U a r t o n , geologist, left here J u l y ^4 to join the expedition of the N a t i o n a l G e o g r a p h i c So- I ciety engaged in e x c a v a t i n g trie site of the p r e h i s t o r i c r u m s . Kxtinct ele- I p h a n t s , camels, and microscopic I w a t e r p l a n t s may aid in the solution of the problem. T h e s e m y s t e r i o u s r u i n s consist of a large p y r a m i d - l i k e p l a t f o r m of an ancient temple, which was concealed for a g e s by volcanic and other deposits and only discovered a few m o n t h s ago by Dr. Byron C u m m i n g s of the U n i v e r s i t y of A r i z o n a . B e n e a t h the lava were found h u m a n bones and pottery which indicate t h a t the builders of t h i s temple were a primitive people, who lived in the Valley of Mexico long before the Aztecs or t h e M a y a who preceeded them came to t h a t region. It is claimed t h a t this ruin is likely to prove 7,000 y e a r s old, which would p u t it about a t h o u s a n d y e a r s e a r l i e r t h a n the p y r a m i d s of E g y p t . M a r i n e D e p o s i t s F o u n d M a r i n e deposits have been found u n d e r the lava n e a r the ancient temple, and it is t h o u g h t t h a t it may have been originally built on the shore of Lake Texcoco, which h a s dwindled g r e a t l y in size within historic times and now is about twelve miles a w a y from Cuicuilco where the r u i n s a r e found. It is shown however, t h a t this lake was formerly about t w e n t y miles across and covered practically the ent i r e valley. Dr. D a r t o o n will endeavor to t r a c e the ancient shore lines, d e t e r m i n e the r a t e at which the lake has s h r u n k and in other w a y s a r r i v e at the a p p r o x i - m a t e date of the building. The a g i n g of the lava will also be studied. R e m a i n s of extinct elephants and camels have been found to the n o r t h of Lake Texoco and it is t h o u g h t possible the deposits from which they were obtained may be correlated with similar deposits n e a r the ancient t e m - ple. D i a t o m s , tiny p l a n t s t h a t live in the w a t e r may also furnish a clue for forms may be found t h a t are now extinct. An e a r t h q u a k e rift and the sinking of part of the valley is evidenced in the rocks. Deposits of volcanic or other m a t e r i a l made since this break are found crossing it. As e a r t h - q u a k e s and volcanic e r u p t i o n s are closely associated, this slipping of the s t r a t a may be correlated with the eruption which covered Cuicuilco. Determination of the age of the ruin is a very complicated geological problem, and many other lines of attack will he u n d e r t a k e n . ly on the soldier's breast, her a r m s wound tightly about his neck.

To sweep o u t t h e used a i r and a n d a d m i t u fresh supply of p u r e a i r is the business of ventilation. -Good ventilationtion requires t h a t t h e air in t h e house shall be kept in gentle, if imperceptible, motion; t h a t it shall be w a r m e d or cooled to t h e r i g h t t e m p e r a t u r e a n d shall h a v e t h e p r o p e r degree of h u m i d i t y a n d freshness.

The best w a y to ventilate a room is to open t h e windows or doors on opposite sides in o r d e r to secure a cross c u r r e n t . If t h e wind h a p p e n s to be blowing s t r o n g l y , it will speedily fill every p a r t of t h e house with clean, fresh a i r , b u t on a still d a y t h e process will t a k e longer. E v e r y occupied room in the house, including d i n i n g room a n d s i t t i n g rooms, should be completely flushed with p u r e outof- door a i r a t least once m 24 hours . To p r e v e n t t h e cold a i r from chilling t h e floor a window board m a y be inserted in t h e opening made when the lower sash is raised a f e w inches, which p e r m i t s t h e cold a i r to e n t e r t h e the room between t h e t w o sashes, while t h e heated a i r p a s s e s out t h r o u g h a slight opening a t t h e t o p of t h e window. T h i s method of ventilation is p a r t i c u l a r l y well a d a p t e d to rooms which a r e in constant use. In severe n o r t h e r n w i n t e r s it is a very difficult m a t t e r to keep t h e house comfortably w a r m a n d a t t h e same time to keep t h e a i r fresh. In t h e daytime t h e rooms m a y be aired when they a r e not in use. Rooms which have been chilled m u s t be w a r m e d again before children come into them. T h e play room or s i t t i n g room may be aired a f t e r the children have gone out or while they a r e asleep, and the bedrooms m a y be flushed thoroughly at least once d u r i n g t h e d a y even in t h e coldest w e a t h e r . A t night a t least one window in t h e bedroom should be c o n s t a n t l y open, even if only a crack. The children c a n be p u t into sleeping bags, using t w o o r t h r e e if necessary. T h e beds c a n be screened to protect t h e children from d r a f t s or t h e h e a t c a n be kept on all n i g h t ; but if they a r e w a r m l y covered, children will be benefited in every w a y by t h e fresh a i r . One method of ventilating bedrooms in cold w e a t h e r is to cover an o r d i n a r y window screen •with a thickness or t w o of cheesecloth a n d insert it in the widely opened window. A screen of t h i s kind will afford a s u r p r i s i n g a m o u n t of protection a g a i n s t a too sudden i n r u s h of icy air. Sleeping porches have largely solved the question of ventilation for bedr o o m s , a n d w h e r e v e r such a porch is available t h e children m a y safely use it after they a r e p a s t infancy, except in extremely cold or s t o r m y w e a t h e r a n d when a high wind is blowing. T h e r e is a p o p u l a r p r e j u d i c e a g a i n s t d r a f t s , but a f t e r a person h a s become accustomed to a i r in motion he will find o u t t h a t he does riot suffer from it. C h i l d r e n who a r e used to rooms t h r o u g h which a gentle c u r r e n t of a i r is c o n s t a n t l y passin g a r e f a r less likely to suffer from diseases of the nose ami t h r o a t than a i v those who a r e kept in tight rooms whi-re t h e air is still a n d tends to become overheated. An open fireplace or g r a t e is oie- of t h e best m e a n s of s e c u r i n g good ventilation. Xo system of ventilation, however, faithfully c a r r i e d keeps t h e indoor a i r suitable for children to live in continuously. As one w r i t e r h a s said, it is necessary also to " v e n t i l a t e the children." Even in winter a n d in s t o r m y weather, when many forms of outdoor life a r e necessarily c u r t a i l e d , a sheltered porch, preferably on t h e sunny side of t h e house, will m a k e it possible for the children t o h a v e many h a p p y and beneficial h o u r s o u t of doors, while in the milder m o n t h s they should live out of doors as large a p a r t of t h e day a s possible. H e a t i n g A h e a t i n g system is successful when it w a r m s t h e house so well t h a t windows m a y be kept slightly open much of t h e time, even in cold weather. A system t h a t r e q u i r e s t h e rooms to be sealed in order to be kept comfortably w a r m is bad. T h e real and p r a c t i c a l problem of h e a t i n g is the cost of fuel, b u t "coal is cheaper t h a n colds.''

ANNOUNCEMENT The story, "Thornton Clans, Conscript," which you have been reading, ia now drawing to a close, with but a few more weeks to run. The author, James Milford Merrill, a Michigan writer of many years, has now reached a ripe old age and we wish to make a request in his behalf. Will you write him a letter, or even a postal card, telling him how you like the story and what you think of same? This is a very small favor, but \\ may mean much to Mr. Merrill, as the$e testimonies will encourage -and strengthen him and, greatest of all, may give him greater assistance in selling the story, or in publishing it in book form. Will you please g r a n t this favor? THE EDITOR. Address your letter to James Milford Merrill, Grandville, Mich. » C H A P T E R XXX Evelyn. It was the last day of grace for Jack Perkins. He had found the hospital and Lieutenant Clang. The latter was in a nervous state bordering on collapse. He was fast losing his intereet in life, at which Jack wondered, since he had not made the sick man acquainted with the condition of affairs at home. The young soldier was himself a bit downhearted. Not a sign came from the North to indicate that Rachel had received his letter; and it was now past the time set for the have been brave; I read it in the paper a t home. Poor Josiah Meadows wrote about it for the Gazette." "Ah, yes," sighed Jack, not thinking )f himself now. "Poor chap! lltwas killed at Spottsylvama." "And you, Jack—-'' I "I saw that he was properly buritd, j and wrote to his poor old mother." [ "I know it, Jack. She showed me 'the letter and cried over the kind, ^ood words you sent. That praise of Josiah went to her heart. She is sadly proud of her hero, Jack." j "And well she may be," declared j the young soldier. "He was true blue, ! and fell with his face to the foe. I shall have his body exhumed and sent home after the war. But about Captain Ranger. He has disappointed everybody. He hasn't any grit; likes the hospital better than the field when there's trouble brewing. That's enough. You'll think I am slandering the man. Have you—you come down expecting to see him, Evelyn? I hope—" "I came with father," she answered, her cheeks flushing, her eyes filled with starry light. "It is this way, Sergeant Jack. Papa has some friends in the government service; he has a letter of introduction to our good President and maybe I shall see and take Abraham Lincoln by the hand. Won't that be fine? There's something I am anxious about. Rachel—" "Yes, yes, Rachel!" exclaimed Jack. "She came with us:.... "What! Is Rachel here in Washington?" is here looking coming into the collar with true blue courage and suohme herui.-m. U hat a mess life is miytivw thought the buy. W'hem he m.-nuoried Captain Ranger again the girl said with bitten lip: "Don't say anything about that fellow, Javk. I never l;ked him anyhow." "Won't you cart when you hear he has married a Virginia girl?" asked Jack. "Not a particle," her face exhibiting calm indifference. "Then, by George, there must be a chance for me, Evelyn!" exclaimed the delighted boy as he squeezed her willing hand and gazed delightedly up into her pretty, flushing face.

It was too late to think of sending a telegram. Jack writhed and sweat, if not drops of blood at least great bucketsful of mental anguish— then something happened though wounded, that he has been fighting like u lion for Old Glory; that he has made amends for his past and is a true blue Unionist!

His blazed in the eyes of the soldier boy. face was dashed with white; his It was like manna in the wilderness throat constricted; he could not utter to see the girl's pretty pink and white j another word. Evelyn pitied him, time is short; it's out in a few hours. Oh, but this is grand, good news!" "It is," admitted the girl. "Rachel is quite broken up over her husband —her first one I mean. She—" "Evelyn!" Jack halted and seized his comface here in Washington. "By George!" declared the boy, "this is the happiest moment of my live, Evelyn Burridge!" "And I am truly glad to see you Jack," said she, after which they walked along with their heads very close together. There was so much to talk about one did not know where to begin. Rachel and the wounded Thornton were for the time forgotten in the ecstacy of this meeting between the long separated friends. Not so Rolfe Ranger, however, the "measly Canuck." Jack spoke of the captain, hinting at his want of feeling where Evelyn was concerned wincing under the clutch of his fin gers. "Forgive me," he finally cried, releasing her arm, "but you said Rachel has two—" "It's this way,' helped out the girl. She then went on to explain how Tom Woodrow had concealed the news of Thornton's wonderful resurrection till he had as he supposed, made sure of the woman he loved. Within the hour of that marriage Rachel had found her (desecrated let- Ur and had confronted and confounded the guilty marshal. "Rachel flouted his protestations of innocense, coming at once to me. She refused to evevi see Woodrow after that, and 'He's been acting scandalous," de-|came on to Washington in search of clared Jack. "I know he got letters from you for I saw him show one to his mess and laugh at something he read from it. I was that mad I could have punched his curly head; I would iiave done tt but for his being an officer, and hitting him would have landed me in the guard house which would have pleased him too blame well. He isn't what we thought him, Evelyn, not by a long ways. He's still a captain, after serving a year. Most officers have distinguished themselves during that time, winning promotion. Even some privates have got above the ranks—" \Yes, Jack, I see," with her gaze fixed ©n the chevrons of his blue " P l h a w !

It was just chance that saved her, however. And Woodrow—" "I« an infernal scoundrel after all," interpolated Jack Perkins, his eyes blazing. "Tell me, Evelyn, that you do not believe this marriage is binding—" "There could be no real marriage, Jack, while Tharaton lived. Papa says Woodrow can be prosecuted for his villainy. More than that, the marshal is found to be short in his accounts with the government, and is somewhere in hiding at the present time. It was a narrow escape for your sister. A detective from Washington is investigating." Jack was terribly shocked.

Some say, "Yes." Mrs. David Goldenberg of Chicago is one of the latter cla^ss, for Mrs. Goldenberg has had the experience herself, she asserts. It was recently that Mrs. Goldenberg dreamed that her father, Isaac SeiJelman, dead for nine months, came to her. "How is everything?" he asked. To which she replied that things were no1 as well as they might be— Her husband was out of work, times were hard, money was scarce. Then, she says, her father handed her a sum of money. "Take this," he taid, "and start a little business with i t " Hands Coins to Her Then he handed her other coins of silver, some were dollars, others 50- cent pieces. As he handed her each coin he told her to whom to give it. "Give this 50 cents to Martin; give this $1 to Nathan," etc. In the morning Mrs. Goldenberg went to the grocery store. She knew she had only $10 in her purse the night before. When she opened her purse to pay for the groceries she found a roll of bills inside and, wondering, took it out. The roll looked exactly like that which her father handed her in her dream. It contained $100. There, too, in the bottom of the purse, she j says, lay silver pieces—11 of them, just as her father had counted them out to her in her dream. M o n e y U n e x p l a i n e d The money is still unaccounted for, and Mrs. Goldenberg believes now that dreams come true—that a miracle has been worked. She refuses to believe otherwise and points, out that no one in her family would be financially able to place such a sum there. Speaking through her 24-year-old son, Martin—for Mrs. Goldenberg, [ who came from Russia three years ago, speaks but little English—she told of her surprise at finding the money. "There is no place that it could come from," she said. "We had no money like that. And I told no one of my dream. I went to the store shortly after I arose, without mentioning it. I thought it just like other dreams. But there the money was, and I haven't the slightest idea how it got there." 0 Cranky Flivver, Cranked in Gear, "Spanks" Owner Chaaea Him AU Over, Butts Him in Retaliation for Hit Mistreatment In thi» historic city, where once Frederick the Great, lover of animals, erected burial mounds for his favorite greyhounds directly outside Suns Souci castle, there has been established a national training school for a type of dog conspicious for the Red Cross insignia carried on his harness--the guide dug for blinded soldiers. Infinite patience must be exercised by the two trainers in charge to prepare the dogs for their task. Those selected are almost invariably female shepherds. Males are apt to forget their duties when they see a good chance for a fight. With the female the maternal instinct, the feeling of caring affectionately for the blind master, is uppermost. Ruecker and Wecherling, the two trainers of the Potsdam kennel, put the dogs through a rigid course of training in which, however, the whip is never applied. The dog must learn to walk slowly, to obey the master's every word, to fetch things for him when desired, not only to avoid holes and protections and ditches dangerous to itself, but also to pull the master over far enough for him also to avoid danger. When the time has come for the dog to pass its final examination the trainer harnesses the dog and bids it lead its teacher, whose eyes are blindfolded for the purpose, through Potsdam. Next the prospective master is sent All blind persons who desire Woman Operator Takes Story of Her Own Son's Death for. guide dogs must take up residence in the training sehool for a period of six weeks, so that master and dog may get used to each other. During the six-week trial period, the shepherd dog remains at the prospective masters' side day and night. The Potsdam trainers figure that no guide-dog lasts longer than four or five years. After that it is a nervous wreck. There have been numerous cases on record of such dogs going crazy from actual nervousness. -o- Statistics recently published put the total number of telephones in use of 22,937,000. this figure being made up as follows: America, 15,- 840,000; Europe, 5.903.000; Asia, 683,000; Australasia, :iHH,000, and Africa, 122,000. WEEK OF AUGUST 10 The week of August 10th in Michigan will be about equally divided between storm and sunshine, the first part being stormy. The wind forces will average higher during the week than is usual for this time of year. This week opens with rams and winds m full force over Michigan territory. Temperatures will also be rising to a degree as high or higher than the average for this time of year. Within 24 hours of eight o'clock Monday evening, August 11, temperatures in Michigan will touch very close to the D5 degree mark. On or about Tuesday storminess will cease temporarily and the temperatures moderate slightly. There may be as much as a day of sunshine or generally pleasant weather in the state following this first storm before another one will be in full force. Rain and wind will be the general characteristics with generous sprinklings of electrical storms as in the first storm center of the week. Temperatures in most parts of the United States east of the Rocky Mountains will be unusually high during first half of this week due to the storm detailed above. During the last half of the week the readings will be more nearly normal while in some of the northern sections of the country decidedly unseasonable cooll, temperatures will be experienced. The end of this week in Michigan will be generally pleasant although by Saturday the sky may begin to appear threatening or unsettled. These unsettled conditions will be the forerunner of a severe storm expected to hit the state about Sunday of next week. Temperatures during next week will not average any where near as high as they are expected to this week. Storminess will probably be as bad next week as in this. Both this week and next will not develop very good radio weather.

Anyway, McLeod lost a bout with his tin Lizzie recently in front of his residence. McLeod was in the act of cranking his little old peanut roadster when things began to happen. Cold and practical automobilists, experts in such things, incline to the belief that McLeod cranked his car at the wrong time, viz: while she was in gear, but McLeod holds to a far different version. Bluntly, McLeod firmly believes that Elizabeth deliberately did it. Be that as it may, the fact is that no sooner had McLeod cranked Elizabeth then Elizabeth became exceedingly cranky. Once cranked, Elizabeth started ahead. McLeod later said that Elizabeth made one jump at him, a fact which greatly surprised him, and naturally, he backed away. Elizabeth, too, naturally, concluded that McLeod was afraid of her, so she took up the chase with enthusiasm. McLeod is authority for the statement that Elizabeth chased him closely for half a block, gaining on him steadily, in spite of his frantic efforts to outdistance the peevish pursuer. McLeod, with Elizabeth close on his heels, tried valiantly to turn a corner in time to escape his persistent pursuer, but it was no go. Just as McLrod reacted trie comer, fc/ftzabfth reached out and slapped him for the count. After attendants at the Mission Emergency hospital bound up cuts on McLeod's scalp and body, Elizabeth's companion voiced the following sentiment: Never crank a cranky car. Concrete Pavements Grow Stronger Year After Year When you vote for a paved road or street, you want to know that you won't be called upon for assessments every now and then to repair or rebuild it Built according to present-day high standards, Concrete roads and streets permanently withstand the heaviest pounding amd grinding of modern traffic. In fact, they grow stronger year after year. That is because their definitely proportioned mixture of sand, pebbles or broken stone, and water, is held together by the everlasting grip of that tenacious binder, portland cement. Concrete Pavements have the repair built out and the maintenance built in. That is why they pay you handsome dividends in satisfaction and service. Firm, rigid, unyielding, and the last word in paving economy, Concrete Roads and Streets are also skid-proof. And their color is a pleasing, light gray—another very important advantage, especial ly for night driving. • • • Watch for advertisements telling about th« many other uses of concrete.

D A R P V ' C NYAL O A l U l l 0 DRUGS STORE It is not unusual for people to forget that lamps need cleaning quite as much as other articles in the room— they also collect dust. A neglected lamp may give only from a half to three-quarters of its rated candlepower. There is a three-fold loss: >oss of light absorbed by the dust; loss of eye-comfort from strained vision; loss of money paid for light not utilized. Lamps ought to be dusted every day; they should be wiped with a damp cloth every week; they should be washed with soap and water every month.

Low-priced meat animals have been a n a t u r a l result of the g r a i n s u r p l u s of 1U20-21, which led to e x p a n d e d livestock operations, the d e p a r t m e n t says. These livestock s u r p l u s e s a r e g r a d u a l l y being worked off, a s reflected in the recent tendency t o w a r d price advances. The peak of crop prices was reached in 1920 when the f a r m price of major crops reached an index figure of .'SO4 as c o m p a r e d with 100 in 1 *J 13. A preciptious decline m crop prices then followed until the end of 1 'J21 when the index figure had dropped to slightly below 100. An advance then i set in, followed by a slight temporj ary recession; t h e n an u p w a r d s w i n g until the index of crops now s t a n d s around 140. The index of livestock prices reached the peak at the beginning of 1919 when it was a r o u n d 220. Prices declined in the next t h r e e y e a r s and by.

Then followed a decline to 150 in 1921. A slight u p w a r d swing brought the index to 175 in 1022, since which d a t e prices have gone slightly down and up, and more recently a g r a d u a l decline is noted, the index in April 1024 s t a n d i n g at about 150.

This however, is not a story of theory but of fact and t h e m e m b e r m a n a g e r not only conducted his season's work successfully but without a single c o m p l a i n t of unfairness. As t h e different varieties ripened m e m b e r s hauled their fruit to the packing house where it was graded, sized, packed and sold.

The plan left t h e individual memb e r s free t o give t h e i r best a t t e n t i o n to the job of picking and as a result the fruit was more carefull y handled than it would have been if t h e owners or m a n a g e r s had been forced t o divide their time b e t w e e n their orchards and t h e i r p a c k i n g houses. T h e r e were no sales of fruit m a d e direct a t t h e o r c h a r d s . This eliminated a n y competition between the individual o r c h a r d s a n d a t e n d e n c y to stabilize prices. Also, it relieved t h e orchard o w n e r s of t h e n u i s a n c e of waitin g on t h e small retail t r a d e in their own o r c h a r d s .

T h u s t h e association becomes a sort of method b a r o m e t e r which should be of very g r e a t value t o the different m e m b e r s . This b a r o m e t e r also ?erves as an indicator to tell the a c t u a l condition of t h e o r c h a r d as r e g a r d s vigor of t r e e s a n d so'l condition? for all t h e fruit w a s g r a d e d f o r size as well as condition a n d a r e c o r d k e p t of t h e n u m b e r of bushels of each size sold. Mr. B e n t l e y carried off the h o n o r s for having t h e highest p e r c e n t a g e of n u m b e r one fruit. Fifty-five p e r cent of his crop fell into this class. One of t h e l a r g e s t c o m m e r c i a l orchards, n o n - r e s i d e n t owned, h a d only 13 per cent of n u m b e r o n e fruit.

It has been shown by actual experiment that from GO per cent to 50 per cent more people stop to inspect the display in a thoroughly well lighted show window than are halted by the half-lighted and discouraging appearance of many store windows. Other tests have demonstrated that business increases fast after an indifferently lighted interior has given place to one in which modern illumination methods are used. Buyers almost invariably will choose a brightly-lighted store in preference to one in which a good lighting is neglected. Competition in trade is best met by high grade lighting.

The colonel knew the y o u n g s e r g e a n t and liked him. J a c k was g r a n t e d a three days leave of absence. To W a s h i n g t o n he went. When he came South the soldier boy passed t h r o u g h the capital city, but had not been able to see much of the place; he would explore it now. He was explicitly forbidden going home, however, and m u s t r e t u r n a t the end of three d a y s on pain of p u n i s h m e n t . Immediately on his a r r i v a l in the T h e boy did not wish to raise any ' ^ity J a c k looked for T h o r n t o n . It false h o p e s in the bosom of his i proved no easy task to locate the b r o t h e r - i n - l a w . S t a r t i n g u p , J a c k ' wounded lieutenant. On t h e t h i r d said as he was l e a v i n g : "I'll see you ; and last d a y of his stay a most s t a r t - a g a i n , T h o r n t o n . Rest easy and * ling s u r p r i s e came to the y o u n g solnever say die. You a r e w o r t h a mil- dier. lion dead men yet." T h e y o u n g fellow w e n t out, not q u i t e s u r e of himself. In t w o weeks Rachel w a s to wed Tom Woodrow. T h e m a t c h had been a y e a r in the m a k i n g a n d the boy had been glad to \ n o w of i t — b u t now! A big, ugly cloud covered the sun »f J a c k ' s n a r r o w sky. He h a d t r e a t - ed T h o r n t o n shamefully—in his mind. d e r e t h e m a n had been f i g h t i n g the c o u n t r y ' s b a t t l e s for a long y e a r ; had stood in the fore f r o n t ; had mingled h i s blood with t h a t of other heroes for the flag; had fully repented of his p a s t defection and had sacrificed an a r m for the cause of the Union. And T o m ? What h a d he done t h a t was so very g r e a t ? J a c k remembered t h a t he had been very loud in his declamations at t i m e s ; in fact very much a p a t r i o t ; very b i t t e r , too bitter the boy t h o u g h t a g a i n s t t h o s e who failed to toe his political l i n e of loyalty. And then a g a i n w h a t had Tom done for the old flag? He had stopped at home, in a comfortable office, and sent his searchers out to hunt down d r a f t - e v a d e r s and other offenders a g a i n s t the lawful a u t h o r i t y of Uncle Sam. To be sure, he w e n t a f t e r the c u l p r i t s personally, n e v e r h a v i n g displayed cowardice, yet as for going South, he had never offered himself for t h a t service. He m a g n i f i e d his office an h u n - dred fold, in fact gloried in a m a n n e r v e r g i n g on the offensive a t times in the g o o d n e s s and high d a r i n g of his own deeds, while d i s p a r a g i n g those of others. Once J a c k called to mind, the m a r s h a l had been offered a capt a i n ' s commission in a crack Western regiment. W h a t were the emolum e n t s of t h e place? " P s h a w ! " exclaimed he when in-j formed. "I can make treble t h a t r i g h t J Racchn e C H A P T E R XXIX. A W o m a n ' * Scorn. \s swoon was of brief duration. She came to herself, sitting up with a g a s p . She was still alone in the little room at the p a r s o n a g e . That letter, the one from Jack r e v e a l i n g the fact that T h o r n t o n Clang still lived, was still clutched in h e r hand. The knowledge had proved a terrible -nock to her, who had within the hour married TUMI W o o d r o w ! The knowledge that there had been a horrible mi-take caused Racnel to leel faint unto death. Her husband and the man buried for him were distinct and s e p a r a t e personalities. The y o u n g woman pinched herself In make sure t h a t she was yet alive and not even d r e a m i n g . T h e r e was the letter in J a c k ' s broad school boy hand, telling the stury in florid language of the year of heroism of the une-time draft-evader. Jack bad not been choice in his language, nor lacking in adjectives, when he pictured T h o r n t o n , wounded, perhaps dying from a rebel bullet, his long years of battling for the old flag, an epic of glory and a t o n e m e n t for h:s past mistaken fanaticism. Her husband was a hero for the flag! Thrilling, glorious, gladsome t h o u g h t ! It swept her like a prodigious fire, The little woman bowed her head, e m i t t i n g a dry sob. The sound of a p p r o a c h i n g steps roused her, Tom was coming back; a carriage was at the door. She must be brave now if never again. She felt so i n d i g n a n t , so scandalized. Woodrow had acted a despicable part. She would show him how a deceived woman could resent such duplicity. She stood up bravely as he e n t e r e d , her brown eyes blazing, her face pale to grayness, her slight form trembling, She held out the letter, "You begin early to open my lethere in Michigan and I don't have to iters, Mr. Wondrow face rebel bullets e i t h e r , " He did n o t ! l o w a n g e r accept the more d a n g e r o u s and less r e m u n e r a t i v e captaincy. J a c k remembered a l l t h i s and began a comparison. Old T h o m t had been headstrong, m i s t a k e n of c o u r s e ; but of t h i s he h a d repented. H a v i n g seen a n e w l i g h t he had for a y e a r been c o u r a g e o u s l y living up to t h i s new a w a k e n i n g in his soul. " B y G e o r g e !

