The man had taken a step or two
across the glass roof before he no.
ticed the presence of the strangers,
but then he stopped abruptly. There
was no expression Of either fear or
surprise upon his tranquil face, yet
he must have beet poth astonished
and afraid; for after his eyes had
rested upon the ungainly form of
the horse for a moment he walked
rapidly to the furthest edge of the
roof, his head turned back over his
shoulder to gaze at the strange ami

noticed that the beautiful man did
not look where he was going; "be

DAIRY
BEST GRAIN FOR DAIRY COWS
Corn Is We'll Adapted to Be Part of Ration-Ground Oats, Barley and
 Rye Are Good.

tPrepared by the United States Depart
 ment of Agriculture)
 Many of the more common grains that are grown upon the farm are suitable for use in the dairy ration. Corn is probably the most common grain grown upon the farm and is well adapted to be part of the ration of dairy COW. Corn is palatable, heavy, and one of the best and cheapest sources of the energy or heat-making part of the ration; but, on account of its low protein content. it should not form the entire grain ration In order to tighten up this grain the cob is often ground with the kernel, the re- sulting meal being called corn-and-cob meal. This feed is more bulky and better adapted for mixing with heavy grains. The corn crop products ana lyze as follows:
 Digestible nutrients-Corn neal Protein, 6.9 per cent; carbohydrates and fat, 76.9 per cent. Corn-and-cob meal: Protein, 6.1 per cent; carbohy- drates and fat, 72 per cent.
 Ground oats are slightly laxative and very well adapted for feeding dairy cattle. Owing to the high mar ket price of oats, it is usually more economical to sell them and purchase other feeds which furnish nutrients at a cheaper price. Digestible nutrients of oats: Protein, 9.4 per cent; carbo- hydrates and fat, 60.6 per cent.
 Ground barley is a palatable feed, and one that can be used to good ad- vantage as source of carbohydrates or energy material for dairy cows where its price is moderate. Like corn, it should not be the only grain in the

FIND TUBERCULOSIS IN COW
Some Animals, Apparently Healthy, May Be Affected With Ailment-
 Gall in Veterinarian.

It is difficult for anyone to detect tuberculosis in COW by her appear ance. Some cows. apparently healthy, may be affected with this disease. An ordinary layman can detect tuberculo- sis in a COW about as well as can a professional man.
 If COW is in an advanced stage of tuberculosis she will usually cough, be poor in flesh, have dull expres- sion in her eyes and appear sluggish. The milk from such COW should not be used for either animals or human beings.
 The safest method is to have herd tested for tuberculosis by capable veterinarian. This test may be admin istered by the owner or by any other careful person, but it can readily be seen that the results of such a test would not be official.

 Ground rye is not especially pala- table and should not be used in large quantities, as it tends to produce as hard, tallowy butter. Mixed with oth- CT feeds, it is often valuable addi- tion to the ration. It contains 9.2 per cent protein; 70.4 per cent carbohy- drates and fat.

WARM DRINKING WATER BEST
Practice Will Save Feed and Help Milk Flow-Cow Will Drink
 More Abundantly.

Warm drinking water for the dairy stock will save feed and also benefit the milk flow. II saves feed because it does not draw on the vitality of the COW as does cold water. It bene- fits the milk flow because a COW will not reach her maximum production unless she drinks water abundantly. This she will not do if it is ice cold.

HIGHEST LEVEL EVER QUOTED

New Orleans, Oct. 21-Contract prices
were put to the highest levels ever
quoted in the New Orleans cotton mar
ket today. when October went to sc
cents a pound, following an early ses-
sion of excited buying. for which dam
aging rains in oklahoma and Texas
were responsible. The upturn in val

Following private reports of flooded
owlands in some cotton counties of
Texas there was a further bulge
which carried October to SO cents, the
highest contract price ever reached in
this market. At this level, the active
months were 73 to 80 points up for
the day
The ring was active and excited. a
large business was done from the open

traders in all parts of the South were
taking part in the buying movement.
October was the strongest month and
rose $3.50 bale
The previous high record was made
on July 23 of this year, when March
