CALF ON MILK SUBSTITUTES
Feeds Which Have Been Tried Have
Given Only Small Degree Of
Satisfaction.

The need for home-raised calves has
lei TO search for milk substitute"
While the feeds which have been tried
have given some degree of success,
there has not yet been found com
piete or satisfactory substitute for
milk. 1t is doubtful if any article or
combination Of articles that will onm-
pletely take the place of milk in diet
during the first TWO months of the
calf's life can be found. There are a
number of so-called milk substitutes
on the market. Most of them are sold
In the form of calf meals, and with
proper care many of them will give
good results. 1t should be clearly un-
derstood at the outset that calves
raised on calf meals will not be as fat
and sleek as those raised on milk.
They will be growthy and healthful.
however, provided they are given prop
er attention. Calf meals can be bought
from local dealers at varying prices,
or they may be mixed at home if the
proper ingredients can be secured. In
many cases the home mixed calf meals
are superior to the ones bought on the
market, and as II rule they are consid
erably cheaper.
According TO the University of Mis-
souri, college of agriculture, calf
meal, in order to give success, should
be made up of ingredients that are cas-
lily digested and that are not too ex-
pensive. A few of the most commonly
1sed materials are: Fine cornmeal,
aour middlings. wheat -four (poor
grade), ground rice, oat flakes, barley
malt, coconut meal, linseed meal, flax
seed meal, cottonseed meal, blood

commercial messages and advertise

same characters whereby to impsrt
his wisdom, they are sacred. Should
the papers be burned by the Chinese
In their own homes, 1t is thought the
ashes OF the sacred writings would

other fuel, ard the ashes Of the Chi
nese writings are held TO be as sacred
as the writings themselves.
Ashes from the sacred furnace are
placed In sacks. These sacks are con-

are carried out to where the tide runs
swiftly, there being consigned to the
waves. This boat is called the Mon

Why Birds Are SUPERIOR.

there was land, but he would need days

 The editor of The AgeHerald has long believed that Ala spruce pine would make white paper because of it's freedom from resin and tupenne To prove his belief he had 50 cords of pine cut last December oaed to Brmingport, loaded and shipped to Niagara Falls On May the wood ground and through the machines The which todays issue is printed the result
 For many northern manufacturers said that southern iron would not make steel They said fine cotton goods could not be manufactured in the south. They said high grade cattle could not be produced here But the south knew better and rroved it.
 The paper industry bids fair offer another example,
 The has shown that be done and that there
 for the south remain the mercy the nadian paper producers.
 The wood from which this paper made called spruce pine by the natives but botancaly it is scrub pine, which good for nothing else earth. Being brous and without resin it decays quickly and good posts It IS small and only very barren and rocky soil Timber cutters in the Warrior river section estimate that 1t will run from 4 to 20 cords per all the the river and along the Spsey and throughout northwest Ala bama trip along the river indicates that it is very plentiful

Plan piyersificatlop

The farmers of Alabama are plan ming to get away from the one-crop system" declared Robert Jemison, Jr. During the past year. l. have given a great deal of attention to agricultural conditions in this state, and have visited farms all over Ala bama. My company has loaned for large insurance company more than s2,00o,000 during the past 12 months on improved farms in this state The bulk of this money is to be used to buy high-grade cattle and hogs. con struct good buildings, and otherwise prepare for farm diversification.
 This sum of money scattered throughout the state in .he hands of progressive farmers means that in the future the production of those farms will be far greater and that neither the boil weevil nor a decline in cotton can threaten them with bankruptcy. In addition. We have placed large sums in Birmingham and vicinity to enable the people 10 build new homes and other buildings. This money is aiding materially In solving the housing situation"

STRANGE STONE HEADS

By Science Service.
 Honolulu, Hawaii.-A large rock with photographs in a style unlike that of any previously found there, has been discovered at Atuona, Hiva ca. in the Marquesas Islands. by Ralph Linton, who is engaged in work in the party Of Prof. H. U. Gregory, director of the Bernice Pauahi Bishop museum here.
 While this expedition has found the native averse to the excavation of their old sacred sites and the col lection Of the human skeletons found in the ruins. the exploration has brought to light this carved stone, which is declared to be decidedly non Marquesan. Archaeoioalsts consider this find of great importance in Poly nesian ancient history.
 This rock is at one end of an enor- nous structure decorated with heads of regular MarQuesan form. The dec orated ruin which is considered the highest development of Marqu asar stone work Is series of three plat forms. tho first 1v feet high. lSo feet Ions, and 20 feet wide. built on hill side. These stones are large and ac- crrateiy fitted. and the second ter race is decorated wttn gigantic stone heads inserted in the masonry at IT, regular intervals.
