KEEP UP THE MILK SUPPLY
6y-Produets viii Save Our Good
Cows Until Another Crop Of Grain
and Grass Is Grown,

Almost without exception the most
successful dairymen use the very
highest grade Of concentrates obtain
able. However, for obvious reasons,
nearly every university very prop
erly advocates the feeding Of home
grown feeds, usually overlooking the
fact that the farmer who mixes his
own feed is taxed at least So a ton
for his own labor, and also that the
ingredients generally recommended
are almost impossible to get at fair
price in small quantities, If at all.
There has not been a time in the
past ten years when a pound Of milk
would not buy a pound of a well bal
anced feed. Smaller quantities of
grain and concentrates are required
when a man has homegrown corn,
silage or legume hay. Almost every
farmer can grow these feeds but the
sad part Of it is that generally when
he needs them the most his crop has
failed. The dairyman near the large
cities often has insufficient land, la
Dor and equipment.
One Pound Grain Makes 8 to q Pounds
MIX.
Some Of the university dairy de-
partments advocate ~ that where
man has his own lAgumes and rough
age he can afford to feed cottonseed
meal up to 231k pounds daily which
would be sufficient for COW giving
27z to 8 gallons Of milk daily; (2)
corn and cob meal or corn chop 300
to 400 pounds, wheat bran or ground
oats 100 pounds, cottonseed meal 100
pounds. This grain mixture should be
fed to the heavier producing COWS in
the proportion Of one pound of the mix
ture to to 31a pounds Of Jersey or
Guernsey milk and to 81 to pounds
Of Holstein milk. II you do not have
a legume hay, and can purchase all
falfa at $50 per ton or less or clover
at 1925 per ton or less, they will prove
a good buy.
The trouble with an Of this advice
Is that the farmer is not always able
to buy these ingredients. Under the
food administration wheat feeds
which have arbitrarily been placed at
lower level than other feeds are
practically unobtainable because of
Overbuying and oversubstitution by
he consumer and also a large diver

SUPREME COURT vs.
SESSIONS OPEN

The Rev. P. J. Mckinney, pastor Of
st. Charles church, offered the prayer
today at the opening of the April ses-
sion of the Supreme Court of Errors
in this city New Haven cases are
listed first upon the docket, 27 in all,
of which a number were continued
when the docket was called. There
are II Fairfield county cases, but sew
elNl were continued until a later
term.
The first case to come up for argu-
ment was q Waterbury case, Eliza
beth McEuoy against the Postal Tele-
graph Co., in which the City of Wa
terbury is a defendant and appeals
from a decision of the Superior Court.
1t is expected the session here will
last into next week.

Feed stuffs Scarce.
Practically one-third Of the cotton
seed crop has been diverted to beef
animals and the fact that cottonseed
meal was fixed on basis Of so much
per unit Of protein, corresponding to
its fertilizing value instead Of at a
higher basis, where it normally would
have gone, has caused this valuable
dairy feed to be made into fertilizer
and very little is now available for
feed. The same is true Of linseed
meal, peanut products, etc.
So far this season the production
Of Hnseed meal and oil cake has been
about one-third Of our maximum. It
is practically out Of the market. Al
cohol and brewers grains, malt
sprouts, ETC., are at prohibitive prices.
"Where neither silage nor 1egumi-
nous hay Of any kind is available the
dairyman can hardly hope to feed his
cows at profit in the winter" says
Prof. A. @. Ragsdale, Dairy Extension,
University Of Missouri, "but he may ex-
pect to carry good cows through with
out loss until he can prepare to get
these feeds for another year."
Feed By-Produets.
There is no argument, however,
necessary to show that live stock, es-
pecially dairy cattle, should be fed
upon the by-products Of grain after
+bo b5roor 4oo6 hos hno,o JornoIv nit
llzed.
The overwhelming demand for
wheat -four substitutes has put price
upon corn, oats, barley and rye, way
beyond their former value at any time
in history.
Therefore, laying all theory aside,
by-products must save our COWS.
Common sense demonstrates that
whenever feeds and milk are high In
price farmers can afford to feed heav-
Ter than when the same conditions are
low, because he gets three or four
pounds Of milk for one pound Of con-
centrated feed. So the price Of COM
mercial feeds Is but one small factor,
and they save the most important
item-the farmers labor.
Dairy feeds are all analysed by
the state agricultural college, and any
dairyman can have full information
about every feed for sale in his state.
There was never poorer time to
keep the average COW. Milk produc-
ton must be maintained, but no one
will care to maintain it as a losing
proposition. The cow that pays Is the
cow to keep.

