STOCK FEED IN georgia.
Cowpeas in the Field Can BE Saved
to Great Advantages

Despite the fact that large corn
crop is being made in Georgia, there
will be scarcity of feed in searly all
lines. have learned from tsre inside
that high prices can be expected for
cottonseed products. This due to
the fact that the food is becosoing rec
ognized as one of the leadS1g dairy
foods of the country and it bag value
higher than has been given il
There never was a period IL the his.
tory of the western grain neen when
oats were bringing such Prices as
they are now selling for in Che grain
fields. Corn is higher than it usually
is at this season of the year, and the
demand is stronger than at the height
of the season. The hay crop is bring
ing springtime prices and everything
points to a season of high price for
all stuff needed on the farm next sea-
son.
From these facts it is an easy mat,
ter to figure out that there will be but
little profit for the cotton farmer, even
with fair crops and high prices, il he
fails to grow things needed at home.
At this season of the year there are
numberless opportunities open for the
average farmer to save lot more
feed than usual If some extra care is
taken in the work.
The coWpeas in the cornfield can be
IN I'd Sond
stacked away so that they will be good
food during the early part of winter
By this method the main: food crop
can be saved until late in the season.
There is nothing that will give better
results in saving the regular food sup
ply than the hay crop, whick is usually
allowed to go to waste.
The mixed foods which have gained
such popularity in the states will here.
after have to conform to the pure food
laws of Georgia and an inspection tax
will have to be paid. While this will
be regarded in a sense as expensive.
still it will be of much benefit to the
farmer and consumer, as they will be
protected fully against buying worth
less stuff, which, no doubt, has often
been sold as high-grade feed.
The winter grazing crop fs also one
of the greatest things to have around
the average farm. Through the
patches that can be put in the out-of-
the way places stock can be kept in
good condition at little cost and the
cover crop will be very beneficial to
the soil. The early spring feed crops,
meaning those which can be used
early in spring, no matter When plant
ed, are the most valuable OF all crops.
OF these there is nothing. to beat
good oat, planted on we'll prepared
land. The best rule to follAW now Is
to break the land thoroughly and then
lay off the land as though for plant
ing corn, only have the burrows very
close together, say every eight inches,
or almost joining. Sow the seed
broadcast and harrow in. running the
harrow in, running the harrow cross
ways the burrows. If this f. done tho
danger from winter killingIis refuced
to minimum and the crop grows very
much better-J. G.. McAuliffe, in

MouIiinn NV Hard

A writer in one of the poultry jour
nails last year stated that ne had tried
moulting hens by hand; that is. pluck
ing them as you do ducks and geese
He stated the process was harmless to
the hens and caused them to get to
laying earlier in the fall that when ma,
ture did the moulting.
This suggestion opens "a new field
for thought and experiment. It re.
mains for some one to learn just how
to proceed-how to feed previous to
the plueking and when the work can
best be done.
Instead of having feathers strewn
all over the farm they are saved. In.
stead of having the shedding take four
to six weeks of time, the work is done
all at once, an6 the new crop of feath-
ers starts. 1t seems as. though this
may be more than a noYel thing. It
may have value to the poultry men
who want their birds to shed early.
We suggest that some experiment
station take this up and sec iftit has
value.-Successfu Fal ming.

Grain and Grass.

Arrangements are often made with
out thought OF the relation which
grass and green food may have to sue
cess. Running at large over many
acres, and the fowls helping them
selves to grass at all times, the poul,
tryman does not notice that a very
large part of the fowls dairy food, if
not the largest part, consists of green
material. He feeds corn and oats, or
scraps, or table refuse, and contends
that the fowls live on that exclusively,
hence supposes that such food will an
swer when fowls are confined.

DR.. Haynes advises making tea from
cedar boughs for lice and vermin. His
directions for making the tea are as
follows: If you have a fifteen-gallon
iron kettle use it. Fill with finely cut
leaves and water. Boil down one.half.
Use a garden sprinkler and do not fail
to reach every part of the hen house
and nests. Spray ii. among the chick
en- feathers; put 1t everywhere where
mites and vermfn are suspected.

