NEED MORE PROTEIN.
Corn Alone Not Satisfactory as Hog
Feed Saws the Farmers Voice.

A station bulletin says: 1t is now
clearly recognized that dry feed alone,
especially where corn is the exclusive
ration, does not provide the most sat
isfactory combination of nutrients for
the hog. The fact that corn is so
generally cultivated has led to its al
most exclusive use as fattening ra-
ton for hogs in many localities,
which is unfortunate in the light OF
Investigations made in the last few
years, as the results distinctly show
that much better gains would be OBJ
tanned were the corn combined with
some other food which would supply
the needs of the growing animals to
better advantage.
For fattening purposes corn stands
supreme, but it is not a complete and
perfect food for either growing or fat
tening animals, and this statement ap-
plies to all classes of livestock. From
the standpoint Of the hog FEEDER, corn
is deficient in both protein and min
eral matter especially the latter. Since
the uniform and rapid development OF
the animal depends on the main.
tenance of the skeleton or bony frame
work, the nutrition Of the muscles
and the formation of fat, it is essen
tial that such foods be fed as will
provide for the needs of the body in
the cheapest form. AS other grains
are rich in some of the constituents
in which corn is deficient, it appears
that a combination of them will prove
effective, and such is shown to be the
case by the results presented.
The common practice Of feeding
corn alone to hogs would be corrected
were some we1l-known truths more
generally recognized. For instance, il
is stated on competent authority thai
the ash Of corn is entirely indigestible
by swine. Moreover, the Withholding
of mineral matter from the hog moi
only impairs the skeleton, but the
whole nutritive process is disturbed
as well, and the growth of the ANNA
is seriously retarded If our results
are to be relied upon. The fact that
gains two or three times larger thar
those normally obtained on corn alone
follow the proper adjustment Of the
ration is a matter of such far-reach
ing and economic concern to hos
raisers as to command their most re
spectful and earnest consideration.

To Hold Flowers,

In order to cut off the neck of a

Destructive Museum Beetle.

The larva Of the museum beetle
(Anthrenus muscorum) has been doing
terrible damage in the National Her
barium at Melbourne, Australia.
1t can only be kept in check by plac-
ing the portfolios Of plants in vapor
of carbon bisulphide. A remarkable
point about these beetle grubs is that
they can feed on dry materials with
out any supply Of water. And yet
they are found to contain the same
percentage of water as those which
feed on moister food. 1t is suggested
that the water may be chemical in
origin, and formed from the oxygen
and hydrogen in the food.

New Court Stenographer.

The many friends and acquaintances
of Ellsworth Ingram, of Houghton,
were greatly pleased to learn that he
had, during the fore part of the week,
received notice of his appointment from
Governor Warner, to the position Of
of court stenographer for this district,
to succeed S. w. Goodell, deceased.
Mr.. Ingram is product of the Cleary
Business College and was one of its
most promising graduates. Upon his
return from the college he secured sew
eral positions of responsibility in his
chosen profession, and each one led to
better one, until at last he has now
received an appointment to position
to which but few ever attain.
His appointment was attained through
the able assistance of Houghton, Bara-
ga aud Keweenaw attorneys, it having
been found that his services during his
try-out were sufficient to warrant his
being rendered the position.

An Excellent Condition.

Sixty-two of the eighty-four counties
of Michigan have thus far in this year
received more money from the state
treasury on primary school account
than the total of their taxes, and there
is yet another large payment to be
made from the state treasury to the
counties in November. If the demo-
cratic candidate for governor wishes
to gladden. the people of the state
rather than to criticise his political
opponents he could do nothing better
than to review the accomplishments
of Michigan during the past ten years
in the way of adding to its income, to
its earnings from cooperation fees, in
heritance tax fees, insurance fees and
license fees. Many more thousands
of dollars have been addeded to the
state earnings than have been ex-
pended, and every dollar of this in
crease goes directly for the benefit
Of the tax payers through being added
to the primary school fund. The busi-
ness affairs of the state of Michigan
have been as well conducted as that
of any business firm in our state, and
the result gives to Michigan q posi-
ton not equaled by any others.

Chanse Location OF Walk.

