CLAGUE MAJORITY
WAS $3.50 IN DISTRICT

The race between Congressman
Frank Clague, Republican, and DR.. L.
A. Fritsche, Farmer-Labor candidate,
in the Second District was closer than
many observers prophesied, according
to the Brown County Journal. Con-
gresham Clague lead the new Ulm
candidate by majority of but $3.50,
out of a total vote of over 1000. The
Clague total vote was 38,427 and the
Fritsche vote was 33,088.
Congressman Clague carried all but
three counties in the district, but in
seven counties his majority was I'M
der 1000 and in four, less than 500.
His highest majority was in Blue
Earth, where it was 1857. The
smallest was in Mobiles, where he car
ried. it by but 234 ballots. In the re-
mainder of the counties, Clague car
ried, the majorities were: Cotton
wood, 994; Farbault, 1907; Martin,
1910; Murray, 247; Pipestone, $40;
Rock, 7O4; Redwood, 1874; and Waton-
wan, AL.
DR.. Fritsche had majority of
$500 in Brown county, which was the
largest majority either candidate had
in any county. He carried Jackson
by a majority of 123 and Lincoln
county by 96.

HOLE IN ROOF POOR
KENHOUSE VENTILATOR

Cutting hole in the roof is poor
way to ventilate the poultry building
because it allowes considerable heat
to escape, making the house cold,
says Prof. A. C. Smith, chief of the
poultry division at University Farm.
Running a shaft through the roof to
a point near the floor is also faulty
methods because much of the moist
ure will escape the shaft and accum-
ulate where the air is warmest.
The easiest and simplest method of
keeping the poultry house comfort
able with reference to temperature,
moisture and ventilation, Mr.. Smith
says, is to have it equipped with win
dows just like those used in dwell
ings, and then use the upper sash for
ventilating during extremely cold
weather. The sash may be dropped
any distance required by the condi-
ton of wind and weather, but it
should never be completely closed,
even on the coolest night.
There is no automatic system of
ventilation that will give complete
satisfaction, Mr.. Smith says. Any
system used will require adjustment
and sometimes this will have to be
given several times.

NIPPOLT is NEW BANK
PRESIDENT AT SPRINGFIELD

"At special meeting of the board
of directors of the State Bank of
Springfield, held Tuesday afternoon,
E. L. Nippolt was chosen member
of the board and president of the
bank to succeed the late VIM. G..
Frank and M. j. Foy was elected
cashier to take Mr.. Nippolt's place."
says the Springfield Advance-Press.
"The election of Mr.. Nippolt and
Mr.. Foy to places of greater respon-
sibility was in the nature of promo
ton and in recognition of many years
of efficient and faithful service to the
institution. Mr.. Nippolt came to the
bank in 1904 as assistant cashier af-
ter several years of experience in
other institutions. In 1915 he was
promoted to the position of cashier
at the time Mr.. Frank became the
banks president. Besides having a
thorough knowledge of the banking
business in all it's phases and branch
es, he posses the stability of charact-
er and that dependability which in
stills confidence and respect and his
elevation to the presidency of the
bank will insure that same careful
and wise administration of the banks
affairs which characterized the policy
of Mr.. Frank, in the execution of
which policy Mr.. Nippolt for years
has had an active and important
part"

HERE'S A "CORNLESS"
WINTER HEN RATION

Inquiries received by the poultry
husbandry division at University
Farm show that many poultrymen,
particularly in northern Minnesota,
are looking for rations requiring
minimum of high-priced corn and a
maximum of cheaper grains. Accord
ingly, F. B. HUT of the poultry staff
replies that it is quite possible to
make a satisfactory ration with no
corn whatever, provided that from 8
to 8 per cent of good alfalfa leaf
meal be included in the mash to sup
ply the valuable vitamin A, which is
not abundant in any farm grain ex-
cept yellow corn.
A very good low-priced winter ra-
ton can be made up of a grain mix
ture consisting of one-half wheat and
one-fourth each of oats and barley,
and mash prepared as follows:
ground wheat so parts, ground bar
ley 20, ground oat, 10, wheat midd-
lings, IA, meat scraps or fish meal 70,
alfalfa leaf meal 6 parts.
To this mash should be added a
good biologically-te cod liver oil
at the rate of one quart for each lou
pounds of mash, DIR. HUT says. Oy-
ster shell or ground limestone must
be supplied continuously or included
in the mash at level of 5 per cent.
Oats should not be used in the guam
titles given above unless they are well
filled, weighing around 3S pounds per
bushel. There is no need to buy al
falfa leaf meal if dry alfalfa hay car
be supplied continuously. Often the
barn floor will yield enough alalfs
leaves where the hay is thrown dowr
from the NOW to keep the flock sup
piled. Because of its high fiber con
tent, not more than per cent of al
falfa should be fed.