It is found that when charcoal is
added to the food of fattening turkeys
they gain more rapidly. When crowd
ed, a portion of the food Is liable to
ferment in the crop before it passes
into the gizzard. Charcoal absorbs
gases and relieves the acidity, and tc
the property of the charcoal the bene

The city council took up anti-prize

ball rolling.
City hall prophets say action will be
delayed month, so that two more con-
tests may be held before the law goes
into effect; then a law regulating

enacted.
To head off tactics of the San Fran
cisco fighters trust which had planned
to shift future battles to Venice or
Arcadia the Los Angeles solons Will
enact measure cutting out referees
and decisions-hence betting, too-and
thus satisfy all elements. To do more
would simply throw the sport peyond
the city limits.
The Voters league yesterday preclp1-
tated action by causing a resolution to
be presented petitioning for an imme-
diate enactment of a prize fight or
dinance.
The resolution was as follows:
"At the annual meeting of the Voters
league on April 25, 1907, the following
resolution was adopted unanimously:
Resolved, That the Voters league
hereby respectfully petition the honor
able city council to enact Immediately
proper ordinance to prevent in this city

NEW YORK, May 27.-Unless some
thing untoward happens to the lad be-
fore the end of the season, Eddie
Dugan; the lightweight rider who now is
attracting so much attention at the
Metropolitan tracks, will be a formid-
able rival of Marvellous" Miller and
will undoubtedly rank with the best pig
skin artists in the country.
Little Dugan, who can get on the
scales under the S5-pound mark and
never raise the beam, has done some
wonderful riding at Gravesend, and
Davy Johnson, who has been following
the boy in all his mounts, cleaned up
handsomely. On Wednesday of last
week Dugan piloted three live ones
home ahead of his fields, and as the
prices were open the owner of Roseben
had a plethoric bank roll to show for
his days work.
The lad is a member of the celebrated
Dugan family of jockeys, and both of
his brothers, Willie and Johnnie, were
stars of the turf in times gone by. The
present crack of the Dugan clan isjget-

RACKET EXPERTS
WILL COMPETE
Twelve Schools Enter for Annual
Event on Harvard Courts-En-
tries Close Next Thursday
with Secretary

High school and academy racket ex-
perts in the ranks of the county league
players will oppose each other on the
Harvard school courts Saturday, when
the regular annual championship of
the county league is scheduled to oc-
cur. Twelve schools are slated to par
take in the tournament, and as four
events are down for discussion the af-
fair should prove of no little interest.
In addition to the mems singles and
mems doubles there will also be
matches played in women'S singles, and
mixed doubles, and as many of the
scholastic experts know how to swing
their rackets with effect close matches
should result. Miss Brown, conceded
to be the peer of all high school girls
in this section, will be on hand to de-
fend the honor and glory OF Polytech-
mic high and with Kellogg. who will
represent his school in the singles,
should also make a clever showing in
the mixed events.
The only schools which have sent in
a complete list of representatives are
the Los Angeles high and Throop Poly
technic institute of Pasadena. The To-
cal Polytechnic high school and Pasa-
dena have returned partial list, but
when the time for entries closes on
Thursday the others will undoubtedly
Harry Rogers will represent the local
high school in the singles, and with
his brother will take part in the
doubles. Miss Hutton has been decided
on as the standard bearer in the
women's singles and she and Harry
Rogers will compete in the mixed
doubles.
Throop has selected Barker to play
it out in the mems singles, and with
Horrel he will make up the doubles
team. Miss Farley will wear the
Throop colors in the women's singles
and she and Barker will probably strive
to win in the mixed affair.
Hoehring is the only representative
chosen by Pasadena high at this date,
but the other selections will be made
today, when a school tournament will
be held to decide the question. The
others have turned in no entry list to
the secretary of the league. The COM
plete list of schools which will COM
pete is as follows:
Harvard, Throop and the following
high schools: Los Angeles, Pasadena,
Polytechnic, Monrovia, Santa Monica,
Long Beach, Compton, Glendale, Dow
ney and AlhaIlbra.
The tournament will begin Saturday
morning and 1t is expected by those in
charge of the affair that the finals in
all four classes can be played off the
same day. No arrangements have been
made for trophies, but 1t is expected
that the winning schools will be
awarded a cup of some sort.
