"When the price of grain per IOO
pounds is Sl.nO, 100 pounds of skimmilk as a supplement tocereals grains
for pigs', considered from tbe standpoint of food value, is worth 23 cents"
H. W. Norton, tbe investigator re-
Kennedy   Writes   Home,lP°rts     "If the grain is worth   sl.25 a
hundred, skimmilk is worth 35C: if
grain is wortn $1,50 p e r_| hacdre'1
pounds, ekimmilk is worth 42 cents,
and so on up in tbe same proportion.
"It has been found also in determining the reolacement value of
skimmilk as a supplement to corn
and other grnina tbat 9 pounds of
skimmilk are equivelant toone pound
of tankage; tbat 3.7 pounds of skimmilk are equivalent to one pound of
middling1-, and that 9 3 pounds of
skimmilk are equivalent to one pound
of oil meal.
j "Translated into money values,
i this means tbat if 100 pounds of
tankage is worth S2.00 skimmilk is
wor\b 2i cents a hundred, and upward in proportion as the price of
tankages increases. If 100 pounrle of
middlings ars worth $1 00, skimmilk
is worth 27 cents a hundred and upward in proportion as tbe price of
middlings increases, and if 100 pounds
of oil meal are worth $1.50, a

On tbe afternoon of the Third Day
the Imperial Russian Quartette will
render the full program and they
will also provide a musical prelude
for tbe evening* This clever groupe
of Slavic musicians will bring to life
the wierd and mystic music of tbe

Russian costumes, with bright red
jackets, they present a picture of
picturesqueness-and their performance on tbe Russian Balalaikas is one
feature of their program tbat is of
universal interest  wherever they go.

a complete double concert at night
and a marvelous musical prelude in
tbe afternoon. This is the surprise

familiar with the characteristics of
tbese birds tbat tbe experiment wili
prove a success. Eggs are being produced on a farm near Mason and
shipped around the state, the State
Game Warden and deputies looking
after tbe matter. The eggs of course
are batched by bens and wben the
young birds reach tbe proper age they

Already ten sittings or ISO eggs

birds wiil be protected from hunters
for a reasonable time until tbey become sufficiently nnnperous.

will of course be of interest to his I
friends bere:
A note to you to let you and the
Clare County folks know the whereabouts and welfare of two of the
boys tbat are proud to call that county their own. We arrived late in the
evening and walked a mile through
rain to tbe receiving office where we
weie assigned cur company and barracks. Next morning wc were shown
bow to police our quarters, which
means making up our bunks, dusting
the woodwork, mopping the floors,
sweepiug the streets, and in short
learning that cleanliness is next to
dicipline in tbis man's army. 1 believe I bave done more house-
cleaning tbis past week than some
women do in a year.
The food i 8 excellent—clean,
wholesome and all one wants of it.
All the training we get here is in tbe
"school of the soldier." From here
tbe boys are sent to various colleges
for special training. I may end up in
Fargo, S. I). Nothing is certain in
the army just now, except this, that
if all American soldiers show the
same enthusiasm aud "pep" tbat the
boys bere do, final victory is not far
off. and a clean, glorious victory it
will be.
I ask this means to send my re-
garde to all my friends in Ciare Co.
My message to you, tbe folks back
home, ie tbis. Be Americans al! tbe
way through. Let every word, every
thought, every action be for the support of tbe American army and tbe
war activities. Words cannot express what the Y. M. C. A. means to
tbe boys. Music, reading matter,
entertainment of all kinds, a smile
and a word of cheer are furnished by
the"Y." Support it to the limit of
your reecources, then borrow to
support it further. Let everyone
keep the winning of tbe war uppermost in tbeir minds. Your boy are
not failing you. See that you don't
fail them? Tbe day will tben soon
come wben we can all face home
again, proud of the victory we have
won and proud of you for the support you gave na.
