The inevitable result of this forgeifulncss is a three-fold loss—loss of money paid for light not enjoyed; loss of eye comfort from strained vision. People are urged to give no less attention to the cleaning of their lamps than they devote to their furniture. A damp cloth applied daily will be profitable in three different ways.

Grace Koningen, a pure-bred Hoistein- Friesian cow bred and owned by the Montana State College of Agriculture ( is the new champion milk producer of £he world among cows 10 years old and over. According to the advanced registry department of the Holstein-Friesian Association u 1 America she produced in one year 32,294.4 pounds milk and 1,051. 'J pounds butter fat—equal to 1,314.8 pounds butter. As a result of this performance, she exceeds the former world's record made by Adirundac Wietske Dairy Maid, whose milk production is 31,580.y pounds. Her butter fat record is exceeded by only two other cows of her age—Anna Lenox Dei Kol 2d and Bonalevo Quality Walker Pietertje whose records are 1,094.07 and 1,,064.12 pounds, respectively. Feeds grown in Montana constituted this cow's entire tesa ration. During the first 45 days of her test the concentrates fed were barley, oats, bran and oil meal, together with 10 pounds (dry weight) of beet pulp soaked in molasses and water. About 15 pounds cured alfalfa hay were fed each day during the winter months. Green hay was fed with a small amount of dry hay during the summer. In addition she received from 60 to 70 pounds roots daily. At no time during her test was she "forced" by heavy feeding. She received never more than 24 pounds of grain a day and the average for the entire test period is around 20 pounds. Grace Koningen has freshened seven times. Six of her offsprings were bulls. As an individual she is an excellent example of the breed—possessing good size, desirable type and quality. When in good condition she weighs over 1,900 pounds. A n o t h e r H i g h H o l s t e i n R e c o r d Seventy-seven Holstein cows in the United States have completed yearly test periods with records over 1,000 pounds butter fat, according to the advanced registry department of the Holstein-'Friesian Association o f America. The latest of these is Crestmount Duchess Ormsby, owned in Ohio- At the age of five years this cow produced in 365 consecutive days under the supervision of the Ohio State College of Agriculture 1,017.42 pounds butter fat—equal to 1,271.7 pounds butter. A total of 52 Holstein cows in the United States have produced over 30,000 pounds milk in one year. The two highest milk records are held by the Washington cow, Segis Pietertje Prospect, whose best production for one year is 37,381.4 pounds, and the other, 35,550,4 pounds.

Better Feeding Pay* We are u: receipt ni a letter from Konald iVrnie, tester- of the Klgm Cow-Tenting Association, Klgm, Iowa. He sa> > that Minn- alfalfa hay is being purchased by the dairymen m his section ai a cost ranging from $:24.5(.1 to $2G a ton. "While the price of this roughage cuiru-s rather high," says Mr-, j'ennie, "it has actually reduced •fie total feed cost of the farmers who have used it." This is significant, in -ea.son and uut of season we have urged our readers to MIU alfalfa or some other legume that may suit their purpos.es better. Alfalfa will grow on almost every farm in Iowa, as we have often said, where the soil is not sour; if the soil is .sour theapplication of from two to three tons of Lmestone per- acre will put it in condition for alfalfa. Alfalfa will yield three tons per acre on good Iowa soil. How can a dairyman afford to pay $2»J a ton for hay that he can grow at the rate of three tons to the acre on his own farm'.' That alfalfa is worth $26 a ton as a feed for dairy cows is evident from the fact that some of the farmers who are members of the Elgin Cow- Testing Association are getting better results with this high-priced alfalfa than with the roughage formerly used. Another interesting matter, concerning which Mr. Pennie writes, has to do with washing the separator. In a large herd the morning milk was | run through a separator that had not | been thoroughly cleaned the night be- ' fore, that is, it had merely been rinsed with clean water the machine the skim milk showed .015 of one per cent , of fat. The separator was then thoroughly cleaned and the evening's milk was run through it. The skim milk in this case tested .01 of one per cent of fat. In other words, it contained only two-thirds as much fat as did that which had been run through the separator in the morning that had not been thoroughly washed. It was figured out that the loss of fat in the buttermilk from not thoroughly washing the separator for the morning skimming amounted to $4.45 a month. This suggests the importance of thoroughly cleaning the separator every time after it has ben used, not only for the sake of getting a higher quality of cream, but for the sake of saving every pound of butter fat possible. The Elgin Cow-Testing Association is only three months old, but already there has ben an increase in the amount of milk and fat produced by the cows belonging to the association, , due entirely to better feeding. l i ' - i e is a m e d l e y of f a m i l i a r s a y - i n g s -some w i t h variation^-- e a c h of w h i c h a p p l i e s t o f a r m a c c o u n t i n g a n d so t o t h e p r o b l e m of m a r k e t i r g f a r m p r o d u c t s i " r - V / u r e s d o n ' t " A e a l c u l a t ••Ko..---ghi s i g h ' .

The farmer wants to know whether his wheat pays, whether his cows pay, and whether his orchard pays, and yet he seldom has sufficiently accurate figures to answer such questions. Above all, he ought to know, and yet frequently does not know, if his farm as a whole is a paying proposition. Department, of Agriculture specialists do not claim that the systems of accounting for farms which they recommend will be absolutely exact. They are, nevertheless, sufficiently accurate for all ordinary requirements. The department does not furnish sets of books to farmers. The systems which it recommends require only such books as can be purchased of a stationer or dealer :r. books and school supplies. Practical working systems of accounts which anyone may adopt without special study are recommended. One of these is a direct-entry system original entries, which later would requiring no preliminary books no have to be posted or copied into permanent accounts. From two to ten minutes a day, investigation shows, is all the time recuired in keeping books, according to the simpler methods suggested by federal specialists. This does not include a day or two, possibly more, required at the end of the year to clo^e up the books and start a new set. It is recommended that the accounting year be started some time after the last crop is harvested in the fall and before the first crop operations are started in the spring. The beginning should be made on the first day of some month. To many the inventory required in effective farm accounting is a big bugaboo, but unnecessarily so. Many farmers k e e p careful accounts throughout the year, but fail to realize that they are of relatively little use, without the inventory in showing the year's income. As a matter of fact, the taking uf the inventory is not such a difficult task as many think and probably will not require more than four or five hours possibly only two hours. to complete. The mventury should be a detailed list of ail items of farm property and the value thereof, including the farm, the farm buildings, the horses, the cattle and other livestock, machinery, tools, feed, produce, supplies, cash on hand and in the bank, amounts due from other persons, and owed to other per.vjns, and the value of growing crops. The latter is calculated by adding the value of labor and materials already spent on those crops. The thing which the United States Department of Agriculture emphasizes is the urgent need of keeping some form of systematic accounts. The elaborateness of the records will depend upon what the farmer wants to know, and the time he has available for keeping accounts. The department will be glad to suggest a system which will enable him to figure his income tax and ascertain what his farm a-, a whule is making. It can also sURge.-'t a system which will enable him to determine approximate production costs on his farm. For others, particularly owners of very large farms, the Department of Agriculture is p.-epared to recommend a detailed cost accounting system which may vequire the services of a bookkeeper. For the men engaged in production on a large scale such a system will supply invaluable information. Every farmer is a buyer and a seller as well as a producer. He must know the condition of his business if he is to buy and sell successfully. It is for each farmer to decide how extensive a set of accounts he wants to keep. The fact about which he should have no doubt is the value and necessity of at least a simple accounting system. The old adages quoted above are considered very much in point by Farm Management officials. Figures, they say, do not lie regarding farming any more than regarding other subjects. A few minutes' daily calculation may save hours of needless toil, which is another way of saying "a stitch in time saves nine." Farm accounting gives the farmer a foresight which everybody recognizes as better than hindsight. Finally, it does pay to "count the cost," for farming by rule of thumb is destined to become obsolete.

A vet-y common misconception regarding the use of fertilizer in the hill on corn is that this method of application causes the roots to bunch around the area where the fertilizer was dropped, and tends to prevent the spreading of roots out away from the hill where the plant could obtain more plant food and moisture. A recent experiment by the Michigan Experiment Station refutes this theory, and shows t h a t ferilizing corn in he hill does not restrict root growth. The soil on which this experiment was conducted was a dark sandy loam. A 3-10-4 fertilizer was used at the rate of 200 pounds to the acre in the hill, as against -100 pounds broadcast. Professor Millar states; "The com fertilized in the hill made a mach more vigorous growth than t h a t on the broadcasted treatment." Two examinaions of the root systems were made at different periods. "No limitation in development or localization of feeding roots was evident. Hill fertilization advanced the maturity of plants." "The observations of some farmers that corn fertilized in the hill suffers more from drought is not due to a more limited root system. When such a condition prevails, the reason lies in a greater moisture requirement of the plants, due to greater vegetative growth." OUR POU PARTMENT South Manitou Isle Rosen Rye Center Fertilizers on Sugar Beets Increase Yield and Sugar Content - i " Few crops respond .¾) profitably to proper fertilizers as do sugar beets. •I. F. Cox and E. B. Hill of the Michigan Experiment Station, have the following to say in Special Bulletin K>f, on the subject of fertilizing the sugar beet crop in that State: "Under average Michigan soil conditions, sugar beets respond best to -nibstantial application of fertilizers high in phosphoric acid and potash. Growers report good results from the use of 300 to 500 pounds per acre of a complete fertilizer such as 2-12-2 of 2-10-4 or a like amount of acid phosphate. When this amount of fertilizer is used, it should ho applied broadcast when fitting the seed bed, or haiTowed in just before planting. When smaller applications, 100 to 125 pounds per acre, are made, the fertilizer should be applied in the row, usually with a special fertilizer attachment on the seeder. The common practice, which is a poor one, is to apply too little fertilizer of a low analysis for maximum returns per acre. "Barnyard manure is the most common fertilizer used on the farm today. It is very valuable in the production of a good crop. Barnyard manure, which has been applied the spring or fall of the year previous to r-1., vine- beds, gj , e-; ' )v ],rwL r-sults. -'i:;ri<r application of fresh manure w.niv-diatoly before planting is not ' r 'commended for se\eral r e a l m s : ' 1 ) The b-'st plant is not able to . make the best use of this manure, as it not immediately available. (2) Hwwy application < f fresh manure may cause short, prong;;, low yielding beets. (3) The spring topi dressing of fresh manure in many cases is al<o a top dressing of weed seeds. Thi- greatly increases the amount of labor necessary to care for the crop. Well rot.ed manure may profitably he applied in the spring. " M v i u r " should be supplemented w'th an application of acid phosphate, ;JS above recommended, or of fertilizer high in phosphorus. As the price if oota^h declines, its use may again !we oie more general. "On soils which are acid, sugar boit refuse lime at the rate of one to three tons per acre, or one to two tons of ground limestone applied in rotation, when fitting seed beds for corn or beets, will increase beet yields directly and markedly increase the yields- of clover and alfalfa following in rotation, thus providing a greater residue of organic matter and nitrogen, improving both the fertility and structure of the soil." South Manitou island in Lake |Michigan is the rye center of the j worid, in the opinion of crop specialist^ <• f the Michigan Agricultural Col- ,'••'-•.••. Farm'r< on the island have won , • lie h'-roys in rye in three of the last •four International Hay and lira'" '-hows, proving that, this island propi..,.,., th" Iw-t rye on the continent. swith Man.ton is an island of about .,i;i)0 acres, 12 miles from the main-, iar.d oil' the u\ st coast of Michigan. je<'.-. rai \ear.> ago the crop specialwt.> w.re s^ttsing a place where Rostn rye c >ul'l be isolated. This rye, a de- '.-«. a.pinent of the college, like all ryes wa- too frundly. If a bit of pollen i'i-oi.1 s. me rye of plebeian origin drifted over to a fi^ld of Rosen, the i\osen accepted it eagerly and cross pollination resulted, and the former high bred Rosen from that day on was only a grade. A place was need- * ri for the growing of Rosen rye and iiw-wn rye alone, so far away from othtr ryes that the strongest winds could not bear the pollen to it Prof. .1. E. Cox and his assistants of the M. A. C. farm crop department finally decided on the South Manitou island. On? n a s o n for this decision, Prof. Cox sa'd, was that four or five of the less than 12 farmers on the island were first class agriculturists. First class farming, Prof. Cox maintains, is a first consideration in the raising of seed of any kind. Apple Orchards Respond to Fertilizer "If an apple tree is not of value for fruit production it may be worth converting into tool handles, plane Mocks and other useful things," is the suggestion made in Farmers' Bulletin 1284, recently issued by the United States Department of Agriculture. There are. however, orchards which can b* profitably renovated by tillage, fertilizing, pruning, and insect and disease control. It is stated t h a t soil fertility is often a Limiting factor. Supplying the limiting element, usually nitrogen brings on increased wood growth and a greater fruit production. Suggestions are given on the kind of fertiliser, amount, and time and method of applying. Fertilizers for Sugar Beets Kxperiments here and abroad have shown that tbe sugsr content of : b e e t s which is the basis of purchase, ran he increased by planting on euit- [::bio soils and by u-irg .eed from carefully selected strains. Fertilizers especially those high in phosphoric acid and potash will increase the sugar content of beets grown on muck and peat lands. Loam soils are best for sugar beets and profitable fields depend chiefly on gett'ng a good stand, careful thinning and cultivation and the use of proper fertilizers. Stable manure is commonly used and is valuable in making a good crop, especially when applied the spring or fall previous to planting fee beets. It should, however, be reinforced with acid phosphate or supplemented by a fertilizer high in phosphorus for best results. vSix years ago the Agricultural College sent to South manitou enough rye to plant all the acreage devoted t'> t i n t grain on the island. Since th-n tri' on.' variety has been raised th-ie. F n i r y a r s ago Adolph Beck first showed the Rosen rye from the -l.nd at th'"1 Internationa! show. He won ,':r..-t, place.

H a t c h i n g D u c k E g g * H a s I n s a n d O u t * — B e C a r e f u l Duck raising is conducted successfully both as a side issue on general farms and as a special business on a large scale. The sale of these birds is not confined chiefly to the holiday season, like turkeys, but the demand is an all-theyear one. On a general farm they add variety, b o t h in meat and in eggs, to the farmer's table. Ducks lay their eggs early in the day, and should be c o n f i n e d to the house or pen until 9:30 or 10 o'clock in the morning. If allowed to roam early in the morning, they may lay in a pond or stream and eggs may be lost. The period of incubation for ducks' j eggs is 28 days, except for the Muscovy duck, which is 33 to 35 days. The < ggs may be hatched either naturally .or artificially, but on practically all of the large duck farms the hatching i is dc>ne m incubators. Strong, fertile ^'^^.^ are a prime essential in good hatching, and are obtained only from stock properly mated and kept under the best possible condition to -••ccure health and vigor, say United States Department of Agriculture specialists. Eggs from overfat breeding stock do not usually produce a large percentage of strong ducklings. Pekin and Indian Runner ducks rarely sit; consequently, if natural methods of incubation are to be used, the eggs are usually hatched under hens. Ducks' eggs should be washed if dirty. Washing does not appear to injure their hatching qualities. Before setting a hen dust her thoroughly with insect powder. In applying this powder hold the hen by the feet, with her head hanging down, and work it thoroughly into the feathers, giving special attention around the vent and under the wings. If several hens are sitting in the same room, confine them on the nests, allowing them to come ionly once a day for feed and water. Sitting hens should be fed whole or cracked grains, such as corn or wheat. Place 9 to 11 ducks' eggs under a hen, depending on her size and the season of the year, using the smaller number of eggs in cold weather and the larger number in warm weather. Confine the hens at hatching time and do not disturb them until the hatch is completed, unless they become restless when it may be best to remove the ducklings that hatched first. D u c k E f f « R e q u i r e M o i s t u r e Hens must be well cared for in hatching ducks' egz&, as the period of incubation is a week longer than that of hens' eggs. It usually takes ducklings from 24 to 48 hours to hatch after they pick the shells; therefore, it is advisable to allow the hen to get off the nest for feed and water when the first ducklings pick the shell and then confine her to the nest until the hatching is over. Ducks' et&z need more moisture than hens' c*K* at hatching time, as it takes the ducks much longer to get out of the shell. The eggs therefore, should be sprinkled with warm water previous to hatching. Incubators for hatching docks' eggs are usually kept at a slightly lower temperature than for hens' eggs. Keep the machine at 102 de- • grees F. for the first three weeks and 103 degrees F. for the last week. The temperature may go above 108 degrees F., and sometimes will go as high as 104 degrees F. at hatching time. Operate the machines according to the manufacturer's directions. [ Methods of Brooding ! Ducks are much easier to |brood artificially than chickens, but they may also be raised under hens successfully. If raised by the latter method, it is advisable to confine the hens and allow the ducklings free range, as the hens are apt to wander too far away with their broods. After the ducklings have been confined to the incubator for 24 to 36 hours after hatching, remove them to the brooder and give them their first feed. The brooder should be operated at a temperature of about 05 degres F. at first and gradually reduced to K0 degiees within a week or 10 days. The temperature may be .reduced quite rapidly, depending on the sea- ' son of the year. Aim to keep the ducklings comfortable. F e e d i n g Grit to P o u l t r y If we observe''fowls on the range, I we \v;ll note that they are constantly I picking up bits of different materials [which are often classified broadly as j"grit." We mu-'t remember that true grit (for grinding purposes only) is absolutely indigestible, and therefore constitutes a small part of a hen'? natural foraging. What she picks up i.s more likely in the nature of ash, or carbon, or lime, or charcoal. In cases of indigestion caused by pasty mashes lump'ng in the crop, grit helps great- •ly. Where much soft, sloppy food is fed to fowls they'will sometimes consume grit ravenously, because it helps i prevent the food from passing j through the system too rapidly. Extreme necessity for grit in cer- |tain cases would be somewhat relieved, however, by feeding more bulky food, such as bran, alfalfa, clover, etc. We have noticed that fowls usually consume less grit when there is a fresh supply of shell and charcoal If either one of the latter supply falls short, consumption of grit increases. The natural conclusion is that fowls need grit, not only for teeth, but also for the sake of putting something bulky in their crops, or because ( they seek certain mineral matter i which might add to their health or to 'composition of ef^ shells. Ducks and geese require much grit and the amount will depend largely upon their supply of grass and green stuff. It is so simple and inexpensive to keep a supply of good grit constantly before ore's fowls t h a t there is really no excuse for failing to do it If they nibble at the grit a bit and yet eat more of shells and charcoal, that is the normal condition. If they begin to consume suddenly large quantities of grit, it is one of the best possible signs of indigestion . , bowel disorders. Thus grit may be valuable feeding gauge. and a Russia |„to E t r Bnsinos. The Soviet government of Russia has gone into the egg business. A firm recently has been formed to export ozxs. The plan is to ship out 40 carloads the first year, 600 carloads the second, 800 carloads the third and 1,000 carloads during following years. It is stated that saver*] hundred ccrloads already have been exported. » : • • : ! r ^ / »1 MEMORIES OF LINCOLN AND MY CIVIL WAR SERVICE B y J A M E S H.

