Crack Military Organizations

Generous response is being made
by military schools and crack mill
tary bodies to the invitation of the
jamestown Exposition to partici-
nate in the military exercises at the
great historical celebration to be
held by Hampton. Roads near Nor
folk in 1907.
Among the Virginia military
schools and Hoge Memorial Mill
tary Academy Of Blackstone, and
the Va. Polytechnic Institute OF
Blacksburg, were the first to re-
spond. All the detatcllments from
military schools will be encamped
with other military bodies in the
great military encampment.
The Hoge Memorial Military
Academy will send detachment
of 100 cadets, who will visit the
Exposition during the first week
of May, under the command ofCoI.
e b Eishburne. formerly an army
officer. The cadets will present a
fine appearance in their plain gray
uniform, similar to those worn by
tn cadets Of the q S. Military
Academy, at West Point. The
School is one of the most popular
military schools IN va, and has a
high reputation for military train
ing and scholarship.
The Va. Polytechnic lnstitnte,of
which J. M. Mcbride is President
has an attendance of over 600 stu
dents and lis well trained cadet ba-
talon has an enviable reputation
for splendid martial bearing and
precision in all military mano"nvr-
es. Its uniform is gray and OF
plain design. The date of attend
ance will be fixed by the authori-
ties of the school upon the arrival
of the new commandant, to be de.
tailed blythe War Department at
an early date.
The Battalion Of the Richmond
Light Infantry Blues, who have al
so announced their intention to WIS.,
it the exposition, is one.of thu most
famous military organizations in
the country. They will come to
the Exposition some time next
summer, under the command OF
Major Cheatwood, and in their
brilliant, snowy uniforms, cannot
fail to make fine impression OH
all who see them on parade.

time an old friend of mine started
a paper way down South and sent
a copy to ME and subscribed just
to encourage him and after while
it published an order to sell a lot
at public auction. So | inquired
about the lot and tolda friend to
run it up to $50. He bid off the
lot at $50 and it sold in less than
month for $500, so | made S6(
clear BIZ taking the paper.
My father told me that when he
was a young man he saw notice
In a paper that q school teacher
was wanted away off in distant

Selection and Feeding Calves.

The Rural World says that calves
selected for making baby beef must
first have good constitutions; that
when they come most feeders advise
letting them run with their dams for
six or seven months. From weaving
time until ready for market they ara
treated as steers, though when wean-
ed they must know how to eat she'll
ed corn, oats, bran, oil meal, and all
foods that will make good calf.
This baby beef calf must be fed all
he will eat and he must be a good
eater; yet he must be fed so that his
appetite is never satiated hence he
must have variety of foods. In corn
regions, corn will be the principal
food, but there are also many varie-
ties of grass and clover hay. also
grains; and the purchase Of oil meal
in moderation may pay in the making
of baby beef. This, as all other farm
problems, must be conducted in &C
cord with environment, but If right
ly understood, the raising Of baby
beef should be a profitable branch OF
farming.

The Sleeps Stomach.

In their capacity to consume food
sheep resemble cattle. They have four
stomachs, one connected with anoth-
e., the paunch, or first, being very
capacious, so that large quantities Of
bulky food like hay can be digestea
and assimilated. 1t is customary to
figure that eight or ten average sized
sheep will consume as much as one
two-year-old steer. The proportion or
roughnsss to grain most suitable for
fattening sheep is about the same as
for cattle, although sheep will fatten
upon a somewhat larger proportion OF
hay. They grind their food much more
thoroughly than do cattle, thus maxi
ing 1t possible to feed grain without
first grinding or soaking it.

Horse Talk.

If horses are irregularly fed, they
often get in the habit of paving in
the stable.
Feed them segularly, and il not
driven or used each day. turn them
in a yard to exercise.
Give all horses that are not turn.
ed in pasture, piece of sod--roots
earth and all. Put it in the mang-
ers. For some reason they crave
such food.
The other day driving horse
after a drive in the ram, began eat
ing. the mud off his feet. A mute
appeal for what nature cr"ved.
Many young horses are injured
by over work, and the owners new
er suspect the cause of the injury Z
The muscles and ligaments that
hold the joints together are sof'
and tender, and cannot stard much
continuous strain without injury.
A large colt put at work when
three years old is full of spirit, and
| il allowed to do all he IS willing &c
do. will be able to do much less a.
4 years Of age.
If a colts ankles begin to swell
and the ligaments begin to thicker
90 slow and give him less work, Oh
there will be permanent injury.
A colt overworked at three years
of age will be unsonnd by the time
be- is six or seven. If he is sount
at eight or nine he will remain so.
A colt may be carefully driven
or worked all the time after he II
two wears old without harm, blu
good sound judgement and common
sense must be used,
Modern work on the farm ant
road every day is much better thar
to use by fits and start. The WORK
or exercise should be regular-mns
be, for best results.
Many farmers are disappointed
in the way their colts turn out
when it is caused by their owl
want of common sense in hand
ling.
1t is a good plan to feed all colt
and young horses plenty of whea
bran. 1t strengthens the bone
and joints.
Watch the collars and sac tina
they do not get too large or to
small.
"a small collar will choke a hors
and often causes baking. One to
large will cause sore breasts.

