During the hot weather of the sum mer months some member of almost every family is likely to be troubled with an unnatural looseness of the bowels, and it is of the greatest im portance that he be treated promptly.' which can only be done when the med icine is kept at hand. Mrs. F. F. Scott. Scottsville, N. Y., states. "I first used Chamberlain’s Colic and Diarrhoea Remedy as much as five years ago. ! At that time I had a severe attack of : summer complaint and was suffering intense pain. One dose relieved me. Other members of my family have since used it with like results. Mr. and Mrs. O. A. Woods and daugh ter, Minnie, Miss Neta Cranor and Mrs. D M. Moods autoed to Dannebrog, Wednesday to attend the wedding of a relative. A large number of people from Ans ley. Broken Bow and other places spent Sunday at Jenner’s Park. About fifty autos were required to carry the pic nickers. SALT FOR CATTLE. IKtUon&l Crop Improvement Service ] Professor Henry says that a cow requires three-quarters of an ounce per day per 1000 lbs. of weight and six-tenths of an ounce per day per 20 lbs. milk. Therefore, a cow which weighB 1200 lbs. and gives 30 lbs. milk should have 1.8 ounce salt. It must be remembered, however, that salt is generally Included In high-grade dairy feeds: It is well to give cows access to extra salt. They will take what their roughage demands. THE PRICE OF FEED. (National Crop Impro»«m«nt SerCce ] Feed is handled on a smaller mar gin than coal, ton for ton. The retail feed dealer who buys in carload lots can sell as cheap as the manufacturer can in less-than-carload lots, the dif ference in freight rates being the dealer’s gross profit. In nearly every instance, a group of farmers can or der their feed, through a dealer, in carloads and make a material saving. The difference in freight alone will •ho«t a good profit. Take the chill off the drinking water In cold weather and cows will drink Bore and produce more. Don't figure too fine on rations. Be liberal but don’t overfeed. You can kill all of your profit by feeding more than the cow can assimilate. ^ [National Crop Improvement Service.] The human element in dairy feed Is Important. Two men may have the same equipment, one make good money, the other fall, while both’ are supposed to be feeding by the — system and the same tables. Horse sense Is good osw sense.

The run of sheep and lambs was liberal, 13,500 head, and while feeder buyers took the thin grades eagerly at stronger figures the packers were bearish on the fat grades and bids were 15® 25c lower than last week.

