PETRIFIED HONEYCOMB.

Kansas City. Mo-. Aug. 2S.-Two
hundred and sixty-five feet below the
surface in Oklahoma a petrified hon
eycomb was found by zinc miners sew
eral days ago. Alex. Finley, owner
of the mine, brought the specimen to
Kansas City TO have it examined by
biologists. The cells that formerly
contained honey are clearly outlined
in the rock. Judging by the depth OF
the stratum in which it was found
and the geological formation, the bees
built it more than 1000 years ago.
The annual value of the farm wood
lot products of the United States is
over $780, 100000.

CATTLE RATIONS FOR
MAKING FAST GAINS
SheIIed Corn, Alfalfa and Cotton
seed Meal Favored by the
Nebraska Station.

Shelled corn, alfalfa hay, and cot
tonseed meal gave the fastest gains
and greatest profit Of any Of the six
rations fed in the recent cattle feeding
experiment at the Nebraska agricul-
tural experiment station at Lincoln.
The other rations fed the different
lots in the experiment we're: Shelled
corn and alfalfa; ground corn and al
falfa; shelled corn, alfalfa, and silage;
shelled corn, alfalfa, silage the first
four weeks, and Tarkio molasses feed
the last IA weeks; and shelled corn,
alfalfa, and cottonseed meal the last
six weeks.
The go head of two-year-old steers
used In the experiment were bought
for $6.75 and were sold at prices rang
ing from $3.50 to 1915, or at a net
profit Of over 81, 100. The cattle were
fed in an open lot and under condi-
lions similar to those found on the Az
erage corn belt farm.

The boar that is worth keeping Mt
all Is worth keeping in n pen or lot
separate from the rest of the herd
Where y"ung boar is brought on the
place the advantages of keeping him
away from the other hogs are easy to
see.
The young boar will make a better
growth and develop better when left
to himself until he is at least n year
old. The older boar will keep in bet
ter condition If given the same care,
writes Adam Kinison of Illinois In
Farm Progress. There are other nd
vantage. too. that should not be over
lo0ked. For instance, when the boar
Is kept In a separate Enclosure the date
Of the breeding of the sows is always
known with eXactness and more pigs
will be saved at narrowing time.
Many boars have to be sold about
the time they are Mt their best because
of their picking up bad habits while
running in the pasture or with the rest
of the herd. If kept in special pens or
lots the boar has not the chance to
learn how to push over fence, break
through an Enclosure and become vi
cious and dangerous. Then, too. he is
always where he can be found when
he Is wanted.
OF course, 1t may cost little more
time and trouble to keep the boar sep
arately. 1t Is a great deal more trou-
BILE to watch the sows, breed them
when they should be bred and then re-
move from the boar's pen back to the
pasture or lot. You can grow hogs
without taking all this trouble just as
YOU can sometimes grow good corn
without blowing it as many times us
your neighbor plows his.

LOBELIA USED AS A DRUG
American Indians Gathered Plant for
Their Chests-caIied "indian
Tobacco"

American Indians found one plant
growing in damp woods, handsome In
spikes of pale blue flowers. which they
used as medicine.
When the white man came the same
plant won the favor both Of the apoth-
ecary and the gardner, but the gar
dener has paid more attention to Its
cultivation than has the apothecary.
Hence we know 1t more as flower
than us n drug. 1t Is the lObelia.
named for Matthias Lobel. a Flemish
physician and botanist. says the Phil
adelphla North American.
The medicinal substance In the plant
Is called lobelin. an alkaloid, although
the Indians probably didn't know it
The common use of the plant among
the abOrigines led the early settlers to
call 1t Indian tobacco"
When 1t Is cultivated for commerce
the seeds are scattered on the sur
face of the ground late in fall or early
In spring. They germlnate early 10
spring and send down roots.
When the flowers nre blooming the
plants are cut and dried In the shade.
An acre of good soil will yield l Oo9

GRAIN FOR CALVES
The FIRST SUMMER
First Aid Toward Profitable Baby
Beef Production-Feed
in Separate Lot.

Calves growing toward baby beeves
should have grain the first summer II
they are to develop rapidly, says the
animal husbandry department at Iowa
State college. One Of the chances Of
loss in making baby beef is slow
growth during the first summer when
gains are cheapest Of any time in the
steers life. Unless grain Is fed, some
of the milkfat will surely be lost when
pasture dries up and flies are bad.
Shelled corn and oats, half and half,
is n good mixture on which to start
calves. Linseed meal can be substi-
tuted for oats, which is usually very
high priced. Gradually increase the
amount of oil meal and reduce the oats
feed until calves are getting about
seven parts corn to one Of oil meal.
The grain should be fed in a creep, as
1t will not pay to let the cows get at
such high-priced feed. Place the creep
in q shady spot where the stock col
lect during the day. Feed the calves
all that they will clean up twice
day and watch 'em grow to profit"

DRESS PERCENTAGE
OF FARM ANIMALS
That of Hogs Is rs, Cattle SO
and Sheep R-variation
Due to Amount Of Flesh.

