Athleigh remained locked in secret

Ireland's fate in their hands. An air
of tense expectancy pervaded the
ante-room where Helen .waited with
Gerald, ' '
"We've agreed to talk with them,"
Lord Athleigh told Helen when ho
emerged, his face drawn and seri

my dear. It will only bo a tempo

willing . to come."
"But they moat!" cried Helen. Her
heart swelled with joy and hope.

Feed Cotton Seed
To Growing Hogs
By L. W. ANDERSON
Several Perquimans County farm
ers have slaughtered or sold lor
market their small hogs which were
really too small for slaughter, rath
er than feed them high priced corn.
Most of these farmers know that
corn alone is not a balanced feed and
is really unprofitable when fed alone.
It is possible to feed these hogs to
maturity at present prices of pork
and make good profits, however this
is largely, dependent upon rapid
gains and the most efficient use of
feeds.
About 80 percent of the total cost
of producing a pound of pork is feed
cost. Practically all of our home
grown feeds are deficient in protein,
and these feeds must be supplement
ed for profitable gains. Cotton seed
meal contains over 30 percent .pro
tein and makes an excellent supple
ment feeding for hogs when proper
ly used.
The following ration is recom
mended for feeding 76 to 250 pound
hogs in dry lot. The feed may be
given through self-feeders or wet
slop:
Shelled corn 82 lbs.
Wheat, shorts 5 lbs.
Cotton seed meal 8 lbs.
Fish meal or tankage 5 lbs.
Add to the above mixture one
pound of finely ground limestone or
bone meal or wood ashes, also add
one half pound of fine salt.
Cotton seed meal may also be fed
to horses and mules at a saving in
feed cost. Give from one to two
pounds of cotton seed meal per day
along with corn or other grains de
pending upon the amount of work
being done by the animals. Cotton
seed hulls may also be used as part
of the roughage for horses and
mules. Pure water and salt should
always be aaila'ble for the work
stock.

Although the $600,000 appropria

delivery of the 650 bussese authoriz
ed cannot be completed until spring,

precipitated by worn equipment to
travel roads damaged by persistent
rains, will be passed.
It is said that the 650 busses au
