Cottonseed Meal and Cake.

Cottonseed meal and cake are fed
with best results to cattle and sheep.
To horses they should be fed only in
The meal blows about readily when
fed out-of-doors In the wind, and for
use under those conditions the cake
is better. The cake usually gives bet
ter results also for feeding with whole
grain of any kind, as the meal readily
separates from coarser material with
which II may be mixed for feeding.
Where one is mixing 1t with ground
grain the meal is more desirable.

MAY VALIDATE ALL
HOMESTEAD CLAIMS
BILL PASSED TO RELIEVE LAND
HOLDERS WHOSE ENTRIES ARE
IMPROPERLY REGISTERED.
Proper Application Must Be Filed in
the Land Office Before July
I, 1912.

Washington-The house of repre-
sentatives has just passed bill pro-
viding for the valuation of certain
homestead entries in forest reserves.
The bill affects a large number OF
homestead entries in Arkansas and In
the Ozark national forests which
have been allowed by error of the
registers and receivers of the local
offices. The effect of such errors
by the land department is to deprive
the claimant in such cases of his
right to the particular tract of land
claimed, and it works a forfeiture of
his right to make a homestead on
other lands under the general home
stead law This is so manifestly un-
just that Professor Potter of the Blu
reau of Forestry, in the hearings be
fore the public lands committee, on
Nj. Floyd's bill to abolish the Ozark
national forest. recommended the re-
medal legislation embodied in this
bill.
The measure provides that all such
entries may be reinstated and vail
dated, provided a proper application
is filed in the local land office before
July /, 1912.
The bill. if it becomes 4 law, Will
afford relief to a large number Of
h0mesteaders in the Arkansas and
Ozark national forests and also in
other reserves throughout the coun-
try where such erroneous entries
have been allowed.

Unlawful to Photograph Battleships

Washington.-The house has passed
the so-called spy bill introduced by
Representative Hobson of Alabama
The bill makes it unlawful for any
person to make photographs or draw
ings on board battleships or on navy
yards or forts without proper autho,-
ity For such offense the penalty is
a fine not to exceed $1,000 or one
year in prison. If the person attempts
to sell the information to foreign
government, the penalty is fixed at
10 years in prison. Tourists may still
take harmless snapshots of vessels.

Handling Honey.

In melting candied extracted honey
the temperature should not go above
100 degrees, otherwise the fine flavor
will be in a large measure destroyed.
The usual way is to place the vessel
of candied honey in another larger
receptacle containing hot water. In
filling the 60-pound tin cans with
honey. particular attention should be
paid to know when can is full. One
way is to place the can on scale and
make 1t balance at 60 pounds.

TANNING MILL IS VALUABLE
BY Judicious Use Of Machine Farmer
Is Enabled to Increase Crops and
Destroy Weeds.

No farmer can get anyone to take
the same pains in grading his seed
that he would himself. Some farmers
claim that 1t does not pay to clean
grain.
II is a fact that It does not pay very
large returns to clean and grade grain
before selling it. but by grading our
own seed we can materially increase
the yield Of our small grain crops.
The corn crop Of this country has
been increased millions of bushels by
intelligent seed selection. All other
grain crops can be improved by
grading the seed. so that only good.

The Penknife in History.

Nowadays we use penknives princ1-
pally for sharpening pencils. There
was time, however, when they were
used, primarily, for doing something
else. They used to be just what their
name would indicate. They were
'spen-knives." A pen-knife used to
be just what its name would indicate
a "pen-knife." The ancients used
pens made of goose quills, just as our
own forefathers did up to about
hundred years ago. The quill Pen was
made by hand, of course, and when
ever the point of one would break
or lose it's elasticity it was up to the
penman to put new point or nib"
on the quill. This was done with a
small knife, and hence we have the
word that has outlived the quill pen
8 hundred years-'pen-knife." In the
olden times the pen-knife was nee
essary accessory of the writing desk.
When the clasp-knife came in, the
smaller sizes took their name from the
little desk knife, while the bigger ones
were called "jack-knives"- sig
nifying anything masculine or big and
strong.
