Washington, June 22.-The svlect
i've draft will bear more heavily up
on those states which failed to fill
their quotas of regular army and ma
tional guards than upon those which
have answered the nations call al
ready.
Appeal For 10000. 49,.
The president has appealed for 20,
900 men to bring the regular army
up to war strength by July !, but il
is not likely that those states which
have failed to respond so far will
furnish many of these enlistments.
Representative Mccormick of ILL
nois said he would present to the
house today an analysis OF the rec
ords of the states in the regular army
enlistments. Mr.. McCormick's state
ments indicate that recruiting Is al
its lowest ebb in the South and New
England, Vermont making the. poor
est showing of any state in the Union
with less than 10 per cent. Nevada

in the case of the pullets fed beef
scrap.
The birds should have plenty to eat,
but they also should always be
eager for each meal. If one-third of
the scratch grain furnished them is
fed in the morning and two-thirds at
night, the birds will take more exer-
else than if they receive all the grain
they desire in the morning. Good
scratch mixtures may be made of
equal parts by weight of cracked corn,
wheat, and oats, or of two parts of
cracked corn and one part each of
wheat and oats.

FIRST ENGINEER ON
BELMONT BRANCH DEAD

j. w. Gordon, aged SO, for more
than half century resident of this
section, died at hospital in st. Louis
Sunday, January %, and was buried
Tuesday at Morley, Rev. Forsythe
having charge Of the funeral services.
Mr.. Gordon was engineer on the first
locomotive that pulled train. on the
Belmont Branch of the Iron Mountain.
This was fifty years ago when the iron
horse had to be fed with wood. In
those days the smoke stack was all
most the biggest part Of the engine,
and huge screen protected the coun-
try from the showers Of sparks. Such
a locomotive would be great Curl
osity now. Many years Mr.. Gordon
had been a pensioner and lived all
alone in small house at Morley. He
was the oldest man in Scott county
and is survived by one daughter, Nell.
He made Morley his headquarters
while on the railroad and at that
place met his wife, Laura Johnson,
who was a eacher.-Scott County

OBITUARY.

Maud Ethel Phillips was born in
Iron County, December 22nd, 1890
and died January 9th, 1917, aged 70
years and % days.
She was united in marriage to Jas
Ralph Watson, April 10, 1911. To
this union one child was born, Mil
dred Viva Watson. Mrs. Watson had
been an invalid for the past eighteen
months. Thinking perhaps a change
of climate might restore her to health
she spent several months in New
Mexico Her condition did not inn
prove and she was brought back to
Missouri to await the final summons
to the land of endless day. Knowing
that her departure was az hand she
prepared herself to meet tn end in
pace and hope. She testified to her
saving faith in Christ, his abiding
peace in her heart and passed away
peacefully. She had been a member
OF the Methodist Church since a
young girl having united with II at
lronton, Mo. at the age OF thirteen
years.
Her husband and little daughter
survive her. Her mother, Mrs.
America Massey, her brothers and
sisters also mourn her decease. The
funeral service was conducted from
the home in ST. Francois by her pas
tor, Rev. Morse II. Markley, and the
body laid to rest in the X. OF P. ceme-
terry.
"Why should our tears in sorrow
When God recalls his own
! And bids them leave world OF woe
For an immortal crown?
Is not cen death gain TO these
Whose life TO God is given?
Gladly to earth their eyes they
close,
To open them in heaven.
Their tolls are past, their work Is
done
And they are fully blest;
They fought the fight. the victory
won,
And entered into rest.
Then LET our sorrows cease TO flow:
God has recalled his own;
But lei our hearts in every woe,
Still say. "Thy will be done"

INFERIOR FEEDING sTUFFs.

Missouri has no feed stuffs law and
without such law there is no means
of protecting the users of concentrates
against inferior or adulterated feeds.
The present high price of feed stimu-
lates the introduction of inferior
grades on the part of the suscrupu-
lous manufacturers.
The Missouri College OF Agricul-
ture has recently examined four sam
pies of feeds which would indicate the
nature OF some Of the adulterations.
Two samples of cottonseed meal
showed less than 20 per cent protein,
and q and 20 percent respectively OF
crude fiber. A choice cottonseed
meal should run over forty per cent
protein and not exceed nine per cent
of crude fiber. A cold pressed cotton
seed cake or meal, which is the resi-
due from the, extraction of the oil
from the entire seed (meat and hulls)
contains about rs per cent protein and
p or 23 per cent fiber. The two
samples referred to indicate that more
than the amount OF hulls which should
belong with the original seed is pres
ent.
The best grade of molasses feed is
ground alfalfa mixed with an equal
weight of cane sugar molasses. This
makes very good feed. In sample
recently examined, ground corn cobs
were used to soak up the molasses in
stead OF good alfalfa Another sam
pie which contained roughage for the
absorption OF the molasses. Evidently
these feeds have been sold at ap-
proximately the price OF high grade
feeds. A feed stuff law should compel
the manufacturer to indicate the in
gradients used in every mixed feed
placd upon the market.

little trouble to providing his birds
with the most favorable surroundings
for the winter.
The house should be thoroughly
cleaned, disinfected, and made tight
before the cold weather sets in. If
the house has a dirt floor, it is well
to remove three or four inches of the
dirt from the top and to replace this
material with dry gravel or sand. On
cement or wooden floors A or inches
of fresh straw or litter may be thrown
down after the floor has been cleaned.
Ventilation is another important
factor to consider. The house should
be tight on three sides, but for the
fourth muslin curtains may be used
for from one-third to one-half its eX-
tent. In any case, there should be
some ventilation in the house, even
on the coolest nights. Fowls will
stand considerable cold air, provided it
it dry, and ventilation will keep the
air thoroughly dry in the house. On
the other hand, drafts are likely to
cause roup and other trouble.
Many farmers, in feeding their
birds, overlook the fact that beef
scrap or some similar feed is very es-
sential during the winter months if
good supply of eggs is to be OBJ
tanned. A convenient method of feed
ing beef scrap is in mash made Of
three parts corn meal and one part
each of wheat bran, wheat middlings,
and beef scrap. SKINNED milk or but
ter milk may be used in place of the
beef scrap, but if the supply is linn
tied some scrap also should be fed
In experiments conducted by the
department it was found that for the
first four months pullets fed on ra-
ton containing beef scrap produced,
on an average, 41.5 eggs, while those
fed the same ration without the scrap
produced only 1877. The cost Of feed
ing the latter birds was 90 cents high
er for every dozen eggs produced than

came to Charleston in 1859. He en-
barked in the marble business, and
was later associated with A. H. Dan