Both could not m i s c a r r y . r e g a r d i n g How she h a n d s o m e she said in hoi- He recoiled a step. The sight of the letter disturbed his usual q u i e t u d e . " W h e r e did you g e t t h a t ? " he asked. " I s it from J a c k ? " " I t is from J a c k . " She stood silent then, him with w i t h e r i n g scorn hated the dark-faced, scoundrel. An h o u r earlier she t h o u g h t she might learn to love this c r e a t u r e . H e smiled in a sickly way, then g r e w sober. " I u n d e r s t a n d , " he said, coolly, " I t ' s t h a t u n f o r t u n a t e little a r m y story. I a m s o r r y for you, Rachel, t r u l y sorry. It would have been better, much better, had you never known.

Oh, you mean, miserable, lowtdown c u r ! " litr s t r e n g t n failing h e r , she sank weakly into a chair. H e : i stood back with folded a r m s , r e g a r d - J jing her from beneath f r o w n i n g j i brows. H e r realized how very unfort u n a t e it was his dropping t h a t letter. He really loved Rachel, yet he had been villain enough to conceal the fact t h a t T h o r n t o n Clang still lived. As for p a l m i n g off t h a t dead logger as T h o r n t o n , t h a t had been an honest mistake of his—-he had been deceived equally with the others. " R a c h e l , " he said at l e n g t h , "I t h r o w myself on y o u r m e r c y . I have not m e a n t to deceive you; on my honor as a m a n I declare it.

However, since he is really dead and at rest, after all his troubles, I t r u s t you will forgive me for 1 making you Mrs. Woodrow— " | " S t o p ! " j Raising h e r white, shocked face to ; his, she pierced him with a look he never forgot. Repulsing him with one ! small hand when he would have advanced to her, she quivering!y u t t e r e d words that cut like a two-edged knife. "It is useless for you to m a k e ex- •cuses, Tom Woodrow. I will not listen. 1 would not acknowledge you as my h u s b a n d though T h o r n t o n were dead when the c e r e m o n y w a s pronounced an hour ago. I love him and him alone. Back, sir! Do not touch me; your fingers would burn my flesh. Living ur dead, T h o r n t o n is my husband, my h e r o ; I am going to h i m ! " ! She rose to her feet, every muscle ,in those delicate limbs seeming hard ; as iron to m e e t the emergency. Drop- I ping her veil, she passed him on her i way out. He t u r n e d and watched her as she moved, his dark face s t e r n and rigidly white, the t h o u g h t t h a t he had really lost her smiting his soul like the h a m m e r of Thor. Rachel, clad in her wedding gown of pale plain cashmere, went down the street. It was a long road to W i n g d a m , yet she meant to go t h e r e , to Evelyn, tell the story of t h a t letter from Jack, and ask the rich m a n ' s d a u g h t e r ' s advice. In any event, the indignant y o u n g wife would go on to Washington, IT Thornton were living she would nurse him back to health, if dead, plant flowers and t e a r s on his grave. The sound of wheels caused her to step aside. A vehicle halted, from ! the seat of which leaned the provost , n a-.-hal. ! " R a c h e l , " he said gently, " t h i s is madness. Get up here and ride. I will t a k e you a n y w h e r e — t o W a s h - ington if you like, and we will invest i g a t e — " ' Rachel u t t e r e d a cry, s p r i n g i n g aside into t h e a r m s of a passing p e d e s t r i a n . "Oh, sir," she pleaded, " p r o t e c t me from this p r e s u m i n g s c o u n d r e l ! " The m a n , a well groomed s t r a n g e r , scowled up at the driver of t h e carr i a g e . "You will go a b o u t your b u s i n e s s , " c o m m a n d e d he, " a n d cease to molest this l a d y . " Woodrow, white with r a g e , raised his whip as if to deal a blow. The s t r a n g e r , instead of quailing, t h r u s t forward a cocked pistol, s n e e r i n g l y r e m a r k i n g : " G o slow, you g o v e r n - m e n t g a m e c o c k !

Will t h e prevalent style of a p a r t - ment houses become igloos? These were questions which Syracuse, N. Y., asked itself as w e a t h e r alarmists prophesied that the e a r t h ' s axis is out of kilter, and thus ha* brought on the period of cold and unseasonable J u n e weather, with the Arctic circles slipping southward. But the alarmists' are rea.-sured by Profc--or ('. H.

" F o r t y - s e v e n years ago w a t e r in ponds and t r o u g h s was frozen on the evening of July 4. I never suffered so much from cold this side of t h e Arctic circle as I did t h a t n i g h t . " That s a m e year, t h e professor said, six inches of snow was visible over C e n t r a l V e r m o n t on A u g . 11. Professor Richardson said t h a t the only scientific method to use in comp u t i n g climate d a t a is t h e comparison of 50-year periods.

ANNOUNCEMENT The story, "Thornton Clang," Conscript," which you have been reading, is now drawing to a close, wHth but a few more weeks to run. The author, James Milford Merrill, a Michigan writer of many years, has now reached a ripe old age and we wish to make a request in his behalf. Will you write him a letter, or even a postal card, telling him how you like the story and what you think of same? This is a very small favor, but it may mean much to Mr. Merrill, as these testimonies will encourage and strengthen him and, greatest of all, may give him greater assistance in selling the story, or in publishing it in book form. Will vou please grant this favor? * THE EDITOR. Address your letter to James Milford Merrill, Grandville, Mich. Shocked and disillusioned, Rachel read over the first few lines in a maze of indescribable astoundment. Something pricked her heart like needles; she breathed hard and low. What was Jack saying? In heavy pen lines, underscored for largest capitals, he was telling her she must not wed Tom Woodrow. "I am writing a similar letter to old Tom, so there shall be no chance for a miscarriage. If I were in Washington I should send a telegram. However, there's lots of time, and one of these letters is sure to get there." What terrible thing had happened'.' Jack was so tantalizing. Down the page wandered the reader's eye. She turned the sheet and read that which caused a wild spasm of shock and pain to cross her features. "Oh, my God!" With a cry like that or a drowning person, Rachel rose numbly to her feet. Paralyzed in every limb, she vainly essayed to move, to speak again. Everything went black; her knees bent and trembled beneath her. Slowly she sank back into her chair. The prickle at heart and brain increased, a fierce smothering thump followed, then all was submerged in blackest night. C H A P T E R XXVIII T h e W o u n d e d S o l d i e r . It was an October morning in Virginia. The air was milder yet scarcely more enjoyable than a Michigan autumnal day. Sergeant Jack Perkins had a short leave to visit for an hour one of the numerous hospitals in the rear of the army. He had many friends in other regiments than his own, especially in the Seventh which had so long rendezvoued at Wingdam. The boy kept a keen eye out for his friends, not excepting Captain Rolfe Ranger, who had boon making desperate love to one of the blackeyed lasses of the Old Dominion, regardless of the fact that he had a sweetheart at the North. Jack was very jealous where his friends were concerned, and of Miss Evelyn Burridge in particular. He walked leisurely along on this bright October morning, whistling softly an old army tune. His Yankee Doodle voice was not with him today. That tune was reserved for only joyful occasions, and his errand this morning was to the sick and suffering. Jack's uniform was somewhat frayed and dulled by the extraordinary campaigning of the past summer. He looked every inch a soldier, however, as he strode alone under Ike glow of the rising sun. He had grown in stature, thickened about the chest and throat, while his face bore the tan of exposure to a southern sun. He was first sergeant of Company A, having expectations of something better in the near future. From the ranks to sergeant in less than a year was not so bad. If the war lasted another twelve months he was sure to land a lieutenant's commission at the very least- Jack halted before a building flying the hospital flag. Saluting the sentinel, showing his pass, he was permitted to enter. The youn£ soldier was not awed at what he saw. Constant contact with scenes of suffering had hardened him in a measure. From cot to cot the youth passed, scanning each face with eager interest. Seeing no one of his acquaintence, he was turning away from the last apartment when a low voice calling, stayed his steps. "Jack—Jack Perkins!" Someone pronounced his name with lingering fondness. Low and tremulous though the voice was it yet had a familiar sound. The boy soldier turned back into the ward. He saw a motion of bedclothing and a lifted hand. Jack went swiftly to the cot and stared down into a pallid yet familiar countenance. He must be mistaken in the identity, however, since the man of whom he was reminded had been dead almost a year —even if living he would have been anywhere than in the Union army. "You seem to know me, sir," said J;.c!;. "Your face reminds me of a man 1 once knew in Michigan, but you are not that chap, since he is dead." "Not quite dead, Jack," groaned the other, "although I am fast going. See!" and he drew down the bedclothes, revealing the stump of an arm. That was shot off by a rebel, and to think I once favored such fellows!" A grim thought ghastly smile wreathed the lips of the speaker. Jack bent closer, trembling visibly. Slowly he traced every lineament of that woebegone countenance. "That's right, Jack Perkins, scan me well. I know what you feel and how bitterly you hated me and my ways back there in Michigan. God knows I ha\ e tried to do penance since then. If I have succeeded—" A half smothered ejaculation from Jack broke the other's speech. "It's old Thornt or I'm a sinner!" exclaimed the astounded boy. He took a turn about the room, rubbed his hands across his eyes, then came back and sent another investigating glance at the invalid soldier. "No mistake, you are Thornton Clang all right, the same as he has been dead a year. How in the name of wonder were you resurrected, old man; and what means you're being in the a r m y 1 " "It's a long story. Jack," huskilyanswered the invalid, smiling faintly. "Sit here and I'll tell vou all about it." "Sure you are strong enough?" "Yes, sit down, I have been longing to see someone I knew. I never guessed that you were here. How long have you been a soldier. Jack?" The man talked without seeming effort, and dazed Jack was glad to listen, 'How long," muttered the boy. "Oh, a good while," and Jack continued to rub his eyes. "It's somkething like a year now. How about vou, Thornton?" "Something more than a year, boy," sighed the other. "After my boy died I experienced a change of h e a r t I went out of Michigan, across the lake, enlisting in an Illinois regiment. One of the first men I found there was Darwin Forbes. He is dead now. He was mortally wounded at Spottsylvania. Before he died he did penance also. Jack. You know how some people, you among the rest. Jack, thought it. was I who shot and killed Corporal Downs. It was Forbes who shot the corporal, and he told it all to several of my comrades, so that crime does not rest against me now, or at least will not when they loam the facts at home." "But the Indian?" queried interested Jack. "Where does he come in?" "You mean Indian Pete. He drugged the guard and got us out. Where he is now I do not know." "I thought he was the scamp," broke in Jack. "HI have it out with the red villain some dav. Go on, Thomt". "There's not so much to tell after all," proceeded Clang. "It was an old regiment in which I found myself, consequently I was soon in the' fore front of battle. I have been shocked and redeemed,Jack, redeemed MOTHER:-Fletcher's Castora is t pleasant, harmless Substitute for Castor Oil, Paregoric, Teething Drops and Soothing Syropt, prepared for Infants in arms and ChBdren all through the blood of my fellow men. I have been u wrongheaded fanatic. My tight against the government was all wrong. I tell you, boy, when I saw men dying for the flag, saw boys younger than you express faith in the Union and smile up to the flag while great wounds ate out their live*, I had a revelation. I am a changed man, Jack, whether you believe it or not." The invalid told his story with many pauses. It prove wonderfully enlightening as well as interesting to his listener. His year of army life had indeed changed the one time state rights Thornton Clang into a stanch Unionist He had sealed his new faith with his blood, and seemed only too anxious to make amends for his past mistakes by laying down his life. "And through all this," cried Jack, "you never once revealed yourself tc your home friends." /'Home friends!" with a cynical laugh. "I have none, Jack. Not a man or a woman up there on Hemlock Run but hates and despises Thornton Clang, the conscript! Tell them when you go back t h a t I became a man at last, Jack. Tell them also the truth about Corporal Downs." "Sure I will," promised Jack, "but vou will be there to tell them yourself." "Not I, Jack. 1 am not going back." "Why not. "There's Rachel—" of the wounded soldier at mention of that name. He moistened his dry lips A spasm of pain crossed the face with his tongue, saying: "That is why I shall never go back, Jack. Rachel lost faith in me at the last. I realized it that night when I stood with her above our dead laddie. My mistakes killed the boy and broke that woman's heart. Oh, Jack, tell her—tell Rachel that I loved her through it all, that I shall die cursing my folly and blessing her dear name forever." Overcome with emotion the wounded soldier sank deeper into his pillows, closing his eyes. His face was blue with a deadly tint. The boy felt alarmed. He realized that all the talk had been too much for the sick man. Jack started to his feet. "Just a moment, my boy," suddenly spoke Clang. "Don't think harshly of me because I have not communicated with home and her. How could I after the mean way I had treated that girl? Oh, Jack, Jack, do not hate me still? Cannot I redeem myself in your eyes? Think of the long weary days of marching, the rain and mud and icy slush, the smoke and blood of battle, the dead and dying all around and I still living, haunted and hated of all the world, unable to die and forget! A dozen times I tried to write to her, as many times I failed. It is now too late! Stoop down, Jack, I want to whisper something." The boy bent low, trembling. His own face was drawn and pale through i^s tan as well it might be. He no longer hated this man who had indeed made bitter amends for the past. There was a horrible thought now gripping the boy's heart, which he was unable to discard. In his pocket there rested a letter from his sister in which she announced her coming marriage to Tom Woodrow. The date for the event was exactly a fortnight off, and Jack remembered how many, many times he had urged the good qualities of this man Woodrow while blistering Thornton Clang with his boyish hatred. Now was he not in p a r t to blame f for what was to take place in that far Michigan community? Clang had redeemed his past; Rachel was still his wife and the man was now worthy of all that great love she had so free- | ly lavished upon him. WTas it true i that she had lost faith, that a year j of supposed widowhood had obliterat- ! ed every affectionate thought of i Thornton Clang from Rachel's bosom? | "I was not the first to win her regard. Jack," went on the sick soldier in a shaking voice. "You know how near I came to losing her to Tom Woodrow." Yes, Jack knew all to well. He | simply nodded without reply and the ; man on the cot went on : "I have been | out of her life for more than a year, j She despised me t h a t night at the bedside of dead Thornty. I realized this I and it was that fact that dictated my ! after movement, I wanted to die. j God knows how I have tried to take j myself out of her life forever. Once I was gone she could go to the other man. Somehow, fate has been against me for so long, but it's coming at last, Jack. I am growing weaker every \ day. I shall not last long, perhaps a j week, perhaps a month, but I shall ! drop out at last, for which I am ' thankful. I am glad you came, my boy. You will straighten my record in her eyes, won't you, Jack?" "If necessary, you bet," blurted troubled Jack. "But you aren't going to die yet a while. It wouldn't be right after what you have gone through. I don't believe Rachel has lost all faith in you, Thornton." The boy could say no more. He was in a dim mist of doubt and fear. Thornton's last six months at Hemlock Run had been craven and wicked enough heaven knew, and it was not impossible that the young wife had finally, after repeated provocation, turned against her husband. Telephoning of Heart Beats Is Newest Life Saver New York—They are telephoning heartbeats now. And scientists say the results may be more wide reaching than even those of phoning photographs. For the stethophone, the new electric stethoscope developed by engineers of the Western Electric Co., is expected to throw new light on the treatment of heart disease, and the early detection of tuberculosis. It makes possible the wholesale "listening-in" on the murmurs that mean so much in diagnosing heart and lung disease. Five hundred physicians attending a medical convention in Chicago sat spellbound as they heard together the regular "thump, t h u m p " of a patient's heart, interspersed with the hissing sound of a leaky heart valve. Students in the University of Pennsylvania medical school have used the new device in their studies, and find it an enormous advance over the old way of listening in rotation. The professor in charge explains the case, and then all listen in at once. A few commets, and all listen again. Then the patient is taken away, and another one brought in. Perhaps the patient does not appear before the class at all—the stethophone is taken to his bedside and connected by wires to the classroom. The stethophone consists of a three-stage vacuum tube amplifier mounted on wheels like the familiar tea wagon. The sounds are picked up by pressing an electrical chestpiece against the patient's body. After amplification the electrical currents go to head receivers equipped either with stethoscope tubes or covered with soft rubber against which the listener presses his own stethoscope. A group of electrical filters cut out undesired sounds so the listeners can concentrate on what is most important. By using the stethophone as a "microscope" for body sounds, physicians hope soon to be able to make earlier diagnosis of tuberculosis. In childbirth, too, the ease with which the child's heartbeats can be followed may save many lives. The physician or nurse can listen continuously, either through a head set with a long cord, or by connecting a loud speaker. One grave danger to the child is indicated by a change in its pulse, and when this appears instant action must be taken to save its little spark of life. o—— In spite of the great d -tanre at which most live stock is raised, NVw York City is one of the largest .slaughtering centers in the country, ranking next to Chicago and Kansas C ty ir the number of cattle and calve. butchered. Boy Sees Backward W r i t i n g H*» to B e H e l d t o M i r r o r to R e a d It W E E K O F J U L Y 27 The weather during the first two or three days of this week in Michigan is expected to be fair and sunshiny with the temperatures increasing as the middle of the week approaches. Tuesday and Wednesday will be the warmest days of this week in this state produced by the inflowing of the warm air from the south at this time. These conditions will result in more or less falling of rain during the middle part of this week. Precipitation will occur both with and without electrical storms, which will ordinarily be prominent at this time. Immediately following this storm period, when the winds will shift to the west and northwest, temperatures in this state will drop rapidly to readings below the seasonal normal. The week will end with moderate temperatures during the daylight hours but quite cool during the evening and early morning hours. Biff T o r n a d o P r e d i c t e d As we write this forecast straggling reports are coming in regarding the terrible and sudden tornadoes that visited sections of central Illinois and northern Ohio June 28th where hundreds of people have been killed and thousands of dollars of damage done by wind and rain. Neither the government's weekly forecast covering the week in which this storm occurred nor the daily forecast preceeding the event gave even a hint of what might be expected. In fact, the forecast of 24 hours preceeding gave the following for the northern Ohio section: "Moderate variable winds." Readers of Prichard's Weather Forecast, however, will recall the forecast covering the week of June 22nd specifically declared t h a t "st*>rm conditions during latter p a r t of week are expected to be more or less severe in this and other states of the Central group—In some sections there will be local tornadoes—heavy local rains and some very high winds." This again proves 'our contention that the laws of nature, which we use in making up our forecasts, are superior to man made instruments which record these atmospheric events only at th« time they happen. i Fairmont, Va.—Sam Tiana, a j fourth grade pupil in a Fairmont public school, has a mirrored vision.

The next step n e c e s s i t a t e d a detailed e x p l a n a t i o n to the m o t h e r of the m e t h o d s children use at an early a«e to o b t a i n their own way.

A d i e t a r y was carefully prescribed and t h e m o t h e r was i n s t r u c t e d to place before t h e child at each meal only m o d e r a t e p o r t i o n s of food. She a g r e e d t h a t the food should be left before the child for a sufficient period to p e r m i t him to eat slowly, yet not lonp e n o u g h to p e r m i t him to play with it, and t h a t then it w a s to be r e m o v e d and t h e child given n o t h i n g between m e a l s except the e x t r a milk prescribed because he was u n d e r w e i g h t .

T h e whole plan was explained to the child, and a c h a r t given on which success at any meal would be m a r k e d by a gold s t a r . At t h e end of six m o n t h s , d u r i n g which t h e o u t l o o k seemed at t i m e s very discouraging, t h e following report w a s m a d e : "The child is doing r e m a r k a b l y well, r a t s all vege t a b l e s including c a r r o t s , spinach and s t r i n g beans", still h a s a s t r o n g dislike for milk but j t a k e s one glass per d a y .

" T h e r e can be no question as to the practical value of clinics whose chief c o n c e r n is t h e study of the m e n - tal health of children, Childhood is not only the o p p o r t u n e time but the only time to i n a u g u r a t e a p r o g r a m of m e n t a l health.

One day, as he w a s hopping t h r o u g h the wood, t h e nice kind T a i l o r Bird said to h i m : "I'll m a k e you a flying suit if you'll give be seven lollypops."

It was a w o n d e r f u l suit with a pair of wings and a tail to steer by. No sooner did the little rabbit have it on t h a n he gave a hop, skip and j u m p and a w a y he went over the h o u s e s and over the steeples, over the cities and over the peoples. Goodness, how he did g o ' A f t e r a mile and m a y b e a smile, he said to himself: "I m u s t n ' t lose my wav.

In.-pection of t h e premises w h e r e the hogs o r i g i n a t e d showed t h a t none of the cattle were infected and that no dairy p r o d u c t s from any public c r e a m e r y had been fed to the swine. With this possible course of infection eliminated the v e t e r i n a r i - ans t u r n e d t h e i r a t t e n t i o n to the poultry. S l a u g h t e r of a few suspicious looking fowls r e v e a l e d the presence of avian t u b e r c u l o s i s . This was the case on more t h a n two-thirds of the p r e m i s e s visited.

Feed Screenings to Livestock The wheat screenings wasted in the spring-wheat -ta*e- last year could have heen fed to more than ;},oO0,00(J lambs and r e t u r n e d to the f a r m e r s by way of increased weight of the lambs more than $8,500,000, the United S t a t e s D e p a r t m e n t of A g r i c u l t u r e declares in urging f a r m e r s to s e p a r a t e screenings from the wheat on the f a r m and feed it to livestock. N e a r l y 12,000,000 bushels of Screenings were produced last year by s p r i n g - w h e a t g r o w e r s in North Dak o t a , South Dakota, Minnesota and M o n t a n a , the d e p a r t m e n t says. The Cost of t h r e s h i n g this dockage was over $ 6 7 5 , 0 0 0 and the freight cost of h a u l i n g it to m a r k e t was more than ^ 8 0 0 , 0 0 0 . The growers received nothing for the dockage, and in fact the p r e s e n c e of the dock'ige in the wheat often m e a n t lower grain prices. S c r e e n i n g s can be cleaned out of Wheat and rye at the time of threshing or at the farm granaries at a cost of 2 to 3 cents a bushel, the departm e n t says. Cleaning the grain will often raise the grain one or more g r a d e s and c l e a n e r seed wheat will res u l t in higher yields per acre. S p r i n g "U'neat f a r m e r s who cleaned their "market wheat on the farm last year •gained over ." cents a bushel as a result of cleaning, it is pointed out. S c r e e n i n g s may be turned to valuable a c c o u n t by feeding them to livestock, the d e p a r t m e n t recommends. M o r e livestock will mean b e t t e r bala n c e d f a r m i n g and the conservation of soil fertility. The following g e n e r a l points in feeding s c r e e n i n g s are e m p h a s i z e d by the d e p a r t m e n t : Always grind s c r e e n i n g s before f e e d i n g to p r e v e n t s p r e a d of weed seeds. For sheep, feed good wheat screenings with clover or alfalfa hay, and t h e y will be w o r t h as m u c h as good w h e a t . F o r hogs, two p a r t s of heavy s c r e e n i n g s , g r o u n d and mixed with one p a r t corn is an excellent feed. The p a l a t a b i l i t y is i n c r e a s e d by cooking, which m a k e s g r i n d i n g u n n e c e s - sary, as cooking kills the weed seeds. For cattle, feed a good g r a d e of recleaned s c r e e n i n g s with good quality l e g u m e hay, or with silage and some protein meal. For poultry, s c r e e n i n g s may be fed in the scratch m i x t u r e or with the mash. Since it is difficult to g r i n d the .mall, h a r d - c o a t e d seeds to d e s t r o y their ability to g r o w , t h e y should be s e n a r a t e d by r e c l e a n i n g the s c r e e n - ings over a screen with p e r f o r a t i o n s o n e - f o u r t e e n t h of an inch in d i a m e - ter. The r e c l e a n e d s c r e e n i n g s m a y then be g r o u n d by an o r d i n a r y grinder.