STOCK MARKET

New York, April 9-Opening: The
broadening of the German drive on
the western front provoked moderate
selling in the first half hour of today's
stock market. High grade railroads
alsa fndustrials yielded only fraction
&lsy, but specialties offered less resist
ance to pressure. Oils were particu-
larly heavy, Texas Co. losing 8 points
and Mexican Petroleum a point.
Studebaker led the further recessions
in automobile issues, declining about
! n points with General Motors.
MONA gradual ebbing of prices
occurred later, shtppings, tobaccos
and the usual variety of specialties
following the course set by the motor
group. TranscontinentaI railroads and
st. Paul preferred also eased from
to II points. United States Steel for
feited the greater part of a point, but
allied industrials and coppers were
more steady. Heaviness extended to
the bond list, foreign bond quotations
shading with domestic issues. Liberty

Where The People
 May Have a Hearing

To the cotton growers of the salt River Valley:
 You are living in a wonderful coun- try The climatic conditions. the fer tile soil and the water that can be had whenever needed. make it an ideal place to grow cotton.
 The little fall in price of this staple should not discourage you in the least. Of course it is the history of cotton to Vacillate, but even with the present prices you may make money. If yoar cotton has made two-fifths to one half bale per acre this year you should make the same land produce four -fifths to one bale per acre this year. Your cotton wants to make seed and fiber just as you want it to. so you help it to double the number of bolls and to make them double their former weight. It is easily done. If you will plant good seed on q Well prepared seed bed and give good tillage and water when needed you will produce good stalks and large bOlis. all that the stalk will support You had just as well ask it to make two in fiber as one and three fourt1s, and it can make fiber that will support 15 miles of it's own length as easily as five miles, and well matured seed for anoth- CT year as well as immatured seed that is very low in vitality and hardly able to produce a good plant. It is much bet ter to prcdEcc bolls that run 12O to the pound than those that run 24O to q pound
 Of course all these points go hand in hand and if you guess at the manage ment of your cotton you take some chance of getting the bad ones. In fact gusssWork doesn't generally catch the So<l -?ints and make the best crops. You understand that one inch of water at the right time is worth two inches at an inopportune time. Therefore 1t will pay to watch tho plant needs care fully, and by irrigatinS at the right time save much water.
 You had just as well settle down to business, for you can make money even at the present prices if you are on 0 your job. If you are not, get someone to help you that understands the busi- ness. We need more men of sciehce in order to make more and better crops.

GERMAN SAILORS
 CLASH WITH GUARDS

BERLIN. Dec. 23.--(Monday NighD The German foreign office and the chancellory adjoining it, which is at present the seat of the government. were blocl.aded for an hour and half this afternoon by squad of sailors who had been on guard duty there for the past month.
 The navy men who were about to be replaced by republican soldier guard and sent back to KieL objected to the new ruling. As a protest against the action of the military commander, small squads of sailors attempted dem onstrations in the various parts of the downtown district.
 At a given hour in the Inter Den Linden, the sailors clashed with mem bers of the new republican guard. Shots were exchanged and it is reported there were number of casualties
 A bullet entered the class room in the University of Berlin. of Prof. Winer Sombart. a well known economist, but no damage was done.
 The presence of the, sailors in Berlin has been source of dissatisfaction among the troops returning from the front, and friction frequently has been apparent. Suspicion also is general that the bluejackets have leanings toward the spartacus group.
