had promptly seized her scissors and
chased him downstairs into corner
until he begged her pardon.
The second week, as Tess was going
down on the freight elevator at noon
time, Tom took a bunch of flowers from
a pasteboard shoe box at his feet and
gave them to Telha. They were not
city flowers. Tess could see that. There

To obtain satisfactory results from

combined With some form of cancen-
truted feed. At the present time large
Quantities of such feed in the form Of
cottonseed meal and cake. corn. mo-
lasses. peanuts and beans are export
ed for the Use Of European feeders. If
the straw and sstover that are now
wasted were employed To feed more
cattle, these concentrates could be
consumed nj home. The result would
be IL tremendous saving not only in
the cost Of producing beef. but IN the
cost OF enrichng the soil as well. In
1914. for example. about 100000
tons of eottenseed meal-half the
totul prodaeti0n-were applied direct
ly to the soil as fertilizer. If this
had been fed to cattle instead. three
quarters of the fertiliZing vaiue
would have been returned to the soil
as manure The loss of the other
fourth would have been far more
than counterbalaneed by the profit on
the meat produced economically by
the meal and the necessary roughages.
Much the same thing is true of the

aware of tile fact that the high-pro-

of this quality is seldom sold on the
domestic markets because the Ameri-
can farmer has not yet learned its
value. Cottonseed and linseed are per
haps the best known of the oil meals
but there are others the use of which
az feed could be probably extended.
The efficient use of these and other
feeds discussed In the report is of the
| utmost importance 10. the American
farmer. 1t is pointed out, because the
day when close calculation in feeding
was not necessary Is, in all probability,
past. Hereafter 1t is likely that sue
cess will depend upon ability TO put

products are aud of the ways in which
they can be fed will result in the

A great deal of feed available for
cattle is now either wasted absolutely
or put to some less profitable use
Failure To utilize the full yalue OF this

minished the profits from cattle feed

According To reports of experts
who have made extensive experiments
along this line the loss In grain straw

S1oO,00oQo0 annually. Both of these
products are disposed of most econ
