Manhattan. March 20.-Cattlemen
attending the annual convention of
the Kansas Livestock Feeders associ-
alton at the state agricultural college
here today heard ample corobora ton
Of their general assertion that fatten-
ing cattle is a losing proposition. An
important feature of the program was
report on the colleges experimental
work in feeding cattle, sheep and hogs.
This report stated:
Even tho fed the most efficient
and practical rations, the steers lost
from $40 to $40 a head. These care
fully conducted tests demonstrate the
fact that the prevalent complaint OF
losses from cattle feeding operations
have been based upon fact"
The silo has come to the rescue of
the livestock feeder in this age of high
priced grains. THE cheapest grains
in feeding cattle for market can be
secured only by the maximum utiliza-
ton OF silage." the report said. land
even then heavy losses will result at
present prices Of cattle, labor and
other feeds necessary to balance the
ration"
Molasscs Cheaper Than Corn.
Come results proven by the expert
ments follow:
AIolasses was found an economical
substitute for corn, it being cheaper
per ton than corn. and may be substi-
tuted up to or pounds a day. AS
a food, 100 pounds of molasses was
equivalent to so pounds of corn.
Feeding baby beef is mere profita-
BE than feeding mature steers, be-
cause the calf requires less for mainte-
nance and grows while he fattens.
But it requires a longer period and
more grain to make the baby beef
weighing 500 to 1000 pounds at II
to 4 months of age than it does to
fatten mature steers.
In Wintering calves. each 100
pounds made on silage and cottonseed
meal cost only $1S.54.
Under similar conditions, pigs fed
on corn and tankage made faster
growth than those fed on barley and
tankage. Dry ground barley was
found superior to soaked ground bar
ley. which in turn gave greater gains
than soaked whole barley. but consid
ering the cost. more economical re-
suits were obtained with barley in
stead of corn
g Several small grains were fed TO
hogs as substitute for corn. Shriveled
wheat is a good hog feed and often
can be fed with bigger returns than
when sold on the market. In four ex-
periments, shrunken wheat in each
case made better results than equal
of corn. Whole wheat and
tankage was found to be the most
profitable way to feed that cereal.

NORMAL AND ELKS
OBSERVE FLAG DAY
PROGRAM MONDAY NIGHT
v. c. Petite of Little Rock to Address
Gathering on Normal Lawn
National Flag Day.

Arrangements weer completed to-
day for a program in observance of
flag day on the Normal lawn Mon
day night under the joint auspices
of the State Normal School and the
Conway lodge of Elks. Virbil c. Pet
tie, vice president of the England Ma
tional Bank and former president of
The Arkansas Bankers Association,
will deliver the Grafton of the occas-
ion The full program CT the exer-
else will be announced later.
As originally planned by the Elks,
Che day would have been observed with
the customary exercise in the lodge
hall. President B. W. Torreyson of
the Normal had planned for the day
TO be observed by the school as Amer
sanitation day, but had not secured
a speaker for the occasion. The joint
program was agreed upon to avoid
conflict and to permit both organiZa-
tions to properly observe the day.
The opportunity for holding the eXer-
else out of doors was especially well
coined by the Elks on account of the
delay in the installation of electric
fans ordered for the lodge room.
The flag day exercise is one Of the
two patriotic occasions which will be
observed at the State Normal this
summer Later, an invitation will be
extended to Maj. Gen. Edward M.
Lewis, commander of the third divis-
ion at Camp Pike, to address the
students and citizens of Conway.
Through the kindness of the adult
ant generals office, the Little Rock
fife and drum corps has also agreed
to come up should General Lewis ac-
eept the invitation. Mr.. Torreyson
and other officers of the Normal
plan to make the day big one, both
at the school and in Conway. Gener-
al Lewis is one of the most famous
Of the American overseas commanders
and wears numerous foreign and
American decorations. He is an able
speaker.
An invitation to American Legion
members and ex-service men to attend
the flag day program at the Nor
NAL is extended by the State Normal
and the Elks The Theodore Campbell
post of the legion had not arranged
any service that day, out of defer
ence to the Elks program. Mr.. Petite
is popular and effective speaker,
and one of the states best known
bankers. Before his connection with
the England bank, he was cashier of
the Bank of Jonesboro, perhaps the
strongest bank in Arkansas outside
Of Little Rock and Fort Smith.

HISS JOHNSON'S NAME
AS G.. o. P. CANDIDATE
(Bv United pressl

Coliseum, Chicago, June ia to-
tai lack of enthusiasm and numerous
evidences of opposition were plain
ly discernible today when Charles
Wheeler placed Senator Hiram John
son of California in nomination. Mr..
Wheeler's first words brought forth
a very modest cheer from the Iowa
and Illinois delegations, and then was
received in silence except when the
uproar of ridicule was so pronounced
that Chairman Lodge was forced to
intervene and restore order.
Mr.. Wheeler's statement, that Sena-
tor johnson has won a great victory
''and without big financial backing
brought forth a chorus of laughter
and Kisses, which continued undated
until Chairman Lodge raped loudly
for order. Finally, the speaker was
able to make his voice carry above the
roar.
The nomination speech for Senator
Johnson was obviously a disappoint-
ment. A wave of restlessness surg
ed back and forth across the hall
while Mr.. Wheeler was speaking and
when he concluded, a mild demon
stration staged by the California dele
cation alone, had damaging effect
upon his candidacy. 1t was so OBJ
viously the California delegation alone
that the reaction was pronounced
At the conclusion Of his speech, the
demonstration for Senator Johnson
lasted % minutes. Representative
Schulz Of Minnesota, blind man
and Judge Richard Dougherty of New
Jersey, made seconding speeches for
the Californian. Mr. Schall was
given warm welcome and was allow
ed two minutes above the customary
five, and Judge Dougherty was al
lowed one minute over time. Speeches
seconding the nomination of Senator
johnson brought forth more cheers
than the first speech by Mr. Wheel
er.
Gov. Calvin Coolidge of Massa-
chusetts was the next candidate plac-
ed in nomination. Speaker Frank H.
Gillett of the house of representa-
tives placed the favorite son of the
Bay State in the running.
Ogden Mills of New York then
placed in nomination Dr. Nicholas
Murray Butler, president of Colum-
bia University, who will receive the
solid vote of the Empire States en-.
tire delegation on the first ballot.

south of the mill when the rain fell.
Knowing they could not get home, DR.
Watson rode over horseback after
them. Returning to cross the stream
where it was almost swimming, he had
one boy to stand in the stirrup on
either side of his horse. In the middle
of the stream the current was so
swift it washed his horses feet from
under it, all going into the water to-
gether and narrowly escaping with
their lives.

days to give farmers a chance to
