Larger Sales of Cottonseed Meal in
Europe Are Possible.

With little effort American exporter.
Of cottonseed meal could Increase their
sales abroad immensely, according to a
report just issued by the bureau of for
eign and domestic commerce. Although
American cottonseed meal, according to
the bulletin, Is a prime favorite in some
Of the coutries. 1t comprises only IA per
cent of the total Of oil meals and cakes
consumed In Europe for cattle feeding.
By explaining to those feeders who, hay
ing been accustomed to linseed and other
cakes before seed was introduced. are
slow. to change to the new products, 1t Is
said the sales certainly could be in
creased.
Denmark, which is called the greatest
butter country in the world, feeds more
than 200 pounds Of cottonseed cake per
head of cattle per year. This Demon
strates its great value. it is pointed out.

If tthe 2O,OO0.0OO head Of cattle in Ger

pointed out THEY would need all of the

Investors Still Indisposed.
The large distribution of interest and
dividend payments was followed by some
activity in bonds, but investors were
still indisposed to follow this movement
into the stock list. Delay in the freight
rate case continued to act as a strong de-
terrent factor, which even the more al

What Farmer Browns Boy
Did.

OF course when Farmer Browns boy
lifted Off the upper half of the pile OF
old cornstalks in the middle Of which
Danny and Nanny Meadow Mouse had
built their home he had no idea that
any one was living there. 1t is a ques-
ton If Danny and Nanny were any more
surprised than he was. OF course they
ran-ran as fast as ever they could.
They did it to save their lives. At least
that is what they thought. You see it
was all so sudden that they were Just
terribly frightened and when people are
terribly frightened they run away from
the thing that has frightened them. At
least that is what most people do, and
it is what Danny and Nanny did now.
With frightened squeaks they ran along
the secret little galleries Danny had made
for just such q need, And then quite
of the four babies left in that dear little
house. She had remembered:Teeny; Weeny.
Midget and Mite left to the mercy Of
Farmer Browns boy. She couldn't run
another step.
Hurry" saueaked Danny, scampering
on ahead. But Nanny. didn't. Instead
she began to go back. Danny looked
back over his shoulder and saw her
What are" he began, and then he
too, remembered the helpless babies and
a feeling or great shame swept over dnth
at the thought of how he was running
away, and leaving those babies with no
one to even try to protect them. He
turned back and hurried to catch up
with Nanny. Together they peeped cut
to see what Farmer Browns boy was
doing.
He was STOPPING over looking at the
little house they had been so proud Of
when they had built it. "Ha!" said he
I'm afraid you will have to build new
house somewhere else. Danny Meadow
Mouse, for have got to clean up around
here and take away all the old corn
stalks l wonder what the inside Of your
house is like
With that he picked up the house in
his great hands and began to tear it
open to see what it was like inside.

didn't dare go quite to her babies, but
she went just as near as she did dare to.
When Farmer Browns boy had torn
he could see inside he gave a long
whistle of surprise Then very gently
he lifted Teeny and Weeny and Midget
and Mite and held them in the hollow of
one hand while he looked at them close
iy. OF course they were too little to be
much afraid, but they didn't like the
bright light, for YOU know that ever
since they were born they had been in
the dark and now the light hurt their
eyes. So they Struggled together and
tried to get their heads under each
other.
Just then Farmer Browns boy hap
pened to look down straight into the ter
ribly anxious eyes Of Nanny. Slowly
Don't you worry. Mrs Meadow Mouse"
said he. II wouldn't hurt your babies
for the world. I guess I've spoiled your
house and I'm sorry. l wouldn't have
done it if 1 had thought there might
be babies there"
Very gently he put the four babies
back in their bed Of grass and as well
as he COULD, which. of course. was not
very well, he pulled the broken roof to-
gether over them. Then he put the house
back where he had found 1t and stepped
back a few steps, Nanny looked at him
very hard. Then suddenly she darted
forward and into her house.

Browns boy. softly. and began to put
back the cornstalks he had taken from
the pile. When at last the little house
was once more in the middle of the pile
he started on. IN wait until you have
that family off your hands before

saw Nanny's bright eyes anxiously peep

ton they are supported by 200 democrats
in Congress, and that Chairman Henry
has instructed each member that there
shall be no meeting in his absence.

the right to call such a meeting, he said
he had the physical but not the moral
right in the face of the committee agree
ment and party sentiment.

from him the promise that If they got
four democratic members to come and
ask him to call such a meeting he would
do So Then they asked If they got
three others if he would not be the
fourth himself, and he agreed to this,
but he assured them he did not believe
there was d majority OF the committee
in Washington at this time.
The delegation was organized by Miss
Lucy Burns. vice chairman of Congress
