The cost of feeding the dairy COW or
the beef animal in Tennessee will vary
from 10 to 20 cents per day. In one
case we may expect two to three gal
Ions OF milk, worth 20 to rs cents a
gallon, and one and half to two
pounds of butter, worth 20 to rs cents
a pound; while In the other. from one
and half to two and q half pounds Of
beef Will be an approximate gain
These figures should suffice to con-
vince us of the money in these indus
tries. A suitable ration for a dairy
COW would be 30 pounds Of silage. 10
pounds Of cowpea or clover hay. 2
pounds Of corn meal, pounds of cot
ton seed meal, and pounds of bran.
For young growing stock we may
use silage, 20 to 30 pounds; cowpea or
clover hay, 10 pounds; cotton seed
meal, / pound; bran, pound. corn
meal, pounds. Or If the farmer has
oats, these may be substituted for
cotton seed meal 1t may be necessary
to increase the meal ration to six
pounds. depending on the amount of
growth or fat desired and the age OF
the animal. Where silage can not be
had. shredded corn fodder may be sub
stituted.
For beef production the following ra-
ton Will answer when the animals are
to be put on the market within four
months, and where winter feeding ia
pursued: Silage, 30 pounds; cowpea or
clover hay,l to is pounds; corn meal.
6 to 8 pounds; cotton seed rueaI. 2 to 4
pounds. Oats and bran may be SUBJ

food stuffs are cheaper and are at

The parasite that causes this disease
the flesh of several animals, especially
the hog. From the hog 1t Is sometimes
transferred to man, causing severe
sickness and not infrequently death.
Trichina Is found In pork both In
America and Europe. and its presence
has been made pretext by which
some foreign nations keep out Ameri-
can pork. Most OF the pork inspection
at the Union Stock Yards, Chicago, is
due to the prominence OF this Ques-
ton in the European mind. However.
German pork is as much infested with
trichlna as our own. and 1t is believed
a little more so.
Trichina inhabits the bodies OF ami
mails at all stages of its existence. and
where swine are entirely unable to
get anything but vegetable diet the
danger that they will become infested
with trichina Is small. For this reason
1t is not safe to permit swine to feed
on the offal OF slaughter houses, car
rion, rats. mice and the like. Hogs
so fed become a menace to the health
of the eaters of the pork they produce.
The trichina Is very small. and lives
IN minute crysts in the muscles. When
these cysts are eaten by hogs the
juices OF the stomach set loose the
imprisoned tricbinae which escape into
the intestines where they pair and
the females bring forth a numerous
brood OF larvae, which find their way
to the muscles. where they in turn be-
come encysted. The hog himself does
not appear to suffer from the presence
OF these parasites. and they can there
fore be discovered only by a micro
scopic examination of the pork. 1t is
said that no remedy has been discov-
cred that will destroy the trichlnae
after they have become encysted in the
muscles When pork infested with
trichinae Ia eaten by man the thou
sands OF cysts are operated on by the
juices OF his stomach. The parasites
are let loose and proceed to his in
testines where they pair and breed.
Their progeny begin a march through
the walls of his intestines to his
muscles, and induce symptoms similar
to typhoid fever. II the man can en-
dure the horrible pain OF the migration
OF the parasites from his intestines 20
his muscles he will live. The trichinae
will form cysts there and give no fur
Their trouble, but will remain with him
through the rest OF his life.

SENSATIONAL TESTIMONY.
Given by w. III. Culton in His Appeal
To BE Released on Bail.

FRANKFORT, KY, May Wv. H.
Culton, the clerk of Auditor of State
Sweeny, who is under indictment as
accessory to the murder of Goebel,
went on the witness stand in his own
behalf in the hearing of the motion for
bail in his case this afternoon and gave
some sensational testimony. Culton's
testimony followed after the motions
for bail in the cases of Powers, Davis,
Youtsey, Whitaker and Combs had
been oyerruled. They offered no evil
dence in support of their motions for
bail. Judge Cantrill held that as the
indictment charged capital offense
the defendants were not entitled to
bail. An order was entered transfer
ring the prosecutions against them to
Georgetown for trial On a charge of
venue.
Culton said he had never conspired
with any of the defendants or any one
else to kill Goebel. He did not know
Golden and had known Whitaker only
since the assassination. Culton said
w. R. Johnson wanted to borrow his
(Cultons) pistol.
Henry Youtsey told me that Goebel
would be killed. l told him that it
must not be done. l told Governor
Bradley what Youtsey said and Brad
ley said: My God, this must not be
done Youtsey afterward said there
was nothing in it.
Henry Youtsey, after the assassin
alton, asked me where | was on the
day of the murder. l told him that |
was up in the House lobby Youtsey
asked me how it would do for him TO
say he was there with me. | told Yout-
sey / was afraid he was going to get
into trouble, also that Grant Roberts
wanted to see him. Roberts had
missed his rife and told me that he
believed Youtsey had it. | told him
he had better see Roberts
The witness told of another CONVEX
sation with Youtsey. who came with
Burton, of Breckenridge county.
''Youtsey said he had the greatest
scheme yet; that GoebeI could be shot
from the Secretary of States Office and
nobody would ever know who did it,
Witness denied that he had a con-
versation with Miss Sallie Jackson in
which he made statements damaging
to himself. At meeting in Powers
Office presided and the question of
providing boarding places for contest
witnesses was discussed. B. B. Burton

to party enthusiasm. The twelve hun
dred plates laid in preparation for the
fourth annual banquet, or dollar din
ner,' OF the Mohawk Democratic Club
were quite inadequate to the number
of men and women who held dinner
tickets. Consequently the tables in the
rear of the auditorium were served q
second time. The galleries We're also
well filled with spectators.
o. W. Gleason, president of the Mo-
hawk club. presided; Hon. Thomas E.
Barkworth, of Jackson, was the toast
master, and Detroit's Democratic may
or, Hon. VIM. C. Maybury, welcomed
the Mohawk guests.

signed the first speaker. Hon. James

Congressman VIM. Sulzer, of New
York, responded to Imperative Is

received seemed almost boundless in
enthusiasm.
Other speakers were Hon. George P.
