Horse Population Decreases

Startling figures showing the de-
crease in the number of horses in the
United States have been given out by
the National Horseshoers' Protective
association. This decrease has run
from SO to rs per cent In the last ten
years and there was a falling of Of
more than 100000 head in 1923 alone,
when the horse population was put at
1s,S53,OOO against 100000 in 1922.
In ten years the decrease of IS per
cent In Chicago and of SO per cent in
Baltimore has been slower than in
any of the other large cities.

Unnecessary Expense to
Grind Beans for Swine

Fattening hogs will eat whole SOY
beans more readily than ground soy
beans, according to G. NJ. Vestal of
Purdue university. A series of ex-
periments just finished at the agri-
culture college shows that a lot of
pigs fed ground beans made an aver
age daily gain of. 1.56 pounds during
Today test. They ate 3O1 pounds
of corn and so pounds of soy beans
for each 100 pounds gain. A lot fed
on whole soy beans made exactly the
same daily gain. They ate 2S2
pounds Of corn and 95 pounds Of soy
beans for each 100 pounds gain. The
feed cost for 100 pounds gain was
S5.77 for the ground soy beans and
$3.50 for the whole soy beans, with
corn at 70 cents a bushel, ground soy
beans at S1.5O~ bushel and whole
soys at $1.45 a bushel.
In a check experiment with three
lots of hogs, the lot fed on ground
soy beans made a daily gain of 1.64
pounds with a feed cost Of $6.05 per
hundred pounds gain. The lot Sed on
whDle soys made gain of 1.69 pounds
daily with feed cost of 5000 per
hundred. A third lot fed on un-
threshed soy beans made an average
daily gain of LA pounds at q
feed cost of S6.OS. These figures
show that grinding beans for hogs is
an unnecessary expense.

Grant had expected, continued un-
abated, but his nervous tension grad
ually relaxed, and when at length
Wilson was awakened by an excep-
tionalIy loud clap of thunder he took
the boy in his arms and soothed his
little fears as mother might have
done. They sat for n long while in a
big chair in the living room, and ex-
changed such condolences as man
may with child of five. After the
lad had dropped back into sleep Grant
still sat with him in his arms, think

And what he thought was this: He

dozen ways, but 1t circled around
him, gradually closed In upon him and

have called me u coward, and again
he would have been right. Linder was

the time to do something that would

then turned again to watch the storm
through the windows. 1t seemed to
be subsding; the lightning, although
still almost continuous. was not SO

"What little incidents turn our

house, bursting like white fire from

to the whlm-room and was standing
over the child when the crash of thun-

gently, smiled. and settled back TO his
sleep.
Grant drew the blinds In the vb,n-

the living room, but the sight across
the valley was Of majesty SO terrific

Turning from the windows, Grant
left the blinds open. "Only cowardics

MINERAL MIXTURES

During the past winter the Iowa eI-

year-old steers weighing around $50
pounds to see If simple mineral mix

One lot of seven steers was fed
shelled corn, linseed oilmeal, corn sill
age and clover hay. Another lot of
seven steers received in addition to
the above, one ounce per head daily
Of mixture containing 1899 pounds
of high calcium limestone; 1899
pounds of spent boneblack and .O2
pound of potassium iodide. Still an
other lot, in addition to the standard
ration, received two ounces per head
daily of the following: high calcium
limestone, 24.99 pounds; spent bone.
black, 24.99 pounds; potassium iodide,
.O1 pound, and powdered sulphur, 80

The rfineral-fed lots showed a