(By W. H. PETERS. North Dakota Ex-
pertinent Station)
The average dressing percentage of
hogs Is IS while of cattle it is 90 and
Of sheep 48. Part of this difference Is
due to the method of figuring. In the
case Of the hog the hide. head and
feet are included in the carcass
weight, while In the case OF cattle and
sheep the head, hide and feet are not
included. Then the hog is very thick
fleshed and has small digestive sys-
ten. Cattle and sheep have large
paunches and digestive systems. Sheep
dress out lowest due to the wool and
the rather light fleshing Of the car
cass.
The dressing percentage Of animals
Of each class varies widely. This Is
due to the amount of flesh, especially
fat present on the carcass and some
what to the thickness of the hide and
size Of the heads and legs, and to the
amount of fill or the amount Of feed
and water present in the digestive
tract ut the time Of slnughtering. For
the hogs the dressing percentage
varies from IS to IS per cent with an
average of rs. For cattle it ranges
from Al to 20 per cent with an aver
age of SO and for sheep from A to
SO per cent with an average of 4S per
cent.

course, and 1t should be Of reason

After the boar is well developed the
harm done by letting him run with the
herd will not be serious. But from
the time he Is four or five months old,
till he reaches the end OF his first
year, 1t Is important that he be kept

PROHIBITION AND THE FARMER.

PROHIBITION AND The FAHMEH.
There are in the United States
about 100000 farmers, and they
constitute ten per cent of the entire
population. The value of their an
nual products is approximately $10,-
OOO,OOOOOO. or $1,000 for each farm
er. The liquor interests claim that
should prohibition prevail the farm
ers will be deprived of their market
for this large amount of produce.
There is another side to this ques-
ton. Mr.. Charles Sickle has made a
careful study of the situation. He
says:
THE liquor industry purchases
of produce from the farmer, and
therefore the liquor industry con-
sumes just one per cent of all that
the farmer produces, that is, $40 for
each farmer in the United States. The
question is, what will the poor farm
err do with his SO worth of produce
which the liquor industry cannot pur-
chase when it is put out of business?
There are over 2O,OOO.OO0 families in
iHe OHlleu suites winch WOulu puT-
chase the stuff now sold to the liquor
men. According to n study made by
the department of labor of the United
States, the average workingman's
family spends annually about $500 for
food. This would make total Of at
least S1O,OOO,OOO,OOO per year for the
2O,OOO.OOO families.
'1f the 2O,OOO,OOO families were each
to Increase their purchasing power
one per cent, or So per year, it would
amount to exactly 1OOOOOOOO-the
sum of the liquor mems purchases
from the farmer. But let us assume
that the retail figure ut which the av-
erage family would be compelled to
buy is twice as high as the liquor
men pay. This would Increase the
amount necessary to be purchased to
$40 per year for each family, or about
twenty cents per week. There can be
no doubt that, with the increasing
earning power and spending ability of
the average wOrkingman's family due
to the abolition of the liquor traffic,
the average family will easily wish to
spend at least twenty cents more per
week for cherries. peaches, apples, ber-
ries and the various forms of grain, to
say nothing about flour and bread and
other materials which come primarily
from the farm"

MAY BE PREVENTED
Harm Can Be Avoided by Keep

Horsemen need to be on their guard
against overheating. Most cases of
overheating can be prevented by keep
Ing few simple things in mind.
Give at least pailful of water to
each horse about ten O'Clock and again
at three or four o'clock on hot day.
Be very careful with horse that
Is little out of health. If you are
working him on a hot day.
Look out for horse that after
sweating freely suddenly stops sweat
Ing. Put such horse in the shade as
soon as possible and give moderate
drink.
DO not put horse not in good con-
dition for hard work in the center of
a four-horse team In hot weather.
Work carefully on hot day when
the atmosphere is moist and heavy.
A horse can hardly get too hot to
water. but one must regulate the
amount by the temperature Of the
water.
In case of an attack of overheating,
the horse should be taken to the shade
as soon as possible. A treatment Of
the surface of the body, particularly
of the head, with cold water should De
given until the temperature is within
a degree or two of normal. Stimulants
should be given as early as possible,
In most cases it is better to plan to
avoid Oyerhea ting than to plan to treat
the horse for 1t.

FLIRTING WITH UNDERTAKEN.

Here is something that may give
the beer drinker pause: In Professor
Reinitzer's prisms, displayed conspic-
uOusly in the anti-alcOhOl exhibitions
of Europe, one cube represents a pint
Of pure alcOhOl-enough to kill man
on the spot. Alongside of this is
prism standing for IA 6-1O pints of al
cohol, the amount a man who drinks
a pint of beer daily takes into his sys-
TEN each year. 1t is a relatively sim
pie problem to estimate from these
comparisons just to what extent and
how fatuOusly beer drinker in pur-
suing his favorite avocation is flirting
