FEED IN ITS RELATION TO MILK PRODUCTION The progress made In the development of dairy eowe is indeed remarkable, and apparently there is no upward limit to what may be accomplished in this di rection. It has taken years of intelligent •Kort on the part t>f farmers and breed ers to develop animals capable of making , the remarkable records now so frequent ly met with, and which have become so common in fact as not to excite any de -1 tree of public comment. When we con- *■ elder that the cow in a state of nature seldom produces more than enough milk to nourish her calf, and compare this with what has been accomplished, we are bound to be impressed with the debt of gratitude we owe the development of wHaprifle principles as related to animal breeding and feeding. The knowledge of theee two subjects has made it possible for us to accomplish what has already been done, and of course, those who have studied the subject realise that only a good beginning in agricultural science has been made as yet. Just think of a cow which has given as much as US * pounds of milk in a day and produced over S.OOO pounds of this highly nourishing and delightful beverage in one year. One would suppose that the limit of possible production had been reached in such an animal, but it appears now that the very cow that made this record is being surpassed by one of her daughters which has already given near ly 17.000 pounds of milk and made over pounds of butter in a period of six months. This cow is giving 86 pounds of milk a day and now starting on her seventh month of continuous production, and bids fair, therefore, to beat the world’s record of Tt.CS pounds of milk in • year. Thia result, as already pointed out. has been brought about by two fac tors in the hands of skillful and capable men—a fundamental insight into and in terpretation of the elementary principles of breeding, and a thorough grasp of the best methods of combining and utilising the natural foodstuffs available for the manufacture through the highly organis ed dairy cow of milk and butter. What should such a cow be fed? First of all. the production of milk depends on a highly organised nervous system. The fat In milk is produced by the growth and atrophy, as it were, of millions of fat globules in the ultimate cells of the udder. The other constituents of milk are formed directly and indirectly from ihe blood which has of necessity receiv ed its surplus of nutriment from the food consumed, digested and assimilated by the cow. It is Impossible for the eow to make rich milk and to elaborate it In large quantities unless she is properly fed. The reasons for this are perfectly obvious, and therefore bring us down to | a considerable finally, of what the cow needs and how best to combine the foods to stimulate the production of milk and butter fat. An analysis of milk shows that it con stats largely of grater, and it has been proven that succulent food, either grass ST substances therefor, should consu late the basis of any ration for a dairy sow. She will give a larger quantity of milk for a longer time when this is lone than if she is fed exclusively on Iry feed. It appears also that milk -on tains large quantities of protein, and since the cow is capable of manufactur ing milk because of her highly organised and sensible nervous system, she must be fed abundantly on this element. To withhold it will result in a great reduc tion in the flow of milk, and will cause her to ultimately dry up. This is one fact which has been established beyond the point of controversy. From what sources shall the protein be derived? There are many food stuffs which may be used, but the farmer is seeking for the one which is cheapest and will furnish him the largest quantity of this constituent at the lowest relative cost. He may use, tor Instance, wheat bran. oats, beet pulp, gluten meal or cotton seed meal. The question now arises as to which is ths cheapet and most desirable. This is not difficult to solve, for everyone who has had experience in feeding cot ton seed meal realises that this con centrate furnishes the protein in the cheapest form and in larger amount than any of the others. It is true that it should be fed to secure the beat results in association with grass or silage, but in the absence of these, hulls and mixed hay and other dry forms of roughness may be used for considerable periods of time with ad vantage. It is true that if some bran . or corn la.dnfb wlth cotton seed meal that rood results may be anticipated for a 7 long period of time, but where the meal alone is fed under the con ditions mentioned in proper amounts it furnishes an almost ideal ration. We have known cows to be fed on cotton seed meal, silage, hulls and good pasture grass for several years and remain in perfect health, while producing large quantities of milk rich tn butter fat. The remarkable cow referred to in the early part of this article has been fed what is known as a balanced ration. In the absence of the balanced