Prof. 9. Larsen, of the State
College, at Brookings, gives the
following illustration Of the waste
practiced by American farmers -
Sometime ago prominent
European authority visited South
Dakota and | had the privilege of
showing him around. As we drove
by a field of corn stalks he asked !:
TELL me are these maize stalks
very good for feed 2" | was oblig.
ed to tell him that about forty per
cent of the food value of corn is in
the stalk. With an air ofsurprise
he replied; 'sThe American farm
era are apparently very extrava-
CANT. They burn oat straw which
We think ia almost as good as hay
Tor our dairy COWS, and they waste
nearly half of the corn CROP"
There was much truth in bis
statement. We plow the ground,
prepare the seed bed, plant and
cultivate the corn for the forty per
cent in the stalk just as we'll az
for the so per cent in ears. When
all this labor has been exerted, why
should We not preserve and utilize
the stalk as we'll as the ear by stor.

Col. Bryan thinks it is useless 10

Judging by his own experience the
Colonel realizes that a man may
win CONSPICUOUS military title an,
know nothing about war, and wi h
no arms more formidable than a
bagpipe, or some other wind in
strument, yet such man may
make a very poor showing as a
fighter. 10 modern warfare it is
training and equipment that
counts, and it's q mighty poor
time to acquire either after the
