FOR FATTENING THE LAMBS
Experiments With sheEled Corn and
Alfalfa Hay Furnish Valuable
Comparison for Breeder.

w. G. Coffey, chief in sheep husband
ry at the University Of Illinois, has
completed his experiments on the pro-
portion of shelled corn and alfalfa hay
for fattening Western lambs. The ex-
pertinent also furnishes a valuable
comparison of the feeding and market
qualities of wether and eve lambs and
shows the effects of early and late
shearing on the feeding operations as
a whole
Western lambs which had been pur-
chased on the Chicago market about a
year ago were used in the experiment
These we're divided into two main
groups. Group one was fed the largest
quantity Of corn that it was possible
to get the lambs to consume, with just
enough hay to keep them healthy and
thriving. Group two was fed large
amount of hay, with just enough corn
to put them in choice market condi-
ton.
In experiment or group one, four lots
of wether lambs were fed as nearly as
possible like two of the lots of wether
lambs. In experiment No. three lots
of lambs were shared early and three
were sheared late.
In each experiment the lambs receiv-
ing the largest proportion of corn made
the largest gains. The difference be-
tween wether and eve lambs in feed
ing and market qualities were slight.
ShOrn lambs ate more feed than I'M
shorn lambs in warm weather, but
there was little difference between
them in gains and no difference in
market quality. Lambs left in the
fleece until the end of the experiment
sheared from to IT'S pounds per head
more than early-shorn lambs, and on
this account returned more profit.

Cute-Rather.

The smuggling of precious stones
into New York is perhaps one of the
liveliest of live" industries in spite of
all the efforts of the authorities to
stop it. Some of the tricks employed
seem to touch the limit of human in
genuity Perhaps the cleverest trick
in this line-cleverest because the
simplest-stands to the credit Of a
Chicago man.
He would buy 100000 worth of dia-
monds in London or Amsterdam, and
hide them behind a panel of the wall
of his cabin. On the ships arrival at
New York he would walk calmly
ashore, leaving the stones behind him
in their hiding-place, but going
straight to the booking Office and en-
gaging the same cabin for the return
voyage. When the time came for
the vessel to sail he went on board
accompanied by his wife. The lady,
of course, must go to inspect her hus-
bands cabin, and when at length the
bell rang and the lady walked ashore
with the rest of the visitors, her peck
cts were heavier by the weight Of
100000 worth of diamonds.-London

EXECUTE AMERICANS
KILLED BY HERRERAyS FORCES
AS LATTER CAPTURE TOWN
OF PARAL.
VILLA REJECTS NEW TERMS
Aauas CaIientes Convention May Re-
nounce First Chief Because Of Ac-
tion-Mexican Priests May Start
Holy War.

FL Paso, Tex, Oct 28.-James Breu-
denstein of Ell Paso and Edward 2.
Baker Of Philadelphia were executed
by Herrera's forces when they sue
ceeded in capturing the town of Paral,
says a telegram to Carranza's con-
sulate here.
The two Americans we're part OF
the Villa garrison who were defending
Paral when the Herrera forces at
tackled. They were executed with the
$50 men who were captured by Her.
rera's crowd.
The Villa consulate and officers in
Juarez say that the town was not ia
ken by Herrera's men, but that after
they had taken the two other cartels
they were driven away and routed by
General Chao, who is in command OF
Villas forces at Paral.
From Aguas Calientes came infor-
nation that CarranZa had made three
impossible conditions as the basis for
his retirement. The first is that Villa
relinquish control of any part of the
country; second, that Villa relinquish
his command to man named by Car
rama; third, that the plan Of Guada-
lupe be revised.
These were promptly refused, and
Carranza retorted that he would drive
Villa and Zapata out of the country.
The next step at Aguas Calientes is
expected to be the announcement of
Carranza by the conference and dec
laration for Villa, backed by Zapata.
A "holy war" in Mexico as coun-
ter-revolution against the Carranza-
Villa embr0glio has been threatened,
according to reports brought here by
Americans and Mexicans from Guada-
lajara. They told of uprisings against
the constitutionalist authorities led by
Mexican priests.
Washington, Oct. 28.-Indications
that General Carranza had agreed to
retire in Difference to the wishes of
the Mexican national convention at
Aguas Calientes were contained in Of
hcial dispatches to the state depart
ment
1t is generally understood that Car
rama informed the committee that he
would not submit his resignation sec
ond time, leaving it to the convention
to reconsider if it chose the action
taken at the recent Mexico City con-
vention.
Officials of the Washington govern
ment had no doubt that Tho fw0 ooD
ditions which Carranza was reported
to have stipulated as necessary before
ne would retire-namely, that the ten
nre Of the provisional government be
brief and that he be permitted to be a
candidate for the presidency in the
elections to be ordered would be sat
Isfactorily met by the convention.

Sheep will not bear neglect and

Long and hard pulling makes wind
broken horses.
Never punish horse for something
he cannot help.
The surplus horses on many farms
eat up the profits.
There is no animal more unprofit-
able than poor sheep.
If a SOW breeds well and is a good
mother, keep her until she is old.
The farmers team should be one
well adapted to his requirements.
The most profitable beef, pork or
mutton is that put upon the market
early.
Badly constructed stable floors have
injured many more horses than hard
work.
Keeping the wagon and buggies we'll

horses.
Allowing the manure to accumulate
in the stable may be convenient. but
It is unhealthy for the animals.

FARMERS SCHOOL
Increased Attendance at the
Lectures Today Inter
t~ere.ting Subjects.

The attendance at the lectures of
the short course 'school in agriculture
yesterday was fair for the first day and
considerable interest was manifested
by the farmers. The evening enter
tainment at the opera house drew a
large crowd, to~wnspeople generally
attending this feature of the school.
The evening program is the only en-
tertainment provided by the short
course, all other meetings being devot-
/ ed to solid business, and in order to
get full benefit farmers and others
interested should make a business of
attending these lectures.
The number of people in the city
today to attend the short course was
considerably increased and increased
audiences appeared at the lectures.
The school at the opera hou'e this
| forenoon consisted of lectures IN al
Ifalfa growing by Prof. Hall and beef
| cattle by Prof. Morrison. As alfalfa
is becoming one of the most important
products of the state, Prof. Halls lee
ture was listened to with much in
terest. In the afternoon discussion OF
alfalfa growing and beef cattle was
continued by the same speakers.
Stock Judging classes were also held
in the Madison Auto Supply Co,
garage. This was very interesting and
instr uctive.
The home economics department at
the court house under the direction
of Miss Kellar is an attractive place
for the ladies. This afternoon the
subject was meat substitutes. There is
a fine display of culinary articles and
household goods generally on exhibit
tion in the economics department.
The entertainment at the opera house
this evening will be provided by the
i State Normal school, consisting oil
music by Normal orchestra, reading by
Miss Myrtle Bakewell, solo, Miss Edna
Murphy, and debate between Normal
and High School teams, the subject Of
equal suffrage, the High School team
taking the affirmative and the Normal'
the negative.
The display of farm products at the

will close at IL clock tomorrow

arranged is perhaps the most sttrac'
tive. but the display of small grain
and vegetables is also interesting.

The short course is without doubt tht
most valuable school of instruction fol
farmers ever held in Madison, and tn,
speakers should be encouraged by large
audiences at their lectures. The shor
course here is largely an experiment t.
determine whether it would be superior
to a farmers institute of a day or TIVE
duration, and it's success will deter
mine whether it will be held iu thi
