MY judgment is that bran should
make up at least one-half by weight Of
a cows ration, says ] &. Hills in
American Cultivator. like it, not be-
cause it is particularly rich, but be
cause of its light, faky character and
because it helps tighten the ration. It
is less digestible than the heavier

CATTLE FEEDING.
The Crowd Is Not Rupning THAT
WRy--Fav0rable Signs.

The Crowd Is Not Running That
WRy--FavOrable Signs.
The cattle feeding problem is now
before a great many farmers who have
produced crop of corn, and the Ma
tional Stockman looks at it thus: Farm
ers had hard experience last year
with high priced feeders, dear corn
and an oversupply of fat cattle. They
hesitate to embark again in a business
that is fraught with such risks. 1t is
bad enough to lose one corn crop. but
serious matter to risk losing two.
Sheep feeding paid better last year,
and the price of grain is attractive. In
the face of all this will it pay to feed
cattle9 That is a question to which
no direct answer can be given, but cer-
tainly the outlook is much better than
it was last year.
Feeders are cheaper by at least ST. so
per hundredweight. an important diff
ference. Last year they were entirely
too high; this year they can be had at
a reasonable price. And this is a car
dinal point in the matter: If feeders
cannot be bought right it is seldom
wise to feed. The price of corn is high,
but there is no reason to expect it to
be higher than it was last year be
cause a good many people expect to
sell it. Still others may be forced to
sell it instead Of feeding it. Money is
very tight now, and banks are not
lending any more than they can help,
a fact that may tend to restrict feed
ing operations and at the same time to
enlarge selling of corn
But perhaps the most hopeful sign
of all to the prospective cattle feeder
is the fact that the crowd is not run
ming his way. A year ago everybody
wanted to feed cattle Many were
burned and dread the fire now Today
sheep seem to be very popular, but
there is no great rush into cattle. All
OF these things are more favorable for
the beef producer than the circum.
stances Of last year, but still it is i'm
possible to say that cattle feeding il
to be a paying business. Signs favor
it, however,

WASHINGTON LETTER.
WAsHINeToN. Nov. l6, 19(

WASHINGTON. Nov 16, 1908.
What might be termed the Roosevelt
Doctrine has Just been announced from
the White House in that part of the Presi
dents message which referred to the canal
negotiations and was written before the
revolution broke out in Panama. It had
to be cut out of the coming message but
the President took care that it should not
be lost % the public and gave it out for
publication He says very plainly, if
Columbia will not come to satisfactory
sgrasgn sn4wifh us, let us build the canal
in spite of her. The following quotations
give the substance of the remarkable state
ment High authorizes on internationa
law hold that the canal can be dug as an
incident to exercising the power to prevent
the obstruction Of traffic across the 18TH
mus in my Judgment it is time to de-
clare that the beginning of the canal cannot
be much longer delayed. This nation does
not desire to be unreasonable or impatient,
but it cannot and will not permit any body
of men permanently to obstrnct one Of the
great world highways of traffic. It seems
evident IN q matter such as this we should
finally decide which in the best route, and
il the advantages Of this or any other pos
sible ronte are sufficiently marked, VT
should then give notice that we can ne
longer submit to trifling or insincere deal
log on the part of those whom the accident
Of position has placed in tempory control Of
the ground through which the route mus
pass; that If they will come to agreement
with Us in straightforward fashion we
shall in return act not only with justice
but with generosity: and that if they fail
10 come to such agreement with rs, W.
must forwith take the matter into our own
hands This is to be cutout Of the Presl-
dents message because of the changed con
dtions on the Isthmus- Why, therefor,
should the President Of the United States
pub ish such a gratuitous insult to the
Sovereignty Of the South American coun-
tries? What right has be to talk aboui
Colombia or Nicaragua being in 'tempn-
arvss pns session the land through which
the Tan il must pass2 How can the South
American countries believe in the sincerity
Of our carving out treaty obligations on
the Isthl as when the President declares
that this TIA y gives us the right to build
the canal without CoIonlhia's consent

At the last election in New York City
over soc, 900 votes were polled, number
exceeded by only FIVE states in the Union
and according to the statements of 10th
Democratic and Fusion leaders there was
practically no legal voting, and every
vote was counted as cast. That is more
than can be said Of many cities that profess
greater morality.

The old soldier who has been having his

AT ADLER'S,
The Great Mill End
Sale Now On,
Big Crowd at the Store
All Day.

The min and factory sale, which Leo
pold Adler inaugurated yesterday, Gre
ated a Hurry on Broughton street.
The crush was so great that the
store had to be closed at 2 o'clock to
replenish the stock.
This stock comprises remnants of all
kinds. The left overs" from factories
from one end of the country to the
other, are dumped upon his counters,
and they are marked at one-haif less
than the usual price for such fabrics.
The goods upon the counters embrace
pieces of silk, from one to three yards,
samples of waists, sample suits, SAM
pie skirts, and all manner of dress
silks.
Mr.. Adler wishes it understood that
this sale is not a cheap sale, in the
sense that shoddy goods would make 1t
cheap, for the wealthiest will be able
to pick up very suitable things.
The rich as well as the poor will find
that it win be what they have not met
with before in Savannah.
An Eastern trade paper has this to
say of the sales of the mill and fac
tories:
Representative of the allied mills
and factories. with headquarters in
New York, have consigned the largest
shipment of merchandise which ever
left New York for the South, to Leo
pold Adler, Savannah, Ga, where it
will be sold at their semi-annuaI mill
and factory sale. This is the largest
department store affording the best
service in that section of the United
States. and for this reason the manu-
facturers use it as a distributing agen-
cy for their mill remnants, and the
odds and ends left over at the end of
the season at the factories.
Being in the South where the sea-
son is father advanced than in the
North, Leopold Adler will be given the
first sale for this spring."
In connection with this sale Mr.. Ad-
Ter is putting on muslin underwear
sale, to which he is devoting great
care.
This sale is very large and embraces
the largest line at wonderful prices. .

into the proceedings of the House by
lively personal tilt with Speaker Hen

Representative Hull, from the Militia

general staff for the army, the meas
ure so dear to the heart of Secretary
Root Mr.. Richardson objected to such
an important measure being rushed
through under whip and spur, and
unanimous consent was denied
Chairman, Hull attempted to force
action by voting to suspend the rules
and pass the bill, Notwithstanding the
objection. Instantly there was a con-
tiict. and bad blood was boiling on
both sides of the chamber. Two roll
calls failed to disclose a quorum, and
an adjournment was forced without &C
ton being reached. Pending the spir-
tied debate, Representative Bartlett be-
came involved in a mix-up with Speak
er Henderson, who was anxious that
the bill should pass according to the
programme he had marked out with
Republican leaders. Here is the Off
