Chicago. Pat Eustlce swayed on
the edge of an elevator shaft on the
twentieth Boor of the Helsen building,
this city.
"Look out below," he yelled as he
slipped off.
Jack Murray, hammering rivets on
the nineteenth floor, "looked out" He
saw Eustlce jerkily struggling to re
gain his lost equilibrium. He watched
him slowly topple over and then crash
toward the earth. Here Is where the
miracle comes in.
Jack threw a leg and an arm around
, a projecting pillar and bung far out
under the falling man. As the body
of Eustlce came zipping by Murray
picked him out of midair and landed
him safely on the eighteenth floor.
Murray did not actually catch the
falling man. But hla strength was suf
ficient to deflect the course of Eus
tlce's fall sufficiently to bring ' him
over two beams. Eustlce hit ' the
Learns, slid half way off, stopped, lay
still for two minutes and then got up.
For the Information of those deslr
lous of knowing what rescued persons
say to heroes it might be chronicled
that Eustlce reached in his hip pocket,
pulled out his plug, tendered It to
Murray and said:
"You're a heller."
Thereupon the hero eollcltlously
replied, "I didn't go to tear your
coat" ,
Eustlce then turned to a ladder and
started to climb back to his work of
tossing hot rivets. His companions
stopped him and be was taken to a

CALLS RENO MQDERN SODOM
Nevada Pastor Speaks Right Out and
Says Imported Divorcees Are De
moralizing Youths.
Reno, Nev. "Before I .would be so
cowardly as to keep my mouth shut
on the divorce business, like many
Nevada preachers do, while their
churches fill up with divorced people,
I would quit preaching and go to dig
ging sassafras root," said Rev.
Charles Cecil, from the pulpit of the
Sparks Baptist church.
"The short sighted business men of
Reno," said he, "think that the pro
motion of the divorce business will
build up the state.
"Many of these Imported divorcees
are engulfing the morals of our boys
worBe than the women of Sodom.
Down south, where I came from. If
any of our folks get tired of living
together and want to try another
companion, they pack up and come to
Reno and, after unhitching, they
bitch up with some other sucker.
"To advertise this state, or Reno,
as a Sodom is poor policy, and to ad
vertise Nevada as the most lax place
In America to secure divorces, will
make the state a howling wilderness."
Never Married, but Divorced.
Logansport, Ind. Emma Grauel
was granted a divorce from Absolom
Orauel, although she testified they
had never been legally married. She
complained of abandonment after
they had lived together 18 years and
after the birth of seven children, and
the court recognized, this as a com'
tuon-law marriage."' V

FEEDING GRAIN TO DAIRY COWS
ON PASTURE.
Br M rri Koon. Cregon Agricultural CoTleee.
Whether cows should or shoul4 not
be fed grain when grazing is yet an
undecided question. Some few dairy
men believe grain feeding should be
practiced while cows are on pasture.
However, it is a common practice to
feed no grain while gracing conditions
are good. Most dairymen are inclined
to think it does not pay to feed grain
under such conditions. It is possible,
however, that where this belief is
held there has been considered only
the direct returns from the grain fed
in milk yield alone, without reference
to other beneficial effects which will
be mentioned later.
Some of the results of experimental
work at different state experiment
stations regarding the matter may be
summarized as follows :
. At the Cornell, New York, experi
ment station, in a season during which
the pasture was very luxuriant
throughout the whole summer, except
for a short time in the middle of the,
season, with three cows . in each lot,
the total amount of butter fat pro
duced was almost the same in both
lots. In this experiment the grain
fed lot continued to receive the same
ration on pasture that they had re
ceived during the winter on dry feed.
Another experiment conducted the
same year on soiling with grass alone,
and with grass and grain showed that
just about enough more butter fat was
produced by the grain fed lot to pay
for the increased cost of the grain ra
tion. A net profit was made on the
grain fed lot of $3.70, 8 cows for fivel
months.
The next season a similar experi
ment was conducted. At no time
during the season was the pasture lux
uriant. A herd of sixteen cows, pure
bred and registered Jerseys, was di
vided into two lots of eight cows each.
Lot 1 received grain as follows:
Corn meal- 2,600 pounds; Cotton
seed meal, 1,300 pounds; Bran, 1,300'
pounds. Total, 5,200 pounds.