You Need Sidewall Protection Country Roads At the end of the pavement there are ruts and bumps that jab at the sidewall of your tires. If you are not getting the mileage you expect it is because the sidewalls cannot withstand these attacks. Put on Corduroy Cord Sidewall Protection Tires. Drive in ruts, car tracks, and alongside curbs. You get big mileage just the same. Ask your dealer to explain "SIDEWALL PROTECTION."

Children's Bureau Vt'ashiniglon, 1). (.. The Children's Bureau 1» glad to taiwcr 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. • ) Child Labor in Homes Children working at 5, 6 and 7 years of age and upward; children of these ages working late at night; working at occupations which strain the eyes and blister and callous the hands. Not in factories;—most state now have laws which would prevent that foi children under 14—but on factory work in homes. These were the conditions which the Children's Bureau found in three neighboring New England cities. One of the cities is the most important jewelry manufacturing center in the United States. Another is a center for the making of cotton small wares and knit goods and lace. Coming home from school with little playtime or with none at all, the children would go to work. Perhaps they carded glove- or dressfasteners or shoe buttons or jewelry, or they worked at stringing tags or separating bands of lace held together by some threads. Easy enough work it seems. But "you have to stay with it all the time or yon won't make anything," one worker said. With a whole family working together, the older members doing the harder parts of the work and the little children doing the easier parts, the average earnings of each person were about 3 cents an hour. To earn one-half a cent at carding fasteners it was necessary to place a gross of them in cards. Very few small children, even though working at top speed, could make more than a few cents an hour. The knobs of the fastener- or ".snaps" are put through holes in the cards and the tops are then snapped onto these knobs. The pressing down of the tops, hour after hour, is not easy for the tender thumbs of children. Fingers are cut on the threads which must be drawn from lace. Rosary beads are linked and wired with the aid of pliers, and the hands are left sore or calloused. In some homes machines had been installed and fingers were crushed or cut in using them. So till 10 or 11 or 12 o'clock at night the children work. Of course the smallest ones fall asleep at work before this time. "Mary often work • • • - # . on carding jewelry until very late at night but Agnes goes to sleep on them and we put her to bed," a mother commented. Four or five nighLs a week, September until Christmas, a seven-year old strung tags from half past five till nine—but "sometimes she fell asleep in her chair before nine," the report says. The gas light flickers overhead or a kerosene lamp supplies illumination. Many children .said they had to begin wearing glasses after starting work on tags or beads or snaps or setting stones in small pieces of jewelry. Sometimes the whole family rise again ar 5 o'clock to go on with the work. Stopping at the factory for more work on their way to school the children are likely to be tardy, and it is little wonder t h a t teachers say they come to school worn out and listless. It is also little wonder that many of them are below their normal grades. But in addition to the evils from which the children suffered, a possible danger to the public health was found in the fact that many families worked at home on these products during times when some of their members were ill with communicable disease. In the families studied at least \i> cases of tuberculosis were reported. One mother said her children carded and packed jewelry all the time they were ill with measles. Children who were kept out of schoo because they had whooping cough did tag-stringing and thread drawing on lace. Among other diseases which the home-working families reported were pneumonia, typhoid fever, tonsilitis, influenza, mumps and diphtheria. The experience of Massachusetts and New York in licensing tenementhouse work and inspecting it indicates that mere regulation is not enough. To protect the children and the public health complete prohibition is necessary. In the State where this Children's Bureau study was made no regulation of any kind existed. Yet a large majority of the manufacturers who gave out home work said that prohibition of the practice would not harm their business since they all would be on the same basis. Clean From the Top Down Many persons do not know all of the fine points about cleaning a room. A little system, which means cleaning a room according to a definite plan, will save labor because the different steps in the process will not need to be repeated. When rooms near together are to be cleaned on the same day, it is often easiest to get all of them ready, then clean them all, and finally put them all in order. Sweeping and dusting should be made as dustless as possible, for the object is to remove dust, not to scatter it, the United States Department of Agriculture points out. In sweeping, the strokes should be firm and even and taken in such a way that the broom or brush is kept on the floor most of the time and not flirted through the air. The dust cloth should be held in a fairly compact mass, so that the surface to be cleaned is wiped or polished and at the same time the dust is held by the cloth. Small pictures and bric-a-brac should be dusted and removed from the room or placed in a pile and covered. Draperies and portieres should be taken down or pinned up. Furniture, mirrors, and pictures should be dusted and covered with cloths. Radiators or registers should be cleaned. Each register should be lifted out, placed on a newspaper, and dusted thoroughly with a brush and an oiled cloth. The hot-air pipe should be brushed and the screen cleaned. The opening should be covered with newspaper and the register placed over it to prevent dust from dropping down. The grate, the stove, or the fireplace should be cleaned. The walls and ceiling and the baseboards should be brushed and dusted. The floor and floor coverings should be cleared according to the kind. While the dust is settling, spots should be removed from the woodwork and the windows washed if necessary. The covers may then be removed from the pictures and furniture, and should be shaken out of doors if possible. Then the room and furniture should be dusted thoroughly, beginning at the top of the room and working down. When a room is cleaned with a vacuum cleaner, the order of proceeding is different. The room is first dusted, then the vacuum cleaner is used on upholstery, hangings, walls, and carpets or rugs, and finally the floor is dusted. By this method of cleaning fewer articles need to be moved, no dust is scattered, and more dirt is actually removed. A vacuum cleaner, therefore, saves labor, even though with some types part of the work is harder than sweeping.

Selecting a Boy Mr. Hall, the grocer, advertised for a boy to work in his store, So many applied that he hardly knew which one to choose. He finally decided to choose the two that were the best educated, and the one that worked the best he would keep. The next day he told Harry Banks and Frank Rogers to come and work. Harry, the smarter of the two boys, was always trying to boss everyone around him. Harry was a city boy and did not realize what work was because he had never done a hard day's work be for Frank was a .. boy and he always worked hi i on the farm. The day following, Frank asked his father if he could go to the city and work. His father told him he could go. Then Frank went into the house, packed his traveling bag, and left for the station. When Frank arrived at Mr. Hall's, he greeted him kindly and set to work unpacking supplies at the store. Harry Banks came in and asked Frank what he was doing. Frank told him to leave him alone and mind his business. Harry said, "You could not make me -tay out of h e r e ! " Frank .lumped up, took Harry by the collar, and said, "Get out of here and don't bother me again." Mr. Hall, listening through the open door, heard what they said. He came out, handed Harry a one dollar bill and said, "I can get along better without you." Harry went out of the door with tears in his eyes. From then on Frank got along fine with Mr. Hall as long as he worked for him. Norma Herkelrath.

Dear Uncle E r n e s t : I have never written to you before, but I thought I would and see if I could get a present. I am a boy of ten, and go to school every day. I do the chores before I go to school, and alse do them at night so father won't have to do them as he works hard. Here is a little poem: When Father Was a Boy It seems to be Dad's greatest joy T*> tell what he did when he was a boy. Nothing so smart that I can see— But it's kinda rough on boyi like me! For when I work hard all day, And boys get tired—don't care what they say, To have Dad brag in his evening chat, "When I was a boy, I dW better than that!" Our free western life has developed a particular type of architecture adaptable to the small bungalow, the cottage and the more pretentious home. Characteristic of this type is the wide overhang of the roof which slopes at an angle greater than forty-five degrees. The general treatment is simple and angular, per'n'tting the most economical confirst cost. In the Morgan Park we have an inexpensive, compact arrangement which has been tried out and found satisfactory in the residential suburbs of Duluth. It is equally -¾ fitting design for warm sections of the country. From the large front porch we enter the hall through a vestibule. The stair is enclosed in a partition, a window furnishes light to the first landing, where we find a commodious coat closet. From the hall <* door leads back to the kitchen and to the cellar stairs. The living room is nearly square with a novel corner fireplace of handsome brick design. The dining room is sufficiently large to allow for ease in serving around an extended dining table. Good light in the kitchen over the sink, work table and cabinet cupboard is furnished by two wide windows. There is a large well c j - f i . F1BST FLOOR. PLAN lighted pantry and a back entry where the refrigerator may be placed. Upstairs we have one unusually large front bed room which has two closets. The baek bed room also has a good closet. There is a roomy bath and splendid linen closet Many houses of this type are made entirely fire-safe and cheaper to maintain by a roof of concrete SECOND FLOOR pi A,K tile or cement asbestos shingles. This type of roof also adds materially to the appearance of the house. Portland cement stucco in an attractive color or rough surface texture farther reduces the upkeep costs by eliminating paintinf bills, while t h e concrete masonry construction of ths> walls provides the necessary low struction, but giving as a unit a pleasing effect. : < *. •• - - f c wi' ~#> P ^ NEIGHBORING NEWS s o r n : I .

To the distressed young wife this brave man of affairs seemed truly a friend in need. She had no hesitancy in accepting his kind offer. After his departure, the darkness, the stillness, the oppression of unknown things doubled their intensity. Despite her loneliness Rachel went back to her duties wtth a lighter heart. With Forbes out of the way there coald be nothing more to fear. The wind rose in boisterous growls as the evening advanced. Now and again great drops of water dashed against the windows. The air became suddenly cooled so that Ra- "Now, sis, advised the boy, what. ever you do, keep a stiff upper lip and never say die. By the way, what time shall I come for you, girlie?" "No time, Jack," ihe explained "Mr. Woodrow will drive over after me." 'So that's arranged, eh?" The lad's eyes twinkled. 'Well, old Tom is mighty accommodating. I should insist on coming myself only I hate to leave the mill. I might lo3e my job, which—" "Not for the world, Jack," she protested. "I shall get on all right with Mr. Woodrow.' 'Sure you will. It was awful cheJ had recourse to a fire. She got good of him to step in as he did and out her bible and sought comforting settle old Forbes hash. That scounpassages from its pages.

She had never felt I the road, whistling ankee Doodle in the necessity of joining any church organization although she held certain decided views which were a prominent impress of her character. She firmly believed in an overruling providence yet did not acknowledge the church-made God of her fathers. Sometimes she prayed—not the loud prayer of the self righteous, but the silent inner acknowledgement of a superior power to which she looked for help and guidance in her hours of trouble. Once the Logtown pastor had said a merry mood. The moment he was beyond sight of Rachel his mood changed. A cloud touched his face, while his whole mien bordered on the dejected. He had much to trouble him of which his sister knew nothing. There was Evelyn for instance— she and that beastly Canuck captain! The lattea1 was far too much in evidence to please the boy. to town, Rachel lifted hoc head, drawing her veil more closely. She had no desire te be seen and remarked about by unsympathetic people. Bending toward his companion Woodrow asked: 'Shall you go first to a hotel to rest and prepare for this meeting?" "Surely not. Take me direct to the camp." The marshal wheeled down a side street, making off toward the high ground on which Camp Wilcox was located. They met tew people, Rachel sat a marble imagej scarcely breathing. Presently the long stockage came to view with a sentry before the entrance who halted the outfit. A nearby group of officers were consulting. An air of unrest seemed hovering over the place. "We are here to see one of the men," said Woodrow. The sentry scanned the marshal's companion keenly. Women came sometimes to camp, bat none like this one, so fair and apparently frail. A sweetheart of course thought the guard. "Have you a pass?" * Oh that's all right," cried Woodrow. "I am provost marshal and have free entry here at all times. Here comes Captain Ranger; he will understand." The speaker had approached the guard. Rachel still sat as Captain Rolfe Ranger came near. The marshal saluted respectfully. The Canuck captain seemed to suddenly congeal when he saw who was the occupant of the carriage. "We are here to speak with Mr Clang," said Woodrow. "His wife—" ''Ahem. Most unfortunate, broke in the captain. "Didn't you come "By George!" sighing deeply, "if jthrough town, Tom? Ev goes back on me 111 never put my faith in a girl again." This was a real trouble, a personal one at in her hearing that God was mocked .that Then there was that talk with by the prayers of those who never Indian Pete in whien he avowed his thought of Him only when deep fear • intention to aid the conscript to es» possessed their hearts. To fly to the cape from the pen. The boy had Almighty when deadly peris' menaced only to forget Him when all danger was past and peaceful hours ^ a d come, was a shame in the sight of heaven. To this opinion Rachel did not subscribe. If God was like unto a father who pitieth His children why should mortal man be forever badgering Him with petitions for this and that? An earthly parent would certainly frown upon such a child. When, however, the time of danger came how natural nnd right it was for the child to fly to fathei/ tor protection). All of which was respectfully submitted to her own soul giving abundant satisfaction. The storm soon fell in awful fury. The wind twisted off trees, tore ghastly swaths in the forest, wrecking many pioneer homes. Fortunately for Rachel the couise of the tornado went aside from her log house simply tearing down the stable and felling trees all about, obstructing roads and endangering lifd. The dawn of Sunday revealed a wide stretch of desolation. Jack came over, fearing calamity to his sister. He reported the roads badly encumbered with fallen trees. The storm had swept by in a single night and the next day was one of sunshine and peaceful quiet. Axes were this last in mind the next morning at the mill when a man came to him and asked: "Heard the news, Jack?" "No. What is it, Sam?" "A dozen conscripts escaped from the pen up to town last night and one of 'em shot the guard dead! There's big excitement I tell you!" CHAPTER XVII A Wife's Despair Marshal Woodrow was at the home of the Clangs bright and early Monday morning. He was more than ever interested in pleasing Rachel. Had he refused to interest himself in behalf of her husband a bad impression would have been left on the |try. "or me, I "say better line up the wYl0\B caboodle and shoot 'em first going off. 'Twould serve 'em right They're always in a broil; won't "No—" "Then you have not heard?" 'Heard what?" demanded Woodrow brusquely. "I am sure-—" "About the emute last night?" "Have heard nothing I assure you captain." 'Come this way, please,' The officer plucked at the other's sleeve, leading him aside. "Now what in nature does all this mysterious mouthing and scowling mean, Captain Ranger?" demanded Woodrow with manifest impatience. The sentry stood before the team )ready to prevent their! making a dash in case of a fright. Rachel clutched the reins, turning her head to watch the two men. "What is it?" she inquired of the sentry, her heart going at increased speed. There was portent in the air of something wrong. "It's just a little outbreak among the d— conscripts," grunted the sen woman's mind. To conciliate her in every possible way had been his aim. Rachel was ready and waiting for her promised escort. This morning she would see Thornton once more. The words she would utter on greeting him had been conned a hundred times; even in her sleep she had talked and wept with the man of her heart's choice. It was so good of Woodrow, stern official of the government that he was, to interest himself in her behalf. His long and disinterested friendship was counting to some purpose.

"I trust I haven't kept you waiting," said he with a quick low laugh. "Not long," she returned, her heart swelling. He sprang down and assisted her to a seat, placing Thornton, Jr., in her arms. They were soon whirled down the forest ' road behind r spanking pair of bay.i The boy was good as usual and found an affectionate welcome at the home "I am glad to hear you say that, j of the friendly neighbor heretofore for I fear some of the fellows outside might try to aid him in something of that sort—Indian Pete for one." "What set vou thinkfng Hke that, Jack?" The boy explained. Rachel appeared vexed, yet not uneasy. "I'd life! to see my husband acj r'..-ntioncd.

A man who- would treat a woman aa had Clang was nast for her mate. This was the paramount thought in Woodrow1* brain. It was lucky for all concerned that the hand of a strong government had been laid at last on the recreant husband It was not likely that he would ever return. Rachel was destined soon to be t widow in fact as well as in name These thoughts served to dote the marshal's lips to that ride was mostly a silent one. Across the bridge at Logtown, Up the torn toward Wingdam sped the carriage and occupants. Presently the long grade leading int* the ctty was reached. The air, which had been raw at tht wtth their approach make no kind of soldiers. Better let us take 'em out fur targets. Blamed Copperhead sneaks, the hull on 'em.'1 "He did not know. He saw the color fade from his auditor's cheek and then a wild suspicion clutched his brain. "By grout," he apologized, "I hope none o' youm's among 'em, lady.' 'Tell me what has happened,' she demanded in an awed voice. "Why, it's this way; there was an outbreak last night among them devils in the pen. Half a dozen made a break.

