The high test is often brought about

Ratlons With Variety,

A ration composed of numerous
wellchosen feeds is always superior
to ration having only two or three
different feeds Rations having much
variety are ordinarily more appetizing
than those that do not, so are of par
ticular value in restoring lost appe-
tite and the accompanying decreased

Objection has been raised to silage,

Use of Immature Corn.

Any corn which has attained nearly
its full height and In which ears are
formed will make excellent fodder II
it is cut before being severely frozen
and put into medium-sized shocks for
curing. 1t will also make fairly good
silage. Bundle corn or ensilage from
immature corn will make satisfactory
rough feed for sheep or stock cattle.

SUGAR DUTY IN
TURKEY FAILS
in ITS OBJECT
Differential Tariff Fails to-
Make Sugar Beets Grow in
Too Dry Climate

BERLIN, Germany.-The new dit
ferential tariff which has been adopt
ed in Turkey is meeting with much
criticism from Turkish economists
themselves, according 10 the German
Oriental Correspondence Bureau. The
increase in the duty on sugar 10 80 TO
40 per cent ad valorem, with the nj
tentio1 Of fostering susar beet cult
vatioll, for instance Is declared 10
have been mistake as the prevailing
drynt SIS OF the climate makes Turkish
soil l.! rdapted to growing sugar beets,
and rha result of the duty therefore
will be merely to increase the price of
sugar. 49,. 49,.
Similar criticism Is made against
duties of 20 TO 60 per cent ad valorem
on maize, barley, wheat and rice. The
critics say the soil and climate OF Tur-
KEY are better adapted for growing
far more valuable crops, and especial
ly cotton, than fer the grains named.
The result Of the high duties. they say,
will be that cotton and other valuable
products will be neglected in favor OF
products of less value and even the
latter Will be of poor quality. f..
Industrial circles are also inclined
to criticize the duties on many manu-
featured articles as too low. These
articles, they say, can be made in
Turkey as well and as cheaply as else
where, but the infant industries now
existing need encouragement. H.,
