susent Loses South Jersey.


Newark, N. j. March ia special
to the Call from Philadelphia says
What seemed to be meeting for
the endorsement Of Champ Clark for
President was held at the Ridgsway
Hotel this afternoon, about thirty
Democrats, from different parts of
South Jersey, being in attendance.
The meeting WAS called by James X.
Nugent, former chairman of the Demo-
cratic State Committee, who, in
letter to many prominent Democrats
from all parts of South Jersey, had
said: "Wishing to ascertain the senti-
ment Of Democratic voters of South
Jersey on the Presidential situation,
and knowing you 10 be interested in
the success OF The party, | would be
pleased to have you meet me and
lunch at the New Hotel Ridgeway, in
Camden, on Saturday next at O'Clock
in the afternoon.
Mr.. Nugeut was the POSTMASTER,
and, in calling the meeting to order,
referred To Governor Wilson as u de-
magogue, and declared that Demo-
cratic counties are not considered by
the present chairman of the State COM
mittee in looklng the field over politi-
cally on thu eve of a very important
primary election, wher delegates are
to be named to the coming Baltimore
convention. He referred to the cam
paign in which Woodrow Wilson was
elected Governor giving himself and
former Senator Smith the credit for the
election of the Democratic nominee.
Mr.. Nugent incidentally referred to
how he was greeted at the office of the
Governor after election, when he was
ordered out of the presence of Cover
nor Wilson.
Mr.. Nugent also spoke of how he
and Senator Smith carried Essex Ceua-
ty for the Democrats, which caused a
Democrat in the rear of the room TO
remark: "How many times have you
two people helped the Republicans all
over the State?'
The POSTMASTER WAS cool and made
no reply. He concluded by lauding
! Chemp Clark for the Presidency.
After speeches were made on the same
lines by former Judge Bowman 5.
Cox, of Gloucester County; former
Collector of the Port of Camded d. b.
Peterson aud others, Samuel Ided a
lawyer of Cumberland County, was in
troduced as staunch Democrat and
made an address in which he declared
| that it would be disastrous to run any
! Democrat in his county who would be
opposed to Governor Wilson for the
Democratic nomination for President.
i Edward Kelleher, clerk in the Of
flee Of Sheriff Nowrey: Harry E.
Cheeseman, Frank Bevereaux and 9th
ers of Camden, said they were honest
ly of the belief that the Democrats OF
Camden County are almost unani-
mously in favor of Governor Wilson Is
nomination for the Presidency. AL
though the meeting was no doubt call
| ed to throw hot shot into the Wilson
camp, the sentiment for Wilson APP
peared stronger than for any other
candidate, and nobody was endorsed.

Young calves need whole milk for

always have the first or colostrum

Euus and Exercise,

The hens to lay well In cold weather
must have plenty of exercise. If they
are to be confined, give them deep
litter of straw to scratch In, and place
the grain feed In this straw SO they
will scratch. Inactive hens will not
lay. 1t is good plan on the farm to
allow the chickens the run Of all the
barns and stables during the day. They
will do no damage at this time and
will secure lot Of feed that would
otherwise go to waste. In securing 1t
they will be compelled to exercise,
which will promote laying. Also, the
barn is dry, warm place for fowls
In winter, and dryness and warmth
are great factors in their health and
productiveness. They can easily be
shut out of the barn at night.

principal diet Of the calf for eight
months or year. Factory skim milk
should always be pasteurized to avoid
the spread Of tuberculosis. The best
skim-milk Is that which is fresh from
the separator and still warm. Ex-
periments show that it is only one
fourth as expensive to raise calf on
skim-milk as whole milk. Two
pounds Of grain with the proper
amount of skim-milk equals one
pound OF butter fat. Buttermilk or
whey may profitably be fed to calves.
Grain for calves should be fed first
while the calf is quite small with a
little bran to aid the calf in learning
to eat. High priced concentrates are
unnecessary and give not better re-
suits than corn meal. oats and bran,
ground barley, ETC.. when fed In
proper combinations. At four to six
weeks calf has good teeth and can
grind his own feed. A variety of
feeds is advantageous and best re-
suits will usually be secured from mix
lures.
The following list may serve as q
guide to the calf feeder In making
selections or combinations to suit his
conditions
/. Corn meal gradually changed in
four to six weeks to shelled corn with
or without bran.
2. Whole oats and BRAN
8. Whole oats and corn chop. the
latter gradually replaced by shelled
corn in four to six weeks.
4. Ground barley with bran or
shelled corn.
8. Shelled corn and ground Kafir
corn or sorghum.
6. Whole oats, ground barley and
bran.
Z. A mixture Of 20 pounds OF corn
meal, 20 pounds Of oat meal. 20
pounds of oil meal, 10 pounds Of blood
meal and pounds of bone meal,
changed to corn, oats and bran when
calves are three months old.
s. A mixture Of pounds whole
oats, 8 pounds bran, pound corn
meal and pound Of linseed meal.
The calf may be taught to eat
grain by rubbing little on it's mouth
when 1t is through drinking milk.
From this 1t will soon learn to eat
from the feed box.
The roughage for calves should
first be fed at two or three weeks Of
age when the calf begins to eat grain.
Good clean hay, either timothy, blue
grass, clover or alfalfa, may be used.
Corn silage Is an excellent calf feed
when fed in moderate amounts. Good
pasture is an essential after four to
six months. Of age, and If the calf is
turned out for only a few hours each

desired by the purchasers, and are
more suitable to their owners as

selling OF the old stock Of geese, as

purposes, and the young ones bring
better prices in the market.