"Clang did you say? Was he—" "He was the ringleader, mum. 'Twas him that shot an' killed poor Tim!" A low moan from the carriage attracted Woodrow, who sprang thither to find M n | Clang fallen back in a dead faint When the woman again opened her eyes she found herself lying on a broad lounge in the parlor of Wingdam's best hotel whither the marshal had hastily conveyed her. A strange face bent above her. 'There, my dear, you are bettei now," paid the physician. "Don't worry; you are worth ten dead women y e t " Was she? The thought and query flashed! like lightning through her brain. Misery and death! The latter must soon come. She did not care to live—Thornton a fugitive from justice, a murderer now as well as a deserter! The shame of it was too much for one fond heart Rachel closed her eyes and fell into another swoon. All the remainder of that awful day she was in the hands of the doctor. He even wondered if it would not be better to let her die.. That would be nature's way to heal the wounds inflicted by a recreant husband. However much the poor woman craved oblivion that poor boon was denied her. She came fully to her senses in the afternoon and smiled Into the face of Jack. "Coming out all right aren't'you, sis?" cried the boy whose face was the picture of deepest anxiety. "Yes, Jack, I am better. Take me home won't you?" feebly articulated the young wife, bar whole frame •haken with emotion. T U do it, ait," assured the boy, "just aa toon aa yon can ride." " I tan ride now, Jack." Rachel pipped her feet to the floor and stood upright She felt weak and dizzy, yet tried not to show i t Jack supported her to the window, brom me street a blare of music swept upward as a company of soldiers parsed. The street w&i lined with spectators, cheers and shouts ruui g along the line of march The conscript's wife shuddered, covering her face with both hands. She fell to weeping bitterly. The music and the marching men brought it all back—Thornton f acknowledgement of his duty and his consent to serve the flag. Now all that was changed Jack held fast to his sister's trim waist and let her sob out her misery He knew she would feel better afterward. With the last faint blare of the music Rachel lifted her head and faced the situation. "I am ready to go now, Jack," she said simply. The boy kiBsed her pale cheek and led her back to the couch. 'Don't cry any more Rachie," said he as he paused on going o u t "1 shan't be long gone. There may be some mistake anyhow. Blame it all I can't see—" He checked himself suddenly and slipped away. Twenty minutes later the boy and his sister were on the sandy road going in the direction of Logtown. What a sad day it had been. Jack had dropped his work the moment he heard the news of the outbreak among the conscripts. He was glad it had not developed upon him to break the news of Thornton Clag's latest villainy to his wife. The boy was justly indignant as well as grieved over this last and worst act of criminality on the part of his brother-in-law. It was barely possible that there had been a mistake !in p a r t However, if Thornton had jnot fired the fatal shot, he had broken away from camp, and was that • despicable thing a deserter! All the old feeling of shame and anger was with the boy again. He bad never quite forgiven Thornton for his treason to the old flag—this last alienated the last drop of brotherly feeling. Never again could the boy bring himself to think of this man with an atom of respect. The ride was a silent one. Neither occupant of the buckboard was in a mood for conversation. Jack plied the whip vigorously at times and the swift flight of the vehicle threatened a catastrophe. Rachel did not mind this. She would have welcomed death against a tree or roadside stone, such was her bitter hopelessness during the first hours of her great sorrow Jack felt hopeful of one thing. This last act ofj Clang's placed him beyond the pale of forgiveness. He could never again come into the life of the woman he had so bitterly wronged. Doubtless it were better so. Jack resolved to stand by Rachel, to comfort and protect her through all the coming years, and when Evelyn Burridge came to share his home his sister should be welcome there as long as her life lasted. All of this was in the boy's mind. At Jack's age we dream dreams and build gilded castles. Nothing of the future held happiness for the boy without the lumberman's daughter had a part in it. "I shall stop with you tonight," said Jack as they neared the home on Hemlock Run. "You may lose your job at the mill if you do, Jack," sighed Rachel. "Lose it is then," was his quick rejoinder. She did not remonstrate. It would be a long time she imagined before she should care what happened to her or to any of her friends. The bolt had fallen, the last great shock that meant annihilation to nil her earthly hopes. What happened after this day was as nought. Jack stabled the animals in the ruined shed, then went in to Rachel. Very little conversation passed between brother and sister. Jack got the supper, whistling cheerily meantime. The sorrows of youth si* lightly. Jack did not underrate Rachel's grief, yet he was not ready to commiserate with her over the disgraceful act of a man like Thornton Clang who. Jack believed, was never half good enough for Rachel Perkins. And Rachel? The reader can wel. imagine her feelings. While Thorn ton was a free man, although Hiding from the provost marshal, she diH rot quite despair. He had been so good to her. Ah! there was the rub. Thornton Clang had been an ideal husband till this wicked draft came to disturb the serenity of his lif*. Every night he -sainted his wife or. his return from work with a kiss; it was the same at parting in the morning. After small Thornton came 'he husband had a double duty to perform. He did not stint his marks of affection although they were thereafter divided. They were getting on, too. Thornton's salary had been raited and there was a half promise of a partnership in the htm* bar business in the near future Then came the crash. A narrow strip of white paper bearing a name drawn from a hat changed everything! (To be continued) Use Cuticura Soap And Ointment To Heal Sore Hands WEEK OF MAY 11 For the week beginning May 11 we believe the state of Michigan will experience regulation summer weather —mostly pleasant but with scattered showers and thunder storms. Generally pleasant weather may be expected during first half of week, with possible exception of Monday, about which time there may be a reaction to wind and rain. The threatening weather of first part of week wUl soon disappear. Temperatures will begin to mount higher, reaching a temporary climax around Thursday. There will also be reports from other parts of the country telling of high temperature marks for this tima of year. There win be but little rain of a general character during last half of this week due to the general atmospheric conditions and moderately high barometer for the time. Local thunder storms and showers are probable around Thursday and Friday, but aside from this we are not expecting much stormine8s for the week as a whole in Michigan. Temperatures will continue steady to rising during most all the week and until about the middle part of next week. After this period the temperature tide will change and with one exception, near the end of the month, temperatures will show a falling tendency until early part of June. Temperatures during June will be variable. True to our March forecast for Michigan in January, the state experienced precipitation below the normal. After the middle of the month the sunshine melted a great deal of that in southern half of state, leaving ground bare and subject to alternate thrawing and freezing. Just as we warned, however, the early break-up was followed by a return engagement of King Winter during the opening days of April. The big drop in cotton prices during the latter part of March and our February prediction of rainy weather over western southern states during March may seem a far cry to those not initiated. However, it was the wet weather which delayed cotton planting operations considerably beyond the seasonal period. This was one of the things to make the price bullish, but just as soon as a few good days came along, the bottom dropped out These forecasts can be used for getting general run of prices for any growing crop, as the weather has much to do with supply and demand. We must again caution the reader*, however, that stamps must be enclosed in their letters, as questions not of general interest cannot be pablished. -o- W h o U the Infringer? In the Canadian West small business men often try to end prestige to their establishments by affixing to their firm names the initials of one of the big railways. One often sees such signs as "C. P. R. Tobacco Store," "G. T. P. Poolroom," "C. N. R. Boarding House/ etc. The Canadian Pacific recently took official notice of these acts of piracy, and aent out notification that the unauthorized use of the railways name was illegal. One such notice, sent to the proprietor of a certain "C. P. R. Bar ber Shop—Cut Rates," brought the following reply: "Deer Sur: I got yure notis.

Children's Bureau Washington, D. C. The C h i l d r W i Bureau is glad to answer requests for information on welfare of children. A list of the bureau'* publications on this subject will be sent to any reader »<!• dressing the Chief of Children's Bureau, U. S. Department of Labor, Washington, D. C> T H E " B A D " BOY OR GIRL Newspapers are filled with accounts of crimes, of the search for criminals, of long-drawn-out, expensive trials. Do readers of these accounts ever stop to wonder how criminal careers begin or whether they •light be prevented? What of the boy or girl arrested for the first time? Is. he thoroughly " b a d ? " Must he become the criminal of tomorrow? A few years ago the answer to these questions might have been yes. Today the juvenile court movement is witness Jto society's belief that the child delinquent may be saved. Instead of labeling the boy or girl before the court as bad and then meting out his punishment, the juvenile- court judge attempts to find out why the child is bad and then remove the cause. For instance, tests indicate that a large proportion of the children brought before juvenile courts are mentally defective. Such children need special care and training either in an institution or in special classes of the public schools. They are influenced easily for good or for bad; the community ought, for its own sake and for the sake of the child, to see that the influence is good. In other cases the reasons for delinquency are to be found in the home background of the child. Forty per cent of ten thousand children in seven juvenile courts were found by the Children's Bureau to come from broken homes, in which death, desertion, divorce or separation of the parents had disrupted the family. The children were the sufferers. Unhappy, neglected, perhaps suffering actual privation, they drifted perilously near the borderline of crime. For many of these children " mothers' pensions," enabling t h e mother to keep her home intact in spite of the absence of the natural breadwinner, might be the ounce of prevention that would save pounds of misery and social waste. Lack of understanding and sympathy at home may explain the stubborn child who feels himself alone in the world and, like a little pirate craft, defies the standards of the group. Erratic and inconsistent treatment at home, based on the whim and caprice of father or mother is reflected in the sullen and unruly child who neither understands discipline nor respects law. The untruthful child may be imitating the morals he has observed practiced, rather than those he hears preached. The child who steals may do so because hia parents have low standards, because of a love of adventure, because his " g a n g " does BO, or perhaps because he is hungry or cold. The truant may be the victim of bad adjustment at school. In all these cases the task of the juvenile court is to study the family, home, and school, to help parents and teachers to understand the child, and to provide a safe outlet for the energies which have flowed through destructive channels. Love of adventure, to take one example, may be harnessed to give us the explorer, the inventor, the pioneer, instead of the thief or the wanderer. The gang spirit may, if properly directed, give us boy and girl scouts; baseball games may use constructively the energy which threatens to tear down; a sympathetic "big brother" or big sister may melt the stubborn heart of the child to whom the world has seemed full of enemies and injustice. To make our juvenile courts serve their end—which is saving, not punishing, the child—the community must see t h a t the court has enough money to provide experienced and sympathetic probation officers and social workers; that there is a good clinic connected with the court where the child's physical and mental defects may be studied and remedied; with the child informally and indithat the law permits the judge to deal patrol wagon, the formal atmosphere vidually. The policeman's club, the of the adult court, have no place in dealing with children. The delinquent child is a sick child. The business of the children's court is to see that he is made well, morally, socially and perhaps even physically. Wisdom, patience and loce are the weapons which must replace the big stick. Two questions for you and your community: Have we a juvenile court? Is it properly equipped to save children? had killed the cat, and we all felt so bad. Yours truly, Nora Schlappi.

M **.Vv. \ ( 4 it ' I ' r •; it ! • : • # - * : ^ m The Future of the Ayrshire in America By C. L. Barli&gham The Ayrshire is equipped for profit making. She makes a maximum return for the feed she consumes and her quality product is marketable at top prices. These two characteristic*, economy of production and a four per cent milk favored in any market, guarantee the breed a continued and increased popularity on the American dairy farm. These are new days agriculturally. Marquart entered his modest farm herd of Ayrshires m the Northeast Dod^c- County Cow Testing Association. He fed and cared for them in J. way which is not beyond easy possibility on any Michigan farm and •v.-jnth by month throughout the year harried why his herd had for years 'n»n netting him goodly profits. His were the only Ayrshires in the Association arid their average return for thj year of 9,520 pounds of milk, shire the title, "premier milk cow." it to a foivnula t h a t the average She is coming to be known as "the farmer can apply?" Dr. Larson remost economical producer of the pled, "No good at all; but practicalhighest quality of milk." So great u ly all the information that the farmer the demand for this product by has now is baaed on these very inveadairies in the whole milk district and tigations." so many Ayrshires have been pur- i £>r Larson then offered two very jhased by these dairies t h a t the elementary examples of scientific inicarcest dairy animal in the country vestigation which led to practical ap- I "'.'il*-H-.->. Si^^''!:- Reuben Marquart, "Chief Dairy m m , " takes a hand in Ayrshire affairs on the farm. He keeps a n :ra hold on the source of the four per cent milk which sires htm his sturdiness and his "1 am pleased with the world" smile. Celt* Pender, on the other end of the rope, made 7,367 pounds of milk, 324.2 pounds of fat, and had two daughters, the leader of the herd, and C d;n Pender McAlister, whose production for the year was 10,467 pounds milk, 453.8 fat. Farmers are interested in economics —they have learned that it is the net return which counts and t h a t in such times as these the old careless, happy-go-lucky system does not yield profits. That is the reason for the great demand for the dairy cowwhere grain farming has previously been.followed and in the older, well- 433.15 pounds of fat, exceeded that of any other herd. But this was of less importance to Mr. Marquart than the economy with which they made this production—that was what measured his profit. When the supervisor's figures for the year were complete ih-y showed that for each $1.00 worth of feed consumed these Ayr- Clinton R. Stinson, Spencer, N. Y., seven year old, and his Champion Boys' and Girls' Club Ayrshire He for, Craigie Burn Spicy. established dairy districts this necessity for economical practices is leading to the culling of herds to eliminate the- wasters and select the cows which give the best accounting i'or their food. It leoda to the keeping of records. Record keeping helps the Ayrshire. She has no fear of not making good when bcr owner knows the facts. Developed in Scotland where frugality and hardiness were prime requisite; and owned thus far in this country chiefly in New England and New York where rations are not too libera*, and where economy of production is of great importance, the breed has been selected for many generations for the very qualities needed to best fill the present and future requirements of the American dairy farm. Over in Wisconsin last year Edwin *h res had returned $3.57. They made butterfat for a feed coat of 11."' cents and four per cent milk fnr 50.1 coins per 100 pounds. our per cent milk fills any marrequiremonts. In the Eastern V.nt'-'s it ha- earned for the Avrv ;oday is the Ayrshire grade. Within i month carloads have been purchased as far west as Ohio and as far lorth as Canadu for Long Island Certified Dairies and prices up to 3250 have been paid. No deductions ire made in any market because Ayrshire milk falls short in fat. On the jther hand, it is produced in large .>nough quantities that the breed .•ompares favorably with any other A-here whole milk is sold to condenseries and cheese factories. In creamiry districts the cream from Ayrshire milk brings as great returns as with any other breed and the other lualities of the Red and Whites give hem favor with creamery patrons hroughoui the country. Some of these qualities important n cb'.osing a breed and in guuging a jreed's future, alter the ability to nake a high quality product at low- •n feed i.'ij.st '3 curi-.itk-red, may well :x> given attention. The Ayrshire iks demonstrated her superiority in lairy conformation. Inter-breed con- .ests the world over have found Red ir.d Whiter ip th.1 lead; at small qcm- ••'•litiDTis, the. London Dairy Show, ind the National Dairy Exposition. rir.s type is iransmitte i uniformly to ift'spriji.^. A farmer using1 an Vshyre bul1 on a mixed herd i.-: assured of great improvement in type and production in the grades resulting. The breed is hardy and long lived, and able to give a good accounting for itself even under unfavorable conditions though of course maximum returns are obtained only with liberal feeding and good care. Ayrshires are prolific and the calves are raised easily. This fact gives a real basis for the breed slogan, "Buy one, you'll soon have a herd." That this breed which has had no promotion but has gone forward solely on its production merits is rapidly increasing in popularity is well shown by the records of the past few years. As evidence that the present gives good promise of a bright future for the breed, the fol- 'owing additional facts are submitted : The Ayrshire Breeders' Association, the national record organization for the breed, completed in 1923 the beat year in its history, registering more males than in any previous year and 15.2 per cent more females than in 1922, transferring 23.4 per cent more animals than in 1922 and issuing 25 per cent more memberships. February, 1923, is the twentysixth consecutive month in which the business of each month, a direct measure of the breed's activity, exceeded that of the corresponding month of the previous year. The largest number of cows have been on test during the past two years that have ever been entered in the Ayrshire Advance Registry and the average production exceeds that of all previous years. The greatest array, in numbers and yaaiity, of Ayrshires that has ever been brought before the dairy farmers of America was t h a t seen on last -'nil's show circuit. From coast to joast full classes of superior rcpre- -.ontatives of the breed were shown *nding at the National Dairy Show with the best exhibit of Ayrshires yet seen in America.

" W e worked in the laboratories on the deterioration of butterfat," he said. "There were some very scientific men engaged in those investigations, and while they knew little about the da ry business they found how butterfat deteriorates and he cause of it. Now of course, that is no use to the farmer; but during the course of those studies they devised a new method of making butter which wa> never known before. They tried it out on a large scale in making butter for the Navy, and it was successful there. They made a product that will keep a long time. Three yean ago one of the largest butter manufacturers in the country said, 'Oh that is baby play, that is no good ir this industry.' Today that same in- ! dividual is starting five b g factories ! in. this country to make that produce "Wi".hin the past week," continued Dr. Larson, "a manager of the Minnesota Co-operative Creameries Association came to my office and sa c that wis one of the greatest discoveries in the dairy field at the present time. II•' said, 'We are going to make 50,001),000 pounds of that butter this year. I have just come from New York City, where I have succeeded in getting that class of butter listed on the New York market as a spec'al class of butter.' That shows tr.e result of scientific research, and it shows that we are successful in developing practical methods." Another thing the scientists of the department have been working on Dr. Larson explained, is a study of the eyes of Swiss cheese, to try to find out what causes them. These men in the department laboratories discovered how to put into milk the organisms that will produce those eyes. The largest manufacturer of cheese said he was not interested when that was worked out. But a product was made in this way in the factory at Grove City, Pa., which is under direction of the department, and then assistance was offered in two other states in the manufacture of this product by the methods worked out by the Dairy Division. "During the past week," said Dr. Larson, "the largest buyer of cheese came to my office and said that in making his product he had to have the cheese made in that way, because that was the finest cheese made in this country; and he bought practically the entire output of the territory where our men were working. And more than that, he has employed our men in charge of the work in the field to work for him, beginning the first of January. He has also approached our second man in charge. Of course, it is too bad to lose men that way, but from the standpoint of the industry the work is going on just the same, only somebody else is doing it. Now there a^e two examples," he stated, "of ultimately making practical use of scientific investigation projects which in the early -tages of their development appeared to the average outsider to be wholly useless. The same is true in other lines." o _ Michig an Jersey Cow Exceed* State Record Oxford Daisy's Gold Crown 462703, a splendid young Jersey, has qualified as the Michigan Junior four- /ear-old champion, and on the same .est won Gold and Silver medals.

Production last year was 20,400,000 hort tons. The previous high record .vas 21,000,000 short tons in 1913-14. A considerable shift in sources of production has taken place since prewar years, the department says in oo.nting out t h a t the forecast 1923- -4 production is 71 per cent sugar and 19 per cent beet sugar, whereas in 1913-14 nearly 50 per cent of the total supply was beet sugar of which more than 90 per cent was of European origin. During and following the war cane sugar production was rapidly increased to compensate for the decreased production of beet sugar in Central Europe. I t is expected that European countries, notably Czechoslovakia and Germany, will attempt to regain their pre-war position in sugar production, but there is no indication of any intention of cane sugar producers to give up the dominant position in the world sugar market which they have attained in the past ten years. Consequently, sharp competition for markets is to be expected within t h e next few years between producers of cane and producers of beet sugar, the department s a y s : Beet sugar production is expected to be about 6,200,000 tons, which shows a large increase over the &,- 500,000 tons produced in 1919-20.

