ABOUT Feeding HORSES.
Part Of a Speech OF One Of the South's
Greatest Experts in This Line.

The following is clipped from The State,
being part OF the speech rt Gently made by
Judge Henry Hammond OF Augusta and
Beach Island. Judge Hammond Is recogniz-
ed ss an expert on the subject OF feeding
stock.
"When the farmers Of the south learn 10
use more of their cotton products. learn TO
feed their horses and stock with cotton seed
prod ucts, II will mean millions OF dollars 10
the south, part Of which every farmer will
save for himself. No report has ever shown
that Injury to O horse has been q result OF
feeding cotton seed meal. Feed IL every day.
That's what do. 1t is not hot or cold
climate feed. Feed not less than one pound
nor more than three, the amount TO be de-
termined by the age, size and work OF the
animal Not only Is II the most nutritious
food but It greatly aids the digestion and
general health and good appearance Of the
animal.
Feed cotton seed meal with anything you
ever heard OF @ horse or mule eating-corn,
whole: corn cracked; enslage: bran. etc.
Don't stick TO any one food. Give variety.
Change as the price changes. 1t is always
best 10 feed hard working stock ground {uot
too fine) feed. Cotton seed meal is fed 10 best
advantage when thoroughly mixed with the
other portion OF the grain part OF the ration.
II YOU know what number OF pounds OF
grain will maintain your animal, reduce this
Two pounds for every pound of meal you
feed him. To illustrate thlp,-if you have
been giving him IA pounds OF corn, give him
now only 10 pounds of corn and pounds OF
cotton seed meal. He will soon improve and
do better work than ever before"

BITTER FIGHT OVER
WILL COMPROMISED
FOUR DEVISEES RELINQUISH
SHARE OF PROPERTY
Son Cut OFF with $500 and Daughter
with a DolIar-Sum Left for
Masses for Repose
of Souls

When the petition for the probate of
the will of Mrs. Ann Smith, who died
November 27, 1901, comes UP for con-
sideration in the superior court Friday
it is believed no further contest will be
made, and that the wishes of Mrs.
Smith will be carried out.
Following Mrs. Smiths death, Thorn
as Butler 81, and Ann Mikes, 49, son
and daughter, respectively, of the de-
ceased, filed a petition for letters of
administration of the estate, claiming
their mother left no will. Later how
ever, a contest was filed by Attorney
Joseph Scott, who presented will in
which he was named as executor. A
bitter contest followed, the brother and
sister claiming their mother executed
the will as a result of undue influence
which, in her feeble state, she could not
resist.
This contest has been settled out of
court, four of the deVisees turning over
to Mrs. Smiths son and daughter the
property left to them.
Mrs. Smith was ~ years old when she
died. Her estate was valued at APP
proxibately $21 900, and by the terms
of her will Thomas Butler. the son,
was bequeathed $500, while her daugh-
ter, Ann Mikes, was given only 81. A
brother, Dennis Tivenan of Louisville
was left $4,000, and the clergy of Los
Angeles We're to receive $500 for masses
for the repose of her soul and those OF
numerous relatives.
The remainder of the estate was be-
dueathed to the children of Daniel
Tivenan, another brother, of Louisville.
and it was through the action of the
latter in turning over their share of
the property to Butler and his sister
that a settlement was reached.

The Stomach Does
Not Cause Dyspepsia
Neither Will 1t Cure 1t Because the
Lack of Gastric Juices
Prohibits Relief

The stomach is a strong, powerful or
gan, which is composed of muscles OF
great strength. 1t is filed during dt-
gestion with gastric juices which, when
the stomach, extending and compress
ing the food, dissolve it and separate
the nourishment from the waste mat
ter. If, however, these gastric juices
are lacking, the stomach is not capable
of digesting its food because 1t has not
the tools with which to work success
fully.
The gastric juices when in a perfect
state do away with all foul odors, fer
mentation and decay, reduce the food
to a disintegrated mass, and the stom-
ach then presses it into the intestines
where another form of digestion takes
place. Then the intestineS take from
this mass Of food all that is nourish-
ing and give it to the blood. The waste
matter is thrown from the system.
If instead of nourishment the intes-
tines receive impure deposits combined
with a poisonous and imperfect gastric
juice it can be readily seen that they
must turn such imperfect nourishment
into the blood. The blood then being
unable to give each part of the body
that which it requires, becomes i'm
poverished and disease is spread broad
cast.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets corrects
trio juices are lacking and imperfect
these tablets do their work just the
same. They build up the elements in
the juice which are lacking and re-
move those elements which cause dis
turbance.
Meats, grains, fluids, vegetables and
delicacies, in fact, each portion of a
large meal have been placed in a glass
vial and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
have digested them to perfect fluid
just as a healthy stomach would do.
A large, complex, hearty meal holds
no terrors for a dyspeptic if Stuarts
Dyspepsia Tablets are used. Abnormal
eating, late dinners, rich foods cause
i'll effects to the stomach, but when
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are used
one may eat when and what one will
without danger of dyspepsia or discom-
fort.

PIONEERS TESTIFY

Settle Ownership of

Bronzed and bearded pioneers and

ories of mountain and stream, appeared
in department seven of the superior
court yesterday to take part as wit
nesses in the case of the County of Los
Angeles against May X. Rindge, adj
ministratrix of the estate of Frederick
Rindge, which has for its object the
settling of the question whether the
Malibu road is public or a private
highway.
Presiding in the case is Judge Frank
F. Oster of San Bernardino, who eX-
changed places with Judge Hutton. the
latter believing himself disqualified be-
cause of his friendship for the defen-
dants and the fact that permission had
been granted him TO traverse the high
way without hindrance Representing
the county is Deputy District Attorney
Hartley Shaw assisted by the firm of
Haas, Garrett & Dunnegan, while Oscar
Lawer, United States district attorney,
is listening to the testimony in order
to familiarize himself with the facts
which are expected to be used in other
suits which may be tried in the higher
courts: Mrs. Rindge is represented by

But few witnesses testified yesterday.
Prominent among them was Marion
Decker, one of the oldest residents of
the country lying back of the great
Rancho Topanga Malibu Sequit. the
property of the Rindge estate. He was
placed on the stand by the county and
showed himself to be entirely familiar
with every canyon and mountain trail.
Thirty years ago, he said, the road now
in dispute was travelled generally by
persons to and from Santa Monica.
The hearing of this case is expected to

DEFECTIVE GAS FIXTURE
CAUSES MANS DEATH
EmpIoye of Restaurant Fails to Turn
off topcock-Lifeless Body
Found by Fellow
Lodeer

A detective gas fixture caused the
death of Peter Budman, a dishwasher
who was found dead in bed in his room
at 7121a North Hill street early yester-
cay morning.
The sropcock on the gas jet in the
room occupied by Budman was without
a check and could be turned so that
while apparently it was closed in real
it, it would be open When Budman
tn med out the gas Monday night he
neglected to close the outlet.
Budman usually arose at clock in
the morning, as he began work early.
When Budman's alarm clock rang at
that hour Peter Comaich, who occu-
pies an adjoining room, heard it. He
remained awake for some time but did
not hear Budman stirring, as was his
custom. Comaich decided TO investi-
gate. He entered the room at $3.50
o'clock and was nearly overcome by
gas. He found the lifeless body lying
on the bed and the defective gas jet
wide open.
The body was taken to the undertake
ing establishment of Bresee Bros. The
coroner probably will sign a certificate
of accidental death.
