Feeding tests which have been made
show that cooked potatoes have feed
ing value of about one-fourth that of
grain and that to give the best results
they should be fed with grain. Per-

ing of potatoes is that they give a
change and are reIished by the ami
mails that get them.

Governor Listers veto of the $780,

Cheney normal school should, and un'

lof which were not sufficient to assure
their enactment.
The majority of the legislators seem
possessed with the idea that the re-
sources of the state are jackpot, the
contents of which should be distribute

requirements. This method OF DIS

but the increasing tax levy is one OF It's
results.

A draft horse that will weigh 1900
pounds at three years old and fetches
1925 sells at just $40 per hundred
weight. This is good return on the
investment and means better profit
than is realized on the average three
year-old steer. One distinct advantage
that the raising Of the horse has over
the producing Of the steer is that the
price got for him is matter Of supply
and demand the country over and not a
matter Of manipulation, as Is so often
the case with the steer.

about so much animal heat and energy

Blue Ribbon Week at Detroit.

Blue Ribbon Week-August IL to
16-Will furnish another Illuminated
chapter in the history of light har-
ness racing for the year Since 1885
the meetings of the Detroit Driving
Club have been world famous, be-
cause the sport has dominated and
the attraction has been the best that
money and brains could devise.
This year the Blue Ribbon meet
ing will be the greatest single week
OF racing in the country for the rea-
son that more good horses are being
pointed for the contests than ever be-
tore. This Is a part of the revival or
interest in the American sport of the
sulky, which, today, is on the thres-
hold of greater popularity than 1t ever
has known.
Men who now are the backbone OF
the light harness turf are those who
have made a success OF life in pro-
fessional or industrial circles and for
whom this is the one great sport
They are not in it for profit. They
pay eXtravagant prices for horses be-
cause-they glory in victory, and the
public has the privilege of seeing
these animals in action on the fast
mile track at the Michigan state fair
grounds.
One of the hoTses that will start in
the NJ. a. NJ. stake cost $4,000. In
the Chamber of Commerce pacing
stake are two costing $4,000 and
$4,000, and one for which greater
amounts have been refused. The
value placed by the owners on the
horses that will compete in the Blue
Ribbon races will run up to million
dollars. The cost of getting them
ready and of the horses that have
failed 10 come up TO expectations is
almost as much. All of this develop
ment, the result of scientific breeding
and intelligent workmanship on the
part OF the trainers, will be nnfolded
at the annual Blue Ribbon races,
which hold place all their own in
the midsummer glory of Detroit.

Big Show at Port Huron July %.

The somersault, whether 1t be sim
gle or double, is feat which re-
quires the most assiduous practice
and the most mathematical calcula-
ton. The first thing the tumbler
learns is to jump from a spring
board. The sensation of springing
through the air is an uncanny one.
Next is the stock" somersault, which
consists of merely springing up into
the air and slowly, and with prac-
tically no physical exertion, turning
over. The motion is so slow that the
spectator hardly realizes that the
performer has revolved. Then be-
gins the drill for the real somersault.
The double somersault has slain
scores for in turning in mid air one
is apt to light on his head or neck
which would mean instant death.
There are several men who accom-
plish this feat. In far off Hungary
at the Winter Garden Theatre in
Austria, Mr.. b. e. Wallace, the owner
of the MISUNDERSTANDING circus
which comes 10 Port Huron Wednes-
day, July %, for performances at 2
and s p. m, and parade at 10
o'clock. heard of a woman who was
able to accomplish this feat He
.deputized his London agent to inves-
tigate and he reported that member
of the Great Fischer family Of
aerialists was able to accomplish the
double somersault. The act was in
stantly engaged by cable and their
transportation arranged for. The act
is one of the big features of the
Hagenbeck-W Wallace Circus. Miss
Elsie Fischer, the little aerialist who
accomplishes the feat spent eight
years in perfecting IL. At times 1t
appeared as II she would have TO
abandon the idea However, she
finally accomplished the hazardous
feat.
There are some people who say
they have seen triple somersault.
They are mistaken. No man has ever
yet accomplished this feat and live to
tell about it. There are several male
aerialists with the Hagenbeck-Wal-
lace circus who can turn two
and onehalf times over in mid air,
but no one with the show or any
other show has yet performed the
triple somersault. II appears impos-
sible.
