IN AND ABOUT THE CITY

To arrange for a district H-Y get
together, Secretary Fenby w. Scott,
of the Y. NJ. c. A.. went to New
Brunswick this morning to confer
with other advisors of the club.
The operations of a gang of or
ganized tire thieves seems to be
revealed in the number of reports of
lost tires received at police head
quarters lately. Scarcely n day
passes hat does not see at least one
tire disappear in the city and last
Saturday night no less than four
were taken. Captain Long of the
detective department, thinks a gang
of thieves is at work and is taking
steps to put a stop to the practice.
Captain Long said tire stealing was
developing into a greater industry
than car stealing because stolen tires
are harder to find and it is easier
and less risky to dispose of them.
A misstatement appeared yester-
day in the story of the report of
the Middlesex Anti-Tuberculosis
League, concerning the money col
lected by the league from the sale
of the Christmas seals. The amount
of money now in the bank is SS.1S1,
This is from the result of the sale
of the seals during the Christmas
season past. In 1920 the sale of the
seals amounted to $1,000, which
shows that the sale of the seals dur
ing the Christmas season just past
exceeded those of 1920 by q
large number. The money
new in the bank for the sale of 1921
is not yet complete, as the major
ity of the districts have not made
their complete reports as yet and for
this reason it is expected that the
present amount will be considerably
swelled when the districts are all
heard from.
g. Special Master Adrian Lyon has
recommended an absolute divorce
for Mrs. Mary Seladye from her hus-
band. Paul Seladye, on the grounds
of cruenty. The couple were married
in May, 1902. in Hungary. Mrs.
Seladye now resides in Fords. There
;s'e six children, three of whom have
been placed in the custody of their
mother. 1t was learned from Mrs.
Seladye's attorney, Leo S. Lowen-
kopf, today, that when the papers
in the case were served on the hus-
band he could not read them and
met a couple of soldiers along the
for him. The soldiers became so
angry when they read of the cruel
way Seladye had treated his wife
and family that they gave him a
beating.

 A APERMANEN7 ARCH
Committee Appointed to Plan
 Local Civic Work

| At the regular meeting of the New Britain Lions club held at the Junior l O. U, A. M hall on Hungerford Court | this noon. Americanization Director James O'Brien told the club members that he believed this organization | should get behind a civic movement In New Britain and do something that would be of a great benefit to the city
 He suggested that a committee be appointed to discuss the advisablity of the Lions club taking an active interest in the erection of a perma- nent Court of Honor at Walnut Hill park. Mir O'Brien said that the city officials were not pushing the project as much as they should and he thought that the club should get be- hind the movement and see to it that q permanent memorial was erected in place of the temporary wooden structures that now grace the road of the entrance into the park from West Main street.
 William c. French agreed with Mir O'Brien. and upon his motion Presi- dent w. w. Bullen was authorized to appoint a committee to discuss the possibilities that can be considered in New Britain and to report at a later meeting.
 Guests Are Present.

Potatoes Have Little Feeding
Value AS Compared To Grain

That potatoes have considerable
feeding value is quite generally known
but their value compared to other feeds
b not so well known. Even with the
prevailing low prices for potatoes, it
will, in most cases, prove Improbable
10 feed anything but the culls, is the
finding Of r. w. Christensen, head of
the animal nutrition department, North
Dakota Experiment station, who says
Experiments have shown that the re-
6tive values Of feeds are best express
I'd in units Of net energy called therms.
It Is not necessary to explain here
what a therm is, except to state, that
afeed which contains so therms Of net
energy per 100 pounds is, generally
speaking, twice as valuable as feed
which contains only 40 therms. On
this basis potatoes contain 10, corn
silage 16, wheat bran SO, oats 6S, and
eorn and barley Sc therms per 100
pounds. 1t will be readily seen that
potatoes and corn silage have nearly
the same value pound for pound but
sran and potatoes differ greatly. Three
hundred pounds of potatoes yield 81
therms or units which is almost the
same as is contained in 100 pounds of
bran. Therefore, it takes approximate
y three pounds Of potatoes to equal
bne pound Of bran> In the same way it
ean be Shown that approximately 3.75
pounds of potatoes are required to
squal one pound of oats and 4.75
pounds to equal pound Of corn or
barley.
With potatoes at IS cents per bushel
TORN silage will be worth approximate
" IS per ton, bran STATS per ton, oats
% cents per bushel and corn and bar
ey " cents per bushel. It is evident
from the foregoing statements that un-
hess potatoes bring less than Is cents
per bushel they cannot be fed profit
IDLY If oats can be bought at 80 to 40
cents or corn and barley at 70 cents.
On the other hand Gull potatoes would
se worth SIS per ton compared to corn
'ilage at the same price. While pota-
Toes may in general be substituted

Hene Palady Charged With Stealing
Fi1y

Gene Palady, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
hi Palad y, who reside near the Rem
vile county line, twelve miles north
OF Carpio,. was arrested by Sheriff
Scofield's forces Wednesday, charged
with grand larceny. It is said that
he is willing to enter plea Of guilty
to stealing flax from Renville coun-
ty farmer named Larson.
Raymond Nestor, young man, who
was Palady's pal, was arrested and is
now in the Bottineau county Jail. He
confessed to a number of things, i'm
plicating Palady.
The Palady family have caused the
authorities much trouble. The father
was once arrested and placed in the
county Jail and later he caused the
arrest of his wife.

pound for pound for corn slage, not
more than 30, to IS pounds should be
FED daily per head to milk COWS as
larger amounts are likely to affect the
quality of both milk and butter, un-
favorably. The potatoes should be
chopped the same as beets or turnips
and should be reasonably free from
dirt.
The foregoing statements apply to
average condition in which feeds are
substituted for one another in rations
that are otherwise satisfactory. 1t is
impossible to make general statements
that will apply in all cases as the
quality Of the feed, the individual likes
and dislikes Of the cows, the kinds and
amounts of feeds used all affect the
values of the others. For instance
COWS producing milk need considerable
amounts of a substance called protein.
The amount of protein in feeds varies
greatly. Bran is much richer in pro
teln than potatoes, and therefore, if
bran is included in ration that is
lacking in protein it may appear more
valuable than the above figures indi-
Gated. On the other hand, if no silage
or roots are being fed, potatoes may
appear relatively more valuable than
shown here. Because of their succu.
lent or watery nature, they will in
crease the palatabiIity of the ration,
stimulate the appetites of the cows and
thus induce greater feed consumption
with resulting increased milk produc
ton.
The relatively low feeding value Of
potatoes is due chiefly to the large
amount Of water they contain On the
average potatoes contain 70 per cent
of water whereas feeds such as bran,
oats, barley or corn, all Of which ap
pear perfectly dry, contain from 10 to
~ per cent Of water. The dry or solid
material in potatoes has about the
same feeding value as that In the
grains, but while 100 pounds of pota'
toes furnish only q pounds Of dry mat
ter, oats, barley and corn furnish 81
to 30 pounds. L..

Heavy Snow Fall Tucsday-Good
CrCnS Predicted

A heavy snow fell thruout this sec
ton of the state all day long Tues
day and by night the ground was
covered with several inches of it.
This proved somewhat disappointing
to the farmers who were anxious to
start their wheat seeding, but the
ground will be all the better for the
moisture after a few days. This
country never gets too much moisture
at this time of the year, for no matter
how heavy a snowfall we may have in
the winterIa large part of this mois-
TIRE runs off the land in the spring.
All indications point to a year for a
big crop.

soWn last fall and farmers say this
Iop looks better this spring than in
years.
