SPACE FOR HAY
Temporary Shelter May Be Cbtaintd
by Placing Prepared Roofing
Materials on Poles.

When the rains make hay harvest
so unfavorable, as was the case in 1915,
it is important to provide suitabl"
roofs under which the hay may be
placed as rapidly as it can be cured
sufficiently. While the substantial barn
is always first to receive consideration
it frequently happens that more or less
additional storage is desirable.
In many cases this additional space
for hay may be provided at small ex-
pense by planting telegraph poles
suitable distances apart, connecting
these with plates made of plank and
on these plates placing roof materials.
Such a structure may be built in short
order and at small expense. Farm
laborers may even do the building.
If q more durable and larger struc-
ture is desirable there is nothing su-
perior to the plank frame hay bar
racks.

jSES FOR skim MILK
1ne of Best Feeds for Both
Young and Old Chickens.
Also Considered Excellent for Pigs OF
All Ages-VaIuabIe in Itself and
Assist in Digesting the
Other Foods.

Milk is one of the best foods for
10Th young and old chickens. The
,asein, or curdy part of the milk, large
y supplies the protein necessary for
laying hens, while for table fowl there
IS nothing superior to milk for making
white, juicy, delicious flesh.
The milk may be either sour or
sweet, and may be given as drink
Or mixed with the meal, or both. Sour
skim milk or buttermilk fed to chick
ems confined to limited range keeps
Them in health. The acid of the milk
supplies the lack of vegetable acid
they would obtain if running at large,
and moreover it aids digestion.
Poultry farmers living near cream
cry gladly pay for the skim and sour
milk, which can be had at very reason
able rates.
Farm Dairying says: "Skim milk
is considered one of the best of foods
for pigs Of all ages. It is not only
valuable in itself, but it helps to digest
other foods and so makes them more
valuable. Milk makes firm, excellent
quality of pork.
'About gallon and half day
for q 1OO-Eound pig will bring econom-
ical results, or feeding at the ratio of
three pounds of milk to one of meal.'
Mixed milk and wheat bran make
the best ration for pigs and shoats
In connection with clover and grass
pasture.
All animals like a variety of food.
No one food, however good it may
be, will answer. Give variety and
only what will be eaten with relish.
Keep the feed troughs and feeding
yards clean and dry.
No rancid food should be fed. Hotel
refuse is not a healthy food.

LIVE STOCK AIDS FERTILITY
Diversified Farming Calls for System
of Rotation and Is Best Insur-
ance Of an Income.

On farms where live stock is kept
the lanu is more productive than on
farms where exclusive grain farming
is followed. Where the crops are sold
on the market all OF the plant food
contained in those crops is lost to the
soil. This practice will result without
fail in impovcrishment Of the land.
Livestock farming is diversified
farming ard calls for system Of crop
rotation. It returns fertility to the
soil. Adds interest to the work Of the
people living on the farms and finally
Is the best insurance Of an income.

GOOD WAY TO MEASURE HAY
Four Hundred Cubic Feet Has Been
Found to Be Fair Estimate for
Ton-Weight Will Vary.

Sometimes hay is sold in the NOW
or the stack. When this is done it is
necessary to estimate it.
1t has been found that 400 cubic
feet Of hay will be fair estimate for
q ton. The actual weight of 400 cubic
feet of hay, CT course, will vary, as will
the kind of hay. time CT cutting, posi-
ticn of the NOV, etc But it will be
II fair estimate to both buyer and SELL
er to consider 400 cubic feet ton.
When you are making an estimate
multiply together the length breadth
and height of the NOW or stack in feet
and divide the product by 400. The
uuotient will be the number of tons.

NEGLECT OF FARM MACHINES
Some cultivators and Hay Racks Are
Never Greascd-keep All Wagon
AxIes Well Oiled.

