CITY BESIEGED MANY TIMES
constantinople Has Been Under
Turkish Rule for Five
Centuries.

Constantinople. - The history OF
Constantinople was said years ago TO
be chiefly a record of sieges. Put on
the map by Constantine the Great in
eco, it withstood its first siege a cen
fury later It was threatened by tho
Huns in $50, by the Huns and Slavs
in the next century, and by the Per
slams and Avars in 626. Thrice the
Arabs assailed it, Four times the
Russians were driven back from it's
walls, and II fell before the Turks only
rfter the second expedition made in
the fifteenth century. In most OF its
many sieges 1t drove back the enemy.
1t was entered on only three occa-
sions.
Since It has been under Turkish
control the city has been threatened
only four times-once by the com
bined Russian and English fleets In
ITO; a second time by n British
squadron in 1907; the third time by
the Russian army of liberation in
1877, when hasty peace stopped tho
czar's advance, and the fourth time
by the Bulgarian forces today.
For eleven hundred years Constan-
tinople was one of the important
cities of Christendom. For less than
five centuries 1t has been under the

FEEDS AND THEIR
FERTlLIZING VALUE
BY PROF. &. 3. HART,
Wisconsin College of Agriculture.

Taking into 6 .'count the relation
producing and non-producing ami
mails, as found on the average farm,
1t is conservative to assume that at
least 80 per cent of all the fertiliz-
ing constituents present in the mate
rails fed on the farm, Is voided by
the animals in the solid and liquid
excreta. The 20 per cent. lost in
cludes the amount removed in the
milk, that retained by the young ami
mails during their growing period. and
consequently, the fertility removed
from the farm by the sale Of animals
grown thereon. From this It will be
readily seen that the composition of
the feeding stuff really determines
the value OF the excrement. The
manuria1 value OF the excrement pro-
duced from one ton of feeding mate
rial is, therefore, so per cent. of the
value Of the nitrogen, phosphoric acid
and potash contained therein. At
prevailing prices for these elements.
the manure combined solid and
liquid excrement) from one ton of
wheat straw would be worth S195.
while that from one ton Of corn
meal wheat bran. or linseed meal
would be worth 1924, $1019, and
$157S respectively
In most cases the amount OF nitro
gen is the factor determining the
fertilizing value of a feeding stun
This is due to the fact that nitrogen
is usually present In larger proper
tion than phosphoric acid. or potash.
and is much more costly when pur-
chased.
A farmer who buys large quantities
Of concentrates is increasing the fer
tility of his fand provided he is TAX
ing proper care Of the manure At
the University Farm there is a gain
every year in fertilizer elements
from feeding stuffs purchased, over
the losses sustained by the sale of
animals and animal products.
In purchasing feeding stuffs, one
should always consider their fertiliz-
ing value as well as their feeding
value. for. while the substance is
bought primarily to feed. It is some
times possible to buy different mate
rails which will serve practically the
same as feeds and yet vary greatly
in their value as fertilizers. It Is
indeed often sane practice to sell
some Of the produce OF the farm.
and with the money thus obtained,
purchase other feeding materials.
There is scarcely a farm on which
such an exchange could not be made

The following example will illust-
rate more clearly what is mean. II

BY simply selling timothy and
corn, and spending the money for
clover and bran, without any cash
OUTLAY the fertilizing value of the
ration has been increased $54.37 and
consequently the manure produced is
worth $4S.4S more than If corn and
timothy had had been fed The
actual feeding value has also been
Increased because of the greater
amount OF protein in both clover and
bran, with no decrease but rather all
actual gain in the dry matter and at
the same cost. This suggestion may
be made of considerable practical
value, dependent on the market
prices of the various feeds.

The natural result from a system Of
buying cream in which the same price
Is paid for good and poor quality is
to discourage the production of good
fresh cream and gradually lower the
quality of the butter because of the
defects in the cream from which It is
made. This causes a reduction in the
selling price of the butter, and all the
farmers suffer financial loss because
Of the insanitary condition of certain
lots Of cream and the effect these lots
of poor cream have on the quality of
the butter.
If the quality of the 105, 900 900
pounds of butter made in Wisconsin
each year could be SO improved that
its value increased 1 cent per pound,
there would be an addition of little
over 100000 per year to the receipts
for butter made in this state.
The most promising suggestion for
the encouragement of the producer Of
clean and sweet cream is that all
cream should be graded and different
prices paid. not only on the basis Of
fat content, but on the sanitary condi-
ton as we'll.
A company operating a series of fac
tories has introduced the system by
having the cream haulers grade ac-
cording to the flavor and acidity Of
theNcream at each farm on each route,
emptying the cream of different

mer soon notices the number of the
can into which his cream is poured

of the cream at the farm so that it is
in much better condition when the
haulers gather it than it was before
the cream was graded.
Grading may be done to some ex-
tent by taste alone. both for flavor and
acidity, but the apparatus shown in
the illustration makes possible more
accurate determination of acidity
without loss of time, while the cream
is being received. 1t is described in
detail in Bulletin 220 of this college,
Another creamery in northern Wis

ing its patrons of the advantages of

come this, the factory management d.
vided the cream into two lots and paid
4 cent more per pound butter fat for
cream testing over 25 per cent fat
than for that testing under 25 per
cent fat. This grading in a short time
changed the richness of the cream de-
livered by the patrons, so that at the

MOST CERTAIN WAY
TO END 4 BAD COLD
Surely Breaks the Most Severe

1t is a positive fact that a dose or
Pape's Cold Compound taken every
two hours until three consecutive
doses are taken will cure Grippe or
break up the most severe cold, either
in the head, chest, back, stomach or
limbs.
You distinctly feel the cold break
ing and all the disagreeable grippe
symptoms leaving after the very first
dose. 1t promptly ends the most mis-

sore throat, running of the nose, mu-
cons catarrhal discharges, soreness,
stiffness and rheumatic twinges.
Pape's Cold Compound is the result
of three years research at a cost of
more than fifty thousand dollars and
contains no quinine. which we have
conclusively demonstrated is not eff
fective in the treatment of colds or
grippe. y
Take this harmless compound as
directed, with the knowledge that there
is no other medicine made anywhere
else in the world which will cure u
cold or emo Grippe misery as promptly
and without any other assistance or

amount, by virtue of HI changes