The site for a w a t e r i n g t r o u g h should be on a convenient bit of well drained g r o u n d . A small knoll is desirable if it is easily obtained and the site should, if possible, be d r a i n e d , ur paved with concrete in order to prevent the f o r m a t i o n s of mud holes from the w a t e r splashed about by the stock or flooding of the t r o u g h .

Th:~ style of reinforcin g will form a lattice work of rods in the bottom and -ides of the tank. When th'- forms are finished the concrete should be mixed. The concrete used in the t a n k should be a l, li, 'A m i x t u r e , t h a t is, l cubic foot of p o r t l a n d cement to 2 cubic feet of sand and 3 cubic feet coarse pebbles or' crushed rock. The w a t e r , sand and rocks should all be clean a n d i'iX'n from dirt and sticks. Before s e t t i n g the inside form in place a laver of concrete is laid i>t\ A c o n c r e t e t a n k like this one m a y be c h e a p l y and easily c o n s t r u c t e d and will b e a lasting, s a n i t a r y i m p r o v e m e n t t o e v e r y farm a short time, and will be a l a s t i n g , s a n i t a r y i m p r o v e m e n t to the f a r m as long as a t a n k is needed. The g r o u n d on which the bottom of the t a n k is to set should be t h o r o u g h - ly packed, leveled and sloped a w a y from the sides of the t r o u g h so t h a t there will be no d a n g e r of the foundation w a s h i n g a w a y from u n d e r n e a t h . The forms for t h e outside a r e built like a wall with l inch b o a r d s and 2x4's on the smoothed off g r o u n d . They should be firmly placed and securely braced in order to hold the concrete while it is setting. The c i r c u l a r form for the inside of the t a n k should "be built before any concrete is mixed as it is n e c e s s a r y to put it in place as soon as the floor is placed in o r d e r t h a t the concrete for the walls may be placed immediately. If the concrete in the floor is allowed to set before the walls are placed the concrete will not unite satisfactorily and will leak. The walls of the trough should be give' ;m o u t w a r d slope on the inside so t h a t when the tank freezes the p r e s s u r e will force the ice u p w a r d and prevent b u r s t i n g of the tank. When the f o r m s have been completed the r e i n f o r c i n g rods should be bent and fitted so t h a t they m a y quickly hi? put in their places. They consist of o n e - q u a r t e r inch round iron rods. Rods a r e placed r u n n i n g lengthways of the t r o u g h 7 inches a p a r t . When thc concrete is placed in the walls the horizontal reinforcing rods the floor to about half the thickness intended. Reinforcing rods should t h e n be laid to form the n e t w o r k on i the bottom, c a r e being taken t h a t they j a r e placed so as to be in the middle of the walls and floor. When these ' rods a r e in .place the r e m a i n d e r of the concrete for the floor is placed and the form for the inside lowered into position and fastened. No time should be lost in b e g i n n i n g to place the concrete in the walls a s p u t t i n g wet concrete on concrete p a r t - ly set will result in a leaky j o i n t . Acs t h e concrete is placed in the walls the reinforcing rods r u n n i n g h o r i z o n t a l - ly t h r o u g h the walls should be put in position as the wall fills. These rods lie about seven inches a p a r t a n d finish forming the reinforcing lattice work in the walls. As the concrete is placed in the walls a spade should be worked down between the f a r m s and the concrete in order to force the larger- rocks back into the m a s s t h u s i n s u r i n g a fine m i x t u r e next to the f o r m s and a smooth, dense s u r f a c e . As soon as the concrete is set enough to be self s u s t a i n i n g the inside form -hould be carefully removed and the inside of the t r o u g h painted with ! a heavy coat of a m i x t u r e of p o r t l a n d ' c e m e n t and w a t e r mixed to a b o u t the | consistency of cream, with a broom or i b r u s h .

A Liking fur thc Job In order- to succeed in d a i r y i n g a man must like the business. The most successful d a i r y m e n are those who are most e n t h u s i a s t i c and must interested in their work. It is perfectly proper to a s s u m e that the interest and e n t h u s i a s m uf those men have contributed largely to this success. Our- likes usually develop from some well founded reason. Boys are prune to become interested in d a i r y i n g when they a r e g r o w n up on a farm where d a i r y i n g is one of the m a j o r interests. While t h a t is t r u e to a large extent, we a r e also a c a l c u l a t i n g people ami if it looks as though t h e r e is to be money made in d a i r y i n g our liking for it will g r o w a m a z i n g l y . In trie same m a n n e r a man may be persuaded to c h a n g e from some other t y o - of f a r m i n g to d a i r y i n g . If calm reason shows the wisdom of such a c h a n g e the liking for the business is v - r y likely to t a k e c a r e of itself. The d a i r y business must pay or we lose interest in it. Dollars have g r e a t - er weight t h a n s e n t i m e n t . If the dollars are f o r t h c o m i n g we n a t u r a l l y develop the necessary liking for the work. Any line of f a r m work must pay financially. It must do t h a t primarily because we follow it in order to make a living for the family and to receive the c o m f o r t s of life for the members thereof. It must pay in order to compete wit h other lines, for if one line does not pay a m a n will c h a n g e to s o m e t h i n g more r e m u n e r a - tive. Dai l y i n g does pay. This is proved by m a n y splendid e x a m p l e s of success on the p a r t of d a i r y m e n . A t r a v e l e r who recently passed t h r o u g h an old dairy section was filled with e n t h u s i - asm r e g a r d i n g the splendid homes and schools and the most excellent conditions he found. D a i r y m e n have succeeded. D u r i n g the p a s t two or t h r e e y e a r s t h e r e h a v e been m a n y m a n u f a c - t u r i n g concerns, national in scope who have reported t h a t they found business conditions best in d a i r y d i s t r i c t s . This j u s t i f i e s a n y man in the good work he has s t a r t e d or in m a k i n g Lhe s t a r t . The fact t h a t d a i r y i n g can be p u t on a basis of dollars and cents adds interest to the work. To weigh the milk from each cow* and to test it regularly and to have an a c c u r a t e estimate of the value of the feed ettch one has consumed gives a p e c u l i a r business-like aspect to each and adda to the p l e a s u r e of doing the work. The breeding of d a i r y cows for herd improvement is a factor t h a t lends wonderfully to the interest. Not m a n y y e a r s ago a professor of d a i r y i n g stated t h a t it was impossible to produce a herd t h a t would a v e r a g e 400 pounds of b u t t e r fat per y e a r . Now within the distance of a few city blocks of the class room w h e r e he made t h a t s t a t e m e n t is a herd of little J e r s e y cows which exceeds t h a t a m o u n t considerably. The o w n e r of t h a t herd of J e r s e y s h a s been interested in his work a n d has had the satisfaction of doing s o m e t h i n g in cons t r u c t i v e b r e e d i n g t h a t h a s won him distinction. P r o d u c i n g high quality d a i r y products is r e m a r k a b l y i n t e r e s t i n g . N e a r a city of some i m p o r t a n c e t h e r e is a little d a i r y w h e r e for y e a r s special milk for babies has been produced. This milk is from h e a l t h y cows. It is milked by men who are known to be free from disease. It is h a n d l e d in vessels t h a t a r e absolutely clean and is delivered packed in ice. T h e o w n e r is t r u l y a public benefactor. He feels t h a t he is fulfilling his calling in doing t h i s . T h e m o t h e r s who use the milk from t h i s m a n ' s d a i r y believe t h a t this d a i r y m a n is a g r e a t h u m a n benefactor. The d a i r y m a n may find profit or he m a y find s e n t i m e n t in his work. T h e r e is in his w o r k t h a t which will j u s t i f y the best effort he may put into it.—The Iowa Homestead. In n u t r i t i o n studie*, with cows milking as much as 45 p o u n d s daily a n d fed c o m m o n feed, it is found t h a t one ounce of salt a day satisfies the cow 's n e e d . Begin now to k e e p milk and b u t t e r - fat r e c o r d s , so you can tell how good your cows are a n d w h e t h e r t h e y a r e i m p r o v i n g . T h e w o r l d ' s best cow has a record of m o r e t h a n 33,000 p o u n d s of milk in a year. How does your herd c o m p a r e ?

The author, James Milford Merrill, a Michigan writer of many years, has now reached a ripe old age and we wish to make a request in his behalf. Will you write him a letter, or even a postal card, telling him how you like the story and what you think of same? This is a very small favor, but it may mean much to Mr. Merrill, as these testimonies will encourage and strengthen him and, greatest of all, may give him greater assistance in selling the story, or in publishing it in book form. Will you please grant this favor? THE EDITOR. Address your letter to James Milford Merrill, Grandville, Mich. CHAPTER XXVII. Jack's Letter It is October again, a full year since the Seventh regiment broke camp at Camp Willcox and faced toward the South. It has been an eventful year in army circles, a year fraught with fearful havoc on the battlefield. Rachel has held her place at the Logtown home during this time. Her face has renewed color, the brown eyes have regained brightness and snap, since the past has in a measure gone into the tomb of memory. Gay letters from Jack, filled with brave optimism, come now and again to cheer this sister at home. He tells the story of march and raid, of life in camp, and once writes of a battle in which himself takes active part. 'Never as much as a scratch yet, Sis," he writes, after detailing a scene of terrible carnage. "The good God keeps your brother intact, and I believe He means to do so to the end. Grant is doing things in Virginia, and I feel it in my bones that we are to win this great war before many months roll away." And this was to prove true. The past season had been indeed a battle summer. Grant, in crossing the Rapidan, hurled aside precedent and "proposed to fight it out on this line if it takes all summer." The summer had gone, autumn had come and the indomitable Galena tanner was still on t h a t line, hammering away at the gates of Petersburg. History had been writ in letters of blood. From the Rapidan to Richmond was one red windrow of dead men who counted life as nothing compared to the welfare of the Nation. The red lanes of the Wilderness, and no less sanguinary vales and hillocks of Spottsylvania painted the cost of saving a nation in letters of blood. Jack had a part in all this. Brave, ready, handsome old Jack, the humble shingle-weaver's son, but now a hero for Old Glory! It was worth all it cost of course. Rachel felt that it was, yet there was a tinge of sadness j thing!" suddenly broke out Evelyn. • measly Canuck" in one of his letters to Rachel, recounting some questiona b l e escapades of his, and of a flirtation the young officer was carrying ion with a rich Virginia planter's, daughter. "I wouldn't care a r a p , " wrote Jack, "only for Evelyn. I know she writes to the captain, for he has shown some of her letters to brother officers. Isn't villainous'.' I never though Rolfe Ranger as mean as he is. But whatever you do, don't tell Evelyn I write this. I don't wish to be known as putting in my oar at all. Maybe Evelyn don't care; I hope she don't. I am certain if I was sure she liked me better than any other in the world I wouldn't flirt, would you, Sis? I am afraid my little chum is to have a sorry time if she does care for the blamed Canuck, as I am fearful she does." Rachel kept silent about Jack's effusive description of Captain Ranger's shortcomings. She had no means of ascertaining the girl's exact feelings as between the two soldiers. Were Jack a little older; if Jack had money, or even prospects, then how glad she—Rachel—would have been to note a growing affection between her brother and the millowner's daughter. There happened one thing, however, that set the two natures jangling. Up to October the two feminine friends were much together and deeply in love with one another. People, seeing the two together, often took them for sisters. Although there was no resemblance in face or form, save that both were slender and pretty, yet Rachel, an inch taller, had as young and girlish a countenance as had Evelyn. None would have suspected the troubles the elder had passed through judged from a glance into her rose-leaf countenance and smiling brown eyes. It was only when alone that Rachel allowed a sadness to dash the beauty of it all. She held regrets that a lifetime could not efface. The battles and blood and glory had deeply affected her; and what might have been had Thornton, her Thornton, been true to the flag, haunted and made gloom for every fiber of her being. "Why, Rachel Perkins Clang, you don't mean a word of it!" expostulated Evelyn one morning as the two were riding along the river road between Wingdam and Logtown. "The idea of you marrying that Tom Woodrow! Why, your husband hasn't been dead a year! I can't think—" "Never try to think in a case of this kind, Evelyn," uttered Rachel, the faintest bit of color reddening her cheek. "It is true that I am to marry Mr. Woodrow. That is better than living as a hired help in someones hot kitchen. By marrying I lose nothing and gain much." "Well, I don't know," murmured the amazed younger woman. "Of course it is as one looks at it, I suppose." Evelyn bit her lip to keep back words she realized were better left unsaid. The ride grew monotonous, with neither occupant of the phaeton speaking a word. "For mercy sake, Rachel, sav somein her heart all those hot, horrible months. Evelyn had not forgotten her friend of the phaeton ride. Many times dur- .ing the year had the girl called for Jack's sister, and together the two had ridden the country roads and breathed the wild free air of the balsamic woods. It was very refreshing to Rachel, who had learned to like Evelyn. The girl, although breezy as a spring zephyr, was deep down a true, sweet young nature which had enduring qualities. She had absolutely no pride of property, rich or poor being alike to her so that they rang true in their natures. The two compared letters from Jack since the boy corresponded with both. Evelyn talked of Jack and Captain Ranger with equal enthusiasm, so her listener had no means of knowing which held the deeper place in her heart. Jack mentioned "that Can't you see that I'm dying of curiosity?" "Why so curious, Evelyn, since you disapprove—" "Pshaw, now, Miss Sobersides, what if I do disapprove, it cant matter a whit to you. I admit that I don't like Tom Woodrow, and I do love you, so there's my reason for thinking you aren't doing right." "I suppose so,'" murmured Rachel, irrelevantly. "There is really nothing to tell. Tom and I have been good friends and neighbors ever and ever so long; now why should I not marry him since he wishes me t o ? " "You should, I suppose—that is, if you love him." "I appreciate him as a long time friend—" "And you dont love him!'* exclaimed the girl. "Then don't marry him, Rachel. Let your neart speak for you. Do you know.

To marry without love, Rachel, is* positively wicked." "Respect may ripen into love." "Don't you believe any such nonsense. This Woodrow is—well, he u better than some perhaps, but he wouldnt suit me at all; and, Rachel, there are the two graves out yonder have you forgotten them'.'" The voice of the speaker was low, plaintively sad. N'o indeed, Rachel had not forgotten. To her the man whose life had been crushed out beneath cruel pine logs was still a hero. To the world he had been a coward and a traitor, to her a kind and loving husband. But for the ill-timed interference of others he would have been a hero for the flag. Let others think what they chose, Thornton was hers to love and cherish forever. S^e was to marry Woodrow because h^e wished it, and because she pitied and, liked in a friendly way her old suitor. She did not explain all this to Evelyn, she did not think it necessary. A tear moistened the cheek of Rachel Clang as she turned her face toward her companion. "It would do no good to try to explain, Evelyn," she said. "I know all you would say, all you think, but I have weighed everything and shall marry Mr. Woodrow." "Of course you will, dear," vouchsafed Evelyn. "I had no idea of being able to influence an old lady like you. Does Jack know?" "Yes, Jack knows." "And approves?" "Yes, he approves, in fact, he has always favored Tom." Evelyn spoke no more. The remainder of the ride became burden-, some to both. Rachel was not sorry when she set foot once more in her workday home. Somehow she felt that a cloud had dropped between Evelyn and herself. It was not pleasant, but the girl would get over it after a time. Woodrow had not been persistent in his wooing. He had respected the feelings of the one he loved, had watched and waited with the quiet goodness of an old time martyr for' the reaction in his favor which he felt was sure to come. Gradually the old time days seemed to slip back into the life of the much suffering Widow Clang. Some of the bright sunlight, which had blessed her girlhood stole into her soul, persuading her that she might become measurably happy again. } It was in the early morning of a bright October day that the two went* to the home of the village parson, where they were quietly joined in holy wedlock. The good minister's wife and daughter were the sole witnesses to the brief ceremony. With the words, "I pronounce you twain husband and wife," a new song entered the woman's soul. She smiled, and yet her lips were very tightly welded; her cheeks flamed an instant, only to go white as chalk. Even the kiss of her husband chilled and frightened her. Tom led her to an adjoining room, seating her at the window. "Now," he said, "I shall not keep you long waiting. I have purchased tickets at the Wingdam station for Washington. You long have heard and felt the rumblings of this war, soon you shall see some of the sacrifices at close range. We will call on President Lincoln, visit the camps about the capitol, and meet Jack." A new light danced in her eye at mention of her brother. 'Despite the new relationship she had taken on, Jack seemed dearer to her than ever. With a heavy sigh she sat back and looked wistfully into space. "I shall like that—seeing Jack," she said. "As for the other sights 1 am afraid I shall shrink from them like the little coward that I am. You won't be long gone, T o m ? " This last as he announced his intention to go at once to look after baggage and a carriage. "Not long, Rachel dear." He bent low and kissed her cheek, then withdrew from the room. Something fell to the floor as the door closed behind him—a letter with buff covering such as the soldiers used in the field. Rachel sat for ten minutes stone blind to her surroundings. Then her gaze dropped to the carpet and noted the letter. She drew it to her with the toe of her dainty boot and picked it from the floor. She recognized the chirography at a glance. It was Jack's, and the letter was addressed to "Mrs. Rachel Clang, Logtown, Mich." An ejaculation of surprise fell. The letter was for her and Tom had forgotten to deliver it, which was very like the careless fellow. It was not surprising with such a load of cares on his mind. On turning the buff envelope over another surprise met her eye—the letter had been opened. Surely Tom was presuming on his husbandly prerogative on short notice. Rachel could not smother a feeling of indignation. Tom had no right to break the seal of her letters, not even though he were her husband. She remembered how strictly honorable Thornton had been in this respect^ and these new thoughts troubled and shocked her. Slowly she slid the folded sheet from its covering. It was dated at a camp near Washington, and it was a fortnight old. How long had this letter been in Tom's possession? Its appearance indicated some days, at least, at which the woman's indignation blazed afresh. The solemn surprise that awaited the perusal of that letter quite revolutionised her feelings toward the man she had within tbc hour married. (To he Continued) Girl, 12, Gone, Suffered From Sleeping Sickness] Detroit.—An attack of sleeping sickness two years ago, from which she has never fully recovered, is believed by the police to be responsible for the disappearance of Helen Scrobie, 12 years old, who left her home at 3718 Maybury Grand avenue. The child disappeared from home about a year ago and was gone for several days, the police say. When last seen she waa wearing a pink and white dress, and a red hat. 0 Michigan was explored by the French in 1610, a decade before the landing of the pilgrims at Plymouth. Jean Nocolet, the first white settler, arrived in 1634.

Name -. — P. O - -.-, Michigan WEEK OF JULY 20 The week beginning July 20th in* Michigan is expected to average cool and wet. The most severe storm period of the wek will come at the close while there may be minor storm action around Tuesday and Wednesday. The week opens with the tail of a storm passing to the east. At the beginning of this wetk in this state temperatures will fall slightly as a result of the higher barometric pressure expected to pas* over or near the Lake region. This condition will induce clearing skies and moderate breezes to visit the state during first couple of days of the week. About Tuesday or Wednesday theremay be a reaction towards showers and thunder storms but, if this is the case, they will soon pass and the sun will again shine. The temperatures throughout most parts of the state will show a rising tendency beginning on or immediately after the middle of the week. Not later than Thursday temperatures will show a rapid increase in Michigan reaching a climax about Friday or Saturday. The barometer during these last days of the week will fall to relatively low readings and as a result there will be numerous thunder showers and more or less heavy rains. Next W e e k Cool; August Erratic We do not believe that next week will average quite as wet as the week of July 20th but temperatures will still remain below the seasonal average. Some very changeable, sudden and unusual weather is to be expected in Michigan during the month of August. Some parts of the state will not receive enough moisture for t h e best interests of the growing crops. The winds for the month will average stronger than usual and there is g r e a t danger of destructive tornadoes and hail storms. Classified Advertising BABY CHICKS BABY CHICKS—SPECIAL FOR JUNE, July.

D r o p p i n g b o a r d s and roost s u p p o r t s should be of c o n c r e t e , but the roosts t h e m s e l v e s should be of wood, not too large in size, with beveled edges and m a d e r e m o v a b l e for s u n n i n g and s p r a y i n g with disinfectant.

The floor should be finished smooth and kept covered with straw. A sand box p a r t i t i o n e d off in the floor space gives the hens o p p o r t u n i t y for dustings t h e i r f e a t h e r s and exercising.

JUSTICE OF THE PEACE C\ Albert Fret* FOR RESULTS—USE W A N T S • FORGETTING We are so used nowadays to wonderful things that we are apt to forget their application to our needs. Some people for instance, forget that a very efficient general servant waits behind the electric push-button in their homes.

Thorn, director of the j habit clinics of the Community Health I Association of Boston, which were I started in 1921, has written a report for the U. S. Children's Bureau on their work. The clinics attempt to correct the undesirable conduct or personality defects of children under their care and to promote the mental health of these children just as health clinics attempt to cure physical defects and promote bodily health. Only 19 out of 130 children treated by the clinics last year did not improve, Dr. Thorn states in his report. Some of the habit problems treated, in addition to temper tantrums, were de- .structiveness, pugnacity and shyness, delinquency a..d acute personality changes.

These allowances are usually paid through ''compensation funds," companies organized to finance the allowances in a way that will equalize the financial burden among employers of any one industry or region. It is reported that there are 120 compensation funds including 7,600 employers, distributing family allowances amounting to nearly 100 million francs a year to 800,- 000 workers. In many cases the whole allowance is paid directly to tne mother of the family instead of to the wage-earner.

There are new foods which are not improved in texture and flavor by the use of some type of fat, cream, butter, lard, suet or oil. In some foods, particularly meats and poultry, the fat content is a means of judging their choiceness. Beefsteak or roast, for example, should have a good marbling of suet; t h a t is, fine particles of fat mixed in with the lean. In cooking this fat melts, intermingles with the lean, yv.i can insert the lardoon quite satisfact irily by using a steel skewer.

The fat j habit of handling eggs by the dozen near the rind is firmer, but all of the slice may be used, especially if the pork has been thoroughly chilled first. The strips of fat pork are called lardoons and are inserted into the meat by means of a larding needle. These needles are made in several sizes to hold lardoons of different thickness, large ones for cuts, as fillet of beef and roast, and small ones for game, as pigeons and quail. One end of the larding needle is made t o hold the lardoon while the other end is pointed. To lard, insert the pointed end of t h e needle into the meat and make a atitch from one-half to one-quarterinch deep and about one inch long. Pull the needle through, leaving the «nds of the lardoon projecting. As t h e needle is pulled through, press •with the fingers the end of the needle holding the lardoon so that it will slip t h r o u g h easily. Continue inserting lardoons a t regular intervals. Cut the e n d s even, or if the lardoons are long, tie them into a knot. If yon do not have a larding needle still persists. As every housekeeper knows there is the greatest difference in the &ize of eggs, even in the same box; and the most up-to-date cookbooks will call for "a cup of egg whites" or even better, so many "ounces" of egg white, rather than a specific number of eggs. If women generally would weigh their eggs and persuade dealers that a dozen very small eggs is not worth as much as a dozen fine big ones, the custom of selling eggs by weight would soon become established. The United States Department of Agriculture favors this system of selling eggs as being fair to both buyer and seller. It would encourage the proper sorting and grading of eggs on the part of the producer, and the consumer wno round ner iamuy satisfied with little eggs could get them cheaper and leave th« big ones for somebody else. o Belle Isle is considered one of the n: said the good-natured Billy Goat and over the river they wi n t .

Telephone Operator's Headset in 1880 Was Like Set of Heavy Truck Harness Lansing.—Now that the fall cam-; sources as provided by the Constitupaign is coming on for the election of Governor and some of the candidates for that high office are going about the state criticizing state expenditures, perhaps it would be timely through the medium of your paper to give to the people of Michigan a true statement of the income and expenditures of the state. Being a member of the Administrative Board, by virtue of my position as Secretary of State, I am in perhaps as good a position to know whereof I speak as anyone in the state, and the figures which I give below are plain, cold facts and nothing but facts—neither untruths nor half truths—and I stand ready to verify any or all of these figures at any time. illichigan, as a state, has several sources of income. Its first source of income is the state tax levied upon all the real and personal property of the state, which tax for the year 1923 amounted to approximately $16,- 00,000. The second source of revenue is the automobile tax money, certificates of title, operators' and dealers' licenses, and transfers of license collected by this offiice, which will lected by this office, which will year now closing, in my judgment, to about $10,500,000 and perhaps a little more. The third source of revenue is the so-called corporation franchise tax, which amounts to approximately $5,- 500,000. The fourth source of revenue is the so-called miscellaneous fees and revenue of the state, which amounts to $3,500,000 for the first eleven months of the year. Included in this sum is the money received for tax on bonds and mortgages amounting to approximately $1,000,000; interest on state deposits amounting to approximately $425,000, and money received for the support of private patients at state institutions amounting to $842,000. The fifth source of revenue is the primary school money, that is to say, the money collected by the state from all the railroad companies, telephone and telegraph companies, and money tion. This sum amounted last year to approximately $11,800,000. The sixth and last source of revenue is the money received from the sale of highway bonds, the people having voted to sell $50,000,000 of these bonds and the Legislature having enacted a statute that $10,000,- 000 worth should be sold e ach year, the money being used for the building of good roads. This sum, therefore, of course amounts to $10,- 000,000. The total state revenue as above set forth approximating the sum of $57,300,000 is therefore the total amount of money received by the state from every source. Now as to the disbursements. It is the favorite cry of ambitious candidates for Governor that if they are elected they will reduce state expenditures by 50 per cent. I have heard this statement made many times. Why they choose 50 per cent 1 do not know, except that it is as easy to say as anything else. Let us examine into the expenditures and see if they will. Please remember that the taxes and all the taxes assessed upon land and personal property in Michigan for state purposes is $16,000,000, so let us see what becomes of it. This money is spent as follows: 1. Mill tax to the University of Michigan—$3,000,000. 2. Mill tax to the Michigan Agricultural College—$1,000,000. 3. Interest upon the war loan of 1917 and interest upon soldiers' bonus and bonds which were voted by the people of Michigan by a four to one vote in 1921—$3,346,172.52. The fourth item is $750,000 to pay the balance of the soldiers' bonus because the $30,000,000 was not money enough to pay all the soldiers. The fifth item is the expenses of the Supreme and Circuit Courts amounting to $442,625, and every dollar of the balance of this $16,000,- 000 is used for the support of the state institutions, educational, penal, insane, and charitable. It might be well in passing to note received of corporations and from all that our state institutions, that is contain DEMAND THE BEST There is a grreat difference in material and construction of automobile tires, yet scarcely one out of a hundred can detect the difference until after the tire has been run a few hundred miles.

