MOVES
LIKE A BIG

menagerie, acrobats and clowns. but
house hundreds of cots, wounded SOL
diers and Red Cross nurses.
All that reminds one Of the circus
days of old are the methods and or
ganization Of the people connected
with this tent city. For they. like the
circus people at home. are here today
and gone tomorrow. And every vestige
of their equipment is gone with them.
On an hours notice they strike their
tents, and within twenty-four hours
they are putting them up again-prob-
ably twenty miles away.
Carry Complete Equipment.
Their equipment and methods are
interesting. They carry every sort Of
sanitary. surgical and electrical phara-
phernalia to be found In the most mod
ern of hospitals. They have X-ray
outfits, sterilizing outfits. radiators
with steam heat, several operating tn
bles with full equipment. electric light
plant and accommodations for the
care Of more than two hundred and
fifty wounded-and all with a person
mel OF less than one hundred men and
women.
But where they have the advantage
over the modern circuses Is that they
supply their own transportation. Three
huge motortrucks are the keystone Of
the outfit. One is used as a sterilizing
machine and electric light plant. An
other carries an emergency light plant
and central system for supplying steam
heat in the operating tents. The third
serves as laundry and surgical In
struments carriage.
The tents, cots. bedclothing and 9th
er equipment are slowed In three or
four trucks which are requisitioned
from the transportation department Of
the army.
Like a regular circus, this mobile
hospital organization back Of the lines
in France operates when he order
comes to move. The patients dry rae
uated first by ambulance. Then liza
tents are struck and packed. Each
member of the hospital staff has a spe-
Gifted duty to perform.
The personnel, nurses, army sur
geons and orderlies are the last to
leave the ground, riding In ambulances
and trucks. When they mount to
their places the grounds are cleared of
everything. just like the abandoned
circus grounds in America.
The commanding officer. with his
staff, jumps into touring car and
moves to the head Of the column which
has formed in road near by. The or.

prepared by the United States Depart'

In cattle feeding contests conducted
by the bureau of animal industry OF
the department Of agriculture and the
Alabama experiment station, covering
a period of five years, the fattening OF
grade calves for market proved profit
able in every test made.
Cottonseed meal, cottonseed hulls
and alfalfa hay proved to be an excel,
lent ration and a profitable one for
fattening calves. Cottonseed meal and

and Feed Them Accordingly.
cottonseed hulls proved to be good
fattening ration for calves for a short
feeding period.
When fed In conjunction with cot
tonseed meal, corn silage of rather
poor quality produced the same daily
gains on calves as did cottonseed hulls
and cheapened the cost Of the daily
gains.
The substitution OF two-thirds of the
cottonseed meal In ration with corn
did not prove profitable when corn cost
10 cents bushel and cottonseed meal
S26 a ton.
In one test Il was profitable to re-
place one-third of the cottonseed meal
with corn-nnd-cob meal, but In a sec
ond test nothing was gained by the In
PRODUCTION Of corn-and-cob meal. The
first year the calves which received
corn-and-cob meal made slightly larger
daily gains and sold for more than did
the calves which received cottonseed
meal as the sole concentrate. The Sec
ond year the addition Of corn to the
ration did not increase the size of the
daily gains. nor did the calves which
received corn sell for any more per
pound than the other calves.
In n third test 81 high-grade Aber-
deen-Angus calves fed on a ration of
about three pounds Of cottonseed meal.
two pounds Of cowpea hay and ms much
cottonseed bulls as they would eat
made daily gains at n cost of $3.50 per
hundred pounds and returned net
profit of $3.50 each.
In fourth experiment 81 calves
which were fed for 112 days in the dry
lot and then fed 50 days on pasture
made good daily gains, but the profits
were not as large as they would have
been If the calves had been sold at the
cod of the winter. The gains made
during the summer were good and
were made cheaply. but the price of
calves was so much lower In the sum-
mer than at the close of winter that
the continued feeding into the summer
months was not profitable.
