what progress in public matters would there be If every citizen were at the languishing-f -fiance state of develop ment? A woman may say that she would like to have her husband behave exactly as he did when he was fionce yet If he acted the role for half a day she would beg him to stop. A hus- band signing deep with love all the time would be annoying, to say the least, and if he insisted upon holding his wife's hand when both hands were needed for work, she would grow rest less. Suppose, also, that he snouIu spend time writing sonnets to her eye brow while other work awaited him or that he should snip off a lock of her hair frequently to show devotion! Stealing a glove or slipper when she was enconhizing would hardly seem a knightly deed. even if after hunting many vexing hours she should discover however desirable a good dancer and brilliant conversationalist may be as fiance, when a wife is cross oY i'll she would infinitely prefer as companion a wall-flower without cleverness or re- partee. And if like Molly in The Vir- ginia" she never wholly understands her husband, in her complete love for him she finds enough.
 And to the suggestion that man be after marriage exactly what he was beforehand we may adapt some advise from "The Old Maids Corner" No one ought to be quite the same after any thing; and If, as at times, we unhap- oily are, what wretched dried-up, stag nent incapable of growing kinds of people we prove ourselves to bel"

From the above financial statement, It will be seen that at the high prices oI recent years, the total average cost or food eaten by each animal from ene age of two to four weeks until z4.3 months old. averdged s1S.39. and tnat the value of the average steer at this age. weighing 867 pounds, was *z6.O1. This gives an average differ ence of $762 between cost of food and selling price, and must cover the cost or the calf at 2 to weeks old, and other items of expense,
 A much more favorable financial showing could have been made had not each of these steers been used in feeding experiments during each of two winters. There was no special eff fort to grow the animals as economica- ny as possible when economy con- nicted with experimentation as to the comparative value of foods. It IS planned to grow in future lot of grade calves with the primary object of producing beef as cheaply as the conditions at Auburn permit. and we are confident that with this end in view the cost can be greatly reduced below tho figures given above by the following changes in the method of handling animalsi
 
 grain in winter and the substitution for 1t of leguminous hay and winter pastures
 CD By the use of cheaper grain food. chiefly cotton seed.
 (3) By causing the calves to be dropped after Christmas and keeping them only two winters if they are ready for market.
 In order to make 1t easier for each reader to draw his own conclusions from the data above and to place his own local prices on the foods used, the following summary of the average amounts of food consumed per animal up to the age of 243 months, has been prepared.
 Average amount of food consumed by grade steers from age of two to four weeks to age of 24.3 months.
 First year
 1SS pounds skim milk.
 25S pounds grain.
 225 pounds hay
 months pasturage.
 Second year
 4S0 pounds grain. chiefly cotton seed. 1276 pounds sorghum hay and corn StoVer.
 1-2 months pasturage.
 From the above detailed data prev iously noted we learn that the aver age cost of feed and pasturage for a steer up to the age 24.3 months old was $1S.39. Of this, the cost incurred during the first year for calves dropp- ed in the fall was $10.45; the cost of food and pasturage the second year was S7.94.
 The average cost of flood per pound of live weight was PIP cents, which cost could have been reduced if the prime object in feeding these animals had continually been the cheapest pro- duction of beef.

Poisoning Cotton.

A LowrIdes County correspondent asks whether 1t is better to apply Pa ris green to cotton in the west or in the dry form.
 Answer-In reply to your letter rcla- tive to methods for poisoning the cot ton worm CT caterpillar, I would say that 1t is generally found much mol e convenient to apply the Paris green in dry form. The usual preference is shghtiy In favor of mixture of three parts flour and one part Paris ar,ar, but many apply the poison without di- lution. In either case you would use the ordinary shallow cloth bags tack ed to both ends of a stick.

 Using twenty young grade steers of the beef breeds, the following com parisons of foods were made: Cotton seed with cotton seed meal Gots II and D; sorghum hay with a mixture Df cowpea and sorghum hay. Gots III and ID; sorghum hay with shredded eorn stover Nots III and IV.
 The feeding period covered S4 days in addition to preliminary feeding. In all rations a small proportion of corn chop was used. As much grain was fed as the appetites and health of the steers permitted As much rouShness was fed as the steers would eat.

Cost of Producine Reef.

From Bulletin No. l2S, Alabama Ex- pertinent Station.
 To afford final conclusions as to the cost of producing beef, 1t will he necessary 10 raise number of ani- nals in different years and under widely different conditions. However the following data based on the re. suits with three steers is offered as a preliminary contribution to our knowl- edge on the subject
 An account was kept of the amount Of food consumed by each of three calves from the age of two or three weeks until taken from the pasture at the end of the second grazing season. November 1. 1903, when we were of- fered three cents per pound for them by a local butcher. These animals were Dangus, a steer sired by a regis tered Angus, and out of a large COW that seemed to be about 1-2 Jersey; Toom, a steer sired by a registered Red Poll bull. and uuu Of a large na- tive COW. apparently Shorthorn grade; Holstein, u -Ioss- breed Short horn Holstein- All of these were dropped between September 21 and De- cember 17, 1901. The history of these individuals is as follows: For the first one or two weeks after birth the calves. then belonging to private invid- uals, subsisted on the milk afforded bv one teat of the dam. One of these calves. Holstein. dropped on the Sta tion Farm. was never allowed to suck but was fed for the first few weeks on whole milk or part whole milk. The account for food stands as follows:
