best known of OskaloOsa pioneer
families, the name of Leighton, prom

ity since the earliest pioneer days,
passes on to history. Tobias Leigh
ton, the father of the deceased, and
his excellent wife, Harriet COe Leigh
ton, came to Oskaloosa in the spring
of 1886. The elder Leighton was a
native of Maine, born April 4,1S12, in
ter and builder by trade, which occu-
patton he followed for eight years in
Scott county, Illinois, settling there
i'm 1886. He came to Wapello county,
Iowa, in 1874, and two years later,
1916, the family moved to Oskaloosa,

mated a brilliant business and politi-
cal career. The entire state mourned
his death. Charles Leighton, who
succeeded the elder brother to the
management and part ownership in
the Herald, was born twelve miles
east of Ottumwa, January II, 1886,
the year before the family came to
Oskaloosa. At fifteen years of age
he became an attache of the Herald
office. He then went to the war with
Company Of The 47th Iowa Infantry
and served from May until October
of that year. He next rOughed it out
west, and returned to the newspaper
field upon the death of his brother.
Charles was otherwise prominently
connected in business and politics.
He was a coal operator for several
years and developed the Lost Creek
property southeast of Muchakinock.
He spent several seasons in the
Klondike region of Alaska, engaged
in mining. Returning to Oskaloosa
he was elected city clerk in 1901 and
served t ZEE years "rder William
Wray John G. Williams until
March 1904, when death claimed
him. William NJ. Leighton, the third
of the brothers, was born in Oska-

aged 81 years, 8 months and 10 days.
He went to the Herald property as an
apprentice in 1870 under his brother,
Henry G. Leighton, and in 1877 he be-
! came junior partner of the property,

erty passed to the ownership of AL
bert w. and Pauline Swain. He
then became associated in the print
ing business with his lifelong friend,
John H. Perry, with whom he has
labored continuously for the past fif-
| teen years. He had been i'll for
twelve months or more suffering with
creeping paralysis, which affiiction
compelled him to abandon work dur

year. He became more and more
helpless and was cared for by Mr..
Perry, who was with him at the hos.
pital as his spirit took it's flight. Six

field and he will be missed by those
among whom he was associated.

DR.. A. N. sOULE TALKS
OF COTTON SEED MEAL
President of State College of
Agriculture Discusses Cat
tie Raising

DR.. A NJ souie, president OF the State
College of Agriculture at Athens, whose
farmers conference will be held in
Athens for. two weeks beginning Janu-
airy 2 has just prepared for the
press a most interesting article entitled
Cotton Seed Meal and Huns for Beef
Production" In handling this subject
DR.. Soule writes:
THE failure to develop the beef in
dustry more rapidly up to this time is
largely due to lack of appreciation
of the true feeding value of cotton seed
meal and hulls and other forms OF
roughness which may be used advan-
tageously for this purpose in the south
It has often happened also that many
who have attempted to feed cattle have
not selected the animals with care as to
breeding and desirable qualities, kept
them free OF ticks or fed them under
rational conditions. There is a right
way to do everything. and the more
nearly it is done in accord with the die
tates of nature the greater the returns
to the farmer.
THE meal and hulls should be mixed
by weight and put in the trough every
morning and evening. The rate of feed
ing will depend on the condition Of
the animals and the length OF the feed
ing period. start with small ration
of meal and bulls and increase it stead
lily throughout the feeding period. II
enc contemplates feeding four months
and this as rule will be necessary in
order to put q sufficient finish on the
grade of cattle available, combine the
meal and hulls in the ratio of one pond
of the former to six to eight of the
latter. In other words, for the first
two weeks do not feed over two or three
pounds of meal with as much hulIs as
the animals will eat up clean. Towards
the end of the feeding period one will
probably be giving six to eight pounds
of meal per 1000 pounds OF live weight.
AS much as eight pounds have been fed
with satisfaction. There will be ten
dency for the consumption of hulls to
decrease and If some form of rough
ness, such as clean bright straw, nicely
shredded corn slower a little grazing
on a rye patch, or a small amount of
sllage be available. 1t can be added to
the ration with most excellent results
as It will give variety and palatability
to the food supply.
"One should never forget that in feed
ing beef cattle the idea is to secure
the largest daily consumption OF food
without getting the animals off feed
Rock salt should be kept where the ami
mails can get 1t and the feeding trough
should be cleaned out night and morning
If any food is left therein. II the
animals fail to eat up their ration clean.
