AFTER SLEEP OF CENTURIES
EccIesiastic May Be Said to Have Re-

Brief Moments.

There was little gathering In the
green graveyard of an old pricry
church. There was the rector and an
old antiquary in rusty black. a few
neighboring squires, the county police
sergeant, the sexton and a laborer or
two, while an ancient stone coffin, re-
Gently unearthed, lay on the ground.
"Who do you suppose 1t is, profes'
sor?" inquired the rector.
The old man in black polished his
glasses and adjusted them carefully.
1T must be Thomas DeBOehm's." he
said. Thomas who was prior here In
the time of Henry III, about 1920. But
we shall see."
A hush fell on the group as the men
set to work with hammer and chisel.
"All ready" the sexton reported
presently. They took off their hats and
the policeman removed his helmet. The
ponderous lid was slowly pushed aside
and they were gazing at the calm.

TO DOUBLE VALUE OF STOCK

STEER-FEEDiNG EXPERIMENT
cottonseed Meal and Velvet Beans
Used With and Without Addi-
ton of SheIIed Corn.

In a steer-feeding experiment con.
Quoted last year on the government
farm at Beltsvil1e, Nd, four lots of
two-year-old steers were fed. The pur-
pose was to compare cottonseed meal
and soaked velvet beans when used
with and without the addition OF
shelled corn.
The addition Of corn to ration
composed of corn silage, cottonseed
meal and wheat straw did not pay.
The addition of corn to the ration of
velvet beans and corn silage was
profitable.
The lot receiving corn silage and
soaked velvet beans with small guam
tity of cottonseed meal as an appe-
tier produced the most economical
gains and showed the greatest profit,
even though the daily gains and the
selling price of the cattle were lower
than those of any Of the other lots.

The higher the breed of cattle, the
better is the beef.
There is no danger Of a good grade
of tankage spreading hog cholera.
A good bull is just as good as a
stag as far as market value is con-

Horses are as poor as their feet.
Always examine this section of their
anatomy when a trade is In prospect.

of scrub, grade and inferior purebred

The farmer buys more beef than he

per cent of meat furnished by the av-

West the average consumption of beef

in the South it is less than 100 pounds.

GROUND RYE BEST FOR PIGS
1t Is Better Mixed in Equal Parts
With MiddIings, Ground Oats,

It is generally recommended that
rye be ground for feeding to pigs. 1t
is best mixed in equal amounts with
middlings, ground oats, ground bar
ley or corn. If the mixture is placed
in the self-feeder, care must be taken
to see that there is good supply OF
water available for the pigs. They
