Read the Following from the Progressive Farmer: I
In traveling over the south it is gratifying to hear such an in
creasing number of farmers report that they are feeding two pounds
of cottonseed meal a day to cach horse and mule. This is both econo
mical and patriotic. It pays the farmer and also serves ttie nation by
releasing corn for human 'consumption. On this point some agricul
tural organizations of the south have printed and circulated thousands
of copies of the following statement by Hr. Talt Butler: _ w>f :J
“1 lu re jire in the eleven cotton states 6,500,000 horses and nudes.
It each of these were fed two pounds of cottonseed meal per day it , I
would release lour pounds of corn each day from the usual daily feed
of about 1 I pounds, and 200 days of such feeding to all horses and
mules would release 100.000,000 bushels of corn for human food—and
the mules and the horses would be benefitted by the change.
”1 pounds bf corn at *1.55 per bushel costs 11 cents,
‘*2 pounds of cottonseed meal at $10 per ton costs I cents.
’The feeder wotdd thus save 7 cents per day on each head of
stock, or a saving oj $1 I per head in a period of 2<K> days.”

I hope you will never disgrace yourself by any pro

Try to preserve a cheerful and contented spirit and
encourage it in others. Hear hardships without grum

oftener than to be brave.
