assisted by H. G. Chittenden.
The usefulness of straw and silage
was shown particularly in tests in
vofving winter rations for mature
cows and for growing steers. Head
ed wheat straw was fed. Tests on
lambs and mature ewes indicated a
deficiency in protein in the rations
and difficulty on the part of the ami
mails in masticating wheat straw. The
matter will be checked up further
during the coming winter.
Cows which received only wheat
straw, lost particularly nothing, but
it was pointed out by Doctor Nc
Campbell that this ration cannot be
accepted as entirely satisfactory be-
cause cows that suckle calves during
the summer are rather thin when they
come from pasture in the fall and
should increase somewhat in weight
during the winter.
The best results according to Doc

FEEDING SPRING PIGS

Many farmers ask, 'What is the
best method of feeding spring pigs
during the weaving period?"
R. w. Kiser, extension specialist
in animal husbandry, has made a
number of suggestions regarding this
question. He finds that farmers in
Kansas are answering that question
by using the self-feeder. ''Feed
them corn and tankage," or ''feed
them corn, wheat middlings and tank
age in self-feeder," are the answers
most farmers are giving to that ques-
ton.
Occasionally farmers will not add
tankage to the ration until about two
weeks before weaving. The mothers
milk and the sweet clover or alfalfa
pasture furnish the necessary protein
and bone growing material. Alfalfa
and sweet clover can be grown on
practically every farm in Kansas. Hog
profits depend upon cheap feed.
Either of these two pasture crops
afford a cheap form of feed.
Pigs settled with corn and tank
age on pasture should be ready for
the market early in September. By
having access to this variety of feeds,
the pigs will be very growthy and
can be weaned somewhat earlier than
pigs that lack thrift due to under
nourishment. When pigs are weaned
early, the SOW has a chance to re-
cuperate and be ready to farrow and
suckle a large strong litter of fall
pigs.
The Wisconsin Agricultural Elk
pertinent Station gives the following
ration as we'll balanced and suitable
one for pigs from weaving time until
they have reached a weight of from
$50 to 500 pounds.
Ground Oats Gree from hulls) 50 lbs
Wheat middlings 35
! Corn Meal 20 &"
Oil Meal 8
/ Salt 2
They say further, ''if feeding for
market which would be after they at
tain the weight of 100 lbs, they
should be supplied all the ear corn
they will clean up in addition" With
good pasture this will do very nicely
for hand feeding. However, the self
| fed pig always does the best and
makes the cheaper gain.
Mr.. Kiser says that NJ NJ. Miller OF
Sumner county is using sweet clover
as a pasture crop, letting the pigs and
SOW have the run of the field. Corn
and tankage are kept in a self-feeder
where the pigs may have access to
the feed at all times. A creep is ar
ranged so the sow Cannot get to the
feeder. Mr.. Miller never fails to top
the Wichita market with his hogs
Generally from two to three carloads
are fed each year. The good gifts
are kept back for next years breed

COST OF CARELEsSNESS.

Carelessness and selfshness are
closely akin because they beget the
spirit of human conduct, best ex-
pressed in the sentiment: Everyone
for himself and the devil take the
hindmost," and II am not my broth
er's keeper" This selfish and inhu.
man sentiment requires a stupendous
sacrifice Of life, limb and property as
we'll as an incalculable amount of suf-
fering and poverty following In it's
wake. In the United States, in one
years time there have been lost $4,000
lives, have happened 100000 So
called accidents and a property loss
amounting to over $250,000,OO0. Most
Of this loss Of life and limb and prop
erty was avoidable. It could be re-
duced to the minimum, were it pos
s1ble to interest all our fellow men in
safeguarding life and property along
modern lines. Instead Of letting the
devil take the hindmost, let every man
be his brothers keeper and so con-
duct himself that he endangers neither
his own life or that Of his fellow man
in his daily tasks in the office, the
shop, the street or wherever he may
be, and not only look out for his own
safety but look out for the safety of
others, as a genuine man should.

Many large business establishments
today will not hire a new employee
until he has submitted to a more or
less thorough physical examination to
determine his fitness for the duties he
will be called upon to perform. This
requirement has seemed harsh to
some, but it really is as much in the
interest of the prospective employee
as Of his employer, says Pittsburgh
Chronicle. The examination frequent
ly discloses hitherto unsupported de-
fects that may be remedied, thus con-
tributing to his efficiency. This scheme
has also been extended with good re-
suits to Industrial concerns and it has
played it's part in the widespread
"safety first' movement.

AMERICAS GIFT y n, WORKS .

It may be, as Meredith Nicholson
has suggested, that Americas gift to
the world will not be an artistic gift
at al, but an ethical one. Each coun-
try seems, like each person, to have
some peculiar gift to give to humans
ty. England gives poetry to the
world-:there has never been in any
other country such procession Of
poets as have passed through England
in the last 900 years-and Germany
gives great music to- it: What is the
gift that America will give? 1 am in
terested> in Meredith Nicholson's opin-
ion that the gift may be a higher
standard of justice, a greater range
Of freedom, remarks st. John Ervine
In Century Magazine, though contem-
porary life in the United States hard
ly convinces me that his opinion is
sound. In any event, America must
produce a literature of her own. It
her gift to the world is to be nobler
ethic than the world now possesses,
then. she cannot fail also to give the
world a noble literature. All great
writing is fundamentally the ex-
preston of a powerful individuality.
One expects to find the greatest litera-
ture in that country where individual
ity has the freest play. Is that coun-
try America?
