MERGER
UNDER WAY
HARTMAN GANG GRABS
THE ILLINOIS CENTRAL

New York. Feb. 1.-The Herald to-
morrow will say:
1T was learned in this city yester-
day that there are many indications
that the Illinois Central railway has
been acquired by interests identified
with the Hartman party. 1t has been
known for some time that the Illinois
Central holdings In the hands of this
party has been figured as high as l6O,-
600 shares of a par value of $4,000
600. According to statements made
by persons who are in a position TO
inspect the transfer books of the llli-
nois Central, there Is evidence there
that goes far toward confirming the
story of the merger.
1t Is said the Union Pacific some
time ago took over all the Illinois
Central stock owned by the Railroad
Securities company, a New Jersey
corporation organized by the Harri-
man interests for the purpose OF own
ing and holding Illinois Central shares.
The records show that this company
had acquired at least $4,000 shares Of
this stock and this, added to the stock
already In the hands of the Union
Pacific would make that road az pres
ent the holder of at least 100000
shares OF the par value Of $4,000, 900.
According to the Wall street theory
this stock has been accumulated but
has not yet been transferred to any
corporation and still stands In the
names of individuals.

Scranton, Pa, Feb. 4.-On being
shown the Mahanoy City dispatch to
the effect that all colliers in the an

"A story that gains credence here Is

STABLE VENTILATION.
A Plain Talk by Pref. King on This
All-Inportant Subject-What
tine Animals Mead.

An average well-ted man eats daily
(breathes) "a pounds of air; horse.
272 pounds: a COW, 22i pounds; pig.
SO pounds; sheep, IS pounds and
hen two pounds. These are amounts
very much greater than are required
of both drink and solid materials COM
bined. In the case of the cow, about
double the weight of all other mate
rails combined are required to sustain
life and perform the bodily functions.
To contain the daily air ration of a
man requires bin of eight feet on
every edge: to hold that of a horse,
one 10 feet; that of cow, IA feet; that
of pig, ten feet; that for sheep,
nine feet, and that 70, hen, one
three feet on every edge. If this amount
of air had to be pumped from the well.
as water is drawn, it would require the
pumping each day, for a single aver
age man. OF some 1,275 full pals such

FOR DAIRY COWS.
Some Important Things About the
Feeding stuffs and the Proper
Rations

This was the subject of a very inter-
esting talk by Hugh C. Van Pelt. of
Columbus, at the late meeting of the
Ohio Live Stock association. Mr.. Van
Pelt conducted the feeding of the Jer-
sey herd in the famous dairy test at
the Louisiana Purchase exposition. He
said, in brief:
The capacity for short. high pres nrc
production is not to be desired so u,irh
as persistency The latter Is the money
making feature. The lorg time test is
the only reliable one, One year and
five year tests not infrequent. Short
time tests iniure more cows than any
other cause. The first consideration is
the se'ecticn of feed sufrs. The COW
should be in strong and neshy con-
dition at the beginning of the test.
There is no danger of milk fever now
with the air treatment. He feeds
rilace, roots, bran. etc, during the
rest period. During tie first 30 days
rfter parturition watcA the COW and
be careful in feeding A narrow ra.
ton during the first 30 days should
bring the COW to her maximum

ration fer one period is not always a
balanced ration for another. Each cow

is often good plan. Oil meal is more
expensive than gluten meal, etc, be-
cause it costs more and Is too con-
centrated. 1t Is possible to encourage
persistency as shown by St. Louis
test.
Cut hay has more value than any
other food that can be supplied. One.
third bulk of ration consists of hay in
one-quarter-inch lengths and one-third
of the grain is removed, 1t is not the
feeding value that counts in such
cases. but peculiar mechanical value
1t tightens and lposens the ration and
makes it more available to assimila-
ton. The digestive apparatus gives
way first and must be carefully
watched. The same quantity of milk
may be obtained with two to five
pounds less grain per day when cut
hay is fed. The cut hay should be
steamed to facilitate mixing with the
grain and to increase its palatability
Silage will hardly take the place of cut
hay, as with it more grain passes
through the system undigested. Less
silage is needed when cut hay Is fed
ne-half-inch lengths are just as good
as one-fourth inch. Steaming ant
scalding hay makes It aromatic and ap
petizing.

DENVER MARKETS

Denver Union Stock Yards, April Is.
The supply Of cattle here was very
light last week and bulk of them came
during the first few days. They con
sisted largely of beef steers and as
packers bought literally the proceed
ing week the demand was not heavy
and prices weak to lower. Later in the
week few steers arrived ana there was
a firmer tone to the trade and at the
close values on good beef steers were
a little stronger than at the opening.
The best here brought $40 with most
of the business done from this down to
s4.OO. Cows were rather scarce but
the demand light. There is little ma
terial change in quotations from a
week ago. Fancy cows sold up to
$500 with others at $3.S5. but few
landed above S3.70. Bulk of the better
killing grades went at $2.S5 to $50.
Bulls were scarce and steady with a
good demand. Veals are hardiy as firm
as week ago on account of big de-
clines at all eastern markets, but there
is good demand here for choice ones.
Feeder and stocker supply was light
and market quiet. The demand was
limited for anything except the very
choice grades. The good ones are
pretty close to steady but common stun
is lower than week ago. Country de
mand was limited and dealers were
slow to load up heavily as the eastern
demand was reported light.
A very good trade is looked for this
week as the Lenten season is now over
and dealers are anticipating a better
demand.
The hog supply was very fair but
not nearly as heavy as the two weeks
preceding. Demand was good and
market active, as packers had chance
to get caught up in their killing and
are taking all the hogs that come.
Prices advanced about "A quarter dur
ing the week and closed at the high
point for many months. tops now sell
ing at $3.50.
Sheep receipts were fair but offer
ings rather limited. Good ewes were
wanted and sold at strong prices, best
bringing S5.25, the high price paid here
for some time. The demand for ewes
is better than the supply. Lambs are
quiet and little material change in con
ditionS.

FARM NOTES.

Mulching of land should be more
generally practiced.
man should have cool judgment to
run gasoline engine properly.
1t does not pay to have the pastures
fed too closely, as that produces thin
sod.
An acre of potatoes well cultivated
is more profitable than two acres half
neglected.
No practical farmer can succeed
when the entire spirit of the family
is for fun and easy living.
A thin sod in the pasture means that
the grass is drawing plant food only
from the soil near the surface.
Kentucky blue grass and Canadian
blue grass make a good mixture for
pasturage, as they mature at different
times.
