EGYPT HAS A 10 P. M. "LlD"
Drink pIspensarIes, Theaters and
Cafes Forced to Close Early by
New Rule.

Cairo.-Early closing is the rule in
Egypt, and follows the prohibition Of
the sale of absinthe. In Cairo, Alex
andria, the canal Suez and elsewhere
within q radius of five miles of any
military camp the sale of alcoholic
liquors of any sort is stopped at ten
o'clock at night and is not allowed to
begin until the following morning. Ten
o'clock closing is also compulsory in
these districts for all cafes, restau-
rants and theaters. The early clos
fng, combined with the half lighting Of
the streets, which is purely a meas
ure Of economy, has given rise to the
belief among the natives that Zeppe-
Inns are stationed In Syria and intend
to raid Egypt.

BOYS AND GIRLS CLUBS KEEP
YOUNG FOLKS ON THE FARM.

An official Of the Chicago Street
Railways Company recently made the
statement that his company for the
first time In years Is having trouble
in securing motormen and conductors
The reason he assigned was that the
company has depended In the past
largely on the services Of young men
from the farm, but this year there is q
remarkable shortage in the city
bound farm crop OF young men.
AS this official sees 1t the falling OIL
In the movement of young men from
the farm to the city is largely due 20
the fact that conditions on the farm
have improved wonderfully within the
last few years and the young men are
beginning to realize the possibilities
the home place offers. The big factors
In this change Of sentiment has beer
the state agricultural colleges and the
boys and girls clubs.

The first three rations stand closely
together. Corn seems to have a
stationary place between a ration Of
10 parts alfalfa and 90 parts corn,
and a ration of rs parts alfalfa and
rs parts corn.
:, OF all the many rations tried none
has been found the equal Of corn and
small percentage Of alfalfa.
Four seasons records show that
old sows being fattened on corn and
alfalfa pasture gained two pounds
per head daily, ate 365 pounds corn
for 100 pounds gain, and gave a net
profit Of over cents each daily.
A summary of the results Of exper-
iments indicate that the cost Of feed
to produce 225-pound market hog
was 1885 per 100 pounds, and that
keeping the hog until it weighed S25
pounds increased the cost to 1887 per
100 pounds.

WHEN THE COW STOPS
GIVING MILK.

As soon as COW stops giving milk
feeding should begin at once for the
following year. There are three spec
ifc purposes for which she should be
fed during her brief vacation. First,
If she Is q good, hardworking COW.
her last years work has been wearing
on her and her digestive apparatus
should have rest as far as prac-
ticable. To accomplish this purpose
feeds Of cooling and light. bulky
nature, as pasture grass, in summer
and silage in winter should be sup
piled. Secondly, in feeding tho dry
COW it Is essential to build UP the
future calf. heterogeneous or protein
feed must be given for this purpose.
About all the alfalfa or clover hay that
the COW will eat. combined with q
little bran, Is excellent. The third
purpose In feeding is to store up in
the cows body fat to be drawn upon
later, as we'll as stamina for her COM
ing work. To make fat nothing is
better than corn, with small amount
Of other grains. And there Is moth
ing better for imparting stamina to
az animal than oats.-W. F. Purdue.

One Of the chief problems before
the pork producer In Nebraska and
other parts Of the West is that OF the
most profitable use of alfalfa In the
fattening ration. Nebraska has an
abundance Of corn, but has no cheap
protein grain with which to balance
the corn ration. Alfalfa is tho only
source Of cheap protein for feeding
purposes available to our feeders. It
Is because Of this condition that the
feeding of alfalfa with grain Is so
attracting the attention Of the feeders.
The chief problems are in what form
70 feed the alfalfa and in what pro-
PORTO. to the grain ration. During
the past several years extensive exper-
iments have been made by the Ne
braska experiment station to throw
light on this subject
The proper standard from which to
determine the most profitable ration
Is the amount of feed Of a certain kind
required to produce certain increase
In weight and the rate at which the
increase Is made. These terms are the
same in all parts Of the country, while
tho cost Of the various feeds will
vary in almost every locality.

On every poultry plant and around
every farm there are bound to occur
from time to time q greater or less
number Of deaths Of chickens and
adult fowls from disease or other
natura! causes.
The disposal Of these dead bodies
offers . problem to the poultryman,
tho correct solution of which may In
many cases become a very important
matter. This is especially true In the
cases Of death from contagious dis
eases. The method usually prac-

for the disposition of dead carcasses
is insanitary in tho extreme. To
throw the dead bodies on the manure

casses and scatter parts Of them on
the top of the ground.
The only really sanitary method Of
dealing with dead bodies is to in
