Farmers Pay Check Cut
DoaUn BY waste in Feed.

Wasteful feeding, rather than cost
of feed, is limiting the profit in dairy
ing and poultry raising. according to
the Larrowe Institute of Animal
Economics. Feed a good feed but
don't waste it," is the slogan suggested
for the dairyman or poultryman who
would go forward in his business,
rather than backwards.
IAN investigation of the farmers
feeding problems has shown that there
is a lamentable waste Of good feed 60
ing on in nearly every barn in the
country" the Institute states. "The
same dairyman or poultryman who
complains about difference of five
cents sack between two feeds, will
waste many times that amount through
his methods of feeding.
Here is typical illustration. If a
farmer is feeding 20 cows 10 pounds

THE FIGHT GAME FROM

Perhaps one of the greatest

and manager of Jack Dempsey

While written primarily as ar
answer to Dempsey's recent state

account of Kearns' own picturesque
career. Pugilist dier-of-fortune

boy. and finally promoter and man
ager for one OF the greatest fighters
of all time-such are the varied
uaths which he has followed in his
quest for money and excitement.
Some of the stories he tells anc
some of the disclosures he makes
cause one fairly to gasp. He rips
the fight game wide open When he
fixed the 'weighing-in" scales with
silver dollars and chewing gum, he
eandidly admits it. He doesn't
even shirk the telling of fighting
with fists so heavily loaded with
lead that they made bumps stick out
like horns on whomever they hit.

Of food apiece day, he requires 200
pounds of feed. And if feed costs him
2A cents per pound, his daily cost of
feed is $3.50. But if instead of feed
ing each cow exactly 10 pounds per
day, he guesses at the weight by the
scoop-shovel methods, he is likely to
give the 20 cows $50 pounds, or 1914
pounds apiece, and his feed bill be-
comes $6.S7 instead of $3.50 Now,
supposing that at this rate of cost the
iairyman finds his operations are not
sufficiently profitable, the first thought
to come into his mind is to buy a
cheaper feed. So instead of buying
a feed that costs him $275 sack. or
$500 a ton, he buys a feed that costs
only 1928 or $4,000 a ton. He then

Wisdom, from Bases Lips

AS a child of three Wolfgang Mo
zart's wonderful playing on the hurpsi-
chord was the talk of Salzburg. He
was only four years old when he com
posed a concerto so difficult that even
his father, one of the most skilled
violinists in Germany, could not play
it. "Of course" said the infant
prodigy, 'no one can be expected to
play it without diligent practice" A
year later, when Wolfgang was only
five years old, he was invited to give
a recital in the hall of the university,
when the magic of his tiny fingers
worked his auditors to a pitch of the
widest enthusiasm.

proceeds to feed his cows $50 pounds
a day by the guess-the-weight method
and his feed bill is 1892 per day. This
is more than the good feed would have
cost If properly used, and the cows,
getting the lower grade of feed, fall
off in milk production, so that the
farmer can't save on the feed bill
enough to overcome the loss on his
milk check. This should prove to any
dsiryman that it is more profitable to
feed 200 pounds of good feed at
daily cost of $3.50 and get $500
worth of milk, than to feed $50 pounds
of cheaper grade at $500 and get only
$1,000 or $1,000 worth of milk

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Dec. % (By
Associated Press)- Senator Burton
K. Wheeler Of Montana today won
his long fight to have all charges
brought against him by the govern

dicted jointly with him.. The three
