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 If
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 a 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 a shady spot where the stock col
lect during the day. Feed the calves
all that they will clean up twice q
day and watch 'em grow to profit

THE FATE OF THE FoReERs.

On Tuesday morning, March 7, 1775,
Mr.. Robert Perreau walked into the
banking house of Drummond Brothers,
at Charing Cross. He was greeted
cordially by the bankers, for Mr.. Per-
reau, although merely an apothecary,
was Napoleon among apothecaries.
and was u welcome guest at the houses
of the great. Within week the bank
ers had seen him at Lord Egmonts
and Lady Lyttleton's. On the occasion
Mr.. Perreau was full of business.
Producing as security a bond for
1900, signed by william Adair
whose signature would be honored at
any banking house, he asked for the
loan of $4,000.
The banking brothers scrutin!zed the
document closely, and Henry Drum
mond said: "It doesn't LOOK like the
signature of Mr.. Adair."
sit isn't the signature of William
Adair," agreed Robert Drummond. 'I
have seen his signature a hundred
times and know 1t as well as my own"
"There is no doubt about r." said he.
'It is witnessed by Arthur Jones, his
solicitor, and by Thomas Stark, his
servant"

Henry Drummond. Let us go and see

The boar that is worth keeping at
all Is worth keeping in u pen or lot
separate from the rest of the herd.
Where young 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 a 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
vantages. too, that should not be over
looked. For instance, when the boar
is kept in a separate inclosure the date
of the breeding of the sows is always
known with exnctness and more pigs
will be saved at farrowing time.
Many boars have to be sold about
the time they are at 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 inclosure 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
nrately. 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 plowlng 1t as many times as
your neighbor plows his.

In,portant TO Mothara
l0BELIA USED AS A DRUG
American Indians Gathered Plant for
Their chests-calIed "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 it more rs a flower
than as n drug. 1t is the lobelia,
named for Matthias Lobel, Flemish
physician and botanst, says the Phil
adelphia 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 it Indian tobacco"
When it is cultivated for commerce
the seeds are scattered on the sur
face of the ground late in fall or early
in spring. They germinate early in
spring and send down roots.
When the flowers are blooming the
plants are cut and dried in the shade.
An acre of good soil will yield 900
to l 200 pounds of herbs.

DRESS PERCENTAGE
OF FARM ANIMALS
That of Hogs Is rs, Cattle So
and Sheep 48-Variation
Due to Amount of Flesh.

(By w. II. PETERS. North Dakota Ex-
pertinent Station.)
The average dressing percentage Of
hogs is rs while of cattle it is 53 and
of sheep 4S. 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 a 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 at the time of slaughtering. For
the hogs the dressing percentage
varies from 65 to S5 per cent with an
average of 10. For cattle 1t ranges
from AZ to 10 per cent with an aver
age of SO and for sheep from A to
So per cent with an average of 4S per
cent.

If Perreau's heart sank into his boots
at this proposition he made no sign.
He seemed quite willing, and an
nounced that his coach was at the door.
So he and the Drummond brothers
climbed aboard and drove to the resi-
dence of Adair, the rich army agent.
Arrived there, the Drummonds explain
ed the business to Adair. who de-
nounced the bond as a forgery the min
ute he set eyes upon it.
The Drummonds turned to Perreau
and sternly asked him how he came
into possession of the bond. BY this
time the apothecary was uneasy, and a
cold sweat was on his forehead. "Send
for my sister-in-law," he stammered,
land she will explain"
The sister-in-law, known to society
as Mrs. Daniel Perreau, was sent for
and soon arrived, a dazzlingly beauti-
full creature. Although known through
out the town as the wife of Daniel,
there never had been a marriage, and
her true name was Caroline Rudd.
The writer's of the period describe her
as the prettiest, wittiest and most cap
tivating woman in London. She must
have been charming, so many good
judges of beauty praised her, but the
numerous pictures of her still in exist
ence are disappointing to those who
have read the ecstatic descriptions.
Ushered into the Adair residence. the
situation was explained to her. and she
realized its gravity at once.
81 forged the bond" she said. The
bankers didn't think that probable, or
even possible, whereupon she asked for
a pen and sheet of paper, and dashed
off duplicate of the signature on the
bond. By this time Daniel Perreau had
arrived. ard also a constable, who had
been sent for by the bankers. But the
constable was sent away. Mrs. Rudd
made such an impression upon the
Drummonds that they consented to for
get the whole occurrence, and the Per-
reaus, with the woman who had saved
them, drove away.
Had the Perreaus let things rest
there, they might have got out of their
difficulties. But there were other for
geries afloat, and discovery of the truth
might come at any time, 30. in order
10 protect themselves. and arrange for

The point Is that you are more GER

self.
During the summer the boar is not
much more trouble to take care of
when penned up than he would be II
running with the herd. Where there
is lot big enough to furnish green
feed he will need but one feed of grain
n day and IL the pen or lot is handy to
the barn that will be very little trou-
bic. Water must be furnished, OF
course, and 1t should be of reason
able purity.
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, IL is important that he be kept
to himself. Where the boar is given
this much of an opportunity to grow
bone and muscle he will usually get
along all right when permitted to stay
with hogs six months old and older.
Unless he can be given the proper
sort of lot to run In, Is fed enough
and kept growing, 1t will be better not
to try to keep him up at all. If the
only place for him is in dry lot and
he is not fed right and watered regu-
larly It will be better to let him run
with the rest of the herd and take his
chances with them on the pasture.

goat, they went to BoRstreer nnd
laid information against 'the female
forser." This cowardly attempt to pro-
tect themselves at the expense of the
woman who had risked everything to
save them, deprived them of public
sympathy in the time to come, when
they needed it most. The judges took
the measure of Robert Perreau, and
sent him as well as the woman to
prison. The next day Daniel Perreau
followed them. This Daniel was a
great fop, who cut a wide swath among
the macaronis. He and Robert were
twins, and greatly resembled each 9TH
er in appearance, but Robert was a
keen business man, a money maker,
while Daniel was wastrel. Both
brothers were specializing In Exchange
alley, and it was this that led them to
forgery.
The story of what followed in the
courts is too complicated to be de-
tailed in a brief narrative. Mrs Rudd,
who had been the ally of the brothers.
was infuriated by their treachery. and
became their bitterest enemy. She tes-
titled that she did sign the bond. as she
had confessed, but did IL in fear of her
life, Daniel standing over her with an
open knife until it was done. She had
committed other forgeries under simi-
lar conditions. These other forgeries
began to turn up, and they totaled an
enormous sum.
The public interest In the Perreau
case was so great for year that even
the rebellion of the American colonies
attracted comparatively little atten-
ton. The newspapers were full of the
case, and every man who could charter
printing press was busy issuing
| broadsides. A certain Admiral Frank
land, known as "Old Shiver-Me-Tim-
bers," used up gallons of Ink assaillng
Mrs. Rudd, and thereby created sym
pathy for her, which was the very
thing he didn't want TO do. And Mrs.
Rudd had her champions among the
great writer's of the time.
In the course of time the Perreau
brothers were brought to trial. and
their guilt was 50 evident to the jury,
when all the testimony was in, that
they were convicted without the waste
of moment, and sentenced to death,
Many people believed then, and many
argue even at this late day, that the
brothers were the dupes of the design
ing Mrs. Rudd, but this theory didn't
appeal to the court.
Being convicted and sentenced, the
Perreaus were sent back to Jail to
await the outcome of the trial of Mrs.
Rudd. The fact that she was brought
to trial at all was the occasion of much
