Potatoes Particularly
Valuable for Fattening

Potatoes are particularly valuable
for fattening pigs" says Austin A.
Dowell, livestock extension specialist
with the University of Minnesota.
'"They should be cooked. the water
discarded, then mixed with grain at
the rate Of three parts potatoes to one
part of the concentrates. Prepared in
this way they may be fed literally to
fatten pigs or sows with litters. Raw
potatoes may be fed In limited quanti-
ties to mature and idle brood sows II
fed to pregnant sows, they should be
cooked and fed in relatively small
quantities"
Mr.. Dowell says that raw potatoes
are often readily eaten by cattle.
horses and sheep. Fed In large guam
titles to dairy cattle they are likely to
taint the milk and produce white
salve-like butter. Another reason why
potatoes should not be fed too freely,
says Mr.. Dowell, Is because they con-
tain poisonous material called solan-
Inc. The sprouts carry this substance
In relatively large quantities and

broken In her, something that had held
her down through all those years Of
struggle.
She knew now that the most price

Frantic applause followed the fall

alone outside the tent, heard her name

Over her were the tropic stars. on

in the boat sat the Man.

indifference does not exist. The ma

the progress of events abroad and has
given many evidences Of readiness

Our people have naturally been re-

trusts, their persistence in prepara-

destructive political and financial
policies Such policies have so weak
ened the credit of some of the con-
