Experiments of Feeds on Milk Production.

The extent to which the compost
ton of milk, especially its fat contents,
can be influenced by the food Of the
cow has been the subject of much dis
cusSiOn and difference of opinion. II.
II. Wing and IA. FoOrd, of the New
York Cornell Station, discussing this
question, say:
For a long time the opinion has
been very strong in the minds Of
dairymen that the percentage of fat
in milk is directly and largely influ-
enced by the food or the COW. If 80
out Of 100 dairymen are asked wheth-
er they can make their cOws
give richer milk by changing
the food, they will anSwe at once
in the affirmative, and many will go
SO far as TO say that they have done 1t
time and again. Still this is n Of
the results that careful Investigators
have been trying to ecu for the last
twenty years, and 81 far they have
met with little Oh no success
While a summing up Of all the work
on this subject heretofore done in this
cOu1try and abroad would indicate
, that in general terms lit is not pos
sible materially and permanently to
increase or diminish the percentage of
fat in the milk Of a COW through
changes in the amount or character Of
the food, it was thought that these
results were not conclusive, because
the experiments were, as a rule, made
with COWS which had previously been
well fed and cared for.
The author therefore undertook to
determine what would be the effect on
the milk Of high feeding of COWS
which had previously been insufficient
ly nouriShed. The experiments were
made with 10 COWS from a single farm
herd of % COWS of mixed breeding.
only four of which were over four
years of age, thin in flesh at the be-
ginning. At the height Of the lacta-
tiOn periods the COWS were given all
they would readily conSume-averag-
ing eight to twelve pounds daily-Of
a grain ration made up largely of cot
I ton seed meal, wheat bran, gluted
feed, buckwheat middlingS and old
, process linseed meal, with occasional
~ ground oats and corr meal. The
proportions and combinations of the
different feeds varied at different Pc
riodS. The improved ration contained
about twice as much ~digeStible protein
as the cows had formerly been receiv.
ing.
The results show that lin q herd Of
! poorly fed COWS an abundant ration
easily digeStible and rather nitrogen
Gus in character, and continued
through two years, resulted in an av-
erage increase OF One-fourth of one
per cent. of fat in the milk-or a per-
ce~tage increase of about six per cent.
This was accompanied by al increase
OF about fifty per cent. in total amount
Of milk and fat produced. The in
creased production vas secured eco
nomically so far us the food cost OF
milk and fat is concerned.
The improvement of the general
condition of the cows receiving the
richer rations was very rapid and
marked Planters Journal.

THE HURRY OF LIFE.

How quickly we Americans exhaust
life. With what painting haste we
pursue everything, Every American
you meet seems to be late for u train.
Hurry is stamped in the wrinkles of
the American face. We pride our
selves upon being practical men, men
who strike Sledge-hammer blows in
business, men who make business Of
recreation, even. We are men Of ac-
tiOn, we die without it; we go faster
and faster as the years go by, speed
our machinery to the utmost, stretch
the silver cord of life until it snaps.
We have not V leisure to die Il nat

PLANS FOR FAIR SHOULD BEGIN NOW.

1t is generally understood that the
Fair this fall is to eclipse all past
OneS-that the FaiY of 1905 is to exec.
in every detail any we have ever had,
This being understood and being Oul
purpose, it behoOveS us to begin now
to lay our plans for this great success.
Scarcely more than-three months in
~terveneS between now and the time
the Fair is usually held, SO there is nc
time to be lost.
The property belongs to the people
of Grenada and Grenada county: the
deed is vested in some trustees and
their successors who hold the proper
ty for the people Of Grenada county.
Therefore all are interested, and to
our friends in the country and the
Fair district in general, we suggest
that they begin now TO select their
stock-llorseS, cows, hogs, ETC.; in
deed prepare to compete for every
premium offered. Whether q premi-
um is received or not, the thought
given stock culture and the extra at
tention given to that which is expect
ed to appear at the Fair, is amply
compensated by better developed stock
and educated ideas of agriculture and
stock raising.
We suggest that the Fair officials
get together and consider our sugges-
tiOns, and 1--WE assure them OF our
hearty cooperation in making the
Fair OF 1905 the BEST OF ALL.

Deathless Mother Love.