If the chicks .he optimistic poultryman pictures to die in trying to break through the shell it is a lack of moisture and probably too much heat. These factors are in the hands of the pov^try- .nan and not the machine. The whole point that we are trying o make is that there are literal!} lozens of causes of failure in incujator hatching, but rarely can failure oe honestly charged up to the machine if it is in proper repair and properly handled. Those who have failed with a machine in their first trial or two should not become discouraged. The next effort will probably be successful and will almost surely be so if the human factor provides all that is essential in giving it a fair chance. nimself when incubation begins. If )very egg produced a healthy chick and if every chick lived the poultry population w o u l d far more than double in a single season. Every experienced poultryman knows this to be a fact. The c a u s e s of failure are many, and many of them can be eliminated, but there always will be a certain percentage of unsatisfactory and chick morality. The When asked the question, "What *• too-teacher schools of the averlarge hatches wise breeder counts on this and plays on a wide enough margin to give him the desired staed flock, even if losses and mortality reach the maximum. If :t does not there is always a market ;'or any surplus. The incubator will be blamed for nany an unsuccessful hatch this spring, as always, but before conducing that the machine is no good t will be well to look around for )ther causes of failure. Perhaps it las not had proper care, and if this s tne ense a good hatch cannot be obtained. If the machine is of a stanlard make, put out by a reliable manufacturer and has received proper chre, the trouble lies further back, probably with the eggs. The stock vvhich produced the eggs is often reponsible for a low percentage hatch, llthough the breeder may never suspect it. There may be constitutional weakness or some unsuspected dis- 2ase which prevents the parent stock from producing eggs of high hatchability. Or the trouble may be due to the way the laying flock is fed and managed. Of course, none of these things may be responsible, but we point them out simply to show the many sources of trouble. I t is also entirely possible that the eggs, although from good stock and first laid, have been allowed t o deteriorate through careless handling before being set. Often in the early spring many of the eggs wffl become badly chilled and their virility thereby impaired. Sometimes they are kept together too long before incubation is started and as a result deteriorate Personally, we prefer eggs for hatching not to be over five or six days old. When kept longer than t h i s before setting we want to be sure that they have been given unusually good care. This means that they have been removed from the nests before being chilled and kept in a place of medium, even temperature and moved or tamed every day. If death of the embyro chicks is distributed quite well over the entire period of incubation or seems to occur st all stages of development it is % fairly safe guess that the eggs came froth poor stock. If daath of most of the germs or esabryos occurs simultaneously it is a good sign that eggs originally were aO right, bat that is $789. Producing Good Hatching Egg» A good criterion of one's ability as a poultry raiser, the Department of Agriculture says, is the number of chickens raised to maturity in proportion to the eggs set. Success depends to a large extent on this one factor. The causes for enormous losses in eggs and dead embryos occurring annually in the country are many. A conservative estimate place* the loss due to eggs t h a t did not hatch in 1923 at over $8,000,000. Be sure, department poultrymen advise, that your breeders are in exceUent health, have sanitary quarters, and t h a t one male is mated to not over 15 females. Other losses are due to t h e fact that many poor eggs are set. Test your eggs carefully, and take out all with thin and spotted shells or with cracked shells.

A Story of Michigan in Civil War Days ffiwflgffiffW'fflffwsgftra^^ &• "Dearest Rachel," ran the note. "1 am here, cooped up like a turkey fattening for the butcher. You know how I got here of course. It was that scoundrel Forbes who betrayed me into the hands of the Philistines. iHe is free to go and come as he pleases because he is expected to line up a lot of the others; it is Woodrow's orders and he is the whole thing just at present. Although I did not come here of my own free will, rest easy, dearest ,1 shan't try t o escape. 1 will go South and carry a, gun till the war ends then I'll come home to you and blessed Bud, and to even up things with my enemies. I don't know who will carry this letter, nor do I care only so you. get it in time. I am not ill treated. We will not stop here long. I hear it whispered t h a t we depart south within a week. If you could get to see me before I go I should like it well, only don't put yourself to too great trouble. One kiss for the boy, a dozen for yourself—good-by." Rachel lifted her head from the reading with streaming eves. She did not see the man sitting there in the front room waiting; her thoughts were all of the one behind the stockade at Camp Wilcox. He wished to see her once more, while she longed to clasp him against her heart, to sob out her sorrow and happiness. Yes, she was happy even in her woe in that her fugitive husband was no longer a despised deserter but a soldier for the Union, ready to do penance for the past by shedding his blood for the American Union. He 'stood a man among men once more. Her old pride was again uppermost while Rachel Clang sat back and -sopped the falling tears with her bit of muslin handkerchief. Thornton was a soldier now! Ah, how her heart swelled to the music of the sound. All his past transgressions were forgot; he was again the handsome beau who came to woo; the shadowed summer evenings fell again over the humble shingleweaver's cottage; the sweet old woods held their charm as once of old, and the light of a new happiness dawned in the soul of the conscript's wife. A low cough from the next room aroused her. She bent low and kissed the sleeping babe, then walked out to confront Forbes, who sat waiting. He had doubtless tarried for the purpose of carrying a reply to her husband's note. He was that hateful thing, a traitor, and her scorn for such as he was of the deepest. She confronted him with dry eyes and calm visage. ' T h e r e will be no answer," she said in a low voice. " B u t he'll expect one. Wbat'll I tell him when I see him?" questioned the man in a concerned voice. "Tell him anything you please." Rachel meant to go to Thornton at once; she would carry the answer to his letter. It was not this man's right to know her plans. She had no faith in him or his intentions; she would not trust him. He did not move but sat regarding her with a stolid bravado that was annoying. Why did he not go? "Didn't Thornt ask ye to come o v e r ? " he suddenly blurted. ' W h a t if he did?" half angrily. "Wal in that case I thought you might like company—" " S i r ! " "No harm intended,' protested the man quickly, his cheeks burning, his eyes flashing green tints, "I don't lay up nothin' 'cause of that little slap ye gin me in town. I meant squar* then, I mean squar' now. 1 want to help ye. Thornt is my best friend. H e — " "If that is true, why did you betray h i m ? " burst swiftly from the wife's lips, her cheeks reddening because of the contempt and anger in her heart. " F u r his good, mam," came the •wift r e t o r t "I'm going south in the same gang. Thornt'll thank me some time. As fur you—" "Please to go." She pointed toward the door, which stood ajar. Forbes sprang to his feet, a green flame in his eyes, t h a t disfiguring half smile on his lips He seemed to gloat over her aroused hatred of himself. "Don't be a fool, mam," he snapped, throwing out his lean chest. "I like you mighty well. Old Thornt hain't no call to be mad at me, nor has his woman. I've got a woman down to ther Dam, a mighty flicky critter she is too; but, by the hot hole, ahe can't hold a candle to vou, Rachel!" He advanced with outstretched hand. The cool devilishness of his smile, the masked threat in the freen eyes, sent a thrill of wild alarm to the heart of the woman. "TO escort ye to camp," said he. \ . * T « T man 11 w a n t me to, and I assure y r *tWon*t ba no trouble." His hand - ^ toothed her arm. She flung back- W*W shuddering from his touch. He atiiad the scorn in her face and s / • ^ M f c i f l da»oa« i» his eyas. "Sol W a i , * 7 the hot hole, ni make ye meek as Mo^es before I quit this house, my Lady Stuckup!" She did not scream as he laid hold of her arm. She saw the devil in his eyes and faced her peril with the courage of a true heroine. He uttered an "Oh!" as her strong young hand fell across his cheek. Smarting with pain he fell back a step. ."'•:ie dafli-d to her bedroom, closing and securing the dooi. He followed quickly, shaking the door angrily. Rachel's heart beat wildly. She glared helplessly about, saw the baby in his crib, ran to him, gathered the boy to her throbbing breast, whirled to the window, forcing up the sash. No time was to be lost with that savage brute banging at the thin door. The frightened young wife crawled across the ledge, dropping into the sweet air of the September night which was warm midsummer. A strange silence was over all, not even the peep of a bird disturbed the stillness. The atmosphere seemed close and brooding. The distance to the woods was not great. She ran toward this with the clogs of fear dragging at her feet. A loud crash was borne to her ears from the rear. She knew its import—the traitor had forced an entrance to her bedroom! She glanced backward to see him climbing through the open window. Rachel pushed on, entering the cooling embraces of the glooming hemlocks. Many times in the past she had enjoyed the fragrance of the woodsy smells of an autumn day. She gave no thought to extraneous things now while watching from her leafy covert her enemy striding across the open field toward her. He was coming directly along her trail, hot with rage, merciless as a panther where helpless womanhood was concerned. Half a mile across the woods stood the cabin of a settler and to this Rachel resolved to flee. Even as this thought flecked her brain sound of wheels attracted her notice. She glanced out once more to see a man and light vehicle coming along the woods road from the direction of Logtown. It was the provost marshal and he was alone. For once sight of this man brought to the heart of Rachel Clang a feeling of wild joy. Big Darwin Forbes was approaching at a rapid stride. He paused, however, «t sound of wheels. Sspying the marshal, and noting that he was drawing up to the Clang hou-jp the big villain suddenly changed his plans. Turning, he retraced his steps to the house, Rachel, seeing this, breathed easier. She waited, hoping that Forbes would go, His bulky form disappeared around the house where she knew he was talking with Woodrow. The scoundrel certainly had his nerve on tap she thought. Ten long minutes she waited. The buggy whirled away with Forbes on the seat beside Marshal Woodrow. Joy indeed! Rachel lifted Thornton higher across her shoulders and set out on the return. A young man was passing on foot as she entered the road near the house. "Why, Mrs. Clang, wnere have you been—Carrying T h o r n t y ? " exclaimed the young fellow, ' o u look hot and tired to death." "I feel t h a t way til right," and Rachel forced a laugh. "Did you meet two men in a buggy, Josiah?" "I met Tom Woodrow." ' W h o was with him?" "Nobody. He drove at a fast clip, seeming to be in a hurry." "Are you sure Darwin Forbes was not with him, Mr. Meadows?" "I saw only Tom." A new fear shot to the heart of Rachel Clang. The traitor having so soon left Woodrow must surely be meditating mischief. His ride with the marshal was only a blind, he knowing that she was watching. Rachel took young Mr. Meadows into her confidence, he being such a friend of Jack's she knew that she could trust him. ' T h e confounded scamp!" exploded Josiah when all was told. "I'll stop a while, Mrs. Clang, and see if he pokes his nose back here again." This was satisfactory^ Meadows entered the house and seated himself in the front room. Rachel realized that it would be impossible for her to see her husband today. She was now too tired and worried to think of undertaking the journey. Meadows was a pleasant young fellow, entertaining her with pleasing conversation, interspersed with stories of his hunting experience. On the approach of night Rachel left her boy ir» Meadows' charge while she prepared the evening meal. The young man kept Master Clang in fine fettle with his new watch and baby prattle. Josiah seemed such a nice young fellow Rachel was very thankful for hia kindly interest in her behalf. They sat at table for half an hour. On rising to go Josiah said: "I don't think it quite safe for you to stay here alone, Mrs. Clang." Rachel was of the same thought yet she refused to seem afraid, asto him; he could surely curb tht scoundrel Forbes. ] A dread, uncanny silence hung over the place. Rachel came out of | her dizzy dream with a start. Something— a dreadful crack—split the outside air, accompanied by shouts and oaths. A minute of silence, after which came the bark of pistol shots. Rachel rose swiftly to her | feet, trembling with new alarm. I Presently a step sounded outside, followed immediately by a light rap Ion the door. ' "Mrs. Clang, are you u p ? " | It was the voice of Tom Woodrow. Fear tied from the woman, a great, glad thrill taking its place. She wexr. quickly to the door and opened it, at the same time concealing her : pistol in a pocket of her amply skirt. , The marshal entered with outstretched hand which she VJOK in jwondering thankfulness. j "Don't be frightened, Mrs. Clang," said he in his richest tones. "You | heard the skirmish of course.'' He laughed at the last. " I t was nothing very serious, although the man 1 corraled put up a sharp fight He is suring him that she would be all right. She thought perhaps she would pass the night at a neighbors. "I'll tell you what, Mrs. Clang," said he on departing, 'I'll come back after a while if you say so." "Not for the world,' in quick protest. "A two mile walk just to keep away spooks is nonsensical. I am not the least bit afraid." Meadows stood thoughtful for a minute then fumbled in his pockets. "Here is something," said he, "I had repaired at the shop this morning. Take it in welcome till I see you again." He thrust a small double-barrel pistol into her hand. The next instant he was gone. Night fell dark, with a t h r e a t of rain. The wind rose and moaned about the corners of the house. The night promised to be a dismal one after all. Thornton was snugly tucked in his crib when a knock startled her. Rachel hesitated only a moment, then went boldly to the door and opened it. On the threshold stood the ogre of her fears—Darwin Forbes, bigger, more devilishly malicious than before! CHAPTER XVI A Night of Peril Rachel uttered a cry, stepping quickly backward. When she attempted to close the door Forbes thrust his foot across the threshold, barring its closure. He grasped the edge of the door and pushed it wide open. His face was black with rage. He had come with a fell purpose. Rachel retreated to the table where she held her ground. "Top of the evening to ye, Mis' Clang," grinned he audaciously. His beady green eyes roved about the room, the lonely condition of his friend's wife not seeming to appeal to his sense of chivalry in the least. "Can't ye speak to a fellow?" he demanded with a deeper grin. She made no reply and he went on, ' I 'lowed yu'd be alone and lonesome so I jest dropped in to comfort ye a bit. No harm done I hope?" He slouched across the room and examined the walls as if expecting to find something of a contraband nature. "I've been made gov'ment detective like," he grunted, with a low laugh. "Sense your man was nabbed it's my business ter see that things go right at this house. Ye might be plannin' ter rescue him ye see." "Mr. Forbes. I nrefer to be alom\" chillingly retorted Rachel. He lifted his brows and stared insinuatingly. She clutched beneath t h e folds of her gown the weapon Meadows had given her, its possession giving her added courage, Forbes may have marvelled at her coolness, since after that one little outcry she was as calm as ice. ' N o w that's not nice of you, Rache," he began, only to be interrupted. "Leave this house instantly," hurled the woman, pointing to the door that stood slightly ajar. There was a warning glitter in her handsome eyes which made him a trifle nervous. However, he had a definite plan in view which he had no thought of relinquishing at the beck of s pretty woman. "I don't allow that I have t o , " he sneered. The lips of Rachel tightened. Her hand clinched the pictol butt- with a nervous twitching, her breath crossing her lips in uneven flow. The villain leaned over toward her, his eyes flashing green lights, his teeth gleaming in the lamplight, his knotty hands half raised as if to seize her person. "Are you going?" she asked frigidly. ' N o t much. I'm going to kiss—" An oath mingled with an alarmed cry followed. Forbes went back to the wall since he found himself looking into two dark glistening barrels of steel, behind which was a straightened (arm, clinched fingers and an angry woman. Rachel was white, weak, yet determined, her slender form as rigid as a wooden image. "Fore God, don't shoot, Mis' Clang!" gasped the frightened and cowardly Forbes. " P u t up the gun. It might go off." —-lit will go off—both barrels—unless you get out!" flashed the woman. "Mercy on us, woman! what have I d o n e — " " G o ! " "Yoa—Y-e-s mam, I'm go—going!" 9'.'*'•*•: The tall riverman tumbled over his feet in an awkward attempt to make his exit from that flaming force in his front. A minute later Rachel Clang stood alone m the room. She was as white as chalk, the muscles iri her forearm twitching with its strain. The pistol had saved her. She lowered her arm and went to the door which she closed and bolted. Despite the closeness of the confined air she dared not risk an open door or window. Reaction naturally followed the tenseness of the long strain. The room seemed suddenly to waltz about in mad glee. Rachel went to a chair and sat down, resting an elbow on the table, dropping her chalky face into the fold of her two hands. The ordeal of the day and evening had quite broken her spirit. It was patently unsafe for her now that her husband no longer lingered in the vicinity of his home. Could it be that this man Forbes was to go free to be a menace to her forever? The thought was maddening in its fearful possibilities. She thought of Woodrow, determining to appeal safe now, however. I trust he has not annoyed you, Pachel?" "Of whom are yc u speaking'."' "This fellow Forbes. He deeeivt-d u.s shamefully. H.' won't work any more of his tricks. I have the scamp safe now. If you have a lantern J will show you whac has been done." " W a s it Ferbes who did the shooti n g ? " she asked, wondering why he had, if armed, allowed her to cowe him so easily. "A part of it. My man did hia share. The rascal is now in irons and will be taken care of. WTe expected much from his aid, but he has proved a broken reed. No honor among thieves after all. He will soon be safely inside the pen." A sigh of deep relief fell from the woman's lips. "I hope he may never come back" she said simply, like a child who has but just escaped from an imagined danger. ''He has annoyed me terribly. I have been afraid to sleep for fear of the wretch.' "Please tell me about it, Mrs. Clang." Rachel complied, going over her experiences of the past few hours in a succinct yet hurried manner. The face of her auditor flushed with anger while he listened. "I am glad I drove over tonight," he said. "He shall never trouble you again, Rachel, never." WToodrow stood in an attitude of indecision. His errand was completed yet he did not seem in a hurry to depart, nor did Rachel attempt to ease his embarrassment. She sim- ; ply thanked him with a pressure of the hand, accompanying the pressure with an eloquent look. ' A n d now you wish to see your husband before he goes?" said the marshal in sudden inspiration. "Oh, yes, yes," she avowed, "but I cannot go tonight—" "I will drive round for you Monday." suggested he. 'Thank you ever so much." (To be continued) Upper Peninsula Farm Problems Agricultural problems of the upper peninsula center in the clearing of sufficient land to make each farm self-sustaining, and to find the crops that can be raised in a summer of 77 frost-free days. This is the conclusion reached by Prof. G. W. Putnam, who became director of the Upper Peninsula Experimental Station at Chatham, April 1. There are other problems, Prof. Putnam admits, but these he believes to be the chief ones. He has spent three years in the upper peninsula and has done considerable work connected with plant selection for that part of the state. The reason for the land clearing problem is unique, the new director says. Somewhere near 60 per cent of the people now on upper peninsula farms reached that part of the world through a desire to work in the mines. They have moved out from the mining areas and cleared parts of their farms, working in the mines part of the time. Many of these men now are ready to quit the mines, Mr. Putnom says, but lack the, number of acres to make the farm sustaining. The average of cleared land per farm is 37 acres, according to statistics. "Dairying is the fundamental livestock industry of the upper peninsula," Prof. Putnam said, "because of the grain and hay conditions there. One of the first new problems will be to conduct experiments with feeds raised there. All small grains can be raised, and sunflowers are taking the place of corn for silage. Another experiment will be the raising of field peas as a feed crop. It is possible to raise 30 to 45 bushels of field peas to the acre there. Experiment? with feeding field peas also will be conducted. V\hile the work of the station at Chatham will not vary much from the work of the past, experiments will be made in the raising of canning peas, while more extensive experiments w'th sugar beets also will be undertaken."Michigan Investor.

