Prof. H. It. Smith of the State t'nlrerslty
School of Agriculture gave another f his
pleading, practical and entertaining
lecture before the South Omaha commis
sion men and stockmen yesterday. The
lecture concerned the most economical
feeding of stock under tne present nigh
prices of corn and other feed. A new
feature In the profeesor's lecture was tha
presentation of four lota of fattened cattle
fed at the state farm with a view to
demonstrating tha effect and economy of
various rations of food. The first lot waa
fed five months on twelve) pounds of corn
and 17.S pounds of alfalfa hay. This
amount of hay Was alt in. steers would
consumt. On this lot a 'profit of M W a
head waa realised over all expenses. The
most profitable animal of the lot was
neither the largest gainer nor the highest
seller, but perfect type of steer, with arga
girths, smooth ' outlln. shbrt neck, brdad
face and fine healthy skin. Therefore the
first thing for the feeder to do Is to choose
the best type of cattle for his feed lot
and then feed with a view to the greatest
profit. This the professor declared was
no longer- to stuff the animal with high
priced corn, but to begin feeding early
with s little com and all the alfalfa the
animal will eat.- He thought corn fed from
the shock during tha first three months
the most economical. The first lot Illus
trated tle light feed of corn.
The second lot Illustrated the medium
feed of corn, or sixteen pounds. It was
found tfiat wth alxteen pounds of corn the
rattle ate only fifteen and six-tenths
pounds of hay. Tha profit on this load
was Htti per bead. The cost of putting on
100 pounds of flesh was S7. The best price
paid for the best steer was M 64 In this lot.
The biggest profit In the medium feed waa
9.H on one exceptionally fine ateer. The
profit was not so great, however, aa was
the profit for the lighter feed of corn.
In the heavy feed of corn,- or eighteen
and eight-tenths pounds daily, and only
eight and seven-tenths peunds of alfalfa.
the lot showed a net profit of tin, or con
Stderably less than the light fed cattle.
One steer in the heavy ted lot showed a
loss of $1 91.
The stockmen enjoyed the demonstration
Immensely and especially tha experimental
choosing of the most profitable steer as
they passed. All were able to pick tha best
selling steer with eaae. Many tailed to
pick the animal which had made the largest
gain under the several claseea of feeding.
Tha prof eseor . has won a firm place in
the regard of the stockmen by his common
sens methods and the simplicity of his
demonstrations. Tha steer which Is most
profitable to the feeder is often a loes.to
the breeder of cattle. The . professor ad
vised breeding cattle of the low type, with
large girths, deep chests and plenty of
lung capacity. .
After the lecture ' the animals were
slaughtered and a record mad of the way
they dressed out, to shtw which .animal was
most profitable to the packer as well as to
the breeder and. feeder. These figures are
to be published In book form and furnished
to all applicants.
. Mayor Stana Llahtlaa Ordlnaace.
Mayor Frank Koutiky algned tha electric
light ordinance yesterday morning, grant
fng.to the 'Omaha pilectrtc Light and Powor
eompany, the contract for city lighting for
five years- It was expected the mayor
might veto the ordinance, but ha did not
see fit to do so. The fact that the newly
organised company, the South Omana
Electric Light and Power company did not
put up a fight Sgalnat the old company,
as waa expected, has caused considerable
Irritation among the 600 or more signers
of the petition to the city council requesting
the members of that body to grant the
contract to the local company. It waa
thought an (asy matter to . compel the
council to aubmlt. the matter to a vote,
which would without question have led
to an award to the South Omaha com
pany. ' Among the people disposed to criticise
the new company fof not putting up a
stronger fight Is James Austin, ' who
vigorously expressed his view of the matter
yesterday evening. He said: "I thought
the new company' was Oraanlxed on the
square, and that it Infended to make a
vigorous fight for better service in South
Omaha. The company had plenty of back
ing among the cltlsena, and I for one would
llkexo know why they dropped out of sight
and laid down."
Flpsr for Labor Federation.
The South Omaha organlxatlon of the
American Federation of Labor received a
fine silk banner, yesterday from the War
department, which banner la to float aver
the South Omaha labor temple on state
occasions. Tha flag was secured through
Major McCarthy, quartermaster of the De
partment of the Missouri. The banner Is
t0x feet and It. ,1a needless to sy the
labor organization la 'proud of ItT The Hag
will be displayed un K "fag day. ' A
committee lately solicited th packers for
a flag, but It seems tnat eacn pacxing
eompany agreed to donate an; equal shre
with any other packer. They did not, how
ever, agree on any definite amount. Be
coming, discouraged. ;the committee' went
with auccess to Major sicueriny.

atea for Verdict.
Louis Peterson was aoqultted pf th
manslaughter charge brought against htm
because of the death of John Hibbard, by
a Jury In district court after It had ben
out five minutes Tuesday afternoon.
Inability of the atate to show that tha
fall which Hibbard waa said to have r
celved ss a result of a blow from Peter
son! caused th man's de'.th in an alley
hours later, seems to have ben the strong
est point which th Jury ' sonnldet-ed.
The case went to the Jury at 6:30 yester
day afternoon. Tha defenae had rested fol
lowing the tosttmony of tn defendant, who
denied striking th man anything mor
than a slap. 4
Four addresses, none of them long, were
mad to the Jury by the lawyers in th
case.
Th defense was that Hlbabrd might
have been beaten by another man after he
had left the Petcraon saloon on Sixteenth
and California streets. In fact, the d
fens had witnesses to testify that they
saw and heard things which would lnd
cat - Hlbbajird fought or was stacked - by

"In June, 1908," he writes, there ap

"The rseult of th treatment waa that