Cordurov Cords Sidewall Vfottctton penal, charitable, and insane over 15,000 people. Now I would suggest that j o u ask soma ambitious candidate for Governor at the first opportunity how he will cut this tax levied upon real and personal property 50 per cent. Will he repudiate the interest upon the soldiers' bonus and war loan bonds? Will he close upon the courts or deny the University and Michigan Agricultural College their support, or will he close up some of our penal, insane, and charitable institutions? That is what he will have to do if he reduces this item, except through some small economy which he may inaugurate in the running of the various institutions. Referring to the second items of receipts, automobile taxes and other fees collected in this office are imposed and are collected upon the theory that good roads were to be built and maintained with the money, and every dollar of this money, with the exception of the amount necessary to pay for its collection in this office and the salaries of the employes of the Highway Department, is returned directly and indirectly to the various counties of the state for their roads. It cost this department approximately $350,000 last year to purchase the necessary plates and collect the money, and Mr. Rogers informs me that his office expense for maintaining that great department is $350,000 a year, and as I said before, the state returns all the balance of the monev to the various counties. The third and fourth sources of revenue, corporation tax and miscellaneous fees, are used to maintain the state departments and build the buildings necessary to expand and keep up our state institutions, and in this connection I call attention to the fact that not a single building has been built nor the salary of a single employe of the state departments paid from money levied upon taxable property of the state. Now again our professional tax reducer would have some trouble in lowering state taxes 50 per cent because if he did not build a single state building and discharged every state employe in the departments of the state government, the state tax levied upon the real and personal property of the state would still be $16,000,000. The next expenditure is the primary school money of which I spoke above. Under the Constitution this \ money is collected by the state and disbursed to the various school districts pro rata as to the number of children. The state of Michigan does the work of collecting this money and keeps not a dollar of the proceeds, but hands it in its entirety over to the school districts, so surely the state cannot be charged with any extravagance in this direction, and the school districts last year, as I said before, received approximately $11,- 800,000, which if the state would have been able to keep, would have made the state tax $4,200,000 instead of $16,000,000. The disbursements of the bond money, $10,000,000, as prescribed by the people and the Legislature, is and can be of course expended for only one purpose—that of building state roads, and is so spent. So here you have boiled down the receipts of the state and for what purpose expended, and when any man tells you that he will save 50 per cent of the tax money, ask him to explain this to you in detail, so before you vote for him you will know how he is going to do it. We all know that taxes are high and that they are a great burden upon all of us, and we would all have them lowered if we could, and the problem is not one of making wonderful promises, but of a sensible, sane and systematic reduction. The state tax under the administration of Governor Groesbeck has been reduced from $20,441,333.79 in 1921, to $16,000,000 in 1923, and I am willing to prophesy now that next year's state tax wall be reduced by at least a million dollars. I would suggest t h a t people give their local tax situation some study and try tt> do something towards decreasing local taxes, and, in this connection I call attention to the fact that in the tenyear period from 1913 to 1923 county road» taxes have increased 403 per cent, school taxes have increa5ed 329 per cent, city taxes have increased 287 per cent, village taxes 160 per cent, county taxes 180 per cent, and that the total increase in all taxes has been 236.23 per cent, and that during this same time the state tax has increased but 86.24 per cent. For further proof that state taxes are not the burden claimed to be, I have before me the taxes levied upon my home in Jackson for the year 1923. The state tax is $12.32, county • & i r ~% r 1 T i m ~* *"* '"l; **; * [ tax $48. Now if all the taxes i had to pay upon my home was the state tax, surelyl would not be burdened with high taxes. It is local and^school taxes that constitute the burden. I might go on indefinitely with examples, but space forbids. CHAS. J.

For the girls of forty-four years ago, with their long trains, full flounces, breath-forbidding bodices, etc., in the pioneer days of the telephone were equipped with a headset that was a veritable harness. It weighed some six pounds, the transmitter and rubber receiver being mounted on a leather and metal framework. No wonder, with such a strain, that a day's work taxed them to the utmost. But it's different now. The operator of today has a perfected type of headset, the total weight of which is only seventeen ounces. Demon Rays to Blot Out Earth Planned for War Washington.—While officials here dilly-dally and play pejty politics over even so small a step towards peace as entering the world court, the great powers are feverishly preparing death devices for use in the next war so unutterly terrifying that they seem more like a Jules Verne nightmare than scientific facts. Battle lines will be obliterated. In fact, there will be no battle lines. Civilian population—old men, women and babies—far in the interiors as well as the coasts and frontiers of countries, will be wiped out en masse, and if the present rate of progress is sustained the victor will merely be a question of which nation does it first. New Terror! Here are some of the things they are cooking up for you: Aeroplanes which, flying at 150 miles or more an hour, will let fall fogs of death—chemical clouds poisonous as cyanide or potassium, a touch of which on the tip of the tongue brings instant paralysis and death. "Demon rays," like radio, which, by the touch of a button, will hurl destruction from great distances—a machine for broadcasting death as you would broadcast the music of a jazz band—putting whole battle fleets out of commission at one sweep and bringing airships down in flames from any attainable height. A death-dealing rocket, or bomb, which can be fired across the Atlantic or Pacific—half way round the earth —and made to land in populous cities, munitions centers or at random among the civilian population anywhere, scattering panic to the point where the government would be forced to end the war. This bomb or rocket would carry either high explosives or poison gas. Super-aircraft Fuel A super-fuel for aircraft, so light and so condensed that a plane might carry sufficient to circle the globe, making it possible to deliver an air attack from any distance, the air-fleet being entirely controlled by wireless. Even bigger airplanes, capable of carrying large numbers of troop?, field guns, tons of explosives, gas agents or other man-killing devices. Dreadnaughts which can travel under water—stupendous submarines, carrying heavy armament, high-velocity, long-range guns of large caliber. "Mechanical soldiers" emitting death rays and gas—wireless controlled machines taking the place of infantry. Wipe Out Communities Huge tanks, land battleships, also operated entirely by wireless, etc. The imagination is being entirely outdone. Marshal Foch says of mass attacks from the air—bombing, gassing, poisoning, strangling virtually entire populations : "The potentialities are almost incalculable. Such an attack, owing to its crushing moral effect on a nation, may impress public opinion tr> the point of disarming the government and thus become decisive." o Man Has Right to Wear Hat, Ruling brought him and the hat before Lieut. Jesse Mead of Central station. "I have a severe cold," explained Currie. "I sat in the rear seat of the theater so I wouldn't bother other patrons.

She is now serving a term in the Detroit house of correction. No provisions were made by officials to care for the six children and this task fell upon the small shoulders of Anna. Attending the part time school rather than give up her schooling, she worked most of the day to earn a small sum in an effort to support the smaller members of the family. The girl was taken to court, but friends intervened and prevented the family from being sent to Coldwater. Arrangements have now been made by a local society to see that the children have sufficient food. Hidden Dangers Nature Gives Timely Warnings That No Citizen Can Afford to Ignore • DANGER SIGNAL NO. 1 comes from the kidney secretions. They will warn you when the kidneys are weak. Well kidneys excrete a clear, amber fluid. Weak kidneys send out a thin, pale and foamy, or a thick, red, illsmelling urine, full of sediment and irregular of passage. DANGER SIGNAL NO. 2 comes from the back. Back pains, dull and heavy, or sharp and acute, suggest wreak kidneys and warn you of the danger of dropsy, gravel and Bright's disease. In that case Doan's Pills have been endorsed by thousands. Here is a statement of a resident in this locality: Mrs. Arthur Rowe, Hart St., Hart, Mich., says: "Years ago I was suffering with kidney ailment. The worst symptom of the complaint was a constant ache in my back and at times it hurt badly. My kidneys were generally weak and caused annoyance. Doan's Pills proved to be a good remedy and soon corrected my kidneys and rid me of the other plaints entirely." Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Pills—the same that Mrs. Rowe had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs,, Buffalo, N. Y.

Somehow, the m a n h u n t e r had a deep desire to humiliate the man who had bested him in his suit for the hand of p r e t t y Rachel P e r k i n s . He realized t h a t buch thoughts were u n w o r t h y of him and the man felt half ashamed of entertaining' them as he gazed at the s h a t t e r e d r e m a i n s of the dead lying mute and powerless in his coffin. The m a r s h a l , not unmindful of his duties even now, searched the lumber camps, hoping to find others of the d r a f t - e v a d e r s who had been with Clang in his flight. He found none, however, and set out with the body of his late rival in the baggage car ahead. Rachel heard the news before the r e t u r n of M a r s h a l Tom and she wept in secret in the little room which wai now her only home. The people for whom she worked were kind to her and she would in no wise inflict her sorrows upon them. Thornton d e a d ! It did not seem r i g h t t h a t it should be so and she far a w a y at the time. He had not suffered, and he was now beyond the reach of m a l i g n a n t enemies. Although this was something, it did not alleviate the suffering in any m e a s u r e of the wretched wife of the notorious deserter of W i n g d a m . It oould not do that while the shadow of an awful crime rested a g a i n s t his n a m e . He was not a murd e r e r ; he had a s s u r e d her of his innocence and she believed him. She dreaded the coming of Woodrow, and listened for the sound of his step with a queer, s t r a n g l i n g catch in her t h r o a t . He came at length, g r a v e and calm, with the light of an a b u n d a n t and hones; s y m p a t h y in his d a r k eyes. "Car, I see h i m ? " asked she, calm as death itself.

T h e r e was something .-acred about the place t h a t app'-ahii to the s u f f e r i n g woman. It proved a most uneventful affair. The name of Clang was scarcely re sheeted a m o n g the s t u r d y yeomenry of the c o u n t r y -~:de, many of whose1 .-< n> had gone out tu fiLrht the c u m t.'y's battles. Sorm thing in those h<'h'st n a t u r e s revolted whenever the name (.if the conscript was mentioned, and s-(, the little school-house was ivn half-filled. The minister and a te-,» stanch friends were there. The occasion was one of quiet sadness. The dead man was laid beside his child in the c o u n t r y b u r y i n g ground, a f t e r which the little company went back to its daily round of duties, sympathetic yet u n f o r g i v i n g . When it was all over Rachel m o u r n - ed in h»-r own room, wishing for J a c k . The boy did not come, however. She had not asked him, knowing how bitter were his feelings t o w a r d T h o r n - ton. The days wore on. Rachel went about her work in absolute sflence. 11( r employers respected her feelings, m a k i n g no a t t e m p t to force conversation upon her. J a c k did not come even a f t e r the funeral.

He wasted fi w words over one so disgraced, simply a s s u r i n g his sister it was a thousand time* better so, since now shewould know where he was. She must .-oon forget one so ill-deserving and permit l e t t e r days to dawn for her, Rachel laid aside J a c k ' s letter with a sigh. The next daily paper made announcement of the d e p a r t u r e of the regiment from Great Rapids and Rachel realized t h a t the boy was on his way to the battle front. She wa< proud of Jack, as proud as any mother could have been of an only child. After all Jack had b w n good, although his w r i t t e n words per p e r - haps t r u e , it was yet quite too soon for the sore heart to accept them in good faith. Tom Woodrow was very busy a f t e r t h a t .

VAN WINKLE "J - - * ; • $ Crop Conditions Poorest in 12 Years The composite i-undit:^:! of all growing' crops on June 1 was lower than on any corresponding date in more than twelve year-, says the United States Department of Agriculture. With the exception of some fruits and vegetables, no crops, are up to the usual average for this time of year and the .season thus far has been unusually unfavorable for torn, spring wheat, oats, barley and cotton. Pastures have been slow in starting and hay is showing less growth than usual. The country east of the Rock Mountains has had the third coldest May in thirty years. Dry weather has prevailed on thi- Pacific coast and May was hotter than any previous May in t\vre:v-seven years. Crops in that part of the country are much poorer than u-uai, p a r ticularly in Washington, when- crops, including fruits, are expected f> produce only two-thirds as much per acre as usual with the result that the purchasing power of loral farmer- -eoir.s certain to be seriously reduced. Wheat growers in Kansas are al-o facing an unprofitable .-ea.-on, the department says.

It is Because it requires at least 10 i also rich in protein, however, continuyears' work under most favorable cir- i ed hot, dry weather unfortunately cumstances-to double the number of often limits pasture season to six or eight weeks during the summer. Sup plementary feeding, therefore, must be adopted if satisfactory results are to be obtained. The additional feed need not be provided in large amounts but some is necessary. Maintaining the daily milk flow during the summer is important, but keeping a cowin good condition is of even greater importance. If her condition is allowed to run down, her production will decrease sooner or later. It requires feed to restore the lost flesh and even then a dry period often must intervene before the former production is reached. Keeping the cowin good condition at, all times is always the cheapest in the end. The kind and amount of feed to provide while the herd is on pasture depends on the milk flow and the feeds available. Early pasture contains a much higher percentage of protein than when the grass is more mature. The grain ration fed early in the season need not contain a? much protein as later in the season. Feeding grain during the early part of the pasture season may not give immediate returns, but grain-fed animals will hold up in their milk flow hotter during the hot, dry- weather, and give a larger production during the winter months than animals receiving no grain. The Cornell Experiment Station found one lot oi cows receiving four pounds of conc. r.tra'.es daily, produced 28 per cent more milk tha* summer than cow? of similar productive capacity receiving pasture alone. The production was also greater the second summer. It has been estimated that a cow weighing 1.000 pounds and producing o0 pounds of milk daily requires 100 pounds of green grass da.lv. This would form a pile 5-5 inches long. Mo inches wide and IS inches high. A cow producing one pound ot butter fat daily should receive gram ever. when pastures are good. A mixture of two parts, by weight of ground rum to one of ground oats or hrar. makes a g.xxi mixture. When the production reaches one and one-hall pounds of butter fat or more daily. a protein-rich feed should, be added to the previous mixture. Early pasture exerts a laxative effect on "he cow's digestive system.

These hogs are enjoying a cool, cleansing bath in a modern hog wallow, which can be made by the farmer at a minimum price. good dairy cattle in a herd, and because the demand for dairy products is increasing ever more rapidly than the population, American farmers »eed not look with misgiving upon the expansion of the dairy industry. This Is the gist of a talk given by C. W. Larson, chief of the federal dairy division, at the animal convention of the Holstein-Friesian Association of America, Richmond, Virginia, recently. Mr. Larson presented some convincing figures and spoke with calm confidence, and without undue vainglory or "paper promises." Taking pre-war figures as a basis, he showed that while hay costs have advanced 14 per cent, oat costs about 5 per cent, and corn costs about 20 per cent, the average increase in the value sf butter in that period has been 80 per cent. He stated that it is more profitable now than it has been for some time to feed farm crops to dairy cows. The present slump is only temporary he felt, and should be disregarded for a more general and long-time view of the situation. The relative economic advantage of owning good producing cows is greater when dairy products sell for less than normal than when prices are unduly high. When coal prices fell off after the war many mines were abandoned because they paid only under the stimulus of high prices, being expensive to work. This holds true to some extent with dairycows, he said. The notion that, the pure-bred or bred-for-production cattle* game is overdone is simply absurd contended Mr. Larson. There .ire in this country 30,000.000 dairy cows and only 1,- 000,000 of them are pure-bred. Now is the time to buy pure-bred cattle when prices are reasonable, and forget the false ide-a that true pure-bred values have been overdone. The speaker said that the mistakes in the pure-bred game arc traceable to m.-n and not to cows. New figures were given showing the comparative production of milk per year by the average farm cows, grades and pure-breds, in national cow touting associations. Th^se wer>' not forced records, ho explained, bat averages take* from association? in ail states. Immature grade cows, under five years, averaged 0.7K7 pounds of milk, while immature pure-hreds of the same age averaged 8.183 pounds , t i m o s The mixture recommended is of milk.

Cow? producing less than the quantities indicated above concrete tank, filled with clean water, when the hogs will soon prove that they will choose this place to coo! their bodies rather than a mud hole that they have developed themselves A concrete hog wallow means a great deal to hog comfort in hot weather and anything that contributes to the comfort of stock usually means profit to the man who raises t h e m. Among other things, the hop wallow provides a dipping vat where ^the animals can keep themselves free from lice and other parasites. It is built so that the top of the side walls is about level with the surrounding ground. The excavation should be made the required depth and the soil where the floor or bottom of the wallow is to be laid should be thoroughly compacted. Reinforcement of the walls consists of one-quarter inch round rods spaced 6 inches apart center to center horizontally and every 2 feet vertically. These rods are tied together with light wire where they intersect after they have been set in the forms so that they will be held in correct posit. or, while the concrete is being placed. After the excavation has been made, the first thing to be provided for is an inlet pipe, w.iich by suitable the amount valve connection can aiso be made to wallow, serve as overflow when the required amount of water is in the tank. At one end of the wallow the floor -lopes upward to make it easy for animals to get in and out. This sloped the earth wall of the excavation, so that the space between forms and earth will correspond to the wall thickness of concrete. After the enclosure wall has hardened the forms may be removed and the Moor laid for the pool or wallow. An earth fill is placed to the required grade at the end where the Moor slopes upward for an exit. After the floor has been concreted and the concrete has hardened, the joint between floor and side walls should be sealed with hot tar. In order to provide for this a piece of beveled siding, with the thick edge upward, should be laid all around the side walls so tht its top will be level with the top of the finished floor. Wire ties should be fixed around these strips, so that they may be readily withdrawn when the concrete has hardened, thus providing the space to seal with tar and make the wallow water-tight. The hog wallow should be located where it will be convenient to pipe clean water into it and likewise easy to drain and clean when necessary. This suggests a slightly elevated spot as a desirable location. It is veryeasy to arrange an accessory compartment or pit in which a valve mechanism can be placed to control of water kept in the Various kinds or types of solution? are on the market which can be poured in the wallow and on floating on the water will make the applica- Destroy Common Barbery Bushes A warning that black stem rust is now abundant on common barberry bushes in the north central area and that the winds will shortly be carrying this rust to growing cereal crops was broadcast recently by the Conferer.ce for the Prevention of Grain Rust, an organization representing the agricultural interest* of thirteen Middle Western states. Immediate eradication of all common barberry bushels was urired as an effective means of reducing rust losses. After the spread of infection from the barberry to grain gets under way no human power can halt the progress of the rust, plant disease experts declare. The statement adds that black stem rust causes an average loss of approximately 50,000,000 bushels of grain per year in the North Central states and insists that this huge drain can be reduced to negligible proportions by destroying the common barberry, on which rust gets its start in the spring. 11*23, this would result in a corresponding decrease in production of nearly 1 "J,000,000 bushels. The wheat ucreage of the two provinces m 1023 was nearly 70 per cent of the total for all of Canada. Acrespring a g e in Alberta is reported to be about the same as last year. The seed bed was reported to be in good condition in all of the three prairie provinces. Spring seeding was delayed and germination slow in eastern Canada and Manitoba. In Saskatchewan practically all of the wheat was up on May 20. Crops in Alberta at the end of May were making good progress. Other crop conditions officially reported for all of Canada were: Oats and barley 94, rye 02, peas 0 0, mixed grains 01, hay and clover LMj, alfalfa 05, pastures 01. Sugar-beet acreage in Czechoslovak i a for 1924 is 733,000 acres com- 1 pared with 57 i,000 acres last year, | reports a cablegram from the Inter- [ national Institute of Agriculture at Rome. The potato acreage is given as 1,505,000 acres against 1,573,000 acres harvested last year. Drought was general in Italy during May, but beneficial rains fell in the northern and central portions toward the end of the month. Winter crops are maturing under normal conditions. Flax harvest is in progress in the south and average yields are expected. Weather conditions in England have been favorable for cereals, but sunshine is needed for all crops. Wheat harvesting is nearing completion in Egypt and condition on June 1 was reported as lJ7 per cent of the ten-year average. This is somewhat less favorable than previous reports because of dan.age from hot winds during grain formation. Yields are expected to be below average. The condition of barley is 104 per cent and normal yields are forecasted. OUR POU PART/WENT iin of medication or insecticides auseetion has small corrugations jr. the tomatic.

An old adage teaches us not to count our chickens b e f o r e they are hatched and practical exp e r i e n c e has taught us not to count them until they have gone entirely through the critical stages of t h e f i r s t f e w weeks. But having quite fully feathered out and having come into the period of fairly settled weather, it is reasonable to suppose that practically all the youngsters reaching this stage will reach productivity. But the problem from this point on is not as easy as it sometimes seems and it should not be left to itself for solution. The job is in nowise finished when the birds are brought to the place of most rapid development, although it is not at all unusual to see well informed breedeVs act as though they thought this was the case. The ultimate profit which a given bird will produce is determined quite largely by the way it is managed from the age of two months on. The question of feeding is as vitally important a t this time as it is earlier in the season, although disease and death may not be quite so likely to follow if a mistake is made. There are dozens of different combinations of feedstuffs which will give very satisfactory rebefore, but this does not mean that a chance should be taken on this score. Cleanliness and the liberal use of disinfectants should be the regular practice. It will pay to make a real study of the matter of taking care of the young flock after it has passed through the critical stage. Proper care and attention at this time will meet a liberal reward when the final check-up is made and when the history of the season's work is determined either as a profit or a loss. Remove the Rooaters The breeding season is over or very nearly so and there is no use whatever in keeping the male birds with the flock any longer. We long ago learned that an infertile egg is a far better keeper than a fertile one at any season of the year and during the hot weather the advantage of the infertile product is greatly increased. I he hens will lay just as well or perhaps better without the males in the flock and if a really high grade summer e ^ is to be produced the males must be removed. There is nothing theoretical about this. Several of the experiment stations, notably Kansas, have conducted thorough tests and out of these tests have grown the "Swat the Rooster" campaigns which have already done so much to improve the quality of summer produced eggs. On all too many farms the roosters a r e rllowed to run with the flock the year around and altogether too many fertile eggs are finding their way to the summer markets- We do not advocate killing off all the roosters. Some of them are suits and anyone can inform himself t a o Valuable as breeders for on exceptionally short notice just what a good ration within his own limitations should comprise.

All are important, and none should be overlooked. If possible the young birds should be allowed to run on as large a free range as possible. This not only insures better health but allows the chicks to pick up a great deal of the elements most needed. However a large range is not necessary but where the fowls are confined on comparatively small range they must be provided with the food elements they would naturally pick up on free range. Also they must be fed in such a way as to give them the exercise they The idea is, that at this time the chicks are developing body frames and feathers and food and living conditions must be provided with this in mind. Of course a satisfactory water supply must be always available. It would not do to convey the impression that after six weeks or so of age the young chicks are in any way immune from disease. There are many disorders that can atta«k them even at this time and constant vigilance must be maintained to ward off be takes with liianam a« tkay -». such drastic action. Nevertheless t h e greater number of breeding males to be used next spring will be cockerels and the quicker the old males not intended to be kept over are disposed of the better. Even where a male is kept over it is better to confine him and keep him away from the main flock. He will be a better spring breeder if so handled. The production of infertile eggs has a very important bearing on an economic phase of the poultry industry which merits consideration at this time. The poultry population is on a rapid increa.se and in spite of the rather poor hatch over much of the country this spring we are soon to see a surplus of poultry products, unless all signs faiL In order to dispose of this surplus we have got to teach the people of the country to consume greater quantities of poultry produce. And the first step in bringing about an increased consumption is the produciton of a higher quality product. To get a higher quality product on the market the poultry produce originates. Producing infertile eggs will do a*great deal toward increasing the attractiveness of the eggs which finally reach the consumers' table. By doing our p a r t we can help to encourage a greater demand for high quality eggs at profitable prices and disaster from this course.

