Fed His Cattle Elm Leaves.

Macon, Mo-, Aug. 23.-Robert
M. Graves, an extensive farmer Of
southern Macon county, was in
town today and told an unusual
method he employed to bring his
cattle thru the drought period.
After the cattle had devoured all
the grass in the pastures and be-
gan to paw the earth for something
to eat, he tried the experiment Of
chopping down elm trees for food.
The cattle took to it readily and
seem to thrive on the leaves and
tender branches. For over a
month he supported 80 head of
stock in this way, and when the
rains came at last and the grass
began to grow again they were in
better condition than in the early
part of the season.
