler, probably had considerable difficulty in deciding which of the two young men should receive the gold medal, as they both spoke remarkably we'll and with great expression"

 During,a heavy storm at Nogales Monday in which many houses were flooded, ah old woman living at Ran chita was drowned in her own house. She was stranger, says the Oasis, and had been in town but short time. She was quite III and lay on pallet on the floor. In the excitement due to the flood, everyone in the vicinity was occu- pied with their own affairs and no one thought of the poor old woman. After the water had subsided some one went to her house to see,how she was farng and found he rdrowned. The water had poured into her house to depth of a couple of feet, and in her feeble condi, ton she was unable to arise and get away, sc she was literally drowned in her bed. Her name was unknown.
 Col. McCord is quoted as saying that while he has no doubt of the correctness of the news that hls regiment is to be disbanded, he has no official information to that effect. The news was received with enthusiasm by the gallant volnn- teers at Whipple, who all ihlisted to fight and have no desire to become peace soldiers and form part of the standing army. A large percentage of these vol unteers quit good and paying positions to fight under the stars and stripes, and now that there is to be no more fighting, are naturally anxious to return to those walks of life where thier energies and abilities will have better field than regular army life affords in time of peace.

The fall was the heaviest to the north, and soon Brewery Gulch was raging torrent, raising to the highest pont known for years. The main canyon also had considerable water running in it, but not as high as it has been before this season. No material damage was done by the storm. The railroad tracks in the rear of the library building were covered with mud and sand. which took several hours to remove ttaa:s morning. The rain continued throughout the night at intervals.
