Saving the Best Seed Corn.

Where the corn Is iiusked into the

corn is often injured in ways not fully
understood, when stored into bins or

vnlue of Cattle Foods.

The value OF cattle foods depends
largely upon their digestibility. There
is more protein in straw than in corn
fodder, but the latter is more digesti-
Bile. Some coarse foods are valuable,
however, in assisting to digest the con-
centrated foods by giving bulk to the
mess, and separating the materials
especially when the coarse foods are
reduced to a fine condition. Even If
but portion Of the straw foods are
digested they are prepared for the ma
nure heap by the animals, and are thus
increased in value compared With
wasteful use.

A HEAD-ON COLLISION
And as Usual There Was Nobody to
 Blame for It.

This relation concerns a newspaper man and a constable and it is net de- signed to be a funny story either. There is no danger of making either Of them sore, for they are as sore now as they could be and continue to follow their daily avocations.
 Both Constable D. P Kyle and Editor Joe Shelton of the Gazette, live in the east end of town. The forme: was go- ing home on his bicycle Thursday even ing just after dark and the latter was coming down town on his bicycle. They collidei, head on, between Seventh and Nineth streets. And it was sure enough head on," for the wheels both jumped the track, while the riders telescoprd each other. Neither was hurt except on the head and both were pretty badly hurt thereabout.
 MT. Kyle says he is certain that only one side of his head hit Mir. Shelton, but he don't know which side it was, for each side is swollen just little more than the other and both sides worse than either. He thought at first that his jaw had been broken, but is new convinced that it was not though it is as sore as though it had been broken twice. Fie teeth is loosened and he is coming to appreciate the sublime poetry of preiigested health food9 that require no mastica tion.
 MT. Shelton fared pretty roughly also, though he has not furnished a bill of particulars. but he insists that next time he has his face worked ever he doesn't want it done by bicycle massage, Or a constable whose move ments are beyond the control of any thing except the law o' gravitation.
 Beth gentlemen insist tbNt they didn't do it o. purpose, and anyone who locks at them will certainly be- lieve them. MT. Shelton claims tnHt ns the double street car track on Wash irgton street goes TO further east than Seventh, MT. Kyle should have taken siding at that roint til he got clear signal ahead and MT. Kyle claims that he had orders issued by the gen. eral manager al home, as early as noon of that day, instructing him to be back for supper at o'clock. Besides he could smell the apple fritters that were then on the stove awaiting his ar rival. He knew that he was running behind the schedule, but thought he had the right Of way and had forgot ten there was only a single track east Of Seventh street.
