CONCERNING THE PRESS.

IRIS. LYSANDER JOHN APPLE
WI TON was entertaining her fool
est friend Having told her
foo,est friend all her troubles. and sigh
ed so heavily she tozted the staying
powers Of her straight front corset. she
made u mental acrobatic turn from ner
domestic woes to the wrongs Of the
world She attacked the daily rewspa-
pers, referring to it in pompedpur tones
as The Press
If l had a voice in The Press. she
said, 81 would make every news item
IN the paper an appeal 10 the heart.
And by that ] mean the heart OF the
woman reader. The men" reverting to
he. domestic woes, have no hearts.
The Press tells of the fall of some
town IN Turkey, whose name is abso-
lutcly unpronounceable. Il tells what
the effect Of this war will be on the
map Of the world, but not one hint as
to how il will affect the price Of Turk
ish RUGS
Her fooiest friend agreed that The
Press was run by lot Of men who
don't know anything, anyhow.
why" continued Mrs Appleton. in a
sputter of Indignation at the ignorance
Of The Press. "one day called up .
Leading Newspaper and asked the pop
ulation Of Kalamazoo before the civil
war, and do you know, the man who
answered the telephone couldn't tell me ?
And, just To test them, / called up
five Leading Newspapers. and not one
could tell on-hand in what year the
wife of President Madison died."
The toolest friend tossed her head,
showing contempt for every one who
ever worked on q newspaper.
Mrs. Lys"nder John continued in q
more sympathetic tone. ~ ann $50 sorry
for Mrs Taft. l know what it is 10
have to move and leave clean house
for the next tenant"
Then she expressed her deepest sym.
patty for Emperor Wilhelm, who was
Jumped in the Relchstag, though" she
complained, The Press is so ignorant
It doesn't say II the Reichstag is a hotel,
or part OF his anatomy one must
guess so much in reading The Press
these days."

DON'T TELL HIM NOW.
Dear Miss Fairfax

DCdi MISS L an AttA
Some time ago l met a young
man of whom l have grown very
fond. He cares for me dearly and
hopes to make me his wife some
day. He works both day and night
as he supports his mother and is
trying to gather something for the
future
Last week I gave him an invita-
ton To a party. l also asked him
to go with me cas- he would not go
alone being a stranger). He gave
me his reason why he could not 60.
which | know was the truth. as his
mother will not allow him to 90
with a Gentle girl. The next time
we met he asked me who / went
with, and he seemed to be disap-
pointed when l told him. Tho verv
same day he tried to put him arms
about me before other boys (whom
we both know very welD. to which
] objected. He grew avery angry
and said If | really cared for MIN
would not mind him doing such q
little thing before anyone. not alone
close friends, I have never told
him I cared for him.
A BROKEN HEARTED Girl.
Marriage with him seems hopeies
for two reasons. 1t will be long tim
before he earns enough to support
wife, and the difference in religion doe
not promise happiness.
He shows a proprietary air towar
you when no engagement exists. H
is selfish. Try to forget him, my deal
If his mother ill not let him take yo
to a party. o. you realize how muc
more serious her objections will b
when he takes yru for wife?

Now that there is so much discussion
as TO the rate at which doctors are to
paid for their services under the in
surAnce act, II Is interesting to read OF
the singular way in which Welsh mon
srchs used TO pay their doctors. At the
court Of the dwynedd kings the ply
stefan or surgeon ranked twelfth in or
der Of precedence among the household
officials, and his fees were carefully de-
fined For curing a flesh wound that
was not dangerous the doctor was al
lowed no other perquisite than such OF
the garments Of the wounded person as
were stained with blood. But for cur
ing any OF what were called the three
dangerous wounds" he was granted a

HOW TO JUDGE FEED

purpose of this letter is to explain briefly the meaning of the terms used in the chemical analysis of feed, as required will mean something to the consumer. Taken in connection with letter No il on Stock Feeds' written by Dr. C. H. Hoffman amp issued the last week of December, 1911, this article will be of some Valg to every man who cares for hIs stock. Letter No. il gives the average analysis that the feeds named therein, should have, to be classed as good feeds; this letter attempts to apply the com on place to the terms used in the analysis, so the feeder may pro- fit thereby.
 The constituents required to be guaranteed under the Arkan- sas Law are: Crude Protein. Crude Fat, Carbohydrates and Crube Fibre, and are the most important from a standpoint of nutrition.
 Protein is the constituent of food which forms mnscle. bone, hair, flesh, fragments and other like portions of the animal. It is the only food substance con- taining nitrogen and is absolutely necessary to animal life. It re- places the wear and tear of the animal tissue and furnishes ma terlal for additional flesh. The term flesh in this connection must not be confounded with fat, flesh is muscle and tissue produced, while fat is a stored product for future energy. With an excess of protein accompanied

 It is the combined { - curative clements of the eods' livers, aided by the blood-making and strength-creating properties of tonic iron contained in Vinol which makes 1t so successful in curing bronchitis
 Vinol is constitutional remedy for chronic coughs, colds. bronchitis and pulmonary troubles-not palliative like cough syrups.

by a deficiency in carbohydrates, it may be used as a producer ot

fat. Protein is the most expen- sive portion of food. With a given food. the more protein 1t contains, the better it's quality. however. the value of a feed cannpt be determined. by the percentage of fat and carbohy- dIatos.
 Fat. in the ease of caacentrat- cd feeding stutfS, is tha oily sub- Stance. principally n tae seeds of tn grain. bat ia tae case of folders and Lays t is often com posed to a considerable extent of wuxes. colorine matleS etc. Fat is 4sed in the aHimiI cody as source of energy and when supplied in excess of that regusf- l ed. it is deposited in the tissues in the form of body fat. at produces almost three times the amount of heat that protein or carboh ydrates produce. F a t ranks next to protein in point of value in a feeding stuff The n ore protein and fat a given foea-e.uif contains, ths etter its  qa-...oy a5 eompar :. ea her feed of the sane and. Two feeds of different kinds cannot be compared on the basis ot their content of protein and fat.
 Carbohydrates is composed of starch, dextrin, sugar and other substances of a similar nature. Comparatively with fat in the production of energy, one pound of fat equals ?. 25 pounds of carbo- bydrates. Generally carbohy- drates serve for the production of energy, but when fed in ex- C. ss of the requirement Of ener- gy they become transformed ln- 10 fat. The carbohydrates Tn common feeds are generally starch and sugaa, which are readily digestible, whiie those contained in rice hulls etc, are enclosed in such heavy walls of celltlose that it cannot be digest ed, consequently not utilized.
 Crude Fibre consists mostly of the cellulose forming walls of cells and the woody fibre of the plant. The cellulose incloses the protein, fat and carbohydrates These walls must be broken down in the process of digestion to render the beneficial constituents of the plant available. Crude fibre alone is almost indigestible, and consequently, of no direct feeding value. Its presence in feed is necessary to assist in the process of digestion, absorption and intestinal movements, but not to any large extent. The more crude fibre a feed contains. the poorer it's quality as compar- ed to feeds of the same kind. Feeding materials of low com mercial value and low value to the animal; such as rice hulls, oat hulls, peanut hulls, corn cobs, etc, contain large quantities of fibre and their addition to a feed ing stuff increase the percentage of fibre and decreases the value of the feed. Thus, if crude fibre exceeds certain limits 1t may ln- dicate rice hulls in rice bran. corn co in corn chops, etc.
 In general we say that the more protein, fat and carbo- hydrates and the less crude fibre a given feed contains as compar- ed with other feeds of the same kind, the better the quality of the feed; the reverse is also true.
