Winter-KiIlcd Trees.

Fruit men high in authority hold

nomical for the average producing
COW. High producing cows, however
require more protein than the av-
erage This is supplied by feeding a
greater amount of grain, which should
always be fed according to the pro-
duction. A ration for high producers,
including a large amount Of grain,
may have a nutritive ratio as narrow
as LIS.
What to feed will depend on what
is available, but the proportions OF
various feeds to give will depend on
the proportion of proteins. carbo-
hydrates and fat contained In them.
On this basis. the College OF Agricul-
ture has figured out what are called
balanced rations, using the feeds pro-
duced on Wisconsin farms. Any one
who wishes to know how to make a
balanced ration from the grains and
forage at hand with the least ex-
pense for concentrated feed may find
out by writing to the College OF Agri-
culture at Madison. stating what feed

be used to advantage. Old stone ana

Feeding stuffs are composed OF wa
Ter, mineral substances, and organic
or combustible componentS. The last
group may be separated into two
classes, heterogeneous and non-nitro-
genous substances. The first class In
cludes those generally known as pro-
tein or fesh-forming substances, and
the latter are the carbohydrates and
fat. Protein is used largely for the
production of muscular tissues, casein
in milk, and other animal products.
while the carbohydrates and fat serve
the purpose of supplying the animal
body with heat and producing energy
for work and material for repair Of
tissue and formation of fat. All feeds
contain these two classes of sub
stances in yarying proportions. or

bohydrates and fat the fat has been
found to be about two and one-fourth
times as valuable for the production
of heat as the carbohydrates, and
therefore In combining the fat with
the carbohydrates 1t is first changed
to its carbohydrate basis by multi
plying its amount by 2A. Having
changed the digestibe fat to its car

amount to the amount of digestible
carbohydrates, one Is able to easily
determine the proportion Of digestible
protein to the digestible carbo-
hydrates and fat in the various feeds.

1t is often necessary to throw bull

vicious bull may be cured of habit
of charging his attendant If thrown
every time he tries it. The accom-

be tied about a bull in order to throw
him easily.
In adjusting the rope, pains should
be taken to have it secure about the

ton. Care should be taken to have
the rope Topped in the same manner
at each point where It goes about the
body, which tightens each loop as the
rope is pulled.
One man at the halter and two men
at the rear with the rope Is usually

would be safe to have more help

rope to throw the animal the precau-
ton should be taken of seeing that
each loop about the body is good and
snug, but not SO tight as to cause
the bull to worry. Steadily pulling of
the rope at the rear and at the halter

HAS AUTO
ACCIDENT
DR.. {. HAWKINS HAS MARROW
MARROW ESCAPE FROM
BEING KILLED

Sunday morning DIR. Z. H. Hawk
ins had a narrow escape from being
crushed to death when his automo-
bile plunged over the Markleeville
grade, turning a complete somer-
sault and landed right side up.
The physician was responding to
call from Markleeville and in CO.
ing down the grade at a point a
short distance this side of that town,
he glanced across the canyon for
what to him seemed but a second.
When he again directed his eyes to
the road he found that the car had
left the road and was about to
plunge over the grade. He made a
frantic effort to jump but was pre-
vented from doing SO by the top.
He dropped to the floor of the car
and retained that position when the
auto turned over by hanging to the
steering column. He was badly
bruised about the hands and body
but was not seriously hurt. The
top and wind shield of the auto were
demolished and the front axle bent.
Other than than that the damage
was slight.
After the accident the doctor
walked to Markleeville attended to
his professional call, after which the
auto was snaked back to the road
and was driven to Gardnerville
under its own power.
1t was only few weeks ago that
DR.. Hawkins traded in his touring
car and took delivery of a roadster
that he was driving at the time of
the accident.

ORE BRINGS
GOOD RETURNS
SHIPMENT FROM RUBY HILL
MINE NETS $4,000
PER TON,

K. c. Walker, of the Ruby Hill
mine, received returns from the
Thompson smelter this week for hi is
first carload of ore and he is well
pleased with the results. The car
load of ore netted $4,000 after pay
ing smelter charges, freight and
other expenses. The ore netted
$1,000 per ton.
Other Shipments to the smelter
are to follow and ore is now being
sacked at the mine. The first ship
ment was of average ore from the
Ruby Hill and no picked rock was
shipped.
Mr.. Walker has demonstrated that
pay ore is to be found in Pine Nut
but not in a prospect hole. You
must sink to get the values and the
deeper the workings at the Ruby
Hill are carried the richer the cop
per values become. With this prop
erty advanced into the shipping
class. newer and better things can
be expected of this neglected and
mistreated mining district that lies
