LIKE The WOLF AND LAMB
Inoffensive Creatures Most unjustiy
Charged With Sudden Attack
Of 6Ioodshirstiness.

A man who was caught in the act
of skinning a neighbor's sheep, GOV.
cred his embarrassment by declaring
that no sheep could bite him and live.
The logic of this Is equaled by that
Of the Yankee soldier who once had a
narrow escape from an enraged gan.
der. The men of a certain Maine regi-
ment. which was In the enemy's coun-
try in 1862, considered the order mo
Yoraging" an additional and uncalled-
for hardship. One afternoon about
dusk, a soldier was seen beating q
rapid retreat from the rear Of farm
house near by, closely pursued by
gander with wings outspread, whose
feet seemed scarcely to touch the
ground, and from whose beak issued a
succession OF angry screams. The
fugitive was not treasured by the cries
Of the gander's owner: Hold on,
man. hold on! He won't hurt you!"
Call of your gander! Call him Off"
shouted the fleeing soldier. Neither
man nor gander stopped until inside
the camplines, when the soldiers
friends relieved him OF his fierce pur-
isuer with the aid of the butt of a
musket. did that gander think he
could chase me like that and live!"
the soldier exclaimed, as he surveyed
the outstretched bird; but he said
nothing OF the baited hook, with cod
line attached, which might have
thrown light on the unfortunate gan.

More than third of the $50 Zion

The fight came as the climax Of a

CHEAP RATION
FOR THE HORSE
Corn.Alfalfa Feed Found TO Re
a. Good as Data and Lees
Expensive IN q
Kansas Test.

In the big experiment with govern
ment horses at Fort Riley Just COM
pleted by the Kansas Agricultural col.
lege 1t was found that other feeds
may be substituted entirely for oats
In q ration for work horses with as
good results and much cheaper. The
results Of this test. in which S37
horses were used. was made public
for the first time at the state insti-
tute.
Fifteen rations were fed to as many
lots Of horses and every meal for
every one Of those 937 horses was
weighed and mixed in the proper pro-
portions. Military discipline helped
to make the experiment a success.
Soldiers at Fort Riley. where the feed.
Ing was done, were under orders to
do the work with the utmost care. Ev-
cry horse was weighed before and
after the test. The average weight Of
the horses used was 1.15O pounds.
They were artillery horses doing as
much work as horses on the farm.
To ind. II possible, q grain or mix
ture OF grains that would take the
place OF oats as horse feed and give
a. good results. but be more econom-
ical. was one object OF the test. An
other reason for the experiment was
to find the value Of various hays for
horsefeeding purposes. Still another
was to determine the effect Of grains
on the health Of the animals used. All
these questions were answered.
Oats. once and for all. was proved q
better feed for work horses than corn,
though more expensive. Seventy-six
horses fed oats gained 16 pounds-an
average gain-while the same number
OF horses eating corn lost 20 pounds
apiece in the same time. But corn,
when fed with the proper amount Of
alfalfa with the right quality, gave a.
good results as oats and was 80 per
cent. cheaper. Alfalfa hay. properly
fed. was found to be a more valuable
roughage than either timothy or prai-
RE hay, and 1t cheapens the cost OF
tho daily ration from Is to 40 per cent.
The ration six parts Of corn, four of
oats. four OF bran. and timothy hay
probably Is the best that can be fed q
work horse. though not the cheapest.
Horses fed an oat ration did not show
any more spirit than those that ate
corn. which disproves an old theory
