Guide for Builders.

AS a reason for the adoption of such
regulation, Plumbing Inspector Davis
says:
During the past two or three years
builders have been endeavoring to cut
down the size of bathrooms. and in order
that there shall be sufficient room for
cleaning and proper use this Office has
been holding plans up and forcing COM
piance with certain requirements as to
size, which requirements have been based
on a very broad clause in the regulations.
1t would seem policy to incorporate the
minimum necessary size in a regulation
and relieve the Office of much argument
and trouble

Spelling.

A number of years ago spell
ling was accounted one of the
principal branches taught in
school, since then spelling has
been showed in the background
to some extent. The grammar
grade teachers are beginning to
wake up to the fact that some of
their pupils can not spell the
simplest words. Manuscripts
that were otherwise neatly done
were given a poor grade on &C.
count of poor spelling. Of
course it is neither necessary
nor expedient to give it the
prominence our grandparents did
yet it is now recognized that the
best way to teach spelling is to
begin in the primary grades and
have systematic work through
out the school. The time may
come when spelling reform will
remove the burden from the shoul
ders of the teacher, but until
then the only way to learn to
spell is to spell. -Pontotoc Adj

Millions Wasted in Feeding Whola
Grain to work Stock.

Owners of hcrses, mules and other live
stock in the South are beginning to re-
aliZe the waste of feeding
woie grain.
1t is co~nservatively estimated that
fifty per cent of whole oats and corn,
unmasticated and u~ndigested, is lost in
the droppingsssof work animals repre-
sentlng Il money loss of fifteen cents
on every dollars worth of feed purchas
ed. In the Southern States alone, this
waste will amount to fifteen millions of
dollars annually.
Scientists the world over have studied
this question of feeding work stock
and it is now universally conceded that
a mixture of ground alfalfa and select
ed grain produts In the ptoper propo-
ton of make an ideal balanced ration.
It's strength and fitness lie in the fact
that it is exactly balanced, is extreme
ly palatable. the degree of digestibil-
ivy is exceptionally hi gh and the alfal-
ia makes 1t a tonic as well as a feed.
Such a mixture precludes all possibii-
ity of collie or other stomach or bowel
disorders, promotes digestion, cools,
nouriShes and invlgorateS the animal to
the point of sustaining maXIum exer-
ton at minimum cost.
The protein content In such a feed
need be no more than 10 per cent. and
of fat 3 to 81 per cent. 1t is not the
mere abundance of protein and fat that
the feeder wants, but palatability d.
gestibility andsuourishment.
DR.. w. II. Dalrmyple of the louisa
ma STAGE University, puts this clearly
and forcibly as follows:
las a rule the commercial mixed
feed men only give the percentage of
the chemical composition of their mix
lures but do not mention the matters
of d~igestlbility, or the element of pal
atabilty which is all important. For
instance, two feeds may have the same
chemicpi composition and theoretically
be of equal feeding value, but oweing
to the greater portion or digestlbill.y
of n Of them, It may render that n
Doubly as nutritious AS the other and
consequently of greater value AS a
feed.
The only commercial feed that COM
bines all of these qualities Is made ny
the CCrno Mills Company, St. Louis.
That the product of this company
must be highly satisfactory to teedels
Is demon ,Lfated by the TACT that since
the company began operating d smail
iced mill III East SC. Louis, a years ago
it has erected two large, modern mills
in East st, Louis, ana Peoria. iii. The
merit OF this product Vas recognized
at the James Town Exposition, wnere
a jury Of experts deciued that Como
Feeds were tn puresr aud best. aud
truly the stanard OF feed excellence.

Dairy reed, N Como Hen and .Click
