s1LAGE FOR BEEF CATTLE.

Professor Soule, of the Virginia
station, recently made the. following
report of a cattle feeding test:
During last winter an interesting
experiment with sixty head of beef
cattle was conducted at the expert.
ment station. The twenty cattle fed
silage made an average gain of LAG
pound per head per day, the twenty
cattle fed timothy hay, 10 pound
per head per day, and the twenty cat
tie fed shredded corn slower, 81
pound per head per day
There was thus difference of one
third to one-half pound of gain per
head per day in favor of the silage
fed cattle. The silage fed cattle fin-
ished off the best and showed more
quality than the others and in any
discriminating market would have
brought considerably higher prices.
The strong prejudice against using
silage for the winter feeding of beef
cattle is hard to understand, for it
has been fully demonstrated that
silage fed cattle will kill out quite as
well as the dry fed cattle, and the
meat is, generally speaking. of a
superior quality. Whereas the silage
was all eaten up. 1876 of the slower
and AIS per cent. of the hay were
wasted.
The gains show that the cattle fed
were not of a satisfactory quality.
In previous experiments a pound OF
gain has been made for "a consump-
tion of three to four pounds of grain.
The silage fed cattle in this test con-
sumed 6.54. pounds of grain for a
pound Of gain, the slower fed cattle
Ills pounds, or about. twice as
much, and the hay fed cattle S.S9
pounds, or 2.45 pounds more per day
than the silage fed cattle.
With better bred animals fed in
previous experiments, the average
gain per head has often. been 3.1S
pounds throughout the six months
feeding period. which again testifes
to the unsatisfactory quality Of the
animals fed ii this test.

MONEY IN POULTRY.

AT the poultry institute held by
the Colorado Agricultural College in
Greeley, Professor W. G.. Chambers
exhibited Rhode Island Red hen
that had laid 200 eggs in one year.
Professor Chambers keeps from
forty to fifty hens on town lot and
has to buy all his feed. He keeps an
accurate account of all expenses, and
last year for feed, louise killer, straw
and all incidentals, the cost was 81 a
hen
He uses trap nests and keeps no
hen that lays less than 40 eggs in
twelve months. The average for his
entire flock is little over twelve
d0zeA eggs hen per annum.
The average price in the open mar
ket for the year for eggs has been
twenty-five cents a dozen. This
makes at market, price an income Of
SO hen for the year-$2 hen more
than the cost of feed where all feed
has to be purchased.
Professor Chambers has made more
than this amount, because he has sold
some of his eggs for>hatching.
His hens are given dry feed entire
1y. He gives a light feed of whole
wheat and corn thfee+times day.
scattering the grain in the litter. 4.
He keeps before his hens all the
time in self-feeding hoppers a dry
mash made of the following mixture:
Bran, 200 pounds; alfalfa meal, 200
pounds; cornmeal, 100 pounds;
shorts, 100 pounds; 'linseed mealy1OO
pounds; meat, bone and blood, 100
pounds.
All mixed with little salt and

DIPPING FOWLS For LICE.

To treat a number of fowls indi-
vidually with louise powder is tedi-
GUS, unpleasant task An easier and
equally successful plan is to dip the
fowls in a reliable brand of sheep dip.
Hold the fowls by. the legs, heads
down, with one hand supporting their
heads. Let the solution cover every
part of the body from the toes up, ex-
cept the head and eyes of the hen.
Reserve this part until last, as the
hens gasp and struggle when their
head go under. Put the fowls to and
fro several times in the tub, which
Rnsures the solution percolating
through the feathers and reaching all
sections of the body.
Keep each fowl in the solution not
less than one full minute, and two
minutes is often better. Dipping
should be performed only on warm,
clear days, so the fowls can after
wards dry themselves in the sun and
will not catch colds. Epitomist.

Transp!anted English
Observation-Disclosures

If language is a true measure Of
conquest, as has been commended,
then Anglo-Saxon speech is rapidly
conquering the European continent.
1t is matter of interest to many
to observe the increasing number of
English words incorporated into coll
loquial French. This new but mild
and pacific form of English invasion
has led to the publication in Paris of
list of words that have become
more than 'acclimated" and natural
lied by general use in France. Many
refer to sports and sporting, and in
this group of words adopted from the
English into French are turf, trot-
ting, Tattersall, racer, maiden, nil
lord, carriage and gentleman rider,
English drinks have no great vogue
in France, but the French have
adopted several of the English words
that distinguish them: gin, punch
and grog.
They have also taken the following
English words:
Lightweight, lawn tennis, Irish
stew, home, handicap, ale. all
right" cocktail (Which the French
define as American, not English),
bridge and bridge whist, bullfinch,
block system, ballast, blackleg, event,
dining car, destroyer. drag (mail
coach), dandy, covert coat, commo-
dore, full hand (poker), flyer, feath-
erweight, 5 o'clock, fashion, hunter,
jockey club, keepsake, knickerbock-
ers, lunch, macadam, mutton chop,
outlaw, outrider, paddock, pedigree,
pickles, porter, pudding, quick be-
ginner, race horse, raglan (overcoat),
rocking chair, roast beef, sandwich,
self-made man, shocking, sleep car,
snob,, team, tipster, toast, top weight,
tramway, trolley, truck, tupnel, tub,
walkover wharf, waterproof and
whisky. .->-..
In Italy, too, may be seen the in
fuence fthe English tongue. High
life," pronounced "hig leef," has long
been in use IN that country. "Lo
SPORT and I'll yacht" are everyday
matters in the Italian kingdom; the

Latin synonyms, and in Italy gets its
plural regularly meetingai," like
any other good Italian noun. An en-.

Statistics and Comparisons
of Nations of the World
BY r. b. VAN sYcKEI..
From the Irvington IN. Il, Gazette.

| ada is $4,000. The salary of the
King of Greece is 5000, 900 The sal
airy OF the President OF France is
$4,000. The salary of the King
Of England is $1,925,OO The sal
airy Of the Emperor Of Germany is
$3,852,S7O. The salary of the Gear
of Russia is $4,000 900.
The salaries of the Vice-President
Of the United States, the members of
the Cabinet, ambassadors and minis
| tiers abroad are not sufficient to pay
their rent and living; in some cases,
not enough bytone-half, leaving moth
ing for their services.
Judges Of the Supreme Court in
the County Of New York receive a
salary of $17,50O, or $1,000 more
than the Chief Justice Of the United
States.
To make the briefest possible COM
ment on the above statistics, point
ing to one particular only, allow me
to compare the salaries paid to the
executive heads of the six or eight
leading nations Of the world here
mentioned.
White the population of the United
States is greater than that of either
Of the above named nations, except.
Russia, and the wealth of the United
States is far greater than that Of any
other, four times greater than the
wealth Of Russia, yet the salary paid
to the executive head of the United
States is less than that paid to the
executive head Of any of the other
nations mentioned, except Mexico and
Canada.
The salary paid to the President
Of the United States is $40 times less
than that paid to the Gear of Russia,
nearly eighty-five times less than that
paid to the Emperor of Germany,
and nearly forty times less than that
paid to the King of England
1t is obvious that a mans wage
does not always compare equally
with what he represents.
The Lee County journal. (Leesburg, Ga.) 1904-19??, 1908-11-13

There are comparatives found,
along certain lines, in studying differ
ent nations OF the world, which, to
say the least, aye interesting to pom
der over.
We are wont to claim that !. the
United States surpasses all nations OF
the world in development andT pro-
gress. While the United States is the
youngest nation with which propose
to make certain comparisons, she has,
by no means, therefore, followed her
seniors in the examples they have
set her along the lines which i shall