C O M F O R T U S T I K O N S are shock absprber-a the same as rubber heels and equally as n*c essary. T h e y cushion the step and give the same effect as though every s u r t face over which you walk was c o v e r e d with rubber matting. T h a t is w h y they *re so generally used by clerks, dentists, nurses, postal clerks, school teachers, . t u d e n t s , etc., who are required to do considerable w a l k i n g , or to be on their feet most of the time. U S T I K O N S — u n l i k e other forms of rubber soles, retain the original leather -ole next to the fafot, w h e r e it absorbs all the moisture as t h o u g h U S T L K O N was not used. They do not "draw" the feet like rubber1 soles. U S T I K O N S are practically non-conductors of heat, thus keeping out the pene- 'rntinp cold of w i n t e r and the heat of s u m m e r — c o m f o r t the whole year around. S A F E T Y U o I T K O N S are "rson-skid". T h e y grip like a bare foot. T h e y repalce the* noise of leather and e l i m n a t e the constant tiresome effort you u n c o n s c i o u s l y — ijul c o n s t a n t l y — m a k e to avoid slipping on floors, stairs, icy sidewalks, etc., and in e v e r y d a y work. H E A L T H U S T I K O N S are water-proof. They keep the feet dry, m a k i n g the w e a r i n g of rubbers unnecessary e x c e p t in e x t r e m e cases. E C O N O M Y it cosjs only one-third tto one-half as much to e n j o y this extra c o m f o r t and • a f c t y , for U S T I K O N S cost only a small fraction of the a m o u n t charged for] Half-soling with leather. Bcinjj made of regular tire tread rubber, they usually give two to three times as] much services as leather. C E M E N T T H E M T O Y O U R P R E S E N T L E A T H E R S O L E S No tacks to mar floors, no threads to rip out. U S T I K O N S can be used profitably on all s h o e s — n e w or o l d — a s long as the uppers are serviceable. Application requires just a few minutes and results in a big saving of time and] m o n e y . After your first e x p e r i e n c e w e a r i n g them you will never be without them.

The United States Department of Agriculture points out that much-needed lime is supplied by milk, iron is found in egg-yolks, and both foods are good sources of vitamins. Custards may be served alone or as sauces for fruits, cakes or puddings. They may be thickened with eggs only, or part of the thickening may be supplied by bread crumbs, cake, rice, tapioca, sweet potato, pumpkin, flour, cornstarch or gelatin. Soft Custard Custards are classified on the basis of their consistency as soft and hard, or baked, custards. Soft custards are ^.frequently miscalled "boiled," for these custards should never be boiled. The consistency depends upon the proportion of egg to liquid and the method of cooking. To thicken the custkrd either the yolk, the white, or the whole egg may be used. The yolk on account of its composition; gives a smoother consistency and better flavor than the white alone; so it is more frequently .used for thickening, while the white is used in places where its capacity for holding in air is desirable. In a custard the thicke n i n g power of a yolk is about equal to that of a white, the increased percentage of protein in the yolk just about compensating for the difference in amounts of the yolk and the white. In a soft custard the proportion is from two-thirds to one cup of milk to each e g g yolk, and twice that amount if the whole e g g is used. In combining, the e g g is beaten j u s t enough to break it up. If beaten enough to incorporate air, it will float on t o p and not combine readily with she liquid present. If sugar is to be used, as it is in most •astards, it should be mixed with the egg, as it seems to help in a smooth combination of the e g g with the hot milk. The milk can boiler, since it will then require no watching. When it is hot, it should be poured over the egg mixture, which should be stirred until it is thoroughly mixed and then return to the double boiler and cooked until it thickens. Careful stirring is necessary or the custard will thicken unevenly. The custard has cooked sufficiently when a spoon dipped into, it comes out coated. When done, the custard should be removed immediately from the hot water. Even in a case of uncertainty it should be removed temporarily until one is sure it has been cooked sufficiently. If allowed to remain in the hot water too long, the mixture will become overcooked, or "curdle.*' This curdling is caused by the precipitation of the overcooked protein from the solution. The only remedy in such a case is to beat with a Dover e g g beater so as to break up the curd. If it is divided sufficiently fine it will remain in suspension and will not separate in curdled masses. The curd remains under these conditions overcoagulated; so that the best rule is not to overcook it in the first place. The custard made with two-thirds of a cup of milk to each egg yolk is thick and of a suitable consistency to serve alone or with sliced fruit. The thinner custard ig used with cake, and as a basis for eggnoggs, frozen custards, etc. "I must hear what David Cory 1.-5 s a y i n g about me," cried Little J a c k Rabbit one evening, as, the 1 winkle S t a r shone down on Sunny Meadow.

A Powder Rub Will Make the Baby Sleepy Custard Dessert* "Floating Island" is a custard dessert with the stiffly sweetened whites served on top of the custard, after having been cooked a moment in the hot nrrilk before the yolks and sugar were added. An English dessert called "trifle" consists of pieces o.f almond-studded sponge cake, soaked in flavored cooked soft custard, and topped off with bits of tart jelly and spoonfuls of whipped cream. For cornstarch blancmange, Tanilla or choeolate gelatines, fruit gelatines, souffles and steamed puddings, custard sauce will he acceptable if cream be mast easily heatsd up ia a double I cms n o t be spared. • and fold. He will like it very much nine cases out of t e n , a n d reward both you and himself by taking a long, healthful nap after the powdering and dressing is finished. Thi? powder rub is fine at bed time, too, if the room is warm enough, take off all the baby's things and see how he moves his little legs and arms. He is glad of the freedom. It gives him a chance to exercise a little. Then massage him with a little powder. It soothes his nerves, makes him sweet and cool and makes his clothes feel more comfortable to his tender skin. o_ E f f Economy If egg* are scarce and you want than one egg, add the butter last and to make a cake that calls for more have it melted when added. E g g s may be made to do double duty by beating up with a tablespoon of water to an egg. If more than three e g g s are called for, amit one and add a spoonful of cornstarch. Beat it ia with the e g g s o'r the miactsaj will fall. So much of the baby's happiness depends on his bath. The room must be just warm enough, 75 degrees for a young baby is enough. No drafts must strike him and the water must be the temperature of the body, about 98 degrees to 100 degrees. If mother does not have a bath thermometer, she can test the water with her elbow. If it is too hot or too cold for her elbow, it is too hot or too cold for the baby, too. This testing of the water should not be done till His Majesty the Baby is all undressed. Neither must hot water ever be added after His Majesty has been put in the bathtub. If you bathe him in the tub, be sure to keep your hand under his head and back as this supports his back and reassures him, too. Use little soap and work quickly. Go in between his toe?) financial loss by fire, and his fingers and be sure to wash 1 Fire often d e s t r o y s behind his ears.

T h » W » t e r That G o e t l a t o Milk A certain milkman adverti.-ied that his milk was purer than any of his competitors. When pressed for proof his only argument was that he had a filter on his pump. It's a stale joke but it leads me to this: There is a way in which a dairyman is justified in; putting water into his milk that is through the cow. A heavy producing cow will consume 70 to 150 pounds of water per day. Since milk is eighty-seven per cent water, it is easy to understand how the amount of water a cow received might be the limiting factor in the amount of milk produced. In terms of milk yield, it is estimated a cow should have access to a?t least three pounds of water for each pound of milk produced, The condition in which water is presented has much to do with the amount an animal will consume no matter what the season of the year. Possibly no part of modern barn equipment yields largvr returns on the investment than indoor, individual, drinking cups. Where water is available at all times so that it can be taken in small quantities at will, a much largrr total amount will be. consumed than where the cows have access to it only once or twice per day. Some time ago The Diary Farn?er investigated the use of indoor watering1 systems among nearly a hundred dairymen who had made use of those systems for at least a year. They were therefore competent to pass judgment on the value of indoor watering from their own experience in the use of both methods. Out of the total number questioned all but one stated" positively that the continual presence of abundant water in the barn did increase milk flow. The system likewise saved time ranging from a few minutes to two or three hours per day. Water is cheap it is the cheapest food that can be given to our cows. Lack of water is costly; it is the most costly error that can be made in feeding". To make maximum yields of milk, cows must have all the water they want, when they want it, day or night. s t o r a g e on t h e a v e r a g e f a r m , E a c h s u c c e e d i n g s e p a r a t i o n of c r e a m will be a d d e d to t h e c a n as it c o m e s f r o m t h e " * s ^ p a r a t o r .

Cream which freezas and later is thawed for buter making results in a lower quality of butter. It is also difficult to get tki accurate sample for t««ting. In the experiments cream will be obtained twice daily by centrifugal reparation from morning and evening milk. The cream will be divided in three pacta; each portion will be cased f a r by a different method, as follows: Method A—The cream as it comes from the aeparator will be run intb a U n - g a l l o i milk can which, win be •lored in a room, at atmospheric temptrafcrre eorreapondiRff to similar I — / M o s t b a c t e r i a a r e e a s i l y k i l l e d w i t h ' b o i l i n g v . a i e r . t h e r e f o r e a s e p a r a t o r j b o w l or u t e n s i l w h i c h h a s b e e n p r o p - e r l y w a s h e d a n d t h e n s c a l d e d will b e p r a c t i c a l l y s t e r i l e or f r e e f r o m g e r m life. 0 C u t w o r m B a i t Cutworms in the garden or field may be destroyed by a poison bait.

Grass and.tree roots should be dug out ar.d the soil firmly compaacted by using a tamper like that suggested among the list of tools. It is always well when possible to have the area where the walk is to he laid graded up slightly from the surroundings if the natural soil is one which does not drain freehand readily. This will prevent water from being retained beneath the walk and causing the heaving and consequent uneven settling which results from freezing and thawing of soil in winter. In very rare cases it may be well to lay a special sub-base of clean cut out on its lower face so that the center of the work is between h4 to 'v. inch higher than the sides. Cross forms to divide the walk into slabs may also be 2 by .4Ts staked in position so that alternate squares can be concreted first, then the crosspiece- removed and intervening -paces filled with concrete. As soon as the concrete has commenced to harden so that slight pressure does not mar the suYface, a dirt covering 2 inches thick should be thrown on it to keep it from drying out for a week. Occasional sprinkling of this covering will help and i-. desirable. OUR POU PARTMENT A lot depends upon whether the apple orchard is kept in sod or is cultivated as to what the most profitable fertilizer practice will be. While definite indications of direct beneficial results from fertilizers in cultivated orchards are lacking, there seems to be no question that, excepts ing possibly on the very richest soils, high ammonia fertilizers are essential to success in sod orchards. Recommendations vary somewhat, but the following, from the Cornell. (N. T.) Experiment Station will serve as a reliable guide. During the first two or three years, a half pound of nitrate of soda or sulphate of ammonia may be scattered about each tree. The quantity may gradually be increased to three or four pounds wken the trees are ten or twelve rears old, and to five or six pounds when iftecn to twenty years old. When the trees are younjj the fertilizer should be spread u n d e r the drip of tke branches, but whm older, it may best be applied* broadcast between the rows. F e r t U i z e r s H e l p P e a c h e s The application of fertilizers high in ammonia, (nitrogen) to peaches ' ha? proven so profitable in Missouri, that the practice has become quite ! general in that state. Winter in- Ijury is one of the serious detriments to peach growing,-and fertilizers have shown a distinct tendency to increase the hardiness of the trees. The importance of this may be gathered from the fact that in some parts of the state winter injury is so severe tf.at a crop ia not looked for more than once in three or four years. 0 Caller—And this ia the new baby?

E g g G r a d e s f o r C o u n t r y B u y e r s Buyers' e^g grades have been prepared' by the United States Department of Agriculture in an effort to simplify egg standards and to facilitate trading on a uniform basis between producers and country buyers. Only two grades, No. 1 and No. 2, are provided for sound shell egg?. Grade No. 1 consists of eggs of an average weight of 24 ounce? net per dozen with a minimum weight at the rate of 22 ounces per dozen for individual eggs. The shell shall be practically clean a n d sound; the air cell shall be of a depth of 8-8 inch or less, localized, and may be slightly tremulous; the yolk may be visible and mobile; the white reasonably firm, and the development of the germ may be slightly \dsible. Grade No. 2 consists of eggs of an average weight of 22 ounces net per dozen with a minimum weight at the rate of 18 ounces per dozen for individual egg-s; the shell clean or dirty but sound; the air cell having a depth of over 3-8 inch, and bubbly or freely mobile; the yolk plainly visible and freely mobile; the white weak and watery, and the germ development clearly visible but with no blood showing. Despite heavy prospective production of eggs this year, the supply of eggs of high quality will not be excessive and will bring much better prices proportionately than ordinary eggs, the department points out in urging farmers to produce high quality e^s;.' and to market them through agencies or to buyers who appreciate quality and will pay for it. Under the present system of paying a flat price for eggs the producers of good quality eggs is penalized by receiving a lower price than his e^^? are worth, whereas the careless producer whose eggs are poor or bad receives more than he is justly entitled to receive, the department says. Use of the buyers' e^ grades just promulgated is expected to correct this situation. The service? of county agents and extension agencies generally over the country are being enlisted in the campaign to bring about the marketing of eg?rs according to quality. It is felt that the grades for eggs used by the wholesale trade in terminal markets are too complicated for use at country points, hence the set of simple buying grades proposed by t i e department. When buyers pay prices for ejfjfs based on quality, an incentive is immediately offered producers to produce and market eggs of the higher qualities, the department says. Use of the new jrrades requires the candlingf of ezift by buyers. Information regarding candling methods may be obtained from tht local count y ajrent er by writing the Uriitel i States Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C. Poultry farming is a favorite occupation for disabled soldiers. Scatt e r e d throughout the foot hills of the Ozarks, and in many other sections, chicken farm- are being established by them. Poultry raising, which provides quick returns and comparatively light labor, seems to appeal strongly to the ex-service men whose disabilities are such a,-> to prevent them from resuming their old occupations, S i m p l e D i a r r h e a A poultry authority who is entitled to every confidence advocates boiled rice for young chicks which show a slight tendency to diarrhea. The rice is boiled until it i, thoroughly cooked and is kept a.- dry as paesible. It is mixed with bran middlings or fine bran to take up the excess moisture, and worked up into a fine crumbly mass. When added to the ration once or twice a day for a few days it will correct any mild case of simple diarrhea. Breaking Hens of Egg-Eating Habit The egg-eating habit is one easily acquired, but very difficult to break once- it becomes firmly established— often the hatchet is the best remedy. However, if one takes certain measures, it may often be stopped without resorting to the extreme penalty. One should arrange all nests so that they will be quite dark, by placing under dropping-boards or by having entrance from back of nest. Catch birds that show egg stains about head and file or clip front of bill till quite blunt. Feed birds plenty of oyster shell or lime, and include some animal feed, like milk, meat scrap or tankage, ia the ration. A craving for substance in meat often leads to the habit. The hens should be kept busy and interested by providing deep litter to scratch in. Let birds run out-of-doors whenever weather conditions permit. 0 G e r m a n y B u y i n g A m e r i c a n M u i e s A shipment of 64 Missouri mules destined to Hamburg, Germany, arrived at Brighton Stockyards May 6. This was the second shipment of this kind this year, the former leaving the country via Portland, Maine. The mules ranged from 5 to 6 years old and were of good conformation. It i« understood t h a t they were shipped o« contract and will be used in Germany for agricultural purposes to replace oxen. —o- C u c u m b e r I n c r e a s e North Carolina has about 3,5000 acres of cucumbers, or 25 per cent increase over last year.

When, however, the dark and hopelessly shadowed face of her husband came to her vision, she became less depressed.

She knew him by reputation rather than by personal contact. He had in a measue been her husband's evil genius, stiffening him in his resistance to the order of things, praising his stand in defiance of the National Government.

This oppressive silence must soon break. This came with a startling distinctness at last—rattle of wheels and champ of horses! Rachel took instant fright. She sped to the front of the house even as a step sounded outside. Before she could slip the bolt the door swung open revealing the dark, sympathetic features of Marshal Tom Woodrow. He came in without apol- °§ry> grasping both her hands in a firm, friendly clasp. "My dear girl!" exclaimed he in the heat of sudden emotion, "I am so sorry.

"Don't stop here a single minute; I do not want you; you must not stay. Oh, sir, if you are a friend of mine you will leave me alone now!" j Her look, her tone puzzled and j alarmed him.

When she proffered her services to dress his wounds he merely smiled, assuring her that he was not permitting himself to be babied. Being of strenuous make the marshal despised effeminate men. His calling demanded nerve and endurance which he prided himself upon possessing in a remarkable degree. Many an incautious criminal had felt to his sorrow the good right arm of Marshal Woodrow, and had the conscript not taken him wholly unawares there would have been a different termination to the late struggle. "If I can be of any service, Rachel," said Woodrow a moment later, "command me." "I don't know, hesitatingly, her brain confused with passing events. "Jack is about somewhere; you might find and consult with him if you will." The marshal signified his willingness to do so, after which he retired. than sacrilege. j the boys wrist as he was ready for Jack maintained silence where the a second stroke. fugitive w'as concerned. She was glad for this. The boy's embittered words in the past still lingered and she knew how much of self repression it cost him to stay his speech. The days wore on. Jack remained with/ his sister, doing the necessary chores about the house, going- to Logtown each day to note how matters were working fthere. This sort of existence could not last, however. No one knew this better than Rachel. She saw the restlessness of the boy and felt that it was up to her to suggest a remedy. One afternoon Jack returned from town, driving a span of ponies attached to a runabout. "The Seventh move* out tomorrow," cried the boy, "and you are going over to Wingdam with me to see the parade as tne boys go to the depot." "But, Jack—" "Not a word, sister mine," protested the boy. "You'll eat your heart out here all alone. No use talking, you've got to get out And Mrs. Meadows slept through it! amongst folks. I fetched the ponies all.

Jack glanced backward to see the old man gathering himself, trying strenuously to regain his feet. "Let' the blamed scamp go,' sapped Jack, whose face was flushed with angry annoyance. Several persons now rushed to the assistance of the fallen man. The boy was roiled, yet he knew his duty, and halted the ponies. "Hold the reins a moment, Sis." Jack leaped out and ran back. He found Adams somewhat dazed by his fall, yet not seriously injured. The old fellow was wrathful, however, and poured out his anger in a volume of anathemas against the author of his downfall. "He's jes' like all tv e nigger-stealers; they have no consideration for gray hairs, no respect for age. They've robbed every home in ther nation to make targets fur Southern rifles. I hope to land there'll never be a d—n one of 'em come back; let 'em rot in Southern ground, it's what they deserve!"

His bony knuckleB cut the flesh of the intruder with the weight and keenness of forged steel. Woodrow, thus unexpectedly astauHed, went down and out. It was all over in a minute and Rachel stood wringing her hands in an agony of horror over the bleeding form of Marshal Tom. The officer was not seriously injured. He quickly regained his feet | h e ) . d e a d , h o l d i n g s a d good season. You won't say no, Ra- : dangerously injured, therefore he chie, will you?"

The smile that Rachel finding only a weak woman to con front. His assailant had dashed away, taking refuge once more in the tangled thickets of the dark woods. Woodrow wiped the blood from his face with his handkerchief, at the same time regarding Mrs. Clang with anything but friendly eyes. Something hard and sirfister glittered in his black orbs as he said sternly: "So he has been with you, Rachel Clang!" The words conveyed all the vengef «l feeling of the speaker. There was also a rebuke that told his listener that he regarded her as very much a fraud. She shrank from " R a c h e l l o o k i n g d o w n i n t o the tittle b e d w h e r e l a y h e r d e a d s o n , T h o r n t o n , J r . " communion with her burdened thoughts. The neighbors came at daydawn, also Jack, calm as a summer morning. He made no mention of Clang, never hinting that he knew of his return. He knew it of course, since Woodrow made no attempt to keep it secret, and Rachel wondered at this silence on the part of her brother. The funeral was held at the cottage. Such rites were usually held in the little school house on the hill overlooking Hemlock Run, but Rachel would not expose her biting sorrow to the curious. A few friends came; the minister spoke feelingly from an appropriate text.

How good he was to her; and she had been to him a dreadful trial. There was not another in all Christendom she believed, like unto him. Her work seemed lighter after that. However much she mourned her dead, there was this much to cheer her, Thornton, her husband, was not a murderer. Whatever the out-come she knew she should never again lose faith in him. She had been a wicked wife to have ever distrusted him. The morning of the next day dawned crisp and bright, an ideal October morning, just cool enough to give the air a refreshing, healthful tang. Rachel stood longer before her mirror on this morning. Not that she cared for frivolous things, but there were nicities of the toilet that she never despised or neglected. Moreover, she wished to do credit to Jack, who had ever been proud of his sister's beauty. She would not make him ashamed even though her sorrows pressed never so , heavily. The ride to town was a very pleasant one. Nature herself seemed garbed in purple and fine linen as though to do honor to the nation's heroes who were so soon to face the foe on the field of battle. Rachel was wonderfully cheerful considering the circumstances. Jack had a smile and word for everybody and seemed to be in his gayest mood. Part of this was assumed in order to brigihten the spirits of his gloomy companion. As they1 neared Logtown people were seen moving rapidly on foot, on horseback, and in wagons. A sprinkle from the clouds the previous night had laid the dust, making the roads unusually fine. Everybody, their aunts, uncles and eousipa seemed bent on getting to Wringdam in the shortest possible time. To these the day was a gala affair never to be forgotten. Many glances were cast at Jack and his companion, curious, compassionate glances, since few there were who had not heard of Rachel | Clang, the conscript's forsaken wife. A dead calm rested on the face of Rachel. The sound of a distant drum-beat failed to arouse her to a nense of her surroundings. "Hi, there, Jack! So you're off to sw the eshow with all the rest!" called a voice as an old man swung into the road before a big house at the end of the bridge, tt was old Bill Adams, trie Logtown Copperhead. Jack wished to avoid an argument since he had no liking for the old man who had encouraged hid brother-in-law to become a draftevader. "Nowj don't look 'tother way an' purttnd not to see," chuck- Hnffly continued the old man. "Goln' gave something Tom was saying assured Jack that the meeting was not distasteful to her.

Mrs. Rose Garvey, mother of the family, recently celebrated her 112th birthday. Her children live with her. Anthony, the boy, is only 68. Michael is 72 and Patrick, 80. "We're just kids," said Anthony. "All of us are bachelors, and we're boing to stay with mother." There is another child, Mrs. Garvey confided, who wandered from the homefold and got married John, 76, lives three miles from the farm and is considered a stranger in a foreign land. Since 1882 when the Garvey's took up their homestead near here, little y little additional acres of land have een added. To them it is still the "little farm.' In the county register of deeds office, however, are recorded hundreds of acres under the names of the Garvey family. A scrubby rose bush lies dormant ut one corner of the porch. "Soon be time to get my rose bush ready for summer," Mrs. Garvey commented. It's been there as long as we have lived here." Despite her years, Mrs. Garvey gives the rose bush personal attention. Thought He Was Squirrel At St. Paul a gentleman, hotly pursued climbed a tall tree to its topmost branches and when his pursuers climbed up after him backed out on a slender limb 100 feet from the pavement. Then the hook and ladder company was called. They spread a net below the human squirrel, while other firemen, mounting ladders, poked him off with a pole, the net catching him. safely as he fell. It appears the gentleman was a patient at a sanitarium and labored under the impression he really was a squirrel. At the sanitarium they compelled him to walk and act like a man, which is a hard' thing for a squirrel to do. consequently when no one was looking he ran away and scotted up the first tree. ^eauiric \ You Can't Sell R a t s - w h y Fatten Them?