Lot 2 received no grain.
The milk produced by the two lots
wa3 .as follows:
Lot 1, 22,628 pounds; Lot 2, 17.697
pounds. Difference, 4,931 pounds.
It will be observed that the grain
fed lot produced nearly five thousand
pounds more milk than the lot getting
no grain, an average daily difference
of about three and one-half pounds per
cow. This was enough more milk and
butter fat to pay for the increased
cost of the grain ration The grain
fed lot gained 166 pounds live weight
per cow, while the cows in the lot re
ceiving no grain gained an average of
116 pounds per cow, a difference of 63
pounds per animal in favor of the
grain fed lot. The question now
arises whether the increase in milk
flow and the gain in live weight of
Lot 1 over Lot 2 would have any in
fluence on the milk flow of the follow
ing year. The data compiled the year
following, when all the animals were
on pasture alone showed that the cows1
in the former grain-fed lot produced
16.2 per cent more milk than the cows
in the former check lot not fed grain.
It seems reasonable to assume that
this increased production was due to
the grain fed during the preceding
year, especially in the case of the
younger animals. Indeed it was
plainly evident that the grain fed
two-year-olds and three-year-olds de
veloped into better animals than their
stable mates fed no grain.
Bulletin No. 16 of the North Dakota
station reports as follows :
Two lots of two cows each were fed
grain with pasture, and pasture only,
in alternating periods of two weeks.
The pasture was composed of mixed
tame grasses and clover and was of
good quality.
The grain used was bran and shorts.
There was an inrease in the yield of
butter fat and a small gain in flesh
when the grain was fed. The gain in
the butter fat yielded came from an
increased milk flow, as no increase in
the percentage of fat was shown. The
financial statement showed a net profit
of $7.60 from feeding the grain.
The considerations that arise in the
effort to determine whether grain
should be fed or not are of so elusive
a nature that it is scarcely possible to
arrive at conclusions that may be re
garded as final when sitting in judg
ment upon them. If it were only a
question of increased milk production
in relation to the cost of the grain fed
the problem would be easy, but in
addition are the influences exerted by
the previous feeding of the cow, and
by the residual effects from feeding
grain on further production. The
saving effected in pasture, the feeding
value of the increased yield of skim
milk, and the added fertility of the
land must also be considered. That a
cow turned into pasture in a lean con
dition of flesh would profit more from
grain fed than one in a good condition
of flesh, would seem reasonable, even
in the absence of determining proof.
That the grain fed tends to increase
future production has been determined
by experimental evidence, with at
east reasonable certainty. That some
saving of pasture will be effected, and
that some fertility will be added to
the pasture from grain feeding is self
evident. It is equally apparent, how
ever, that the exact measure of the
influence exercised in each of these
several instances can not be definitely
determined. For instance, the fer
tilizing constituents contained in one
ton of some of the most common grain
feeds used are given a commercial
value as follows:
Wheat bran, $12.51; shorts, $9.47;
oil meal, $19.32; oats, $7.62; bar
ley, $5.80.
That is to say, if we were to go into
the market and purchase in the form
of commercial fertilizers, the amount
of plant food contained in one ton of
each of the food stuffs enumerated
above, the cost would be as above
stated. But in the handling of the
manure from the animals there wcmld
be more or less loss of the fertilizing
ingredients of the grain fed, and on
some soils it is certain that the effect
would not be so marked as on other
soils.
The following conclusions regarding
the questions would seem safe:
1. When cows are fed grain on
pasture that is succulent and abun
dant, the tendency of such feeding is
to increase the yield of milk.
Z. I he tendency of such feeding is
also to promote some increase of flesh
production.
3. The quality of the milk, that is,
its per cent of fat, is not materially
influenced by such feeding.
4. The residual effects 'from such
feeding are considerable, as are shown
in two ways: First, in building up
the system, as it were, through in
crease in flesh; and second, by in
creased subsequent production in the
period of lactation that immediately
follows. -It has also been demon
strated that grain fed to heifers in
milk, of yet uncompleted growth, on
pasture, resulted in securing a more
perfect growth than when not so fed.
