Pleasure and Business Admir-.
ably Blended On Excur-
sion On Str. Fowler.
Trip TO Cairo ut an Early Date
Is Planned.
LABOR UNION LEADERS SPEAK

Pleasure and business were so adj
mirably blended in the river excur-
sion given by the Commercial Club
last evening on the steamer Dick
Fowler, that another trip to Cairo
was arranged, to take place next
week or the week following at the
latest.
Over 200 members of the CONNER
cial Club. and their invited guests
left on the Dick Fowler at O'Clock
last evening and enjoyed the most
pleasant social and business session
the club ever held. The boat went
up the Ohio river as far as Smith.
land, and turned around for the trip
back to Paducah. arriving here at
10:45 O'Clock, in time for the subur-
ban members of the party to catch
the cars for their homes.
On the return trip the social ses-
sion was held. Refreshments were
served in the cabin of the steamer
and a number OF ringing speeches
were made. The speeches rang with
enthusiasm for the club and its work
and one conspicuous result of the
trip, was the addition on the boat, OF
a large number of new names to
the Commercial Club roster.
President Earl Palmer presided
over the business and social sessions
and made the keynote speech OF
the evening. He said that all phases
of the Clubs work is advancing
without friction and with eminent
success. Following President Pal
mer. Mr.. r. l.. Barnett, state organ
izer for the Farmers Union spoke.
Mr.. Barnett said that complete har-
mony exists between the farmers
organization and the Commercik,
Club. The objects of the farmers
organizations, are pacific. he stated,
and nothing but good will come from
their efforts. He thanked the Club
for the invitation they extended to
the Farmers Union to hold the
meeting in Paducah in August for
.perfecting a state organization.
B. NJ. Mosely, president of Central
Labor Union followed Mr.. Barnett,
with a speech in which he said that
less friction existed in industrial lines
now, Paducah, than in many years.
He believed that the pleasant rela-
tions will continue. The Rev. ID. C..
Wright, rector of Grace Episcopal
church spoke to the party. express
ing his good opinion of their work.
Mayor James P. Smith made the
suggestion in his speech, that the
money to charter the Dick Fowler
to visit the Cairo Commercial Club
be raised on the boat, and within a
few minutes, seven or eight men
had subscribed the necessary
amount. AS many of the members
of the Club as can go. will leave on
the Dick Fowler at S O'Clock on some
day next week, or the week follow
ing, and spend the Afternoon with the
Commercial Club in Cairo. This
visit is planned to show Paducah's
good feeling toward its neighboring
lefty, and the Cairo Commercial Club
no doubt will receive them royalty.
Secretary S. A. Fowler of the
Commercial Club received many
complimentary sentiments about the
successful trip last night. There
was nothing to mar its pleasure and
the Club members believe much good
was accomplished. 1t may be made a
yearly affair, or even oftener.

WHEAT BRAN FOR COWS.
Character of the Feed from Different
Mills Varies Considerably.

Letters received at the station in
dicate that I'm some parts of Michigan
prejudice exists against roller proc
sss wheat bran, says Prof. Smith of
the Michigan station. Some farm
ers prefer finely ground bran, others
are prejudieed in favor of coarser
samples. The product of roller mills
is not uniform in this respect. In
some samples the germ is ground
with the bran. In other mills the
germ is found either in the -four or
as a separate by-product. To get
some light on the relation of the COM
position of bran to its physical ap-
pearance, Ia samples were ana
lyzed, some of them from roller mills,
some from burr stone mills. some
from mills of large capacity and 9th
ers from smaller establishments The

position of extremely coarse bran and
the finer articles. The chemist says
on this topic: THE two extremes,
the very coarse and the very fine, are
of much the same composition, while
neither shows the best sample so far
as feeding properties are concerned.
The medium grades generally show
a better analysis than either of the
extremes. Theoretically the bran pro-
duced by the roller process should be
more valuable than that produced by
burr stones, as in one the germ, which
is rich in fat, is separated out with the
flour, and in the other this part goes
into the bran. The roller process
brans are all perceptibly higher in
protein than are those of the burr
stone process. 1t is not so much
the amount of starch present in the
bran, as the amount of protein and fat
that is of consideration to the feeder.
The end for which the millers are
constantly working in the milling pro-
cess, the most complete separation of
the starch possible and the needs of
the consumer OF the bran, food rich
in protein and fat, are identical The
new milling process, instead of supply
ing the feeder with an inferior grade
of feeding stuffs, furnishes him with
one much superior to that supplied by
the old process"