W. No. 633— 6- 9-1924 Motherhood and Child's IVelfare {.ONDIC'IKI) BY U. S. Children's Bureau Washington, I). C. The Children's Bureau U glad to answer request* for information on welfare of children. A list of the bureau's publications on this subject will be sent to any reader addressing the Chief of Children's Bureau, U S. Department of Labor, Washington, D. C. How a National Child-Labor Law Worked The Children's Bureau would like to tell you something about Uncle Sam's experiences in administering a child-labor law. In 1916 Cengresa decided that because the State laws on the subject of child labor were so very diverse it would be well to fix a National minimum standard. So a law was passed which borbade any mill or cannery or workshop or factory to ship its products outside the State where they were made if it employed children under 14 years of age, or if it employed children under 16 at night or more than 8 hours a day or 6 days a week. And the lowest age for work in mines was made 16. The Supreme Court finally held this law unconstitutional, but for nine months it had been administered by the Children's Bureau, and some things were learned from the experience t h a t a r e still worth telling. It was decided in the first place t h a t as much responsibility as possible should be left to the State officials. Public hearings were held at Washington and standards of administration were agreed upon. In States which measured up to Federal Standards, the State certificates of age for working children were acepted by Federal officers and State officials charged with the enforcement of State Child Labor Laws were given official recognition in the enforcement of the Federal Act. But in a few States the Federal authorities found it necessary to carry on the entire administration, from the issuance of age certificates to inspection of the mills and mines and factories. When the Children's Bureau agents came, at the request of employers, to pass on the evidence of age submitted for children who desired to work, they had varied experiences. Birth registration is still inadequate in many parts of the country, and so in these sections children can not produce birth certificates. The commonest evidence they presented was the record in the family Bible. Sometimes it was evident that the record had been changed to make the child's age greater than it really was. One child brought a Bible with a p a r t of the page cut out, and a birth date written in below the names of her younger brothers and sisters, indicating that she was 14 years old. The ink was hardly dry. Sometimes it was still possible to see the original record after an attempt had been made to erase it. But there were others where it was very hard to tell whether the record wras genuine or not. Some Bibles had no date of publication. There were entries in lead pencil; entries so badly written as to be illegible; entries made in many kinds of writing, by any neighbor who could write. Another kind of evidence which was offered, but which was found to be unreliable, was the age given on insurance policies. Sometimes the age was different on each of two or three different policies^ for the same child. One mother offered a policy which showed her child to be under 14. When her attention was called to this fact she said, "Think of that, lady; I give you the wrong one!" and presented another policy which showed him to be of legal working age. Again and again when permits were refused because the policies showed the children not to be 14, the parents later brought w h a t they described as "corrected" policies on which they had had the companies change the age. Frequently a mother excused error on a policy by saying t h a t her husband had taken it out for the child, and "of course he could only guess at the age." State and Federal experience in the issuance of work permits h a s demonsrated t h a t it is not safe to rely on the affidavits of the parents as proof of age. They do not always realize the importance of having their children stay in school instead of going to work, and t h e law should protect the interests of the child. In addition to fulfilling an age requirement a child should a t least have completed the elementary grades at school, and a doctor should examine him to see t h a t he is well enough physically to permit his entering employment without physical h a r m . Even in some States having good laws the Children's Bureau found t h a t the State law yas not enforced or was variously interpreted in different p a r t s of the State. The forms used as work permits in the towns of a single State were of every size from legal cap to small scraps of paper. The school superintendents were supposed t o issue them, but many children were a t work with " p a p e r s " they had secured from other persons. 1 For example in one city the mayor i had written a note which read, "This , is to certify t h a t (Mary Jones) says she is 16 years old * * *My consent iis hereby given (her) to work." I The study of child labor condi- : tions in this State was made by the I Children's Bureau just after the first ' Federal child-labor law was held unconstitutional. The bureau made a 'number of studies a t this time, not of [course under the power t h a t the special law had given it, which was then removed, but under its permanent aut h o r i t y to investigate and report on the welfare of the Nation's children. I In the eourse of these investigations, the agents of the Children's Bureau found that almost half the eleven i hundred establishments they visited, (in 21 States, were violating stand a r d s of their own State laws. It I was clearly shown that thousands of 'children had been dependent upon (Federal regulation for their only safeguard against premature employment and long hours. I A striking example of the need for a country-wide standard was found ' on the border of a State whose requirements were very high. In a State adjoining children were allow- I ed to work for longer hours and at an earlier age, so t h a t many children from the State which sought to pro- Itect its children, who were not allowed to work at home, crossed the river ion the ferry and secured employment in the other. Manufacturers in the .State with higher standards bitterly complained of this, and citizens who I wished to see the children of their I State protected had no way to overc o m e the evil. Many similar examples could be given, especially in connection with the seasonal industries (for which whole families migrate from one State to another. j In 1918 Congress passed another law which placed a tax on the profits !of establishments employing child labor, which had the effect of lessening the employment of children. j While it was in operation the United States Census of 1920 was taken and showed a decrease in the number of : working children since 1910. But last year the Supreme Court upheld this tax law unconstitutional and so all [Federal restriction has ben taken away. Only 18 States have as high requirements with regard to work in [factories, mills, canneries, and workshops as the two Federal laws. Some .States fall below nearly all the European countries in the protection which they give to working children. Thus our standing as a Nation is lowered. The decisions of the Supreme Court have made it clear that the | Federal Government can not deal with child labor under the Constitution as it now reads; so a number of j amendments to the Constitution have been introduced in Congress. Hearj ings on this subject have been held .before a Senate sub-committee. I From the results of the first two [National child-labor laws this fact i seems to stand out: The advantages [of our Federal form of government | can be preserved, and at the same [time the interests of the children can ibe safeguarded, if a National minijmum is fixed by Congress, and if the ; States also have the right to protect their children. ! The Children's Bureau has prepared a pamphlet in response to many calls for information, answering questions on the present status of child labor. It is illustrated with a number of maps and charts, showing how far each State measures up to the best modern standards. I t is called "Ten Questions Answered." It will be sent free of charge to anyone 1 addressing the Children's Bureau, U. S. Department of Labor, Washington, D. C. o Child Should Be Made to Drink Enough Milk Milk is not a food to be taken or left alone at t h e whim of the child, for without it proper nutrition is impossible and the health and even the life of the individual may be endangered, according to extension workers at Iowa state college. In tests recently conducted at the college, it was shown definitely t h a t milk makes a difference in the health and growth of rats and other small animals. Those which received milk grew and were healthy. Those denied milk were stunted and Rickly. What is true in the case of rats is said to be equally true in the case of small children. The college specialists urge parents to see t h a t their children are supplied with plenty of wholesome milk. | New Embroideries Offered | 1 in the Art Shops fi By Ethel Dean Hayden BHiiHEHEBiiHEfiii]^^ Of live, 1 am tht ThU S one by bv done in the 11 who whom work can beat right way."

Oakley, Michigan Dear Uncle Ernest—I am sending in a poem, t h a t I made up and the name of it is: A GOOD BOY I woke before the morning, I was happy all the day, I never said an ugly word, But smiled and kept at play And at last the sun is going Down behind the woods. And I am very happy, For I know I have been good. My bed is waiting cool and fresh, With linen smooth and fair, And I must off to slumber land And not forget my prayers. Then sleep will hold me tightly 'Till I waken at the dawn. And here t h a t robins singing, In the lilacs 'round the lawn. Your friend, Anna Sevceck. Lake Odessa Michigan. Dear Uncle Ernest—I was reading, and enjoying your boys and girls column and have been wanting to write, so here I am with two riddles and one poem: Out in a field there stands an old red bull, it cats a^id ii eats but never gets full. Answer—Threshing machine. What is it t h a t has one wheel, two legs and two arms? Answer—Wheelbarrow. WORK Let me but do my work from day to day. In field or forest, at the desk or loom, Let me but find it in my heart to say. When vagrant wishes beckon me astray, "This is my work, my blessing, not my doom, When you build a home you want it to be beautiful, comfortable and permanent. Beauty and comfort can be obtained temporarily with many materials but permanence is not so easily secured. This pleasing variation of the Dutch Colonial type of home—the Hazelhurst—has been designed in concrete block and Portland cement stucco with fire resisting shingles in order to obtain the maximum permanence and minimum maintenance while not sacrificing beauty and comfort that are so much desired. To the family desiring a few large rooms rather than many small rooms this home will particularly appeal. The lower floor has but three rooms and a hallway extending from front entrance to rear entrance. The stairway to the upper floor is located in this hallway. To the left from the front entrance is the extra large living room, 12 by 21 feet. This room extends from the front of the home to the rear porch where a double door is provided. There is one window on the front and two on the side. A fireplace adds much to the beauty of the interior and on cool evenings is just the thing to remove t h » chill from the atmosriBsr n o w ^inn phere. Logs may be burned or a gas arrangement Installed. To the right from the front entrance is the dining room which h a s two large windows, one on t h e front and one on the side. A door leads to the kitchen which also has two windows. A closet located in the hallway completes the first floor a r r a n g e - ment. The second floor has two large bedrooms, bathroom, and three closets, all of extra size. One bedroom has two windows and the other h a s four, all of which insure proper ventilation while in use. MCONO TLOOB K M The trelliaed front porch gives smiling welcome and the conasete steps and floor will nerter cause p a r t i n g guest to stumble. Tba mum of convenience has betjsV at. The well-planned cellar a well equipped laundry with modern electric appliances for washing and drying clothes. The kitchen contains an efetrically operated refrigerator, so t h a t daily visits of the iceman wills his muddy foot-marks are no loiijrtr needed and the electric dUhvmsJsjr reduces the kitcHerr^rork t o t tttarimum. .•**mt**»^-4**'*fr V>^ JMr PiNOCMEY DISPATCH fe v> •1 {•• Farm and Garden HATS 10c—25c For Men, Boys, Women, Children C.S.UNE The Big Bazaar Howell O p p o s i t e C o u r t h o u s e 1 Hor»^ Shoeing, General Repairing also Ford Repairing F.

VAN WINKLE 1¾ i M A a a t ^ M & (r- \ ": Years Will Bring Renewed Demand for Land and Farm Products ^ Concrete Block Garages Convenient, Economical, Fire«afe ri1 One cause of the slump in farm commodity prices which occurred in the nineties was the fact that the land area under cultivation io the United States had then recently undergone a tremendous expansion, due to the settlement of the Middle Wijst and Western States. No increase in the per capita area of land UJrtier cultivation can be cited in p*rt explanation of the present slump in farm product prices, say economists in the United States Department of Agriculture. On the contrary', they point out, the last twenty years have seen a shorp decline in the per capita area of tilled land. Good land available for farming has been getting relatively scarcer in the United States for several decades. Though the census of 1920' showed nearly a three fold absolute gain since 1850 in the area of land in farms, the per capita acreage in farms had decreased. From 1880 to 1900 the per capita area in fourteen principal crops increased slightly, but it was less in each succeeding decade. The combined production per capita of nine principal crops was less in 1920 than in 1900. The per capita acreage of improved land in farms, which was at its maximum in the decade 1880 to 1890, has since declined. Conditions outside the United States have contributed to the present agricultural depression. Diminished buying power in continental Europe has temporarily hidden the fact that the trend in this country is toward an increased pressure of population on land resources. But the trend is there just the same, and it is expected to become apparent again within a very few years. With many important farm products still a drug on the market, it seems absurd to talk of an increasing scarcity of land. Yet there is no denying the fact, say economists in the Department of Agriculture, that we shall soon need to reckon with the problems which grow out of the in - crvaaing scarcity of available land in relation to population. This does not mean that we have not sufficient land resources to maintain a much larger population, but rather, that as population increases there will be a steadily increasing pressure on land resource^ compelling important readjustments in foreign trade, in standards ui consumption, and in methods oi production of farm and forest products. Although the present area, in farms is only about one half the total land area, of the country, nearly all the land suitable for agricultural purposes is now in use either for crops or pasture or is forest and cut-over land. Besides the reduced ability of Europe to buy our farm products, there are some other causes of the apparent interruption in the trend toward an increased pressure of population on land resources. Among these is the fact that in recent years there has been a gradual reduction in the per capita acreage of crop land employed in livestock raising, and an overexpansion in the per capita acreage of wheat and rye at the expense of other crops. As these branches of American agriculture resume their norma! proportions, the real scarcity of land will be thrown into prominence again. One of the most important conditions which tends to obscure the increasing scarcity of our natural resources is the continued cutting of forest products from the stored up supply of past years, temporarily throwing land out of use which ought to be now growing timber to provide against the great scarcity of timber that will be manifest a generation from the present. These considerations are not cited fLOQR, PLAN invested in automobile The amount of money even the lowest priced justifies a substantial garage that will give the required protection against weather, theft and fire.

With production is just around the corner. It is recognized that the foreign outlook may mean that some years will be required to restore the normal balance between acreage under cultivation and the demand, both foreign and domestic, for our farm products. Yet is is noted that the bearish outlook is offset to some extent by the fact that the population of the world is increasing at a rate of about 20,- 000.000 a year and the population of the United* States at about 1,500,000 a year. There is consequently nothing over-optimistic in predicting an increased demand for American farm land and consequently for American farm products within a few years. tne car near the house there will be less danger from fire, tampering and pilfering as it will always be under the owner's eye. Where ever possible the material used in the walls and roof of the garage should be the same as that of the house. Concrete block are suitable and practicable for all classes of garages from the small one-car building rLOOR-.Pl.AK several cars, such as are built for the accommodation of car owners living in appartment houses. The block may be finished in stucco to harmonize with the house by the addition in the cement mix of color to produce the desired tint. An essential feature of garage design which is incorporated in these plans is the wide caves or overhang, which serve as a protection to the owner from rain or dripping water when locking the doors during wet weather. A door at the side will be found convenient for use when the car is not to be taken out. Garages are often heated from the house plant although there are many small inexpensive garage heaters which give perfect satisfaction. A flue for separate heating is shown in one of the floor plans and may be to the types with separate rooms for ' easily included in the others. FLOOtt. PLAN Special care should be given to the selection of the hardware for supporting and operating the large movable doors. Doors that stick and bind are a nuisance and an extra $10 spent on good hardware will more than repay the owner in comfort and convenience. A garage should be built to allow for plenty of working space about the car and even though the owner's car be of the smaller type, it is good ecenomy to build a garage to accommodate a large car, thus anticipating future needs. Built of concrete block, finished in stucco, a garage is practically permanent. Expense from repairs, painting and insurance are reduced to a minimum and the car owner is assured that his car has maximum protection. OUR POU I Western Michigan Is Vast Orchard; Yields Rich Fortune Yearly =^ PARTMENT Increase Egg Production by Efficient Hen House* "The raising of poultry is one important factor in the solution of the farm meat problem not only to furnish a change from pork and beef in the winter time but to take the place of the smoked or cured meats which are ordinarily used during the warm weather.

She produces in abundance and in splendid quality all the hardy fruits known to northern states and in addition enjoys a substantial annual income from crops commonly found in states to the south. The apple crop of 11320 totalled 16,- 500,000 bushels and sold for $12,705,- 000. B'rrien, Oakland, Alkgan, Van Iluier:, Oceana, Kent and Grand Traver.- vc counties profited principally fn-ni tins crop. Buyers from all very noticeable increase in land values. Tempering Influence of Grea' Lake* Aid Lake Superior on the north and Lake Michigan on the west have a distinctly modifying influence on the climate of the state, tempering the cold winds from the north and west. The effect is the same as that of the Pacific winds on the western portions of Washington and Oregon, only to a lesser degree. Thus nature has de- !earii!i\r markets come to during apple season. The west shore of Michigan is one great peach orchard extending from tht.' Indian^ border to Grand Traverse Hay. In 1','20 the harvest reached 1,.011().0011 bushels and was sold for :y),4"e! niju. i "nerrii's, grapes pears, strawberri". at.d ra.-nberries, are produced in Michigan in very important quantities, the state leading in the acreage for small fruits. Practically every county of western Michigan produces fruit with success and them the returns from those from agriculture. Michigan creed that Michigan not only can grow the hardy fruits common to most of the northern states, but is able to produce the more tender fruits that are denied to her neighbors less fortunately situated, During the cold periods in winter the daily minimum temperature at Grand Haven and Ludington average from 15 to 20 degrees warmer than at Milwaukee and Green Bay, only about 50 miles distan^but situated on the opposite side of Lake Michigan. in the spring, the water warms less in most of rapidly than the land, so that the fruit exceed | winds are relatively cool and delay the opening of the fruit buds until, in Spring Lambs Thrive on Forage Crops To avoid stomach worms and promote rapid growth in spring lambs with a minimum of labor and feeding cost, the use of forage crops is recommended by, experts of the United States Department of Agriculture. By this plan the ewes and lambs are put to graze on wheat or rye sown the preceding fall. Fresh grazing should be provided every two weks. This maybe done by subdividing the temporary pastures. While this crop is being grazed, a crop of soy beans or rape may be growing on other land for feed after the winter crop is gone. The land that bore the winter crop may then be replanted to any other crop that is seasonable. On request, the Bureau of Animal Industry, United States Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C, will supply further information on this and other phages of sheep raising. Getting a Big Yield of Beans The saying, "Too poor to grow beans," does not imply that beans will do well without an adequate bupply of plant food, in the form of manure, legume crops turned under, and fertilizers. The average acre yield of beans in Michigan this past year was 11.5 bushels. According to The Michigan Farmer, Mr. W. K. Denniaon, a Saginaw county farmer, harvested 108 bushels from a little over five acres, or 38 1-3 bushels per acre. Fred McClearly of Midland county produced 222 bushels on seven acres, or practically 33¾ bushels per acre. The most profitable crops of beans are secured when the soil is handled in the same way as for a profitable wheat, corn or oats crop. This means careful attention to plant food requirements, seed -election, and culture. The biggest yield.-* and best quality are obtained when the crop gets a quick start and has sufficient plant food for a steady growth and early ripening. A few days lost in starting or ripening the crop often means the difference between a profitable crop and an almost complete failure. A good bean fertilizer can be chosen from the following analyses: 3-12-4, 2-12-2, 2-16-2, and 0-16-0. On sands, sandy loams and light colored soils the 3-12-4 and 2-12-2 are the best analyses. On heavier soils, particularly where clover had been plower under or manure applied, acid phosphate is the proper fertilizer. The analysis should be selected with regard to type of soil, natural fertility, and previous cropping and treatment. Some Old Time Crops Have You Met Them? Did you miss your sassafras tea this spring? Have you saved any of the oldtime paw-paw bushes or trees? Do you have any hazelnut bushes in any of your old fence corners? Do you try to keep a supply of elderberry bushes? Hew about a hickory tree, a walnut tree or a butternut tree? In other places the chestnut or other nut trees grow. The May apple is common, or used to be in some sections. Do you recall the days when you wandered through the quiet woods in search of some of these bits of morsels that you liked to eat? Do we neglect to have these things? Not much work and a lot of oldtime memories are associated with some of these luxuries that just gTew wild and untamed.

There are different kinds of berries that grew wild, We wonder whether any of our readers ever dug up a sprouting beechnut and ate it? A walk in the woods takes you back to nature and makes you understand that there must be some great power somewhere to guide the world in its great swing and cycle among other worlds that inhabit the universe. o King Ferdinand of Rumania terminated his English visit recently. Queen Marie will be the guest of King George and Queen Mary for another fortnight. an Illinois poultry raiser was able to many times repaid him the amount invested. His house is 16 feet wide and 80 feet long. The front wall is five feet high and the rear wall five feet six inches. The low walls help conserve the heat given off by the fowls. The house has a south exposure with practically all windows and other opening on the south side. Plenty of sunlight is death to disease germs. Concrete construction permits the most complete sanitation because the house can very easily be cleaned and kept clean. It goes without saying that rats cannot gnaw through nor find nesting place in the concrete house. The smooth, dry, concrete floor, walls and foundation provide no cracks nor crevices to harbor lice, mites or other parasites which cause the poultryman so much worry and loss. Mr. Gardner's experience with his poultry house shows that increased egg production from a flock of 400 fowls amounts to. sufficient to pay for the house in four months. Preserving Eggs The season of the year for "putting down" or preserving egg* is at hand and many of our readers are asking for information as to just how this is best done. One method is so superior to all others that explanation is confined to it. The best method for prew i r i n g eggs is by the use of waterglass or, as the druggist describes it, Xdfem silicate. The work is so simple and the results are so good that Of course, nothing but nice clean eggs should be preserved. If the eggs are soiled they may be washed off with a damp cloth, but it better if only clean eggs just as they come from the nests are used. It is better also to put them in the preservative the very day they are laid, and as soon as the body heat of the hen has loft them It is not necessary to vvait for a whole jar to be done at once. Each day's spare eggs may be put down as they are gathered. No one protends that a stored egg of any kind is as good as a perfectly fresh one and usually it does not take an epicure to tell the difference between them. Nevertheless, an egg properly preserved by the waterglass method is a perfectly wholesome article of food and is tasty as well if used in cooking it will replace the fresh egg a full hundred per cent. More eggs should be preserved on the farm each year, and waterglass, also known as sodium silicate, provides the means by which anyone can do the work with a minimum of time, trouble and expense. Local drggists and grocers now have waterglass on their .•inelves and the price is reasonable, o Dr. Sun Yat-Sen, president of the South China government, whose death was reported to have occurred recently, is alive and perfectly well, his confidential secret-ary insisted to press representatives sent from Hong Kong to Sun's Canton headquarters, An interview with the president was denied.

Eastern States to Confer on Tuberculosis Eradication 1 ^r Leading veterinarians and livestock experts cf the country will discuss the progress and problems of tuberculosis eradication at the fifth annual conference of the Eastern States on the eradication of tuberculosis in livestock, to be held at Albany. N. Y., June 10, 11 and 12. The conference will be under the auspices of Livestock Sanitary Officials of Eastern States, New York Stale Veterinary Medical Society, New York Department of Farms and Markets and the Bureau of Animal Industry of the United States Department of Agriculture. Livestock sanitary officials and medical authorities will report on the problems of tuberculosis eradication. with particular reference to those of their respective states. Among the speakers will be Nathan Strauss, Jr., of New York City, United States Senator R. S. Copeland of New York, A. J. Glover, representing the agricultural press, Dr. J. R. Mohler, chief of the United States Bureau of Animal Industry, and Dr. J. A. Kiernan, chief of the Tuberculosis Eradication Division of the same bureau. The sessions and discussions will be open to the public. Both the economic and health aspects of tuberculosis will receive consideration. Headquarters of the conference will be at the Ten Eyck hotel and meetings will be held in Chancellors Hal! of the State Education building, Albany. (VContinued prevalence of cold Price* of Purebred Dairy Cattle Declined La«t Year Average sale prices of purebred dairy cattle for the year ending December 31, 1923, ranged from $133 for bulls under one year to $268 for bulls over three years of age, according to reports submitted by breeders to the United States Department of Agriculture. The breedjp included were: Ayrshire, Guernsey, Holstein, Jersey and Brown Swiss. More than twice as many animals were disposed of at private sale as were sold at auction. Auction prices however, averaged from $25 to $50 per head higher than those realized in private sales. Aged bulls were an exception, such animals bringing more in private sales than at auction. The following comparison by ages shows that prices in 1923 were somewhat lower than in 1922: Ages 1922 Bulla under one year $156 Bulls over one and under three years 221 Bulls over three years 435 Heifers under one year.... 131 Cows and heifers over one and under three.... 211 Cows over three years.... 285 The top bull and cow each brought $7,500. The number of animals represented were: Calves under one year 4,845; bulls over one year and under three 947; bulls over three years 156; heifers and cows over one year and under three 2,479, and cows over three years of age 2,977. 1923 $133 206 268 133 229 261 Sterilise Milk Utensils to Avoid Disease Risk Besides adding large numbers of bacteria to milk, unsterilised utensils teria.

' washed in contaminated water and I are not sterilized, disease bacteria may be introduced into the milk. Cans which have not been properly sterilized and dried give off foul odors after having stood for a while 4^ tightly covered. This is due to the action of decay-causing bacteria on particles of milk solids left in the cans. If such a can is washed and sterilized thoroughly the foul odor will not return upon standing. Utensils should be washed and sterilized immediately after use in order to prevent the multiplication of great numbers of bacteria on the inner surface of the utensils. In one experiment, milk showed 666,520 bacteria per cubic centimeter after coming in contact with un sterilized utensils, even though the utensils had been washed (but not sterilized) immediately after milking. In similar tests ia which eight hours were allowed to elapse before washing, the averag* factorial count of the milk was 1,- 667,000, or a million greater than when the utensils were washed immediately. The best remedies for dirty utensils are plenty of hot water, an alkali washing powder, a stiff brush, asd steam. First of all, the utensils must be thoroughly cleansed, as sterilisation is not a substitute for washing. First, rinse the utensils in cold or lukewarm water; then wash thoroughly until clean with hot water and washing powder, using a stiff brush.

MEN like to know the PRICE TAKE for example, a beautiful full page ad in the Sat* urday Evening Post showing a smart, swanky five passenger Coupe— The copy clearly describes the brakes and the bearings— the power and the prettiness. It tells you that here is an engine that makes mountains look like mole hills—and here are springs that turn mud roads into a King's highway! It gets you all enthused—and then it gets your goat by omitting the most important thing—the PRICE This store thinks that a clothing advertisement without a price is like delivering a Decoration Day speech celebration without mentioning the Flag. We cheerfully print our prices in our publicity—there is nothing about them to keep under cover or to scare you away. STYLEPLUS SUITS ALL WOOL AND HAND TAILORED $25 $30 $35 W. J. DANCER & CO.

