PROPER RATIONS FOR LAMBS
Mixture of Corn, Oats, Linseed Oil
Meal and Bran Is Recommended
for Young Animals.

(Ohio College of Agriculture Bulletin)
A good grain ration for lambs Just
beginning to eat is ground corn, one
part; crushed oats, one part; linseed
oil meal, II part; and wheat bran.
two parts. Wheat bran is very es-
sential in this ration. and the shep-
herd should always see that it is pres
ent. A grain ration consisting of two
pounds of wheat bran, one pound of
oats (crnshed oats being preferred),
n pound Of finely ground corn meal,
and one-half pound of oil meal has
proved to be an excellent grain ration
for young lambs. 1t has also been
found that a grain mixture of oil meal
and corn meal has given better re-
suits than a mixture of cottonseed
meal and corn meal.

MORE IMPROVED LIVE STOCK
High Prices Make It Profitable for
Farmer to Produce His Own Ami
mails for Feeding.

The recent rapid rise in the price
paid for all kinds of live stock is max
ing it more and more profitable for
the average farmer to produce his own
young stock for feeding rather than
TO buy the high-priced product of the
plains for this purpose. Conditions in
America today are more nearly like
those prevailing in European countries
In regard to live stock than they have
ever been for an extended period in
the history of our country.
If the present conditions remain as
they are for a few more years there
will be noticed a rapid improvement
of the farm herds and flocks. Former
ly the range was large enough to crowd
out the competition of the cornbelt
meat producer. Then the range began
to produce only feeders and today the
cornbelt farmer is rapidly taking over
this phase of the cattle business as the
range is becoming smaller and smaller
and is more and more unable to supply
the demand for beef.

the front legs resulting from their
striking the ground are considerably
relieved by sloping shoulders, while
straight shoulders, by not having this
effect, tend to promote early unsound-
ness of these limbs.
Strong constitution, endurance, good
front action, and style are associated
with deep, well-sloped shoulders. For
draft purposes the shoulders should
have pronounced offsets, so that the
face of the collar will have plenty of
bearing surface. The position of the
collar on shoulders which are deep
enough is not materially changed. The
heavier the pull the tighter the collar.
On shallow shoulders collar is
squeezed back with the result that the
skin and muscles beneath the collar
are often sore. Sharp, thin. prominent
withers add depth and wearing quail
ties to the shoulder. Shoulders that
run well into the back in the saddle
horse aid in holding the saddle in
place.

Raymond, Miss, Sept. 20. 1917.
Editor Sentinel:
Pat Harrison's speech at P%ontotoc,
saying he had always worshipped at
the shrine of the White Chief. I'D to
the time he had decided to defeat
him for the senate, is a mighty poor
political card to play. l have little
patience with the deserters and GER
tainly will never be a supporter of
one.
Vardaman is the same now that
he has been and those that once
lauded him so dearly and fought and
paid for his advancement in politics.
are deserving of no sympathy. / am
candid to say that Ex-Governor Noel
seems to be the logical mar for he
has v been a supporter, political
or even a personal friend of Varda-
man and is safe and sound and fully
competent to serve the dear people.
Congressman Harrison has under
taken a Herculean take-knocking
Vardaman and running for the senate
while Noel is going to reap the
harvest. We can vote for him with
a certainty that he has never been
tainted with Vardaman and he will
be a credit to the state.

Will Not Be Able
To Secure Sacks

According to reports from the As-
ricultural College at Corvallis, farm
ers will meet up with a shortage cf
grain sacks next year unless they pro-
vide for bulk storage Sack prices are
shooting skyward, and the price is
distinctly uncertain. If sacks are
available at all it will be only at pro-
hibitive prices. The only alternative
to dumping the grain on the ground
is paying four times or more the
value of sacks or providing for bulk
handling.
Even If sacks were available and
the prices were right, the additional
cost and work Of sack handling is
enough to induce the thinking farmer
to adopt the bulk plan. Besides this,
the sacked grain will be shipped from
interior points in the dirt, while bulk
grain will be cleaned, brought to
grade and shipped TO the terminals
at the least expense and with no dock
age.
Bulk handling means equipment
for handling the grain from the
threshing machine to the farm stor-
age bins From these it may be load
ed into cars from the loading plat
form. Better still, elevators may be
located at the shipping point where
the grain may be cleaned, graded and
loaded under the most favorable con-
ditions possible

Cabaret Admission

for refreshments as the cost of ad-
mission, where no admission fee is
charged, the proposed tax is l cent
on each 10 cents or fraction thereof
of such 20 per cent of the total
charge. If, for instance, the check

NeSpe|eIn. 2: Rex. |.

NESPELEM, May 28.-One of the
most holly contested games ever
played on the local diamond was
that of yesterday when the fast team
from Rex went down to defeat be-
fore the local team. When the
writer arrived, which was some
what delayed by his failure to be in
direct connection with the two bits
usually demanded of him by the
gate keeper, the first half of the Sec
ond inning was being played. In
quiry revealed the fact that no
scores had been run in.
Wilson's two base hit for Nespe-
lem in the second was the first real
excitement that came. But he stay
ed there until the end of the inning.
In the fourth Benson of Rex hit a
one baser and stole second but was
out of it when Kirkpatric famed.
From that time until the last of
the sixth there was nothing but one,
two, three and out. But in the last
half of the sixth Jake Kunz of Mes
pelem got hit with the ball then
stole second but went out with the
side.
When Joe Arcasa ran in score in
the last half of the eighth, the visi-
ons that had been gathered around
of a seventeen inning game were
suddenly dispelled. But when AL
bert William, of Rex, ran in one for
Rex in the first half of the ninth,
there was wild roar on both sides.
When the local team took their
turn at bat in the ninth with the
score tied at one to one there were
some real grim faces and strong re-
solutions. But the first man up
made a safe hit, stole second and
came in on Wilson's two-base hit.
This ended the game though only
one man was out and one on second.
