Feeding gas .rooa SovvA.


Brood sows should be fed differently
rom those animals intended for fat
,ening purposes. says Professor Ken
nedy of the Iowa station. Corn. Will,
an excellent feed for fattening hogs.
should be used in very moderate
amounts for breeding animals. 1t
should not form more than one-third
Of the ration. This is due to the fact
that corn Is fat and heat producing
feed. The ration of the brood SOW
should be of heterogeneous nature, SO
as to have a cooling effect upon the
system. Sows which have an abun
dance of exercise can withstand more
corn feeding than those that are con
fined to the pens. A ration of shorts
and oats or some gluten feed or any
other feed stuff which is fairly rich x;
nitrogen will give good results.
PROBABLY one Of the best rations will
be mixture of one part corn. one part
shorts and one part oats. In some In
stances bran is used instead Of shorts
for feeding of brood sows. especially
breeding purposes. Oil meal while
used to a considerable extent for breed
ing stock and for fattening hogs. must
be fed with great care to the brool
sow. especially near narrowing time
1t has been known to cause abortion
when fed In considerable quantities
shortly before narrowing time.

FREIGHT RATES.

Since the announcement that the
Pennsylvania and many other rail-
roads controlling lines in the coal
fields would after April adopt a high
er schedule in freight rates, rumor
has it in the Richmond freight offices.
that the Pennsylvania will soon raise
all freight rates.
prominent freight official located
in this city, said yesterday that under
present conditions he did not see but
what such means would be adopted,
as under existing circumstances ex-
penses were mounting the ladder with
leaps and bounds and since the differ
ent states throughout the middle west
were adopting the two cent passenger
rate, the raise in freight rates was
probable as the railroads would have
to protect their earnings.
He also said thatsthe cost of freight
cars and equipment of all kinds was
soaring, making the operating expen-
ses of the road almost double that OF
several years ago.
In addition to the increase in the
cost of equipment, the recent increase
in the wages of all the men on the
system will figure largely upon the
final decision of the directors of the
road Many thousands of dollars was
voluntarily given out to the employees
of the road in the form of wages and
to cover the whole expenses, the
freight rateS-the only visible means
of bringing in additional revenue to
the railroads-will suffer the raise.

Washington, reb. 4.-The time of
both the senate and house this week
will be taken up with appropriation
bills. In the senate the Indian bill is
has the river and harbor bill under
way. Several days will be required
to dispose of each of these measures.
The senate will take up next the army
bill and the house the naval bills.
These four measures will practically
monopolize the time of the two bodies
as there are many points in each over
which there is wide difference of opin-
ion. 1t is expected that the senate
amendments TO the Indian territory
matters will develop debate wnIle the
question of big battleships will be
fought out in the house in connection
with the naval bill.
The house adopted resolution, call
ing on the secretary of commerce and
labor through the bureau Of corpora
tions to investigate the causes of fluc-
tuation in the price of cotton and the
difference in market price of the vari-
GUS grades. The investigation is to
be conducted with the particular OBJ
iect of ascertaining whether or not
uctuations in the prices resulted in
whole or in part from the character
of contracts and deliveries made on
the cotton exchanges dealing in fu-
lures, or is the result of combination
or conspiracy which interferes with
or hinders commerce among the sew
eral states and territories and with
foreign countries.

The dramatization of Harold Nc
Grath's popular novel, THE Man on
the Box" was presented at the Gen.
nett last night 10 an audience which
occupied every available seat. The
manner in which the novel was staged
was most pleasing. In general the
lines of the story were followed and
wnere the stage version did deviate
it was not In manner to detiorate
from the effectiveness of the book.
Those attending were more than
pleased. They we're enthusiastic and
many pronounced it the best comedy
drama that has held the boards at the
local theatre for some time.
With the ease of manner, the sly
suggestiveness of rougishness an all
absorbing personality, Henry E. Dixey
in the leading role, that of Lieut.. Rob
ert Worburton, (the man on the box
was at home, SO much so in fact that
even the most exacting of critics
could find no fault with his rendition

With all due credit to Dixey howev-.
er he was not the whole SNOW" as
every man and woman in the company
carried their parts to perfection and
especially was this so of Marie Nord-
strom the beautiful and accomplished
actress in the role of Elizabeth Annes-
ley. With vivaciousness greatly
resembling Lulu CHASER in the title
role of Dorothy Vernon OF Haddon
Hall, but minus the fiery temper and
crude brusqueness, the actress soon
won warm spot in the hearts of the
audience. She carried with her a
touch of the coquetish. but which how
ever was nevertheless delightful,
while she when occasion demanded
proved her rights to the title of be-
ing called a woman in it's fullest
sense.
