A balanced ration is one that pro-
vides nutrition, without waste or
shortage of any of the nutrients, to
an animal fed for a specific purpose.
The ideal ration for beef cattle is
made up of corn and leguminous
roughages, either alfalfa or medium
red clover hay. Cattle eat a great
deal of roughage when getting on full
feed. When on full feed, they do not
eat much roughage The leguminous
hays are high in protein and corn is
high in non-protein material.
When cattle are on full feed it is
necessary to supplement the corn
with some concentrated feed contain
ing liberal supply of protein, to bal
ance the non-protein material in the
corn. The most economical one that
has been found is cotton seed meal.
or the cotton seed with the oil
squeezed out of it. Some feeders pre-
fer the nut form of this feed because
the fine meal blows away and is
wasted when it is fed out of doors.
Cases of sore eyes in steers have been
attributed to the fine meal getting
into the eyes of cattle fed upon 1t.
There is danger of the hogs following
the cattle getting some of the meal
before it has passed through the di-
gestive tract of the steer. In this
event serious trouble may come to the

A TROUBLE MAKER
Coffee Poison Breeds Variety of Ills.

A California woman who didn't
know for twenty years what kept her
i'll, writes to tell how she won back her
health by quitting coffee:
Il am 81 years DID," she says, "have
used coffee all my life, and for 20
years suffered from indigestion and
insomnia. Life was a burden and a
drag to me all the time, and about
once a year my ailments got such hold
upon me that was regularly sick in
bed for several weeks each time.
I was reluctant to conclude that
coffee was the cause Of my trouble. but
l am thankful that l found out the
truth.
Then I determined to use Postum
exclusively-for week at first-for
doubted my ability to do without cof-
fee for any length Of time. made
the Postum carefully, as directed, and
before the week expired had my re-
ward in a perceptible increase in
strength and spirits.
Seeing the good that my short ex-
pertinent had accomplished, I resolved
odt the coffee entirely. This did for
nine months, finding, daily, increased
cause for qualification at my steadily
improving health. My indigestion grad
ually left me, my sleep returned,
gained 26 pounds in weight, my color
changed from sallow to a fresh, rosy
hue and life became blessing.
Then thought I would try coffee
again, and did so for a few weeks. The
Punishment for deserving my good
friend, Postum, was a return of my old
troubles.
That taught me wisdom, and am
now and shall be all my life hereafter

the 17.6 &C. mark by drawing the
milk up into the pipette by suction.
One finger is held over the end of the
pipette to hold the milk in 1t until it
is ready to transfer to the test bottle.
Figure l shows the test bottle on the
left hand and the pipette on the right.
The milk is released by removing the
finger from the upper end of the
pipette and you have the exact amount
of milk you should use.
Next, It is Necessary to add IT'S
&C. sulphuric acid. This is measured
in graduated glass and poured into
the test bottle. The test bottle must
be held in slanting position to avoid
spilling the acid onto the hands. The
sulphuric acid is heavier than the
milk and settles to the bottom at
once 1t must then be thoroughly
mixed by shaking, being careful not
to splash it into the neck. The milk
when thoroughly mixed is of a brown
color. Thorough mixing is absolutely
necessary to give the correct test.
The lottle is then put into the tester
and whirled according to directions on
the machine.

linois college says he never knew of
case where hogs following steers
were poisoned by the meal which had
passed through the steer. In feeding

seed meal and great care should be
exercised in not giving them too much
OF it. Start them on a pound or a
pound and half per day and Increase
up to two or three pounds per day.
To supply succulence. and also to
cheaper the cost of grains, corn silage
is of great value in the ration. 1t
should be remembered that corn sill
age is not high in protein and should
not form all the roughage material
even when fed full grain ration of
corn. Good results come from alfalfa
or clover hay and silage as roughages
and limited allowance of cotton seed
meal fed with the corn rations as con.
centrates. This form of ration
offers variety, palatibility, succulence
and economy of nutrients for the in
tended purpose.

