Prof. Kennedy replies to a CORE
spondent who had asked how long q
ton of good clover or timothy hay
would feed horse under ordinary cir
cumstances.
"Our correspondent can very easily
figure out just how long ton of hay
will feed a horse, providing he has
the weight of the animal. Horses OF
different sizes require different
amounts of hay. AS general rule
most men feed too much hay to their
horses. A horse weighing 1900 pounds
should not have over IL to 10 pounds
per day, thus one ton would feed such
an animal about 100 to 165 days. A
horse weighing 1900 to 1900 pounds
should not have over Is to is pounds
per day, thus it is very easy to figure
out the, length of time a ton would
feed an animal of this size.
mixed hay, such as timothy ant
clover, provided 1t was cut at thu
proper season and thoroughly cured
should give very good results. Tim
othy is preferred to clover for feed
ing driving horses, due TO the fac
that it is considered to be more sub
stantial. On the other hand. clove
hay is preferable for fattening horses

A New Compress That II fl Claimed,
VIII Add Mlllians to the
Southern Industry.

A cotton compress, which IL -
claimed will revolutionize the cotton
industry of the country and give man.
ufactured cotton to the consumer at
materially reduced prices and stu
leave a larger margin of profit for all
concerned than Is at present enjoyed,
is on exhibit in the south end Of the
palace of agriculture. Worlds fair.
The COMPRISING of cotton has al
ways been most expensive and re-
quires much energy and time. The
machinery is bulky and costly and the
handling of the cotton crop after 1t
has left the gin reduces materially the
income of the cotton planter. The
compression which so much is claimed
congresses the cotton Immediately as
it leaves the gin. This obviates the
pressing of the cotton and the addi-
tional expense of transfer from the
gin to the congresses. The density
secured by the new invention is 80
pounds to the cubic foot. The bulk
and weight of the compress Is com
paratively small. the bale Is square
and 1t is claimed the cost of it is in
considerable, placing it within the
reach of every ginner. BY means OF
1t ginning and COMPRISING will prac
tically be one process, and it is claimed
millions in profits will be added to the
cotton industry of the south

NOVEL PLAN OF INVENTOR.
Corporal in the Navy Has New Scheme
of Aerial Transportation, But
Fears Standard Oil Company.

Fearing that the Standard Oil com
pany will ruin his scheme OF aerial
navigation by exhausting the supply OF
oil in the earth, thus stopping its revo-
lutions, Frederick Laub, a corporal OF
the Quartermaster's department at the
League island navy yard, has prepared
q petition which he intends submitting
to congress, asking to have the cor
poration restrained from further opera
tons.
Backed by John Butler, wealthy
merchant Of Newark, N. j., Laub con-
structed model airship which, accord
ing to his statement, will far outdis-
lance any inventions of the kind here
tofore thought Of. A trial trip was
given on July 4. but owing to the
breaking of piston rod the ship did
not fly. The inventor is not discour-
aged, however. and says that success II

The plan is novel one. based upon
the theory that there is point where
the resistance of earth and sun re-

where gravitation is neutralized. O
this space he intends to make use.
All that is necessary is to sail an air

WORLDS OLDEST CITY
FOUND BY CHICAGO UNIVERSITY
ExCAvATING EXPEDITION.
Udnunlki, Which Scholars Say Is the
Adab Of Ancient Times, Uncov-
cred In Babylonia-Discovery
Of Great Importance.

Udnunki. the ancient Adab, perhaps
the oldest city in the world, has been
discovered by the University Of Chi
cago's excayating expedition in Baby
lonia. This city has for many years
been the object of search by oriental
lists. 1t is mentioned In the code OF
Hammurabi, an early king OF Babyio-
MIA, which document was translated
recently by Prof. Robert F. Harper OF
the Chicago university, director OF the
expedition. He received the news the
other day in cablegram from Prof. p.
J. Banks, field director Of the expedi-
ton, who since leaving this country
last winter for Bismya in Babylonia.
has announced many important dis
coveries. The uncovering of ancient
Adab is the greatest. triumph of the
expedition ana one of the most impor-
tant archaeological achievements OF
recent years.
DR.. Banks informed Prof. Harper
that he had found bricks bearing the
syllables Ud-Nun-M at the lowest
level of the ruins. He is certain that
these bricks identify the city OF Adab.
With force of 120 men he excavateo
the ruins at Bismya and found the re-
mains of four temples, built one above
the other, which he named according
to the kings. who built them. The
dates became earlier until finally the
bricks identifying Udnunh were found
| Among the other articles which DR.
Banks found are marble statues. ony,
and sandstone lamps and many bronze
objects.
1.-THE discoveries announced by DR.
Banks are of the greatest Importance
to science" said Prof. Harper after re
ceiving the news. "The site which I
being excavated by our expedition I'm
der the present name of Bismaya un
doubtedly had the ancient name
Udnunki, which mosts tudents read q
