REsENTs LIQUOR DOMINATION.

The Milk Wagon Drivers union of Chicago is dry, and refused to permit one of its banners to be carried in the so-called personal liberty" demonstra- tion of November '. None of our men were in that parade" said the secre- tary of the union, and I don't believe there would have been very many union men there at all, outside of the beer keg drivers and other lines of the liquor business, if they hadn't been driven to march. l saw letter myself sent to a member of the Ice Drivers union th eateni@g the loss of his job if he didn't appear in the pa rade. That's a nice brand of personal liberty!"
 Within the ranks of union labor there is growing up a fighting senti- ment against the domination of the liquor interests, and incidents like this, and others which might be cited, are giving impetus to the movement

it takes them half the following sum. mer to regain, besides losing quality which can never be regained. The ration fed should be conducive to growth rather than to fattening Here again the succulence of sllage is very supply protein and mineral matter Instead of cottonseed meal, oats is ex- cellent when not too expensive. The requirement of grain should be gauged by the results desired Cotton seed meal is not safe for feeding calves and should not be used. A small amount of corn if legumes are used for roughage could be used. If crowded too much during the first winter the gains on pasture the fol- lowing summer, however, are general ly disappointing
 The fattening of beef cattle in Ar kansas has thus far been successful only to limited extent. Our class of cattle and feed available have made the short periods of fattening, say ninety days. more profitable than the long periods of say one hundred and eighty days The grain rations neces- sary for the long periods has proved too expensive although the Arkansas feeder has very cheap and efficient concentrate in cotton seed meal. How ever, it cannot be fed in large quan- titles for only the short period and the corn-fed finish cannot be attained with cotton seed meal alone AS the growing of corn becomes more gen eral, the time will come when the finishing of cattle can be done as well and as profitably In Arkansas as it is now being done in the corn belt states and perhaps even more so.
 The greatest needs of Arkansas TOT the profitable growing and fattening of beef cattle are the eradication of the fever tick so that cattle can make normal growth, the introduction of better blood through good sires, which will quickly follow tick eradication. and a better understanding of stock growing so that the favorable condf- tions which prevail can be taken ad- vantage of to the fullest extent.

FOR THE GOOD OF THE GAME.

A license was granted for the sale of liquor on Chicagos new automo- bile speedway. but the management decided to keep it dry. A member of the committee thus explains the ac- tion: For the good of the automo- bile racing game and for the uplift- ing of the sport here and everywhere we have decided to prohibit the sale of intoxicating liquors on the grounds Baseball would never be what 1t is today if 1t had not been for the pro- hibiting of intoxicants on the grounds, and we want to make a clean and pleasing start at our new speedway Beer should not be allowed on the grounds, leave alone sold inside the park, and this rule which prohibits the sale will stand as the speedway races continue-and that will be for years and years.'