W e e k o f M a y 4 During the opening days of this week in Michigan it is expected that the temperatures will be low for the season. Nevertheless they will return to normal and rise considerably above that point on or before Friday. From that time on up to the last week of May the country generally will experience a general rise in the temperature. During the last week in May the tide will turn and from then until the first few days in June temperatures will be on the downward trend. The reader must not confuse our term of genera! trend to mean that the temperature will continue steadily downward or upward without any fluctuations. Day by day temperture changes may be considerable but when the mean for each day is taken over any determined period, it will be found to run either up or down as forecast in these columns. Rainfall is not expected to be very extensive throughout the United Stales during this week. In Michigan practically the entire week with the exceptions of the very first part. and the last part will be devoid of any appreciable amount of precipitation. During the last days of this week the winds will increase in force enough to bring danger upon the Great Lakes surrounding Michigan and to cause some inconvenience, if not damage, to many inland counties. M a y t o b e W a r m M o n t h May as a whole in Michigan may be expected to manifest a considerable number of electrical storms and other kindred phenomena. Thunder storms and local rains will be numerous throughout the state during the month. However, we are not expecting that precipitation in this state generally will reach normal at the end of May. o W o n d e r W h a t T h e y G a v e H i m Superintendent—It is our custom to let a prisoner work at the same trade in here as he did outside.

Their school work was poor. They frequently fell asleep over their lessons. These facts led to an investigation at home which showed that the father had died the year before, leaving little to his wife and sons except the heavily mortgaged, ramshackle house in which they lived. The boys and mother earned a scanty living by selling papers. Though the mother was frail, she and the children were out in all kinds of weather often in rain-soaked shoes and too late at night. They were up early in the morning to sell and were often out late a t night. Fortunately Mrs. S. and her four small boys lived in a State where it was possibly by law to give public aid to children in their own homes. An allowance was made to the mother for the care of the children in their own home. Six years later t h e family was seen in a comfortable homelike flat. The eldest boy had a good position and was going to night school. One boy was in high school, the others had good grade school records. Had such a situation occurred before 1-911 or even today in six States or the District of Columbia the sequel might not have been so happy. It was not until 1911 that the first "mothers' pension" law was passed. Before this {and even today in the six states referred to) the public authorities would have had to separate the children from the mother in order to use public funds on their behalf. How much better for children, for mother and for community it is to safeguard and protect a good home than to build institutions, no matter how elaborate, to receive the fragments of a broken home. When these laws were first suggested they received the name "mothers' pension" laws. This is a misleading name. They grant aid to children, not pensions to mothers. "Children's Aid" laws might be a better title. At first these laws granted aid only if the father were dead. Gradually, however, the law* became more liberal, granting aid if £he father had deserted or was incapacitated to earn a living. Today the Children's Bureau study shows that only four states limit such aid to widows, while twenty-five give it to widows and to other mothers who need it for such reasons as the desertion, insanity, imprisonmnent or incapacity of the father. Thirteen states give aid not only to mothers who need it but also to other relatives who may be taking care of children and may need help. The tendency of recent laws is also to be more liberal in the amounts granted than were the earlier laws. In the most progressive laws, the amount to be granted is left in the hands of the officials or board especially qualified to deal with these problems. Such boards make out a careful family budget allowing for all the items rrecessary for the health and well-being of the children. Then | they find out how much the family rei sources are and try to give enough I to make up the difference between what the family has and what it ought to have. Under such up-todate systems friendly visitors advise the mothers in the care of their children and in the management of the household, showing them how to pan well and where economy is good and where it is bad. Many states still limit the usefulness of their mothers' pension laws by restricting the amount of aid to a ridiculously low sum, such as $5 or $10 a month for one child. If you would like more information about the laws in your own state in regard to dependent children, write either your State Department of Public Welfare or the Children's Bureau at Washington. Fine Plan for Hot Lunches at School There ha? been so much discussion about hot school lunches that I thought some teacher and many mothers might be interested in my plan. My pupils are all small and come long distances. Cooking at school seemed impossible as it involved too much time. I brought a large pail and one-half dozen wire fruit jar holders for cold-pack canning. Each mother prepares some food for her children, puts it into a fruit j a r and sends it to school. I loosen the lids, set the jars in a wire rack, place in cold water and put on the heater. By noon the lunch is hot. I like this plan better than cooking a dish at school as there always are some children who dislike certain dishes. By this plan each child has the food he likes. There is no confusion in preparation and no dishes to wash as each child takes home his dish or c a p . The mothers are enthusiastic over the plan as hot soups, stews, creamed vegetables, postum, cocoa or hotmilk do away with much baking of cakes and pies. I consider these foods much more wholesome than cold lunches.—Mrs, Jane C. Shepard in Capper's Parmer. o gins to boil, add spice bag, and let simmer slowly for one hour.

Here it is: The Snow Ball Battle Once upon a time there were ten boys. Now these ten boys had a club. One night at the club the captain said let us have a snowball battle, One of the boys said, where will the snowbattle be? How many want it out in back? AW the boys wanted it out in back, so the captain said we will have it out in back. Another boy said, when shall the snowball battle be'.' Tomorrow said the captain. Ray Blett. Well Ray you have done pretty well and now sometime you will have to tell us how the snowball battle came out. Chesaning, Mich, Dear Uncle—I have never written to you before so I would like to write a story of my very own. The name of the story is "The Boy That Brought His Father the Dinner." Once the father went out to plow in the field he had a little boy about three years old. The little boy's mother always about noon time went out in the field where her husband was plowing. She brought him his dinner. The next day he went out into the field again. The little boy said, "Mother let me bring daddy his dinned today." His mother said, "he was too small but he could go." So the boy took the dinner and started on his way. When he came to his father he said, "Here is your dinner." His father sat under a shady tree to eat his dinner "" The little boy s^ar^ed to pU/v he crawled into the horse's ear. Soon a man came along he wondered how the horses could plow alone so he went to the little boy's father and told him about it. He said my little son crawled into the horse's e a r and is driving them. The roan said "will you sell me t h a t boy for five hundred dollars." The boys father said, I do not know." When the little boy came back with his horses his father told the little boy about it. The little boy said let me go I will come back to you. So the man put t h e little boy into his suit case and started off. The little boy took his knife out of his pocket and made a hole in the suit case and ran to his father. The end Will I get a prize? Anna Nechvil. Uncle Ernest will see if we can find a prize for Anna—sure all the Scribe members will agree, a new member doing: so well, in writing ought to win a prize. I am a boy nine years old.

Dear Uncle Ernest—I will give you some riddles: What word is there of five letters which by taking away two leave one? Answer—Stone When will the alphabet become shorter? Answer—When you and I are one. In the Chilworth we have a splendid example of what can be done toward interesting arrangement in the block type of house. No one would ever guess in passing this house that the floor plan was so nearly square. The low roof with its wide overhangand the long roof line of the porch are most effective in overcoming the boxlike effect. Grouping of the windows and the long rectangular openings of the porch also help materially. Another intelligent idea was that of the artistic corner entrance. From the entrance we step into a large vestibule lighted by a side window and having a coat closet with double doors. Two low broad steps take us up to the main floor level into the living room. The immense fireplace and generous proportions of the room are Us chief features although the vista provided by Frenci. doors to the porch and the front windows grouping add greatly to its attractiveness. The wide opening separating the dining room from the living room gives a dignified effect to both rooms and gives each the benefit of light and air from the porch. In the kitchen every provision has been made to lighten the work there as much as possible. Cabinets, cupboards, sink and work table, are all adjacent to each other and in good light. The range is set well out of the way and there is a closet for the heavier kitchen articles and cleaning equipment. There is a door to t h e living room giving quick access to the front door and the stairs. On the second floor the three bed rooms, bath and .inen closet open off a central hall. Of particular interest are the large closets in t h e bed rooms and the luxurious bath which has bath t u b and shower as well as a cabinet for linen storage. Placed with its widest dimensions toward t h e front, this house requires a lot 60 feet wide but by building the porch at the back, a narrower lot could be used. The ornamentation over the front entrance and on the columns of the porch can be beautifully executed in concrete. The advantages of concrete masonry construction are its permanence and economy. Portland cement stucco in one of the many attractive colors and textures possible with this material, makes an exterior t r e a t m e n t that is free from expense of continued painting bills.

KAISER Agricultural Engineer r ^ R O M the very fact that milk is used as a human food it is essential to exercise the greatest care to keep it clean and wholesome. Milk is a product that absorbs disagreeable odors very quickly and if left stand in a stable where bad odors are present it will in a surprisingly short time be contaminated. in many sections of this country for dairy barn floors. Plank floors with cracks full of tilth are being taken up and a permanent concrete floor put in their place. This work can be done at any season of the year when there is time to do the work. The floor can be laid in winter if the interior of the barn can be b Length to $uif copocify <f*s/r*<J T k e floor pkn sKown ahove was ptepaied by the Anterior Society of Agricultural Engineer* after • study of several thousand plans. Whether the cows face in or out is largely a matter of personal perfar* Here they face in. BeloV is shown the cross-section of a well-designed dairy ham. ihosring the plan and dimensions of the immete floors, mangers and gutters. dairy barn layouts which they furnish free to farmers. Many barn equipment " manufacturers also furnish this information without charge. Tl «.' first step in the construction of a dairy barn floor is to clear out rubbish and bring the area to proper level. All holes should be filled and if there are any soft spots these should be tamped solid. The manger curb is usually built first and it is very important to do this job right so that steel stanchions will fit. The curb should be 5 or ft inches thick and project about (> inches above top of floor level when finished. For the curb a 1:2:3 mixture is recommended This means that each sack of cement will be mixed with 2 cubic feet of clean sand and 3 cubic feet of pebbles or crushed rock. Sand should all pass through a screen with quarter inch mesh. Stone should be clean, rough and vary in size from one quarter inch up to 1¼ inches. Concrete must be placed in form immediately after mixed and should be tamped or spaded to make sure th;\t all holes are completely filled. The stall platform is usually buili next and it is very similar to building a sidewalk. A 1:2:3 concrete mixture is used. The full thickness of the floor is placed at one time. This is known as one-course construction and is generally more satisfactory than two-course work. A wood float should be used for finishing. It will produce a smooth surface yet leave it just gritty enough so that it will not get slippery. Do not use a steel trowel as it is likely to give a surface that will become slippery which is very objectionable in a dairy barn. The concrete manger can be placed a t about the same time as the stall platform using the same mixture of concrete. A steel trowel is used for finishing manger so as to get a smooth surface for t h e "The old filthy plank floored, poorly lighted, ill ventilated barn is the h a r - binger of disease, especially tuberculosis," says W. B. Barney, State Dairy and F o o d Commissioner of Iowa, in a recent report to the Governor of t h a t state. If all ordinances on floor construction were summed up in a single sentence they would read about as follows: " N o building shall be used for stabling cows which is not provided with an easily cleaned, impervious floor." T h e dairyman must be constantly at w a r with filth. The cows must be kept clean, the utensSs in which milk is kept must be kept d e a n a n d the barn must be d e a n . An easily cleaned impervious floor in t h e dairy b a r n is very necess a r y . Concrete is used 7&£&%-* kept above freezing for four or five days until concrete has hardened, A good plan is necessary so as to avoid costly *»<«**»?— Once concrete has hardened it b difficult to remove. M o s t agricultural colleges have suggested animals to eat from. The litter and feed alleys are easily constructed after mangers and stalls are finished. From 10 days to 3 weeks should be allowed for concrete to harden before floor is put into use.

