THE PARENTS
 ARE CRITICISED Dr. T. M. Milan Says They Neglect Teeth of Their Children
DENTISTS IN SESSION
Pine Bluff Meeting Most Largely At' tended in History Of Society
 Oppose Advertising.

At the opening session of the tWen- ty-fourth annual meeting of he Ak ansas State Dental Assocf ition here yesterday, the most large'g attended . gathering in the history oi the sDcie ty, D1. T. M Milan, of Little RocE, i'll discussing the subiecr "Progres- sive Dental Ethics" severely criticis- ed parents who neglect the teeth of their children. He attributed to their neeligerc ce the natural dread of the dentist usually displayed by the child and said that many adults were large Iy to blame for this condition of af- fairs, as they too, often delay dental work until the pain is more acute and their boasting of "how they stood it. creates fear of the dentist on the part of the child.
 Dr Edgar Smith and Dr. J. F. Hancock, of Little Rock; and Dr. Hen ry W Morgan, of Vanderbilt Univer- sity, Nashville, Tenn, also took an important part in the discussion. They urged the dentists to keep their in struments out of the sight of the pat tent, declaring that in most cases the instruments create a mental suggss- tion Of fear.
 The meeting, which will go throush Thursday and Friday, was opened with prayer by Dr. J. I. Norris, pas tor of the First Presbyterian church of this city. In the absence of May or A. C. Jordan the welcome address was delivered by Colonel S. M. Fay Tor The response was said by Dr. J. E. Hancock, of Little Rock. Presi- dent L. K Charles, of Eureka Springs, is presiding, and Dr. l. M. Sternberg, of Fort Smith, is secretary.
 ''The Third Tonsic as Dental Problem" was the subject of a fine paper by Dr. William Breathwit, of Pine Bluff. It was ably discussed .by Drs. Morgan, of Tennessee, and Drs. J. E. Hancock and T. M Milan, of Little Rock. The members ire awaiting with interest addresses to be made today. by Dr. D M. Cottrell, of the Memphis, (Tenn.), Dental Col lege, and Dr. Morgan, who will Illus trate his discourse.
 The Association went on record as being opposed to the admission of any member of the State Association, who is not member of his respective local society. It adopted the code of ethics of the Chicago Photographic Society, which prohibits members from using display ads and makes it alnpn,fessional for dentist to advar- tiss 5by handbills, posters, circulars catds signs or in newspapers. It does not exande practitioner from using profesa ,nal cards of suitable size in. modest type. The code pro hibits any dentist from paying or ac- cepting commissions or fees for pro fessional services or on prescriptions

 New York, June William Earle Dogge Stokes, millionaire proprietor of the Ansonia H5tel was shot three times and badly wounded this evening by two girls whose apartments, on the fourth floor of the Fashionable Varuna at Broadway and Eighteenth street, he was visiting The young women were Lillian Graham, age 12, a singer, and Ethel Conrad, eigh eeg years old, an artist. Each of the girls fired three shots. Miss Ora hams bullets inflicted two wounds and Miss Conrad's bullet one.
 The first two shots from the sing. CTS revolver penetrated Mir. Stokes right leg and one i'll he thigh. which may prove very dangerous. The ar tlst bullet penetrated the lower pau oI ms left leg. Late tonight at tae RooseVelt hospital X-ray pbofogra nh c ot the wounds were made and nendia z, the oeYeiopment of these the s11-4 Seons decline to say how serious the mllilonalre's condition may become
 The possession of a package of lst- teis both the girls and their vic7;m agree had been the motive for .he shooting. The letters it is said were written by MT. Stokes to Niss Graham before her second marriage which occurred last February. There were two versions however of she difficulty which arose over the lat ters.
 The hotel man asserted that the young women summoned him to their apartments on pretense of giving him the missives, locked him in and then deanded $25.O00 from him under .,an- alty Of death if he did not give them the money.
 The girls declare that they had m tended to give him his letters withoat payment and that he grabbed Miss Graham by the throat and tried to choke her, whereupon she fired in self deferse. Then according to ,,heir story, he wrested her revolver from her and Miss Conrad, thinking that she might be shot got her own wea- pom and commenced firing
 They did not try to escape. With them were taken into custody, three Japanese, employed in an adjoining apartment, who, hearing the shooting thought MT. Stokes was the agras sor and tumbled him vigorously before they realized the mistake. The five prisoners were all held tonight in the West Sixty eighth street police station.
 Detectives who searched the yoIng woman's apartments in the hotel found a large number of letters cnd also the fragments of several which had been torn up, apparently before
 the ldispute began. for the pieces were pn the floor. What the letters contained was kept secret.
 Late tonight Lillian Graham be- came composed enough to tell little about, herself. She said in 1908 when she, first met Mir. Stokes she W S

FEEDING THE D.

It 10 important that the feeds]
know that all feeds are not alike suit
ed to milk production, for instance
COW may have all she can hold O
such feeds as cotton seed nulls, corr
stover' (shock fodder, nubbins, tim
othy, prairie or sorgum hay, wheat OF
oat straw, millet, ETC., and yet have
the raw material for only few quarts
of milk. Neither is the quantity Of
feed consumed any indication of its
economic use. A COW may be eatina
40 or so pounds of good alfalfa hay
daily and yet giving only gallon OF
SO of milk, when really that amount
Of hay has enough protein, the thing
that costs in feeds, for Is or 20 gal.
Ions of milk. The COW is not to
blame in either case; she is doing the
it is up to the feeder to adjust the
conditions.
The COW, in common with other
ruminants, requires a bulky feed i'll
order that the stomach may be full.
The following is about an ideal ra-
ing 20 pounds, Il gallons, of five
per cent milk daily: Forty pounds sill
age, 10 pounds clover, COW pea or al
falfa hay, three pounds of wheat bran,
four of corn meal. one cotton seed
meal. Here is a very good rough and
ready rule for feeding the COW. reed
eight pounds of ground feed for each
pound of butter fat produced, and
enough roughage to bring the total
pounds of dry matter up to IS. This
will have to be varied with the size
of the COW, but Will work pretty we'll
with COWS weighing from 900 to 1,200
pounds, while larger COWS will usually
take more roughage and less grain
and the proportion of grain to rough
age should be greater with smaller
animals. When no silage is fed, man
gels or other roots should constitute
a part of the ration to supply succu-
lency, and if a COW does not get some
le2uminouS feed, COW pea, clover, al
falfa, etc, the grain ration should be
partially composed of some highly
food, such.as cotton seed
meal.
The above should not be taken as
dogmatic, hard and fast rules, the
feeder will have to modify the ration
to suit each individual COW; however,
l believe this is the right track and
any variation from it will be in detail
rather than in principle.
