CALL TO A LARGER
FIELD

Announcement made .yester-
day that Rev. Father Jerome Diss,
OF the Catholic church. had been
transferred to Bingham, Utah, and
that he would leave Tonopah on
August IS, was received by his
friends with deep regret. Father

The Liberty Gold Mines company
continues its development work and
reports good showings on a number

developed in widely separated places.
Clinton D.. Ray and a party of Wy

property. 1t is understood that the
first pieces of the new mill that is
being shipped in from Tonopah have
reached camp.

a group of five claims in the Liberty
district. He has received word that
a four-inch streak of the high grade
has been uncovered there. = Reno

WOMAN PLAYED HEROIC
PART IN THE CIVIL WAR
Gave Husband and Sons and
While They Were Away Dill
gently Cultivated Plantation.

Charleston, s. C.-During the first
days of that most lamentable conflict
that we now. know as the civil war
little woman In this state gave her
husband and their four grown sons to
fight for the cause that to her seemed
just. She was not belligerent; she was
brave. A few years later neighbor
brought her word that all but the
youngest boy had been killed, says
Hapsburg Liebe Of the Vigilantes.
"You shouldn't have sent them ALL"
said this neighbor. you should have
kept two of those boys at home.''
IF I had a dozen to send 1 would
have sent them," the little woman re-
piled very readily, very calmly. "And
I know that my men went down in
their boots, doing distinguished service.
You see, know my men,"
At the end of the war the youngest
boy returned. He was a captain, and
not captain merely by courtesy. As
he rode through the old plantation he
saw to his intense surprise that it was
In fair state Of cultivation and that
foodstuffs had taken the place of cot
ton. He had expected to find those
broad acres filed with weeds and bri-
ars As soon as he had proudly greet
ed his mother and been in turn proudly
greeted by her, he spoke of this.
'That was my part" she told him.
"YOu couldn't fight without having
something to eat, could you?"
It was then that he noted the marks
OF toll on her hands, and he knew that
the faithful old negroes had not done
all the hard work. He brought his heels
together in the military fashion and
lifted his hand to the rim of his hat.

A RAILROAD ARMY
Will Build Up Lines of Traffic In
France.
Nine REGIMENTS CALLED.

They Will Be Part Of Regular Force,
and at Head Of Each Regiment az
Colonel Will Be Engineer Officer of
Army-construction Will 30 Main
Work.
New York.-Need for expert railroad
men tn renair thu limos in France Is so
pressing that an urgent call has been
sent out by the railroads war board to
the various roads Of the country for
assistance in organizing nine regiments
Of railroad men to 60 at once to France.
They will be a part Of the regular
army, and at the head of each regiment
as colonel will be an engineer officer
of the army.
The plans of the board call for five
construction regiments, one shop or re-
pair regiment and three operating regi-
ments. Construction will be the main
work of the men sent over, but the re-
pair and operating needs are hardly
less Immediate. A notice sent out by
the railroads war board says:
1.-THE French railways are badly run
down. They need more or less complete
rehabilitation. France has no men who
can be spared for this work. She wants
all her men at the front. Before we can
train men to 60 into the trenches we
can supply Frances railroad wants.
and we can do 1t practically immedi-
ately. Any men we send over must be
soldiers, so it will be necessary for the
railroad forces to enter the army.
I'VE propose to make up five con-
struction regiments Of six companies
each to do this rehabilitation. Each
regiment will have an engineer officer
OF the United States army as colonel
and another officer from the army as
an adJutant. The other officers will be
made up of railroad men, except that
the commissary will be provided by
the United States army. Each lieuten-
ant colonel will be chief engineer of
railroad or some one else of similar
experience. The captains will be taken
from the engineers of maintenance of
way, the lieutenants from supervisors
or road masters and the noncommis-
stoned officers from track and bridge
foremen. The privates will be track
laborers.
The pressing need Just now Is for
officers for these regiments. They will
require five chief engineers, thirty en-.
gneers of maintenance. Of way, ninety
supervisors or road masters, sixty track
foremen and thirty bridge foremen.
Each company will have $50 track Ia
borers and fourteen bridge carpenters
as privates.
1.-THE next important requirement of
the French railways is for shop forces.
They are short of men to repair their
locomotives. It is proposed to organize
shop regiment, to be made up the
same way as the construction regi-
ments, except that the lieutenant colo
mel will be superintendent of motive
power, the captains will be master me.
chan1cs, the lieutenants will be shop
foremen and the noncommissioned off,
GERS gang foremen. The rest of the
company will be made up Of boiler
makers, machinists, blacksmiths and
their helpers"

TERMS USED IN FEEDING
Scientific Nomenclature Reduced to
Everyday MEANINGS.