(Copyright, 1924, by James Milford Merrill.) A Story of Michigan in Civil War Days CHAPTER XIV A Wily HalfWeed Jack Perkins encountered Marshal Woodrow early the next morning and learned from him t h a t Thornton Clang was at last behind the stockade. The hoy made an early call a t the camp, interviewed an officer and was permitted to speak with his brotherin- law. Immediately thereafter Jack hired a rig and drove out to see his sister who, he knew, would be suffering all sorts of alarms. The boy was back at Logtown by noon. Making his excuses to the boss at the mill he resumed his work once more. Several days passed. Saturday afternoon the mill was idle from a broken shaft and Jack was free for the rest of the day. The boy thought of Rachel and of Evelyn. He had met the latter but once since the war meeting. Evelyn lived with her parents in the city, save for the times when she came down to the little lumber town to visit an aunt and other friends. Jack wondered if she might not be here now. The boy occupied a room in the big boarding house expressly for the use of the Burridge mill hands. He dusted his best garments and prepared to sally forth a well groomed young man. His first objective point wass the home of Evelyn's Aunt Tote. He ran boldly up the steps and rapped, door bells not being in evidence among lumber people at that time. Evelyn herself opened the door. Her face flushed with pleased surprise on seeing Jack. She invited him in and soon the two sat in the parlor in earnest confab. "I just guessed you were here," said Jack. ''I wanted to see you mighty bad, Evelyn." "Yes?" with a lifting of her delicate brows. " I — t h a t is—you see—" "Well?" with a tantalizing smile. "I want to tell you why I didn't go as a soldier last month," uttered the boy, gaining courage from her winning smile. "I didn't have a chance that night with so many around. It's happened as I knew it would, and I want you to understand?" "Why of course you do, Jack." "And I'm going to tell you—they've got old T h o m t at last!" "Old T h o m t ? " "Why, the deserter—a brothar-inlaw of mine I'm sorry to say." "Surely. I have heard a good deal about him. He has been a leader among the draft sneaks—er-er—evad era of the draft you know, papa says. So they have him at last have they? That is good, begging your pardon, Mr. Perkins," ending in a confused low laugh. "You don't need to ask my pardon,' protested the boy quickly. "I am used to hearing hard things about Thornt. He brought a heap of trouble upon my sister and made us all ashamed of him. They caught him last Tuesday and h e l l have to go South. I ain't sorry either—-only for Rachel." The speaker ruffled his bristling red locks with his fingers, seeming much perturbed. He felt embarrassed beneath the clear gaze of the girl's bright eyes. " I t ain't quite as bad as it would be if he were a blood relation you know, Evelyn," hazarded Jack. "Of course not," agreed the girl. "And now I have a duty to perform." " W h a t is t h a t ? " "To Rachel, who is now left all alone. Say, Evelyn," and the boy's breast swelled with feeling, "I wisH you would drive over some day and call on my sister. I will take you if you will only go—you have never met her." "I have not, but you must excuse me today. Jack." Evelyn glanced out of the window jo where two soldiers in army blue were passing. One of these halted at the gate. Jack followed her gaze. frowning when he saw t h a t the man who halted was Captain Ranger. Somehow, that official was always around when Jack wished to talk with Evelyn. The captain and his mate separated at the gate,, Ranger approaching the house. A delicate blush stole into the cheeks of the girl. Jack was angry. He bit his lip and said "Darn it" under his breath, after which he sprank to his feet- "I 'sposc I may as well make myself scarce now that he's come," he flung out disgustedly. "I wish that old regiment would go South this very day." A merry laugh fell from the girl's lips. She seemed to delight in the discomfiture of her boy admirer. **Weli," and a sudden gravity chased the laugh into the shadows, "who's fault is H t h a t the regiment lingers? I am afraid you are less patriotic t h a n some. The regiment would have gone lo&jr *ffo if the men of the lumber country had filled its quota. It'« the stay-at-homes who are to blame." Tbe speaker's eyes sparkled as she rebukinrly at her young Jack writhed. She did not t o UBderstand after alL There jrftjf Captain Ranger, handsome as a gag a soldier! Hia patriotism could * g | ha doobted, and be a Canuck at tfcgf! Jack fait like tearing the epaulets from his shoulders and grinding them under his heel. What right had foreigners coming over here and enlisting to fight for an alien flag? Let them stay at home, there Were Americans enough to do the fighting! And then the boy remembered Thornton and flushed with shame. "Evelyn," he said, pressing his hat over his touselled red head, " I mean to go if the war lasts another year, i swear it—but you see—" Captain Ranger was rapping at the door so the girl excused herself. There was nothing for Jack to do but depart, which he did, simply nodding to the captain of calvary as he passed. There was a bitter surge of emotion in the boy's undisciplined heart as he passed down the street. He turned his steps in the direction of Camp Wilcox determined to see his sister's husband and then go over to Hemlock Run and visit Rachel. The boy was admitted to camp and met Thornton, who seemed quite cheerful under the circumstances. Jack talked with him about his wife and little boy, promising to look carefully after them during the absence of husband and father. Jack was surprised and pleased to note that Thornton was reconciled to the inevitable, so much so as to sem absolutely cheerful. "I haven't altered my belief, J a c k / ' avowed the conscript when questioned about the war. "I shall always maintain that this is an unholy crusade aprain.st .Southern rights, but it is folly for me to kick against the pricks. I expect to do my duty, leaving the result to Providence." Jack went away pleased and thoughtful. That evening the boy had a caller in the person of Indian Pete. The two were alone together in Jack's room under the low eaves of the boarding house. The rtalfbreed cam* in with the gliding motion of his kind. He refused to sit at first, seeming uneasy and watchful, starting at the slightest sound. "Roy all by his self Pete see," said the fellow after a minute. "That's my usual condition, Pete," laughed the boy. "Good!" The tall halfbreed locked the door, after he drew a chair and sat down Jack was mystified at these actions of the river pilot. "Theres no call to be so cautious here, Pete," declared the boy. "Nobody cares a hooter what we do or say/' "So dey git heem after all, eh?" "Pete speak out like a man and tell me what you mean." "Dat man T'orn't." "Oh, yes, I see. Well, I hope you ain't mourning over his capture since I am not, Pete?" "Putty dum tough fur T'ornt." "Yes, you might call it so, but then—" "Go ahead, old fellow." "Heem have to go Sout soon, e h ? " "I think so. The Seventh will get a move on witAin ten days or such a matter I am told, and I have an idea they'll not leave any conscripts behind." "So! We can git T'ornt out, e h ? n "Out of the pen! D'ye mean we can help him to escape?" gasped Jack, eyeing the old redskin with a keen appreciation of his cunning. "Jacko got heem straight." "If you've got that idea in your head, Pete, shunt it," warned Jack, half laughing. '"We aren't doing that sort of business—at least not I." " B u t Tornt no like stay. Dum mean trick of de man what git heem catch, you not t'ink so, e h ? " "It's a case of no honor among thieves, Pete," chuckled Jack. "It was a mean trick on the part of Darwin Forbes all right. Thorntll even that up some time, be sure of that. Just now, however, it's best to lay low and say nothing." "Dat right, Jacko," agreed Indian Pete with snapping eyes. He got up, walked to the window, gazed an instant into the darkness, then wheeled facing the boy. His dark face was as stolid as tanbark, yet by the flash of his eye Jack knew he was deeply excited. "Jacko want to see heem's hrudider free. Now we fix dat all right, |him help P e t e — " j "No, no, Pete," quickly protested the boy, "I'll have nothing to do with any foolishness like that. I want Thornton to go South and fight like a man. Can you understand t h a t ? " "Den you like T'ornt git killed, eh?" "Sure not. But I tell you he is no better to face Rebel bullets than other men. I mean to enlist next year myself. Now, Pete, don't get yourself into a scrape. If you undertake anything like this they'll nab you, then what—youll be triced tip and shot!" The halfbreed forced a derisive laugh. Evidently he was not impressed with what Jack Perkins said about danger to himself. It was also apparent that he was disappointed over the treatment Jack gave his little p l o t " P e t e no scare," he said. "Him Ml too." Jack had nothing further to offer. He did not ask after the manner in which his visitor expected to effect H rescue, which, to the boy, seemed hair-brained in any event. He suddenly produced a box of dominoes and asked the halfbreed to play. He hoped by diverting his thoughts to turn him away from hia schemes of rescuing the conscript. Pete, however, refused to comply. Instead 're tossed hia massive head and gave ut terance to a sneering grunt. "Boy no t'ink much of heem's. brudder," sniffed he. "Like see heem1 killed mebbe. Pete he like save heem's friend." "Oh, well, t h a t is aa one looks at it," retorted Jack. "I think old gponsive, her heart beating with in Thornt is just where he deserves to be. I wouldn't lift a finger to put him back in the woods, sneaking about like a thief. His duty is with the brave men who are fighting for ual in her delicate gray gown and jaunty hat. At any rate so thought the man who swung down the road toward the Clang home, a queer smile on his sallow face. The young wife uttered a low dismayed cry, retreating inside, closing the door. She had recognized the coming man as the betrayer of her husband, and although her heart was "very bitter against him, she detested rather than feared him. She sat si- <| ent while his knuckles beat sharply en the door. "Hello, Mis' Clang, open the door," called the man in his mildest manner. "I've got something for ye— open up I say." Rachel sat unrecreased rapidity. She thought that he could not have called for any good purpose so felt inclined to defy him. Her woman's nature was wroth over what he had done to the flag. Get sensible, Pete, and l e t ! Thornton, a thing that no soft words old Thornt rest." Indian Pete refused to "get sen sible," however. He prowled about the room like a caged coyote. Jack became more than half angry; he could not quite understand why thil son of the forest wanted to aid hia sister's husband. Could it be that he had hope of reward? Indians are ever avaricious and Pete was no exv ception to the rule. Saying no more, the boy rattled his dominoes about the pine table and watched the halfjbreed furtively. \ "Well, Pete mst go," finally a i i ticulated the pilot, turning toward the entrance. Jack was on his feefc instantly. He walked to the door with his caller, placing a hand oh his arm, saying warningly: "Don't attempt anything unl ful, Pete. Old Thornt is all rig where he is. I dont believe he carefc to escape.' "Mebbe so, mebbe not," the halfbreed. i on lavf •ighlt gruntefl The two stood in the open doorway for one silent minute. The two stood in the open doorway for one silent minute. Jack clung to the arm of his Indian frienJL He was loath to see him go while in his present mood. Doubtless Pete imagined the boy would be delighted with his plan to aid the conscript. To have cold water thrown on his well intentioned efforts soured the Indian. "I hope you won't give this foolish plot a second thought," admonished Jack. " I t would be foolhardy on your part and result in no good whatever. Thornton would not escape now if the gates were thrown wide. He has decided to go into the army and be a patriot from this time on." The Indian uttered a grunt, whether of approval or disdain the boy could not decide. Jack accompanied his caller to the foot of the stairs, here again uttering his warning, seeing the tall form dart unanswering into the gloom. Jack went back into his room little dreaming of what the outcome was to be. His thoughts went back to Evelyn and to Captain Ranger. His boyish dreams were haunted long after by the smiling visage of his Canuck rival little imagining what the near future was to bring forth. I . CHAPTER XV I A L e t t e r F r o m the P e a Rachel Clang felt somewhat relieved after that talk with her brother. A load of uncertainty was lifted from her heart. Thornton had not been harmed as she had feared; he was safe within the stockade »f Wingdam, and would doubtless make no effort to escape. Why should he* It was of course humiliating to be seized and forced into the army, bu*- far better so, she reasoned than the uncertainty and arduous life of tb* woods and swamps. It was Saturday afternoon and Rachel was debating the idea of a visit to her husband. The little bo;* 'was asleep so that it would be easy 'enough to call in a neighbor's girl to look after the house till her return. She was anxious to see her husband and tell him how much she wanted him to accept the inveitable and strive, t o make a good soldiar. It was mid-afternoon. Rachel had every scrap of her week's end work completed and was ready to call in the neighbor's girl, child of the one who had on a former occasion taken charge of little Thornton. She stood in the doorway, dressed for the long walk, looking even prettier than uscould salve The man tried the door which Rachel had thoughtfully locked. The hinges having been repaired the door did not yield. "Confound you for a silly woman anyhow," snarled the riverman. "I've got a letter for you from Thornt. If you don't let me in I'll tear it to bits I swear it, my lady." This threat had its effect. Rachel sprang up and approached the door. There was no fear in her heart, only detestation of the man. He had a message from Thornton; she would read it let what would come. Unhesitatingly she opened the door admitting Forbes. His Indian face glowed with a degree of triumph as he stepped across the threshold. He sat down, not waiting an invitation, producing a soiled envelope from his pocket. Rachel received the letter, retiring to the next room, sitting down beside her baby while she read the husband and father's epistle. (To be continued) .—o Rain of Dead Birds Is Attributed to Electricity Burlington, N.J.—Scientists are still puzzled over the death of hundreds of blackbirds which fell out of a flock flying over an orchard near here. The majority declare that some form of static electricity, perhaps powerful radio counter currents, killed the birds. The flock was flying over the Pippincutt fruit farm when the birds began falling from the center of the flock. They fell for a minute or two. Only part of the flock was affected. Must Pay $16,000 for Saying 'Hello, Sweetheart* to Wife of Another New York.—It cost Harris Beckelman, landlord, $1,000 a letter for saying, "Hello, Sweetheart," to Mrs. Bertha Goodman, a tenant. Mrs. Goodman was so surprised, she said before a supreme court jury that she tripped over a broken stair rod and fell downstairs. She was in the hospital for six months. The jury gave Mrs. Goodman $15,000 and her husband $1,000 damages against Beckelman. o Bankers in the rural districts of Michigan are to be unofficial extension agents of the Michigan Agricultural College through plans formulated by members of the agricultural commission of the American Bankers' Association in co-operation with Dr. R. S. Shaw, acting president of M. A. C. Through the federal land banks and the federal intermediate credit banks the farmer may now obtain long term and intermediate credit and through his local bank he may obtain short term loans. Thus his problem is not how to obtain a loan, but how to find the wherewithal to repay it when it comes due. The bankers believe that the use of efficient methods will go a long way toward strengthening the financial position of farmers. A resolution of the state Conservation Department has been presented to the State Administration Board proposing an appropriation of $50,000 to be used in advertising the attractions, advantages and opportunities of the state in national publications. The idea is to attract tourists, home-seekers and investors. It was said the development organizations could not carry on this work alone. The matter was referred to a special committee. The conservation department also asked the board for $50,000 in addition to the $150,- 000 appropriated by the 1923 state legislature for the development of state parks. o Medical prescriptions in France must be written in the language of t h a t country. o According to some author! les the surface of the human body is alxjut 16 square foet. o — Th*> serving of the flesh of wild birds protected by the migratory bird treaty act with meals in hotels, restaurants or other places is unlawfuL —o— The famous Liberty Bell in Inde pendence h a l l Philadelphia, will be placed on continuous exhibition behind an ironwork yrilL W E E K OF APRIL 27 Winds will be in the west, northwest and north in most parts of Michigan during the very early part of this week, with a storm area slowly moving eastward to the Atlantic coast. Details of this storm were given in this column last week. Before T u e s d a y temperatures throughout most parts of the state will have shown a marked rising tendency due to what we believe will be an unusually high tide in the atmosphere. The middle part of the week will be wrought with dangers to the lake shipper because of the high winds and gales we expect to come out of the barometric combination at that time. Wind and rain storms will also be heavy a t inland cities and towns of the state. It is not unlikely that floods and washouts will be reported following the effects of this storm period. A short respite is expected following the middle of the week in Michigan in which the winds may die down and the sky clear up, but we do not think the temperatures will show any appreciable drop earlier than Saturday. Up to this time, in fact, during most all the week t e m p e r a t u r e s wffl be considerably above the seasoaal normal. While we are expectiag a decided fall in t e m p e r a t u r e at t h e end of this week ur beginning of next, it is not our idea t h a t t h e readings will be much below normal for this time o£ year. Temperatures will reach their lowest levels for this storm period about Sunday of next week, but then for the next three weeks the conditions generally will make for warmer readings. We believe the general tendency will be for the t e m p e r a t u r e to gradually work upward during this time.

Naturally, contentment with country life was generally expressed, but with interesting variations: "I'd rather live in my smokehouse than stay in town," or "The quickest I can get away (from town) is too long for me.'' Some had tried town life and said they were glad to get back "where there is freedom and enough to e a t " A mountain mother declared that the city is "too binding i n ' A reason very often given for the preference was that "the country is the best place to raise children." One mother wished for better schools for the children, like the town schools, but her conclusion was in favor of the country, because "there's more fresh air, and they can play about and are not as apt to catch contagious diseases" It is an old belief, even among city dwellers, that the country or the village is the ideal place for rearing children. There is much evidence to support this belief. In the rural areas of most of the states composing the national birth registration area the death rate among babies under one year of age is not so high as in the larger towns and cities. The death rate among mothers is also lower. However, the difference in these respects is not so large as might be expected. During Childrens Year, in wartime, this bureau secured measurements and weights for many thousands of children under 6 years old. It found that the children in small towns and rural districts were taller and heavier than those in large communities. The army draft boards found the same thing to be true of the boys who had grown to manhood during the generation preceding. In addition, a larger percentage of men from the towns and cities had defects which would be a handicap in civil life- However, here again there was not a great deal to choose between the city and country groups; in both, the percentage of men rejected was so large as to indicate a serious need for more intelligent child care in country as well as in city homes- The number of deaths among country mothers and babies and the number of uncorrected defects among children brought up in the country is undoubtedly much larger than it would be if skilled medical care were more accessible. Epidemics of acute disease like diphtheria, when once started, are especially severe in the country, because quarantine is not well enforced- Other diseases like tuberculosis and malaria and hookworm make great headway because they are not diagnosed in time, and because sanitation is neglected. Thus there is much need for health nurses in the rural districts. They are needed both for emergencies and for the carrying of information to the homes on ways of keeping children well. One of the mothers whom the bureau staff visited said she preferred the country because "folks in town have to eat canned goods. The country's free and easy; you can raise anything you need." But the bureau found, in some of the country regions which it studied- that the people did not really produce the quantity of green vegetables and fruit and milk and eggs which their children needed. There is no doubt that the city has more bad conditions to overcome and more precautions to take on account of the closeness of its homes. So far as figures show, the country still leads in general healthfulness- But the city is pressing it closely in the race, through its community health measures- However, there are signs that the country is "speeding up' in this important competition. Let the race go on! New Embroideries Offered in the Art Shops By Ethel Di HAa yyadc n ^ A Forethought for the Summer Porch Lets plan for.-the sunporch thlB morning. There are so many inexpensive things we can have if we do them ourselves, and then we will have the full value out of the charming nook. Women are always creative, and if they will realize this fact there is more pleasure and happiness in store for them.

When walls are bare, a room will always seem dull, says Mrs. P. Ward in Michigan Farmer. Good pictures give a home-like and not merely a houselike appearance to walls. They a r e a high interpretation of the simplest t r u t h s and most commonplace things of liije. To stimulate & love of and a knowledge of good picturess in a child is doing much toward rounding out its life. I t means much to ourselves, our family and to our friends, who visit us, to have good pictures, and, like all good things, pictures a r e made to be shared. We can give pictures to others as gifts at all seasons of the year and gladden and mature their Ivies by doing so. Over good pictures one can ponder and study them and look upon them many time*—discovering new excellencies and new beauties each time. I t is not a normal person, when we find someone who does not like good pictures. But often such person has net been roused to an appreciation of what pictures have to give to enrich their lives. Pictures make out lives much more restful and colorful, and together with books and music, have the power to t u r n a house into a home. They create an oasis of beauty and great peace in a restless world. A good picture is not an expenditure in any real sense, but an investment which pays large dividends, while retaining the principal almost intact. The right , travel, the first thing I look for in a hotel room are pictures on the walls. If they a r e of good taste, my stop is much more pleasant and less lonely. Since there are hundreds of thousands of prints of good pictures many of which may be had for fifty cents the writer will be glad to answer inquiries about them if a stamped, addressed envelope is sent and will endeavor to locate the pictures that will meet your needs.—Mrs. P. Ward. Bran Muffin* Two cups bread flour, 2 cups bran, 2 cups sour milk, 1 egg, ½ cup sugar, 1 teaspoon soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 2 teaspoons salt, 1 tablespoon shortening. Mix and sift the dry ingredients except the bran. Add the bran and mix thoroughly. Mix the milk and the beaten egg and add them slowly to the dry ingredients. Add the melted shortening last. Bake 25 to 30 minutes in a hot over (400 degrees F.). If sweet milk is used instead of sour milk, omit the soda and use 5 teaspoons of baking powder instead of 1. This makes about 15 medium sized muffins. Tomato Jelly Salad Stew and strain canned tomatoes.

Quite a nice way is to have half way curtains of a rather intense color placing them so they are head high when you are seated. The very best quality of cheesecloth takes dye beautifully, and simple hems in colored wools prove most attractive. The porch swing, chaise longue or settee must have a plain cover. Taffy color with the seams bound with peacock blue bias binding is a most unusual combination, and will prove a fitting background for gay pillows as well as summer dresses. The table cover may be of the same with a simple design in quite large cross stitch while the table lamp can go a step further and have a gay pleated shade of glazed chinz or the imported paper that so closely follows the designs of the English material. On the wall we will hang a graceful basket, perhaps of the deep blue, containing a jar full of flowers from our own garden. J u s t outside the screen door is another basket of weatherproof green.

Sleepy-head: "Pagy 96, Ma'am." S E L F I S H T H O U G H T S Today my mother said to me, "Co to the store and get some tea." "Oh, Ma," said I with an angry' frown, "The store is such a long way down— My feet, they ache an awful deal, And when I walk it makes me squeal." Then mother .said, "All right, my lad," Then walked away—-I felt ueal glad. Later on she called and said- - "Co and get a loaf of bread, While on your way some ice-cream too, A quart and just all of it for you." "Gee whi/.z, Morn. I'll go right now And run as fast as I know how." "You little imp," burst from my ma, "What a changing boy you are— Now go and rest your brainless had Upon the pillows on your bed." I cried and cried, but of no use, It taught me not to be a goose. If I'd obeyed her at the first The ice-cream would have quenched my thirst. —Katheryn Antol. McBride, Mich.

'Oh, dat was nuthin', hon. Dat was on'y de gent from the furniture store collectin' his easy payments'." This department is conducted in the interest of our boys and girls.

Wn*n Victoria Was Q*««a There is a return to favor of the colors and fabrics popular in th« days of Queen Victoria. Deep ecru linen with stiff legged animals and birds of filet crochet was used for Irish linen, with the colored thread pear to be a fine colonial home. The house is designed for a 50 foot corner lot, although it could be used on a 75-foot interior lot if desired. The first and second floor plans are essentially alike, the general idea being to have a compact scheme, utilizing every bit of space as is done in modern apartment construction, at the same time giving the freedom of the individual home. The lower apartment is entered door leading straight from the piazza into the living room which is 10 by 2.).6 ft. There are two doors from the living room, one which leads to the kitchen and a long hall to the rear of the house, and another which leads to the basement stairs, also upstairs. Four small bedrooms are situated n t « T •JCCOMO Fkooe « i « t L A t in the back of the house, and two of these may be combined into one of large room if desired. The corner bedrooms have two windows each insuring good cross ventilation. Four spacious cfosets are provided, one for each room. The kitchen is 11.6 by 12 ft. and is insured good light through large double windows facing the piazaa and a single window at the head of the stairs which lead to the basement. Starfrs to the upper apartment are provided just inside the rear entrance which is off the kitchen. The upper apartment is entered from the center door, also from the rear entrance, and is planned on the same lines as the lower apartment. A center partition in the basement divides this into two sections, each entered by its own flight of stair* so that, if necessary, the two basements can be kept entirely separate.

