Passion Play Pictures.
Henry Ellsworth, whose Passion
Play pictures are shown at the
Academy. evidently has devoted a
great deal OF time to his subject. His
lecture covers the history Of the mys-
terry drama at Oberammergau from
the time OF its inception &c this day.
He tells the story OF the plague and
the VOW Of the villagers to produce
the play II the terrible visitation was
stayed and the development Of the
drama from Its crude beginning to
the great pageant which now attends
the ceremony.

when younger. Therefore, the mare
should be fed so that she will be
giving the largest flow of which she
is capable of, when the colt is about
two months old. In other words, the
feeding of grain should start when
the colt is two or three days old. AT
first, the quantity should be small,
but it should be gradually increased
up to a full feed by the time the
colt is from four to eight weeks old.

~
L Y South than our failure to
appreciate the necessity for the
correct and liberal feeding of young
animals The man who buys we'll
bred animals when they are young
and fails to develop them into good
individuals when mature; or who
buys mature, pure-bred animals OF
good size and quality, but fails to
grow from them offspring of equal
merit. is apt to conclude that there
is something in the climate or other
local conditions that offers serious
obstacles to successful stock raising.
It is discouraging to pay good
price for a young animal and fail to
develop it into a first-class individ-
ual, or to spend good large sum for
breeding stock, and then fail to OBJ
tain from them offspring equal in
quality TO their parents. This, how
ever, has been the experience of a
large majority of those who have at
tempted to grow live stock through
out the South. This experience has
resulted in a general belief among
all classes that farm live stock will
not grow as large or develop as well
in the South as in other sections. 1t
is only natural that the climate, or
the soil, or a fancied lack of nutri- +.
ment in the feeds. should be held re-
sponsible for our failures to produce
live stock of high quality. Man is
: - ~ .s.es-A' e-x-to blame -himsalf for his
failures. 1t is so comforting to lay
the blame on something beyond our
control rather than to admit our own
ignorance or neglect.
Southern Farmers Do Not Feed
Enough.
The writer is thoroughly convinc-
ed that the failure of farm animals
to grow as large or develop as we'll
in the South as anywhere else, is en-
tirely due to errors in care and feed
ing, which might be easily corrected
by an intelligent study of these prob
lens.
Southern stockmen have no great
er obstacles to overcome in the grow
ing of farm animals of large size and
good quality than are overcome by
the stockmen of other sections,
where the best of live stock is pro-
duced. In fact, on the whole, we
probably have less to contend with
and less to do to produce first-class
live stock than is required of the
live stock growers of many other
sections who produce animals of
high quality profitably.
We have yet to learn what good
feeding is, and to be convinced that
it pays. We begrudge too much
the feed given our live stock. Of
course, not one in five thousand who
reads this will think it applies to
him, but as matter of fact it ap
plies TO about 4,999 out of eyerv
5000 Southern farmers who have
attempted to grow live stock during
recent years. Farm animals bred
and fed in the South do not grow as
large as those grown elsewhere: but
there is no other reason under the
sun, except that they are not as we'll
fed and cared for. They do not
make as large animals because thev

forming the basis of good feeding.
First, he especially needs protein;
second, he especially needs ash or
mineral matter; and third, he needs
these in abundance.
Plenty of Protein and Mineral Mat
ter Essential.
A ration which lacks the proper
proportion of protein and ash will
not give satisfactory results, but the
same failure will also result, even
though the protein, ash and other
nutrients be in proper proportion, If
there is an insufficient quality. The
young animal must not only have
what he needs but all he needs. A
properly balanced ration of half the
quantity required will not give salts
factory results, nor will the most
liberal feeding of ration deficient
in protein and ash do any better
In feeding the colt he must have
a liberal supply of protein and ash.
Fortunately if he be given a liberal
supply of protein he is almost GER
tain to get sufficient ash, since our
feeds rich in protein are also gener-
ally high in ash or mineral matters.
The first Is months of the colts
life largely determine his develop
ment. If improperly fed during that
period, he is not likely to ever entire
ly regain the lost ground. In view
of this fact much care should be ex-
crCfscd in feeding him iberalIy and
right during that period 1t is not
to be concluded from this, that he
may be neglected without loss after
he is past Is months old, but merely
that the older the colt is, the less eff
feet does neglect have on his deveI-
opment.
Feeding the Mare.
During the first few weeks of the
life OF the colt he should be fed en-
tirely through the mare, and a good
part of his feed for the first six
months should be of this same sort.
Care, then, must be exercised in
FEEDING the mare that is sucking a
colt. II the mare is working, this
must be taken into consideration
and the directions already given for
feeding working animals must be OBJ
served; but if the mare is required
to do nothing but furnish milk for
her colt, then she may be fed for that
purpose only. For instance. grass.
oats, corn, cottonseed meal and
wheat bran may be used; the first
two in liberal quantities and the
three last rather sparingly For the
sucking mare running on pasture
there is nothing better than a liberal
grain ration of oats, but if these are
not available, parts of corn and
l each of wheat bran and cottonseed
meal will make a good substitute.
Many will no doubt be inclined to
ask If it is necessary to feed grain to
mare sucking a colt that is run
nlng on good pasture and doing
no work? If it is desired to remove
any necessity for blaming the eli
mate for the failure of the colt to
grow large and develop properly. it