After weeks and months of debating,
the question as to where the entrance
leading to the Court House grounds will
be located, has been decided upon. AT
first it was to have been in the same
positios as the original one, but in the
minds of those acquainted with the
general circumstances deemed it more
advisable to place it at the extreme
south end of the grounds, and now after
that end had practically been completed,
the change is to be made. This neces-
states the tearing away a portion OF
the wall and the filling in of the place
left for this purpose. To the general
public the final decision seems the best,
and base it upon the grounds Of the
disagreeable condition to which those
desiring to transact business at the
Court House are subjected often times,
in being compelled to pass in such close
promixity to the Jail, especially the fail
sex, many of whom are daily business
visitors.
Now that the decision has beer
reached it is assured that but few
weeks remain before the work will be
completed.

A Fine Game.

Saturday afternoon last the center
of interest in L'Anse was located on
the H. S. gridiron, and from all ap-
pearances everyone took the few hours
off to watch the second championship
game of foot ball between the L'Anse
and Houghton H. s. teams.
From the time the signal was sound
ed for the game to start there were but
few moments that the playing was not
at fever heat, and to attempt to give q
summary of the plays made throughout
the game would require more space
than our columns will permit, therefore
we VIII have to content ourselves with
brief remarks.
Both teams were quite evenly
matched at the beginning, and for the
greater portion of the first half few
gains were made by either team. Near
the middle of the half Cote, Of the
L'Anse squad, was quite badly injured
in an attempt to make q strong play,
and incapacitated him from further as.
sistance. This weakened the team tc
some degree and from then on the
Houghtons made important gains, until
it had crossed the line and made q sue
cessful goal kick, netting score of {
to 0.
In the second half L'Anse rallied and
though unable to score, did some excel
lent work in preventing the opponents
from making any further points, thus
bringing the game to q close with the
score no different than at the end OF
the first half. ~
In the second half Houghton realized
the fact that L'Anse was playing q
stronger game than in the first, and
apparently fearing that the score would
be tied or that they would meet defeat,
used many "time killing schemes,
which proved very effective just at q
time when L'Anse was on the verge of
crossing Houghton's line, and it is safe
to predict that q half minute longer
to L'Anse's favor would have ultimate
ly changed the situation considerably.
L'Anse lost, but, we are proud to
say, with no disgrace. The game was
well played and the manner in which Il
was played showed that the boys were
rapidly gaining proficiency in the tao
tics of the sport.

.'The republicans ofs the state have
decided the matter and / will accept
their decision and do all can to
assist in the election Of their choice. "
This was the statement made by Fred
n. Warner when he thought that an
other than himself had been elected as
the republican candidate for governor.
He was disappointed then, but he did
not fail to keep in mind what was
due from him as a republican and as
one who had been honored by his
party, and there are thousands OF re-
pubiicans ali over Michigan who did
not favor Fred Warner at the pri-
maries who will Loyalty support him
for governor because Of his prompt
and manly acceptance of what seemed
to him defeat and disappointment. It
is not hard to do the right thing and
to say the right things when all ones
purposes are favored, but the accept
ance Of defeat in q generous way re-
quires q different sort of material.
Nothing that could have been done or
said by Governor Warner would have
90 recommended him to the republi-
cans of Michigan as his statement of
good will and favor for his competitor
when he thought that competitor and
not himself would be the republican
candidate for governor.

The Tuesday morning session was
conducted by Hon. w. H. French, whose
topics were entitled Hints and

sisted in the work by the excellent and
painstaking instructor, Mrs. Frances
Kelsey, of Marquette, in twoimportant
subjects bearing upon educational ad-
vancement in the grades and the value
of familiarity with the course of study.
Throughout the balance of the time
occupied by the institute both Mr..
French and Mrs. Kelsey carried out
their thoughts in a learned and in
structive manner and did their utmost
at all times to deeply stamp these
thoughts into the minds of the teachers
seated before them, so that each
thought, and each plan would become
of practical use in their future teaching
and school wark.
During each session the seriousness
of the work at hand was lightened by
musical number, either vocal or in
strumental and aided wonderfully to
enjoyment of the occasion.
AS was announced Mr.. French deliver
ed an address in the Opera House
Tuesday evening. There had been ar
ranged delightful musical program
which was part of the event that was
worthy of all the pleasing compliments
which were showered upon the partici-
pants. The address was, we may safely
say one OF the very best which has ever
been delivered to L'Anse audience.
Mr.. French is man OF very pleasing