Jack could think of these things now with less bitterness. Being sc far from perfect himself the blackness of Clang seemed less deep and unpardonable. He saw now that b* had been unjust and self righteous to a degree. "Too bad old Thornt can't know," he muttered. 'lie doted so much on his wee laddie; if he knew tonight he'd go through fire and water to look once again upon the face of his son." Meantime the vigil in the little back room of the cottage drew to a close. The breathing of the little sufferer grew fainter each momi'wt. Presently Mrs. Meadows touched the arm of her companiod and whispered: " H e is better now, Rat:h-1." The young wife started and moaned. She bent lower, listened and watched. No breath stirred the little breaths beneath the coverlid. The gray *>i death sat upon :he ten der cheeK bnd v: '<• zed the sot'c young eyes. " H e is d e a d - T h o r n t y ii dead!'* Rachel f.-U v <:ward, co-'erin.: th : silent babs. K I T sob a were the breaking o p oT that silenr sorrow of the past nights and days of watching. Her comp-t.on retired from the room feeling that it was better to leave the poor mother to herself for the present. Mrs. Meadows was worn out with her own vigils and was giad enough to rest. The night was unusually warm, for October, and feeling faint the woman threw open the outside door and stepped into the night. Sob after sob shook the wasted frame of Rachel Clang. It was hard so very hard to lose her baby boy. He was the last link, broken now, binding her to this sorrowing world. She^ wept unrestrainedly, murmuring at times the name of Thornton. At such a time she felt the need of the staying arm and voice of that husband who had solemnly promised to love and protect her through all the rough places. Where was! he now? Why did he remain away when his only child lay dying under the home roof tree? Bitterer than gall or wormwood were the thoughts of Rachel Clang. Where was that conscript father at a time like this? All the bitter days of the past few weeks huddled themselves about the soul of broken- spirited Rachel as she hung over the dead babe, trying desperately to pray. It was the turning point in the woman's life, All along she had found excuses for her husband. She saw in the men who would force him into the military service grim messengers of a power no less tyrannical than that of the Russian czar. All her passionate love for her dear Thornton had blazed anew over his sufferings—but now! The reaction had come. She beheld as by n g r r a t illumination the naked wickedness of the man who could thus desert her to her fate. Shp started up with a pitiful moaning cry at the sound of a step within the r t o m , the gaunt and quaking form of a man—Thornton Clang himself! S h e had d r e a m e d of his r e t u r n , bel i e v e d in it, c o u n t e d o n it w i t h a child's t r u s t and e n t h u s i a s m ; t h b w a s n o t w h a t s h e had l u n g e d for, nor w a s it s a t i s f y i n g to her h u n g e r - i n g h e a r t and s o u l . CHAPTER XXII T h e C o n s c r i p t at H o m e The young wife's prayer had been answered. Thornton Clang stood once more by her side and gazed, not into her Buffering face, but at the pallid one of the dead. While he stood there, he seemed taller, more attenuated and wretched than of yore. His straggles and triumphs had not been ssch as to add to his grace of bearing, or to give strength to a weak and bruised spirit. The pallor of the dead was no greater than that enthroned on the face of the outc a s t His black eyes were sunken coals of fire. Rijrid as an oak he stood. His clothed hung in loose folds about his attenuated limbs. Whatever was handsome about Thornton Clang was gone forever; he stood there the embodiment of wretchedness and hate. A clammy coldness crept over Rachel as she g n e d . " T h o r n t o n C l a n g ( t e n d i n g by the t i d e of his w i f e ' s b e d g a z i n g d o w n . ' The living statue moved at length and breathed. "Rachel," he whispered, bending low, "what has come upon our boy?" "Cannot you see?" huskily—"he is dead!" The once strong man fell upon his knees at the crib side and kissed with trembling lips the dead white cheek of little Thornton. It was then he understood. His feelings overcame him and he fell over the little form, weeping audibly. Why had he not come home sooner? Such was the thought that blazed in his dulled brain. There had never been a doubt about the affection of the elder Thornton for his little son. the sturdiest laddie in all Michigan. It was like wrestling with the Angel Death to the conscript father. He rocked and moaned, forgetting his own danger. His enemies could easily have overpowered him now, but he thoueht not of them, nor of the ill fate that had pursued him during the past few months. Rachel sat back, refusing to mingle her tears with those of her recreant husband. He had hidden in the woods like a thief while his little son lay moaning out his young life on a bed of pain. Somehow the | wife felt differently than she had expected at again seeing Thornton. With the death of her boy something went out of her life forever, and that something was the passionate love she had for so long borne the husband of her choice. The bowed and shaken man was pitiful in his abject misery, She shrank shuddering, and turned her gaze aside. The distant tap of a drum was borne to her ears, Marching lints of blue ffttel like yhostly figures down the winrow of her dizzy brain. How proud she might have been of this man; how humiliated and mean he had made her feel! Rachel got to her feet and stood regarding the shaking form of her husband for a silent five minutes. Touching his arm at length, she bade him look up. "Don't you know that you are in danger here?" she asked coldly. The sound of her voice awoke new feeling in his calloused soul. He roused to a sitting posture and gazed into the sad and wasted face of his wife. He was the cause of all this sorrow—even of baby Thornton's demise, a realization that sent a pang of remorse to his heart. The I man could feel much more deeply than most people imagined. His J was a fine-spun nature, critical and j self-loving perhaps, yet far better j balanced than anyone imagined save ! only Rachel. She had read his every [impulse arfght; she had stood with j him through all those weeks of anathema and suffering; she had been truly his guardian angel, his fast , and only unselfish friend. Was all to end in disaster at last? The man groaned at the thought. The lamp in the front room burned dimly, from whence came sounds of the .sleeping Mrs, Meadows. There was sufficient glow in the turned down name to touch the head of Rachel into prominence, to MOTHER:- Fletcher's Castoria is a pleasant, harmless Snbsti- StfeforCastor Oil, Paregoric, Teething Drops ami Soothing Syrups, prepared for Infants in arms and Children all ages.

The dastard husband gazed, trembled and grew faint. Such gentle, womanly loveliness had been all his; he had plucked it from out the very arms of a wealthier suitor ,and had builded a nest on hil uwn ground for his sweet partner only to make wicked wreck of it all! Ought he to blame the woman if ahe repudiated a coward, a vertebraeless creature like himself? All of which was submitted to his own soul during the few minutes that the twain faced each other at the cribside of their dead boy. 'Rachel, speak out," he groaned; "tell me that you hate and despise the wretch that I am. I know how I have tried you, what a coward I have been, how many, many times I have disappointed you. I have nothing to say in extenuation. I shall crave no mercy at your hands — not an atom. God knows I meant to do better. It must have been Satan that put thaj idea of escape into my head; I can*t account for it otherwise. Say the word and I'll go tomorrow and lay my head on the block. Would you be happier, dear, knowing I was in prison?" Her eyes glittered, her white chin, firm and delicate in its deeper whiteness because of the illness, was lifted higher; that trick of hers which had so often pleased him in other, happier days. The red lips moved but no words flowed out. She pressed her hand to her heart, reeling in her tracks. Instantly Thornton Clang was on his feet holding fast to his precious young wife. His passionate regard for her burst all bounds. He hugged the slender woman, bathing cheek, brow and lips with furious kisses. He almost smothered her with the warmth of his caresses. He revelled in a long forbidden happiness which it seemed impossible to satisfy. It seemed as though he could never get enough of her thus held to his wildly beating heart. Rachel, striving weakly to rebel, yielded at length, allowing the man to have his way. It was a way sweet to her even with all the past so horribly real before her. Beside the dead little boy husband and wife became reconciled. She responded to his kisses at length, and lay snuggled and sobbing against the conscript's heart. Ten minutes of soul communion passed. Again in fancy did the young lovers tread the sunny pathway of the honeymoon days and the whole world outside their two souls was as nought. After a while he led her to a chair caressing her soft waves of goldbrown hair as he did so. He engulfed her with his hungering eyes, standing in awe before this martyred soul, forgetting for the time the object that lay so near in that little walnut crib. They were soon able to talk, He told his story in a weak voice, for he had passed through a myriad of hardships since the fatal night of his escape from the pen. He had lingered in the neighborhood but a brief time, and had been far away while his wife was ill. It was news of this which strayed to him in his hiding that sent him back in wild fear to his old haunts. "I knew7 nothing about little Thornton," declared he in conclusion "It was of you I was thinking, Rachel, of you, my precious wife. I was ready to brave the gallows itself to see you once more." "Yes, Thornton," she acquiesced, thinking only of that night and its awful tragedy, "but why did you use a weapon—" "You are thinking of the death of poor Tim Downs," he interrupted quickly. "It is hard to tell; I must have been mad." "There was then no mistake," with sharp in drawing of her breath —"you shot the m a n ? " The wistful brown eyes sought her husband's face with an expression that haunted him long afterward, even when o*ber and deeper troubles encompasaed him. "I was mad at the time," he explained, "mad as a March hare. I had a pistol but did not shoot: no, no, never that—never!" He waa deeply agitated. She could J*?€ him tremble and see the moisture glisten on his forehead. "Can you be s u r e ? " she quavered doubtingly. "Yes, Rachel, I am very, very sure. God! if you will not believe!" His attenuated frame swayed, his long, slim hand thrust out as if to ward off some threatening evil. She took that hand and pressed it tightly her swollen eyes lifted tentatively to his face. "I do believe you, Thornton," ahe murmured. " I have hoped for this all along through t h e dark days of suspense. They have lied to me, making me very miserable," "Cheer up, Rachel," he said with sudden animation. "There are sorely better days in. store for both of us. The truth is bound to come out, after which we can be happy once more. Had he forgotten that stark little form in the crib? She had n o t Her gaxe went to the child; a wave of grief swept over her and she bowed he* head with the scalding tears flowing onee more. R e scarcely knew how to act. His fingers tightened over hers and he drew her dose again. Husband and wife stood reconciled above their dead. The tick, tick of the little old clock on the mantel in the front room made monotonous music. Slowly the seconds rounded into minutes. Someone v.aa likely, to surprise them at any moment. Neither thought of this, however, so wrapped up were they in each other, supremely happy, even though that feeling was marred by the death of the child. She accepted the husbard's declaration that he had not fired the shot that had slain Corporal Downs. A thousand and one questions suggested themselves, but she was 'n no fnoocl to ask them now. It was enough for the wife to lie folded against the heart of her liege lord and know that he was still worthy of 1 er great love, still to be a part of the future in her life. Yes, she felt that there must be a future, even for the erring, else God in His infinite wisdom would not have taken the little babe and thus fetched the father back to the fold. She forgot that he had not come because of the child, that he knew nothing of its illness and death till he had crossed the threshold of his home. Rachel could not afford to be critical at such a time. She drew her hand from his, asking him to sit down. For the first time she bethought herself of the fact that he must be nearly famished. Seeing him safely seated she went out to look for something for him to eat. Despite the dead a touch of tender thankfulness welled up in the heart of Rachel Clang. She was to have Thornton once more. She never doubted his innocence even though it might not be susceptible of proof just now. She would know, which was sufficient for her own heart, and the time would come when the whole world should acknowledge it. She moved softly lest she rouse the sleeping Mrs. Meadows. Scant danger of that, since the good woman, almost dead for want of sleep, could only be roused by the blast of a cannon. Where was Jack? This query suddenly presented itself. The boy had been out of her mind for some time. He could not be far away she thought. What if he shoulJ come in suddenly and find Thornton? Rachel chilled at the thought. The boy was so set against her husband now it would take more than ordinary argument to convince headstrong Jack that it was his duty to remain quiescent. Lunch ready Rachel stepped to the door, opening it. The night was mild for the season. There were many noises in the dark; creak of insects, croaking of frogs while the wind sighed and moaned through the trees like a human soul in distress. There was no sound of human enemy and she felt relieved. The woman had learned to regard nature as her friend, while for man she distrusted him to the uttermost.

O U l c e s is. )4) CUiea WEEK OF JUNE 15 With the beginning of this week temperature in Michigan will have begun its climb back to normal and above. The week starts in the midst of a storm period of rain and wind. However, by the middle part of the week the sky will have cleared off and several days of sunshiny weather will rule. The nights during this latter period are expected to be moderately cool for the season. The last half of this week is expected to develop generally fair weather in Michigan with the probable exception of Saturday, when weather conditions will begin to become unsettled. On this latter date showers and thunder-storms will probably occur in many parts of the state. We believe that weather conditions throughout the United States during part of last week and most of this will not show any marked activity. Shortly after full moon of this month and when the phase is showing an appreciable waning, storm action will intensify somewhat and wind and rain storms will be more severe than for some time back. Following the last quarter moon change about the 23d and continuing with a more or less prominent degree until after new moon in July, temperatures generally will be low for the season. These conditions for the country as a whole will not be serious although we believe the thoughts and eyes of the nation will be centered upon agricultural prospects during the coming month as a result of the weather conditions during May and June. The mental sun of the farmer will shine bright during July, but we cannot say as much for him during the two months following. o A severe earthquake was felt in Seattle, Wash., recently. Residents pronounced it the most severe tremor in the district for many years. No damage was reported. First Lepers for New Additional Buildings at Carville, Louisiana "The first of the additional buildings provided by Congressional A c t of February 20, 1923, to enlarge the National Leper Home at Carville, Louisiana, have been completed and twelve lepers who had been temporarily detained elsewhere were removed to Carville, April 4," Surgeon General Cummins of the U. S. Public Health Service, stated recently. "The additional buildings, all of which are under construction, will be rapidly made available for patients in the order of their completion and it is believed that they will be fully occupied within a few months. The appropriation, amounting to $650,000, provides additional beds for approximately 240 patients and increases the present capacity of the institution to more than 400. The Home will, however, still lack a hospital building proper for the care of the blind, crippled, tuberculous, insane and other classes of patients requiring nursing and highly specialized care. The need for a therapy building where instruction may be given in arts and crafts and other diversional employment is also felt by the patients of both sexes, who necessarily require some employment or amusement in this place w h e r e they are confined for life or until they recover." _ — o— Between usings, soak the paint brushes in turpentine.

One of t h e chief problems in the care of food is to make these conditions so unfavorable t h a t microorganisms can not live or at H a s t are unable to develop, without at the same time m a k i n g undesirable changes in the food itself. Pasteurisation of milk does this by raising the temperature for a certain time to a point that destroys undesirable bacteria, but does not cook the milk. Most microorganisms are sensitive to cold also, a t least t o the extent t h a t growth is more or less checked by a temperature of 40 degrees to 60 degrees F. D r y i n g is another w a y t o prevent t h e growth of microorganisms in foods. Dried f r u i t s and vegetables, f o r instance, m a y keep f o r months in a cool dry place, b u t as soon as water is added to them they will spoil a s quickly a s fresh kinds. Direct sunlight destroys m a n y microorganisms, tant the dim light of the cellar i s j u s t right for some molds. . Bacteria of various sorts m u s t be dealth with in the care of food. Lactfe- acid bacteria, for example, cause milk to sour but do not necessarily make it unwholesome, and are an aid in making butter and cheese. Other kinds, however, make foods putrefy and decay, and still others develop dangerous poisons. In addition, foods are sometimes contaminated in various w a y s with t h e bacteria of such diseases a s typhoid fever and paratyhoid, tuberculosis, diphtheria, and dysentery. F o r instance, the bacteria of typhoid and paratyphoid a r e transmitted to food a s it is handled by persons who carry these organisms in their bodies though t h e y are apparently healthy. Yeasts generally show their presence in foods containing sugar by fermenting them, as often happens in stewed or canned fruits or fruit juices. Some of these wild yeasts have been domesticated, as it were, and p u t to work in leavening bread and m a k i n g kefir, koumiss, and other feremented milk beverages. Bacteria sometimes interfere with the action of yeast in bread making and develop sour or other bad flavors or make the bread slimy or unnatural in color. Molds spread through food a s delicate velvety or powdery growths of various colors, feeding on some of the substances and causing changes in texture and flavor. A s in the case of bacteria and yeasts, some molds are cultivated and introduced into food to produce special effects. The flavor of Roquefort and Camembert cheese, for example, is due to the development of certain molds. Since the spores of molds are easily blown about in the air and are fairly resistant to heat, the housekeeper has to be constantly on the watch, especially in damp, w a r m weather, a g a i n s t molds on or even near foods. Chopped Piccalilli This recipe calls for onions, but they can be omitted and a little more tomatoes, slice, and sprinkle a cup of salt over them and let stand over night. In the morning drain and chop. I use the coarsest grinder of m y food chopper. To six q u a r t s of chopped tomato and three pints chopped onion (14 medium o n i o n s ) , one cup of chopped green peppers (about five peppers,) six cups brown sugar, one cup of white s u g a r , one quart vinegar, one rounding teaspoon allspice* three rounding teaspoons cinnamon, one-half teaspoon cloves.

Y o u r s truly, Marie Torrey Oakley, Michigan To the y o u n g couple, who w a n t a home of t h e i r own but feel that they cannot afford to build, this house w a s planned especially for them. It is sort of a "build a s you can" plan and it is not a n uncommon sight in the rural districts to see half a house sticking up in huraerous fashion, this being all t h e home builder can take care of at o n e time. A s the finances grow, so does the house. T h i s is home building in the truest sense of the word. The r i g h t hand side of the plan will form a comfortable home to start with and i s so designed that it forms a complete unit to which the living room and second bedroom can be added later. In place of the partition between s t a i r s and living room, a temporary wall wouM be built and removed later on when the growing family and additional savings make ft possible t o complete the house. The young couple will find that the small dining room, kitchen, bedroom and bath will take care of all their needs and they c a n look forward to the delights of t h e fine living room and big bedroom which will be added later. The w a l l s of the Momingside were designed f o r concrete block construction, covered with Portland cement stucco. Concrete blocks are easily laid, even b y unskilled labor, and the coat of t h e stucco finish, even if put on by skilled men, is not excessive KCONO r u n m m and will soon pay for itself in the saving found by omission of annual painter's bills. Although concrete block should be laid sn portland cement mortar to get best results, it will be advisable to lay up the temporary wall of the stairs in lime mortar if the house is built in two sections. These blocks can then be easily taken down w i t h - out damage and re-used in the final, permanent walls of the living room. The plan can be further extended for a large family by building an " L " a t the rear o p p o s i t e the kitchen en* trance. This would allow for one or two more rooms on the ground floor and corresponding bedrooms above. The fireproof nature of concrete block would make It possible to build a garage safely in this position w i t h r i m f u » t HAM sleeping porch or bedrooms over, if desired. Slooping roofs are often objected to because of their heat in summer and added fuel consumption i n w i n - ter. This can be overcome b y the use of modern insulating materials (such a s flaxlinujn or eelotez) which are being found very effective i n insulating roof construction against extremes of temperature. The use of these insulating materials enables the home builder t o take advantage of tbe great economy of the gambrel type of roof, so common in Dutch Colonial designs and in the Cape Cod farmhouse, a s the roof serves the doable purpose of roof and wall, white tbe sturdy masonry of the concrete block ends heps the building rigid and firs* a g a i n s t the buffeting of equinoctial PiNCXMKY DMPATCH ..#, l%- v - ^ » - 3r.- I*: Farm and Garden H A T S 10c—25c For Men, Boys, Women, Children GXEGOftY C.

Of course I real.ze that agriculture has had pretty hard sledding during the last few years. I do not know how long it is going to take agriculture to come into its own. I do know that it will some i day, and I do know that the first poo-1 pie that make money out of the operations of farm lands will be the Mich- ( igan farmers. There are several reasons for this. First, there i» no state thing from a threshing machine to a clothes pin. She is sending automobiles, threshing machines, gasoline engines, farm machinery, and every kind of manufactured product all over the world and is bringing back in turn money to be distributed in the manner of payment for salary and the purchase of raw material. Money is coming into this state from every known quarter of the globe and that is the reason that the consumers in Michigan should be in the best position to purchase the products of the farm. Michigan has a population of about 3.G70.UU0 people of whom 1,140,207 live on the farms, 286,645 live in villages and cities of 2,500 inhabitants or less, and, strange as it may seem. can transport its agricultural products to those same localities. What is taking place on the eastern seaboard is also taking place on the western seaboard and unless the St. Lawrence river project is completed so as to allow ocean-going traffic to reach the Great Lakes, there may be a moving of some of the industries from the middle west to the Atlantic seaboard where they can get the cheaper water transportation providing they can be furnished with an abundant food supply from the South American countries. The size of Michigan can best be realized when we say that she cornthird of the area of the state, is what is known as undeveloped or cut-over land, and one of the problems confronting the state is how to handle You don't hear much about the spring canker worm among commercial orchardists because the same net of poison that the commercial orchardist puts out for the codling moth or other fruit pesta destroys the canker worm as a matter of course. And ihe canker worm may never be noticed at all in the orchard that receives constant care. But in certain sections of the country the canker worm is the greatest danger the unsprayed farm orchard has to meet, and now all about me I see thousands of trees that the small pest took by working two consecutive seasons. I well remember my excursions into the worm-infested orchards with a specialist who went there in an effort to warn the farmers of the danger. The trees were by that time almost bare of leaves. If we struck a tree smartly the tiny worms came tumbling earthward along their silken webs as a means to possible safety from attack. Let quiet prevail for a moment and we would see thousand^ of the worms scaling their webs tc devour the foliage of the trees again Occasionally there was a farmei who heeded the warning to spray anr his orchard was therefore very easily saved. Such orchards hung heavy with fruit in the fall, while the resl were black and dead and tottering. It took only two years of defoliatior for the great army of worms to kil! the trees. Codling moths may attacl the blossoms season after season wit! no disastrous results to the tree. Bu" let the canker worm attack the tre< itself and there will be no apples tc follow, either wormy or otherwise. The canker worms overran about three whole townships in Pottawat tamie county, near Council Bluffs, e few years ago. The first year they stripped the trees. The owners believed that the attack would be for e single year only, so they took no precaution the season afterward. The worms came again and defoliated the trees before means could be assem bled to kill them. Two years of defoliation in succession is more than any tree can bear, so the trees died This is a region that was set out in commercial orchards years ago wher. it was thought that spraying was not necessary in Iowa, and then general farming claimed most of the attention of the men who had them under control. R. B. Dilts was one man who took the warning of the orchard specialist and sprayed his trees. He not only saved the trees, but he got so much better results in fruit production that he has sprayed every year since, and has finally quit general farming and devoted most of his time to his twenty-acre orchard.

The roads, in generil, are far in advance of the Lower Peninsula roads, although many people still think of the Cloverland as being undeveloped. in the anion where good farm lands can he purchased as cheaply as they can in the state of Michigan. There never was the fluctuation in the price of farm lands in this state that there was in other states. When the great industrial wave started with the coming of the automobile its home was in Michigan -and consequently the boys and the girls from the Michigan farms commenced to desert the farms and the firesides and go up to the manufacturing center*. The parents were anxious to go to the cities where they could make homes for their children and consequently offered their farms for sale. As a result of this, when farm lands were increasing in value in the other state*, due to the industrial activity and the demand for food by the consumers that worked in the factories. the Michigan farms were being offered for sale in such large quantities as to keep the price very low. The result was that during the whole period of fluctuation in farm values, the rang* in Michigan was only from $84 to $91 per acre, while in other states the range was from $150 per acre to as high as $600 per acre. A large number of consumers to use the predicts of the farms is an ideal condition in any state. The value of a farm product to the farmer when sold in the great markets in competition with products from other countries and states is fixed by the price the consumer pay*, less all charge* for handling and transportation. The nearer home the farmer sella Wa product, the lesser freight and the) leaser handling charge he will fcaw to pay, and the lesser competi- _$Sm *« will have, consequently he ~tho«ld receive more for his product b a great manufacturing j h s avannfactures about evnry- 1,200,000 people, or more than the total number living upon the farms • of Michigan, reside within the torn-; tory embraced in the city of Detroit, j This will give us a n idea of the con- [ •umers in the state and the home narket that industrial Michigan furnishes to the farmers, I am thoroughly convinced that' ' V lake states' region in which Michtr^ n is situation, is destined to be the i tmnary, the workshop, and the play-1 ground of the world.