ration her powers to yield would be seriously impaired, i I There are thousands of persons in Georgia and throughout the south who maintain cows on their lots or on their farms. They are failing to se *. rure the best returns from them though they are often feeding very costly rations. The trouble they ex perience is due to the fact that they are often not feeding enough protein or securing it from the most economi es! source possible. The writer knows plenty of farmers who are still feed ing corn or corn and bran when cot ton seed meal furnishes the needed protein at a much lower cost and will prove more satisfactory In a ration for cows than corn or corn and bran. If only one concentrate is to be fed. ft is infinitely better to feed cotton peed meal at the rate of from 5 to 6 pounds per 1,000-pound cow when giv ing two gallons of milk per day. Those who have not fed cotton seed meal or who are not combining it with the other concentrates ordinarily used in the maintenance of cows are making a mistake for they are falling to sup ply tho adequate amount of protein to ptlmulate the flow of milk to the highet degree while reducing the cost to a minimum. • • • PROTECTING HOGS FROM CHOLERA W. W. W. writes: Will you please tell me what to do for my hogs? They are sick and are dying with the cholera. Any information for a remedy will be appreciated. Your letter in regard to hog cholera has been received. We are now manu facturing the serum at the college, but the state law. a copy of which I hope you will secure for your information, makes it mandatory on us to distribute the serum solely on the order of the state veterinarian. Dr. P. F. Bahnsen. whose headquarters are at the oapttol building. Atlanta, Ga. If you apply to Dr. Bahnsen and he instructs us to send the serum to you. we will do so by ex press C. O. D. The law authorising the manufacture of the serum state* that the work shall be made as nearly eelf sustaining as possible. On that account, it is necessary for us to charge 2 l-2c a c. c. The average dose for 100-pound hog is 30 c. c.. or from 60c to 76c. This is much les* than you would be requir ed to pay for the commercial serum, and if that which we are sending out is properly used and given time, it will prove effective in saving the lives of most of the animals treated. Os course, when cholera has made great progress in a herd, and ha* beevome epidemic and established in a chronic form, the chances are that the serum will not prove altogether satisfactory, since the serum is a preventive and not a cura tive method of treating the disease. I trust you will communicate with Dr. Bahnsen promptly, as we shall be glad to serve you in this matter, but. of course must be governed tn our action by the law passed by the last legisla ture. • • • TREATMENT OF A SORE DEO. A. B. S. writes: I have a mule colt two years old. and about three weeks ago a knot about thes ise of an egg came on his leg near his ankle. It is raw and looks Uke a wart. If you can tell me what to do for It plase let me know in the next Journal. You had best remove the shoe and poultice the affected parts for two days. If evidence* of pus appear, open the swelling and inject pure tincture of iodine twice a week. Wash out every other day with warm water to which has been added a mild disinfectant such as creolin in the pro portion of one part to fifty parts of water. Keep the affected parts clean and a cur* should result In a short time unless the trouble is due to some organic de ca ngem net of the system or to some other cause than you have mentioned in your letter. • • • CHUFAB DIFFICULT TO ERADICATE W. M writes: I was about to plant some chufaa on my farm for hog feed when a neighbor advised me against it, • tating that if I should fail to pasture sufficient hogs to eat up each and every tuber I would find my field stocked with nut grass after the second year. Will you kindly answer through The Journal ta this a fact Chufaa are only valuable as a graving crop for hogs, and they are hard to con trol and eradicate once they become well established. You should therefore exercise good judgment before planting something that is likely-to infest your land and prove difficult to control. You can use other crops, without danger,-,to equal advan tage. Try cowpeas, soybean* and other legume and cereal*. We have found .hem very satisfactory and recommend tnem. BUILDING A SUITABLE HAY BARN. K. D. 8., Penfield. Ga., writes: Can you give me a good plan for a cheap hay barn to hold from 50 to 75 tons of Ber muda hay. There will probably not be more than half of this amount unbaled in the barn at one time. You can build a very cheap structure for housing hay effectively in the fol lowing manner: If there are any locust trees on your place cut poles from them 15 feet in height. Square them and set on a concrete base, which is raised above the ground about one foot This prevents the decay of tha posts at the bottom. In the Absence of locust you may use either cedar or