= per cent and the total loss to the
country from the practice is estimated
at nearly $15,000O00 a year.
To obtain satisfactory results from
the feeding of farm roughages, such
as straw and slower, they must be
combined with some form of concen-
trated feed. At the present time large
quantities Of such feed, in the form
of cottonseed meal and cake, corn,
molasses, peanuts, and beans are ex-
ported for the use of European feed
ers. If the straw and slower that are
now wasted were employed to feed
more cattle, these concentrates could
be consumed at home. The result
would be a tremendous saving not
only in the cost of producing beef but
In the cost of enriching the soil as
well. In 1914, for example, about l.
100000 tons of cottonseed meal-half
the total production-were applied
directly to the soil as fertilizer If
this had been fed to cattle instead.
three-quarters of the fertilizing value
would have been returned to the soil
as manure. The loss of the other
fourth would have been far more than
counterbalanced by the profit on the
meat produced economically by the
meal and the necessary roughages.
Much the same thing is true of tho
other oil meals.
The value Of these meals is far bet
ter appreciated in Europe than here.
Denmark, for example, feeds annual
~ 47S pounds of oil cake to each of
her mature cattle, the United States
approximately "a pounds. Further
more, the European feeder IS aware
of the fact that the high-protein meal.
while more expensive to buy. is more
economical to use. Meal of this quail
ity is seldom sold on the domestic
markets because the American farmer
has not yet learned its value. Cotton
seed and linseed are perhaps the best
known of the oil meals, but there are
others the use of which as feed could
be probably extended. Both peanut
and soy bean meal and cake, for in
stance, are in good demand in Eur
ope.
The efficient use of these and other
feeds discussed in the report is of the
utmost Importance to the American
farmer, it is pointed out, because the
day when close calculation in feeding
was not necessary is, in all probable
ity' past. Hereafter it is likely that
success will depend upon ability to put
to the best use all available products.
A greater knowledge of what these
products are and of the ways in which
they can be fed will result in the
elimination of enormous waste.

The primary step in human better
ment has always been TO secure a
shorter workday. Those workers who
toiled ten or twelve or fourteen hours
became drudges, too tired to think, too
worn out to hope or dream dreams
with time only for the sleep necessary
for any animal. Each day they re-
turned to work unrested from the toll
Of the previous day, the poison of
fatigue accommodating in the body until
the yigor of youth and manhood was
ruinously undermined.
To decrease the hours of work to a
reasonable standard assures to the
worker time for rest and recuperation
and additional time for development,
Cor study, for social pleasures, for the
things that MAXI life 9orfh While and
fill it with hope and opportunity.
Since this change has been brought
about in reducing the hours of work,
the short-hour workman becomes a
better workman, consequently, reduc-
lions in the hours of work are invari-
aDly accompanied by increases in
wages.
Reduced Hours, Increased Efficiency.
1t has been the experience of en-
ployers that reducing the hours of
work to a reasonable standard results
IN increased efficiency of workers. The
data furnished by some who have kept
statistics showing the increased out
put resulting from reducing from q
Ten to an eight-hour day is startling.
Some have found that efficiency in
creased in percentages varying from
30 to so.
Workers have called attention to
harmful insanitary conditions prevail
ing in places of employment. By their
demands, backed up by their economic
power, they have succeeded in bring.
ing about great transformation. In
this they have had the cooperation
and assistance of the many great
scientists, who have used their knowl-
edge and their ability to promote the
interests of humanity. But whatever
has been accomplished to establish
principles of human welfare in indus
try and commerce has been due either
directly or Indirectly to economic or
CARNATIONS of workers.
Each year that has gone by has
made more evident the soundness of
the principles which the trade union
lists have followed. As the dynamic
forces in the lives of the people stand
out sharply in some test that cuts
through to bedrock fundamentals. the
strength and the nature of economic
power is revealed. Those who had
the understanding to interpret such
fiashlight glimpses into the heart of
things and who can sense the hidden
currents that are propelling the for
ward surge Of life, know that those
who handle the tools and materials of
production. have In their hands the
great powers of the common life. Gre
alive ability is that which gives men
and women who can do things influ-
ence and value. Men and women have
an Importance and power because
OF that ability.

WORMS WORRY SMALL CHICKS
When Several Establish Themselves in
Throat and Approach Maturity,
They Cause Suffocation.

Gapes is caused by the presence of
cape worms in the throat of the young
chick. Probably the actual injury
caused by the presence of the worm
is very slight, but the chicks throat
is so small that when several worms
have established themselves and APP
proach maturity they so far fill the
throat of the chick as to cause suffo-
cation.
In all probability these worms often
exist in the Threats of larger chickens.
but because they do not noticeably de-
prive their hosts of air they reach ma
turity or are dislodged, and their pres
ence is never detected.

CULTlVATING PEAS IN CORN
Remove Front and Rear Tooth From
14-lnch Tooth Harrow and Strad-
die Row With implement.

A good way to plant peas in corn
is TO wait until about two or three
weeks before laying by. After cult
waiting the corn, plant row of peas
in the center of the middle. When
the peas come up take 14-tooth har-
row and remove the front aud rear
middle tooth, and possibly raise the
outside teeth next the corn so the
roots will not be injured. Spread the
harrow out so the middle will be
pretty well filed and straddle the pea
row with the implement. One or two
civilizations of the peas will be a great
help to them.

GOOD STORAGE is NECESSITY
Place for PerishabIe Foods often
Lacking and Spectators Are
Given Advantages.

Farmers lose much every year be-
cause their facilities for storing per.
ishable foods are poor. Every farm
home should have cellar, store
house and refrigerator so the surplus
foods may be saved till such a time
as they may be consumed. The fact
that producers have inadequate facili
ties for saving perishable products
gives spectators advantages.

Rasions for wintering Breeding Cows.

In this connection it is pointed out
also that feeding straw in the winter
will insure under certain circum-
stances the full utilization of sum
mer grass. In a number of western
states it frequently happens that grass
goes to waste because feeders are I'M
willing to pay the high prices asked
for steers in the spring. With an
abundance of straw on hand to lessen
the cost of wintering, feeders can take
advantage of the lower prices for
stocker cattle in the fall to secure
on reasonable terms at that time
enough stock to pasture all the grass
the following year.
The production of corn stover Is
about twice that of grain straw,
amounting TO approximately 245000,-
900 tons year. A larger percentage
(S1.5) of this is fed than of the straw,
but the waste is nevertheless aston
fishing. For this, poor methods of
feeding are largely responsible. BY
far the most economical method of
handling corn is by ensiling, but as a
matter of fact only 81 per cent of the
acreage was put in the silo in 1914,
the year in which these investigations
were made. About IL per cent was
cut for greenfield and 81 per cent
allowed to mature for grain. 1t is in
the last portion of the acreage that
the greatest waste occurs. Stripping
the leaves from the stalks which are
subsequently burned, removing the
stalk above the top ear only, leaving
the stalks to stand in the field until
the loss of leaves and teaching have
removed much of their fertilizing
value. are all unthrifty methods.
Furthermore, almost per cent of the
slower is burned. as though, instead of
being potential source of revenue,
II was merely a nuisance to he gotten
rid of as a percentage of slower that
is thus thrown away is as high as . or