This will give an outlet to the products of the fields and factories of this state and will have a (Treat effect upon her future prosperity. We are just coming to realise that the middle west is operating at somewhat of a disadvantage so far «*s transportation is concerned. , Since the completion of the Panama Canal we find that agricultural products from the South American republics can be shipped by water through the Panama Canal to the ea.<tem seaboard at a very low water rate and then distributed back into the country a considerable distance for a lesser freight rate than the middle west this great natural resource in such a manner as to be of the most value to the people of the state as a whole. It is generally estimated that 5,000,- 000 acres are suitable for agriculture and that about 7,000,000 acres can best be used for reforestation and recreational purposes. Michigan will again produce a forest of white pine, Norway spruce, or hemlock, and there is no good reason why the fire should not be prevented from running over this area and that the area should not be planted to seedlings. Michigan offers greater recreational possibilities to the tour st than any state I know of. In the Upper Peninsula, that great Empire beyond the Straits, it offers scenery that in grandeur is not excelled in Switzerland. It has hundreds of lakes at an altitude of 2,500 feet. The unsettled regions of the Lower Peninsula are dotted with lakes and traversed by streams, The coo) and moist breezes from the Gerat Lakes remove the scorch from the air, thus furnishing Michigan with a cool, balmy atmosphere that is hard to excel The trees that cover northern Michigan are giving off 40 times their weight in moisture, thus assisting the Great Lakes in the task of so tempering the atmosphere as to not dry the skin of the tourist, hut on the contrary to maintain the blush upon the maiden's cheek. A wonderful state is Michigan with ! 1,600 miles of shore line, 75,000 miles of wagon roads, 14,000 miles of improved state highways, thousands of lakes and rivers, a beautiful climate, wonderful horticultural possibilities, great in agriculture, with a home market furnished by consumers that labor in the factories of industrial Michigan.—"The Michigan Property Owner," Lansing, Mich. Keeping Boys on the Farm In these days of high wages and none too favorable market conditions, the farmer who has a good stout son or two to help with the farm work, is a mighty fortunate man. Many (armors have found ways of interesting their boys in farm life, and in niobt cases these are the farmers who arc making the most money out of farming. If you will just look around a b;t and observe the farmers who pave growing sons working on their farms, you will readily see the truth in this. The best way to keep a growing boy on the farm is to keep him interested in farm work and farm life. Young lads are keenly imaginative, and up to the age of 20 or 25, the outside world has a strong appeal to them. They hoar about mechanical iobs in the cities and this brings to their minds an imaginative picture of pand and develocity life. They feel an urge to expand and develop their latent talents, and they imagine that the city affords them a better opportunity to realize their ambition. This desire can usually be satisfied just as well on the farm as in the cities—if the boy is given the right opportunity at home. For instance, it is a well known fact that the majority of farm boys have a strong "leaning" towards things of a mechanical nature. An example of this is their desire to run engines and machinery of various kinds. If the farm does not provide the means of satisfying this desire, the boy is likely to seek the opportunity elsewhere, in the city. But give that boy an engine to tinker with—eo that he can satisfy his craving for mechanics to his heart's content—and it is safe to say that he will be more willing to stay on the farm. Nothing serves this purpose better than the all-around type of farm engine. This is because an engine of this type can be used for almost all kinds of farm work, the year around —for such things as pumping water, grinding feed, sawing wood, loading ensilage, running a lighting system, cream separator or churn—and scores of other uses. Thus the allaround farm engine serves a double purpose. It not only keeps the farm hoy interested and satisfied with farm work, but it is also a big money maker for the fanner. -o Michigan U Melon State Michigan is an important cantaloupe and muskmelon producing state, holding ninth place in this crop which is confined largely to the south. During very recent years considerable study has been given to the crop and as a result a very fine variety, "hearts of gold," has been produced in Berrien county. Berrien, Wayne, Kent and St, Clair counties lead in this crop. With the Cows in Summer Wick O, Leach, a Grant county, Indiana, farmer makes his cows pay by summer feeding. Mr. Shugart, in the same county, who make* a living and a little more by retailing milk to his county seat, feed* the year around regulating the amount of feed somewhat to conform with the available pasturage a practice that is becoming more and more general among men who watch the production chart. Clint Duling is just an ordinary farmer who started with his father some four years ago, farming the home place of sixty acres and some rented ground outside of the home farm. He worked thirds, the elder Duling furnished the land and twothirds of the equipment. In three years Clint paid for his one-third interest in about $4,000 worth of per-j *onal property and had enough money , left to take over the management of \ the home farm when the elder; Duling moved to town. Renting out- ; ude ground has been discontinued and ! lain,- cows are an important source.! \ silo three or four acres of alfalfa ' ind a feed grinder are factors which ; help to keep the cows good. They receive feed regularly during the summer. "We like to feed enough so the cows :ome in from the pasture regularly , ind go to their stanchions as a matter if course," Duling says. "We ruilk in he barn winter and summer and find hat the contented cow is not a joke, ^he is easier handled, milks out better and gives more milk by being regilarly fed. Our summer feeding on :ood pasture is light but we think it lecessary." A good many men who specialize in :ows, find summer feeding makes for better fall calves. The cow is in better condition to stand the strain of l i v i n g and goes into winter in good hape. Flies are a pest that can be greatly -educed by sanitation and a judicious ise of sprays. Accumulations of old traw, manure and rubbish should be -emoved as the first step in reducing 'oss from flies. Keeping the interior ~>f the stables darkened during the heat of the day is another means of lessening fly worry. On some of the more exclusive dairy farms I have found all windows and ^ther entrances equipped with screens This of course, is the ideal way but most of us cannot achieve the ideal. Our cattle barns for the most part are simply additions or divisions of the regular farm barn which is also used as a granary house barn and implement shed. We have found that hanging curtains at the top half of the door and over the windows is very helpful in summer. Old gunny sacks can be used for the purpose and w*e like to have the door curtain low enough to sweep the cow's back as she enters. The burlap over the windows keeps the interior darkened and admits considerable air. Fly sprays are not a cure-all but they do have a place in summer dairy- ;np,\ We have had the best results from the commercial sprays which ~ost from $1 to $1.50 per gallon. We usually make a spray application just nfter the morning milking and before the cows are turned to pasture. A spray which is being used successfully by some dairymen and which can be made at home consists of two quarts fish oil, one quart oil, one quart of tar and two or three ounces of crude carbolic acid. These ingredients are mixed but must be sprayed lightly or blistering may result,— W. C. S., Ind. In "Successful Farming." Better Breeding Pays The record* that cows make speak strongly and clearly as to the merits of different methods of feeding. On numerous occasions cows have proved that they give more profitable returns when certain methods are followed. The question has arisen in the minds of all practical men, aa to what the same cows would do under the somewhat superior methods used on some farms and at the experiment stations. Along with this has arisen the question as to whether or not the methods used on the better farms and on the experiment stations would be profitable on the average farm. To obtain light upon these two points, the Indiana Experiment Station, carefully kept record on a number of cows for a year. These cows were on ordinary farms and were handled and fed just as the owner planned to feed and handle them. The men from the experiment station did not try to influence the feeding or management. They wanted the cows to be fed exactly as the farmer owners would have fed them under ordinary conditions. As the feed the farmers used was studied, it was noted that there was a distinct lack of alfalfa and clover in the ration. Timothy hay, corn fodder, shredded stover, corn stalks and straw were largely used as roughage. These did not furnish a sufficient amount of protein. Likewise the grain mixture was lacking in protein. Another condition observed was that there was too much dependence upon pasture. Cows were left in the pasture even though they could not secure enough feed. Mature cows in their prime were selected for this test in order that they might have the same ability to produce on the farm and at the experiment station. After ovs year's record on the farm, the cows were taken to the station farm for observation record for a year, under conditions that would tend to produce a higher yield. On the station farm the cows were given alfalfa hay and corn silage for roughage, and a grain mixture consisting of four parts corn, two parse oats and one part oil meal. Hoistein cows were fed one pound of grain for each four or five pounds of milk. The Guernsey and Jersey cows were fed grain at the rate of one pound to each two and one-half or three pounds of milk. The result at the end of the year showed a big increase in profit over the cost of feed. The cows had eaten 65 per cent more feed daring the year but the profit, after that extra feed had been paid for, was 74 per cent above the profit made the year before. This means a sufficient number of cows to return $1,000 above the cost of feed under the previous feeding methods would roturn $1,740 above the cost of feed under the method used by the experiment station. The method of feeding used by the station is extremely simple and can be readily duplicated by thousands. Alfalfa and corn silage can be produced on a large proportion of our farms. For the grain ration the corn and oats can likewise be produced on the farm. This means that only the small amount of oil meal used is all that need be purchased. Furthermore, those who will take the trouble of growing soy beani as a grain crop need buy no protein concentrates at all. OUR POU PARTMENT Mating for Improvement. Poultrymen of the University of Arizona have demonstrated to their] own entire satisfaction that it is possible to increase the productivity of poultry by careful selection and breeding. The following is quoted from a recent report by Harry Embleten of that institution: "The flock average in our S. C. White Leghorns ranged from 130 eggs to 140 eggs and no matter what changes were made this would not be increased. At that time four cockerels from a ben which had laid 280 eggs as a pullet were purchased and mated to the flock which averaged ISO eggs. From this mating 70 pullets were matured and then trapnested for months. In checking up on the trapnest records at the end of the 12 months period, it was found that 25 per cent of the 70 pullets had averaged 216 eggs and the range in production in this group was from 200 eggs to 243 eggs. Seventy-seven per cent of the 70 pullets averaged 190 eggs each, and but very few remaining went below 140 eggs. This increase in production could only have been brought about through the influence of the male, for the birds were in the same houses, getting the same feed, and being fed by the same feeder. And the most encouraging p a * H H t i n * * • brought In one generation.' Baron's White Leghorns Tom Baron of White Leghorn fame is a breeder who has made a remarkable success. He has followed his own methods in mating his birds and in producing the excellent family of Leghorns which bear his name. * We quote his exact words on thef, production of new blood: "Suppose you think you have inbred or that you are inbreeding, and you want to produce some new blood at any tuna. It is far preferable to manufacture this new blood yourself than to go outside your own yards for it, unlaw you go to the same breeder you started from in the first butane*. Pick out a pen of females as unrelated aa possible, and mate them to two two cockerels entirely unrelated to the hens and also unrelated to other. Use one cockerel on the of hens for five days and than alternate for five days with the cockerel. In this way you will facture blood that is marvelous for mating to almost any hens and velous for laying, too. I have no wny for mating my birds, but I tkaan unrelated as nearly and always try to mate my pens wftti cockerels bred from the highest pedigree hens possible, provided that* pedigreed hens have a good constHation and provided, also, that they t o not lay a small egg or a roughanelknl egg or a badly shaped egg* tints* «< tint *' * - ^ ^ stead." im mm tmmmmm mwmm mmmm MEMORIES OF LINCOLN AND MY CIVIL WAR SERVICE By JAMES H. HASK1NS, HOWARD CITY = = * (Tr MICHIGAN! Land of Prosperity <sse> •*** When Lincoln Laughed Mr. Lincoln said that they should come back and called one of them by his given name (I think it was Dick). T h e president went down to meet them, shaking first one by the hand and then the other, throwing his left arm over the man's shoulder and holding onto his hand. As one of the callers made some remark the president laughed right out, the only real carefree laugh that I ever heard him make. I w a s coming toward them all the t i m e so I was quite near when the president met the men. One of them proved to be the war governor of Illinois, (Richard Yates) as I soon had reason to know. On the 16th, the Sunday after the shooting of the president, we did not allow any one t o come to the White House. The governor came and wanted to come in, and after I had stopped him he told me who he was and I passed him in. The Pretident ft Martyr On the 14th day of April, the day on which President Lincoln was shot, the party left the White House for the theatre between 9 o'clock and five minutes past nine. The president's carriage stood in the driveway under the porch when I went on guard at 9 o'clock, but started out almost immediately after I w a s placed on post. T h e n e w s of the shooting came back to u s from the theatre about half-past ten, and Robert Lincoln at once started on foot and alone for his Father's bedside. We soon doubted the guard and waited results and in a short time the carriage came for the housekeeper. Tad, who had been to Grover's theatre with the footman, wanted to g o to his father but Burke, then coachman, told him that his father w a s not seriously hurt and persuaded him not to go. Wh«a the Blow Fell When I was on post, between 7 and 9 o'clock the next morning, Tad came out on the porch and began talking as chipper as could be, telling me that be had gone to bed at 12 o'clock and got up at 6 and how well he had slept. If you can't make money in Michigan you might just as well give up hop« of ever making it While he was talking so happy the president's carriage drove up and as soon aaTTad saw the coachman crying, he- Wrung his hands and cried out, "Oh, my papa is dead, my papa is dead." He then ran to his mother and covered his face in the folds of her dress and thus entered the house. Mrs. Lincoln entered the house with a son on each side of her. That was the last time that I saw Mrs. Lincoln. I The president's remains were | brought to the White House shortly before noon on the 15th and prepared for burial. The mahogany coffin was placed on a catafalque in the east room. The White House was heavily draped in black, great webs of black cambric being festooned from one window to the other and from the house to and around the pillars of the porch. Field officers passed back and forth beside the coffin being relieved every two hours the same as the soldiers wTho kept walking outside. There were no lamps or lights on the outside of the house that night and it surely looked like, and was a house of mourning.

If the authorities weren't quoted you would doubt some of the statements made. That's because you haven't known Michigan. Nobody i has. Why should you make money in Michigan? Simply because you are in a state that fairly staggers with opportunities. Just consider these facts: Michigan i« the mo»t pro«perou» • tate in the Union. Michigan wage* are the highest in the Union, and that means in the world. Michigan is the most rapidly-growing industrial state in America. Do these things have any significance? What do we mean by a "land of opportunity" a n y w a y ? Isn't it just a place where m o n e y is being made and where we may have a chance to make some of it? We hear a lot about the fortunes to be made in almond and citrus cultivation. Check up on those "fortunes" and then take a peek at the incomes of some of the people owning little fruit and vegetable patches over in western Michigan. "Irrigated lands" of half a dozen states have clamored for Michigan money but what do we want of these when our own farm lands are producing more dollars per acre than those of any of the great agriculturl states? We can get our crops to market after they are matured. Business opportunities? The Michigan merchant has customers 12 months out of the year and his buyers are the most prosperous in the world. Industrial opportunities? What is more logical than to expect success within an area which already has demonstrated itself to be pre-eminently suited to industry and from which 40 per cent of the nation's population may be reached overnight? Here is more food for thought? Michigan has practically no great business failures. Michigan's labor troubles are so slight to be hardly worth consideration. Michigan's industries are so strongly financed that progressive expansion is safely possible. And aren't alt these things important in our appraisal of a state? There is another particular in near town growing to the fore they w e n water. pu-he The fry were planted in the pond in late spring and in early fall the Lapeer folks drained the pond with the idea of catching the tinge>-ling brook trout and taking them to other waters. But after the pond had been drained and the boys with the clip nets were operating, they found to their chagrin that instead of brook trout rlngerlings they were catching chubs and shiners and other varieties of fish. They wrote a letter to Mr. Baird to tell him that if he didn't know the difference between the trout and chubs and shiners, etc., he ought to take a correspondence course on fi.-'h culture. These are the men who claim 1: does seem that Michigan has her share of men of this type—perhaps more than her share if we were to consider a plan of aportionment. PerVaps at times we are just a bit neglectful in expressing our appreciation of what these men have done for the state. True it is that many important considerations have united harmoniously to lift Michigan to her present towering industrial position, but m e n — b i g m e n — h a v e been a dominant factor. Great industrial institutions do not I come into being by accident. Their ] success is not a matter o! chance. We should bear these point* in mind and we should be cautious less our disagreement with some particular view of. this man or that, blind our eyes to what he is doing for Michigan. And what of the future of Michig a n ? Who can doubt the promise of the years ahead? If we possessed nothing but our encircling shoreline we might be hopeful, for with its appeal to the recreationist and with its convenience to the shipper, Michigan could not long remain unimportant. If we were deprived of all hut our farm lands, there would be much to which we might look forward, for the stability of our agriculture has been proven. If there remained only industry, we still would find satisfaction in our future for our proximity to commanding markets would guarantee that this area could not long be avoided.

Fanciful as it may sound, here is the recent occurrence as reported to the United States Department of Agriculture by Dr. W. T. Conway, a Federal veterinary inspector stationed in Pittsburgh. A farmer near Wilkensburg, Pa,, had been a regular listener-in on the series of talks being broadcasted from Pittsburgh on the activities of the Bureau of Animal Industry. One of the talks was on the subject of tuberculosis eradication. His interest thus aroused turned to one of his own cows which had been noticeably unthrifty and affected with a bad cough. He went to the local office of the Bureau of Animal Industry for advice. The inspector in charge informed the State representative of the case. The State man then made three futile attempts to reach the farm by following the directions which the farmer left. Failing to reach the inquirer in this manner, the farmer w a s "paged" by radio from station K D K A . It w a s announced t h a t efforts had been made to reach hira and if he were listening in to get in touch again with the office. Two days later the farmer came to the office. Arrangements were then made to conduct the State representative to the farm for an examination of the suspected animal. The symptons were suspicious and arrangements were planned for an official test. o Longer Hike Around Michigan Shoreline Than to Hudson Bay If you were standing on the shore of Lake Erie at the point which marks the boundary line between Michigan and Ohio, y o n would be considerably nearer KnoxvilU, Tennessee, than the northernmost point in Michigan—the tip of Keween a w Point. Traveling as the crow flies, it would require a longer flight to reach K e w e e n a w Point than to reach Winona, Minn.; Davenport, Iowa; S t Louis, M o . ; Nashville, Knoxville or Chattanooga, T e n n . ; Raleigh, N. C ; Richmond, V s . ; Baltimore, Md.; Philadelphia or Ottawa, Canada. Traveling by rail or motor, one would save in distance by choosing N e w York City. Atlanta, Birmingham or S t Paul a s a destination, a s against the t i p of K e w e e n a w . Starting from t h t j o i s t w e have indicated, it would be a shorter trip to visit any city in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, West Virginia or Kentucky than to reach the northern tip of Michigan. Assume you were in a hiking mood and decided to pace Michigan's shoreline. You might, with no greater distance traveled, stroll from Detroit down to Palm Beach and Miami and inspect Key West; you might look over N e w Orleans and Galveston, you might step out to Denver or Cheyenne, or you might pace far, far up Hudson Bay. We've seen all kinds of "trick" hikers. N o w let's find one to walk Michigan's shoreline. — "Michigan Property Owner." o Wet Leather Burns More Readily Than Dry he takes j three kernels from an ear of corn, I plants the kernels m a box marked off j in squares, keeps the box in a warm j place for five days, during which time I the kernels germinate, if thoy are productive, and then checks up on the original ears. If all three kernels germinate, that ear of corn is jjener- ' ally 100 per cent efficient and is marked as such. Ears less than 66 per cent efficient are not considered pood risks for planting. By following the Wheater plan the farmer can pre-determinc if he is going to plant corn certain to grow or if he is plant- ' ing corn that will not reproduce. Ho can provide his own hothouse in his own home at no expense and, by a bit of care, save himself the task of trudging over many acres to replant 1 kernels that would never sprout. Nothing more discouraging than a constant backache. Lame when you awaken, pains pierce you when you bend or lift. It's hard to work or to rest. Backache often indicates bad kidneys and calls for prompt treatment. The best recommended remedy is Doan's Pills. Profit by this man's experience: Dell Totten, machinist, 320 North Ave., St. Louis, Mich., s a y s : "My back bothered me when I stooped or lifted anything. Sharp cutting pains darted all through by back and hurt me every time I made a quick turn or move. My kidneys were very weak and irregular in action. The secretions were often highly colored and painful in passage. I saw in the paper how Doan's Pills were used by so many folks and I decided to try them. A Few boxes of Doan's fixed me up in good shape.'' Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Pills—the same that Mr. Totten had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y. Several millions of brook trout fry have been successfully planted this spring by the Department of Conserj vation through the use of motor driven apparatus. Eleven trucks are operating at that many hatcheries. Tans containing a few thousand trout fry are loaded onto the trucks and trained hatchery men then take the | fry to the respective districts into which they are ordered. Arriving on j the scene they are met by game wardens familiar with every stream and j with every inch of the country. The ' trained hatchery men know just Wet leather is damaged much more ' w h e r e to P I a n t t h e fr^ a n d exercise readily by heat than dry leather, says t h e Bureau of Chemistry, United S t a t e s Department of Agriculture. B u t it is hard to g e t the average user of leather to keep this in mind, and as a consequence much leather is damaged by being subjected to high temperatures when damp. Leather which has been burned by being too close to a stove or steam pipes loses its s t r e n g t h and, in fact, will retain hardly any of the characteristics of leather. I t becomes hard, is easily broken, and often will drop in pieces. That using such damaged leather m a y endanger life at times w a s shown recentJy by a specimen sent to the Bureau of Chemistry. This specimen w a s a lineman's leather s a f e t y strap which, though nearly new, w a s broken almost in t w o as a result of burning. Such ajtraps are used by telephone and telegraph linemen as supports while working; in midair. Originally this particular strap had been strong e n o u g h to hold a t e a m of horses, but its strength bad been reduced t o less than that of a piece of ordinary string. It is probable that t h e strap was damaged when the wearer unwittingly leaned against a hot steam pipe. This example shows rather emphatically how important it is to t a k e good care of leather. Even in cases where no danger may result, it pays t o give leather good t r e a t m e n t A great many pairs of shoes are ruined w h e n the wearers put the wet soles against hot stoves or radiators or on the heater which feels so comfortable under the street car seat on rainy or slushy days. Frequently the burned spots will fall out and the shoe manufacturer gets the blame. Leather service m a y be increased by remembering the simple f a c t that w e t leather is more easily damaged by heat than dry leather. the necessary caution in placing them in the water. B y this method the mortality rate among trout fry is kept to the minimum. Close check is kept of the streams- and locations in which the fry are planted and this information is of inestimable value to the state. The scheme now operating in the planting of trout fry will be followed in the planting of every other species of fish and the same data on all will be kept. Besides insuring a lower mortality rate among planted fry, the new method also is much cheaper than the former method. However, the railroad fish car of the department will not be discontinued for the time being.

C. %m- - o a i T h e Children's B u r e a u has m a d e two studies in coal mining a r e a s , one in a bituminous and the other in an a n t h r a c i t e field. The purpose of these studies was to secure i n f o r m a t i o n a b o u t the welfare of children connected with the production of this g r e a t public utility. This m e a n s not only child w o r k e r s in the mines, but also the children of fathers whose lives are bound up in the mines. In a n u m b e r of ways the m o u n t a i n b i t u m i n o u s m i n i n g camp is like a f r o n t i e r s e t t l e m e n t . Many c a m p s are literally in the wilds. S o m e t i m e s houses are crowded close t o g e t h e r — but with as litlie sanitation as if the n e a r e s t n e i g h b o r w e r e a mile away. In some camps, the d r a i n a g e e m p t i e s into the valley s t r e a m a n d from this s t r e a m comes d r i n k i n g w a t e r . H o u s e s are usually c h e a p l y c o n s t r u c t e d a n d are soon in bad r e p a i r . A few c a m p s , on the o t h e r hand, have been well built, with a t t r a c t i v e houses, s a n i t a r y plumbing, paved streets, and p r e t t y g a r d e n plots. H e r e the c o m p a n i e s have acted on the principle t h a t a s t r o n g , cheerful r a c e of w o r k e r s can not g r o w up from ugly and i n s a n i t a r y conditions. T h e schools in the b i t u m i n o u s mining camps a r e often of the one room, one t e a c h e r - t y p e , offering only five or six e l e m e n t a r y g r a d e s . T h e t e r m s are s h o r t ; m a n y of the schools a r e poorly equipped, a n d m a n y of the t e a c h e r s are u n t r a i n e d . In c a m p s which the C h i l d r e n ' s B u r e a u s t u d i e d t w o - t h i r d s of the pupils in t h e schools were failing to m a k e normal p r o g r e s s for their ages. T h e C h i l d r e n ' s B u r e a u also studied an a n t h r a c i t e coal m i n i n g c e n t e r with a population of 25,000 people crowded into half a s q u a r e mile b e t w e e n hills. N e a r l y e v e r y foot of land was covered with houses. T h e r e w e r e m i n e s u n d e r n e a t h the t o w n , and where the coal had been t a k e n out the work ngs were not a l w a y s filled in to support the surface. One house a f t e r a n o t h e r was giving way as the i land caved in. The settling of t h e ' land had a d a m a g i n g effect on the ' sewers and t h e w a t e r supply. All of this obviously isn't good for children. ; Out of every t h o u s a n d babies burn in j this town one h u n d r e d eighty-seven I were dying in t h e i r first year. The i d e a t h rates from bronchitis and dipht h e r i a and c r o u p were three or four t i m e s as high as in the United Stateregistration a r e a as a whole. The scarlet fever rate was twelve times as high. Schools in this region for the most part were like the houses, small worn en buildings, f r e q u e n t l y in bad repair. They, too, wore u n d e r m i n e d , in more ways t h a n one. Half the boys I o to 15 years old had left school and gone to work in the mining i n d u s t r y . One-fourth of the girls of these aires were doing some kind of regularwork. Several factories had located in the town to utilize the labor of the m i n e r s ' wives and d a u g h t e r s . The lower the f a t h e r s ' earnings, the more children went to work at an early age. The state law said that children below the age of H> could not work in mines. As the law was being in t e r p r e t e d t h e y could work " a b o u t " mines in such places as the coal b r e a k e r s if t h e y had reached 11. But accidents happen in the b r e a k e r s aswell as u n d e r g r o u n d . They t o w e r a b o u t the t o w n s , g r e a t barnlike s t r u c - t u r e s filled with c h u t e s and sliding belts and c r u s h i n g and sorting machines. The coal is raised from the mine to the t o p of the b r e a k e r and after being c r u s h e d it is carried down along a moving belt or incline and the boys pick out the slate and rock as the coal rushes past t h e m . The black dust t h a t arises fills the air and the l u n g s of the w o r k e r s . U n d e r the recent Federal child labor laws the work of children, u n d e r 1G was, in effect, prohibited both in and a b o u t the mines, a n d t h e r e f o r e in the b r e a k - ers. B u t the s u p r e m e court has decided t h a t t h e Federal g o v e r n m e n t can not deal with child labor unless the Constitution is a m e n d e d . 11 ^ si | New Embroideries Offered | | in the Art Shops | s ® aHHHHEBBBBHHBBEailfflilillllllilllHSKB T h i s week we have a c h a r m i n g and the m a t e r i a l .

How to P u t Down E g g s Select a five-gallon e a r t h e n or stone crock which will hold a b o u t IB dozen eggs and clean it t h o r o u g h l y . Scald it a n d allow it to d r y . H e a t 10 to 12 q u a r t s of w a t e r to the boiling point and cool it. When cool, measu r e nine q u a r t s of w a t e r into the crock, add one q u a r t of sodium silicate (commonly called w a t e r g l a s s ) , which can be p u r c h a s e d a t most d r u g stores. Stir well to mix the solution thoroughly. T h e solution is now ready for the eggs, which m a y be put in all a t once or from time to t i m e as they a r e obt a i n e d . Before a n y eggs are p u t in the crock it should be set in a cool d r y place w h e r e it can r e m a i n u n d i s - t u r b e d . If a n y a t t e m p t is m a d e to move the j a r a f t e r it has eggs in it some of the e g g s m i g h t crack a n d spoil, affecting the entire crock. The solution should cover the eggs a t least two inches a t all times. If any of t h e solution e v a p o r a t e s more should be mixed in t h e same proportion and added. If the j a r is covered with a t i g h t lid or waxed p a p e r , very little •evaporation will occur. If w a t e r glass is not obtainable for [ p r e s e r v i n g eggs, lime solution may be 1 used. It is not considered so good as w a t e r glass, a s in some instances eggs preserved by this method have t a s t e d slightly of lime, a l t h o u g h a t [other times l i m e w a t e r has proved entirely satisfactory. ] To preserve with lime, dissolve ! two pounds of unslacked lime in a ! small q u a n t i t y of w a t e r and dilute I with five gallons of w a t e r t h a t h a s ' p r e v i o u s l y been boiled and cooled. Alow the m i x t u r e to stand until the ime settles, t h e n pour off and use he clear liquid. Place clean, fresh >ggs in a clean e a r t h e n w a r e crock or a r and pour t h e clear l i m e w a t e r into .he vessel until the eggs are covered. At least two inches of the solution should cover t h e top layer of e g g s . E g g s preserved in w a t e r glass or other solution should be rinsed with w a t e r and wiped dry before being opened, but e g g s should not be washed before being p u t into the preservative. If such e g g s a r e cooked in the shell, a small hole should be pricked in t h e l a r g e end before p u t - t i n g them into the hot w a t e r otherwise the shell is likely to crock, for the pores h a v e been sealed by t h e p r e s e r v i n g solution.
