When a FINGERS a Needle.

The young man had made an acci-
dental discovery few days before
During a lull in the conversation at
little social gathering he stepped to
the disc monograph, swung the re-
producing arm to one side and opened
his mouth. Presently the clear tones
of Caruso's robust voice appeared to
be coming from his mouth. The sound
was faint, but every word was distin-
guishable. The mystified audience
crowded about and discovered the
young man had his finger-nail on the
revolving disc. Others tried it and it
was found, of course, that opening
the mouth had nothing to do with the
sound reproduction. 1t was simply
the finger nail acting as a needle.
Lack of a sound box was responsible
for the faint sound, although it was
loud enough to be heard in the next
room. A woman's finger nail being
thinner and sharper will make clear
er and fuller tone. Holding a steel
needle between the fingers results in
a scraping sound without tone repro
duction.

ECONOMICAL METHOD
OF FEEDING
Sheepmen Are Using Chopped
Hay to Feed Their
Stock

Chopping alfalfa is now the order
of the day with a number of the
large sheep outfits in this section.
Al Whites gasoline tractor has been
busy at the Clinton ranches the past
week, where it is expected that in
the neighborhood of thousand tons
will be run through the new 20-inch
machine they have recently purchased.
The Mcconnell brothers have also
purchased a new cutter and expect
to cut all the hay they feed this sea-
son.
At the Van Deusen ranch on Bissel
creek over 400 tons have been chopped
every winter for the past three years
and they are of the opinion that this
method of feeding is very profitable
investment.
James Renwick, who has fed chop
ped hay the past two years, is also
at it again this year and is very en-
thusiastic over this method.
The average estimated cost of
'chopping with a good outfit is about
S1.25 per ton. There is absolutely
no waste, as the stems are cut from
a quarter to half inch in length and
the hay is fed in troughs and not a
single piece is wasted. Mixed with
ground grain it is said to be the best
balanced ration for fattening sheep
that has been found. Many of the
sheepmen estimate a saving of one
fourth over the old method of feed
ing loose hay on the ground, by which
method practically half of the stems
were wasted.

aside. The jury stood 9 to 3. The
