WHAT CATTLE WILL DO
FOR MISSISSIPPI
FARMERS

The combined influence Of th'
department Of agriculture, the agri
cultural colleges, agricultural paper:
and farmers Institutes have for tht
past twenty-five years hammered
away in an effort to make the grow
ing of live stock an important feat
ure of southern agriculture. Thi:
has been especially true over tha
portion of the cotton belt that the
boil Weevel has reached or is ex.
pected to reach in his wake of de.
vastation; but notwithstanding this
oft-repeated advice Of the demon.
strated possibilities of the industry,
few farmers have taken advantage
of the wonderful opportunities which
this section offers in this respect.
Southern experiment stations have
done much work along this line.
especially with beef cattle and in
each case the results obtained sur
passed all expectations even under
the most unfavorable circumstances
Bulletin No. 158 issued by the
Alabama Station, October, 1911,
shows conclusive!y what beef cattle
will do to this section. Three sep
arate experiments were conducted,
using lots Of II, So and "a grade
calves respectfully, with the object
of determining whether a farmer can
profitably raise and fatten calves for
the market, and t9 make a comparas
tive study Of combinations of SOUTH
ern feeds for fattening purposes. In
these experiments the calves were
furnished by Alabama farmers and
experiments made on the respective
farms. Complete records were kept
and satisfactory profit had in each
case. But the overshadoWing feat
ure of these experiments Is In show
ing the farmer how to sell his grain
and roughage at an amazing high
price. BY selling the farm products
through these calves, the farmers
not only found a ready market, but
realized S1.37 per bushel or s48.62
per ton for cQrn that cost so cents
per bushel; S43.50 for cotton seed
meal that cost $1,000 per ton;
S11.s1 for cotton seed hulls that
cost 500 per ton; S21 "a for alfalfa
hay that cost $500 per ton and
S56.o1 per ton for peavine hay.
though but little was used and this
price is abnormaly high. One lot
of the calves also paid S1.06 per
head per month for pasture rent.
From the above figures it is safe
to conclude that the farmer may OBJ
tain a reasonable profit on beef cat
tie when raised and fattened on the
farm. That by selling his grain and
hay to cattle he finds a ready market
and can realize much more on his
raw farm products than if sold as
grain and hay; al the same time he
retains two thirds of the fertilizing
value of his feeds in the form of
manure to be use in enriching his
soil.
The above facts are so convincing
and alluring that we cannot under
stand why the farmers Of this sec
ton ave not given stock growing
more consideration. Certainly it
would be found profitable.
Good pasturage and roughage are
important requisites in the live stock
industry and in this respect we
should take second place to none in
the country. With alfalfa, lesped-
eze, oowpeas, soy and velvet beans,
sorghum, bermuda, johnson grass
and other native grasses, we can
have early and late pastures.

Detroit Protestant pulpits were filed

Joseph T. Talbert, New York,
Financier, Makes Plea For
Conservative Banking
SAYS CHECK SHOULD BE
PLACED ON BORROWING
Repeats Statement That New
Tariff Will Not Injure
Business Interests

World finances and their bearing on
the business situation in this country
were the subject of q close analysis
by Joseph 7. Talhert, vice-president Of
the National City bank, Of New York.
in a paper read before the thirty-first
semi-annual meeting and dinner of the
Bankers club Of Detroit, In the Hotel
Cadillac. Saturday night. The fnan-
cier from the east pointed out the
possibility Of seriously unbalancing
consequences arising In the financial
systems Of the leading nations Of the
world as result Of the commercial
development of those industriOusly
backward countries which are now
just waking up. The paper was an
argument for more conservative bank
ing.
Discussing the proposed new tarif
incidentally, Mr.. Talbert repeated the
statement made to G.ie Times ea. lie,
I'm the day. that the business world
has already discounted the reductions
contemplated by the new schedules,
and that, therefore. no untoward ef-
feet need be expected to follow. How
ever he said Il am not one Of those
who believe that the consumer Will be
greatly benefited in the way OF lower
retail prices"
By way OF leading up to his main
theme, he quoted English authorities
to show that England Is being drained
OF her gold supply by demands grow
ing out OF the commercial advance Of
India.
But China now claims our atten-
tion," said the speaker. THE nations
must all reckon with her. The util-
ization ow her vast resources will alb
sorb enormous amounts Of money.
What India Is to England, China will
be to the world"
Mr.. Talbert advised the bankers to
be more chary Of granting loans. Re-
ferring to the rapid growth Of credit
liabilities since 1909, he said: 1T Is
to be feaerd that we are breaking the
speed limit with our credit machine.
You should urge manufacturers TO
postpone all borrowing whenever pos
sible, and warn them against support
ing themselves through note brokers
except for seasonal needs. There Is,
however, one very hopeful sign in the
imitation Of credit we are experiencing.
and that Is the fact that II Is wanted
for legitimate business and not for
speculation"
The banquet was presented over by
the president OF the club. George 4.

address there was a short response
by the Rev. ]. Percival Huget.

Theodore Roosevelt came to Mar
Quette today. to fight the charge that
re Is drunkard. His suit for $4,000
damages against George A. Newett, OF
lshpeming. owner and editor OF Iron
Ore, a weekly morning paper, comes

this afternoon.
His attorneys say they are attack.
ing not Newett alone, but through

story Newett printed-that "Roose-
yelt gets drunk and that not infre-

The substance of the afildavits on
which the bulk OF Newetts case will
rest became known today, though the
documents themselves are under seal.
The greater part OF this evidence was
collected in Ohio along the route OF
Rcosevelt's campaign trip last fall.
The afiidavits charge that in Athens,
Bellfountaine. Jackson, Urbana and
Martins Ferry, Roosevelt was assist
ed TO the platform by an attendant at
each elbow, and third behind, that
he exhibited symptors Of excitement,
and conducted himself generally in
such a manner as to lead the witness
es to believe he was under the infiu-
cnce OF liquor. There is little diverg-
euce between the sworn statemnts, or
which, for xample, 10 were taken in
Athens alone.
