"The Passinf of the Prairies"
By the Tribune Poet in answer to J. W
Foley.
It is true they've plowed the prairie-har
rowed it and seeded, too.
And they've chased the sneaking coyote
back entirely out of view
Covered it with sleek, fat cattle where the
bison used to roam—
Where yon fellows built a campfire.
there's a farmer with a home:
Where the antelope were feeding and the
timid deer were seen.
They have changed the bare brown prair
ie to a sea of waving grain.
Where the buffalo was ruler--the buffalo
and you—
They have built a thriving creamery and
put up a school house, too,
.And from every nook and corner of that
"echoed void" you knew
There's the ring of manly labor with
sure results in view.
For your "blight of man" is on it and the
endless acres yield
As the good Lord intended, tor they're
now a harvest field.
And the West you thot worth knowing you
shall never know again,
For it's filling up with workers—with a
sturdy race of men—
Who are building up an empire with the
plowshare and the flail,
And the railroads and the autos need a
different sort of trail.
And they're shutting out the lawless and
the reckless life you led:
For they know the world is filling up
with mouths that must be fed.
But they've not shut out the sunshine nor
silenced any hymn—
Only made it clearer, louder, more ac
ceptable to Him.
The sunsets still are splendid and the
breezes free and pure,
Tho old Judge Lynch has left us and
life is safe and sure.
So you saddle up your bronko and keep
riding on and on—
For they're cutting out the useless and
you're day out here is gone.—Terry
Tribune.
NOTE8 ON FEEDING.
Values of Different Foods and
8hould Be Fed.
While sorghum fodder is much rel
ished by cows still it will not com
pare with clover hay. The former
contains but 1.5 pounds of protein to
100 pounds, the latter 6.8.
Skim milk, when not .diluted with
water, has a very narrow nutritive
ratio. It should not be used as an
exclusive diet for the brood sows, or,
as for that matter, swine of any
kind.
Oats at say, 35 cents per bushel,
cost more after grinding than bran
at $23 per ton, though they dre not
worth more for feeding purposes.
They would, however, be a good com
bination with one-third peas.
Mixing corn and oats in equal parts,
feeding fresh cows about eight pounds
per day. with ail the hay each can
eat, and a mess of roots two or
three times a week make a good ra
tion.
No one would expect to keep up a
hardworking horse on cornstalks or
oat straw. The milking oow expends
energy just as certainly as a horse
that is working. Wherefore though
she may relish a little straw and the
like now and then, she should not
be compelled to seek such material
for maintenance or for the producUon
of milk and butter.
A WOODEN GUTTER.
How Most Serviceable One Can
Constructed in Cow Stall.

The general plan is brought out in

ing floor for (he cows is shown at
left. Back of this Is 16-inch gutter
eight inches deep. To the extreme
right Is the floor of the alleyway.
The gutter is made by framing sides
and bottom supports are every three
feet at sides. Inside of the frame
work, including bottom, the ceiling
is made of 2-inch matched stuff, care
fully planed and pointed so as to not
interfere with the* work of the stable
men. When one desires a wooden
gutter this plan is said to work
satisfactorily.