The oiling or greasing of no machln-
cry on the farm is so neglected as are
the axles of wagons, buggies, rakes,
cultivators, etc. An oil can or box of
axle grease is not carried along with
these vehicles or implements, and be-
cause oiling is not needed every few
hours, this is neglected.
Some cultivators and hay racks are
practically never oiled or creased,
when this should be attended to after
a steady day OF two of service or the
equivalent. Nothing but close atten-
ton to wagon and buggy will keep the
axles we'll oiled, as the trips of few
miles each day soon accumulate anu
get rid of all OF the grease.

FARM OF RIGHT PROPORTIONS
Records Show That Farmer Either
Has Too Many Acres or Not
Enough for Successful Work.

The size of business often has much
to do toward making the farm profit
able. Farm management records show
that farms are often either too small
or too large for the most successful
farming.
There may be tCo few as we'll as too

THE MARKETS
ASSOCIATED PRESS
MARKET REVIEW

Chicago, Oct. 27.-Resumption of ex-
port buying caused a late upturn in the
price of wheat Thursday after the mar
ket had displayed much heaViness oW-
ing to rains in Argentina and to the
temporary stoppage of foreign demand.
The close was unsettled at the same as
Wednesdays finish to IL cent higher
with December $3.50 IL to $3.50 "a
and May $3.50 IA to $3.50 "a
@. Corn lost 3-S to "a net, oats Ia TO
3-S and provisions 2 IL to 70.
It was not until within fifteen min
utes of the end Of trading that an
nouncement was made of the revival
of export business in wheat. All
the bulls had been handicapped so Sc
Verely that rallies no matter how Wig
orous failed to last. 1t did not appear
that the rains in Argentina were gen
rent that before the moisture supply
was shut off the drought would be vtr-
tually over. This view seemed to be
more or less borne out by big fall in
prices at Buenos Aires. In the appar-
ent absence of any Immediate foreign
outlet many weak holders became dis
couraged, and threw holdings over
board, unaware that relief was at hand.
Estimates of export sales OF wheat
ran as high as 10000 bushels. In the
presence of such a pronounced bullish
development sentiment changed quick
ly and Thursdays losses entirely dis
appeared. The time before the final
gong was so short. however. that opin-
ions were not tested as to whether
Wednesdays big setback was also to
be overcome in a hurry.
Increased country offerings proved
too much of a burden for the corn mar
sket. The late rally in wheat acted only
as an Offset in part. Oats were upheld
to some extent by export inquiry.
Scarcity of cars, though, interfered
with the acceptance of bids.
Provisions seemed to be under a good
deal of selling pressure from packers
The market was further weakened by a
break in the value of hogs.

Catholic Lecturer.

Galveston. Oct. 27.-John Copeland,

William Black, an anti Catholic
lecturer. in Marshall. Texas, Feb. 3,
1915, on the witness stand denied he
shot Black.
He declared the only shot he fred
was directed at Clarance F. Hall. the
lecturers business agent, and said he
did not know who killed Black. After
three other witnesses had been
examined. the defense rested.
Copeland testified deliberately and
with self-possession. He did not once
contradict himself.
He displayed to the jury the wound
in his abdomen he is said to have re-
ceived when fired on by Hall. so far
the chief witness for the state.
In response to questioning Copeland
said he wanted to confer with Black
and to protest against his delivering a
second lecture in Marshall attacking
the institutions Of the Roman Catholic
church. He declared he would not
have made the trip if he had thought
trouble would result
He armed himself. however, he testi-
fed. because he had been warned that
Black was "a bad man."

Join Republican Ranks.

The organization of a Hughes club
among the young men of the city was
undertaken yesterday afternoon. The
results of a rather hurried canvass
among the young men yielded surpris-
ing results. Nearly fifty men signified
their willingness to join such a club,
and it is safe to say that by the first
of the week the club will have a mem
bership Of 100.
A banquet will be held at the Com
stock hotel early next week, and the
purposes of the organization will be
outlined. The speakers will be chosen
almost entirely from the ranks of the
club.
1t is planned to unite the new club
with the regular Republican organiza-
tion in the meeting which Congress-
man Steenerson will conduct at GIetne
hall next Monday night. Although
somewhat belated the enthusiasm of
the Hughes supporters is portentous,
and the meeting Monday night prom
ises to be great success.
