There seems to be some misunder-
standing about the enrolment this
year. IL is very simple process.
Every voter must enroll this year just
as he did in 1914. New enrolment
books have been sent out to the var.
ious clubs. Go to the book and put
your name, age. address and occupa.
ton on il and you can vote i'm the
coming primary. But if YOU neglect
to re.enroll then you cannot vote. The
books close the last Tuesday in July.
There is plenty of time But do not
put this matter OF enrolling off. YOU
MUST ENROLL AGAIN THIS YEAR.
The County Executive Committee
will hold an important meeting in the
Court House, July s, at 1920 A. NJ.
Every member is hereby urged to be
present.

TIMELY FARM SUGGESTIONS
VIII
BY TAFT BUTLER


pose that man can learn the live.
STOCK business from his own expert.
ence only as that he can learn 1t from
books alone. There is no one thing
which retards the development OF the
livestock business in the South more
than the failure to appreciat, the ne.
cessity for reading and study. Live.
stock husbandry is the most difficult
ana the highest type of farming be-
cause it requires knowledge of crop
production and in addition knowl.
edge OF breeding and feeding. The
breeding and feeding of livestock de.
nlahds wide range of knowledge
me idea that any one can do these
or a failure to appreciate just what
they do mean is responsible for many
failures. Study. hard study OF books,
and much actual practice, are requr
ed-not one, but both.
TX
The livestock man who expects to
succeed must know what others in
the same line OF work are thinking
and doing. This is true of every other
line OF endeavor. and livestock pro.
duction is no exception. 1t is neces
sary that he attend meetings where
livestock subjects are discussed and
that he go to the fairs where good
livestock are exhibited and Judged
and where livestock producers con.
gregate and discuss their business
Any man of intelligence who takes
advantage OF meetings of livestock
nf ,I,
sales can make them a splendid means
to liberal education in his business
Every livestock producer in the south
should attend at least one state fair
this fall and carefully study the live.
stock Judging. If there is a state live.
stock association he should attend its
meetings, and every cattleman should
attend the meeting of the Southern
Cattlcmcn's Association at Shrcvc.
port. La. August 16. II and Is, 1916.
There will be good program. good
cattle and public sales.
X.
The pigs, calves, colts, COWS giving
milk and hens that lay eggs will need
something more than corn and corn
fodder next winter. No cotton seed
meal will not entirely supply the def.
cheney, although it will help. Corn.
corn fodder, sorghum or other grass
hay and cottonseed meal will enable
the animal to live and some OF them
to do fairly well, but to complete the
feeds, balance the rations and supply
the bone and muscle-making materials
liberal allowance OF legumes is es.
sential. We need a rich protein feed
to take the place OF cottonseed meal
where it cannot be safely used to sup
ply the full needs OF the animal. Soy
beans supply a good rich protein con-
centrate and there are numerous le.
gumes for furnishing a rich protein
roughage. We will be prepared to
grow livestock when we plant half the
land now planted to corn to soy beans
and other legumes and make the other
half yield 40 bushels Of corn or more
per acre. Until then, most profit in
livestock in the South will come from
the grazing OF cattle on our cheap
lands.