pine. The shed may be left open on four sides. You can cover the roof with tar paper or some of the specialised roofing mate rials now on the market. You will find a galvanised iron roof a very cheap and economical form of covering to use. Shingles will, of course, have a greater permanency than any of the other materials and if you oan buy them at a reasonable cost and put them on with farm tabor, they are probably the most satisfactory thing you can use. A shed constructed and roofed after this fashion if properly braced from the sides and tied together with plates and cross timbers, makes a most economical plae for the storage of hay. If you build the structure somewhat higher it is possible to use a hay fork in handling, the crop, though as you can put so much of the hay in from th* side it is not so necessary to have a fork. Where you want a structure with stables under neath and storage space above, a much more elaborate plan would be necessary, and it would also add much to the cost A shed 60 feet long and 30 feet wide and 15 feet high will easily hold 75 tons of hay. If desirable you might build a barn 100 feet long. 80 feet wide, with posts 10 feet high, as this type of structure will hold 75 tons of hay. A ton of loose hay occupies about 400 cubic feet of space. e * * COTTON SEED MEAL FOR POULTRY. A W. M, Watkinsville, Ga.. writes: What do you think of cotton seed meal mixed with corn meal aa a feed for poultry? If you approve of it aa a feed, what quantity should b* fed? Can you suggest a tonic that will increase the breeding desire of a sluggish male? Cotton seed meal is not considered a desirable food for poultry when fed in any considerable quantities. This at least seems to be the testimony of those who have experimented with it It may, however, be fed in small quantities without apparent Injury. Probably not over a spoonful or two per day should be mixed with the food Intended for from 12 to 16 laying hens. Most peo ple do not realize the nature of this concentrated foodstuff, and are inclined to use more than 1* really needed to secure the best results. Cotton seed meal ranks very high as a carrier of pro tein, but experienced poultrymen seem to be of the opinion that better results will follow the use of meat meal or some animal product as a source of a good part of the protein needed for chickens. Tonics are not so very desir able for the purpose you mention. Good wholesome food with plenty of exercise are the best things to employ for the end you have in view with a good sup ply of green feed. * * * DESTROYING BMUT IN WHEAT. A. S„ Cumming.

BOYS' CORN CLUBS PROMISE GOOD CROPS District Agent James Is Visit ing the Various Farms of the State (Special Dispatch to he Journal.) HAWKINSVILLE, Ga., Aug. 24—Mr. C. M. James, district agent for the Boys' Corn clubs, is now in Pulaski county in the interest of the club here. For two weeks Mr. James has been on a tour of inspection in order to get some idea of the results which may be expected from the acres of the boys enrolled. On account of the excessive spring rains some boys did not plant their corn, but a large per cent planted and will make a good showing this fall. In Muscogee county, Edwin Alford, Bryant Waller. John T, Miller David and Gary Cody, Frank and Carlton Da vid have good crops of corn. In Taylor county. Clarence Horton, Paul Montgomery, Herbert Fuller, Wil lie and Lonnie Pierce, Hoke Smith Byrd. Harry Thornton, William ani Clifford Whatley T. L. Fountain. Leon ard James, J. A. Matthews, Jr„ and G. G. Matthews are the boys who** crops were seen. In Dooly county, Donald Shell, Er nest Truluck, Elmer Arnold, -.upert Lupo, W. T. Potter, Garrett Leaptrot are boys who are contesting and whose crops were seen. In Crisp county, Claude Bennett and Anderson Clack have the only two acres seen; there are, however, many other good acres in this county. In Wilcox county the acres of Hu bert Odum. W. Keen, Dennis Allen. Paul Conner, Harold Pendegrass were seen. In Pulaski county, Henry Farr, John R. Watkins, Willie Lewis, J. H. Vaughn and B. B. Vaughn have good corn. HUMAN ARSENALS ARE JAILED IN SAN DIEGO (By Associated Frees.) SAN DIEGO, Cal., Aug. 28.—Six men equipped with eight rifles, two carbines, 1,000 rounds of ammunition and eight empty bombshells, were arrested by po lice last night at El Cajon, a suburb and are in jail here. El Cajon is only a few miles from the Mexican line and word bad been sent to the commandant at Fort Rosecrans. that the six men probably Intended crossing into lower California to take a hand in the Mexican revolution. San D<ego police, however, fearing that thek presence meant a recrudescence of the trouble resulting from the attempt sev eral months ago to expel industrial work ers of the world from this city did not wait for the military officials to act. Two of the men arrested had figured in the industrial workers' campaign in San Diego. cent of the wheat I will have to seed the land to spring oats in order to get something out of