FEEDING FOR PROFIT

The nearer we can keep the feed
within the farm crop the more money
we will make. The basal ration should
be farm grains, of which oats are the
best milk feed. Gluten feed and meal
and linseed and cottonseed meals
should be fed very sparingly on ac-
count Of price. Protein, however, is
generally the cheapest in the. feeds
containing high per cent Of this i'm
portant nutrient. = Professor T. L.
Hacker.
Rye and Wheat as Selling Crops.
AT the Maryland experiment station
green rye and green wheat We're fed
to twenty-one cows in successive Pc
RODS Of fifteen days each, and notwith-
standing the tendency to decrease in
yield due to advancing lactation the re-
suits showed an average daily gain of
one pound Of milk per COW during the
latter period. Wheat is therefore be-
lieved to be more valuable than rye as
a soiling crop.
Turnips as Dairy Feed.
The Objectionable part Of winter
turnip as feed for dairy cows is In
the top portion, which is exposed to
the weather If this is cut off it is
good for dry stock. The remaining
lower part Of the bulb will not flavor
the milk or butter Parsnips, carrots
and certain kinds Of beets, which are
so easily grown, are far superior to
turnips and will make a favorable
showing in the net returns of dairy
where abundance Of good, wholesome
milk Is an object.-Cor. Country Gen
tleman.
Winter Pasture For Cows.
One Of my neighbors attributes the
fine color Of his winter butter and the
thrifty look of his chickens to small
patch Of rye or barley which he grows
for winter pasture, writes Kentucky
farmer IN American Agriculturist.
This is sown early enough to be ready
for grazing by February. He began
with one and quarter acres, but
finally increased to fifteen acres. His
poultry runs on 1t large portion Of
each day and the cattle in the morn
1ngS Wnen the ground Is frozen. LIE
advantage shows in the appearance OF
the poultry and stock, as well as in the
additional milk and eggs.
Change Of Pasture.
German tests show that changing
/. cows from poor to good pasture caused
a sudden increase in the yield Of milk.
i but the composition Of the milk was
not Influenced.

Amount Of Cheese.

The amount Of cheese made from 100
pounds of milk testing SO per cent fat
should not vary far from ten pounds.
says Professor Harrington in Hoard's
Dairyman. The yield of cheese is in
creased by the richness Of the milk and
also BY the way in which the curd is
handled in the vat, but under ordinary
conditions at least ten pounds Of cheese
should be made from milk testing be-
tween 3za and per cent fat.

Advertising
ARE TWO WAYS

THERE ARE TWO WAYS
10 advertise--in reliable
newspapers and the other
way. The best way and the way
to be assured of results is through
the columns of the aboye-the-
average country weekly. A dollar
spent in such a way brings ten
times the results it would if spent
in advertising in a daily news
paper. Why?
4 Because the daily's rates are
usually from twice to four times
that of the weekly.
4 Because the daily is the paper
of day, while. the weekly is read
(by each member of the family
from the day of its publication
until Sunday night and then care
fully laid away for reference.
T Because the columns of the
daily belittle its customers, read
ers and friends, while the weekly
extols them.
4 Because the city editor is a
stranger in the midst of his read
ers, while the country editor is
one of his community-he mixes
and mingles with his readers and
knows them all.
4 Because readers have learned to
|, discredit much that appears in the
sensational daily, while they have
J the same faith in the country
J weekly that they do in their best
friends.
4 There are other good "reasons
! why" but space forbids.
4 Wecall especial attention to our
Open-Space Contract
. which permits of the annual adj
vertiser using as many or as few
inches of space as he likes in any
particular issue. In other words,
a large ad. can be run when the
advertiser feels so inclined and
smaller one at other times. NO
additional charge is made for
composition type setting) except
when changes are made oftener
than once a month.

Waiter Trimble PardOned.

The following is taken from the Fl Paso Times, and will be read with deep interest, as well as keen regret by every citizen of Graham county. who knows anything of the facts in the case.
 "Walter Trimble, serving a life sen- tence for rape, alleged to have been committed in Graham county, has been pardoned by Governor Kibbey, and will soon be released from the penitentiary at Yuma. In Graham county in 1902 Trimble and his wife were jointly charged with the rape of a young girl 13 years of age, and in October of the same year Judge Doan, sitting on the bench at Solo, monville, sentenced him to serve sentence in the penitentiary. Mrs. Ir1mble was convicted, but obtained a new trial and a change of venue to another county, but when the case came up for trial it was dismissed, the district attorney of Graham county having been convinced that the prosecuting. witness, the girl was lying"
 The crime for which Trimble was convicted was one of the most atrocious and damnable ever re- corded in the criminal annals of Graham county, the details of which are too revolting for publication in any newspaper.
 A strong effort was made by sister of the prisoner to secure his release when Alexander O. Brodie was gov ernor of Arizona, and he caused an investigation to be made in the matter, and positively refused to grant the pardon, though much pres sure from men of position and in huence was brought to bear to secure it.
 Governor Kibbey, as the chief executive of this territory, owes it to himself that all of the petitions and other matters leading up to this par don, be made public. The people have right to know why, and by whom, this pardon was secured.
