Southern Hay Growing.

In sections where Johnson grass is
well esta blished very good system of
hay growing is to SOW vetch or Grim
son clover, or both, with a small
amount of oats as winter crop, on
Johnson grass land. Where the land
is plowed early in the fall and put in
good condition for the winter hay
crop two or three good crops of John
son grass can be cut the next summer.
This system will then give a crop Of
winter hay and two or three cuttings
Of johnson grass hay every year.-H.

WHEAT BRAN.
Practical Advice on cheapenins ths
Ration For the Cow.

Practical Advice on cheapsnins thS
Ration For the Cow
One of the best known milling by.
products and % which has long beer
recognized as valuable feeding stuff
is wheat bran. OF this material ]. B
Lindsey of the Massachusetts expert
ment station says:
Until comparatively recent times
wheat bran and cornmeal have formed
the two staple concentrated feeds for
dairy stock, and in spite of the large
variety of concentrates now in the
market the former still continues to be
used by the majority of dairymen in
eastern states. The reasons for this are
not difficult to find. A good quality of
bran is uniformly palatable; it can be
fed in considerable quantities without
producing any i'll effects; it acts as a
slight laxative; it furnishes more di.
gestible protein than corn, and it serves
as very satisfactory diluter or dis
tributer of the heavy concentrates, such
as the glutens, cottonseed meal and
flour middlings.
Home Grown Corn a Substitute.
Lindsey believes, however, that the
nutritive material contained in bran
may be purchased more cheaply in 9th.
er concentrated feeds and that New
England farmers especially often use
more bran than economy warrants. As
a practical result from experiments to
find cheaper rations for milk cows than
those containing large amounts of
bran, Professor Lindsey suggests:
Farmers who keep comparatively
small herds and who personally look
after the feeding may reduce the guam
tity of purchased grain to three or four
pounds daily per head and substitute
home grown corn in place of wheat
bran. Five to seven pounds of grain
daily is the usual allowance for cows
producing about ten quarts of milk of
average quality. This grain mixture
may consist of one and one-half pounds
of cottonseed meal, two pounds of flour
middlings and two and one-half to
three pounds of corn or corn and
cob meal daily or one and one-half
pounds of cottonseed meal, two pounds
of oat mfddlings or rye feed and two
and one-half to three pounds of corn
meal. Malt sprouts may be substitut
ed for the wheat, oat or rye middlings.
The several grains after being mixed
should be distributed through the silage
or cut hay with the aid of a fork.
According to the Farmer.
The foregoing method Of feeding will
enable the farmer to get along with a
minimum cash outlay for grain az
cents daily. and at the same time he
will be supplying well balanced ra-
ton. rich in elements of fertility. The
method will be more particularly suit
ed to farmers not having easy trans
portation facilities and who sell their
dairy products to the creamery.
Farmers and dairymen who cannot
closely supervise the feeding and who
desire to feed more than five to seven
pounds Of grain daily will probably
find it advisable to use third to one
half wheat bran in compounding the
grain mixture Distillers' grains and
malt sprouts have also been shown to
be quite satisfactory distributors of the
heavy concentrates.

Rural Delivery and Good Roads.

The annual report of the fourth as
sistant postmaster general states that
at the close of the fiscal year there
were 37,72S rural free delivery routes
served by 1852 carriers. During the
year 1912 new routes were ablished
and $50 discontinued, leaving a net
increase in operation of 1862. The re-
port pays considerable attention to the
subject of road improvement. 1t is
stated that, while ideal roads are not
asked for, they still need to be proper
ly drained and free from ruts and
washouts. Adequate highway laws
properly enforced are suggested.

SHELL ROAD WORK.
Maryland Engineer Tells How 10
Build One and Whist u Costs.

Maryland Engineer Tells How 10
Build One and What 1t Costs.
: w. W. Crosby, chief engineer of the
highway division of the Maryland geo
logical survey, writes as follows to the
editor of the Good Roads Magazine
concerning the cost of shell road work
In Maryland: We occasionally build
roads out OF oyster shells where the
soil is very sandy and the traffic COM
paratively light, as frequently occurs
on the Eastern Shore Of Maryland
Formerly oyster shells were very gen
orally used, but recently the increased
price of them has brought crushed
stone into competition.
The old method of building a shell
road was, as you probably know, sim
ply to dump the shells on an unpre-
pared roadbed and allow the traffic to
pack them down, which it did in the
course of varying periods. With the
increased cost of shells and the de-
mand for better and more permanent
results we have developed more eco
nomical use of the material and at the
same time secure quicker and far
more satisfactory results. We shape
the road exactly as we would do for
stone surface and then apply the oys-
ter shells in two layers, rolling each
thoroughly and binding the top one
with sand and water. The Bayside
road in Talbot county was built two
years ago under this method. The
Brookview-Rhodesda road was built
last winter. Below is statement of
the cost of the latter road. The road
is about mile long, and there were
about $500 square yards of macadam
laid:

The fact that Prof. ]. B. Jockey
cannot be induced to continue his
work as principal of the Pensacola
High School is to be regretted.
Prof. Jockey has made the best
principal that the schools of this city

possess and he has set a standard
which it will Row be hard for any.

