Progressive experiments of tho

said. "It has been shown through
numerous biological analyses by
various scientific investigators that
cow's milk under ordinary condi
tions is deficient In such dietary
necessities as vitamins C, V and
K, iron and Iodine. .
"Biochemists have established
that it Is possible to Incrense not

that tho lodino content alono in

Crab scrap, a by-product made
from non-edible waste of tho crab
industry, has been found to be an
excellent poultry food, he. said. In
preliminary feeding tests, scrap in
cluded in a month's ration doubled
egg production.
A vast program of cooperative
feeding tests in collaboration with
various bureaus and agencies of
the department of agriculture,
state experiment stations, and uni

feeds of marine animal origin.
Besides tests of various fish
meals for their potency, mineral
content, and vitamin supplies, re

value of dried seaweed, a vast
source, of, organic Iodine, shrimp
bran, and the nutritive properties?
of fish liver oils. i

said to have run between liO and

Nearly all of the grain is shriveled

4 'A I-- bushels of wheat per acre.
Giles riass moved his threshing
outfit to the K. J. Conner farm on
Whiskey creek the first ut the
week and was busy threshing then,
the greater part of the. week. Mr.
Conner's wheat is said to have run
in the neighborhood of li5 bu-
shels per acre. .Some of the thres-
ermen say that the straw is ro
dry that it is difficult to do a clean
job of threshing without allowing ,
part of the light grain to go over
in the straw. The. season has been
an exceptionally good one for har
