P0RKERS MUST HAVE PROTEIN
Skim Milk or Eattcrr1i,lS Best Supple
n1ent to Home Grown
Grains.
BY Pror. C -. BROWN,
Department of Animal Husbandry

BY PP0r. G -. BROWN,
Department of Animal Husbandry
Michigan Agriculture College.
East Lansing, Mich.-While most
complaints i'm the public print within
the past year or two have had to do
almost exclusively with the high cost
of food, the thing that has been both
ering the livestock man has been the
high cost of feed-feed for hogs cat
tie and sheep, And If market quota
tons mean anything the situation
won't be much pleasanter this coming
winter.
But while all feeds are abnormally
high ii must not be thought that COM
mercial concentrates should not be
purchased. AS matter of fact, the
greater the value of home grown
! grains such as corn, barley and rye,
the more urgent the necessity for Sc
curing protein concentrate to prop
erly balance the ration. A bushel of
corn, fed alone. will produce only from
| nine to ten pounds Of pork, but IL II
is properly balanced with other feeds
one bushel will produce at least IL
pounds of pork.
For swine feeding the best supple
ment to homegrown grains is skim
milk or buttermilk, when they are OBJ
tainable. When three pounds or less
of milk are fed for each pound of
grain, 300 pounds OF milk are equal in
feeding value to 100 pounds Of grain
Where skim milk is available for pig
and calf feeding ii is not necessary to
purchase a protein fed.
OF the commercial protein feeds 60
per cent digested tankage is one of
the best feeds obtainable for swine
feeding-containing large amount Of
protein (muscle-building materially and
also of ash. for bone building. Sixty
per cent digested tankage containing
54 pounds Of digestible protein and
1927 pounds Of digestible fat is selling
at "a per hundredweight. Figured on
the basis Of protein alone, each pound
of protein costs IA cents, which is a
lower cost per pound than in any
other commercial feed. Unfortunate
ly tankage is suitable for swine feed
ing only. and then only In limited
amounts in combination with the
grains rich in carbohydrates as corn.
wheat or barley. In combination with
the above grains not more than one
tenth part Of the ration by weight
should consist Of tankage.

Many Indian Languages.

Before you write the government or

quest it to send you the Indian name
for this or that thing, bear in mind
that there is no one American Indian
language, says the Popular Science
Monthly. On the contrary, there are
no less than one thousand languages
in the two Americas and practically
Ave hundred distinct Indian languages
north of Mexico. Thus, 1t is impossible
to give the Indian word for any Eng
lish equivalent. II you do receive an

Is probably chosen from the language
of the tribe which once inhabited the
particular part Of the country from

HE TRIED TO QUIT TOBACCO
Tokyo Lawyer, After Months Of Alb
stinence, Resumed Smoking on
doctors ORDERS"

A prominent Tokyo barrister-at-law,
Mr.. Masuo Soeda, has long been low
er of tobacco and so have the men,
bers of his family, says East and West.
Most of the servants in his household
were likewise addicted to "the weed"
One day last winter Mr.. Soeda unex-
pectedly issued an anti-tobacco proc
lamation! He assembled the entire
household and delivered TRADE
against the poisonous effects of nico-
tine upon the human system. From
the viewpoints of physical welfare,
moral well being and national econo-
my, he commanded his domestic audi
tors to follow his example by ceasing
the use Of tobacco. All pipes, ash
trays, cigars, cigarettes and humidors
were burned or destroyed. The strug-
gle was difficult for some of the fam
lily, but they were strengthened by the
example of the master OF the house.
On June 1, however, Mr.. Soeda was
seen to light cigar while seated In
his library. A cynical friend. who had
grumbled about the lawyers prohibi-
ton Of tobacco, exclaimed:
"Se. you've been smoking on the sly,
despite your resolution
mot at all; this is my first cigar
in five months" was the reply. my
physician thinks he has detected symp-
toms of fatty degeneration of my heart
and has recommended tobacco as an
antidote Therefore, have begun taxi
