IBLANCHED FEED FOR HORSES
Select Ration That Seems to Meet Animals Requirements-Indl-
 viduais Differ.
Prepared by the United States Depart

lPrepared by the United States Depart.
 ment of Agrieulture.}
 As no feed or combination of feeds will meet conditions In all parts of the country, so no feed CT mixture is suit able for all classes of horses. In choosing a ration for q horse, select the one that seems to meet his re- quirements, whether for growth, maintenance, work, breeding CT fatten- ing, estimate the amount Of feed need ed and try out the ration. It may ap. pear after trial that too little Is be- ing fed or that the ration may be changed somewhat in the interest of economy or efficiency If q number of horses are kept different rations may be tested on different animals and the best one selected for general use. h. dividual feeding gives the best re. suits.
 Feeding stuffs are broadly divided into two great classes. proteins and carbohydrates. The protein feeds arc rich in nitrogenous compounds which are used in the animal body in build ing tissue. bone hair etc, and to pro. vide energy; the carbohydrate feeds ure starehy and are used in the animal body in the formation of fat and alsc for energy and heat.
 To obtain the best results in feed ing, the ration should be balanced properly to meet the needs of the ami nal in building tissue and supplying energy for work. The subject is dis cussed in detail In the United States department of agricultures Farmers Bulletin 103O, which will be sent ire, on request.

Poison Gas to Fight Squirrels.

Experiments in the use of poison gas in exterminating grain~eating ground squirrels are under way, according to 3 report of the county horticultural com mission to the Los Angeles board oi supervisors.
 At the same time 1t was announced that Los Angeles county has sold its surplus stock of saeeharine and stryeh' nine to Orange county in order that the neighborng county can join in fhe campaign being Waged against the de structiYe ground squirrels.
 According to Horticultural Commis sioner Ryan, the use of poison gas is necessary at this time because the squirrels. which have been practically eliminated from the worst affected re gions in the county by the use of poi sons during the past few months, fai' to eat the poison at this time, pre- ferring the new vegetable growth.

MUST HAVE ENVlED COMRADES
Pathetic Happening in English Court That Marked the Observance
 of Armistce Day.

The great clocks of London boomed out eleven strokes. The city became as silent as though 1t were a second Pompeii miraeHlously swept clean o1 Its ashes. Motor cars and tram cars ereaked to sudden stops. Policemen stood like graven blue images at their posts. Pedestrians doffed their hats and stood as though they had not known motion for centuries. It was Armistice day and the city was doing honor to those youths who had expe- rienced the Great Adventure.
 In q dingy courtroom a murder trial came to q sudden halt Judge, counsel witnesses and the prisoner stood, and for two minutes, with bowed head did silent reverence 10 those poppy wreathed graves Of France. Before the prisoner fliekered visions of that same France only one year'before. He again saw the faces of comrades he had loved and whom he had watched in the throes of death. Incidents of that last des- perate sprint across No Mans Land. with death on every side, came back to him. Again he heard the shout with which the trenches had greeted the armistiee. He had come safely through. and now
 The two minutes ended. The city came out of it's trance The somber voice of the judge resumed-"and shall hang by the neck until dead"

SOLDIERS LIKED THE PRINCE Heir to British Throne Fond of Min gling With the Fighters, When
 He Was Permitted.

Tn the front lines a Canadian soldier was building a fire one cold night of late autumn Out of the night behind him came a footstep. He turned, and became doubly alert when he saw that the man was not an officer of his regi ment. The visitor approached the blaze, held his hands out over 1t and said:
 This fire certainly looks good to me-"
 The tone was pleasant enough, and suspicion was almost unarmed when the voice went on:
 Have you wood enough? If you haven't I'll get you some more
 The fire builder felt some regret that any suspicion whatever remained, but there had been special warning against strangers not of ones own regiment. In response to it he was about to question the newcomer close, ", when an officer whom he did know came within the flrelit circle and ad- dressed the stranger:
 Your royal highness. it is best that you return to the automobile at once"
 And the prince of Wales reluctantly left the fire and returned to the place where he officially belonged. It was not the first time he had left that place of his own accord and gone forward among the men. The Canadian who tells the story learned afterward that the princes staff had it's hands full to keep him from breaking away from the official circle prescribed for him and mingling xith the men on their own ground.

