Rations for Cows.

In this connection 1t Is pointed out
also that feeding straw in the winter
will insure under certain circum-
stances the full utilization of summer
grass. In a number of western states
1t frequently happens that grass goes
to waste because feeders are unwill-
ing to pay the high prices asked for
steers in the spring. With an abun-
dance Of straw on hand to lessen the
cost Of wintering, feeders can take ad-
vantage of the lower prices for stOcker
cattle in the fall to secure on reason
able 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 245.OOO,-
600 tons a year. A larger percentage
81 5-Of this is fed than of the straw
but the waste is nevertheless astonish-
ing. For this, poor methods of feeding
are largely responsible. BY far the
most economical method of handling
corn Is by ensiling, but as q matter
Of fact only 81 per cent Of the acre
age was put In the silo In 1914. the
year In which these Investigations
were made. About IL per cent was
cut for green feed and 81 per cent al
lowed 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. Fur
thermore, almost 4 per cent of the
stOver Is burned, as though, instead of
being a potential source of revenue, 1t
was merely a nuisance to be got
rid of as a preliminary to plowing. In
some states the percentage Of stOver
that Is thus thrown away Is as high as
the country from the practice is esti-
mated at nearly $15.OOO,OOO q year.

the demand for steam coal had left
 the supply about normal The pro- duction during the first six months of the year. according to the GeolO- gical Survey. was 26l.O0O0OO tons. an increase Of about 6S.00000O over 1915. Mine owners had increased
 their output in the first three months Of the year in anticipation Of a possible strike over a new wage schedule in April. Since April the mine supplies have been grow ing steadily less.
 For the first six months of this year the increase in mine production over 1915 was about % per cent. So the demand for steam coal by factories and railroads must have been more than 35 per cent over the amount they consumed in 1915
 Usually from tEe middle of De- cember to the latter part Of January there is traffic lull that permits heavy shipments when stocks are scarce ct the points Of consumption. Operators do not expect this year this period of quiet trade in which Co catch up in distribution. They can see no relief in the demand for cars that are in the service carry ing goods to tiIewater for export. Usually too. during the winter. cars that serve tho lake trade are avail able for alIraii shipments. This season. on account of the amount or iron ore. coal and other products stored on the lake docks. these cars will be busy handling that material.
 The annual fall car shortage does not usually affect the coal trade so severely as other lines. for the rail. roads have provided ears for the exclusive use of coal The mines feel the effect Of the crop movement only in having less gondo!a cars at their service. Now the demand for steel mills and all Iron consum- ing industries is so urgent that the railroads have utilized cars especial ly built for the coal trade in carry ing iron ore and war munitions
 It is these conditions that cause coal operators to expect further ad- yances in prices The only part of the advancing price attributed to the domestic trade is the upward movement Of the last two weeks. This is the season when the house holder lays by his winter supply. Facing an advancing price and a short supply. the householder has be- come "feyerlsh" for deliveries. Even the more pessimistic dealers do not fear the inability Of the trade to carry out contracts or supply GUS toners. Deliveries for several months to come will simply be irregular. and customers will not have full orders filled at one delivery.

Prohibition only says to men: Thou shalt not sell None Of those who are commonly branded as fa- natics have gone so far as to say to individuals: Thou shalt not drink. The prohibitionists are against the traffic. But there are those who go to the far extreme of saying to men: Thou shalt not drink, and these are the simon pure fanatics of the prohibition cause. It will be interesting to study the species.
 The foregoing is a paragraph from new book on "The Logic of Pro- hibltion," by Rev. Matt s. Hughes the prohibition leader of Southern California His graphic word pie ture of the real prohibition fanat- ics oG the present day is interest ing reading:
 "The wbirling dervishes of pro- hibition fanacticism are the men who administer the great railroad systems of the United States.
 "They are leagues in advance Of the narrow and bigoted preachers the third-party voters the temper ance union women, and all the oth- CT cranks who vote to abolish the traffic. These are only asking that the state forbid the distiller and brewer to manufacture and the sa- loonkeeper and bartender to sell.
 But these railroad magnates are SO fanatical on the subject that they have actually issued orders to hun dreds Of thousands of free Ameri- can citizens, saying that they must not drink intoxicating liquors. In- deed, these railroad operators are such prohibition fanatics that they actually discharge their employees if they are only seen going into or coming out of a saloon, even when off duty.
 Not long ago the Pittsburgh & Lake Erie road discharged 126 men in the enforcement of this rule. And these fanatical outrages are per petrated in the name of human safe ty!