How to Treat Scours.
or those colts that suffer from
scours and other digestive troubles a
large majority do so because they
are receiving too much milk. A
quantity of milk which would be
readily taken by a colt two months
old may very easily cause scours in
colt two weeks old When such
misfortune occurs, the mare should
be fed with view of lessening the
milk supply, but this alone may not
be sufficient. 1t may be necessary
to remove the colt from the mare for
short intervals and then milk her
before returning the colt. II the
mare is on pasture, she should De
put on dry hay and all gram
withheld until the trouble is cor
rected. The best treatment for
colt with scours is starvation carried

CULL0M IN MOVING PICTURE
TO SHOW HE'S NOT DECREPIT
Walks BriskIy Down Steps Of Nation
at Capitol To Answer an At
tack In Chicago Paper.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Aug. H.
Senator cuffom totay answered the
charge that he Is too decrepit to run
for United States senator again. His
answer was recorded by a moving
picture machine and will be on ex-
hibition to ell corners in Chicago and
other parts of Illinois next week.
Several days ago a Chicago news
paper printed a story that the sena-
tor is In such bad physical shape that
he cannot move about without sup
port. II was added that on account OF
his weak condition he would not con-
slider a campaign for reelection.
All OF the senator's friends knew
that this report was untrue, but to-
day there Unexpectedly came the op.
portunity to give the denial concrete
form. A representative OF a Chicago
company appeared and requested Mr..
Cullom TO consent to being photo
graphed in action for series, includ-
ing other public officials.
The senator Immediately stepped
out of his Office and walked down the
east steps of the capitol before the
moving picture machine. He was &C
companied by his secretary, Garfield
Charles. but the senator, II was not
ed, walked alone and unsupported.

MANTs NEW PLAN
Of BUYING BRICK
Mayor VIII Recommend Radical
Changes To Council for Adop-
ton Next Spring.

Radical changes In the methods now
employed by the department of pub
Nc works In the purchase of paving
brick will he urged by Mayor Thomp-
son when the proper time comes. IL
10 too late now to put his ideas into
practice this season, as Commissioner
Haarer. OF the ID. p. w, has ordered
about 100000 OF the 100000 con-
tracted for, but II the mayor has bis
way a new plan will Be inaugurated
next spring.
To begin with, the mayor would
have the contract so worded that the
brick men will know approximately
how many brick they are to furnish
under their contract and can act
accordingly. Under the present sys-
tenn, the commissioner enters into
contracts with ten brick manufacture
ers, each 10 furnish "a million brick,
more or less" This has meant any
thing from 100000 or less to more
than 100000, according to Mr.. Haar-
ef's Interpretation, although the
mayor says the supreme court has
Interpreted "a million. more or less"
TO mean within 100000 OF million,
either way.
Under such a contract. the mayor
point out, the brick manufacturers
must hold themselves In readiness TO
furnish any amount the commissioners
may demand, although he may order
less than 100000. Thus the brick,
which could have been sold elsewhere,
Is held In stock over winter. Under
his contracts this year the commits
sfoner has purchased brick as fol-
lows: Bessemer. 2,265, 900; Massil-
Ion, $4,000; Townsend, $4,000; Speed
way, $4,000; Novelty, 714,000; Woos-
ter, 100000; Champion, 795,000: Mel
sonville. 1,27S,000; Medal, 100000;
Wassall. 708,0O0. One point in favor
OF Commissionef Haarer Is that Bes-
semer, the brick he has purchased in
the largest quantity, has made the
best showing In the tests.
Mayor Thompson believes that the
contract should be so worded that
each contractor could be sure OF fur
nishing minimum OF, say, 10000,
provided his brick were up to the
standard required.
The mayor will also recommend
that brick be purchased under single
af>ecification, instead Of three, as 10
now done. and that q guarantee oe
required on all brick. The three
Specifications now used are: Speci-
flcation A, under which the brick are
delivered I. o. b.. without guarantee
and cannot be rejected; specification
B, under which the bricks are deliv-
cred on the streets without guaran-
tee, and specification G, delivered on
the streets with guarantee.
Commissioner Haarer has purchas-
ed to date S.672,000 brick under speech
ication G.; $500 under B, and $4,000
under A. The mayor things specifica-
tons A and b should be cut out en-
tirely, and has figured out that the
brick delivered under specification A.
with no guarantee, has cost more, In
some instances, than brick under G,
figuring In the cost OF carting II from
the cars TO the streets at $1.75 per
thousand
All these recommendations VIII be
embodied In a message to the council
At the right time.
In the four tests made by Boiler
Inspector McCabe; Thursday, Novelty
brick showed an abrasion OF 25.45 per
cent: Wooster, 24.62; Speedway, 1852,
and Champion, 1882.
