MILO VALUABLE FOR
FEEDING ALL STOCK
Rapid Increase in Acreage in
the Past Few Years.
Best and surest Way to improve Crop
Is for Each Farmer to Select
Seed and Give Plant Good,
Clean Cultivation.

prepared by the United States Depart.
ment of Agriculture)
Milo has long since passed the ex-
peFimental stage as farm crop in the
southwestern United States, accord
ing to Farmers bulletin No. 1147, re-
Gently issued by the United States De-
paItment Of Agriculture. This is
shown by the rapid increase in its
acreage and value in the past 10 years.
From approximately $4,000 acres in
1899, valued at 100000, the crop had
increased in 1918 to 100000 acres,
valued at $21,30O,0OO, nearly fifty-fold
in acreage and more than one hundred
fold in value. The increase IN
acreage in the ten years from 1900
to 1913, inclusive, has been rapid and
substantial, totaling about 100000
acres, with an added value of $751;
100000.
Milo has not yet reached its econom-
ic limits in either acreage or produc-
ton. These, it Is said, should in
crease still further as the value and
the adaptation of the crop are more
generally understood. Many acres Of
land in the district where milo is
adapted that are now used or devoted
to other less profitable crops may be
used to advantage by growing milo.
Tie best and surest way to improve
the crop is fOf each farmer to select
his seed, prepare a good seeded, and
give the crop good, clean cultivation.
Milo is used for feeding all kinds of
stock. 1t may be used either as a.
grain ration or a roughage ration for
horses and cattle. The use Of the
crop for silage is increasing. The
grain is also used as food for man,
milo meal being said to equal corn
meal either for separator use or in
combination with wheat flour.
Detailed information concerning the
varieties of milo and their proper cul-
tivation, harvesting, storing and uses,
are contained in new bulletin, which
may be had upon request of the
United States Department of Agri-
culture at Washington, d. G.

Fertile eggs from vigorous stock are
essential in good Matching. They are
obtained only from stock properly
mated and kept under the best posi-
BILE conditions to secure health and
vitality. Eggs from Overfat breeding
stock do not usually produce many
strong chicks.
If breeding birds are confined they
should be fed a varied supply of grains,
meat, and green feed. The green feed
helps to keep fowls in good breeding
condition, say poultry specialists of
the United States Departmental Agri-

tant in the production of hatchable

Never before since he had taken up

MacCauley found the hours so long
and so difficult to live through. Day
after "a He canOed to the place Tony

apprehension He questioned. the girl
time after time. asking her IL she felt
well, If there was anything she wanted,
but she always replied in the negative.
One day after they had had their
dinner, he sat looking at her curiously.
She was close to the window reading
a book, when he caused her to look up
by calling her name.
"Run downstairs, Tony DEAR" he
went on, "and tell my brother to come
up here before Office hours, will you,
honey7"
The girl rose, laying aside her book,
She dreaded venturing into Mrs. Cur
it's presence and shlvered when she
remembered the critical Katherine who
looked her over with supercillous tole-
ration whenever they happened to
meet. But she made no complaint and
went slowly downstairs.
The dining room door was closed, but
the sound Of voices from within told
her the family was at dinner. She
opened the door slowly and stepped
inside. For one moment her vision
was obscured by the fright that sud
denly took possession Of her. AS the
blur cleared from her eyes, she saw
John Pendlehaven smiling at her. Then
a sharp ejaculation from some one else
swung her gaze from the doctors face,
and It settled on-PhiIip MacCauley.

discolored with bruises, fast asleep in
the chair by the bedside.
II was d stubborn Tony that faced
Doctor John that morning. Adroltly he
tried to draw from her the reason for
her extreme paleness. for the dark
marks stretched across her face, and
the meaning of the shudders that sud
denly attacked her.
Il can't TELL" she reiterated In dis
tress ais she had to his brother. "Please
don't ask me-"
That her mother was dead, she firm-
ly believed. This she did tell the doc
tor between many sObs and tears.
"I'll never see her ever any more"
she told him TREMENDOUSLY. "And If
you'll let me, I'll live here forever and
forever and take care Of Doctor Paul."

you had seen how he grleved last

him.
She searched the mans face and
caught his smile.
Better than you do mer he came
in with.
Eyes, said Tonnibel, honestly, ''but

Philip, Of the hours he had held her
against his breast, Of the kiss In the
mornings dawn, and she fell into
bashfnl silence.
When Doctor Pendlehaven told Mrs.
CARTS that Tony had returned. her
face drew down In a sulky Gown.
aBut we needn't care" Katherine
said afterward, "she doesn't bother us
much. For my part can't see how

limited feeding tests with sunfower
seed compared to grains show them to
be Of about equal value. From their
composition sunfower seed should
have about the same value as mixed
corn and oats. The sunfiOwef seed Is
higher in protein than corn or oats, but
ls also higher In crude fiber than corn
or oats grains. For growing animals
or laying hens probably the sunfower

somebody else then. Perhaps he'd
turn his attention to you, mother

'He won't while Paul lives" sighed
Mrs. Curtis. II don't know just what
to do. I've thought of every cOncelv-
able way to get that girl out Of the
house, and John forestalls me every
time"

Katherine proceeded, 1--WE can't deny

bitterly. Heavens! What's the use

Meanwhile upstairs Tony Devon was
fast getting back to her normal self.
The blessed assurance she had that she
was needed by her sick friend lifted
her spirits. She grieved inwardly for
her mother, but shuddered when she
thought Of her father. Now all ties
were cut between them. She had no
doubt but that both Urfah and Reggie
thought she was dead in the lake.
She hoped they did Shed never see
either one of them again.
She was sitting thinking deeply
when Paul Pendlehaven spoke TO her.
Little dear" said he, reaching out
his hand toward her, come over a
minute. l want to talk to you!"
TOnnibel went to him instantly, as
she always did when he called her.
"You will promise me something"
he insisted, as his hot hand clasped
hers. stony, don't go out again like
you did yesterday. / shan't be able to

Tonnibels mind flashed to Philip.
She felt sure he would go to the cor
ner of the lake every day to meet her,
as he had gone to the canal boat
Yet as she gazed into the impIoring
eyes of her friend, she had no heart
to deny him his wish.
'sI'm selfish, perhaps" the man went
on, "but, Tony dear, IL you want to
go out, there's lots of cars in the
garage, and horses in the stable. Won't
you promise me?'
Tony thrust the memory Of Philips
face from her mind. She put the wish
to be In his arms again, to feel his
warm lips once more on hers behind
her, and trembllngIy smiled in &C
Quiescence.
II promise" she said In a low voice,
but a sob prevented her from saying
anything more.

sun had called into life the bees and
birds, Ithaca still slumbered.
The noise came again, striking
against his nervous brain and waking
him. Suddenly, with painting breath
and beating pulses, he lifted himself
ON his elbow. The screen had fallen
from the window and perhaps ten Sec
