clover and rimothx.

The Missouri station has conducted
very careful experiments in steer feed
ing using different kinds Of roughage.
These experiments show that, as an
average result, bushel OF corn with
timothy hay produced 4.93 pounds Of
grain, while the same amount of corn
with clover hay produced 6.5S pounds.
Rating the gain at the low price of five
cents per pound, the feeder gets some
thing more than eight cents per bushel
Tor his corn when he feeds 1t with
clover than when he feeds it with
timothy Put the hay away having In
mind to feed the clover to the steers
and to all growing and all mich ami
mais, and to sell the timothy. Good
real good-cloyer hay is as good for
work horses as timothy. If you don't
believe 1t, try 1t out. But the clover
must be cut early enough-when the
heads have just become real ireland
handled without much rain or dew.
and not be overcured-that means the
use OF the best haying machinery. In
cidentally, the use of the best haylng
machinery means hay at less cost for
the making. Weekly Witness.

sag and loop 1t is no longer attractive,
nor is it sure means of keeping
stock within bounds. Many devices
have been suggested and even patented
for stretching wire, but here is a
simple little contrivance that anyone
can make in a few minutes that will
do the work quickly and well. For
short spans 1t can be made of wood,
although for heavy wires or for long
stretches 1t would be better TO make it
out of iron. This little contrivance is
about two feet long. with two pins
about three inches apart at one end.
Place the wire between these pins and
turn the stretcher around until the
wire is drawn tight. BY engaging the
pin ut the other end of the stretcher
the tension can be maintained while
the wire is being nailed fast. With
an arrangement of this SOFT one man
can do rapid work alone and fix up q
sagging fence IN short order.

PROPERTY is MoRTGAGED.
Encumbrance of $4,000 on wurdemanr
Homestead.

First accounts Of the recent settlement
made by DR.. V. ii. wurdemann OF
financial matters growing out of the d.
vorce suit were erroneous in several par.
ticulars.
BY the settlement. as effected Thurs
day, DR.. Wurdemann turns over TO his
hrst wife property said to be worth SOL
0Uo, but mortgaged in the sum of SO.
0uu, to be held by her as guardian for
the two children of their marriage. Con
verse and Helen l.. Wurdemann.
The property thus transferred to Mrs.
Wurdemann consists of the Wurdemann
homestead at 1907 Grand avenue. two
lots at Thirty-seyenth street and Grand
avenue, two lots on the Hopkins road,
$500 in cash, sailboat, rifle and bicycle.
In addition to this there is transferred
$4,000 In life insurance. in which Mrs.
Wurdemann is beneficiary in the sum of
$4,000, which has still several wears
TO run, and upon which Mrs. WuFde-
mann must keep up the premiums, with
the alternative of letting the insurance
lapse. Mrs. Wurdemann has agreed TO
pay Cor a 5000 piano which was bought
BEFORE the separation. her sons college
expenses for the last year. and other
bills.
The settlement relieves DIR. Wurde-
mann from paying $50 month for the
support of his daughter, and from the
support of his son. When Mrs. Wurde-
mann was given a divorce from DIR.
Wurdemann in 1906 the custody of the
son was given to him. Upon Mrs. Wur.
was not properly cared for by his father,
and preferred TO be with his mother,
Judge Halsey transferred custody TO the
mother.
