The BIG MOsc ,olW, Dit cll.


IA Messrs. . ohm Frank Of Leroy, w
H. Miller Of Freeborn and John Berg
son, london, who have been named as
viewers ID the Geneva M MoscoW Rice
land ditch, met here w Wednesday morn
ing and took up the work before them.
In. the afternoon they went out to Hay
ward and viewed the work on the Mel
s. son ditch and studied conditions and
what effect draining will probably have
on land. They will then go to the part
OF this and Mower counties to be af-
fected by the proposed Improvement
and will look into the questions that
are to be submitted to them for their
conside deration. There is a vast amount
ofland affected By the ditch as pro-
posed and the cost is estimated by the
engineer at $175, 900, certainly a large
sum TO be expended by the county.
The price OF the land affected will be
largely increased and the result be a
large increase Of the taxable valuation

the ration. The V shaped trough is
not we'll adapted for granting lambs
following weaving and should not be
used.
The diagram herewith shows a de-
sign of granting trough we have
adopted and used for many years with
excellent results. The trough may be
made any length desired. The end
piece is made out of a 2x12 inch
plank, followed in the center to light
en- the weight of the rack The bot
tom and side pieces are made of three
fourths inch material. The Stats are
lath nailed six inches apart. The
trough from the ground up is six
inches high, and the rack 26 inches
high.
The great advantage of this rack
is that the lambs cannot crowd and
the grain is put before them in an
acceptable condition for feeding.

FEED MORE ROOTS.
Stock Will Keep in Better Appetite
When Supplied with This Ration,

In the United States cattle feeders
have gotten out of the habit of feed
ing roots to cattle, because of the
abundance. of corn and corn fodder
The chemist has also assisted in this
movement by showing that the nutri.
tive value of roots is not great as
compared with the nutritive value of
the grains. But roots have value
greater than that shown by the nu-
trients as determined iby analysis.
There is digestive value in the acids
and in the bulk that no chemical an
alysis will determine. Roots have a
stimulating effect in that they please
the appetite.
Some roots are still fed to cattle
in the eastern states, where the Gus
tom began far back in the early set
tlement of the country and has per-
sisted. Two reasons are found for
this. One, the early settlers were
from England, where root feeding was
common; two, the growing of corn is
a more difficult matter than in the
west, where the level fields make. the
use of machinery possible. In New
England roots are still raised quite
extensively for stock feeding.
Some object to the feeding of tur-
nips to dairy COWS, but this objection
is not to be met with in the feeding
of beef cattle and of dry dairy cows
Doubtless the corn and corn fodder
will be more effective when fed with
roots than fed without roots Now
that the price of corn has risen to
such height, it is necessary that it's
feeding should be made as effective as
possible. ~
With the increasing price of land it
becomes necessary to make every
acre produce as much feed as possible.
A very great tonnage of beets or tur-
nips can be grown on an acre Iof land
if the soil be properly enriched and
properly titled, says Farmers Review.
The tops as well as the roots can be
fed to beef cattle. The succulent
character of the roots insures their
complete digestion by the cattle.
Mangel wurzels are particularly
adapted to feeding, because they are
relished by the cattle and can be
grown in large quantities.

\ GRAIN ROUGH FOR LAMBS.

When lambs are9Sfed grain in an
