FEEDING GROWING STOCK
The Nash Plays a Leading Role In
Feeding.
49,, HEloRR

]. w. KELLER.
1t,s puzzling question to many
what to feed and how to feed after the
critical period-the first month OF
chicks life-is safely passed. The
foundation is laid. What will we
huild on it7 Parent stock, housing,
range, sanitary arrangements-these
and a host of other conditions each
play their own important part IN the
answer, but the keystone OF all Is prop
er feeding.
The mash plays the leading role in
most present day feeding, and rightly
~ FOR we can secure in this form feed
that is most accurately balanced and
easily digested, offering a greater va
rtety, greater economy, quicker results
and the highest percentage of digesti-
h;litv For the growing chick, having
been gradually weaned from Its baby
chick food, the following will make an
excellent mash:
Pounds
Bran ........................ ~
Cornmeal .....-'''''''''''''''''''''
Ground oats ...............'.......... ~
Beef scrap .'........'.....''... ~
Bone meal .....-..-...''''.'.'''''''.
Shell meal ...''.''''.'''''''''''''''
To this mash one can also add with
value a pinch Of salt and a proper
amount of reliable regulator or tonic.
The above will be found valuable
mash for use during the second, third
and fourth months Of chicks life,
representing as it does the feeding sys-
tenn of one of Americas most success
full plants, and should be fed at least
twice a day.
When to Feed the Grain.
For scratch grain we must resort
first to the three great staple grains of
the poultryman-corn,w wheat and oats
and these should be mixed in equal
quantities (by weighD for chicks hav-
ing free range. For those which are
confined, however, a small amount of
a variety of other grains, such as mil
let, canary seed, barley, etc. may be
added, and this should be fed about
the middle of the morning, scattered
on the ground or among the litter, and
again in the later afternoon. These
fine grains are chiefly valuable as in
ducing exercise and affording slow
nourishment.
It is almost unnecessary to state that
plentiful supply of good, fresh, cool
h hi Iy Of oil
times, and in addition If they are not
on free range greens and grit must be
provided.
The above system Of feeding, pro-
vided other conditions are fairly nor
NAL, will grow chicks which will have
the health, vitality and capacity that
will mean much future profit.

Features Of The Currency Bill

The long talked of Currency
Bill is now a part Of our National
Banking policy. 1t is intended to
provide for an "elastic currency"
This term, "elastic currency, is
supposed to have been used first by
Lyman Gage, Secretary Of Treas
ury under Mckinley and Roose-
welt. For years he pointed out the
business necessity Of some change
in our banking laws. The promi-
nent features Of the bill are as fol-
lows:
A Federal Reserve Board COM
posed Of the Secretary Of the Treas
ury and six members, to designate
not less than eight nor more than
twelve reserve districts, each with
a Federal reserve bank.
National banks must and other
banks may subscribe to the stock of
reserve banks. If the stock sub
scription is inadequate, stock may
be offered to the public.
OF nine Directors of each reserve
bank, three are to be designated by
the Federal Board.
Stockholders are to receive div
idends up to 6 per cent.
Reserve banks are to rediscount
paper of other reserve banks.
Employees Of the Federal Board
are not to be protected by the civil

service.
The Government is to make de-
posits in Federal reserve banks,
which are empowered to discount
notes. etc., arising from acutal
transactions. ;,
Notes, ETC., based on live stock
and agricultural products and ma
turing in six months may be dis
counted
Circulating notes are to be issued
by Federal reserve banks and cir
culated by the member banks.
Every Federal reserve bank must
maintain reserves in gold or law
full money of not less than 80 per
cent.
The amount of gold in each Fed
eral reserve bank, together with the
amount deposited by it with the
Treasury, shall equal 40 per cent
of the Federal reserve notes IN ac-
tual circulation.
Fedral reserve notes shall be Sc
cured by commercial paper OF pre-
scribed character and maturity.
Not less than 5 per cent. gold to1

HOW TO WASH DISHES

After getting up from the table,
carry the dishes to the kitchen and
scrape all the scraps off of the
dishes and pile them in separate
piles. Then go and crumb your
table and get it in order for the
next meal. Next, you must have
warm water, three pans, towels, a
dish cloth and a piece Of soap. Fill
the dishpan about three-quarters
full of warm water and put one
pan next to the dish pan and fill it
about half full of luke-warm water.
The draining pan comes next. The
greasy dishes should be rinsed be-
fore putting into the clean water
because water will not get so dirty.
Wipe the dishes and carry them in
to the dining-room for the next
meal. Throw the water out and
get some clean water to wash the
cooking utensils. They should be
washed thoroughly and lots Of soap
used. Dry them and put them into
the closet. Throw out the water,
dry the pans and put them away.

