CONDEMN HIGH PRICED
STOCK FOODS
Prominent Hog Raiser Says Prices
Charged Are Unwarranted-
Makes His Own Hog Food,
With Better Results.

THAT he is all through paying fancy
prices for stock foods and hog rem
edies and he is raising some Of the
best hogs ever placed on the market
the statement made recently by
E. H. Beckstead, well known hog raiser
and authority on live stock.
Mr.. Beckstead's hogs are the envy
of his neighbors, and have topped the
market for several years in Iowa.
He states that for years he bought
bigh-priced hog foods and hog REM
edies, but he is all through paying ev-
.travagant prices for what he can make
himself. He states that what the hogs
need are minerals, and tells the secret
Of his wonderful success by explaining
that he takes about five pounds Of
ordinary mineraline (Which is pure
concentrated minerals and costs only a
couple Of dollars) and mikes same
with enough bran or filler to make a
hundred pounds. All hogs, and es-
peciallybrood sows require minerals as
they keep them free from worms, and
in the pink of condition, and are essen
tial to the hog growth and q well bal
anced ration. This inexpensive mix
ture placed in a sheltered box where
the hogs can get at 1t as they need it,
will produce far better results than
any high priced so-called stock foods,

SUIT FOR $4,000
IS FILED AGAINST
|. MCF. GAMBLE

The North Missouri Trust Company,
as the guardian of John, May and
Arthur Morgan, has filed a suit in the
circuit court against l. Mcfarland
Gamble for $4,000 damages. The case
will be tried in the March term Of
court.
In the petition, it is alleged that on
September 20, 1920, while John Nor
gan, the father of these children, was
employed as a common laborer by MI.
Gamble in the construction Of the
Orpheum Theatre, he received injuries
that caused his death a few days later.
1t is alleged that Mr.. Morgan was
working on scaffolding, assisting an
other man, and that the boards of
which the scaffolding, at that partic-
ular place, was built were old and rot
ten and were insufficient to hold the
weight of the men and should not have
been used, and Mr.. Gamble knew or
could have known by ordinary care
that these timbers were unsafe.
Morgan fell about 10 feet, when the
~scaffolding broke and received exter-
nal and internal injuries.

Several literary luminaries have at

born at Hannibal, Missouri, but he
spent a great many years of his life
in Hartford. His old home is over on
Pennington Avenue a little way from
where l live. With his usual instinct
"or humor he put the kitchen of his
house next to the avenue, so, as he
said, the cook and the maids could

Stowe, who once stirred the world
with Uncle Toms Cabin also lived
here for some time, in a quaint old
house on Forrest Street. Charles Dud-

WHAT THEY SAY
By BILL THOMPSON

The question was: What do you think of the ordinance that Commis- sioner Burruss is trying to have passed that will require all jitney drivers to be under heavy bond?
 Where asked: Here and there down. town.
 The answers were:
 Richard Wilson, 401 Sixth avenue, Boyles: T am heartily in accord with Commissioner Burruss plan Jitney drivers should be under heavy bono, because they are not a permanent organization like the street car com pany."
 Walter Perry 1oO6 Thirtieth street, north The welfare of the public de- mands that jitney drivers be more careful. And as a daily passenger on the jitneys I think that they should be bonded for their own good If under heavy bond the driver will think twice before he takes a. chance that will endanger the lives of the passengers in his machine"
 Albert Sims, 1919 Alabama avenue, West End: If Commissioner Burruss has that ordinance passed 1t will be the highlight of his administration. It is protection to the public for the jitney drivers to be under bond and it is not showing favor towards the street car company, for the street car company is there to receive the blame in case of accident or damages"

PROPER FOOD TO
 GET BEST MILK

When it becomes known that milk IS the cheapest and most nourishing of animal products, the demand will become so great as to necessitate the dairymen increasing the supply 100 per cent, says W. A. Hall manager of the Interna- tional Sugar Feed company of Memphis Tenn.
 Wherever milk consumption is de- creased there is always apparent a not able undernourished condition in the population. This is especially notable among children. Grown-ups need milk as well as children Milk is never high in price and can always be bought at prices, nourishment considered, not in excess of one-half that of meat.
 Every dairyman should make the facts about milk plain to his community, and there will be more milk consumed and healthier people.
 Assure production of highest quality, energy, strength and power producing milk by selecting pure-bred cows of known high test in milk-producirfg Qual- iioations.
 Proper feeding of balanced rations will increase the amount of milk, but the quality must be bred into the cow In different feeding only produces unsatis- factory and profitless results. and dairy ing need not be devoid of profit; on the contrary, it is highly profitable to thou sands who give their chosen field care and attention.
 Feed for dairy cows must contain three essential thing, one to enable them to build up the tissues of their bodies, another to warm them and give the en- ergy needed for miIk-making, and an- other to make milk.
 These three things are: Protein Tor blood, flesh, tissue and caseine; l5 to IS per cent. according to best authorities, IS ample More than that overworks the cows productive organs and will pre- maturely wear her out.
 Carbohydrates heat the body, supply energy and some fats, Ash builds her bones and is splendid element in her milk

The Birmingham sabres, a troop of cavalry composed of local men, is now complete organization. Full member ship was received at a banquet at the Tutwiler hotel last night when 65 Bir- mingham men took the oath as members of the new troop of cavalry.
 The membership now stands at 65, not including the officers. Horses for each member and the officers are to be sent here by the government immediately and the use of the fair grounds as a drill and practice field was given by R. 4. Brown who attended the banquet last night.
 Uniforms, horses, rifles and all other equipment will be furnished by the gov ernment. An inspection by government official will be held next Tuesday night. The banquet last night was attended by many local business men, all of whom stated that any of their employees who are members of the cavalry will receive full pay for the time they are absent from their work.

SIDEWALK SORROWS

Several people paused for moment or two to gaze second time. at the young chap who had such an eye for beauty.
 He couldn't have been day over several years of age He had light golden hair and the brightest or blue eyes.
 He also had a. mouth that looked like 1t was just made for smiling But he was far from smiling then. Any one could tell by the tiny wrinkles on his forehead that he was engaged in deep thought.
 But he was also putting that thought into action. He seemed to, have an eye for beauty. The beauty of the trees and the flowers. He was collecting leaves and branches Of trees and placing them in a pile on the ground.
 Interest quickened among the side walk spectators. The little chap was collecting the leaves and branches and stuffing them down into the seat of his trousers He glanced around him quickly. The gaze of the people standing upon the sidewalk followed his and they saw he was standing in front of the school house.
 A teacher came to the door with switch in her hand She called for Jimmie" and Jimmie, just a trifle shaky. marched into the schoolhouse.
