Fattsn!ng Lambs on Fall Pasture

NN'6 wv Nb
Fattening lambs on fall pasture. in
the cornfeld or on forage that would
otherwise 90 to waste, is generally
profitable because ol the low cost OF
the feed.
The class OF lambs used are thin
Western feeding lambs which weigh
from SIS to So pounds. These lambs
can be purchased in single or double
decked carloads at the stock yards at
Kansas City, St. Joe, East St Louis,
H., Chicago Ill.,, and Omaha Neb.
A single decked car will hold from
$50 to 100 lambs. These lambs can
be purchased through any Of the COM
mission firms operating at any oil the
above named markets.
With medium growth Of cowpeas
or soybeans in the cornfeld. S 10 6
lambs can be pastured 10 an acre
throughout the fall season. The lambs
do not injure the corn crop. The sv-
erage gain in a month is about FIVE
pounds a head. Soybeans and COW
peas should be pastured off before the
hard lrosts because the frost will cause
the leaves to drop and the lambs do
not like the hard woody stems. Fall
rye, blue grass, rape, clover and mead.
ows withstand hard irosts better than
soybeans or cowpeas.
Lambs coming from the range
country are not accustomed 10 the
rich succulent feed found in most
pastures at this season, hence it is ad-
visable, when the lambs arrive at the
farm to put them on short blue grass
or timothy pasture in which an abund-
ance Of clear water is available. After
being on this pasture for few days
the lambs can be gradually put in the
cornfeld or other pastures The lambs
should be turned into the new pasture
in the late morning or III the afternoon.
At this time Of the day the cowyeas,
rape or clover will be dried and the
lambs will not be so hungry. There
is greater danger Of indigestion from
from vet clover and rape than from
dry. The lambs can be Left in the
pasture an hour when they should be
returned to the blue grass pasture.
This operation should be repeated Tor
three or four days in succession after
which time the lambs can be left on
the new forage.
Feeder lambs are scarce this year
and the prices are averaging higher
than they have fer a number Of years.
During the first part Of August the
the best grade Of feeders lambs sold
for 5000 per hundred pounds and
all present market conditions indicate
that there will not be enough feeders
to supply the demand.-H. Hacke-

Grave Situation for L. :.

Washington. May 9.-What action
the United States government will
take as a result OF the sinking Of
the British liner Lusitania. with a
loss of more than hundred Ameri-
can lives. is tonight an undetermined
question.
President Wilson during the last
twenty-four hours has been studying
every phase of the case from its legal
and humanitarian aspects. That he
feels deeply distressed over the Incl
dent and realizes ;he people of the
United States expect him to, express
in some pronounced fashion their in
dignation. was announced in the
statement issued from the White
house last night.
Nothing more was added today to
the few significant sentences of this
utterance-that the president was
considering very earnestly. but very
calmly, the right course of action to
pursue" and that he knows the peo-
pie of the country wish and expect
him 10 act with deliberation' as we'll
as with tirmness.
Until all the official reports are re-
ceived from Ambassadors Gerard and
Page, at Berlin and London, re-
spectiyely. it was not expected that
any action would be taken.
Studying Situation.
The president spent quiet day
apart from his official family-and
for the most part alone. He went tc
church in the forenoon and took d
ride after luncheon. Most of the
time he seemed preoccupied and talk
ed little to his companions. He sat
in his study. it was said, in deeI
thought, undisturbed for hours. Sec

him tonight. but it was understood
no reference was made to the situa-
tion. 1t was the first time Mr.. Nc
Adoo had visited the white house
since he was operated on few weeks
ago.
When the president went motoring
he rode alone on the front seat, re-
volving in his mind the most I'M
portant problem OF his administra-
ton. When he returned to his desk
tonight he found the pile of tele-
grams had increased. They had been
coming in scores from all parts Of
the country. Many urged the adop-
ton of severe measures. Several
among them, a few from working
mems organizations, advised a dec
laration of war as the surest prevent
ative of further affronts to American
dignity. Others suggested sever
ance of all diplomatic relations un-
til adequate reparation and apology
was made. Still others counselled a
peaceful course, but advocated firm
ness. A few messages justified the
sinking.
Secretary Bryan, who spent the
day at home also, received many mes
sages bearing on the situation SINH
lar to those that came to the white
house.

