GROWING RATI0NS FOR CALF
In Feeding Young Dairy Animals Ma.
terial Supplied Must Be FLESH
Buildino-SaIt Is Needed.

"There are two things to remember
In feeding dairy calves" says E. A.
Hanson, dairy specialist with the agri-
cultural extension division Of the Uni
versity of Minnesota. 1.-THE feed must
make them grow and must supply
fiesh-building material so they will be
in good condition.
Growing feeds, he says, consist of
skim milk, clover hay, oats, bran and
oil meal. The fattening feeds are
corn, barley and oil meal. For calves
under six months old in good condi-
ton and having a soft, mellow hide
a mixture of 30 pounds ground corn,
30 pounds ground oats, 80 pounds
bran and 10 pounds oil meal, fed three
to five pounds daily, is recommended
by Mr.. Hanson. A mixture of. 80
pounds ground corn, 20 pounds ground
barley, 40 pounds ground oats and 10
pounds oil meal, also fed at the rate
of from three to five pounds a day, is
advised for calves in poor condition.
"Salt improves the calf's appetite,
so keep box with clean salt in shell
tered place where the calf may eat of
it freely" Mr.. Hanson advises. "Pro-
vide all the good clover or alfalfa hay
the calf will eat up clean. Never al
low the calves or yearlings to run with
the herd"

AGAINST THE TIDE

PEsETTING you on every hand
O is the invisible tide which is
hourly sweeping humans from their
charted course and carrying them in
| to unknown waters.
The captains Of courage who have
| gone before, weathered the treach-
| erous currents and reached a secure
haven, are the only ones who can tell
you what this opposing tide means
to the young or the inexperienced,
or the over-confident.
They will tell you how difficult it
is in trying moments to keep your
honor bright; how hard it is to steer
away from temptation or the habit
of loose thinking; how perpleXing it
is to avoid the sucking shoals when
you should keep cool, hold to the
straight course and exert your ut
most strength.
You may pose for a hero before
the world, but be careful lest the tide
pull you under and expose the fraud.
If your colors are false, beware
for the tide knows them.
In spite Of its purring voice and
shining face it is a restless foe, a
bearer of no tales, q silent destroyer
of ambition and a wrecker of hope
when your star seems to glow the
brightest and you stand pulled up in
cOnceit before an admiring world.
! Alas! for the man who in such a
moment plunges headlong into the tide
without first reckoning his endurance.
The water is icy cold, swift and
treacherOus.
How many men do you know who
have gone down in such a plunge,
never again to show their head?
Their pride and pomp, their wealth
sank from sight and left only few
empty bubbles behind, bursting and
disappearing.
Be honest with yourself. sincere
with others, practice the Golden Rule,
steer your craft by the unfailing COM

Uncommon
Sense

The wanting habit can grow into q
very bad habit, indeed, unless you are
careful, to want what you need.
1t is well to remember in this con-
nection that there are some very i'm
portant needs that you ought to want
first of all.
One of them is a good reputation.
Another is good health. A third is
a home
Want these badly enough to get
them, and confine your wants after
that to things that are reasonably
certain to bring happiness.
Then want as ha:d as you like, and
your wanting will not hurt you.
Want what you need and you will
be reasonably sure to get it, If you
begin young enough. But don't want
what you don't need. 1t will only
make you miserable for life, even
though you attain the object of your
desires.

WANT WHAT YOU NEED
PHILOSOPHERS telI us we car
l. have anything We want, provided

PHILOSOPHERS jell US we can
l. have anything We want, provided
we want It enough.
With certain qualifications this Is
true. It explains why many men get
things out of life that their friends
never expected to get. They wanted
them, and they got them.
Getting things in that way foc most
people involves considerable sacrifice,
For example, if dry goods clerk
wants an automobile he may get it,
but he will have to skimp pretty heav-
lily on his clothes and Diet if he gets
it while he still remains a dry goods
clerk.
1t is for this reason that when you
begin wanting something, it will pay
you to want what you need.
That will involve thought, or none
of us know what we need uIti; we
devote considerable time to reflection
and study.
There are men who want new wives,
when they have perfectly good wives
Mt home. They don't leed them, and
therefore ought not to want them.
There are other men who want
wealth, when they don't need wealth.
Still other men want steam yachts
when row boats would do them more
good, and private swimming pools
when they would get more fun and
he;,' h out of public baths in the
ocean.
They may get these things, but
they will be NJ better OFF when they
do get them.

ROMANCE OF WORDS

SIGNIFYING literally econ

word was originally applied to
the small hard bon-bons former
ly thrown during the carnival
days in Rome, Naples and other
cities in the southern section of
Europe. These candies are
known as coriandoli, and the
term confetti" is applied to the
cheaper and more popular sub
stitutes-hard pellets about the
size of hailstone which are
carried in bags by the masked
jewellers and thrown from tin
ladies.
The custom of throwing con-
fetti was introduced into France.

especially popular at the fetes
of Mi-Careme (Mid-Lent) and
Mardi-Gras (Shrove Tuesday,.
But the French, possibly be-
cause they took their pleasure
less seriously than the Italians.
substituted bits of gaily colored
paper for the hard pebbles or
candies, and when the custom
was introduced into the United
States by the French settlers of
Louisiana and other sections.
confetti was understood to mean
only the scraps of paper.
The amount of confetti used
in Paris is apparent from an
account of one of tie Mardi.
Gras celebrations, when it was
estimated by one Of the local
newspapers that 100000
pounds were sold during the
three days preceding Ash Wed

of twenty cents n pound, some
100000 was spent upon this

In the Democratic primary for the
court OF appeal stands between Judge

M. Boatner, Old Regular.
With few reports missing the race
an unofficial tabulation gives Bell a.
374 and Boatner 24,355, majority of
10 for Bell.
1t is believed that Boatner carried
st. John parish. One vague report
received at Old Regular headquarters
was that Boatner had carried it by so
votes. If this is true, then he has a
majority Of thirtyone.
The two missing precincts in Pla-
Quemines, it is believed, will show ma

This reduces the contest to a neck

Unofficial returns give the following
vote in this race:

Possibilities Of court contest from
either side appear imminent in the
Bell-Boatner race. In the meantime
political eyes are focused on the Of
eice of Secretary Of State James J.
Bailey at Baton Rouge, where the
official returns are to be tabulated.
Returns also are far from complete
in the race between Professor ]. N.
Gourdain Of Convent, st. James par
Ssh, Old Regular, and John st. Paul,
Jr., New Regular, for member Of the
state board of education from the
Second Congressional District. Indi-
cations are, however, that Professor
Gourdain has obtained a good lead
over Mr.. st. Paul.
Should Judge Bell win the court OF
appeals race, Mr.. st. Paul will be the
only New Regular candidate to lose.
The New Regulars polled their strong
est vote in the downtown section,
which is in the First Congressional
District, while Mr.. St. Pauls district
includes only uptown wards. The Of
ficial count may show a difference,
too, in his race with Professor Gour
dain, for there are some differences.
Both Maurice E. Cain, New Regular
candidate for registrar of conveyance