Honor the dear old mother. Time
scattered the snowy flakes of once
loved plowed deep burrows on her
cheeks, but is she not sweet and beau
tiful now? The~lipS are thin and
even Shrunken, but those lips are the
ones which have kissed many a hot
tear from the childish cheeks, and
they are yet the sweetest lips in all
the world. The eye is dim, yet it
glows with the soft radiance of holy
love which can never fade. All, yes,
she is a dear old mother! The sands
of life are nearly run; but feeble as
she is, she will go further and reach
down lower for you than any other
0 the earth. You cannot walk
into a midnight where she does not
see you: cannot enter a prison whose
bars will keep her out; you cannot
mount a Scaffold too high for her to
reach that she may kiss and bless
you in evidence of her deathless love.
When the world shall deSpise and for
sake you, when it leaves you by the
waySide to die unnOticed, the dear
old mother will gather you in her
feeble arms and carry you home and
tell you of your virtues until you al
most forget that your soul is diStig-
ured by vices. Love her tenderly and
cheer her declining years with holy
devotion, for she is the foundation of
the wOrld.-Okolona Messenger.

A WORD ABOUT SANITATION.

1t occurs TO US that it would be
wise for the city administration to
look after the drainage Of the town.
The excessive rains have developed
an abnormal growth Of the grass and
weeds which has caused many drains
to almost fill up and accumulate an
unusual amount of debris. AS a
health precautfon we think this par
ticularly necessary.
W. heard one Of our leading physi
clans remark on Thursday evening
that the town was in q very unsani-
tary condition and ought to have the
immediate attention of the prapeI
officials.
In all probability the unsanitary
condition is due largely to the above
mentioned cause.

Cotton Prices Booming.

A Government report Of II per cent
issued Monday sent cotton skyward.
In a very short while it advanced over
i hundred points or $500 per bale
and is remaining up with a strong
bull backing. Upon that basis the
present crop will be less than ten mil
lion bales. Anything like a full crop
would be the accomplishment Of the
impossible. The rains, throughout
the entire spring, have been well
nigh general all over the cotton belt
and short crops are the inevitable re-
suit.

Sheriff Rice is at Sumner this week
looking after official business. Mr..

In Il lengthy article on Mississippi
politics, the Memphis NewS-Scimi-
tar OF July , has the following to say
of the "Joe Folk of Mississippi:"
Earl Brewer. formerly of YalobHSha
comfy, o occupies a leading place
in the discussion for governor. He is
district attorney at Clarksdale and
was a member Of the State senate.
He has a strong following in the State
and is regarded as a strong possibility.
He is a young man with affiliations
that reach into strong political circles.

AN UNFORTUNATE OCCURRENCE.

That a public official in the dis
charge of his duty should become in
yolved iu a difficulty such as that
which was imminent between Dis
trict Attorney Earl Brewer and a
citizen of Water Valley last week, is
exceedingly unfortunate. Knowing
Mr.. Brewer as we do, we feel sure
that his action in this case grew out
Of his. conception of his duty to the
public and in no wise represented his
private, personal or political enmity
for any man or class Of men. His
record as a citizen and a public official
makes any other conclusion impoSSi-
ole. Brewer recognizes no class in his
uphOlding of the law. He %prOSecuteS
With all the force of his character,
the high as we'll as the low, the rich
rs well as the man with an empty
purse. In the circumstance above re-
ferred to, he behaved like q man and a
true patriot. He stood like the rocks
Of Gibraltar, bold and fearless, be-
cause he felt that he was in the right.
We are prouder than ever that we
live in Mississippi, when we see un-
der such trying circumstances, such
men in office standing fearlesSly for her
good name. We are glad to know that
the trouble. so far as it is personal be-
tween Brewer and the gentleman in
question, has been amicably adjusted.

How is This?

The esteemed CarrOlltOn COnServa-
tive insists that Senator Money will
be a candidate for his W succession.
The Enterprise doesn't believe it. Be
this as it may, however, Governor
Vardaman will be in the race-and
the man who defeats him will be Sen
at0r. Greenwood Enterprise.
From the above, we would judge
shat Governor Vardaman will not side
track for Senator Money or anyone
else. From the close fellowship eX-
isting among these gentlemen in the
last campaign, we conclude that they
have misunderstood each other.