That he wifi now spend a year
or two in fitting himself for higher

creditable on his part. but his gain

Bryan Supporters
Should Be on Their Guard.

The Tampa Times calls attention
to the organized campaign which the
anti-Bryan people are making to Sc
cure the defeat of the Bryan delega-
ttion from Florida to the national con-
vention, and it calls upon Mr.. Bry-
tan's supporters to be upon their
guard.
The position of the Times is well
Justified and The Journal hopes that
every Bryan paper in the state will
take the trouble this week to inform
its readers who the Bryan delegates
are and how the ballot should be
voted.
Elsewhere on this page to-day, The
ballot, showing how 1t should he
voted in order to elect the Bryan
|, delegates. The Journal hopes every
paper that is interested in seeing a
Bryan delegation go from Florida
will reproduce that sample ballot.
Florida is uneuestioHably for
Bryan. as the returns from the last
primary plainly showed. 1t would
be too bad now If, simply for lack of
information, the balance of the
Bryan delegates should be defeated.
The BryaH delegates to be voted
upon in the Third congressional dis
trict are as follows:
Three delegates from state at
large-Basil o. Bowden, Chas. B.
Eaton, A. S. Mann.
One District delegate-Jno. T. G.
Crawford.
Let every Bryan man and Bryan
paper get busy and see that these
delegates are not defeated.

PoWERBoAT IN LIFE SAVING.

CHATHAM, Mass, Dec. 22.-Power-
boats seem to have solved the problem
of .live-saving on Chatham shoals
hitherto feared as the most deadly
portion of the Cape Cod coast.
So successful have they been in rid
inc out seas that have beaten back
the old style of lifeboat that the Gov
eminent has ordered the establish
ment of several more along the New
England coast,
One of the severest tests to which
the new boats has been subjected Oc-
Cured about ten days ago, when the
Monomoy Point boat was sent four
miles off shore, over a series Of rips
and shoals, to the schooner Rebecca
Shepherd, which was sinking on Pol
lock Rip The boat went over the
same mass of cross-seas in which five
years ago another Monomoy crew was
wrecked and six lost their lives. The
new powerboat reached the wreck in
side of an hour and brought back the
entire crew The vessel sank as the
lifeboat cast off.

NATURE MAN TIRES
OF SOUTH SEA LIFE
EDWIN DARLING WOULD RETURN
TO CALIFORNIA If ONLY HE
HAD MONEY FOR PASSAGE.

SAN FRANCISCO. Dee 3O.-Edwin
Darling, the Nature Man" has tired
of primeval life in the South Sea isle
of Tahiti. He has never been able to
feel entirely at home among the ISL
anders and the French colonists, and
he remembers his school days at Stan
ford University and the sympathizing
friends of his boyhood.
It is more than two years since Oar
ling, hatless, coatless and shoeless. but
wearing light cotton trousers and a
shirt with cotton gloves upon his big,
sunburned hands, sailed away i'm the
Mariposa for Tahiti with the avowed
purpose of making his permanent
home among the hospitable Polynesi-
ans in a climate suited to his ideas
OF the simple life.
He was kindly received by the ma
tiyes, who appreciated his sincerity,
even though they declined to become
converts. When he tore along the
highways on his bicycle, clad in moth
ing but a breechcloth the half-naked
islandersblushed for him.
when Darling went to meet the
steamer Mariposa on her monthly trips
to Papeete, he first wore only this
breech-cloth, but the commander for
babe him to come aboard again unless
he wore trousers. Everybody aboard
the Mariposa laughed when Darling
av. - ell
ing call. He stopped at the foot of the
gangway, took a thin pair of gauZy
trousers from the tool box on his
bicycle, and coolly drew them on up
{ That is his customary habit now, for
he regularly meets the Mariposa and
has at least one good meal during her
stay in port, as a relief from the
monotony of breadfruit, cocoanuts and
spring water.
/ Since the French authorities of Ia
hiti refused to build him a road lead
( ing from the town to his small clear
1 ing up on the mountain, Darling feels
discouraged and now he wants to
come back to the coast.
IF I had the price of a steerage
ticket" he remarked when the Mari
posa was last at Papeete, 81 would go
home to San Francisco and look for
another home"
Those who know the Mature Man
say he is too conscientious to stow
away in the steamer and beat his way
back