, GRINDING CORN FOR STOCK.
Wisconsin Experiment Station Re.
suits Show a Saving of 500 Pct.

There is much difference Of opinion
among practical feeders as to wheth-
err it pays to grind feed for steers,
says the Farmers Tribune. Some or
the most successful feeders feed
ground corn to their cattle during the
last half Of the feeding period and con-
slider 1t very profitable, On the other
hand, there are feeders who fatten
their cattle wholly on ear or shelled
corn, who are just as much opposed
to grinding corn for steers as those
who feed ground feed are in favor or
their method of feeding. When one
comes to inquire of practical feeders,
It is, therefore, difficult matter to
arrive at a definite conclusion as to
whether 1t pays to grind feed or
whether it is more economical to feed
whole corn.
This discrepancy in practice and
opinion is partially due to local con-
ditions and partly to the fact that
comparatively few practical men ever
make any pretenseS at testing the mat
ter with any degree of accuracy In
other words, many of them jump at
conclusions. Whenever corn Is cheap,
when 1t can be purchased for from 20
to 80 cents bushel, it is a question
indeed whether it will pay to grind 1t
for steers. We believe, however, that
1t would still pay to grind such corn
| for hogs, for young calves and for
young colts. Where a person owns
| his own grinding outfit, he can grind
his feed at cost of from one to two
cents per bushel. If, on the other
| hand, he has to haul his grain to a
mill at some distance, the cost will
be much higher 1t will vary any
where between four to seven cents
| per bushel. If person uses a con-
siderable amount of feed he cannot,
in our opinion, afford to be without
a grinder and gasoline engine. The
engine can be used for great many
other things on the farm in addition.
| The Wisconsin station, a few
years ago, found a saving OF
from s to 20 per cent. from grinding
corn for pork production, as an av-
erage of four trials in which 70 pigs
were used.
Experience shows that whole corn
is better than ground corn to
be fed to steers during the first part
of the feeding period. Later on it is
best to chop the IN or crush them.

Hicks Forecasts for August

A Reactionary Storm period is
central on August the End, Bird and
4th. embracing the full moon at a
total eclipse node on the 4th. This
period will eliminate, within forty
eight hours of noon on the 4th, in
very marked electrical and seismic
perturbations.
A regular storm period lies be-
tween the 9TH and 18th. 1t is GEN.
trail on the 9th and will eliminate
from the 9Th to the 18th. Great
increase Of temperature, with cor
responding fall of the barometer,
will pass like wave from west to
east during this period A FRO.
Ionged threatening state OF the
weather will be very natural, with
increased and positive reactionary
storms on the 18th, 10Th and 18th.
\ rapid, but temporary rise of the
barometer will follow these storms,
with brief respite from Aug. heat.
A regular storm period runs from
the 18th TO 23d. being at the Gull
mination of the Mercury period,
and under. the growing influence
of the autumnal equinox. The
new moon at solar eclipse node
also falls on the 10Th. The indica-
tons are that the heaviest and
most general storms in August will
occur during and&xt to Sunday
the 10th to WednesdSsathe 22nd.
We will name the goth ana 2lst AS
the crisis.
A reationary storm period is cen
trial on the %, Goth and 9th, with
the moon in perigee, at first quar-.
ter and extreme south declinatiOn.
If equatorial storms originate in
the south seas during the period
10Th to 23d-a thing most proba.
ble-under the growing pressure
of the autumnal equinox these dis
turbances will live and grow aS
they advance northward, most like
ly reaching the regions of the gulf
Of Mexico about Friday the gath
to Tuesday the 28th. The last
storm period for the month. 10Th
| to 28th, will culminate in higher
tenn perature, low barometer, clondl.
ness and more or less storms and
rain over the coHltry in general.

There is no need worrying along
in discomfort, because of a disor-
dered digestion. Get a bottle OF
Kodol for Dyspepsia, and see what
it will do for you. Kodol not on
ly digests what you eat and gives
that tired stomach a needed rest,
but is corrective of the greatest
efficiency. Kodol relieves indiges,
ton, dyspepsia, Palpitation of the
heart, hatulence, and sour stomach
Kodol will make your stomach
young and healthy again. You will
worry just in the proportion that
your stomach worries you. Worry
means the loss of ability to dc
your best. Worry is to be avoided
at all times. Kodol will take the
worry out of yoAr stomach. Sole
