HOW THE BOY GOT THERE.

Farm Journal: Sometimes boys Won
der how they can get a start In the
world. Here is a true story of how one
boy began.
A neighbor had a lot of cows to milk.
This boy hurried around and MIXED
his part of the home dairy. then he
skipped down 10 the neighbours and
MIXED five or six more cows, every
night and, morning. For his he re-
ceived a penny for each cow.
These pennies ne put away in his
bank. What was his bank2 Just an
empty match box. How many times a
day did he get that box down and fig
ure up his account? / don't know: try

When the hoy had $40 he bought a
pair of boots, a geography and some
other school hooks, and went at ii TO
learn all he could that winter. This
plan he stuck to. a number OF years.
The bank got full and he grew strong

Then he vent out and bought a farm
OF his own.
Folks found out what was in that
young man, They made him go to the
state legislature and do a lot OF other
work for them. But he was always
glad to get back to the farm. and he

Quick Fattening Of Steers.
Corn and Clover Hay the Very Best Feed Say. H. W. Mumford.

There Is no single factor involved in
the ~fattening OF steers that is of great
er importance than that of how best
to utilize the most available feeds
corn aud clover hay. 1t would be i'm
possible TO investigate every method
and combination In which these feeds
might be used. A sufficient number OF
them have, however, been tested on an
extensive scale at the Illinois expert
ment station TO establish certain I'M
deriving principles in the preparation
n use OF these foods and the bearing
or these methods upon the extent,
economy and quality of production.
Wherever corn may be successfully
grown there are few. IL any, farm crops
that viii return TO the farmer as many
dollars per acre for the use of his land
as corn. Therefore, no matter whether
the corn is sold as such or as beef,
mutton. pork or horse flesh, one of the
great questions for the a~griculturalist
Is the growing. harvesting and market
Ing of corn 10 the best advantage.
1 have sometimes thought that IL
farmers, where the introduction of nov
elites n special farm crops have been
agitated in recent years, had been as
jealous in studying old Indian corn. its
culture and profitable uses, as they
have these special crops, they YOU
at least have been more successful corn
rover
IL cannot be said that Ii has been
clearly demonstrated that the corn crop
~tincluding both grain and roughage) is
az efficient for beef production without
AZ with a heterogeneous supplement of
some sort. There has been a growing
belief that where the corn crop is sup
~plemented with a roughage, that the
use OF a heterogeneous roughage, such as
clover or alfalfa hay. is followed with
better results than the use of a rough
age relatively low In its content of ni-
trogen. This impression has become es-
tablished because it is borne out by
experiment and the experience of a
large number of successful cattle feed
ers.
Three reasons for this fact may be
stated: First, that in itself corn, with
its own ~roughage, is a highly carbon
llaceous feed INT relatively low in it's
nitrogen content. Hence. If other feeds
are used as supplements they should
be OF such composition as to properly
balance the ration to meet the demands
of the animal body. Second, that, barr
ins corn stover. wheat and oats straw,
fouglIage rich in nitrogen are relative
ly cheaper than those poor in nitrogen,

NO MONEY FOR
CAPITOL PLANS

SION CANNOT PAY ARCHITECTS.
NO PROVISION IN LAW
States Legal Advisor Tells Treasur.
err That Statute Enacted Two
Years Ago Does Not Contain Au-
thorization of Payment for Plans
for New Building.
Madison March II


Attorney General Sturdevant yester-
day morning gave out an opinion
that the capitol commission was not
authorized to issue warrants on the
state treasury to pay the architects
for the new capitol. The opinion is
ia response 20 letter from State
Treasurer Kempf. He says in part
Il am unable in any of these sever.
al provisions TO find any authority
which empowers the commissioners
to cause money to be paid out of the
appropriation provided for by the act
for the services of architects in pro
viding plans and specifications for a
new capitol building.
"The intent of the legislature, as APP
pears from the express words OF the
act was to provide additional room
Tor two specified purposes. The adj
ditional room contemplated must be
in addition to some other room al
ready provided. The plan TO be
adopted is for the purpose of making
changes necessary, to furnish the
needed accommodations specified
These additions are stated to be for
the state law library and the supreme
judicial department.
THAT it was not contemplated that
the plans for additional room or the
changes for needed accommodation
should include plans and specifica-
tons for a new capitol building, is
made certain by the requirement in
section 2 of the act that such changes
shall be made harmonious with the
present capitol building"
Il am convinced" continues the at
torney general, that the legislature
did not consider the act to authorize
the securing of plans for NV CAPT
toll building for the reason that the
learned gentlemen who compose the
commission have otherwise construct
ed the act.
~ wish you to understand that, in
giving this opinion, am not passing
on the question as to whether the
commission has exceeded its power
in procuring plans: That is a ques-
ton of fact. and not one of law and
not submitted to me in your question
''If the plans and specifications pro
cured by the commission We're neces-
sarily procured for the purpose of so
making the changes in the present
capitol harmonious with and adapta-
BILE to any modification of the present
building, which may be required by
the future needs of the state govern
ment. the warrants are legal and
should be paid.
81 simply hold that the act does not
authorize payment for plans and spe-
cifications for a new capitol building"