"i| "••* 'E , ' V ' " A. ,<„•', •*, *V* '<%<: Fertilizing Oats (or Yield and Quality Oats at best are generally one of the least profitable of farm crops, but they are doubly unprofitable when yields are l o w from one cause er another. The "high cost of low production" is therefore greatly emphasized in the oats crop. It takes tfce same amount of labor and seed whether the yield per acre is 35 bushels or 70. A gTeat many Michigan farmers are finding that one way to get high oats yields is by the proper use of commercial fertilizers. The use of 125 to 200 pounds of fertilizer often results in increases in yield from five to t w e n t y bushels. The increase in yield, however, is not the only beneficial effect from fertilization. Improved quality, as =^ indicated by a plumper gram, a greater weight per bushel, and earlier maturity, i^ another benefit from fertilizer*. Karlier matuity means frevdom from the diseases, blight rust, etc., that sometimes overtakes the crop in the two weeks preceding harvest An added advantage from fertilizing oats is obtained when clover is seeded A successful stand of red clover depends upon many factors. An acid soil must be limed for success with most legumes. Many clover failures, however, occur because of a lack of phosphorus. Two essentials of clover success are lime and phosphorus. Do Feeding Floors Pay? By W. G, KAISER Agricultural Engirt IF you want to know what a feeding floor is worth, the farmer who owns one can best tell you. I have talked to a great many and have not yet found a fanner who, after using a feeding floor, for even a short time, would care to do without it. He may not be able to tell you exactly how much feed it saved him, on the ground. A cinder or grave! base is not necessary. For making a concrete floor, concrete mixed in proportions of one sack of port land cemeat to 3 cu. ft. of sand to 3 cu. ft. of pebbles or crushed rock is recommended. The *apd should be clean and pass through a screen with 'A inch mesh. Pebbles should also be The effect* of complete and incomplete fertilizers upon tomatoes at the N. J.

Her owner is Samuel Odell of Shelby, Michigan, The former state holder of the Junior two championsion is Corinne of Roycroft 247303, who held the record since Oct. 30, 1912, when she produced 640.90 pounds of butter-fat. Rostelle calved in time to be entered in the advanced class and qualified for a silver medal by a wide margin, the requirement for a cow of her age being 500.8 lbs. of butter- fat. She was in the fifty pound list for eight consecutive months. Her high month was her fourth month on test when she produced over 70 pounds of butter-fat. This cow's sire is You'll Do's Duchess' Oxford 158393, which is a grandson of the famous gold and silver medal bull, Imported Oxford You'll Do. Rostelle's dam is Rostelle 4 0 5 7 9 2 , who has a silver medal record of 543 lbs- of fat as a junior two-year-old. She is a daughter of the Silver Medal bull, Noble Sensational Lad. Her sire is Jacoba's Eminent 111111 and her dam is Ginger Babe 285257. A Michigan Jersey Makes Great Record—Milked Only Twice a Day On Former Records She Has Won Three Medals Jacoba's Golden Melia Ann 374,- 745, a Jersey cow owned by C. E. George of Union City, Michigan, has recently completed a most creditable record. She started test as a mature cow and in one year produced 12,903 rbs. of milk and 767.47 lbs- of butter fat, on twice a day milking This Michigan Jersey appeared in the fifty pound list -for eight consecutive months and in the second month of her lactation period she missed the 90 pounds of butter-fat smash by only three-tenths of one pound As a senior two year old she won a silver medal by producing 554.13 lbs. of fat, and meeting the calving requirements. Again as a senior two year old she won both a gold and silver medal by producing 730.10 pounds of butter-fat and again m e e t i n g the calving requirements. She has now one tested daughter.

It can he placed directly on the ground. and the pebbles and »and«An usually be found rig*ht on the farm. but he is satisfied that it is worth much more than it costs. Estimates of feed saved will vury from io to 50% depending on the location of the feed yard and the season of the year. The amount of loss is probably in direct proportion to the depth of the mud in the feed lot. Two years ago I visited the farm of a prominent farmer in Lyons County, Iowa, and seeing a concrete feeding floor along one side of his hog house, I asked him what it was worth to him. After a few moments of mental arithmetic, he replied he would not take "a dollar an acre for it." On further questioning I found that he meant it was worth more than $160 a year to him or one dollar oa every acre in his 160 acre farm. His floor was 16 feet wide by 50 feet long and bad cost a mere trifle. It would easily accommodate 50 fattening hogs. "Last fall," he states, "I was feeding a carload of shoats. It started to rain and before long I could not find a place in my hog lot, on which to feed them, although I changed the feeding place a number of times. I finally got tired carrying corn all over the place and seeing it trampled in the mud so I built the floor you see there." Thousands of feeding floors have been built in the last few years. In most cases the farmer and his sons or hired help do the job themselves as a feeding floor is one of the s i m p l e s t i m p r o v e m e n t s that can be made. It is nothing more than a number of sidewalks laid side by side. The first step is to clear the ground where the floor is to be built. This space should be leveled off. Concrete can be placed directly clean and vary in size from J4 of an inch up to il/j inches. There is another point that I cannot stress too much—that is using good water when mixing concrete. If the water is tit for drinking purposes, it is fit for using in concrete—otherwise do not use it as there is likely to be a reaction that will weaken whatever you may be building. If I were building a feeding floor I would make it 4 in. thick placing the full thickness at one time and' using the same mixture throughout. A wood float should be used for finishing as it produces a smooth surface, yet one that is gritty enough to furnish a good foothold for the hogs in slippery weather. After the concrete has hardened several hours, it is a good plan to cover it with several inches #of damp earth and keep this covering on for a week or ten .days. The earth should be kept moist by sprinkling. Such a covering prevents concrete from being dried out by the sun and wind and allows it to harden properly. It is a good plan to make the floor in sections from 6 to 10 ft. square so as to provide expansion and contraction joints. By dividing the floor in sections this way, it is easier to construct. For forms, 2-by-4's set on edge and held in place by stakes are suitable. Most farmers like to have a curb around the o u t s i d e of the floor to prevent the hogs from shoving the feed off. This curb should be extended about a foot below ground level...It will then prevent hogs from rooting under the floor and will also keep the rats from burrowing beneath it. Selecting a Breed When so many are starting in the dairy business or are planning' to do so, the question of choosing a breed is very much in the minds of a large number. The breeds have differences and they have things in common. One thing which every breed has in common with all other breeds is that there are good cows and inferior cows in every breed. There are cows in every breed whose ability to produce is so limited that she could not return a profit under any management that might be provided. Such being the case it is more important to choose good cows than it is to decide in some fanciful matter relative to the breed to be chosen. The choosing of a breed is a practical problem. The matter of sentiment should not be allowed to play to prominent a part in the selection. Oftentimes when we think we have a distinct preference for one breed it is because we have seen more of that breed than any other or because we have been influenced by something spectacular performed by someone who had to do with a herd of that breed. The point we would make here is that one should not let his prejudice have any undue influence in selecting a breed when such choice might result to the detriment of the one making the selection. A principle we have emphasized before will bear repeating here, is that one choosing a breed will find many advantages in choosing the same breed as the majority of other men in his locality are keeping- This will often provide a home market for surplus stock. It will, in many cases, afford him an opportunity to co-operate with his neighbors in making sales and in using the same sire or in exchanging sires. There are a few cases where the market for milk from the dairy may be considered to be a factor in deciding upon a breed. This is but one of the practical aspects. There are a few hospitals or certain city markets that demand milk of a certain character or quality. However, one just starting in the business is not likely to meet with any pronounced success in this line unless the conditions are very favorable to him. It is usually best to go slow in developing the business with any breed. An unsatisfactory experience with a f e w animals of one breed should not prejudice one against all animals of that breed. One going into the dairy business should consider the selection of a dairy breed with the same openmindednea* that a merchant decides upon the color and quality of the clothing which he is to offer for sale. A merchant may have a distinct preference for black clothes, yet j he does not refuse to sell clothes that j are gray or brown or other colors. The merchant handles the goods that are best for his business interests. So are the farmers more and more adopting the plan of selecting the breeds that are best for their business interest. . 0 Good Care and Feed for Cow at Calving Time Cows that are to calve during the winter and spring months should be provided with a comfortable and well bedded box stall. It is imperative that the bowels are moving freely before calving time. Laxative feeds such as a mixture of two parts bran and one part linseed meal should be fed. If the cow still remains more or less constipated give a drench of Epsom salts, or a dose of one quart of linseed oil. A number of troubles which usually occur about calving time can be prevented by proper feeding and care before freshening. During calving time the cow should not be disturbed except in the case of abnormal birth. During the first days after calving she must be protected from cold and her drinking water should be given at a lukewarm temperature. The vitality of the cow is very low at this time, and careful and thorough herdsmanship is necessary- The feed must be rather limited in amount- Good quality legume hay, a little silage, and bran mashes make a satisfactory ration. Watch the high producing cow for milk fever- and if it occurs resort to the air treatment- A litle time is all that t takes to figure out a good balanced ration. It will be found to be a good investment of time when the increased milk flow is measured. Cows in milk need plenty of protein and mineral matter. These can be obtained within the limits of economic production. A good cow is a good worker, and a good worker needs plenty to eat. Alfalfa hay at will, silage, and grain in accordance wth the amount of milk given should be fed. Each cow should be fed ndividually. A herdsroan can estimate the amount of milk and the condition of the cow- The grain can be increased as long as the milk flow increases- If the cow starts to put on flesh, it is an indication of too much feed. Succulence is necessary- This can be obtained by corn siUfee in winter and pasture in the summer. If the grain mixture is too heavy a bulky feed like wheat bran, or dried beet pulp should be added.—B. W. Fairbanks, Colorado Agricultural College. •• 0 The next day and the next, in his serious manner, he asked the t a m e question, and the nurse tearfully said to the c o o l r r ^ T h a t child is t o o good for this world OUR POU PARTMENT 3535 S i m p l e l a d i g e a t i o n The poultry flock quite often suffers from simple indigestion which is frequently mistaken for some more serious disorder, although it must not be supposed that this trouble is not serious in itself. It generally oc- _ _ curs as the result of overfeeding or from feeding tt ration too high in cert a i n elements or f r o m a lack of green feed which seems to be more or less essential to the good health of the hen. Without actually appearing to be sick the birds will sometimes appear dull and listless with litle or no appetite. Sometimes the appetite is abnormal and the fowls will eat large quantities of sand and grit. Often either diarrhea of constipation is present. In treating this trouble the ordinary sound rules of hygiene should be observed. The house and feeding utensils should ,be perfectly clean and sanitary and as much sunlight as possible should be provided. The water supply should be clean and fresh and treated with enough permanganate of potash to turn it wine red. We note that some authorities do not advocate the use of this sub- •stan.ee, but w e have used it consistently and with good results. The ration should be well balanced and made as appetizing as possible The addition of considerable quantities of fine charcoal to the mash will be found very effective. This is essential. Charcoal plays an important part in the feed of a healthy fowl and is particularly valuable in the case of any digestive disorders as it prevents the development of gas and fermentation in the digestive tract. The use of a good commercial tonic is recommended or a very satisfactory formula can be prepared with the assistance of the local druggist. A combination of one pound of powdered gentian, one-fourth pound of ginger, one-fourth pound of saltpeter and one-half pound iron sulphate, thoroughly mixed and added to the mash at the, rate of two or three tablespoonsful to 10 quarts of dry mash will be found very effective in restoring the birds to normal health. Indigestion should be treated immediately when first discovered, because, while not serious in itself, it may lead to other and worse troubles. It can be prevented by careful feeding and by keeping a constant watch over the appetite of the flock. However, it is bound to occur on occasion and the simple treatment above outlined will ordinarily cure it in relatively short order. Beware of a Draft on the Fowl* When the fowls act dumpish and show a discharge from the nostrils, accompanied by heavy breathinglook for a crack in the .wall or a hole in the roof, causing drafts to blow on the fowls, says American Poultry Advocate. Perhaps not all of the fowls will become afflicted in this manner, but this should be no argument against drafts being the cause of the trouble. Some particular hen or hens may be more susceptible to the influence of drafts and dampness than others. Roup or canker is not so much the result of exposure of fowls during the winter weather as it is subjecting them to drafts during the night. It is frequently the case that roosting near a very small crack, or a little ventilation at the top of the house, causes the owner to wonder why and how his fowls become sick, despite the fact that they seemingly have the best of care and feed- Drafts of air on the fowls at night should be avoided above everything else, if they are to be kept in perfect condition, or even in a thrifty and profitable condition- Crowding the hens on the roost render bad conditions. The poultryman can not be too careful in these particulars as to the manner of handling the fowls in disagreeable weather, for healthful conditions at night are just as important as in the day time. fc =¾ Double Returns From Home Garden M"6st of us begin work on our home gardens with the enthusiasm generated by the long anticipated release of energy which hus been closely restricted during the winter months. By mid-summer, most of the joy has disappeared and, in the majority of cases, so has the garden, buried under a blanket of weeds, eaten up with insects or just naturally gone to seed through neglect. But the home garden properly started and attended for the first few weeks can be a thing of joy and a source of satisfaction throughout the summer For one thing, no vegetables taste quite so sweet, nor half so tender as the products of our own garden, and they are essential to the well-arranged diet. Experts have figured that during the year, each person should eat one-half bushel of string beans, 50 pounds of beets or parsnips, 20 pounds of cabbage, 60 pounds of carrots, 35 pounds of greens, 50 ears of corn, 40 pounds of onions, one-half bushel of green peas or green lima beans, 15 pounds of squash, "0 pounds of turnips, 3 bushels of potatoes, and 55 pounds of tomatoes. While the average city home gardener will hardly be able to produce everything in that list, it is a l w a y s surprising what can be accomplished when the garden layout is carefully planned, plenty of fertilizer applied, and weeds kept out by thorough cultivation. Perhaps the most striking results in the garden are caused by fertilizers. They are striking because of the way in which the output is increased per given amount of labor and land. Garden crops are grown on an extremely intensive scale, the average gardener always crowding them as closely as he can and more closely than he should. Generous quantities of plant food are therefore needed, and when supplied, produce strong, luxuriant growth. A fertilizer containing four or five per cent of ammonia, 8 or 10 per cent of phosphoric acid, and 4 or 5 per cent potash will prove most satisfactory for the general run of garden crops under ordinary conditions. A liberal quantity, say 25 pounds over an area 20 by 50 feet in size, might well be broadcasted before planting, followed by applications in the row during the growing season. Small applications of nitrate of soda oftentimes do wonders, especially for the leafy crops. That Prof- James E- Rice and his Committee on the Protection of the Poultry Industry knew what they were about in working for, and securing a tariff on eggs and Qgg products imported into this country that would protect the U- S. produced is plain to be seen F i g u r e s showing importations of e g g s during 1922 and 1923, issued by the Department of Commerce shows that there were 589,447 dozen less e g g s in the shell imported during the first ten months of 1923 as compared with the same period for 1 9 2 2 ; 923,905 dozens came into the country during the first ten months of 1922 while during the same period in 1923 only 334,458 dozens were imported. Dried and frozen e g g s showed a corresponding decrease in 1923, falling off about 3,000,000 pounds compared with the importations for the corresponding period of the year before. 0 He Didn't Take It A sergeant in one of the camps during the late war was in charge of a detail of prisoners. He received orders to that everyone took a bath on certain days. Upon asking the various prisoners whether t h e y had followed the order, he received replies in the affirmative.

HASKINS, HOWARD CITY , if Mr. James H. Ha*kin» of Howard City, who was a member of Co. K-, 150th Penna. Vols-, and who now has reached t h e ripe old a g e of oO years, will fi»6 us a s t o r y on " M e m o r i e s of Lincoln and wly Ciril W a r Service," which will he run in serial form in ibis newspaper. The editor appreciates securing this feature and feels oar many readers will enjoy reading1 the experiences from week to week. History of the Regiment The 150th Pennsylvania, also called Second Bucktails, was one of the fighting regiments and was organized at Philadelphia and Harrisburg in August and September, 1862, and mustered out J u n e 23, 1865. It was commanded by Cols. L a n g h o m e W i ster, H e n r y S. Huidekoper a n d George W. Jones in succession. CoL Wister was an officer in the Old Bucktails. Arriving in Washington, Company K of this regiment was stationed at the Soldiers' Home and the White House, where it remained all during its service as President Lincoln's bodyguard. The percentage of killed of the regiment was far above the average. At Gettysburg it lost 29 killed, 151 wounded and 84 missing out of 417 taken into action. Both Wister and Huidekoper were severely wounded in that battle. Its last battle was Dabney's Mill, Feb. 5, 1865. It belonged to Doubleday's Division, First Corps, and lost 112 killed and 95 from disease, etc. Its total of killed and wounded was 431, and 38 of its members died in Confederate prisons.— John McElroy, editor National Tribune, former national commander of the Grand Army of the Republic. My enlistment in the service of the Union army was dated Aug. 15, 1862. We left Meadville, Penna., on August 26 and arrived in Harrisburg, the same state, on August 27, a f U r riding from Elmira, N. Y., to Harrisburg in box cars. We found Camp Curtin alive with men and boys going forward to answer the call of President Lincoln for three hundred thousand more men. We were mastered into t h e United States service August 30, 1862. On September 2 we drew our uniforms and on the following d a y our arms and accoutrements. We were also given our number as regiment and company a t this time—Company K of the 150th Pennsylvania volunteers, afterwards known as t h e "Second Bucktails." On September 5 we started for Washington and while marching through Baltimore, Md., heard such remarks as this: "Lee will be in Washington before you will." We arrived in Washington, September 6, having run through from Baltimore very slowly for fear of tracks being torn u p ; we got through safely. We had our breakfast at the Soldiers' Retreat and it was the first meal I did not relish after leaving home. We were ordered to Marengo Hill to camp with our sister regiment, the 149th—also Bucktails, but through some mistake we marched away past where we were expected to stop. After discovering the error, we marched back to the Retreat, near the depot of the Baltimore railway, where we arrived about dark, having made our first march in a hot September sun without anything to eat and very little to drink. Some ate supper, but I could eat nothing. (To be continued next week) OH THE RIGHT ROAD BUT MAKING UTTLE MtOGRESS Widow and Children of Deceased Declarant Given New Status Washington, D. C.—The age of a declaration of intention will have no bearing upon a petition for naturalization filed by the widow or children of a deceased declarant under a recent administrative construction by Secretary of Labor, J a m e s J. Davis. The Naturalization Regulations have been amended so as to abrogate the provision requiring a widow or child of a deceased declarant to produce a declaration of intention not less than two nor more than seven years old. The only showing that a petitioner need make under section 4 of the act of June 29, 1906, is, T H E HUSBAND MADE A DECLARATION OF DETENTION AND DURING ITS LIFE DIED W I T H O U T BECOMING A CITIZEN. The son or daughter need only show, after attaining majority, in the petition the fact that it was the father of the petitioner who died a declarant during the minority of the petitioner. The petition is not to be considered as being predicated upon the deceased alien's declaration, but up t h e fact that such declaration was made and the declarant died before completing his declaration. That fact of itself is a sufficient basis for a petition by the widow, or a child who was a minor at the time of the father's death. ——————o Michigan Bell Telephone Company will start work on its new $500,000 exchange building at Grand Rapids soon.

