bushels of corn per acre on land heav- fly treated with the ashes from rice hulls. He has no corn on the land where the ashes was not used.
 Another rice grower raised 40 to 50 bushels of corn per acre on old rice land we'll manured with barnyard manure. Another 50 bushels per acre of corn manured with routed rice straw
 Cowpeas yield heavy crop of hay on rice land, and increases the yield of the rice next year.
 A few rice growers have raised huge yields of sweet potatoes on the better drained rice land. Many want to grow a considerable acreage of sweet potatoes this year, but want to sell them at digging time They say they do not want to build curing and storing houses for the sweet po- tatos, because as soon as they can they want to go back to raising rice only. With good curing houses, sweet potatoes could be made an im- portant crop in the rice growing dis tricts. Without them, it will not pay to raise sweet potatoes, except few for the family use early in the fall.
 Spanish peanuts have yielded we'll for three successive years on one rice farm, and were used to feed the work teams, the nuts taking the place of grain and the tops that of hay.
 Much cracked rice is being fed to horses and mules to take the place of corn and oats.

HOW WE THINK THE
 FIRE STARTED

To Editor of Independent:-
 As quite a number have asked me how l thought the fire of last Thurs day p. m. that destroyed all of our out buildings started, if you can allow me the space in your paper shall endeav- or to explain. Thursday a. m. about 5 o'clock set bucket that was about two thirds full of ashes and cinders out in my yard about 20 feet from my dwelling and about 35 feet from the building that first caught fire.
 The building that caught fire first had four departments, an open shed towards the house. a smoke house, car shed and cow stall in which my wife milked her cows.
 The open shed had some kindling

COMPELLED TO PAY MORE THAN PREVAILING RATE FOR UNSKILLED
 LABOR

The basic rates of pay for unskilled railroad labor Gas fixed by agreements made under government control of the railroads) are 39 to 48 1-2 cents an hour-S3.12 to s3.88 per eight-hour day.
 The Railroad Labor Board now in session in Chicago, has declined to suspend these rates and permit the roads, as they requested, to pay the prevailing rate of wages.
 In their petition to the Labor Board with respect to wages paid to un- skilled labor the railroads said:
 Since your decision was made on July 20, 1920, these rates have fallen materially throughout the United States.
 'To require the railroads to con tinue to pay wages far in excess of those paid by other industries is UNI FAIR TO THOSE INDUSTRIES, and bears with grave injustice upon the great body of our farmers.
 within the next month or six weeks practically all of the railways of the country must recruit their un- skilled labor forces.
 "It is desirable that large part of the work for which these men are necessary be concentrated in periods

MOLASSES VALUE IN SWEET
 FEEDS
By Will A. Hall, Manager Internation- al Sugar Feed Go. Memphis, Tenn.

By Will A. Hall, Manager Internation-
 al Sugar Feed Go. Memphis, Tenn.
 Palability means much in economic feeding of animals for meat, milk or horse power. If your animals relish the ration you furnish, better diges- tion will result and the feed will pro- duce maximum weight, milk flow or work.
 Regardless of reasons why humans and animals thrive better on food that tastes good than on other food that, while of equal nourishing qualities, is not relished, it is nevertheless a fact
 Sugar cane molasses will make an unpalataole. but valuable feed palat able and has feed value equal ;., corn if not over 50 per cent of the ration. Molasses promotes sound, healthy state, enables the animal to extract maximum nourishment from all of his food and improve digestion
 Molasses creates a natural thirst for water, is a cheap source of grain, brings young and old stock into good condition quickly, prevents diarrhoea and collie, insures prime and showy condition of coats and skins Where everything else fails, it will keep stock on full feed, especially when their ap- petites are tickle and will create hard firm flesh.

You will find them by the railroad where they lift and drop the gates, where that bunch of men are working at the pitching of the quoits, all the afternoon you'll find them. busy work ing like the bee, and every once in a while they holler, ah, there mis- ter, give me three; then there comes a noisy babble like Sunday base ball match, and dozen yell together, did you see him make scratch? Yes, the boys have left the club room cause they've got better job, where the thrills come quick and faster, and the game collects a mob, and they're nice old boys, you'd say so, if you'd see their shining pates, as they squint and measure distance just before they pitch the quoits. Some are straight and some are crooked, some are slim and some are fat, but they're all as full of ginger as Babe Ruth when up to bat, men who work to make living with their knives and forks and plates but who always work the hardest at the pitching of the quoits.

 Also there was hens nest in a box on the ground under this shed that was made of excelsior As the ash bucket was in the direction from the way that hard wind was blowing that came up about four o'clock and as we were all from home at the time, the chances are that if the gale did not blow the ash bucket all the way to the open shed it possibly blew over and the wind being so strong blew some cinders to the shed, and the fire started, in the pile of kindling or in the hen nest.
