AT THE CONCERT.

tist of the lyric stage in the towns re-

Nine. Alma Gluck was greeted by a
larger audience than has assembled
for any singer in Topeka this winter.
What with the encouragement that
has been given to high class music To-

turing her people in its sanctuary.
This Alma Gluck, who Is new to our
audiences. though she has become an

own, partly because she is young,
slenderly graceful and beautiful of
face, but chiefly because of her mag
netic presence and her ingratiating
and radiant personality that is quite
individual and unmistakable. Ac-
cordingly, there is a ''style" about her
singing that is almost as great a fac
tor in her success as the beauty Of her
voice. In everything she sings there
is discernable strong personal note.
a richness and an undercurrent of
feeling that make for charm, power
and distinctiveness.
For the casual music lover who
thinks of a formal concert with fur
rowed brow, the program given Thurs
day afternoon at the Grand had a mes
sage. 1t showed that the music that
critics have pronounced the best may
be the source Of spontaneous pleasure
and that it's appeal may be as instant
and penetrating as that Of the simple
songs of our childhood. All music on
which time has set its seal of approval
is melodious. That chosen for yester-
days recital may be described as

GOOD FEED ONLY
MAKES DAIRY PAY
Cow Cannot Produce Good Milk
Unless Given Ample Supply OF
Nourishing Food.
CIV GEORGE II. IIL1TzKEJ

With good COWS there must also be
good feeding. The dairy COW can not
produce good milk without a good
supply Of nourishing food from which
to produce milk. Also the food given
might be very rich in feeding value,
but often not enough Of it is fed to
the COW.
Thus the COWS get only food enough
to maintain their bodies and very lit
tie of it goes to production OF milk.
This, of course, would be feeding at
q loss, when a little more food added
to this would all be turned to milk, as
the other food has already supplied
the wants of the body, and this extra
is the paying food. The milk it pro-
duces pays for it and leaves q clean
profit beside.
Therefore, can we afford to with
hold this extra food and feed only
enough to maintain the body? Such
feeding would certainly not be profit
able.
So in place Of economizing with the
feed, it would be better to give the
COWS a rich supply, and get the milk
which, after all, is what we are feed
ing for.
But there comes the question of
what is good supply Of food? we
might supply the cows with an unllm-
tied amount Of food-in fact. we might
supply them with all they can con-
sumo and still get no milk-how OF
worth, If such food does not contain
the proper nutriments.
1t is not only a bulk Of food that rs
necessary, but it is the nutritive value
of the food given, that counts.
AS concentrated foods are the rich
est in food value, the COWS should
be supplied with such food as wheat
bran and ground corn at least twice a
day with their ration.
This gives them high per cent. OF
protein and fat, which they cannot get
from the hay.
Poor feeding is an utter waste OF
the food that the cows eat, and the
time and labor of acring for them
while the good feeding will pay for
the feed and the labor, and leaves
a clean profit. Can we then afford to
withhold the necessary food?
If the dairy is not paying there 10
something wrong. Either the cows
gre. poor, or the management is poor.
There is a way to make it pay. Let
us study our business and seek this

BREED AND HANDLE
/. HORSES AND MULES
Each Mare Should Have Special
Place Where She Is Tied to
Receive Daily Grain Feed.

The pleasure and the satisfaction
of breeding and handling good horses
remain, long after the cost of the
foundation stock is forgotten.
In mild weather mares must be kept
outside in the open sheds, both day
and night. Each mare should have a
special place where she is tied to re-
ceive her grain feed. If fed from an
ordinary trough, the more vicious
mares may kick the others, and COB
BILE most Of the feed. Roughage may
be fed safely from the racks in the
yard.
Wheat, bran and oats for grain, and
clover, alfalfa, or mixed hay makes q
fine ration for the growing colts.
During the first winter, provide
some sort of sheltered yard for the
colts, SO that they may run about and
exercise for a few hours every day
when the weather is not too stormy.
Large draft horses furnish the
Drawn to save mems energies for the
work that requires skill and care.
If you have mules on the farm that
are coming two years old, break them
now-that is, work for half day at
a time-it won't hurt them; but on
the other hand will do them good.
The mule is easily broken, as all
farmers who have handled them will
testify, but it is a good thing to get
them used to being handled before
they get too old; then they are ready
for the regular work when you need
them.
The great superiority of the mule
concists in his greater endurance of
heat and severe labor, and ability to
subsist on less food. He is undoubt-
edly the most economical machine for
the production of power.

A good draft horse should be fairly
low set, blocky, deep and wide, and
should be symmetrical or well pro-
portioned and should stand squarely
on comparatively short, straight legs.
The good stallion should show lots OF
style, carrying his head we'll with ears
erect and showing life and spirit.
The draft stallion should have
strong masculine, yet refined head,
with good width of forehead, clean-cut
face, large, bright eyes, well set ears
and firm lips. Heads too fine are OBJ
iected to, as is also the dished face;
but an inclination to a Roman nose in
the stallion considered desirable by
most horsemen.
The neck should be rather long,
clean-cut throat latch and set up on
top of the shoulders and not straight
In front like the head of a COW. The
shoulders should have good slope and
the withers should be strong and well
laid into the back. Sloping shoulders
allow the head to be carried we'll up
and distribute the draft evenly along
the collar. The back should be COM
paratively short with arched ribs, Civ
Ing the barrel-like appearance of
roundness. The loin should be short,
well packed with muscle, and the
tanks should be low. Short coupled,
low-flanked horses are generally
strong and easy goers.
The forearm and gaskin should be
heavily muscled and strong. Below
the knees the leg should appear wide
and fat with clean, strong bone and
tendons. The pasterns should be OF
fair length and should slope about DO
degrees from large, wellrounded
foot. The foot should have consider
able depth, and width at the heel is
also important The hind legs should
be straight with a wide, clean hook,
