The Appeal. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. ;) 1889-19??, 1916-08-26

A short time ago Mr.. Thaddeus
Stepp, manager and director of THE
STEPP MOVING PICTURE SPECIAL.
TIES at Duluth was in st. Paul and
put on moving picture show at
Pilgrim Baptist Church that was very
successful in every way.
He was so imbued with the idea
that a photo play with members of
the race as the leading characters
would make a big hit in the Twin
Cities, that the following letter is the
result:
Duluth, Mimi, Aug. 10, 1916.
Mr.. j. @. Adams
st. Paul., Minp.
Dear Sir:
While in st. Paul and Minneapolis,
recently. was impressed strongly
with the idea, that the Twin Cities,
should afford rousing photo drama,
acted by members of the race of the
two cities: Now it is absolutely nee
essary for us to act quickly in this
10th century time, and decide what
We are going to do. have made up
my mind that st. Paul and Mime
apolis, are the gate-ways to this great
and historical Northwest, and there is
enough of culture and refinment among
the people to make such a photo play,
a great success.
l wanted to see you and have a
general talk over the matter, but my
time was so taken up while in your
city, hence this letter. I hope you will
be favorably impressed with my prop
osition, and lend me your hearty CO.
operation in laying the matter before
the readers of THE APPEAL. I am
already arranging scenario or hav-
ing it written especially for the Twin
Cities, entitled, 1.-THE Modern Minnie
ha-ha."
Now the question arises who is to
be Minnie" this must be decided by
popular vote, the young lady receiv-
ing the highest number of votes will
be the leading lady, in this play, these
votes will be secured of you, and for
Warded to me here, 623 Fifth Ave.
East, Duluth, MIMI, to be in my hands
no later than Wednesday morning of
each week, that may count same, and
return candidates name, and the num-
Der of votes each receives so that I
can report result to you for publica-
ton same week.
This film will be exhibited in the
Twin Cities so that every one will
have chance to see themselves as
others see them, and will also be
placed on the exchange circuit to be
exhibited East, South and West.
Of course there is to be a number
OF people in the cast, should there be
tie vote, I reserve the right to cast
the deciding vote, the others will be
used in the cast also, according to the
number of votes each receives.
Yours truly,
T. w. STEPP

purpose of choosing delegates to the State, Congressional, Railroad Commissioner and Judicial conven- tions at time and places they are to be held. Said convention is to be composed of delegates from each township as follows: One dele gate for each 50 votes or fraction over 25 votes cast for the Demo cratic candidate for governor in said township election of 1914, provided that each township shall be entitled to at least one delegate.
 Seventh. Resolved further, That all candidates shall be taxed for the purpose of paying the ex- penses of said election as follows: Congressman, SIS; circuit judge, SIS; prosecuting attorney, $15; circuit clerk, $25; county clerk, $25; county judge, $2o; sheriff.

sential therefore that the heifer calf rapidly. Whole milk for at least three to four weeks is the best. By. that time a little grain can be added and the change made to skim milk. This change should be gradual and extend over three to four weeks more. Eight to ten pounds of milk daily is suf- ficient quantity for the average calf during the first few weeks. This amount can be gradually increased to twelve or fourteen pounds. It is rarely advisable to feed more than that amount while the calf is on milk The grain can be increased and by the time the calf is on skim milk it will be eating hay. Never use cotton seed meal for calves. Oats, corn chops, wheat bran, and a small quantity of oil meal are the best. Pasture is ex- cellent when they are old enough to properly utilize it. The object is to keep them growing at all times. It has been proven that generous feed ing of heifers even though they lay on fat is not at all detrimental to their future usefulness. On the other hand such feeding means early matur- ity; that is. the heifer will make sui ficient growth during the shortest pos sible time so that she may be bred early, thereby shortening her non-pro- ductive life, and still make ample growth to insure good sized COW when mature. Make the ration com posed largely of nutritious roughages so as to develop strong and efficient digestive apparatus, and use grain In the ration to force growth.
 The heifer and the mature COW as we'll should come to the freshening period in good flesh. Surplus fat will be milked down readily if the COW be of the desired dairy temperament. Ten to twelve days before freshening the grain ration should be reduced and laxative, cooling feeds such as silage, roots, or small amounts of linseed meal or wheat bran should be fed.

Consumption of Gasoline.

In estimating consumption of gaso- line statisticians usually figure con- sumption by motor owners as the prin- cipal demand on refiaers and lump other consumption as not of great im- portance. However, President Brace of the National Association of Overs and Cleaners, recently called atten- tion to the great amount of gasoline used by cleaning establishments. He says that the annual consumption of gasoline for this purpose in the Uni ted States exceeds 70,000,000 gallons and is increasing all the time. Clean CTS, according to MT. Brace, use gaso- lire as laundries do water, and in fig uring On the consumption of gasoline in this country he says the statisti- clans must not forget the great de mands made on the refiners by the cleaners.-Wall Street Journal

The value of the dairy COW on the farm lies primarily in her ability to convert roughages commonly grown Tn abundance on most farms into vala- able, nutritious and readily market able product. The selection of a ra- tion should therefore be made with view ot utilizing such roughages to the greatest possible extent. Both during development and when produc- ing milk, the requirement of protein is high so that what Is known as narrow ration must be used. Where the protein can be supplied with le- gume hays, it should be done, as they are generally our cheapest source of protein. Extra protein can be sup piled through the grain or cencen- est protein in Arkansas as rule. Wheat bran and oats also supply a deficiency in protein quite cheaply.
 A general rule is to feed one pound of grain daily for every three and 8 half to four pounds of milk produced daily for cows giving milk of average butter fat content, or one pound of grain for every two and half to three pounds of high testing milk. A bet ter rule is to feed pound of grain daily for every pound of butter fat COW produces weekly. This means that a COW giving 10 pounds of butter fat per week should nave at least 10 pounds of grain daily. The individual needs of the COW must also be taken into consideration in grain feeding.
 In feeding daily animals the follow ing factors should be observed: Feed a ration that will meet the needs If the animal especially from the stand point of protein requirement.; make the ration bulky enough to satisfy the capacity of the animal, make it ,paIa- table so that it is eaten with a rel ish, utilize as far as possible crops grown on the farm, and by all means see to it that the ration is not made too expensive, so that profit can be made on the milk produced. The lib eral use of legumes will help in all in- stances.

III. RAISING AND FEEDING THE
 DAIRY COW.
By H. E. Dvorachek, Professor of Ami nal Husbandry, University
 of Arkansas

A discussion of feeding dairy cattle would be incomplete unless one cofn- menced with the development of the dairy heifer since the success of the business depends largely on herd i'm provement. This applies especially to Arkansas dairying in so much as the business is still in it's infancy, and the production per COW is still very low.
 The ability of the heifer to produce at the pail is largely a matter of he redity and must not be under estimat
 ed. but proper development has 3 great influence nevertheless. It is 'es-