5. Some savin? will be effected in
the pasture. While the amount of
such saving is not easily determined,
it is generally true that it will not be
quite equal to the value of the grain
fed, for pasture is ordinarily relative
ly cheaper than grain.
6. The . resultant fertilizer from
feeding grain should have a tangible
value. This value will be proportion
ate to the quantity of grain fed, and
to the fertilizing ingredients in the
same. The ".increase in direct milk
production therefore, from feeding
grain tells but a part of the benefit
from such feeding, and perhaps not
the most important part.
In the present status of the question
the following would seem to be a ju
dicious course to pursue : When the
pastures are succulent and abundant,
and where the probable supply of the
pasture is ample, omit feeding grain
from the time that the change from
stable to pasture has been completed
until the pasture begins to fail, either
through shortage Jor lack of succul
ence. But should the prospective
supply of grazing be short of the
needs of the cows, continue to feed
grain, but in small amounts, say two
to four pounds daily. Bran and shorts
will usually be the grain food for
most economical feeding. At times,
however, ground barley or oats could
more profitably be fed. Should the
cows freshen during the season of late
pasture as in a common practice, care
should be taken that the feeding of
grain be begun in ample time to pre
vent checking the milk flow for the
winter milking season.

Miinyon's Stomach Treatment
Performing Miracles.
Munyon Tells You How to Get Well
Free of Charge.
A few days ago I received a letter
from a young man, who states ,he is
28 years of age, and has occupied
several important positions, but ow
ing to indigestion and inability to
sleep he has been unable to concen
trate his mind upon his work and
has consequently been discharged on
the ground of neglect of duty. He
goes on to say that he is a young
man of steady habits, but for years
he has suffered from dyspepsia, which
has so affected his nerves that he
Is unable to sleep, and that it is not
neglect upon hla part, nor lack oi
interest, but simply physical weak
ness. He asks my advice in this
matter.
For the benefit of a large number
of those similarly situated I propose
to answer this letter publicly, hoping
that it may be the means of helping
many who may be affected in this
way.
In the first place the stomach must
be well before the nerves can be
made strong. The nerves must be
made strong before one can sleep
well. No one Is capable of doing hid
best who is in any way troubled with
Insomnia or any form of nervousness.
The greatest generals have been men
of iron nerve and indomitable will.
They have had perfect digestion, be
ing able to eat well and digest all
they ate.
It Is said Napoleon lost the battle
of Waterloo because of a fit of in
digestion. Grant's enormous reserve
power was due to a well stomach.
Abraham Lincoln said that "he did
not know that he had a stomach."
Grover Cleveland, It is said, could
work IS hours a day, eat a hearty
meal at 2 or 3 o'clock In the morn
ing, go to bed and sleep soundly un
til 9 o'clock and get up refreshed,
ready for 'a new day's work.
Pres. Taft is another type Of a
healthy manhood. Who thinks for
one moment that he would be the
President of the United States today
had he been a dyspeptic or affected
with some nervous ailment? I claim
that two-thirds of all the failures in
professional and business life are due
to weak and deranged stomachs.
No business house would care to
employ a dyspeptic representative
to sell goods for them on the road.
One-half the men who stand behind
counters today, earning from 12 to
15 a week, will never get beyond
these figures, for the reason that they
are physically weak. They lack
tne nerve power and commanding
strength that come from a good
sound stomach.
No one cares to hear a dyspeptic
preacher. No matter how pious he
may be, he is bound to reflect his
bilious and jaundiced condition. He
will unconsciously inoculate his hear
ers with his melancholy feelings.
No one would think of entrusting
an Important legal case In the hands
of a dyspeptic lawyer, any more than
he would care to entrust his own
lire, or that of a dear one in th
hands of a physician who is nervous.
Irritable or a dyspeptic. Men must
have good digestion, strong nerves
and vital manhood in Ader to ren
der a clean, clear-cut decision either
in meaicme, law or business.
I believe more than half of the
divorces can be traced to ill health.
I want every dyspeptic to try my
stomach treatment. It makes old
stomachs almost as good as new. Its
marvelous power for digesting food
and getting the best out of it makes
for good rich red blood. This In
turn strengthens the nerves, builds
up the general system, and wilPsure
ly prolong life and make it a pleas
ure to live and do the things allotted
to us.