the guano. What do you think was the troubl*? It is very surprising that formalin properly used should injure the germi nation of wheat as it is a standard rem edy and has been used on the college farm for a number of year* with suc cess. It is so extensively used that some mistake in it* application was cer tainly made or it would not have affect ed the germination of your wheat The correct method of using formaldehyde for the treatment of smut is as follows: Take one pound of formalin (the trade name for a 40 per cent solution of for maldehyde) and dilute it with 50 gallons of water. Each bushel of grain r'quires about one gallon of the solution. The wheat to be treated should be piled upon a floor, and stirred while the solution is being sprinkled over it. Continue more of the solution than is necessary to do this is injurious. The seed should then be dried. This method is not suc cessful with formalin that is not a 40 per cent solution, and since this material rapidly loses its strength It should be tightly corked. If you do not follow the direction* indicated in this letter with the utmost care or uae a solution about the strength indicated, or leave the grain exposed to the treatment for an unnecessary length of time, your wheat may be Injured. We have had such large experience with formalin for the destruction of smut, that we can positively say it will do the work satis factorily if properly handled. ••• - , TREATED VERSUS UNTREATED ROCKS. T. S. J., Jefferson, Ga., writes: I would like to have your opinion in re gard to the relative efficiency of ground phosphate rock and acid phos phate for Georgia soils. There is much to be said in favor of the use of finely ground phosphate bearing rock. In a trial made on the college farm last year an area of land was divided into six plats. On half of these plats no lime was applied and on the other half 8,000 pounds of caustic lime was applied per acre. On the plat on which no lime and no fertilizer was applied the yield of corn was 13 bush els; where 400 pounds of foats was applied the yield became 35.8 bushels; and where 400 pounds of acid phos phate was applied the yield became 38 bushels. On the section to which lime was applied at the rate of 2,000 pounds per acre with no fertiliser the yield was 46 bushels; with 400 pounds of I floats the yield was 57.5 bushel: and with 400 pounds of acid phosphate ■ the yield was 51.31 bushela You wil? thus see that th* us* of lime gave a substantial increase. At the same time the relative increase from the use of floats and acid phosphate was vir tually th* same. This soil would not be regarded as in the best physical condition or high in its content of veg etable matter. Seasonal conditions, however, may have affected the yields very materially, and it would not be wise to conclude from this one test that it would be advisable to use the phosphate rock in preference to the acid There is much diver sity of opinion on this subject. It would appear, however, that most per sons who have studied the question seen to favor the use of the acid phos phate on soil* which are low in vege table matter. On the other hand the finely ground rock seems to be giving good results on soils which are well supplied with vegetable matter. As our soils in Georgia can not be re garded as high in nitrogen and vege table matter w« think it problematical yet as to whether the phosphate rock should be used in any considerable quantities save on farm* where crop rotations have been pursued for some years past. I wish I could give you a more posi tive statement concerning this matter, but think we must regard this whole problem as still unsettled until fur ther experimental data which we hope to secure from our demonstration field and from the test plate which we ex pect to establish in various parts .of Georgia aid us in reaching a more it isfactory conclusion of this important problem. HIM. J. BUYER PLOWS CIN TEAR OP THE DIRT Patent Office Rules That Knox ville Man’s Name Can Stand (By Associated Press.) KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Aug. 24.—The patent office commissioner at Washing ton today decided that the William J. Oliver Manufacturing company, of Knoxville, has a legal right to use the name of “William J. Oliver" on its plows and that its trade mark shall be regis tered. This is a final decision in a pat ent office trade mark case instituted about five years ago by the Oliver Chil led Plow Works, of South Bend, Ind., against the William J. Oliver Manufac turing company, of Knoxville. The South Bend company contended that the Knoxville company’s trade mark should be abandoned because of the similarity suggested in the use of the name “Olive.." The examiner, before whom the case was first presented, decided against the William J. Oliver Manufacturing com pany and refused to register its trade mark. WM. J. FLYNN’S HOUSE LOOTED BY ROBBERS (By Associated Press.) NEW YORK, Aug. 23—It became known today that the uptown home of William J.

