AVOIDING WASTE OF BREAD
Economy Easy to Practice and by No
Means insignificant as Mat
ter Of Expense.

There are many ways In which
bread may be wasted
Bread. where economy Is studied
should not be eaten before 1t is SO
hours old. and It becomes stale and
nnpalatable after three days. The
bread should be stored In cool place
which Is free from dampness.
In the pantry should stand special
covered receptacle for pieces of bread,
crusts and scraps. A large earthenware
pan, wooden butter tub or box or a
large flour tub may be utilized.
This should be kept clean, emptied
every day or every two days. wiped
out carefully, and loose crumbs re.
moved. and scalded or scrubbed once
a week. for unless this is done the
bread quickly become moldy and unfit
for use All crusts. heels of loaves,
trimmings from toast. etc, that can.
not be used at once should be placed
In this.
There are a great many ways OF
using tho accumulated pieces. prin-
cipaily In the form of puddings. When
the housekeeper arranges the menu
for the day. buildings In which bread
ran be introduced should be often
served. though not necessarily in the
same form.
In every fixed menu provision should
be made in II for daily use of pieces
Of bread. It Is difficult to detect the

ALFALFA AND BROOD MARES
In Irrigated Section Many Colts Born
Dead on Account of Feed--Give
Some Grain With Hay.

Alfalfa hay has a very great field
Of usefulness in feeding all classes
Of live stock under western condi.
tons, but 1t cannot safely be fed to
brood mares in unlimited quantities.
writes Prof. e. ]. Iddings.
From some sections of the irrigated
belt have come some reports of
large percentage of colts born dead
or weak and deformed In some cases
is undoubtedly responsible. In many
cases, however, when colts are most
in the manner heretofore mentioned.
the farmers are feeding alfalfa alone
to their mares. 1t should not be so
fed. For best results with the brood
mare some grain should be fed in
addition to the hay. In case 1t is de-
sired to feed a large amount of hay
as compared with the grain, the hay
ration will be improved and made
safer by combining wild hay, tim
othy or even oat or wheat straw with
the alfalfa. In no event should brood
mare weighing 1900 to 1900 pounds
be fed more than Is or 16 pounds of
alfalfa daily.
A sole ration Of alfalfa hay contains
a much larger proportion Of nitrogen
than the in-foal mare needs or can
use. The surplus must be eliminat-
ed as waste, and the condition lays
an extra burden on the digestive
tract and on the organs of elimina-
ton. Especially heavy is the labor
placed on the kidneys

TOWNER'S STORY OF MEXICAN
 AFFAIRS

l.. F. Towner, for the past five years in Mexico. returned yesterday and like other refugees, reiterates what others have said of the coun- try. In many sections the life of the American is insecure. while property interests are at the mercy of both warning clements. Bandits roam everywhere, while the rebel and federal forces exact the strict est regard for neutral observance, and especially is this true toward the American, For seeming yio- iation of a custom that had no weight or consideration to justify his arrest, Mir. Towner was thrown into a prison for over two months, and during that time was not ac corded the slightest consideration in being tried for an imaginary crime. At the time he had few hundred dollars on his person. He was re- leased when his finances reached the last dollar, and with that sum he started for the line. He stated yesterday that he has turned his back on Mexico for keeps.