SINKING OF LCSITANlA PHOB
LEM FOR UNITED STATES.
Submarine Sends Large Passenger
Vessel to Bottom.-Many Ameri-
cans Lost.

AS the result of the sinking of the
Cunard liner Lusitania, by a German
submarine, the United States faces the
gravest crises since the beginning of
the European war. Some weeks ago,
when Germany proclaimed war
zone around the British Isles, the
United States issued note to Ger
many, in which it was stated that
Germany would be held to strict
accountability for the loss of any
American lives. On board the Lusl-
tania when it was sent to the bot
tom Friday were 100 American pas
sengers, most of whom met death.
The list of dead includes several
Americans of much prominence, in
cluding Ebert Hubbard and wife.
Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt, Charles
Frohman, Charles Klein, and others.

many American lives.
The great human tragedy coupled
with the responsibilities of the hour,
caused the President to deny himself
to all callers, even to members of his
official family, while he turned over
in his mind the course to be pursued
by the United States Govern ment in
one of the most serious crises in its
history.

of the Presidents mind was given

superintendent Dodd, of the Gu
nard Line, today dashed = lingering
hopes that there might be further
survivors in statement that said:
The only problem now is to iden-
tify the nameless dead"
So far as can be ascertained about
700 persons escaped when the liner
sank after being struck by German
torpedoes, but of these As have died
from exposure or from injuries.
Lord Mersey is to conduct an in
quiry into the disaster and unti that
begins; official opinion as to hoy the
Lusitania came to be caught and why
so many lives were lost, will remain
a secret. The general unofficial
opinion is that several German sub
marines were assigned to the task
of attacking the liner and that they
manoeuvred her into position where
she could not escape.
Altered Her Course
Passengers say that for some time
before the first torpedo was fired the
Lusitania had altered her course. and
they ascribe this to the fact that
one German submarine had shown
herself, sending the big liner in the
direction where others were waiting
to strike.
Beyond anger at the Germans, the
catastrophe has had no effect on the
British people. Steamers are arriv-
ing and departing as usual and even
steamers to Ireland are being freely
patronized.
The heavy loss of life on the Lusi-
tania was due, passengers believe, to
the fact that some officers at least re-
assured them, after the first torpedo
struck, that the Lusitania would re-
main afloat. Preparations were made
to launch the boats, but before this
could be done, a second torpedo hN
the steamer and size listed so badly
that the crew could only work the
boats on one side OF the ship.
Another factor was the extreme
confidence of the passengers them
selves in the infallibility of the wa
ter-tight compartments.

ish navy list for April among the
merchant vessels commissioned as
naval auxiliary craft and Cunard Of

Prominent Americans Perish.

Among the well-Known Americans
whose bodies have not been recover
ed and who consequently are believ'
ed to have perished. are Alfred
'Gwynne Vanderbilt, Charles Klein
the playwright: Justus \. Forman
and Ebert Hubbard and his wife.
The body of Charles Frohman, OF
New York. theatrical producer, al
ready has been brought ashore al
Queenstown.
The hospitals of Queenstown are
filled with the injured among the sur
vivors and the morgues with the
dead.
Judging from the recitals of sur
vors there was comparatively little
panic on board the Lusitania when
she went down. Nor is there any
thing to show that the rule Of the
sea favoring women and children in
the work of rescue was violated
Many of the liners lifeboats were
rendered useless by the fact that she
listed so sharply that they could moi
be used.
Had Faith in His Ship.
Many of the passengers did not
belive the Lusitania would sink as
quickly as she did. Consequently
they did not join in the rush for the
lifeboats, but evidently preferred to
trust in their belief that the water
tight compartments of the vessel
would keep her afloat until such
time as help came out from the Irish
shore, less than ten miles away. II
is related that some of the passengers
even detained to put on life belts.
1t is estimated that there were
about 100 America2s on board the
Cunard liner. So far as could be
ascertained at this time fewer than
70 Americans were saved. Conse-
quently the death list of Americans
is about 120.
Either two or three torpedoes
struck the Lusitania. One report says
the first projectile was followed by
two others striking in quick success
sion. Another report has it that
two submarines took part in the
onslaught, one attacking from the
port and the other from the starboard
side.
