Should you slight them, these motherless
children,
These victims of fate in your path
Grown strong in their sons in the tu-
ture,
THEY'LL clutch at your children in wrath
With the faint o ia Jezebers fingers
And strength of giant Of Gath.
For the sake of your Father in heaven,
Who lends you your comforts Away,
For the fatherless, motherless children,
withhold not the wage of one day;
For the Father He giveth the sparrow,
His crumbs and the eagle his prey.

TIE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION.

How many of our youthful readers
know anything about the wonoerIul
Smithsonian institution located in Wash
ington City? 1t is seventy years old and
was located and arranged in 1870.
To the majority of our people the
Smithsonian" is supposed to be
museum. But it is not a museum. To
use the words of late President d. {.
Gilman "it is the greatest auxiliary OF
science throughout the length and
breadth of the land" It's origin is ro-
mantle. for it was an Englishman who
founded and endowed it. When young
man James Smithson devoted himself
TO scientific studies and the science OF
chemistry appealed to him. He was
born in 1885 and died in 1923.
He left his property to certain heirs
and if they failed to live to enjoy 1t, he
devised and bequeathed it to the United
States of America to found at Washing
ton CITY under the name of Smithsonian
institution. an establishment for the in
crease and diffusion of knowledge among
men,"
In 1895 this clause of his will became
operative and Smithson's legacy was &C
cepted by congress. When received IL
amounted to more than half a million
dollars. In 1867 it amounted to $780,
coo.
What induced Smithson to make the
beduest is not known. In washington s
farewell address, we can read the Iol-
lowing: Promote as of primary lmpor-
lance. institutions for the diffusion OF
knowledge"
The president is ex-off1cio trustee aiso
vice president the chief trustee. All
the secretaries and members of the cabi-
net. also three members each of house
and senate.
Every science is represented and any
visitor to Washington will be repaid by
a visit to the institution. In connection
with the library of congress there are
two magnificent institutions that rival
any in the most luxurious capitals of
Europe, namely the Smithsonian and the
Library of Congress.

The causes of sterility are quite num-
erous, and are likely to be promoted by
breeding too young, or from inherent
weakness of constitution. In-and-in
breeding practical to a large extent is a
frequent cause of this trouble. Some
times the sire is impotent, and a change
of sire is therefore often desirable We
advise that you try this suggestion. A
COW which has not been bred for three
years is difhcult to get with calf for
various reasons, one being advancing
age. the closure OF the openings, and
the natural tendency to sterility which
is likely to develop through a failure To
keep the reproductive organs in use.
High feeding at the time of conception
is 4 cause of sterility. Cows which
are very vigorous and full-blooded should
therefore be fed lightly for some time.
Various diseases, of course, may ac-
count for the difficulty you are expert
enciuG. The use of a very saccharine
diet is also Objectionable. You should
examine your COW carefully and see
that she is perfectly normal, and If this
appears to be the case the dilation OF
the organs of reproduction may be

lines indicated in this letter. If relief

MIXING COTTON MEAL AND HULLs
FOR COWS

FOR COWS.
+. c. C.. Lagrange. Ca, writes: We
have installed a machine for mixing cotton
seed meal and bulls with the idea OF sell
ing them already mixed and sacked in the
proper feeding ration, but before making
to the protein the feed should contain.
We viii appreciate any suggestions you care
e. give US.
In our experience cotton seed meal
and bulls have made a very good ra-
ton for dairy cows. though. of course
a succulent food, such as silage, should
be fed in association with the hulls and
meal In other words, bulls should not
be depended on as the sole roughness
When succulent food is fed with the
meal better results are always obtained
than where IL is fed with dry feed. and
this is due to the fact that the succu-
lent food helps TO keep the digestive
system of the COW in a better regulated
condition. Silage as you know, makes
an excellent substitute for grass and
may be fed in Georgia for eight or nine
months OF the year with satisfaction.
Some years ago we tested a feed made
by grinding the bulls up fine. We eX-
perience a good deal Of difficulty in get
ting the animals to eat it and found
il rather unsatisfactory. We have
found IL more satisfactory to feed meal
and bulls I'm their natural condition.
that is, without grinding together.
About one pound of meal should be
fed to three or four pounds Of hulls.
In some instances as many as FIVE
pounds OF hulls can be fed to advantage
to unusually large eaters. OF course
you understand that dairy cows vary
much in their natural requirements as
influenced by individuality, size and
breed. We do not think IL advisable to
feed the average dairy COW, weighing
500 to 1000 pounds. more than three to
four pounds of meal per day when IL is
TO be fed for long periods OF time. A
COW will probably eat from fifteen to
twenty-five pounds OF bulls in a day
In some instances, with large cows, five
pounds Of meal can be fed. The excess
sive use OF meal. however, is wasteful
and might tend TO derange the system.

You do not state how old your Berk-

TO have bred her too young, and to
have reduced her stamina and consti-
tuition thereby. This might account in
part for her giving birth to dead pigs.
We are inclined to think. however, that
the trouble is due to other causes. The

WILL LET THE PEOPLE
VOTE ON SUCH MATTERS

Question was raised by a recent
publication from Whitwell whether
W. NJ Cameron was for bonds. To
settle the matter The News forwarded
the following to Mr. Cameron for re-
ply;
South Pittsburg, Tenn.
"Dear Sir:
"A writer from Whitwell to the
Chattanooga News says that you and
w. Fl. Wilson were both for bonds, or
words practically to this effect, aud he
also claims victory for bonds in the
recent republican primary, which is
still unsettled The first part of this
statement places you in line with the
unjust tactics of Mr.. Wilson, and we
want written statement from you for
publication as to your methods of
handling such questions, whether they
will be by public approval or by force
methods.

besides it is mighty hard to get llcker

Well, some of the Kelly men up mere
are very sore over Mr.. Kelly getting

ahead don't know whether they are
the choice of the Republican or Demo-

Gratis had been kept from voting that
the results would have been different.
l believe that Mr.. Kelly and Mr..
