THE GIFT OF MRS. EXALL
AND HENRY EXALL, JR.
The $10,000 prize award of the
Mias Industrial’CoDKress for best
r:?t profits in farming divided
ODg its prize-winning contest-
ants in 1913 was the gift of Mrs.
May D. Exali and Henry Exali,
I ?r., widow and son of the late
Colonel Henry Exali. Following
: death the executive committee
met in Dallas to take action toward
I caring for all tbe obligations of
: Congress, and assumed the
I j total outstanding obligations and
l re pared to raise the money.
However, a statement came be-
j fore the committee that Mrs.
Csali wished to pay the prize
vv&rds as a tribute to her hus-
Dand’s memory. The committee
was averse to having any part of
?. he expense borne by the family,
rme Colonel Exali had already
; ven more money to the work of
the Congress than any other con-
butor, tcr~say —nothing hi&
: time and strength. A committee
was sent to call on Mrs Exali and
consult with her. If she purposed
t o pay the prize awards as dis-
charging a moral obligation that
Colonel Exali had incurred, mem-
rs of the executive committee
were unanimously of the opinion
that the Congress should raise the
money; if she wished to do it of
h^r own motion as a splendid act
keeping with the Colonel’s great
selfish work, and fitly honoring
j t, the committee considered that
ought not to stand in the way.
t he matter was placed before Mrs.
Exali, and she made it clear that
| she and her son wished to pay this
money. The committee accordingly
! acceded to her wishes and this gift,
which should be an inspiration to
e people of the State, supple-
I mented the greater gift of Colonel
xalPs service “For a greater
| Texas” in the work of promoting
e better farming.

Notes on Feeding Experiment:—
Cattle were weighed up on Novem-
ber 14, and the experiment began
with the evening feed of that day.
On December 14th, the cattle were
again weighed to get mferage of
the first 30 days gain. The steers
were weighed on Dec. 31 and Jan.
31 and the average of these two
days was taken as the final weight
of the steers.
These steers bad been getting
cake for some time, so they were
started in on four and one half
pounds a day; the average for the
entire feeding period was five and
nine tenths pounds allay.
The average daily feed of silage
was about fifty-seven pounds per
day.
Sorghum was fed to the steers
of Lot 1, op account of the grass
being covered up with snow for
several’day8. Sorghum was fed
to both lots on the night after the
final weighing.
