afternoon broke even with the strong

The game, which was hard fought

that 1t was one Of the best ever play
ed on Ankeny field. Whitman's field
ing could not have been excelled,

WASTED IN CONVERSION

Washington.-The lavish use of
lumber in the United States for per
capita consumption is from three to
10 times greater than that Of the
leading nations Of Europe, five eigh-
tins of the rough lumber sawed in
this country serves as raw material
for conversion into a more highly fin
ished and valuable product, such as
furniture, musical instruments, farm
ing implements, etc.
The waste in the woods, the mill
and the factory. 1t was said at the
forest service. is so great that two-
thirds Of what was in the tree II lost
on the way to the consumer. The
heaviest part Of this loss takes place
in the saw mills.

cities SO pleasantly situated as Samar-

deur of the palaces erected by Tamerlane

them. One palace, he says. is overlaid
with the porcelain Of China, whence it is
called the Chinese house. A person

Muscovy Company. He remained two
months and half and was treated with
much consideration. His report was pub

MAKING CLOSE STUDY
Of SORGHUM FODDER
Officials of the Department of
Agriculture Investigate
Cattle Poisoning.

Plant chemists of the Department OF
Agriculture are making a close study
of the sudden death that overlook eight
dairy cows belonging to w. G. Brewer OF
Dickinson, Nd, as the result of eating
or less of a puzzle to farmers in that
region, where sorghum is less well known
az a fodder than 1t is in many sections
of the west and south. Poisoning OF this
sort is not by any means unknown, but
fortunately. it is said, 1t is not common.
Sorghum poisoning sometimes happens
in Nebraska and Kansas. where more OF
the fodder is grown, but II still Is
rather a mystery to agricultural chem
lists The fact that the case in question
happened SO near the seat Of the depart
ment makes laboratory study easier, and
1t is likely that the bureau of plant in
dustry will make thorough inquiry.
Views Of an Expert.
Prof. Rodney True. who is the sorghum
expert of the department, said, In speak
Ing Of the matter today:
Sorghum is really a member OF the
grass family. Ordinarily it is a well
hammered plant and valuable for forage,
but it has in 1t the elements for making
prussic acid. Sometimes when the crop
Is 'stunted' by drought-we call 1t that
for lack of a better name-the green Tor
age In the animals stomachs will form
prussic acid and Kill them. The same
thing happens sometimes with crop OF
Johnson grass and the trouble Is more
or less frequent in India, where they
grow a variety OF sorghum, called derma'
for forage.
I'VE do not know much about the chem
istry of the process. but this case nap
pens here at home. and we will be able
to make a more satisfactory study OF IT,
OF course ii is rather hard on Mr
Brewers cows, but 1t certainly will be
convenient for us to study the results.
Careful Inquiry Certain.
II do not know that there is any way
that the vicious condition Of the crop
could be told by mere observation, but
we may find this out. l do not know,
either. that 1t would be safe to feed the
'stunted' sorghum after 1t had been
dried and cured. All that l can say
Just now Is that we are investigating
the case as thoroughly as possible