HOME MIXED FEEDS. [National Crop Improvement Service.] When a man undertakes to mix his own rations, what does he do? He buys straight feeds. Take cottonseed meal as a common example. There are a great many different grades of cottonseed meal, and the man who is looking for a low-priced feed is sure to get a low grade. The demand for cheap feeding ingredients has caused the quality to be gradually whittled down. Consequently the farmer nearly always works with feeds which are poorer than he believes them to be. He does not get adequate state protection because inspectors do not go to a farmer's barn to draw sam ples, and even if they did, it would b| hard to get a complete chain of evi dence. A farmer has no facilities for hav ing his feed analyzed and he doesn’t know what he is working with. The analyses of mixed feeds costs about ten cents per ton, and if every farmer will read the various bulletins from the agricultural colleges he will soon know those brands which can be de pended upon. There is no doubt that at the present prices of grain any farmer can save money by selling his cereal crops and buying mixed feed. Cornmeal, oil meal and cottonseed meal are all high, but the by-products of barley and rye are all more reason able in price. Corn has become costly largely due to the demand for pork and beef. Americans will have those meats at almost any price. This puts corn on a meat basis, and the dairy business will have to fall back on the by-prod ucts of grains. GIVE COWS PLENTY OF WATER. [National Crop Improvement Service J When cows are in full milk they re quire plenty of water. It is stated authoritatively that cows in full flow of milk will consume 50 per cent more water than when dry. Poor feed sells to poor feeders. Big Domestic Products Display In this department, which is known as Class "H,” and under the supervision of Mrs. E. E. Brown of Central City, there Is every reason to believe that additional space will have to be allotted to this exhibit, From inquiries coming to the sec retary’s office, it is sufficient evi dence the housewives of Nebraska are going to can and preserve every thing possible this year in the food line, and this department will be the place to show their skill. In addi tion this year are two premiums for best collection of canned fruits, and canned vegetables, and the money prizes are $6.00 for first and $4.00 for second. The dates are Septem ber 3-7. DEER GREEK NUGGETS Joe Lubash hauled a load of pork era to Afthton, Monday. Maggie Peters came up from Far well to visit with her mother, Mrs. I, Pet era. Kdwurd Hurt. wchI of here, visited with the Stanley Nowlckl family last Sunday. Miss Agnes Malefski came over from Rockville to visit over Sunday with home folks. Miss Claru Nowieki took music les sons from Lottie Schalda at Ashton last. Friday We understand that Peter Wardvn will move on the W. C. Dunker farm next spring. Dan Stobbe and wife visited with Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Wroblewski one day last. week. Miss Clay Peters arrived from Grand Island last week to visit with her mo ther, Mrs. L. Peters. F. J. Maciejew’ski hauled a few loads of high priced corn to the Ashton market, Tuesday and Wednesday. The Deer Creek threshing company began threshing this week, under the supervision of Frank Bonczynski. Mr. and Mrs. Peter Jezewski and family and Alonzo Maschka of Ashton, visited with the Aug Maschka family, Sunday. Farmers have commenced to make hay this week. Hay was short last year and still shorter this year. It will be hard to keep stock through the winter on so short amount. Monday afternoon Deer Creek was refreshed by a three-eighths of an inch af rain which saved the corn crops. We wish to have another one like it to be enough for plowing. Sunday the Ashton second team journeyed to Deer Creek with well spiked men and crossed bats with our boys. At the end of the game the score was 5 to 6 in favor of Ashton. They were too much for our boys but we hope next time we meet them it will be for a better game. The Plow Pushers threshing com pany while threshing for Ignatz S Kalkowski last Saturday afternoon had hard luck by losing their machine by tire.When they had got started good only threshing 85 bushels of oats, a few sparks flew from the smoke stack and set a stack of grain afire. The wind was blowing hard and the fire gained great headway, burning the ma chine and eight stacks of grain. This is hard luck for Mr. Kalkowski. The company has ordered a new machine which will be delivered this week or next. DOUBLE DUTY A Dairy Ration Has Two Main U:es— Lifj aid Product. [National I'ruxi Improvement Sen Ice } A ration is diiided into tvto {srts: 1. The part needed to ratio i ’.a or keep the animal a', vt. 2. The pan. needed to make stored up material lik° wool, fat, meat or milk. Milk is roughly in solids, one-third each casein (protein), fat and sugar. The casein in milk can only be fur nished by the protein in the food. The fat and sugar may be derived from either protein, fat or carbo hydrates. If a cow has the ability to give 50 founds of milk containing two pounds of casein, and, only gets enough pro tein to make" one pound of casein, then she will only give 25 pounds of milk. A balanced ration Is one that has just the exact amount of protein, fat and carbohydrates that the cow needs. Just what this is we cannot ever say exactly, because the amounts vary from week to week and no two cows are alike, nor are feeds alike. A practical ration is one that has sufficient protein and enough total food to make the greatest amount of milk without the cow losing weight. A commercially successful ration is the one that makes the most milk or profit, keeps the cow healthy and en ables the use of the most roughage. All the hay and ensilage .. cow can eat will keep her alive and make about 15 pounds of milk. Any more milk has to come from grain or grain feed. The farm can usually raise carbo hydrates cheap in the form of hay and ensilage, and, outside of clover, peas, etc., protein can usually be bought cheaper than it can be raised. The average price of protein feeds with 20 per cent digestible protein was about $26 to $35 per ton before the war. but the prices are much higher now. while hay (clover) wdth 5% Per cent digestible protein has been rated at $10 per ton, so the pro tein feed at $40 would furnish protein about the same as clover at $10.

There are families who always aim to keep a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic and Diarrhoea Remedy in the house . for use that it is not only a good investment but saves them no end of suffering.
