FARMER FEED EXPERTS.
National Crop improvement Service

A~>"'AoAAoA
A farmer who has devoted his life
time to the study of feeding generally
has more success through his common
sense methods than any scientific
analysis can supply. If such a feeder
could have on hand all of the in
gradients (most by-products of cereal
manufacture), WHICH according to the
market at the time would be more
economical, he could, through his ex-
perience, be very successful in mix
ing his feeds. But the difficulty with
the average man is to maintain an
economical ration from the products
of his own farm
He may be an expert, if he chooses
to study out a new ration every time
the market changes, but he generally
prefers to let someone who makes a
business of mixing feeds do it for him
No doubt the majority of users OF
mixed feeds begin to buy it because
of a shortage of forage and grain
crops on the farm.
If such man will keep books he
will find that as a usual thing the
use of mixed stock feed is mere mat
ter Of arithmetic whether he could
buy the ingredients cheaper than he
could buy them in a so-called bal
anced" ration.

SUCCESSFUL FEEDING.

National Crop Improvement Service]
It is most signifca mt and probably
the best argument for mixed feeds
when it is considered that a large
number of the most prominent and
skilled men in America have dis
carded their own mixed feeds and
rations because they have found a
satisfactory brand Of feed which will
make as much milk at less cost and
no trouble and, above all, keeps COWS
in perfect health
Many agricultural schools and ex-
pertinent stations use and have used
them for the same reason.
You can verify this by writing to
any experiment station and they will
give you the names of mixed brands
which are best adapted to your pur-
pose.

MUST TASTE GOOD.

National Crop Improvement Servicel
A dairy ration must. of all things,
be palatable so that a cow will eat it.
1t must be bulky and coarse so as to
avoid indigestion and sickness. 1t
must contain a variety of foods SO
that the cow will not tire of it or get
off her feed. 1t must contain enough
real protein-all protein is not alike
1t must contain the right, amounts
and kinds OF mineral substances nee
essary to life, health and milk secre-
ton. 1t must be highly digestible
Many feeds are only about fifty to
sixty per cent digestibie and the work
of excreting so much waste matter is
costly in that it uses up the energy OF
the food to Go it,

c. H. Packard, of Delavan, Wiscon-
sin, progressive and practical dairy
man, was not satisfied with his ration
of homegrown feed. Although he
mixed his ration with brains and it
seemed to be theoretically correct, he
thought he would try out his own
mixture in comparison with first
class dairy feed. Much to his surprise
he found that he could save about
five lbs. of grain per cow per day and
nearly 5 cents per COW. He figured
his own grain at prices much below
the wholesale market and bought his
mixed feed at retail
Also when his ration was figured &C.
cording to Armsby or Energy method
his mixed feed proved to be the right
combination to make a balanced ration
with his own farm roughage.

EXPENSIVE PASTURE

National Crop Improvement Service !
When you stop to consider that an

pensive way to feed your stock

It is a fair assumption that any
farmer who talks against mixed feeds
does not know what a mixed feed
ought to be. There is no danger of
any man buying fraudulent feed. The
state laws are very stringent on this
point and if any man has any doubt
as to the value of feed, all he has
to do is to write his State Experiment
Station and get the truth.

By a device of male economists,
mainly hotel and restaurant mana
gers, uneaten crusts of bread, ac-
cumulated to the proportions of a
butter-tub full, are to be soaked up
in water, inflated with yeast and re-
reincarnated as "war-bread."
The war bread sounds neither ap-
petizing nor wholesome. 1t presents
nauseating picture to the mind
and it suggests uncleanly possibili-
ties. The gentlemen who invented
this utilization of the cutoff crusts
of toast, it is said, are terribly
pleased with it. They are generously
offering the idea to housewives. But
it is not likely to take we'll, and that
for three good reasons. Reason num-
Der one is that every housekeeper
would begin in war time by not cut
ting off her bread crusts for toast
and sandwiches. Reason number two
is that she already knows thirty-siX
ways to utilize bread crusts, any one
of which is more attractive than this
war bread. And reason number three
is that if she were so foolish as to
let butter-tub full of crIlsts &C.
cumulate to moldy mass, might her
right hand forget it's cunning and her
bread-box be carried off by the rats.

MEXICO CITY HAS 1O2 BASE BALL
TEAMS,

That amateur sport is flourishing
in the Mexican capital is shown by
the fact that there are 102 organized
amateur baseball mines in the city
and it's suburbs and over fifty SOccre
football teams. The season for all va
riety of sport in Mexico lasts twelve
months a year, as the climate permits
play at all times. Even during the
rainy season the mornings are almost
always clear and sunshiny and the
nature of the soil and the high dry
atmosphere makes delay on account
of wet grounds almost unknown.
No regular league series are played
by the baseball clubs, but short
series between three or more selected
teams are arranged from month to
month. The games usually are play
ed Sunday morning or on feast days
and holidays and as a general thing
no admission is charged.
Many of the larger athletic clubs
and colleges and professional schools
have three or four teams each, the
first teams drafting players from the
lesser teams as they are developed.

The book Tor the Kentucky Asso-
Citations autumn meeting OF ten
days, beginning Wednesday, Septem-
Der IL, and ending Saturday, Septem-
Der %, was issued Saturday and 1t is
bristling with assurance of thrilling
contests over the historic race course.
The program was written by Judge
William H. Shelley, master in the
art of building conditions that at
tract good fields and produce keen
est competition, and it is as good as
the best of the splendid work he has
done during his long and honorable
connection with the local association
in the capacity of racing secretary.
During the ten days there will be
seventy races-seven for each day
and the only stake event will be the
Breeders Futurity, for two-year-
Odds at about three-quarters of a
mile. This race, with ten starters,
will be worth $11,195. 1t is likely
that it will have more than ten start
ers.
Each starter will pay $3.50. This
race is to be decided on the closing
day of the meeting.
The other sixty-nine races will av.
erage $500 each added money, max
ing a total, including the Breeders
Futurity, of approximately $4,000
to be distributed to horsemen during
the ten days. There are to be eleven
overnight handicaps, one of which
will be for two-year-olds at five and
one-half furlongs. The other ten
will be for three-year-olds and up
ward.

My, amt this war awful? And us
ladies must suffer. so!
1t was announced at the Fashion
Art League in Chicago, Tuesday, that
in addition to gowns with only one
sleeve, women this fall and winter
would wear half hose. What, with
shorter, narrower skirts, half portion
coats and now the short socks, mi.
lady's knees will be cold this winter.
The adoption of half hose can be
traced back to the enthusiastic wei
come given the Canadian Kilties in
their recent tour of American cities.
Their bare knees and gorgeous half
hose made decided hit.
Fashion leaders, however, deny this
is the reason. They say silk must
be conserved, hence half hose. The
dictators did not attempt to square
their conservation plan with advice
from the Federal Government urg-
ing the free use of silk in order TO
conserve the wool supply.
Another development of the day
was the announcement that ladies' B.
v. DIS would be shy the customary
lace and ribbons, but the designers
hasten to say they will be more at
tractive for the reason they will be
made of bright colors.

Government supervision of meat
packing and distribution concerns,
with the institution of a licensing

move of the food administration
after it has completed plans for the

the registration began, and clerical
force of twenty-five is now busy with
certiications and other work.
The men drafted will all be ordered
to report to the district boards, and
will be sent from them direct to the
cantonment site, General Ellis says.
The Adjutant General believes that
there will be no delay in getting the
first number of men in camp by the
specified date.