prompted by impatience or induced
by pleasantly cannot be determined
from an inspection Of the transcript
but what ever motive impelled the
use Of the language employed 1t was
unquestionably directed to the coun-
sci and not to his client, who in our
opinion, was not biased thereby.
It is maintained that the tesn-
mony offered does not show prom
ise Of marriage, and such being the
case an error was committed in re-
fusing to instruct the jury to return
a verdict for the defendant when the
cause was finally submitted. Wheth-
er or not on her direct examination
the Urosecutrix gave any testimony
on this subject is impossible GER
.tainly to state from an examination
of the transcript Of the evidence
which is attached to the bill OF ex-
.ceptions, for it will be remembered
that the services Of the official stem
ographer was not demanded until
Emma Olson had given part of her
testimony in chief On cross exami-
nation she stated that about January
l, 1909, she became acquainted with
the defendant, who, in March of that
year, commenced visiting her at her
home about twice q week, and a
few months thereafter she began go
ing out with him alone; that on
March 20, 1910, after dark in the
evening she accompanied him from
her home to the Golf Links station
at Sellwood and in answer to the
question, well, what did he say?'
she replied: why, when he asked
me l simply told him No, and | told
him 4 was afraid, and he said, No
use being afraid, he said, We are go
ing to be married anyway and |
thought 1t was all right then" She

further testified that thereafter sne
treonantly had Illicit connection with
me defendant until June, 1870 from
which time she saw him about Twice
oacb week until December Of that
vaor when he went to Los Angeles
.CoIifornia; and that on April 70
1911. she gave birth to a ienAie
child, 49,.
Alma Peterson testified that the
defendant visited Emma Olson quite
often prior to March 20, lSlO' ana AZ
sucb calls upon the prosecutrix she
fraoueptly heard them speaking to
each other on their intermarriage'
The defendant testified that he De-
gan going with Emma about Novem-
her. 1909. He admits that ne nau
sexual intercourse with her AT the
golf links but denies that he ever
promised to marry her until long al
ter their unlawful connection ceased
when he wrote her that he was per-
fectly willing to do the right thing
by her
It is argued by defendants counsel
that If it were admitted that prom
Use of marriage had been made and
accepted at the time stated, which
they deny, the testimony quoted and
referred to on this branch OF the
case shows that the prosecutrix was
a willing participant in her own de-
gredatiou and that the desire for sex
ual intercourse and the opportunity
for the qualification of her passions
prompted the indulgence aud that
there was no reluctant yielding OF
her consent induced by a promise OF
marriage upon which she relied. The
legal principle invoked finds express
sion in the case of Bradshaw Y,
Jones, 76 Am. St. R. 655, which was
a civil action wherein 1t was held

that in order to constitute Seduction
the consent of the female to the a.,
of intercourse must be induced r.,
some act, representation, or statmer,
of the man, in the absence of wbioh
there would be no willingness on tbo
part Of the woman; but that II was
not seduction where the willingness
arises out of sexual desire or curios
ity Of the female, so that she onlv
needed an opportunity for the com
mission of the act. in that case
there was no promise Of marriago
nor could there have been for tbe
defendant at the time of the commits.
sion of the act was married, Of which
fact the female had knowledge, mt
withstanding which, the Judgment
which she secured for the damages
sustained was upheld on appeal.
In people " Clark, Ss Mich. 112. II
was held in a criminal action that
where "a woman willingly submits 10
sexual intercourse in order to In
dulge criminal desire, the fact that
a promise Of marriage is made "as
matter of form only" the engage
ment was not enough of itself to
characterize the action as seduction
but that the nature of the promise
and the previous character of the
woman for chastity should be con-
sidered. The Interpretation of the
law thus given was fully justified by
the statute there considered.
In State V. Reeves, 81 Mo. O6S

made 1t a crime for any person un.

and debauch any unmarried female

course you are entitled to the test-
mony from the witness on the stand
but you are not entitled to have this
testimony read at this time: You may
have an exception. am not going to
have this testimony read over now"
Defendants counsel: well, we VIII
take an exception, II the court please.
The court: Eyes, ten Of them; put
down ten Of them" Defendants coun-
sci: "And we also desire to except
to the language Of the court" The
court: "Yes, you may take an excep-
ton to that, too" II is argued that
the remark: Eyes, ten Of them; put
down ten OF them" was flippant and
arbitrary observation well calculated
to prejudice the defendant in the minds
of the jurors who were governed by
the comment in determining the issue,
depending as 1t was on ,controverted
testimony, and that the expression
used by the court was unfayorable to
their client.
Courts are composed of judges who
are human and they are often
swayed by the frailties which af-
hict other persons. When, after de-
claring that defendants counsel was
not entitled to have the testimony
read over during the argument, the
court said to him: you may have
an exception" and this order was
taken down by the stenographer, 1t
was unnecessary to make any other
notation In order tn rserve the ques-
ton for consideration on appeal. In
stead Of relying on the allowance
thus made, defendants counsel in
sisted upon taking another excep-
ton whereupon the court remarked:
