FEEDING STOCK

The secret of safely feeding cotton
seed meal to hogs lies In the prepara-
ton Of the meal. The method Of pre-
pairing Is to thoroughly ferment the
cottonseed meal and then feed one
part of cottonseed meal to two parts
Of ground grain in very thin slop, all
they will eat.
Ration For Brood Mare.
While corn fodder will be found to
be good roughage and superior to timo-
thy hay for the brood mare, corn, If
fed at all, should be in connection
with bran so that plenty of protein
will be provided and a better balanced
ration secured. Light work is much
better than idleness,, but If 1t cannot
be provided the mare should be given
plenty Of exercise In an open yard
each day. Oats lead all other grains as
a food for the brood mare, and wher-
ever they are available should be fed
as a part of the ration at least. II
bran is not made q part of the ration
an occasional mash will prove bene-
fetal in lessening the danger Of con-
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Alfalfa Silage For Beef.
The writer has made some alfalfa
silage and found that steers relish It
exceedingly, but he had too little to
make any test Of its fattening powers,
what he made being accidentally made
in stack. says ]. E. Wing in Breeders
Gazette. He has seen first rate alfalfa
silage fed to dairy cows in California.
and they thrived on the ration, with
some crushed barley as grain. The
Kansas experiment station has made
alfalfa silage and reports it to be the
cheapest silage made, comparing it
with corn and other substances.
Teaching Small Pigs to Eat.
Be sure the pigs have a trough for
themselves that cannot be reached by
the mother or the other hogs. It
teaches them to eat and prevents any
shrinkage during weaving. 1t is a
self weaver.
Cottonseed Meal Hardens Pork.
The somewhat unexpected PROPOSE
ton that firm pork is made with the
help of cottonseed meal appears to be
indicated by facts reported from the
Texas experiment station. A lot Of
hogs fed cottonseed meal seems to have
furnished harder pork than lots fed
corn. A mixture Of corn chops and
cottonseed meal made firm pork.
A Bone Producer.
Alfalfa Is Of special value as a
developer and producer Of bone In
young and growing hogs. Besides be-
ing rich in protein and mineral matter
alfalfa is bulky. which Is a very de-
sirable quality where young animals
are being forced during the bone form
| ing period.

One of the local theories advanced
as to the cause of the phenomenon Is
that it is caused by some chemical
action similar TO the process used in
the manufacture of artificial ice. An
other reasonable theory is that there
might be large ice caves beneath the
surface through which come the cold
draughts which freeze the ground. Mr..

THE SMALL COUNTIES ARE TO DICTATE

The republican state convention will
probably be called to meet at Tacoma
in September, and an apportionment of
delegates made on the plan recon-
mended by Lieutenant Governor c. E.
Coon and T. D. Rockwell, chairman of
the state tax commission. This is a
policy of granting four delegates at
large to each county and basing the
rest of the apportionment on the vote
cast for Roosevelt, is the report that
comes from Seattle.
A complete canvass of the state by
republican politicians in favor Of the
COon-Rockwell program has shown a
big majority which will vote for this
apportionment. Both Lieutenant-G Gov
ernor Coon and Mr.. Rockwell are salts
fled their apportionment can be put
through at the state committee meet
ing to be held in Seattle May %.
The eastern Washington counties,
which cut Mead deeply, are all in favor
of basing the representation on the
Roosevelt vote. The smaller counties in
western Washington, eager to reduce
the vote of the big districts, want this
program to go through. The combined
| votes of these counties will be suffice
| lent to adopt the Coon Rockwell ap-
portionment.
Those politicians urging this program
are citing Doc Hare's declaration in
the committee of four years ago when
he served notice on King, Pierce and
Spokane that in the state committee
Franklin had just as much a voice
as King. This is a declaration that the
small counties propose to dictate in
the coming gathering.
Tacomas chances for the convention
are brightest, singularly enough, be-
cause the town is small. 1t is insisted
there are not more than two conven-
ton hotels in Tacoma, while in Seattle
the number Of good houses is so large
that a convention would scatter it's
/ delegates throughout the city.
Eastern Washington will have two Or
three candidates for the convention, but
politicians are beginning to figure the
coming republican gathering a ratifica-
| ton meeting. The contestants for a
state convention really want session
that will be prolonged and full Of in
terest. For that reason it is pretty GER
! tain eastern Washington will give way
to Tacoma and make a strong play for
the convention of 1908. If Tacoma. al

