Ration No. 1.

The first ration was made up as
were all subsequent ones to care for
the needs of an 1100-pound cow pro-
ducing 35 pounds of 3.5 per cent milk.
The roughage used was
35 pounds silage
II pounds timothy hay
The grain mixture necessary to go
with this roughage was:
1 pound ground oats
2 pounds Cottonseed
2 pounds bran
1 pound corn meal
2 pounds gluten
2 pounds oil meal.
The cost of this grain ration at re-
tail prices was $76.20 per ton.
Ration No. 2.
The same amount of silage was fed
but Il pounds of clover hay was sub
stituted for II pounds of timothy hay.
The following grain mixture would
be required:
2 pounds wheat bran
l pound ground oats
pounds corn meal
2 pounds gluten feed
2 pounds oil meal
Cost per ton $73.21.
Ration No. 3.
Most farmers are raising consider
able grain. Many make no attempt
to sow grain producing the largest
amount of feed value per acre. If
the following seed mixture was used,
a considerable saving could be made
in the grain ration: z pecks oats,
peck barley, 1 peck peas per acre.
The threshed grain would be di-
vlded approximately as follows:
parts barley, 2 parts oats and / part
peas. If clover hay was fed the fol
lowing grain ration would be suf6-
cient.
~ pounds ground oats
2 pounds bran
50 pounds barley
II pound peas
2 pounds gluten feed
pound oil meal
Cost of this mixture S71.00. Those
items starred 81 are home grown
Instead of ten pounds of purchased
feed as in ration No. 1, we have only
six pounds actually purchased in this
ration. 1t would seem a pretty
worthwhile proposition to consider
the raising of more legumes and high
quality grain. Farmers can afford
to mix their own rations. Buying
ready-nliXed rations means paying
anywhere from dollar and a half tx
several dollars more per ton for the
same quality ration.
The last point brought out by Prof
Savage was the matter of credit.
large number of the farmers of thi.
country are letting the grain dealer
finance them. They buy on credi
with corresponding high price. TIL,
bank is the place to buy money. If {
mans cred is good with the grain
dealer for $500, It is also good at tn,
bank. Banks are in the business tt
lend money and grain dealers are il
the business to sell feed for cash
Farmers make them run a credi
business. Paying cash and taking
feed at the car door when it arrive.
will go far toward reducing the pric
es farmers must pay for grain.

DRY CONVENTION
HERE AUGUST 80
Presidential Nominee Will Ad-
dress Mass Meeting. II

Plans are being rapidly completed for
the prohibition state convention, which
meets in the Y. NJ. c. A. auditorium
Monday, Aug. 80, at 2 80 p. m.
Invitations are being mailed from state
headquarters this week telling prohibit
ton workers that it will be a mass con-
vention and urging their attendance.
Acting Chairman J. Raymond Schmidt
has just returned from a swing around
the state and reports a very favorable
outlook for the party.
Chairman Schmidt represented Indiana
at the notification of the prohibition ma
tionaI candidates at Germantown, o.,
last week, and while there secured an
appointment with the presidential nomi-
nee, DR.. Aaron S. Watkins, to address
the convention mass meeting.
DIR. Watkins will be accompanied by
National Chairman Virgil G. Hinshaw,
who will also appear on the program.
Efforts were made to secure DR.. D.
Leigh Colvin of New York. the vice presi-
Dental nominee, for an address, but
failed because DR.. Colvin will be cam
paigning by airplane in the west by that
time
No candidates for congress will be
nominated, according to Mr. Schmidt, but
the strength Of the prohibitionists will
be thrown to the support of major party
candidates who are openly opposed to
any revision Of the Volstead act in favor
of light wines and beer.
This action is based upon the stand
taken by the state central committee and
the state convention two years ago.
Chairman Schmidt claims there are sew
eral district needing careful watching
because OF the camoufage methods Of

SEPT. 4OR OCT. 4
SET FOR VOTERS
REGISTRATIONS
Both Political Parties Empha-
size Importance of Two
Dates.
RULES ARE EXPLAINED

