Hay For Feeding Steers.

According to H J. Waters, Dean
OF the Missouri Agricultural College,
and manager Of the largest catt'e
feeding experiment ever made by tie
Federal government, Missouri farm
ers ard stockmen ought to obtain il
possible a supply OF ii yer hay to
feed their cattle next winter,
even II they must sell their timothy
to doso.
"ln many cases" says Dean Waters
lit will be profitable to sell timothy
and buy clover rather than to feed
the timothy to any class OF cattle
"The results OF our eight years OF
experiments at the Missouri Agri
cultural College with several hundred
mead OF cattle of all ages, from calves
to two and-a half year old steers, fed
under all conditions, from merely be
ing wintered to full led, show that
bushnell OF corn worth zoe, VIXEN FIJI
with the best qIality oftimothy hay
millet or sorghum, il worth from 3Gc
to 40c when fed with clover, alfalfa
or cowpeas. This is due to the fact
that these plants supply a very i'm
portant ingredient in which corn is
deficient. Hay made from timothy,
millet or sorghum Is more deficient
in this element than corn, and makes
the ration even more one sided or
unbalanced.
"Oi course, farmers had better
raise clover hay than to buy 1t, for
while growing it improves the iertil-
isy OF the farm, a thing which cannot
be said OF timothy. There Is no
single way in which the farmers of
Missouri can so readily improve the
quality OF their soil and increase their
Income as by devoting larger areas
to clover, cowpeas, or alfalfa, making
q larger Use of these crops III the Or
binary cattle feeding operations"

The darkness deepens-Lord, with

DuuiCA hos
Dear Sir: You sell good many
things by the gallon. Being decent
man, you give full measure.
You know what we mean; you
know that short weight and short
measure are common among-well,
we'll we hope there are no short
measures and weights In your town.
There are, though. Ribbons and
lsces and trimmings, sold by the
"dozen," measure nine or ten yards.
There is no complaint, because
"they all do it." You have the same
plague in your goods-nearly every
body, canned or bottled cheat in the
quality. Alrost nobody gives full
weight in a factory-packagel
We are one Of the almost no bodies.
We sell paint, by the gallon, to paint
your house; and our gallon lie just
the same size as yours that you
measure vinegar with-231 cubic
inches.
Good paint too-Devoe lead and.
zinc-takes fewer gallons than mixed
paint and wears twice as long a.
lead and oil.
You own house. That's why No
are writing to you.