n. |. Jewell Discovers Mine Of Ice
On His Place on Clearwater.
lie was PROSPECTING FOR WATER
DUG HOLE SIX FEET DEEP AND
HAD TO GIVE UP WORK ON
ACCOUNT OF COLD.

Last summer w. L. Jewell, who has
a ranch across the Clearwater river
from Kamiah made an unusual dis
covery, which has created much inter-
est in this community, states a Kamlan
correspondent of the Lewiston Tribune.
At the foot of bluff Of lava formation
he started to dig for water and at a
depth Of two feet encountered hard
frozen ground This astonished him,
for it was in July and the thermometer
registered 80 degrees in the shade, and
the spot is exposed to the direct rays
of the sun all day.
Slide or shell rock was scattered all
through the soil and the whole mass
was frozen as if exposed to extreme
cold for months.
Mr.. Jewell continued the hole down
about six feet and had to give up the
lob on account of the hardness Of the
frozen stuff.
The ice seems to be of unusual cold
ness and stands a great deal more
heat that ordinary ice. In crevices Is
found clear, pure ice, and last July
Mr.. Jewell dug out about 20 pounds,
put it into a sack and carried it to
Kamiah. Although it was a very hot
day the ice had not yet begun to melt
upon his arrival, but had frozen to the
sack instead.
Sheet of Ice Formed.
C. ]. johnson and Baxter Renshaw
were over to the place one of the
hottest days last summer, and Mr..
Johnson says it was impossible to stay
in the hole, and in the morning a sheet
two inches thick covered the bucket,
and at the same time tomatoes were
ripening only a short distance away.
There are small, open crevices in the
ground through which at times come
draughts of air that almost blow per-
sons hat off, and the breeze is intensely
cold, more so than any winter wind
ever experienced.
Two weeks ago several Kamiah bust
ness men visited the place. During
the winter the hole had filled up with
slide rock and now it is only about
three feet deep, but as soon as per-
son steps into it, frosty cool effect
is felt. There was still ice standing
out in the sunlight and the sides of the
hole, almost to the top, and the bottom
were a solid frozen mass, and strange
to say, many spring flowers were
blooming around the spring. A match
was struck and held near the crevices

A DREAM.

How cometh it that ye may not
come by the water i'm the reservoir? is
it not because ye have no money? And
why have ye no money? is it not be-
cause ye receive one-half for every foot
that ye bring to the reservoir but must
render double for every foot you take
out SO the capitalists may have their
profits? See ye not how by this means
the reservoirs must overflow, being
filed by that ye lack and made to re-
bound out of your emptiness? See We
not that the harder ye toll and the
more dilligent ye seek and bring the
water the worse and not the better it
shall be for you by reason of the profit?n
Aud after this manner spoke the
agitators, for many days, unto the peo-
pie and none needed them, but after a
time the people harkened, and they
answered and said unto the agitators:
ssYe say truth. 1t is because of the
capitalists and their profit that we
want; seeing that by reason of them
and their profits we may by 10 means
come by the fruits of our labor. That
our labor is in vain, and the more we
toll to fill the reservoir the sooner doth
| it overflow and we receive nothing
because there is too much, according
to the words of the soothsayers. But
behold the capitalists are hard men
and their tender mercies are cruel. tell
us if ye know any way Whereby we
may deliver ourselves out of our bond
age unto them, but if We know of NO
certain way of deliverance we beseecl.
you to hold your peace and let us alone
that we may forget our misery.n The
agitators answered and said: 1--WE know
a way.n The people said: deceive lis
not, for this thing hath been from the
beginning and hath found no way o1
deliverence until now though many
have sought it carefully with tears.
but if you know way speak unto Us
quickly.n
Then the agitators spake unto the peo.
fple of the way and said: Behold, what
need have ye at all of the capitalists
that ye should yield them profits on
your labor? What great things do they
that you render them this tributeS
Now, it is only because they do order
you in bands and lead you out and in
and set your task, and afterward rive
you little of the water that YOU YOUR
selves have brought and not fhev.