TUFT SIGNS CANAL BILL; 1 ADVISES EXPLANATION Foreign Powers Should Be Put on Notice of United States’ Policy WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.—President Taft signed the Panama canal bill at 7:10 o’clock tonight. Following this he sent to congress a memorandum sug gesting the advisability of the passage of a resolution which would declare that this measure was not considered by this government a violation of the treaty provisions regarding the canal. In discussing the British protest Mr. Taft says that the irresistible conclusion to be drawn from it is that “although the United States owns, controls and has paid for the canal, it is restricted by treaty from aiding its own commerce in the way that all the other nations of the world may freely do.” “In view of the facts,” Mr. Taft con tinues, “that the Panama canal is be ing constructed by the United States wholly at its own cost, upon territory ceded to it by the republic of Panama for that purpose and that unless it has restricted itself, the United States en joys absolute rights of ownership and control, including the right to allow its own commerce the use of the canal upori such terms as it sees fit, the sole ques tion is: Has the United States (by the terms of the Hay-Pauncefote treaty) deprived itself of the exercise of the right to pass its own commerce free or to remit tolls collected for the use of the canal?” The president points out that the rules specified in the article of the treaty which is made the basis for the British protest were adopted by the United States as the “basis of the neu tralization of the canal and for no othe* purpose.” This article, he further says, “is a .declaration of policy by the United States that the canal shall be neutral, that the attitude of this government toward the commerce of the world is that all nations will be treated alike and no discrimination made by the United States against any one of them observing rules adopted by the United States. In other words, it was a condi tional favored nation treatment, the measure of which is not what the coun try to give its own nation, but the treatment it extends to other nationa “Thus it is seen that the rules are but the basis of neutralization intend ed to effect the neutrality which the United States was willing should be the character of the canal and not in tended to limit or hamper the United States in the exercise of its sovereign power to deal with its own commerce, using its own canal in whatsoever man ner it saw fit” The president argues that if there is nothing in the Hay-Pauncefote treaty preventing Great Britain and other na tions from extending favors to their .shipping using the canal, and if there Is nothing that gives the United States any supervision over or right to com plain of such action, “then the British protest leads to the absurd conclusion that this government in constructing the canal, finds itself shorn of its right to deal with its own commerce in it* own way while all other nations using the canal in competition with Ameri can commerce enjoy that right and power unimpaired. “The British protest therefore is a proposal to read into the treaty a sur render by the Untied States of its right to regulate- its own commerce, a right which neither Great Britain herself or any other nation that may use the ca nal has surrendered or proposes to sur render.” The president dissents from th* view that permission to register foreign built vessels as vessels of the United States for foreign trade and the admis sion without duty of ship materials wil’ interfere with ’the shipbuilding Inter ests of the United States. He approves the amendment of the interstate com merce act, whereby railroad companiee are forbidden to own or control ships operated through the canal. He also approves the provision which prevents the owner of any steamship who is guilty of violating the anti-trust taw from using the canal.

MEMPHIS, Tenn., Aug. 33.—His desire for adventure, made keener by a glowing word picture of scene* “where the white lights shine” downtown in Memphis, Henry Page, 18, who says his home is in Paducah, Ky.. according to his al leged confession to the police, harkened to the voice of a newly found friend, and made way with his employer’s hors* and a half dozen chickens. The chickens were easily disposed of, but sale of a handsome young gray mare was quite different. Finally, the animal was turned over to a Memphis trader for 865, of which 815 was in cash, the remainder be ing a due bill. When the 815 dwindled to 10 cents, young Page i* said to have re lated to the authorities, he used the dime for street car fare to the end of a suburban line, thence walking to the home of hi* employer, who had been away from home, and arriving before the employer’s return. The horse was easly found, young Page then made his al leged confession and the police are now searching the town haunts of the boy who tempted the younk Kentuckian.
