I'ottoufceed cake) or cold pressed cake may be used instead of meal and prove equally satisfactory, but in either ^case, hulls or 8 o lite sort of rOUgh&g? must be used. Wo are of the opinion that any one who contemplates feeding beef cattlo should provide silage as the cheapest^ roughage. with silage and corn stover, or some cheaply Ptoduced hay, or cottonseed hulls, ?if they can he bought for not over $0 to J 7 a ton. ? the cheapest rough age has been provided, and then cottonseed meal or cake must be re lied upon as the choapeRt concen trate available. ^ With silage, some dry roughage must be used, and corn stover or cottonseed hulls are about the only available feeds of this sort. Hays that can be marketed' are usually too high-priced, except In sections where more hay Is produced than is consumed locally, and even hulls usually sell for more than their val ue for this sort (of feeding: Money may sometimes be made deeding meal and hulls only, but this ration lacks variety arid is only suitable for a short feeding period. If meal and hulls or cottonseed meal cake and hulls are used, about four pounds of hulls should be given to one pound of the meal, or caked or broken cake, and If the cold-press ed cake (which includes the whole seed minus the oil which has been removed) about threo pounds of hullH should bo given to 4wo pounds of the cold pressed cake. For a sliort feeding period, 400 to 600 pound steers should probably get from three pounds to five pounds of meal and twelve pounds to twenty pounds of hulls a day, when on full feed. As to prospect/* tor feeding,""; It looks as if those who have the feed and can get the cattle at a fair price, have au encouraging outlook The present ruling high prices for anything showing any finish or qual ity have caused the .marketing of everything available, and this, with the moderately high prices of feeds, Bhould tend toward a small supply next spring, and consequently con tinued good prices. The difficulty of getting feeders at a fair price is the greatest problem. ? -Tait Butler In Progressive Farmer ?

The phoaphate depoait is the moat important discovery that Dr. Dee haa made, but he has alao found other depoalts of Iron ore, fire brick clay, fuller's earth and other, valu able .minerals. He plana to contin ue hla Investigations and if the owners of the landa on which the Dhosphate depoaits lie and local eapltaliata can be interested in the matter he will make a thorough sur vey of the phoaphate in order to I poaltively determine and define the extent and distribution of the phos phate deposit. The statements of Dr. Lee are not only lntereatlng, but senaatlon al and but for the fact that ho haa such excellent credentials would be received with florrfotrmnd suspieion. Hut aa he is endorsed aa a compe tent geologiat and alao aa a truat worthy and reliably man, hia report ed discovery of a valuable depoait! in this ? county merits a' careful inves tigation. If such a deposit exists and we have passed it by through ignorance all these years, wo want to know1 It and take steps to utilize it. When it was first stated that there was. phosphate rock in Flor ida and Tennessee few pedple be lieved it, and some of the scientists ridiculed the statements of the 'dis coverers. But later developments establlshhed the fact that great de posits had been dlacovered and mil lions of dollars worth of rock have been taken from the Florida and Tennessee bedB. There may be equally as oxtenalve phosphate beds underlying Sumter coupty. It Is well within the realm of possibility. We may bo from Missouri, but if Dr. Lee can show us, .we are will ing to be convinced. ? Sumter Dally Item. ? :. v." ' ^2^? AH the latest "bite" at 10c per sheet. Q. W. Crosby. ?