StockfOod consists briefly of three
chief parts or compounds, emitting
the water and minerals. They are:
Protein containing nitrogen), a
muscle former.
Fat (not containing nitrogen), a
fuel or fattening substance.
Carbohydrates (meaning made Of
carbon, hydrogen and oxygen).
These three substances are called
organic matter, because they will
burn.
Mineral matter is called inorganic.
An animal can live on protein alone,
but would not under normal condi-
lions, because protein Cor albumen)
is only found mixed with fat in the
case OF meat and with fat and carbo-
hydrates in the case of plants and
cereals. Familiar examples of pro-
teln are white of egg, lean meat and
the gluten which can be chewed out
of wheat. Fat or oil we all know.
f. Carbohydrates include sugar.
starch, cellulose, fibre, gums, etc.
TO keep alive and not lose weight
an animal must have small amounts
OF protein and larger amounts of fat
or carbohydrates. They serve as
building material to replace WORKOUT
tissue and flesh and also to furnish
power (energy) to move, work, and
DO all the inside work of the body.
The ash or mineral matter fur

essary but abundant in nature. A
growing animal needs plenty of pro-
tein and ash (bone food) and of car
bohydrates and fae. A grown-up ami
NAL needs less of either the first two,
but plenty of the last two. A preg-
nant animal needs plenty of food for
its unborn young.

THE DAIRY RATION
Feeding Tables Hard to Follow on
Account of Variation of
INGREDIENTS
National Crop improvement Service.

National Crop improvement Service.]
For many years feeders have en-
deavored to use so-called standard
tables showing the theoretical num-
Der of pounds each of so-called d.
gestlble protein, fats and carbohy-
drates. These methods are fatally
defective for the following reasons:
First, the tables call for so much
digestible food. If there was such
thing as digestible food it might fur
nish basis to go by, but digestible
food is really apparently digestible
food, in that it disappears in the body.
Just what use is made of it is not al
ways clear. Some of it turns into gas.
some is converted into heat, and much
OF it is used in the labor of digesting
and handling the food. In the case
OF straw and similar material, nearly
all of its energy is used up in the
labor of digesting it, leaving little or
no net gain. Straw should be re-
turned to the soil. Take two samples
of dried barley grains, each contain
ing tie same amount of digestible
food, and one will give twenty more
therms or heat units than the other.
One hundred pounds of digestible
food derived from roughage Is about
equal to eighty pounds derived from
grain. so IL we add together things
which are unlike, we get no tangible
results. 1t is like adding so many
pounds to so many gallons. So, the
digestible basis of figuring rations is
very inaccurate. The correct way is,
first, to ascertain how much protein
and energy cow needs to sustain
life and keep weight. You can get
this from your experiment station,
and ascertain how much is necessary
to make one pound of milk of a GER
tain fat test, and then feed her as
much protein and energy as is needed
to maintain her and supply food for
as many pounds of milk as she can
make.
This is very difficult problem
and few can do it, and we challenge
any two men to tackle the same prob
lem under the same conditions and
arrive at the same result.
We cannot tell unless we try to find
out, that COW will not give more
milk on more feed, or maybe as much
milk on less feed. So feeding is large
ly experimental, as no two cows are
alike,
However, the law of averages will
hold, and the feeder can save all this
trouble and much loss by feeding a
ration which his experiment station
has in most cases made, say three to
four pounds of milk for each pound
of mixed feed.
There is one thing certain. The
more solids and fat in the milk. the
more feed needed per pound of milk.
So, good mixed feed which is prop.
erly combined and all the roughage
she will eat will greatly simplify your
feeding problem and vers- little ex-
perimenting will soon shaw you how
much concentrates each COW needs to
produce maximum yield
