INDICTED FOR MURDER

SAFFORD-D- P. Roberts mas been re-iHdicted by the Graham county grand jury for the murder of Thomas Sullivan, which occurred several years ago in the Guilloro mountains. Since the murder was committed Roberts has been at large, although three sher- ins have searched the country over for him and it remained for Sheriff Alger to finally locate him in Los Angeles, from which point he was brought back.

this was the verdict of the well-known

blonde. and is the daughter OF Mrs.
Lucius J. Elliott of Racine.

II does not require lot OF capital
to become a breeder Of purebred cat
tie, provided a person can be salts
fed to grow In the business rather
than go into It, The first thing to
decide Is what breed meets persons
tastes and conditions best When this
point Is settled, says the Southwestern
Stockman. then a bull OF good breed
Ing should be selected and bred to the
herd, and calves raised from best
cows. The raising OF grade calves Will
give the owner a wider experience
and help him to understand some OF
the finer points concerning the rear
ing OF special-bred dairy cattle.
The knowledge gained by raising
and developing grades will be very
helpful when pure-bred heifer or
two is purchased as foundation stock
OF pure-bred herd. The informa-
ton gained by the care OF grades will
not only be useful. but the selection
of a bull will give an experience. at
least It should, that cannot be gained
in any other way. This step OF select
Ing bull places the dairy farmer in
touch with the breeds of dairy cattle
and he is awakened to the fact that
there Is great difference In bulls.
A pure-bred bull is greater educator
for he Is the means OF leading men
to think and study.
With one or two good heifers it re-
quires but few years to build up q
good herd of pure-bred cattle. In the
selection of pure-bred heifers pains
should be taken to select good AMI
mails. but greater care should be ex-
ercised in the selection OF the bull.
| for 1t Is through the bull the herd II
improved. In other words, the bull
has an influence on every calf born
in the herd. while the COW influence
but one calf a year.
1t therefore becomes the greatest
Importance for dairy farmer to Sc
lect well-bred and good breeding
bull. Very often aged bulls that are
good breeders are offered at prices
little above their value for beef. They
are harder and more dangerous to
handle than a yearling. but this
should not prevent person from
purchasing the aged bull, especially
II he has proven himself a getter of
good stock. The bull must prove his
worth as q breeder Of good stock
just as the COW must prove hers at
the pail.
To summarize briefly. the steps to
be taken by a dairy farmer who do
sires to become a breeder of pure
bred cattle: First. select the breed
that IL preferred and meets condi-
tions best. Second, select q well-bred
bull. and when possible one that has
proven himself . getter Of good
stock. Third, when finances and ex.
perience will permit, buy purebrsd
heifer or two. and from these ami
mails grow into pure-breds.

A bulletin entitled Economical
Beef Production" by II. r. Smith,
has just been issued by the Nebraska
experiment station. This report
gives the results of four experiments
in which comparisons are made of diff
ferent rations suitable for producing
beef in Nebraska and OF different
types and breeds of cattle fed under
like conditions. The general conclu-
sions are as follows:
In comparing bran, linseed-meal
and cold pressed cotton seed cake
each as a source OF protein supple
menting cornmeal and silage. the
cold pressed cake proved to be worth
30 per cent. more per ton than wheat
bran,i and linseed meal is per cent
more per tor than cold pressed cot
ton seed cake.
In the use of each OF these supple
mentary protein feeds with cornmeal
and prairie hay. the cold pressed cot
ton seed cake showed value per ton
20 per cent greater than wheat bran.
and the linseed meal 2S per cent. more
than the cotton seed sake.
Where alfalfa was used in connec-
tion with cornmeal and silage. or
cornmeal and prairie hay. large gains
were made without the use of a CON
centrated protein food. The gains in
both experiments where alfalfa was
fed were larger. less costly and much
more profitable. These experiments,
supplementing what had previously
been found. show that beef can be
produced in Nebraska at lower cost
and with greater profit on combina-
ton OF the corn plant and alfalfa
hay than on any other combination OF
foods available in the state.
These experiments show that corn
silage gives larger gains than shred
ded corn stover when each is fed

what spiritualism means to me"
she said the one fact that stood out
clearly was individual responsibility
and the unlimited power OF self-de-

ahead lay long road OF development
for the soul. AS to the possibility OF
communion with those who had passed

Would that you could see how rare
it is for clear direct spiritual inter
course to take place. see people
sitting in circles who are the victims
of the lower spirits
Her father, said Miss Stead, found 1t
difficult to communicate through her.
because her mind was apt to jump to
conclusions, but many messages had
come through others. In one of them
he spoke of the horrors of the battle
field and "of all those hurried over
here untitled for the spiritual life.
They come in great bands and even
the archangels are powerless to raise
the spirit-it must grow of itself"
In another message he spoke of
the narrowing scenes witnessed by
him during the war. Some OF the
Victims" he said, were higher than
others in the spiritual plane. but most
gravitated to the prison houses and
the da- kness of the spheres"

side Many things that we may have
taken to be correct then, feel now.
with the greater knowledge, he wishes
me to be careful about. He has since
told me that some OF the earlier mes
sages were distorted because his emo
ton in getting back to earth condi-

hold the mediums brain, and his mes
sages were colored by the thoughts of

beef production is worth 60 per cent
more per ton.
Corn stover has q value 80 per cent.
as great is prairie hay. and the por-
ton consumed IL fully as valuable.
Prairie hay at its usual market price
is not profitable for fattening cattle.
In comparing a ration consisting Of
heavy feed Of cornmeal. alfalfa and
light feed OF silage. with ration
consisting of a medium quantity Of
light feed OF corn. alfalfa and heavy
feed OF silage, yearling steers being
fattened for market made cheaper
and more profitable gains on the
larger feed Of corn and smaIled feed
Of corn silage.
In growing calves to be fattened
later for market. the cheapest gains
were made on liberal ration of corn
silage and alfalfa without grain, the
cost OF gains increasing in proportion
to the amount of cornmeal fed.
These experiments show that there
Is great variation In the capacity
OF individual steers to make gains
under like conditions. The data do
not show that the individuals of one
breed make larger gains than those
OF another breed. The variation ia
gain seems to be fully as great within
breed as between representatives
of different breeds.
Type or conformation seems to be
