temerity to suggest anything so I'M
pleasant to so many powerful inter-
eStS.
The law in regard to the railroads
carving the mails has not been
amended since 1878, when the post
master general was ordered to cut
down the compensation 3 per cent.
During the last ten years the cost of
mail transportation has increased
from $50 1898. 2O9.53 to SCI 900, 441.l3.
Each year has witnessed an increase
of about 100000 in this eXpend1-
ture. When the law was made the
railways were receiving but S9,567,-
$50 a year for doing this work for
the government. Now they are get
ting S39953 ,607.05.
Whatever may be true in regard to
other methods in which railroads are
getting more than their due. there
can be no doubt that the special ia
cilities'' appropriations which they
have been getting FROM congress are
little better than steal. Even the
postal commission, which made a
very mild report. and was headed by
that mildly complacent reformer. ex-
Senator Wolcott of Colorado, said OF
these:
I'm the opinion of these commits
sion, the testimony does not show
that this fund is of any real benefit
to the postal service. 1t is convinced
that the facilities along lines similar
ly situated are just as excellent and
| adequate as those obtained by the
government along subsidized lines.
The commission feels that this 'spe'
cial facilities fund, being decidedly
limited in it's operation, is in the ma
ture of a discrimination in favor OF
the subsidized roads, tending to ere
ate dissatisfaction on the part of 9th
err roads, and the post office depart
ment is authorized and empowered
to require fully as good service as
they are now receiving from these
roads"

COTTONSEED MEAL.
~ ls rood stuff Rich in Protein
and Can BE Used to Advantage
for Pigs.

A bulletin of the Oklahoma sta.
tion says: Protein, the nitropenons
part of the feed, is the most impor
tant constituent in it. Many of the
common feeds on the farm. as corn
haflr. corn, etc, do not contain this
ingredient in sufficient amount for
the best results in feeding. A feed
is generally valuable in proportion
to the amount of protein it contains
Cottonseed meal is one of the very
richest feeds in protein and it is a
very cheap source of this valuable
food ingredient. In cattle feeding
cottonseed meal is used quite extern
s1vely and with the best results
where certain precautions are fol-
lowed. 1t has been used only to a
limited extent in pig feeding, as fa-
tai results have followed as a rule
in the general way of feeding 1t.
After feeding on it from four to six
weeks the pigs would commence DIV.
ing, and this has usually been the
case when even small amounts of
the cottonseed meal have been fed
along with other grain. The writer
has found mixture of one-fifth cot
tonseed meal and four-ffths corn or
kafir meal to give most excellent re-
suits when fed to pigs, and with
very few exceptions no pigs have
died. if the cottonseed meal was not
longer than four weeks.
Later experiments at this station in
1icate that there are several condi- |
lions under which pigs may be fed
small amount of cottonseed meal |
With other grain for an indefinite
line without iniuring the pigs in any
way. and good gains obtained with |
small amount of grain. One of |
he conditions is where the shoats |
lave access to plenty Of range and
'reen feed. Again. if the cottonseed
neal is dropped after feeding three
'r four weeks and after a lapse of
wo or three weeks added to the
eed again for three or four weeks.
nd dropped again for a few weeks,
nd so on until the pigs are grown
r fattened, good gains will be OBJ
aimed with practically no loss of
.gs.
