Study Effect Of Size
on Feeding Ability

TWO-HUNDRED and Lightweight
Hereford steer calves were recently
sorted and shipped from Sheridan,
Wyo., for a new experimental feed
ing project in which the Kansas,
Oklahoma and Ohio experiment sta
tons are cooperating.
Each station received SO calves
which were secured from the Bar
Is ranch, PIX ranch, and 0. M. Wal
lop from near Sheridan, and M. c,
Simpson, Volborg, Mont. The calves
were chosen as a result of earlier
inspections on the basis of large,
medium and small size breeding ant
mails in the herds from which they
came. The calves of large size aver
aged 40 pounds, medium size, Az
pounds, and the small size, 1896
pounds in weaving weights.
Each of the three experiment sta
tons will conduct the same type OF
test in which calves of small, medium
and large sizes will be compared in
three distinct beef production Sys-
TENS. The group l calves, including
10 small, 10 medium and 10 large
individuals will be fulfilled for 225
days, then marketed and slaughtered
and carcass data secured.
Group 2 including the same num-
Der of each size of calves, will be
rough-wintered on a silage and light
grain ration, grazed 100 days, full
fed 100 days and marketed; after
which slaughter and carcass data will
be secured.
Group g., also including 10 small,
10 medium and 10 large calves, will
be rough-wintered, grazed through
out the following summer, rough
wintered the second winter, and
grazed the second summer.

In May, Of 1880, q Major Har-
row made arrangements to import
80 colored servants from the
South to be employed in his hotel
at Lake MinnetonlKa- They were
considered some Of the best and
most courteous servants who had
worked In the hotel
In 1855, q small group of
Negroes came here seeking en-
plOyment. They were BlalLley
Durant, Thomas A. jackson,
Robert Bruce, Joseph FarT and
J. X. Hyland. Most Of these men
eventually owned their own
barbershops or worked a. POr-
tiers and stewards.
In 1885, julius Todd was
brought TO Minnesota by the 9th
regiment Of Minnesota, and was
mustered out with q number Of
soldiers.
Almost from the beginning,
Negroes, because they were kept
very much to themselves, formed
their own organizations, their own
churches, and eventually began to
settle in one section Of the city.
This, in a way, kept them separ-
ate from their new neighbors, who
treated them kindly, some with
understanding, some with curio-
sity and some with indifference.
CHURCH FORMED
Their first church was the PHI
grim Baptist, founded in 1858 by
Hickman, Of the original group on
the War Eagle.
The church grew rapidly, and
was the center Of much activity
among Negroes. There they had
pageants, plays, concerts, their
clubs and other meetings. In this
way, Pilgrim Baptist served a. .
combination church and commIn-
ity center.

Immediately after the suffrage
bill was passed, both political
parties began to vie for the
Negro vote. Suddenly they realiz-
ed that here was potential power
that had been right under their
noses all along. II would be sheer
slaughter to one If the other were
able to spirit this power away.
Swallowing whatever objections
they might have had over the pas
sage Of the Negro suffrage
amendment, they devoted their ef-
forts to propagandlEing the new
voters to their side Of the fence.
The Republicans were loudest
