Cotton seed meal and hulls when they
can b bought at the right prices form
an admirable ration for both beef and
dairy cattle There is no simpler way OF
making beef than through feeding meal
and hulls. though probably this ration
is not as economical as one consisting OF
meal and sllage. Where silos are not
available. however. and cheap hay can
not be had. the hulls make an admirable
form OF roughness. For beef production
probably the best combination is one part
of meal to five or six of hulls. The
price will Of course influence the ratio
in which to feed these materials. Quick
er gains will generally result from feed
ing one pound Of meal to three of hulls,
but the cost is often increased thereby
to such an extent as to make the use
OF the meal and hulls N The proportions
first suggested the most profitable. Less
than two pounds of bulls should never
be fed to one pound OF meal or indiges-
tion is likely to follow.
For dairy cows we would suggest the
feeding Of meal and hulls in the proper
ton of one to five. We think five to six
pounds OF cotton seed meal as much as
ever should be fed to beef and dairy cat
tie per head per day when the animals
weigh approximately 100 pounds. Larger
quantities can hardly be utilized advan-
tageOusly and are liable TO produce indi-
gestion. Raw cotton seed is not regard
ed as a very satisfactory food for either
beef or dairy cattle, and can only be
used advantageously for fattenAng during
the cool part OF the year. Moreover,
they should not be fed for more than
part of the fattening period under any
circumstances as the excessive amount
Of oil in them seems TO throw the ami
mails OF feed. A pound of cotton seed
has not more than half as much feeding
value as a pound of cotton seed meal At
the Mississippi station experiments with
cows indicated that one pound OF cotton
seed is equal to LII pounds OF corn or
corn and cob meal or IS OF a pound of
cotton seed meal. There is thus no adj
vantage gained by the farmer from feed-

the folly of feeding raw cotton seed

PARIS. Dec. THE relative practi-
cability Of dirigible balloons and aero
pIanes for war in the future Is a
theme of intense discussion, following a
letter from Baron D'Estourneles de
Constant, senator and president OF tn
parliamentary group favoring inter
national arbitration to General Bruin,
minister of war.
The letter calls attention to the fact
that France is far behind other coun-
tries in the development of military
aeronautics. The senator's warning has
been taken up by the National Aerial
league, which has pointed out to the
aerostatic commission of the chalnber
the pitiful position of France as COM
pared with Germany, Frances solitary
"Ville de Paris" contrasting markedly
with Germany's ten diriSibles
The commission agreed that 1t was
urgent that the government prepare a
complete program for the construction
of dirigibles and aeroplanes.
The minister of war has outlined to
the cabinet his tentative plans and in
so doing he said that the dirigibes
would be augmented so that in 1911
France would have "a satisfactory
fleet" and that French engineers and
constructors were now busy modelling
and building aeroplanes 1t is the in
tention to establish a school for pilots
and to provide a practice course be
tween Nice and Marseilles.
1t is understood that the war de-
partment is convinced that the aero
plane will be the most serviceable unit
in the future, and it plans to
strengthen the army in that direction
more than with the dirigibe balloons.

MANY KILLED IN

HAMBURG, GERMANY, is SCENE
OF DISASTER
TWO GAS HOLDERS BLOWN UP;
DUE TO LEAK
Terrific Fire Follows Combustion and
Twenty-seven Men Are Believed
Dead and Forty More
Injured
Associated Pressl

HAMBURG. Germany, Dec. THE
explosion of two gas tanks in the So
called Kleines Grasbrook on the Elbe
front this afternoon was followed by an
extensive fire and the loss of many
lives.
The explosion was due to a leak in a
new gasometer. The escaping gas en-
tered the retort house, where it came in
contact with the fires, causing a ter
rible explosion. A large number OF
workmen were engaged in REBUILDING
and charging the plant
TWENTY-FIVE men were working near
the gasometer. They disappeared in Il
mass of flames which shot up 10
great height
Firemen appeared quickly, but We're
unable to approach in large force pc
cause of the isolated situation of the
establishment.
Late tonight ten more men are L.
ported dead and seventeen missing.
Forty Men Injured
1t is almost certain that all these
are dead.
Forty men were dangerously injured.
several perhaps fatally.
The fire spread rapidly and threat
ened the old gasometer containing o.
600 cubic meters. SO intense was the
heat and so dangerous their position
that the firemen were compelled 10
withdraw.
A terrific explosion soon occurred
and the tower became a mass of flames
which leaped hundreds of feet in the
air. sending fragments of glowing
coke far over the city and harbor.
After strenuous efforts the fire was
got under control and rescue work
begun. There is little hope of finding
the bodies of the missing, as they
would undoubtedly have been incih-
Grated.
The new easometer which exploded
was the largest in the world, having a
canacitv of 100000 cubic meters The
city appropriated $3,5OO,OOO for its con-
struction.
