entertainers IN HARD LUCK
But to Put Il Mildly, They Were Un-
fortunate In Their Selection Of
"Enlivenino" Song.

While writing q book at Northamp-
ton, Mass, and a neighbor Of Profess
sor Whitney, Raphael Pumpelly tells
In his "reminiscences, Miss Alice Whit
ney told him the following at once
humorous and pathetic story:
'"rhey had as guests staying with
them missionary and his wife from
the south seas. The woman was
tall and Of stern aspect; the man. her
second husband. was a small and
timid creature. One evening, In an
attempt to introduce little liveliness
into the solemnity, Mrs. Whitney
asked her sons, just home from col
lege. and her daughter to sing some
college songs. So gathering around
the piano, with their backs to the au-
dience, the young people began The
King o! the Cannibal Islands As
the song progressed the missionary
lady grew more and more erect and
severe, and when II came to the serv-
ing up Of roast missionary she rose
In anger, and with her black silk skirts
rustling she walked solemnly out Of
the room, followed timidly by her
shrinking little husband.
"Then Mrs. Whitney burst out with:
oh, children, children, what have you
done? Her first husband was eaten
by cannibals""

HORSE HAD A Temperament

further ceremony he lay down across
the tracks OF one Of the trolley lines.
a crowd soon collected, followed by
the usual excitement with a stOrInlng
mOtOrman and call for the police. A
thing about horses, said the animal
was overcome by hard work, and she
gave Instructions to the driver as to
what he should do. After few min
utcs had passed a veterinary stepped
out OF the crowd and took look at
the horse. The veterinary turned to
the cop and the others and said:
There Is nothing the matter with
this horse. He Is tired and he just
made up his mind to take rest. You
know when horse gets tired, he is
not particular az TO where he stretches
his bones. My word for 1t, he will be
all right In few minutes and be on
his way"
The woman did not agree with him
and insisted that something be done to
alleviate the animals suffering. She
and the veterinary got into heated
argument, when the horse without fur
thcr ado decided that the street was
not the best place In the world to
stretch his bones on, so he got up on
all fours and shook himself The
driver hitched him to the wagon and

Ihis is the season of the year when
farmers are sending their hay to the
city markets.
IN the face of a marvellous increase
in motorpropelled vehicles which eat
only gasoline, it is worthy of note that
the production and consumption Of hay
IN the United States has increased
steadily year by year, reaching its
highest point In history in 1919 This
years yield will be only slightly less,
AT the same time, the marketing Of
hay has become a more particular I'M
dertaking. Formerly nearly all hay
was sold within 80 miles of the place
where it was grown. Now a large part
Of It is shipped by rail and some ex-
ported
Two Kinds Of Markets.
Market hay may be divided into two
general classes; City market hay and
local, or country market hay. The line
Of distinction between the two classes
is not always distinctly drawn, but it
may be said that the demand in re-
gard to quality and better grades is
more rigid in the city than on the local
market, 1t requires a better quality
of hay to grade as No. / on the city
market than on the local market.
Compared with marketing hay in the
city, disposng Of it in the country is
a comparatively simple matter. On
the local market the producer usually
comes in direct contact with the CON
sumer and hay is not sold according to
its official grade but on its merit. 1t
is designated as Choice" good bright
hay" fair" medium" etc. This in
cludes all kinds of hay, and hence
there is no necessity for the producer
to know the commercial grades.
When hay is shipped to the city
market, however, the grade given by
the shipper is of the utmost impor-
lance. The prices Of the different
grades of hay depend In years of
normal yield, on the demand of city
consumers, who may be divided into
three general classes according to the
kind of hay they feed. In the first
class are the drivers of fancy driving
and saddle horses, who feed the high
est quality hay Such horses must be
kept in the best condition, and as No.
l hay Is very palatable and agrees
with the horses, it is used to furnish
the required bulk of the ration rather
than the quality of nutritive sub
stances it contains. High-grade hay
always finds a ready sale, for the de-
mand usually exceeds the supply.
The second class Of consumers avoid

FLOWING FOR BEST RESULTS
Little Subsoil Turned to Surface Occa.
sionaly Permits Elements to
Act Freely.

1t has been abundantly proved that
It is not good to pillow a field the same
depth from year to year BY blowing
shallow or at uniform depth, the soil
cannot become mixed well and hard
bed IS formed at the bottom Of the
furrow, which neither air, water nor
the roots Of plants Will penetrate
readily. A little subsoil turned to the
surface occasionally allows the ele-
ments to act upon 1t freely, thus liber-
ating food as it mingles with the sur
face soil and vegetable matter. In
this way more valuable plant food and
greater depth of soil is furnished the
plants which grow upon It.
Macon beacon. [volume] (Macon, Miss.) 1859-1995, 1920-12-17

extremes in both price and grade and
feed the medium grades Of hay. In
the eastern part of the United States
No, and No. 2 timothy are fed in
preference to the other grades and are
cheaper. Consumers of this kind are
beginning to use mixed (timothy and
clover hay) and legume hay, especially
alfalfa, in preference to unmixed grass
hay.
The third class feed the lower
grades, such as No. 3 timothy and
mo grade" This hay is fed by many
horse owners because it is cheap, and
by owners of transient and sale stables
who want something to fill up the
horses and are not greatly concerned
with the nutritiye quality Of the feed.
Experienced horse owners know that
when poor hay Is fed it requires a
larger grain ration than where better
grade hay is used, The quantity Of
poor hay in the market is much great
er than that Of good hay.
nay onOuIu be wen baIeu,
Most hay for city market nowadays
is baled, and each year there is con
siderable loss in marketing hay on ac-
count Of improper baling. The rules
by which market hay is graded require
that it be Sound and well baled'
Properly baled hay consists of bales
of uniform size, having straight edges,
square ends the proper number Of
wires accurately placed and baled in
such manner as to stand handling
and shipping well. Each bale should
contain only one grade of hay, com
posed of enough folds to be torn apart
easily when the wires are removed.
The size and weight of the bales are
important In most markets. The pro
Queer should know the demands of the
market to which his hay is to be
shipped. Usually a man snIps his
hay into one general market where the
size and weight Of bale Is uniform.
The small bale, up to 100 pounds, is
much in demand because one man can
load, unload, and deliver it. This size
Is popular for handling where ship
ments are by river boat In the South.
For southern retail trade a bale not
more than 10 pounds-approximately
80 to the TOMS popular. In several
eastern markets the large upright bale
weighing from POO to 225 pounds is
preferred.
The producer should select his best
hay for the city markets, grade It
carefully, bale it according 10 the
market, and avoid shipping more than
one class of hay IN the same car.
