AS YOU LIKE IT.

The following rhyme might be called
GAS You Like It," up to date. Mos
people believe the lines should be reat
as they are printed, but crusty ole
bachelor reads the first and third and the
second and fourth lines together:
The man must lead happy life
3lWho is directed by a wife;
Who's free from matrimonial chains
.a' Is sure to suffer for his pains.
Adam could find no real peace
Until he saw a wonans face.
When Eve was given for mate,
Adam was in happy state.
In all the female hearts appear
Truth, darling Of heart sincere;
Hypocracy, deceitand pride
= Meier is known in woman to reside.
What tongue is able to unfold
The worth in woman we behold?
The falsehoods that i'll women dwell
Is almost imperceptible.
Hanged be the foolish man, say,
Who will not yield to woman's sway!
Who changes from his singleness
Is sure of perfect blessedness. lex.

last group was probably responsible
for the small profit shown, which in
dicates the Importance of studying
and utilizing those gains best adapted
for the cheap production of pork.
The price of food-stuffs has marked
influence on the profit from afeeding
experiment.
II. These experiments clearly dem
onstrate the Importance of skim
milk as an adjunct food for hogs.
The best ratio is one pound of grain
to to pounds of skim milk.

(Answerd by w. F. Massey, of the
North Carolina Agricultural Ex-
pertinent Station.)
Eternal vigilance is the only thing
that will destroy nut grass. When
I took possession of the place where
I now live three years ago, the gar
den was a complete meadow Of nut
grass-which, by the way, is not
grass at al, but true seidge (cyperus
Hydra)-and some said | would
never get rid of it. / have not got
ten rid of it yet, but it is very
scarce compared with it's luxuciance
three years ago. One reason why
nut grass fourishes so is that people
let it go to seed in the fall, and there
are thousands of the plants that
come from seed to every one that
comes from the roots. No plant that
makes green leaves above ground
can live long if not allowed to make
green leaves. I am thinning out the
nut grass by keeping it chopped off
all summer and fall. Of course you
may chop if off to-day, and if the
rains comes that night, it will be up
and smiling tomorrow, and if you
let it alone it will be green as ever
in day or so. But chop it off con-
tinually, and you will find it getting
thinner all the time. Then keep this
up till frost and never let a plant
make seed. I have mine under to
such an extent that it is no longer>
a pest in my crops, and another sea-
son will nearly see the last of it.
Then if it is where you can plow it,
turn it up late in the fall and the
winter will kill a great of it.

Feeding Cotton Seed Meal.

Feed1ng COTTON SEED meal.
The Arkansas Station has been
conducting some experiments in the
feeding to swine of cotton-seed meal,
with the object of finding out why it
SO often proves fatal. A summary
of the results of the experiments
says:
1. The harmful effects of overfeed-
ing with cotton-seed meal are mani
tested in all species of animals
far tested. Hogs exhibit no great
excess of susceptibility over cattle
when fed in doses proportionate to
their weight.
2. In first series of tests embrace
ing nine pigs of thirty to fifty
pounds in weight, all died in from
thirty-four to sixty-four days on a
daily allowance of 6 to 8 pounds of
cotton-seed meal in mixture with
ground corn or bran.
3. Wheat bran or wheat chops in
combination with cotton-seed meal
proved less dangerous to pigs than
similar mixture with ground corn.
4. In later tests embracing alto
gether fourteen hogs, cottonseed
meal was fed in mixture with bran,
wheat chops and cut cow-pea hay
for periods of from three to six
months without any evident harmful
effects the daily allowance of cotton
seed meal being from 8 to Ia per
cent of the body weight, or from A
to Z pounds to pigs weighing fifty
pounds.
5. In one test cotton-seed meal in
above doses was fed to a SOW during
the last eighty days of pregnancy
without harm to mother or progeny.
s. In one test embracing three pigs,
crude cotton oil was fed for twenty
weeks in amount exceeding what is
contained in fatal ration of cotton
seed meal without any evil effects;
hence, it is probable that the harmful
effects Of over-feeding with cotton
seed meal are not attributable to the
oil which it contains.
Z. The Characteristic post-mortem
feature of cotton-seed meal poison.
ing in all our cases was an acute
dropsy of the pleural and heart sacs
with intense congestion (probably
secondary of the liver and kidneys,
immediate cause of death being suf-
location from compression of the
lungs.

AGRICULTURE
Economical Pork Production.

