Oldest Melshman.

The oldest Welshman in the world
is Mr.. Thomas Morris, who lives at
Westernville, Neb. Although he IL
now an American citizen, he was born
a subject of George III. at the little
village Of Berriew. Montgomeryshire.
on January Is, 1894. He Is therefore
one hundred and twenty years old.
His father was an agricultural la
borer and died when the boy was three
years old. Morris was apprenticed to
cobbler and followed his trade In
this country until 1871, when, at the
age of seventy-nine, he emigrated to
America.
The old man Is very proud Of the
fact that he has lived In three GEN.
turtles. He remembers the union OF
Great Britain and Ireland, the assassi-
nation of President Lincoln and the
laying of the first Atlantic cable.
Morris can still walk with the ale
of a stick and see with the aid Of
spectacles, which he first purchased
after passing his hundredth birthday.
His hearing is good, and he enjoys .

PROPERLY BALANCED RATIONS
Report Of Results Of Tests Made by
Illinois StationLDigestibIe
Nutrients Saved.

By II. r. FLINT, Minnesota Experiment
Station.)
A balanced ration Is "one In which
each of the different food materials OF
nutrients is present In just the right
proportion and amount to meet the
needs of the animals" says Bulletin
159 Of the Illinois agricultural expert
ment station. Tests indicated that
cows fed balanced rations yielded a
pound of butter fat for each II pounds
of total nutrients consumed, while
81 pounds were consumed to a pound
of butter fat when an unbalanced ra-
tion was fed. The use of the balanced
ration thus saved four pounds of d.
gestible nutrients for each pound Of
butter fat produced, or pound and a
quarter Of butter fat was produced by
the same number of pounds of digesti-
BILE nutrients in balanced rations as
was required for pound of butter fat
when the unbalanced ration was fed
Not only was the butter fat more
economically produced, but the cows
given a balanced ration finished the
test with better appetites and in much
better flesh and general physical con-
dition than the others. 1t Is not spe-
cially difficult to gain the profit re-
sulting from the balanced ration.

forgiveness never before exhibited by
sage or prophet.

Costly Literature.

Perhaps the costliest book ever is
sued was that written and published
a few years ago by wealthy Ameri-
can, who spent most of his life and a
large fortune in the collection of speci-
mems of jade. Only hundred copies
of the book were printed, and these
cost over s1s0,OO0, or about $500
per copy.
It was a marvellous production. but
scarcely so interesting as the Hon.
Walter Rothschild's book on Extinct
Birds" which represented many years
of labor and cost its author some
thing like 100000 to produce. Mr..
Rothschild stipulated that the book
should be turned out in imperishable
form, as 1t was improbable that the
subject would ever be done again and
he wished the work to endure for all
time Only 800 copies were printed
in English for private circulation, the
price of each copy being $525.

to NOW the grass each year and either
