Quantity OF Feed important for Winter.
ing Dairy Cows.

Quantity Of feed ranks next 10 the
kind Of feed in dairy ralious. Eco.
nomical feeding demands that cows be
led as individuals, and not as a herd.
Too frequently each COW in a h,rl is
fed the same amount Of grain, regard.
less Of how much milk she is produc-
ing. BY this practice some cows will
be III deried, while others will be
overied.
1t sholld be understood tha; an
animal always uses certain amount
( the food it receives 10 maintain the
body. This is the first use to which
ne food is put, and is called the ra.
lion Of maintenance. This amount is
required by the animal whether or not
she is producing milk. All feed
above this amount is used for milk
production, or is stored on the body OF
the animal as fat. In the case Of the
young animal part Of this excess is
used for growth.
o the two mistakes made in Iced
ing perhaps undertaking is the most
common, according TO H. c. E:kles
Of the Mi,oun c illege Of Agriculture
/ 1t is a serious mistake to feed a COW
only enough to keep up her body.
She must receive feed to keep her
milk production up 10 capacity. II a
cow looses weight while in milk, the is
not receiving sufficient food. A good
COW, if not fed enough, will produce
milk for time at the expense Of her
sody; that is, she will take the surplus
n..n from her body and convert it
into milk and thereby will lose live
weight. On the Other hand, when a
COW is oyerled she will begin 10 iatten

MissOuli'S State Taxes.

II is difficult 10 make comparison
OF states as to expenditures, from
statistical compilations, owing 10 the
diversity Of practices and benefits.
Some states, for example, have revenue
producing school funds while Others
aid their common schools chiefly
through direct taxation. Some have
built roads at state expense, while in
Others the roads have been built by
counties or special road districts.
New York has spent millions on The
Erie Canal. Some states are without
bonded Indebtedness aud thus bear no
interest and sinking fund burden.
But statistics are available to prove
that Missouri is not so burdened with
state taxes that it cannot afford to in,
crease its revenues TO care for actual
needs. The Bureau Of Census in its
report on per capita levies Of ad valor
EN- taxes for 1912 shows that the Mis-
souri, levy was only $40 58. The
average for the United States was Sl3..
81. The average for the New England
States was $l8.53, for the Middle At
lantic States Sl77l, for the East
North Central States $l5.38, for the
West North Central States Sl5.06, for
the Mountain States Sl8.45, and for
the Pacific States S23.28. Only the
Southern States had a lower average
per capita levy. That OF Missouri was
lower than that Of any other state in or
north o! its latitude.
The State rate per $1,000 valuation
is likewise very low in Missouri, being
$3.50 on what the state officials re-
ported to the New York Worlds Al
manac was 40 per cent valuation.
This includes the levy for interest and
sinking fund. Ol 100 per cent basis
it would be Il cents per $1,000 valua
tion. Using the same basis the rate
in other states would be as follows:
Iowa, 81 d; Illinois, 81 90; Kansas,
$l.20; New York, 81 46; Oklahoma,
$3.50; Kentucky, S3, Nebraska, ST.
SO; Washington, IS 43; Utah, S4 26.
California, New Jersey, Delaware and
Pennsylvania levy no property taxes
state purposes, raising their revenue
in other ways, but, aside from them,
Indiana is the oalv state with a lower
rate than that OF Missouri. Whatever
is wrong with Missouri, it is not the
exorbi,snce Of its ad valorem state tax
rate. Globe Democrat.

Homemade Bread Best.

Homemade bread, if we'll made, is
to be preferred over bakers bread
according to Miss Addie D. Root, OF
the Missouri College Of Agriculture.
The condition OF the yeast used in
bread making is more important than
the kind OF yeast. II yeast is allowed
TO stand in dusty place or is put into
an unsteriizsd vessel, it will collect
bacteria and the bread will have a sour,
unpleasant taste. All utensils and
liquids should De scalded before useing.
Yeasts are small plants which need
air. Flour, therefore, should be add
ed slowly and beaten into the liquid
thoroughly to incorporate air. Sugar
is food for the yeast plant and if given
to it will hasten its growth,
II dough is too stiff, harsh, crumb-
ly bread results, The least amount Of
flour possible to avoid a sticky dough,
gives the best bread.
The quick even stroke in kneading
counts for more than the strength put
into it, A thorough kneading distri-
butes the yeast plants evenly through
out the dough and results in bread OF
the best texture a; the gas bubbles
rise evenly. Dough should be knead,
ed until it has smooth velyety sur
face. II kneaded longer than thirty
minutes, the elastic quality is com
pletely destroyed.
Yeast plants thrive at temperature
Of from 79 to IS degrees Fahrenheit.
When dough is set 10 rise, it should be
placed in a clean bowl, II the bowl
is covered tightly and an even tenn,
perature maintained, it is not necessary
either TO oil or moiSten the surface to
prevent crust from forming. II the
temperature is too high, the bread
will be dark, coarse, and sour. II the
dough is chilled while rising, the
volumn will be smaller, the texture
rubbery, and an undesirable crust will
form. Best results are obtained when
dough is kept at a gentle, warm, even
temperature until it is twice its bulk,
and then worked.
Baking requires as much care as
mixing, kneading and rising. The
temperature Of the oven should be 800
degrees Fahrenheit when the bread is
placed in it. 1t should be allowed to
rise after fifteen minuets and lowered
after thirty minutes. The bread should
begin to brown in patches during the
first fifteen minutes and should have
an even brown surface after thirty
minutes II the dough is not twice
its original bulk or as light as desired,
i, may be allowed 10 finish rising in
the oven.

 We have just finished stock talk ing, and find that we are heavily overstocked so are making enorm- ous reductions in Hardware-as much as 50po in certain lines. Not withstanding immense advances out side, especially in Hardware and Metal Goods, we are still selling on the basis of goods purchased the past two or three years.
 We will sell for cash only at these prices, and for a limited time, until we bring our stock down to the re- quirements of the Camp.
 If you have an order to be filled, let us figure on it; we can save you money. We have proved it co others, we can prove it to you.

Here and There
in the Legislature

Comment WAS made yesterday By
Delegate John II. Crockett, OF Wythe.
on tho speech delivered Friday even
ing by Delegate Reed. Of Portsmouth,
on the subject OF property assessments.
Mr.. Reed read figures compiled by some
person TO show low valuations placed
by land assessors on real property
owned by Governor Stuart chairman
Of the state Advisory Board on Tax
alton, In Southwest counties. Mr.
Crockett. who Is a large farmer and
cattle owner, and who Is familiar with
conditions in that section, said:
mir. Reed. whose remarks were not
gerinane to his subject failed to state
that much OF the land he referred to
is mountain property, which has prac-
tically no value except that OF tho
timber standing thereon. This timber
has been sold and tho purchaser, who
pays the taxes on the same under the
law. has until 1881 TO remove It under
his contract.
referring to other realty owned by
Governor Stuart as specified by Mr.
Reed. I think II sufficient to say that
his taxes during tho past fiscal year
amounted to 40 per cent Of the income
derived from his land. and. furthermore
within $4,000 of his income. In the
most successful and prosperous year
he has ever had. his taxes amounted
TO 10 per cent Of his income. which
is practically the same as that paid
by the owner of a note taxed at %
cents on the 800"
