01T1SEED FOR tEEFNTTLEFEB alue of Meal Recog nized by Agriculture a 1 Authorities for Some Time RICE WILL CONTINUE LOW rproducts Cheapened Because of Good Crop of Cotton in South and Cut ting Off of the European Mar kets Washington. D. C„ Oct. 9.- Re.ause the abundant suptplv of cottonseed eal that there is likeiv to be in this luntry this year, specialists in the partment believe that the farmer has better opportunity to make money by eding beef cattle than for some years tst. The feeling value of cottonseed eal has been recognized by agricul ral authorities for some time and rge quantities of it are exported an 'ally to Europe where the farmers. ; pp. ially those in Denmark, are also I vare of its usefulness. It now seems! tely that the price of cottonseed meal ill continue to be considerably lower an in recent years and the American rnier should therefore utilize it to ad int age to make cheap gains. Causes That Lower Price Two causes combine to lower the ■ice of cottonseed byproducts. In the t place the cotton crop in t.iie South lis year is good, and in the next rhe ireign markets have been seriously tert'ere.i with bv the Ku rope an war.! is estimate I this year 15,000,- 1 t>o bales of cotton will be produced in ie I'nited States. This should yield ,680,000 tons of seed. All of this, of iiirse. will not be crushed, but if last car's proportions hold good again lout 1',000,000 tons of cottonseed meal ; ill be available. Itton crop is larger than before, it is ife to assume that the quantity of cot-! in see, I meal on the home market will :■ 500,000 tons more than last year, his situation has alrea ly resulted n substantial drop in the price of cot- ' mseed byproducts. Cottonseed meal in now be bought in the South at rices ranging from $22 to $2 4 per ton stead of $27 to s3l demanded last 1 ear. An even greater doorcase has iken place in the price of cottonseed ulls, which are now selling at from 4.50 to $5.50 a ton instead of ST to 3 a ton. Cheaper Than Linseed Meal At these prices cottonseed meal is pproximately sls per ton cheaper than nseed meal, and in addition its feed lg value is a trifle higher. It seems bvious, therefore, that the cattle fee i r all over the country should utilize ottonseed meal to a far greater ex ; »pt than he has done in the past. This meal is very rich in protein, and is usually considered that its feeding 1 alue is at least twice that of corn. ! n other words one pound of cottonseed leal is equal to two pounds of corn or feeding cattle. A small portion of ottonseed meal has an even greater plative value where the ration would ! therwise be composed entirely of foe Is igh in carbohydrates, su 'h as corn, l nru stover and timothy hay. This is xtremely important to cattle feeders hroughont the corn belt and other ' tates where much corn is fed. Tn In iana for example, it was found that he addition of one pound of cotton seed meal to a ration of corn and •lover hay resulted in a saving of .37 founds of • orn and 1.41 pounds f clover hav. This means that if corn as worth "0 cents a bushel and clover ay sls a ton. each ton of cottonseed teal fed the cattle saved the farmer 55.40 worth of other feed, ith cot onseed meal at s'24 a ton this is a et saving of $31.40—a saving well forth while. Fed to Cattle in South As a matter of fact cottonseed meal as been the principal concentrate fed o cattle in the South for years. In xperiments conducted by tihe Bureau f Animal Industry t was found that fith this as t he only cbneentrated feed .ains could be made on steers very conomi ally. 350 pounds of meal often .reduced as nruch as 100 pounds of ;aiu. When fed .judiciously six pounds f cottonseed meal a day for a period f 100 to 120 days does not prove larmful to mature steers. If the steers - ,re to be fed for a longer period, how ver, the amount fed should not be nore t'han four pounds a day. For win ering cattle it is hard to tind a better r more economical ration and a little odder or stover. Mature cattle can be Wintered on a ration of thirty poun-ds It' silage, two pounds of cottonseed heal and about Ave pounds of some dry tough age. On such a ration steers will >ass through the winter in exceedingly food condition and even gain something n live weight. But in addition to its feeding value (lie fertilizing value of cottonseed meal s very high—so high indeed that often iho fertilizing constituents in the meal ire alone worth as much as or more - v - N Barking Throats; and October Colds They don't sound good—they don't feel good—and they have the whole winter before thein uuless broken up now by taking our Cough and Cold Remedy 250 Forney's Drug Store 42« MARKET STREET » ' ■ ■■■ ■ ' GLASS OF SALTS CLEANS KIDNEYS If Your Back Is Aching or Bladder Bothers, Drink Lots of Water and Eat Less Meat When your kidneys hurt and your back feels sore, don't get scared and proceed to load your stomach with a lot of drugs that excite the kidneys and irritate the entire urinary tract. Keep vour kidneys clean like you keel* vour bowels clean, by flushing them with a mild, harmless salts which re moves the body's urinous waste and stimulates them to their normal ac tivity. The function of the kidneys is to filter the blood. In 24 hours they strain from it 500 grains %f acid nnd waste, so we can readily understand the vital importance of keeping the kidneys active. Drink lots of water—you can't drink too much; also get from any pharmacist about four ounces of .'ad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morning for a few days and your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com bined with lithia, ami has been used for generations to clean and stimulate clogged kidneys; also to neutralize the acids in urine so it no longer is n source of irritation, thus ending blad- Ider weakness. .lad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in jure: makes a delightful effervescent I lithia-w ater drink which everyone j should take now and then to keep their ; kidneys clean ami active.

To put the case in an other way; When one includes in his i calculations the enrichment of the land he rinds that feeding cottonseed meal to cattle costs him only from ten to twenty percent, of the market price of the meal. Most Profitable Feed In view of these facts, specialists in . the department recommend cattle feed ers in all parts of the country to se cure prices on rottonseed byproducts and to take advantage of tlie .heap foods that they provide. No other form I of concentrated feed, the specialists say. will prove as profitable as eottonsee I ; meal this year. In the South the feed ers have an opportunity to get these-bv products at lower pri.es than at anv other time during the last ten years. Combined with farm-grown fee.lsi such as corn silage, thev#*hould be able to secure gains very cheaply, and with the present high prices for finished cattle, j make good profits. Incidentally it may be said that if such a movement tends to strengthen and steady the market tor cottonseed byproduct's, this will in itself be of considerable assistance 'o cotton growers in the South.

Not What She Expected He was n shv young man, but on j 'his way home from the city he man- 1 aged to screw up his courage sufficiently to enter a jeweler's shop and purchase a small gift for the lady of his heart. This, he hoped, would pave the way to the popping of the great question. That night he called at her house and found her alone. Producing a small, square box from his pocket, he said nervously: "1 have ventured to bring you a' small present, Miss Finn, but I am I afraid tlmt perhaps it will not tit your ! finger. Will you try it out" "Oh, (tear,'' said the girl, blushing j most becomingly. "This is qunite un expected. Why, 1 never dreamed that you really cared enough"— Poor fool!