Every voter must register Sept. 4 or
Oct. 4, registration days, in order to cast
a ballot at the election Nov. 2.
This is the word sent out today by
state committees of both the leading po-
litical parties in Indiana.
Voters this year will have two chances
and three ways in which to register and
any voter who fails to avail himself Of
the opportunity to register will be out
of luck on election day.
Registration places will be open from
s a. m. to 0 Z. m on Saturday, Sept.
and Monday, Oct. 4.
A sufficient number of clerks will be
on duty at each place to handle any
number of voters that may call to reg
lister.
Voters must register in the precinct
in which they vote.
Three ways are provided this year for
registration.
They are, registration In person, at
the registration place; registration by
affidavit, sworn to before a notary pub
lie; by filing out registration blank,
and having it signed by two voters in
the precinct in which he resides.
WOMEN TOO
MUST REGISTER.
All women who intend to vote must
register as we'll as men voters.
To be a qualified voter, in addition TO
registration, one must be 81 years old,
be a citizen of the United States. and
must have resided in the state six
months, the township Tor ward sixty
days and the precinct thirty days.
After a voter has registered on Sep
TENDER 4, he should not move out of his
township, or he viii lose his vote, &C
cording to legal advice to the state com
mittees.
A registered voter may, however, move
from one precinct to another within the
township at any time previously TO 80
days preceding the election.
Any person who moves out of his pre-
cinct within thirty days of the election.
will not be entitled to vote, no matter
where he may have registered.
The entry of women into politics has
brought up several important questions
regarding their registration and eligibil-
ity to vote.
WHEN SHE'S BOUND
TO STAY PUT.
Should a woman marry after Oct. 4,
after she registered as miss, It would
be necessary for her TO remain In that
precinct in order to retain her vote.
1t would, however, be possible for her
to make affidavit that she retains that
precinct as her legal residence until after
election day, and in that case she would
be permitted TO vote.
Again, II a woman marries after she
| has registered under her maiden name,
when she enters the voting place on cleo

AUDITORIUM PLAN
 OUTLINED BY BUSH
Allied Armies to Assist the Committee In Raising
 Funds for Building

At the meeting of the directors of the Chamber of Commerce yesterday after noon Morris Bush, chairman of the audi torium committee, gave an outline of the campaign plans for raising s250,0o0 as a building fund.
 The campaign will be made between March 1 and 10, and Mir. Bush commit tee will be assisted in the drive by the allied armies which rendered such va liant service in all the war campaigns of 1917, 1918 and 1919.
 The city will issue $50o,000 worth of bonds, the proceeds of which will be useG in building the auditorium. The plans for the building call for an esti- mated expenditure of approximately $780, deg, and it is for the purpose of raising the additional $250,0O0 that the special committee was organized about year ago.
 The question of disposng of the city bonds came up at the directors meeting. and informa ton obtained from bankers indicated that there will be very little, if any, trouble in selling them at pres eEt.
 The special committee and the city com nissjoners will hold conference with reference to the bond issue in a few days, at which time something definite on the auditorium proposition is expected to be announced.

Dr. Young GiUes Inside Facts On Condition of President

more slowly it is true. but surely steadily. There have been no set backs no backward steps, and rumors to this effect are rubbish.
 AS you know. in October last, we diagnosed the Presidents illness as cerebral thrombosis, which affected his left arm and leg, but at no time was his brain power or the extreme vigor and lueidity of his mental processes in the slightest degree abated. This con dition has from the very first shown a steady unwavering tendency toward resolution and complete absorption. The increasing utility of the left arm and leg. greatly impaired at first, have closely followed on this improvement The President walks sturdily now, without assistance and without fatigue. And he uses the still slightly impaired arm more and more every day.
 "As to his mental vigor. it is sim ply prodigious. Indeed, 1 think in many ways the President is in better shape than before the illness came.
 You can say that the President is able minded and able-bodied. and that he is giving splendid attention to af- fairs of state, and that we have every assurance that he will become pro excessively more active in these mat ters with the advent of spring and sunshine, which cannot now be long delayed"

 Other witnesses for defense were Cleveland Newby. who arrested Mur- pny; Floyd Cummings, John Rufus Rains and Ike Vincent