SCHOOL NOTES
Seventh Grade Writers
Discuss Home Duties

That many wise parents believe
in training their children to be use
full at home, and to be kind to ami
mails, is proved by the following
compositions chosen by popular
vote from the classwork Of Seventh
Grade upon the following subjects:
How | Make Bread; How l Sweep
a Room; How | make Bed; How
| Make a Cake; How | Wash
Dishes; How l Clean the Yard;
How | Care for Horses; How 1
Make a Fire.
Each subject was treated in
manner which showed the writer s
thorough familiarity with the work
described.
THE CARE OF HORSES
Horses must be cared for every
day. The stables must be cleaned
in the morning so that the horses
will not have to stand in the man.
ure. This helps to keep them
from having thrush. Horses should
be curried and brushed every day.
A horse should go OUT Of the stable
every day for exercise and if he
comes in hot he should not be al
lowed too much water. 1t is better
to give him a little then and after
he cools off, if he wants more, give
it to him.
In the summer, if a horse is
working in the fields and comes in
very hot and tired, after he has
cooled off he should have his
shoulders, back and legs washed.
1t does not hurt any horse to be
washed if he is not hot. If he is
sick he should have medicine and if
he does not get better you should
have horse doctor to give him
some medicine. If he has a cut or
a bruise on him, it should be cared
for To turn a horse out on pas
ture is sometimes good for him. A
horse should be fed more when he
is working than when he is idle.
Some people do not feed old horses
as much as they do others. If the
old horse is working he needs as
much as young horse which is
working and, if he is not doing
anything, he should be fed as much
as the young horse that is idle.
Sometimes when a horse is not do
ing anything but standing in the
stable, when he goes out he kicks,
jumps or gets scared easily. Some
men use the whip on them but this
often makes them worse. | do not

Knowing this. 1t hopes that a large

that opinion at the polls. The nomi-

been loud and persistent in urging the
passage Of such a law, practically the
entire democratic campaign is based

HELLSTR0N
IS ENDORSED
North Dakota Total Absti-

es Democratic Candi-
date for Governor

In the last issue Of the Franz the
Norwegian weekly newspaper publish
ed in Fargo, the board Of directors of
The North Dakota Total Abstinence
association published an unqualified
endorsement of Hon. Frank o. He'll
strom for governor.
The statement is signed by Hon. T.
r. Tufte of Northwood, president. and
r.. Olson, of Maddox, secretary of the
association. This unsolicited endorse
ment of the democratic candidate for
governor is all the Tor significant
because it is signed by life long repub-
licans. Hon. T.. E. Tufte is one Of the
pioneer residents of Grand Forks
county and has twice represented his
district in the legislature. being elect
ed as a progressive republican. He
hal been a prominent member of the
Scandinavian Republican league of
this state since that organization was
founded. Mr.. B. Olson, who signed the
endorsement with Mr.. Tufte on be-
half Of the North Dakota Total Alb
stinence association, is also a repub-
lican and has been an active party
worker in Benson county.
In their statement. Messrs. Tufte
and Olson say that Mr.. Hanna does
not represent the progressive republic
can element In the state and that he
favors the Interests" as against the
people, and that he deserves to be de-
feated. Mr.. Hellstrom. on the other
hand. in the opinion Of the board Of
directors OF The North Dakota Absti-

NOT so AWFUL.

Colonel Roosevelt has his opinions
us to the sort of army and navy this
country needs. He would doubtless
insist that he is not in favor of a big
military establishment: but he wants
one that he thinks is big enough. He
wants an establishment so large, so
we'll trained, SO efficient, hat it will
be sufficient to frighten away any ma
ton which might be tempted to at
tack us. And, as we cannot tell from
what sourc attack may come, the
only logical thing for us. on the hypo-
thesis, is to have an army which is
able to cope with any army that Ger
many, for instance, may undertake to
send over, and a navy which will be
able to hold its own. and a little bet
ter. with that of Great Britain. That
may look like a large order, but Col
onel Roosevelt is a man of large
Views.
The colonel has Just undertaken to
startle the country with a piece of aw-
ful news. He has seen plans in the
possession of a foreign government
Tor the capture Of both New York and
San Francisco, and the basis on which
these plans are made is that the two
cities shall be taken and held for an
som, that Is, after their capture a tax
would be levied on them, and this tax,
commensurate with the size and
wealth Of the cities. would be raised
and paid by the Inhabitants, and the
money would then enable the enemy
TO prosecute a war against this coun-
try with funds raised from among its
own people. i.
We do not doubt that plans of this
nature are in the possession of one OF
more foreign governments. and, since
Colonel Roosevelt says he has seen
them, 1t must be 30. But really, the
information 10 not so very startling,
after all, and perhaps that a distin-
1uished American citizen has been
permitted to inspect these plans may
be accepted as evidence hat their ex-
tstence is not such a hair-raising fact,
after all.
One of the occupations of the high
er, and even of the subordinate officers
OF an army in times of peace is to
make plans for war in every one of
Its conceivable aspects. Students in
every profession are given problems
TO solve. Sometimes the problem
