Nix is one of the consultors of the diocese who was honored on April 18, 1935, when he was made private Chamberlin to His Holiness Pope Pius XI. The picture is well done with rich' coloring in the cardinal red robes and other details and Mr. Stock may justly be proud of his achievement in successfully completing a portrait of so worthy and respected a subject.

Those desiring tickets are requested to buy them from members of the Reed Gtmaxy Grass > Reed canary grass is higher la feeding value than timothy hay. In a trial carried on at University farm, St. Paul, it was found that fillies made larger gains with less grain when fed canary grass than when fed prairie hay. Prairie hay is just about as good, if not a little better, than timothy hay for horses. I do not know whether canary grass would excel alsike clover hay for : horses, but I think it would be almost ^ as high in feeding value. Alsike j clover might prove a little more valuable than Reed canary grass for young stock because it is a little higher in crude protein. If Reed canary grass is not too coarse, it is excellent hay for horses.--A. L Harvey, Division of Animal Husbandry.
