VALUE OF MILK AS
A FEED FOR CHICKS
Tends to Prevent Mortality From
All CauSes-ExerciSe Is of
Much Importance.

The following are the conclusions Of
agricultural experiment station, en-
titled:
Chickens. Milk Feeding and It's In
1uence on Growth and Mortality. Com
parative Study of the Value OF Sweet
Milk and Sour Milk"
The feeding of milk to young chicks
has a most favorable influence on the
growth and on the lessening OF NOR
tally of the chicks. 1t tends to pre-
vent mortality from all causes, and
II fed soon enough and for sufficient
ly long period, greatly reduces the
death rate caused by bacillary white
diarrhea.
Sweet and sour milk are apparently
OF equal value In their relation to
growth and mortality. Furthermore,
different degrees of souring do not
alter the results OF milk feeding.
The value of milk as feed for
chicks does not depend upon any acids
that may be present, nor upon any
particular types Of micro-organisms,
but upon one or more OF the natural
constituents of the milk
When milk is supplied freely to
chicks 1t becomes all the more impor-
tant that they have abundant exercise.
This applies more particularly to
early-hatched chicks that are brooded
wholly or for the most part indoors.
The feeding OF sweet or sour milk
to young chicks has In no instance
been found to be in any way injurious
to the chicks employed In our numer'

playground Plan Is Success.

Grand Rapids-The experiment
tried by the city in opening its play
grounds for the benefit of the older
young men who are employed during
the day, has proved SO satisfactory
that next year the plan will be ex-
tended. So far only two parks have
been arranged with facilities for night
operation. The plan came about
through the protest of several young
men that they had no place to go ev-
enings except to pool rooms and
saloons.

it would take something over a month
for such train to pass given point.
Compare the rates which the Michi-
gan producer enjoys, in the proximity
to the great markets, with the neces-
sarily higher rates of the allrail ship
ments of the West. The difference
represents a good profit to the Michi-
gan farmer and the manufacturer.
These advantages of both rail and
water transportation will always be
one of Michigans most valuable as
sets.
Steam and Electric Railways.
In the matter of railroad transpor-
tation, Michigan also is we'll in the
fore ranks. The railroad facilities
have been developed so that the state
ranks sixth among all others in the
total miles of trackage. From informa-
ton furnished by the office of the
Michigan railroad commission, there
is shown to be 4S steam-roads, with a
total mileage, on the single-track
basis, of more than 5000 miles:
twelve of these could be classified as
trunk railroad lines, reaching the larg-
er consuming centers. Supplement-
ing these are SO smaller lines, each
serving territory; not to mention
several small private lines which are
not common carriers. OF the larger
trunk lines of the state one has a
mileage of over 1900 miles-the next
greatest mileage Is one of nearly 1900
miles and another about $50; one of a
miles. The number of miles of track
age for electric lines in 1913 is given
as 1,116.3S miles, of which 1,077.24
miles is the trackage of the 20 inter
urban lines, exclusive of all city
trackage There are several interur-
ban lines in the course of construc-
ton. The electric interurban lines
running through the rural communi-
ties as they do, have been a boon to
the farmer and a factor OF no small
proportion in the development of
many farming communities. The state
has also over 10000 miles of common
highways, of which only brief mention
has been made, as the matter of high
ways is covered in another chapter of
the state highway commissioner.
Desirable Social Conditions.
Modern invention and progress have
done much to bring the rural COM
munities in touch with all the refin-
ing influences of our latter day civili-
zation. The telephone and daily news
papers (the latter made possible by
the rural free delivery service) have
broken down the barrier of distance,
which but a few years ago presented
a seemingly insurmountable obstacle,
and have brought the Michigan farm
er closer to his neighbor; to the big
city; and to the great outside world
in general. With a literal network
of wires, consisting of more than 51,-
900 miles of telephone lines penetrat-
ing practically every spot in the state,
70 say nothing OF over $500 miles of
telegraph lines, no community in the
state need be without communication
with the outside world.
The rural free delivery of mails is
in operation in every one of the
eighty-three counties of the state ex-
cept seven, and as fast as new routes
are deemed necessary they are estab-
lished. Figures obtained from the
post Office department at Washington.
d. c., February, 1910 show that
there are 2,049 individual rural routes

Bees Valuable.

