AT the Kansas State Agricultural
college an experiment was conducted
in finishing western lambs the past sea-
son that has just been made public. On
a feed of corn, alfalfa, silage and cot
ton seed meal gain of 1920 pounds
was obtained at cost of $6.97 per 100
pounds. The lambs cost So. Is and sold
at $11.15 with a net profit of $1.76
each. If the lambs had been fed at
any of the feeding yards near Chicago
the cost of gain would have been about

gain has more than paid the cost of
feed with feeders this season.
State Conservation Wardens Mason
of GAINESVILLE and Sampson of Slough
ton were in town Wednesday and

yesterday morning. The redhorse and
suckers are abundant = the only fish
running in the creek at this season of
the year-and the boys reasoned that
if Dick Miller was allowed to seine
them in Rock river and ship out of the
state in car lots, they ought not to be
punished for spearing mess now and
then. But the strong arm of the law
has interfered.
