New YORK, New maven q hdrtiofu'
A statement issued yesterday by John
Muir, president of the Railway In
vestors' League. after reiterating de-
mails of an impending receivershlp for
the road and that Howard Elliott IS to
resign as president. referred to a per-
manent financing plan through the is
suance of preferred stock as a posi-
bilty of the future. That such course
is contemplated was declared untrue
by bankers who have been interested in
the financing of the property in the
past. Concerning the New Ravens
maturing obligations and current earn
ings, Mr.. Muir's statement said: THE
directors have no doubt whatever OF
their ability to meet the s25,000,00
note issue maturing May !. 1917, and
the note issue Of s20,O00,000 Of the
New England Navigation Company,
which have been cited in some quarters
as possible reasons for receivership.
Negotiations for taking care Of both OF
these note issues are we'll advanced. II
is hoped that the New England Naviga-
ton Company may be liquidsted before
NAV I and that the notes Of both COM
panies may be met by direct issue of
New Haven company notes alone. The
earnings OF the New Haven have been
very satisfactory. Estimates for the
coming six months anticipate $4,000, 900

HOW TO AVOID BITTER MILK
Use Of Laxative Feeds ls Recommend
ed ss Notwithstanding
Difficulties Relieved.

Both the quality and quantity OF
herds milk production depend on the
physical fitness Of the cows as well
as on the nutrients In the feed. Bitter
milk and milk with strong odOr both
indicate that something in the cows
digestive system Is out Of order. A
few doses of Epson salts are frequent
ly of benefit, but a better method is
to choose the feed that disorders will
not occur.
Among dairy feeds that are in
clined to be constipating and a cause
Of bitter milk are corn fodder, corn
stover, timothy hay (and most hays ex-
cept those from leguminous crops like
clover and alfalfa), all straws, cotton
seed meal.
Among the feeds that are laxative
in their effect on the system are lin
seed meal, wheat bran, silage, hay
from the legumes, roots, tubers and
fruits, all fresh green feeds.
The use of feeds in the second list
will in large measure prevent Bit
ter milk and also the difficulties Of
churning cream skinned from such
milk

HARVEST CROPS WITH SWINE
Results Given of Experiment Conduct
ed by Ohio Station--Best Gains
Made on Clover.

In tests made by the Ohio station
three lots of pigs were fed 80 days
as follows: Lot 1, ear corn and Glow
er pasture; lot 2, allowed to hog down
rye, and lot 8, ear corn and rape pas
ture. In addition all lots were fed
approximately one-fourth pound Of
tankage daily per pig. The respective
lots made average daily gains Of 0.82,
O.57 and 0.75 pounds per pig, and con-
sumed, aside from pasture, 2.66, 6.S4,
and 2.91 pounds Of feed per pound Of
gain. Lot 2 was then put in with lot
/ on clover and lot 8 remained on the
rape, where the pigs were fed for 20
days. The pigs on clover made an av-
erage daily gain per pig Of 0.75 pounds,
consuming 3.64 pounds of feed aside
from pasture per pound Of gain, and
the lot on clover, 0.87 pounds gain,
consuming 8.16 pounds Of feed per
pound of gain.

What,a the Answer2

A short time ago Prof. II. B. Cough,
head Of the public-speaking depart
ment at DePauw university, delivered
talk In a small town in Lawrence
county, near Bedford, says the Indian
apolis News. He was being cOngratu-
lated on the talk when one farmer In
the audience edged his way to the
speaker and asked whether he was in
hurry. Professor Cough, who had
to make certain train, said no, other
than he wished to get home at GER
tain time. The farmer, instead Of in
vIting him to a fine fried chicken din
ner, said "Say. my boy and me heard
your talk, and we wanted to know
whether 1t was a sermon or an adj
Dress" Professor Cough made his
train and reached home without par
taking of any fried chicken.

GIVE CALF PALS ATTENTION
During Warm Weather Especial At
tentlon Should Be Given 10 vteT-
siIs--keep Them Clean.

The farmer who uses the swill pail
for feeding calves or who hangs the
pail on a post between feelings with
out washing it will soon be looking for
a cure for calf scours. The dirty calf
pail is one Of the chief causes Of
scours. according to L. w. Wing, Jr.,
Of the University of Missouri College
Of Agriculture. With the fly season
and warm weather at hand extra pre-
cautions must be taken in caring for
the calf pals. They should be washed
thoroughly after each feed and steri-
liked either with steam or hot water.
After the pals have been sterilized
they should be inverted in clean
protected place until time to use them
again.

YES! MAGICALLY!
CORNS LIFT OUT
WITH FINGERS

You say to the drug store man,
"Give me a small bottle Of freezcne."
This will cost very little but will
positively remove every hard or soft
corn or callus from ones feet.
A few drops of this new ether COM
pound applied directly upon tender,
aching corn relieves the soreness in
stantly, and soon the entire corn or
calIus, root and all, dries up and can
be lifted off with the fingers.
This new way to rid ones feet OF
corns was introduced by Cincinnati
man, who says that freezone dries In
a moment, and simply shrivels up the
corn or callus without irritating the
surrounding skin.
If your druggist hasn't any freezone
tell him to order a small bottle from
his wholesale drug house for you.-adv,

FEED CALVES SKINNED MILK
Richer in Protein Than Whole MIX,
but Lower In Carbohydrates
Use Clean Vessels.

Skinned milk is a little richer in
protein than whole milk, but lower In
carbohydrates. Since most Of the fat
has been removed in the cream the
skinned milk will need carbohydrates
to make 1t a balanced ration for
calves.
A good plan is to replace a portion
of the whole milk with SKINNED milk,
gradually increase the skinned milk
with some form Of carbohydrates till
all Of the whole milk is replaced by
