r0ughage we would suggest feeding
above forty pounds of corn silage
daily and then supplement it with
some of the corn slower. not forcing
the animals to eat the larger or coarser
portions. A mixture of 300 pounds
gluten feed. 800 pounds bran and 200
pounds beet pulp will supplement this
roughage well. It will require about
one pound Of this mixture for each
three pounds of milk produced. 1t
might be we'll to purchase some cotton
seed meal and use 100 pounds Of it to
reduce the amount of gluten feed to
200 pounds In the mixture and then
feed this as suggested for the former
combination of feed.
Silage Is not a very good feed for a

quite readily. while others do not use
any. Silage Is a good feed. but It is

KEEPING UP MILK FLOW.

Careful Feeding Necessary to Main
tain High Production.
When COWS have been developed to
produce from six to eight gallons of
milk daily. they require unusually good
care and good feeding, says Hoard's
Dairyman. 1t is asking too much Of
an inexperienced man to take care of
such COWS and expect them to keep up
to this flow Of milk. We do not believe
the average person realizes the amount
Of skill it requires to feed an animal
that produces from six to eight gallons
of milk daily and to sustain that pro-
duction without injuring the animal.
1t cannot be done unless the feeds are
suited to milk production and then fed
according to the animals needs. 1t is
almost asking too much Of a COW to
do this amount of work unless she Is
supplied with some good legume hay.

It may be said that If a heavy grain

There are a few duties connected

PUBLIC FAIRGROUNDS.

The importance Of establishing
Fairgrounds in our cities can
scarcely be overestimated- Play
is the natural and normal por-
ton Of the life of every boy and
girl. Exercise Is to the child no
less vitality important than food.
for without exercise bis body
will starve just as surely AZ It
would were 1t deprived of ma
terial nutriment
We who may have been for.
tunate enough to have been
brought up in the country can
but dimly understand the lot of
the child Of the city streets.
With Us exercise and recreation
came in natural course. The ne
cessity for finding a place to
play was quite undreamed of. for
opportunities for play lay all
about us. But for the city child
the problem is more difficult.
There are always the streets. of
course. and of coursrand nee
. essarily-there must also be the
city ordinance and the police
man forbidding him to use the
streets for play.
Provisional measures, such. for
instance. as the closing of q
block to traffic. are expedients at
best. The playground is the
. only real remedy. And the play
grounds should be ready for the
!. coming of spring.

TTOW much longer are state gov

ing to tolerate private wars
in Industrial disputes? asks
the New York World.
How much longer are they going to
tolerate the private, employment of
hired gun men to deal with labor trou-
bles?
What happened in Colorado has now
happened in a way in New Jersey and
with less excuse. for the Colorado
strikers were not only armed, but they
were on the company's property. The
New Jersey strikers were apparently
not armed; they were not rioting, and
they were not or the property of their
former employers. The worst ofense
they had committed was to flag a train
supposed to carry strike breakers and
then stand aside on being warned to
do so. Yf
For this onense they were attacked
by a private army of detectives and
deputies. and twoscore or more of men
were shot down. some of them receiv-
ing fatal wounds. At one of the plants
the statement is made that IF there
has been any violence it is probably
due to business depression and the
consequent unemployment Of work
ers." What this means we do not pre-
tend to know. but we know that there
is more anarchy behind it than there
is behind all the anarchist societies of
the country.
Government is a failure in a state
where this can happen-in a state
| which permits an industrial quarrel to
reach the stage Of bloodshed; in a state
which permits private corporations to
arm detectives to do the police work
that the state itself was created to do;
in a state which manifests no official
concern over a private war until it Is
time to count the dead and wounded.
This is a mighty poor time for en-
ployers to shoot down strikers. what
ever may be the right or the wrong of
the original controversy. 1t is a
mighty poor time for states to surren-
der their police power and leave the
protection of property to private gun
men. New Jersey has seen the shame
full effects of anarchy in Colorado. Has
she no concern for her own honor and
reputation? 0.'- .. ~

CAUSE OF UNREST

Industrial unrest springs from
the desire Of all men to better
themselves. from the feeling that
there is nothing before them but
the eternal. hopeless grind. The
right to more life than he Is get
ting-our present unrest is the
expression of a desire for that.
The refusal Of employers to
deal with their men Is a factor,
and uny employer who does that
makes a terrible mistake. An
other Is the opposition Of corpo-
