Beauties of Nature

1t may be observed that what we
call beauty of nature Is mainly mega
tive beauty; that Is, the mass, the
huge rude background, made up Of
rocks, trees, hills, mountains, plains,
water, has not beauty as a positive
character, visible to all eyes, but af-

beauty, namely. health. strength, fit

How He Accomplished II

Sir Eric Geddes once remarked that
before doubling any statement man
may make, no matter how seemingly
incredible it sounds, one should be
quite sure as to It's precise meaning.
In order to illustrate his contention
he went on to instance the case of a
friend of his who knew little about
billiards and chess, and who told him
enc day that he had beaten the anna
teur champions of England at both
games
Sir Eric expressed great surprise
and some incredulity, but the other
persisted that his statement was quite
true.

RAW AND COOKED sPUDs FOR
cows AND HOGS

What's to be done with the hun
dreds of bushels of potatoes in the
Badger farmer cellars? This is the
question confronting scores of potato
growers throughout Wisconsin.
Dairy cows may be fed potatoes sat
sfactorily. A heavy allowance of pota
.oes produces milk of rather poor qua
ty, but potatoes can be used with
juccess when not over 33 pounds
looked potatoes, declares F. B. Nor
ison of the department of animal hui
)andry, Wisconsin College of Agricul
ule. Trials have shown that the fee6
ng value of potatoes for the dairy
cow is as much per ton as corn silage
Estimating silage at SIS the ton, OF
me fourth cent per pound, potatoes
would be worth Is cents bushel az
a feed.
Hogs, also, respond in fair degree
TO potatoes. 1t is advisable to cool
he potatoes first as considerably
higher feeding value is obtained. Raw
potatoes yield but two thirds the value
as that of the cooked potatoes. Ii
rails made at the Wisconsin Expert
ment station by w. A. Henry, 442
pounds of potatoes were required tc
AXE the place of 100 pounds
ground corn. When using this partic
liar crop as feed, concentrate
such as grain, should be used A NOR
balanced ration is obtained by so d.
ing.
The heavy feeding of raw potatoe
is not advi-ab as it is apt to cause
scours, but they may be fed in lin
ted amounts SLICED, and mixed with
dry feed, continues Morrison. The
bitter tasting water in which potatoes
are cooked should be thrown away
especially if the potatoes are not
sound.
A place for the extra supply of pc
tatoes now on hand is what is needed
The COW and hog may be an es -ential
factor in aiding to solve this que
ton. Let these animals do their share
in reducing the surplus.

mate, and will find himself stimulated
to tackle the mass of documents and
correspondence that will be brought to
his attention here. For, with the set
ting up of executive offices at Lynn
about four miles from the President S
home, the facilities for running the
Government of the United States are
just as complete as they are in the
White House study.
Telegraph and telephone are handy,
in fact, everybody except the heads
of the Government departments, with
whom personal conferences will nee
essarily be missed. Mr.. Coolidge ex-
poets, however, to send for a number
of officials and will have several visits
from Gen. Lord, director of the bud

Courtesy Calls.
There will be courtesy calls from
nearby officials, as, for instance, Gov
Fuller of Massachusetts, and Vice Pres
ident Dawes, who happens to be in
the vicinity. Senator Butler of Mas
sachusetts, chairman of the Republi-
can national committee. spent part of
the first day with the President, and
will be handy If the President wants
him.
Some people think Mr.. Coolidge will
actually get more work done here than
in Washington, because he will have
more time for meditation and reading
than he does in the National Capital,
and that important decisions of policy
will be forthcoming internationally
during the Summer. Mr.. Coolidge
may visit his fathers home at Ply
mouth, VT, for a few days and posi-
bly, may accept an invitation to speak

held in Portland, Me-, though this is
still undecided.
Mr.. Coolidge appears happy here
and more like a man who is buckling
down to a new task than one who is
forsaking a wearisome routine. He is
back among friends who respect and
admire him. The very air is to him
a familiar friend.
