WOULD MANUFACTURE FEED.
Dr.. Noreaard Makes Proposition to
Chamber of Commerce.

The Chamber of Commerce has a propo-
sition TO consider which may lead to the
establishm4 OF a feed manufacturing
concern in this city. DR.. Norgaard Of
New York called at the Chamber of Com
merce rooms and made an explanation
Of process by which blood, molasses
and corn stalks are worked into a stock
food which is . per cent more nutritious
than oats of the same amount and can
be manufactured and sold for % per cent
less than the present price of oats.
Blood is taken fresh from the packing
houses and mixed with 10 per cent of its
weight in molasses. This is then mixed
with corn stalks, crushed almost into
powder. This forms a sort of dough,
which is placed in a drying plant and is
subjected to $50 degrees Fahrenheit. At
ter half an hours baking it is taken out
in the form of powder and mixed with
enough molasses TO make it moist and is
then ready for the market, being sold in
sacks.
The patents for this process were first
secured four years ago in Sweden and
about two years ago in this country and
many experiments have been conducted,
which have proven this feed to be of in
estimable value.
The Blood Molasses Feed company of
New York has a number of plants in
operation in different parts of the cOun-
try and it is said that the food does Won
ders with horses and cattle 1t may be
fed entirely but is better mixed about
equal parts with oats It's purpose is to
add to the carbon nitrates and the por-
ton Of an animals food and in a form
more easily digested than any grain, and
il also helps to digest the grain mixed
with it,
Corn stalks or chaff are used in Its
manufacture. This is done to give the
+l,1 -stf, .af1 Mt
or chaff is very absorbent. The blood
and molasses and ground corn stalks or
chaff are thrown into big watts together
and stirred until thoroughly mixed and
all of the liquid has been absorbed. 1t
is then baked.
The company may establish a plant in
this city. They have plenty of capital
and do not ask for contributions from
the citizens. but they want the cooper
alton of the people here in making their
frs. contracts for blood and corn stalks
and to get the food started

of the company fifty thousand dollars,
making the total capital of the company

it was found necessary TO have a larger
capital in order to conduct the business
properly. But Il short time ago cata-
logue Of one thousand pages was issued.
and listed in ii was q much larger stock
and Of more different lines than hereto

NO NEW DEVELOPMENT
IN Mystery Surrounding Death of
GEORGIA Bentley


There were no new developments in
the mystery surrounding the death Of
Georgia Bentley yesterday. The measure
ments of the woman were taken yester-
day and in the afternoon the officers went
to the house and measured the doors to
see if there was any possibility of the
woman being shot through one of the
doors, or the bullet after going through
her head causing one OF the bullet holes
in the door.
The detectives are trying to find the
solution as to how the bullet went through
the lower door from the kitchen. This
is one of the main points in the case,
and the officers feel that if they can solve
this they viii find clear case against
Newton Green.
Yesterday the theory was advanced that
the bullet which caused the womans
death made the hole in the door after
killing her. on the east wall of the mid
die room is a spot which clearly shows
the imprint of Il bullet. It is possible
although hardly plausible, that the re
bound OF the bullet may have penetra I'D
the open door. Green was shot he
stepped into the doorway. He may have
taken the revolver away from the woman
and in the scuffle it may have been fired
causing the hole in the upper panel. The
door into the kitchen may have been par
TALLY open and the shot h,NI passed
through the panel of the door, although
from the size of the hole this is seeming
ly impossible.
There have been many theories ad
vanced. A bullet was found beside the
woman. The bullet hole in the east wall
is such that the bullet may have re-
bounded with sufficient strength to make
the hole in the door. This theory was
advanced yesterday by several persons
who viewed the premises. Practically,
IL is impossible for a bullet TO do this.
yet the detectives are making expert
nents to see if it is possible.

DR.. NORGAARD IN CITY.
Has Been Investigating Cattle Mango
In Texas.

DR.. Victor y. Norgaard arrived in the
city yesterday from trip through Texas.
where he has been investigating cattle
mango. DR.. Norgaard is a veterinary
surgeon of worldwide reputation and
has made a special study of cattle dis
eases. especially when in the form of d
plague, and cattle mango seems to be
very prevalent at this time. DIR. Nor
gard for a number of years was chief
of the pathological department of the
bureau of animal industry in the depart
ment of agriculture and introduced the
vaccine sent out by the department for
the prevention and cure of black-leg in
cattle. The government furnishes this
vaccine to the people and many have been
saved from heavy losses from black-leg
by its use.
Dr. Norgaard is a graduate Of the Uni
versity of Copenhagen and is best known
through his experiments with black-leg.
He has severed his connection with the
government and is now investigating the
mango in western cattle.
This has come to be of great impor-
lance TO western cattlemen, as some herds
have become infected with the mango and
the losses have been heavy in some in
stances. IT is caused by a small para
site. The skin is irritated and as the
animals scratch and rub the infected
parts sores and ScaDS are formed ana
the cattle soon lost flesh color and vital
ity. and the incessant annoyance causes
the animal TO neglect feeding and death
finally results, unless some means are
taken TO remove the mango.
Cattlemen are seriously considering this
question, which is of the utmost impor-
lance to them. The infection has only
appeared in any great extent within the
past few years, but the losses have been
I - l. 10
to relieve the cattle. Many experiments
have been conducted. but SO far il seems
that the only effective method Of reliey-
ing the cattle is by dipping. DR.. Nor
gard has been conducting some expert
ments in the west with dip prepared by
an eastern company and is thoroughly
investigating the infection which is caus-
ing heavy losses to cattlemen and seems
10 be on the road to become as danger
Gus as the tick causing Texas fever.