vidlng of your tasks. 80 shall We have
no need of the capitalist and no more
yield to them any profit, but all The
fruits of your labor shall We have. as
brothers, every one having the same.
and go shall the reservoirs never over
flow until every man has plenty aud
would not wag the tongue for more.
Afterwards shall we, with the overflow,
make pleasant fountains and fish ponds
to delight yourselves withall even as
did the capitalists but these shall he
for the delight of all.n And the peo-
pie answered and said: "How shall we
20 about to do these things, for it
seemeth good to us.u And theSagi-
tators answered: "Cboose We diserete
men to go in and out before you and to
marshal your bands and order your
labor and these men shall be as the
capitalists excepting that they are your
brethren and officers who do your will,
and they shall not take any profit but
every one share equal with the others
that there may be no masters or SER
wants among you, but brethren only.
And from time to time rs We shall see
fit, We shall choose other discrete men
in place of the first to order tile labor.n
The people hardened for the thing
seemed very good TO them, likewise il
seemed not T. hard thing, aud with one
voice.they cried out, $50 let it be as we
have said.V
The capitalists heard the noise OF the
shouting and what the people said and
the soothsayers heard il also, likewise
the false priests and mighty men of
war who were I. defense TO the capital
lists, and when they heard they
trembled exceedingly so that their
knees smote together and they said
one to another, ''it is the end of us.n
of the Living God who would not
for the capitalists but had
compassion on the people, and when
they heard TIE shouting of the people
and what they said they rcjoiced with
exceeding great joy and gave thanks
to God because of deliverance.
And the people went and did all the
things that the agitators had told
them to do, and it came to pass as the
agitators had said, even according to
all of their words, and there was no
more suffering in the land, neither
any that were ahungered or naked or
cold, nor any manner of want. Every
one said unto his fellow, ''my BROTHER"
and every woman said unto her COM
panion, my sister, And so were
they with one another as brethren and
sisters which do dwell together in
unity and the blessings of God rested
upon their land forever.

In setting out an orchard this spring
the matter of choosing trees which
have the habit Of cross-fertilizing each
other should not be overlooked. This
is an important subject that most
planters do not seem to understand at
all. We once saw an orchard of 5000
Kieffer pear trees in Kansas which
proved great disappointment to the
planter. 1t was planted entirely with
the one variety which is notably de-
fective in fertilizing its own bloom.
Another man had 225 varieties of pears
in bearing but was careful to SO inter-
mingle them in planting, that cross
pollination was effective. Peter Young
ers of Geneva, Nebraska, once planted
an orchard with four rows of Ben
Davis and six of Winesap and found
that the contiguous rows of Winesap
and Ben Davis were more productive
than the more distant rows. If the
weather is sunny and favorable at
blooming time pollination may take
place at considerable distance but if the
weather is misty, damp or rainy with
northeasterly winds pollination will
take place only on contiguous trees
and will be seriously lessened on those.
The use of bees is urged to assist in the
work of pollination and they generally
earn their salary in this way. We are
usually quite fortunate in this country
in escaping rains and wind storms al
the blooming period. = Denver Field

mixed with one quart Of sweet milk;
mix well and add five well beaten eggs,
reserving the whites of two. Stir all
well and pour into a pudding pan and
bake about an hour. Make a frosting
with the whites of the two eggs, beat

pudding is taken from the oven, spread
ON very thick covering of currant
jelly and ON top of this put all the