The Agricultural Experiment Sta
tion of Tennessee has just issued a
bulletin giving the results of using
corn wheat, and soy bean meal with
skim milk for pork production. The
following are the conclusions arrived
at:
/. Where the ration fed was corn
meal it took 4.6 pounds to make 1
pound of gain in 1901, 2.8 pounds
in 1902, and II in 1908, or an average
of Al pounds for the three years.
2. From the data presented under
the table of rations used it would
be an easy matter to estimate the
amount of food required for hogs of
varying weights. Hogs fed in the
ratio of l pound of grain to 3, 6, 8
and u pounds of skim milk made the
largest gains on from 9 to II pounds
of skim milk. The consumption of
skim milk reduced the consumption
Of concentrates considerably, though
the cost of a pound of gain was low
est with a consumntion of 1 pound
Of grain to 3 pounds of skim milk.
This shows that animals will often
consume larger quantities of food
than they can digest and assimilate
with the greatest economy.
3. The largest gain per head per
day was made by Groups III and ",
lao pound, followed closely by
Groups l and VI, with a gain of 1.35
pound. The other groups all gained
L5O pound with the exception of the
lot fed corn meal and water. The
largest gains were made by the
groups receiving corn meal and
wheat meal, mixed in the ratio of 2
10 l, with skim milk. The ratio of
gram to skim milk was 1 to with
groups III and 1 to u with Group
~ Ihls ratio made the best gain
Out was not the most economical.
l. 1t required 14O pounds of con-
'entrates and 1,64O pounds of skim
mix n to make 100 pounds of gain with
Utoup ", which received 1 pound
" gram and u pounds of skim
I!lA' III As the ratio between the skim
Illk and gain decreased the con-
npuon OF concentrates increased.
D. Group I, which received 1
@ pound Of grain to 3 pounds of skim
= Lux consumed so pounds more grain
st'I Group " and $50 pounds less
u SKIM milk, which makes it'evident
r-a' the ratio of grain to skim milk
as TOO 10, wide in the latter group.

'It will pay to make little sacrit
fee for the children, and parents who
do so are heading the opposite direc-
ton from the poor house, strange as
it may seem to some. Keep the
schools going."- Record, Madi-
son County.
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1903-11-03


VIII consumed only 1.6 pounds OF
concentrates with approximately IL
pounds of skim milk per pound OF
gain. In other words, 10 pounds
of skim milk saved 212 pounds OF
corn meal.
Z. The experiment indicates that
a bushel of corn produced 1876
pounds of pork, which at cents
would give it a feeding value of 81
cents bushel; at cents, 68 cents a
bushel, and at Z cents. a feeding
value of 95 cents. A farmer often
sells his corn at 40 to so cents, when
fat hogs would bring him S to
cents per pound, under the mistaken
idea that he cannot afford to feed it.
Corn has been purchased at 80 cents
a bushel and fed at a profit at the
Station.
8. In the case of Group VI, it was
possible to secure 35 pounds of gain
with a consumption of 416.5 pounds
of skim milk. On the basis of the
gain made from corn meal and water
416.5 pounds of skim milk made 21.4
pounds of gain when fed with corn
meal. This would give it feeding
value at 81 cents when pork sells at
6 cents, of 26 cents when pork sells
at 5 cents, and 36 cents when pork
sells at cents.
8. The manure from animals con-
stitutes a part of the legitimate
profits from any feeding experiment,
as it takes the place of purchased
commercial fertilizers, which are not
so satisfactory. When Is per cent
of the fertilizer value of the food
stuffs consumed was credited to the
animal, the average cost of a pound
of gain for all groups was 81 cents /;
when no allowance was made for the
manure, 5 cents. There is no reason
why at least Is per cent of the ma
nurial constituents of the food-stutfs
should not be returned to the soil
under proper management, which ac-
cording to these figures would reduce
the cost of a pound of gain by 1.3
cent.
10. The highest gross cost of a
pound of gain was with Group V,
fed corn meal alone, So cents, or
IA cent more than Group I. The
cost of a pound of gain was close in
all instances and in no case was ex-
cessive.
II. The profit per group without
considering the manurial value OF
the excrements was largest with
Group I, $7.63; Groups IL and Ill
made a profit of 1927 and $5.62, re-
spectively; Groups vi and VII, $4.96
and $418; Group Viii, 1888. The
cost of soy beans in the case OF the