A colony of 10000 bees will require
three weeks to produce fifty or more
pounds of surplus honey. In some
sections of perpetual bloom hives
have been known to give as much as
500 pounds or honey. We have heard
OF one bee owner on the Pacific coast
who had 5000 hives. which produced
100000 pounds Of honey yearly, worth
$40. 900.

Ruth died early Saturday morning

Barclay, the latter two of Detroit, are
also seriously i'll from eating the

From "Michigan-The Land of Plenty"
To the farmer and the homeseeker
the question of markets for the prod
ucts Of his fields is of as much i'm
portance as it is to the manufacture
er. In fact, the question of markets
is OF first Importance. 1t is not enough
that the soil is richly productive, but
1T is necessary that the crop can be
sold in good market and the market
must be close at hand, for with large
number of the best paying crops,
freshness, through early delivery of
the product to the consumer, is mat
ter of importance in determining the
prices. Michigan is particularly well
situated to meet the demands for the
best markets, since she not only has
a great home market but is favorably
located, being very near the center
of population for the entire country.
1t can be truthfully said that Michi-
gan is, as it were, at the very door of
a consuming population of about 30
100000 people. The rapid increase of
the urban population, devoted to the
manufacturing interest, furnish a
ready home market. Statistics show
that of the total population of the
state of nearly 100000 people, nearly
One-half live in the cities and towns,
therefore the large cities and manu-
featuring towns hold a great portion

Burke Heads Fish -ng Party

Chas. Burke took a number of his
fishermen friends to Lawrence Point
on Lake Minnewaska Monday where
they had fine time and secured nice
string of fish. In the party were
Pete Weum, Al. Geisen, Clarence
McConviIle and Roger Casey and they
went out in Mr.. Burke's handsome
Cadillac.
After leaving Morris the party
found some excellent roads. Between
Cyrus and Starbuck the grades had
been repaired and considerable sand
and gravel had been used in road COLI
struction. From Starbuck to Glen
wood the auto road followed the lake
and was hard and dry. The accom-
modations at Lawrence Point were
excellent and every courtesy was

ALBERTA TWIRLER
SLIPPED One OVER
Independents Meet First Defeat
when Alberta Took Mondays
Contest 8 to 5

In game full of errors as we'll as

team defeated the Morris Indepen.
dents at the racetrack diamond Mon.
day afternoon. 1t was the Indepeu-
dents first defeat this season and they
faced the invaders with mingled doubt
and confidence because of weakness
in the lineup. The game was one of
the best seen in Morris so far this
season and every spectator was we'll
satisfied. 1t was pitchers battle
with miserable support at times on
both sides. Alberta finally slowed
the game away in their little grips
marked 8 to 5.
julius Caesar II was on the firing
mound for Alberta. At home he is
known as Farmer Rahline but in the
rest of the county he has the reputa-
ton of being the greatest base ball
slab worker in this section. Some of
his fame and glory suffered severely
Monday afternoon when ten hits were
secured off his delivery and as many
more beautiful clouts went sailing into
the mitts of greedy fielders. But
he pitched fine game at that and
went home with greater number of
strike-outs than any other pitcher who
has visited Morris for some time.
Markle was the first man up and
swatted the first one over the pan for
a safe hit into left garden. Nelson
went out on a foul which was eaten
by Catcher Wilson. Monlux was re-
tired by the strike-out route and Mar
kle was thrown out at third base. re-
firing the side. That was the history
of the first half of the first inning and
the rooters found little on which to
start the cheering.
Buttell began the twirling for Nor
ris and lasted six innings when he
gave way to Berns. Buttell famed
Bloom who was the first man up.
Luhman flew to Markle who made a
pretty running catch. Farwell made
nice drive to Andrusick in cent r
field, retiring the side. Alberta root.
ers were depressed.
Alberta scored in the second in
ming and again in the fourth. Morris
sent Monlun and Tomlin across in the
fourth. Alberta had the bases full
in the sixth when Buttell weakened
and gave two passes. forcing two
scores. Catcher Wilson came across
with another before the side was re.
tired. Berns went in after that anC
the visitors failed to score.
Alberta's ragged fielding and Nor
ris' excellent stick work gave Morris
two scores in the sixth. Andrusick
lifted high one for three sacks and
Buttell connected for couple. One
of the flies went into Podberg's right
field garden but the sun was beamlns
into his eyes as he posed. Farwel