SHRUNKEN WHEAT GOOD FEED
Hoas in South Dakota Experiments Made Almost as Large Gains
 as With Good Wheat.

"with the price on hogs. shrunken wheat as pig feed is worth about as much as the governments guarantee, '' says J. W. Wilson, professor of animal husbandry at South Dakota State col lege. Professor Wilson bases this statement upon the results of expert. ments conducted at the college some years ago in feeding 44-pound wheat in comparison with 57-pound wheat. Pigs receiving ground shrunken wheat made an average daily gain per head of two pounds, the good wheat producing only three-tenths of a pound more per day per head.

Baptists Make Summer Plans.

Baptists will gather from all parts
of the state, about 1000 strong, at
Greerville, juno 26 to July 9, fer two
weeks of study and recreation. These
sessions form the South Carolina
Baptist summer assembly system, a
combinations of conventions, confer
ences and schools held annually un-
der the general management of a
commission of the Baptist state con-
vention, with headquarters in Colum-
bia. This assembly is now in its
seventh year of successful operation.
While the assembly combines num-
Der of Baptist organizations, it does
not merge them. Each organization
has it's separate existence and all
meet under the general plan of the
assembly system, which provides CO.
operative boarding facilities, plat
form personnel, publicity and other
advantages not easily accessible to
any one of the separate organiza-
tions.
During the first week there will be
held the 25th annual convention of
the Baptist Young Peoples union,
which comes June 1928. The second
annual Baptist state Sunday school
convention will be held June 29-
July 1. The sixth annual convention
IF the federation of Baptist organized
classes of South Carolina comes July
2-3; the Y. w. A. summer conference
comes June 27-July 2 and the sum-
mer school for preachers comes June
27-July 2.
The second week is also filled with
numerous attractions including chau-
tauqua features July 3-S; the Wo-

ference and school of missions, July

ties that many farmers may begin
developing this month are sweet po-
tatoes for winter sale and sorghum
for all-the-year-round sale. 1t requires
special knowledge and some eXpe-
rience to make a good success of
these two farm crops. On the other
hand there are records of farmers
having ceased to grow cotton entire
ly when they became expert at grow
ing and preserving and marketing
these two very important farm crops.
Write the director of the experiment
station in your state for bulletins on
growing and keeping sweet potatoes
and on growing sorghum and making
sorghum syrup. Take up these two
branches of farming as a permanent
part of your farm management plan
and strive to produce and put on the
market the very best of products.
6. Small Grain After Harvest.
Within recent years l have seen
many wheat fields just after harvest
with shocks so loosely and poorly set
up that they blew down or did not
shed water. Ths result is sprouted
or mouldy grain. The small grain
grower who has to depend upon the
itinerant threshing outfit, and often
cannot guess within month of the
time it will arrive on his place, will
do well to stack all grain intended for
seed, milling, or sale. Threshing
from the shock is cheaper than thresh
ing from the stack, when little oppor-
tunity is afforded for damage by ex-
posure to inclement weather, but the
better quality of stack-threshed grain
will more often than otherwise pay
the difference and the straw, if taken
care of after threshing, will be of bet
ter quality.
Remember the grains go through a
curing process-'..heating" or "sweat-
ing''-after threshed, and if piled in
too great bulk may become damaged
before the curing process is complete.
Stacked grain may go through this
curing process before threshing. Pill
ing on a good granary floor and airing
by shoveling over every day or two
will prevent heating. Doors and win
dows should be kept open for the
more perfect exchange of air. Store
on well-ventilated, second-story
floor and protect from rats, mice,
birds and poultry.
2. Sow Main Silage Crop Now.
While it is a good plant to sow an
extra early field for silage in order
that a shortage of silage may be met
as early as possible, the main crop
may easily go in on stubble land and
be planted in June. If you think your
lanl will make 10 tons of silage per
acre, it is safe to figure only on 8
tons. Some do not like to fill the silo
without giving the silage an oppor-
tunity to settle and plant a to 6
acres at time and at intervals of
about one week. Harvesting is done
at the same acknowledgements