S. Eats 50 Cents in Food Each Day Washington,—Every time the nation sits down to a meal, it costs about $16,000,000 in grocer and butcher bills. It takes about $49,000,000 a day, or an average of almost 50 cents for each man, woman and child to fill the country's market basket. How It Goe« About one-third of this amount is spent for bread, potatoes, fruits, sugar and other food of vegetable origin. The other two-thirds goes for meat, fish, eggs, butter, cheese, lard, milk and the like. The people of the United States spend for food about $1,500,000,000 a month or $18,000,000,000 a year, according to estimates from the department of agriculture just published in the Scientific American. If all the milk consumed in one day nation in a single day were rolled into one, they would make a monster egg 36 feet long and 24 feet high. There are two and a half billion eggs used in a year. Big Milk Bottle If allthe milk consumed in one day was poured in one bottle, this bottle would have to be 385 feet high and 152 feet in diameter. In a year's time, about 1 0 ¼ billion gallons of milk are used in one form or another In a single day, there is consumed 1,095,890 pounds of cheese, 2,849,- 315 quarts of ice cream, 4,383,561 pounds of b u t t e r and 6,849,315 eggs, according to the estimates. o Fifty-eight pure bred bulls will be purchased soon by farmers in Dickinson county in the campaign started to rid the county of scrubs.

He has seen the state spend around $35,000 annually for postage with which to conduct its business by mail, and on the other hand the letters he has received have carried upwards of ten millions of dollars during the course of a year. Mr. Loring formerly resided in Owosso. Lansing, Mich.,—Harry Knowlton, formerly of Pewamo, but now at the head of the traffic department of the state administrative board, has figured out another way of saving money for the taxpayers. He has figured out a schedule of routine for gravel and supply shipments to the highway department for the coming season that will not only eliminate thousands of dollars in demurrage collections by railroads, b u t his schedule also provides for prompt and thoroughly efficient handling of those commodities. Last year the state paid in unnecessary demurrage rates for cars carrying highway material the sum of about $4,000. At the rate demurrage was charged that sum represents 8,000 idle days for 4,000 cars of material. While some of the cars were unavoidably idle, it is the general opinion t h a t the majority of the cars were negligently so. Under Knowlton's new routine the traffic men in charge of the equipment and the railway men handling the cars will have two reports daily on the progress and location of the state material in transit, and if those measures do not eliminate the great overcharge for demurrage some new faces are likely to appear on the payrolls affected. There is a decrease in Michigan of deaths from diabetes, says Dr. R. M. Olin, state health commissioner. Insulin, the new discovery, may be r e - sponsible. I t s use was quite general last year in Michigan as against 650 for 1922. The year 1922 marked the high point in four years of increasing mortality from diabetes. In 1919, 559 persons died, in 1920 it was 577, and in 1921 there were 586 deaths. Of the 633 persons who died from diabetes last year 328 were women; 305 were men. Mortality from the disease was most severe for persons between 65 and 69. Fifty men and women respectively, coming within this group, died o,f the disease. Thirty-nine men died between the ages of 70 and 74, while 39 women died between the ages of 55 and 59. Relatively few minors die of diabetes, as the 50 deaths, representing mortality of both sexes under 20 years of age, revealed last year. Did you know t h a t : — General George McDougal was the first adjutant general Michigan had following her organization as the territory of Michigan. There are 768 insurance companies of all classifications in Michigan and t h a t the state insurance department's receipts for the last fiscal year were $1,925,036.70, which was obtained from fees such as agents, solicitors and adjusters' licenses, etc. Ray Durham, deputy state labor commissioner, has resigned to open offices in Iron Mountain, and that John V. French, ex-mayor of Port Huron, Bucceeds Durham. It is easy to run a newspaper. All a fellow has to do is to be able to write poems, discuss the tariff and money questions, umpire a baseball game, report a wedding, saw wood, describe a fire so that the readers will shed th*ir wraps, make $1 do the work of $10, shine at a dance, measure calico, abuse the liquor habit, test whisky, subscribe to charity, go without meals, attack free silver, wear diamonds, invent advertisements, sneer at snobbery, overlook scandal, appraise babies, delight potato raisers, minister to the afflicted, heal the disgruntled, fight to a finish, set type, mold public opinion, sweep out the office, speak at prayer meetings, and stand in with everybody and everything. o Chinese Wife Too Gay; Husband Asks Divorce In 1905, when C. W. Loring identified himself with the office of secretary of state and as mailing clerk in t h a t office, he was handling on an average 150 letters daily. In 1923 he was hopping around under a San Francisco.—The east is east, and the west is west, and the customs of the two should never be mixed. Tom Wing, Chinese business man, gravely informed Judge Graham in his divorce suit against Tom Mak Shee, who from her husband's testimony, appears to have been a very much Americanized Chinese flapper. "I marry her July 15, 1922, Hongkong," explained Tom Wing. "She then velly fine China girl. Take her to Amelica, two months she allee samee Melican girl. Step out allee time. She telle me keep baby, she have good time. Then, she go way."

Surgeon's Skill to Give Baby a Mouth Ossining, N. Y.—One of the most unusual operations in the history of surgery was performed here when Dr. Charles G. Sweet gave a sixweeks- old baby boy a mouth. The baby was born with a formation of skin and membrane where the opening for the mouth should have been. In addition to this defect, there was noToof to the mouth. Dr. Sweet formed the roof of the mouth by forcing the bones into normal position. He will perform another operation within a month to form lips for the child. This will be done by molding the flesh.

A Story of Michigan in Civil War Days '*"•'*'••<*<!>*\'iV»\«r«\i:/«o»\";>A\:./«C/^••/^.n r«A ./aweC-eWsv r.'eOeOeC/'eV,: "It's gospel truth I am giving you," avowed the boy, his eyes sparkling, his stiff red hair standing forward with resentment. "Here you've been for weeks all alone, scorned and sneered at by ever blessed female vulture in the country, hooted at by dirty-faced young-ones, and made the slanderous talk of every tea table on Hemlock Run—and for what? For nothing you did or are to blame for unless it was marrying such a c<> per-faced Union-hater as Thornton Clang—" "Jon*! Jack! sucn horrid language :!" covering her ears. "I'll not listen another instant." "Staff cotton in your trans then, silly," he jeered. "Fm not going to be mealy-mouthed, Sis. May as well tell the truth and shame the devil. I liked old Thornt when he came a wooing; he seemed nice enough then. He was all the same careful not to let daddy know his principles, because he knew if he had he'd got the grand bounce the first time he darkened the door. Pshaw, I'm rambling like some old hen-huzzy. You know as well as I do, Rachie, that he hasn't used you white about this war business." "Hush, Jack." A little shiver ran through the woman. She knew her brother was telling only the truth and it probed many tender spots as he meant it should. "What other woman," said Jack, "would have stood by her man when he showed the white feather in time of war? Why, you—" "Stop, Jack, stop right where you are!" trilled Rachel, quivering through every fiber of her body. "I know more about Thornton than you do you or anybody else—you can tell me nothing. He is a good man and as brave as a lion. Whatever his faults he is not a poltroon and you shall not call him one. I know—" "There, there, Sis," soothed blunt Jack, "I didn't mean exactly that Thornt is a coward. I don't think myself t h a t he is; but he has acted very much like one in his treatment of you." "I have not complained, Jack," her brown eyes shining with a moist light. "Of course you haven't, It isn't in you, Rachie, to complain. You would lie down and let Thornton walk over you and smile while your ribs were cracking just because it was 'dear Thornt!' That may be all right, but I have got something to say about how my siater is used and I'm going to say it without fear or favor. Luckily Thornton has been rounded into Uncle Sam's sheep pen, and he's got now to fish or cut b a i t I think he'll do the latter, otherwise nobody'11 ever speak a good word for him again." The boy got up and walked about the room, touselling his red hair, slapping his slouch hat against the chairs by way no doubt of emphasizing his remarks. Presently he caught the glitter of a tear on the white check of Rachel. He sprang to her at once. "Now, Rachie dear, don't take this to heart," he soothed. "I am going to be both father and brother to you hereafter—yes and mother too," laughing. "I want you to understand that I wouldn't hurt a hair of your goldie head, or your feelings for a ton of 8hinplasters." With both arms about her neck he held her tight while she sobbed out her grief as a babe might on the bosom of a loving mother. "I s'pose I'm a bnite," proceeded Jack, "but I w a n t to see old Thornt changed for the better, and we can make the riffle, you and I together, little sister mine." "Oo-goo-goo!" crowned Thornton J r . "That's right, young feller," laughed Jack, glancing over at baby. "You know a thing or two if your head is as bald as a bat's and you have to gum it for a living. It's this way, Rachie," turning again to his sister. ' T h o r n t is in a fair way to redeem himself. He will write home and your replies must contain loyal seed. I l l drop an idea or two into your letters. We'll work the thing gradually, so that when your old man comes marching home the combination of wifely devotion and rebel bullets will make p. true blue Yankee of him. Then therell be joy throughout all Israel! Ah, but the rejoicing W}H be from the housetops! Now, being full of thought and victuals I must leave you. But say—what word shall I take to Thornton?" "Shall you go there today. Jack?" "Sure I am going there. Sis." Rachel gave him instructions. Kissing his sister good-by Jack drove whistling away, and Yankee Doodle the burden of his happy song- C H A P T E R XIII Tb« C«tt*ertpt P«« When the marshal drove away from the borne of the Clangs that night hi* HwilliU were of the pleasantest Baebel had called him Tom at parting sad the glow of the old trysting time MI him. he would have hit rival safety tht daw of the *afk, sftar Joo«rtaMpwoQldh*T* Wbat be had pUaaed f j | | t • * h* fa** tatdlUMt to him as a man, yet the old saw, "all is fair in love and war," continually occurred to salve his conscience. He had patriotic Jack on his side, so that with Clang arrested and disgraced half the battle would be won. The horses trotted at a brisk clip. One shied suddenly. Tom tightened his hold on the reins and spoke to them. "Steady there, steady, old boys," drawing a taut grip on the reins. "Hello! That you, Tom?" A voice from the road addressed him. It was easy to recognize the i^ruff tones of Darwin Forbes. It seemed that the man had preceded him to the vicinity of the Clang home. Woodrow was not thinking gently of this man, even though he had consented to use him as a tool. And yet, but for the low fellow's assault on Mrs. Clang, he would not have had the pleasure of that night ride with the beautiful Rachel. Forbes came to the carriage. "You, Forbes?" "Hist, old man!" warned the other in a low voice. "Hold yer hosses and listen to me." "Very good." "You took the lady home, which I meant to do myself you know. I ain't complaining, however. D'ye care to round up one and wait till later fur others, Tom'>" "Which one?" "Him," turning his thumb toward' the Clang cabin. "Of course. Where is he now?" "With his woman in the house." "What, he there while I talked with his wife! By George—" 'Not too fast, old man," interrupted Forbes. "He wasn't there then, but he's in there now all the same." "Then jump right in, Darwin, and we'll go back and nab the scamp!" exclaimed the marshal, cramping the carriage for his friend. A low laugh answered this move. "You tried that once, Tom. You know how it works to tackle a man in his castle. Not pleasant work, eh° Not me for that. I know old Thornt. He'd die r%ht there if he had to. Outside, in the dark, it's different. He'll be on the lookout too—in the house. Out here he'll drop like ripe fruit into our arms. Understand, old chap'1 "Perhaps." "Hitch the ponies and come up the road with me." Woodrow drew outside under a tree and made the animals secure after which he joined the other in the road. The two men walked up the road to a clump of hazel bushes. "Here's the place," whispered Forbes, pulling on the sleeve of his companion. "You take that side, I'll take this and he's our meat as soon as he comes along." The two nvn dropped into the shadows. They had not long to wait before the steps of the, householder were heard approaching. Each man in hiding braced himself. One minute thus, then both made a qnick spring. The unsuspecting Clang fought his enemies like a wounded grizzly. Forbes had come prepared. He dashed a mess of some hot powder into the face ,>T the conscript. Half suftocated, and quite blinded, the rn^.n fell an easy victim. Fortunately the marshal had his handcuffs—he seldom traveled without them—and these he snapped on the wrists of the struggling man. Forbes had drawn a pistol. During the struggle this was discharged, effecting little damage, however. Forbes dropped away into the darkness. He would be useful in future work for the government and felt it best to efface himself for a time. "Come in the morning, Forbes," said Woodrow, "I shall want to consult with you then." The betrayer uttered an inaudible, angry rejoinder, disappearing in the gloom. His anger was excited because the marshal had called his name, otherwise the captured man might have remained in ignorance of who his enemy wa?. Woodrow had, however, no thought to favor Forbes. "So!" gasped the prisoner. The carriage rolled away. A lone silence followed. Clang, helpless and in great pain, sagged against the rear of the vehicle and groaned. "May as well take it calmly, Thornt," suggested the marshal. "Don't forget that you have all alon^ invited this sort of thing." Not a word in reply from the prisoner. Silence covered them till the bridge crossing the river nt Logtown was reached. Thr- pain having ir> a measure boated, Clan:: sat up, grating hi^ teeth. "It was Forbes," he «aid slowly. "Yes. it was Forbes," admitted the marshal. "The d—d hound!" "Perhaps, but you might expect i t There's no honor among thieves, the old saw to the contrary notwithstanding. Are you comfortable, old m a n ? " "Quite so—and enjoying myself!" An ironical laugh followed. Woodrow could well understand his prisoner's mood. He made no effort, however, to ease his misery by a soothing word. "Say, Ton Woodrow, do yon know a s protty waflr sntMsttb/ tjotrlsd tht "I reckon I do, Thornt." "Wait before you commit yourself," broke in the other. "I have been a half way decent sort till now. As to my evading government service that is a mere matter of opinion as to its being right or wrong. I never cheated a man out of a cent in my life. As for Forbes, I have been good to him, helping him out of more than one scrape. I paid his fine once to save him from work on the stone pile of Wingdam jail. You see how he has rewarded my foolish kindness. "True, but—" "There are no btfts in this case, Tom. I'll be frank v*ith you." "That's right, Thornt." "Thanks, Now as to my determination. I shall serve Uncle Sam to the bt?st of my ability till this cruel war is over and peace once more reigns between the United States and the C. S. A. The moment I am free I shall seek/mt Forbes and kill him!" There was no excitement in the speaker's manner. The tone of his utterance was displeasing to Woodrow. 'To do that would be an act of folly, Thornton," he remonstrated. "You are now in disgrace only. Should you carry out this plan of yours it would land you in the penitentiary for life, ruin your home—the man isn't worth the price." "My home has been ruined, Tom Woodrow," whispered Clang in a husky voice, at the same time leaning his lips to the ear of his captor. "You have had a hand in that. Don't think I am blind, Man. I know what you are hoping. Rachel has been a good woman, God help her to remain one! If—if—" "Pshaw, man, don't give way to foolish fancies," warned the marshal, chilled at the mental distress of the other. "It is folly to speculate. 1 trust—" "You may t r u s t ! " burst forth Clang in suddenly awakened wrath, "but I will not. I know all you are thinking with respect to Rachel, but, by heaven! Tom Woodrow, if you carry your intentions into effect I shall live long enough to kill you—remember that!" The conscript fell back, relapsing into silence. Woodrow was touched with a feeling akin to fear. He could have rejoiced to hear that Thornton Clang fell in battle. The man was of a revengeful disposition, and might make trouble. The marshal offered no apologies for his part in the capture of his man. As for Forbes, he despised the instrument he had used. Soon the carriage was climbing the last hill outside of Wingdam. The prisoner straightened himself and peered sharply about, his eyes smarting as they regained their seeing powers. "We are almost there." lie mutter-' ed. "Right," sani Woodrow. "You will .-'urn be among your friends—the happy Amscript fathers!" 'It's fun for you. Tom Woodrow," slincking his teeth. "Don't forget what I said about my intentions—I shall kill Forbes first!" The marshal laughed aloud. His affected indifference angered his companion. "It's a laughing vnauev with YOU now, Tom Woodrow. Up yonder the stars are blinking approval of thia night's work. Let your scoundrelism go no further If it does; if she suffers either in mind or body from you, by hades, I'll kill you if it is the last thing I do this side the bottomless pit!" The second outburst of mirth died on the lips of Marshal Woodrow. There could be no mistaking the earnestness and meaning of the speaker. Tom drew his outer coat close to shut out a chill that oppressed him suddenly. He was not feeling well after his night ride, nor had his prisoner proved pn agreeable companion. "Wc are almost there," he said, ignoring the impassioned utterance of his passenger. "If you have any message to leave with me I will see that it is delivered." "I am asking no favors of you, Tom Woodrow." "A self evident fact, yet I am willing to soften this blow to the best of my ability. I have simply done my duty and you know it—that is sufficient for me." "I suppose so." Thornton drew himself together and nursed his wrath in silence. Soon the upper level was reached. If the prisoner had expected to spend the remainder of the night at a hotel he was soon undeceived. Woodrow avoided the main thoroughfare, skirting the town on back streets, fetching up at length before the high stockade of the conscript pen. The usual preliminaries g o n e through with Thornton Clang was turned into the pen, from whence he was to be jnustered, as he himself believed, into the service of the government. The man's right was completely broken. He had little ambition left with which to face the future. To be sure he had ^contemplated surrendering himself, in fact was on his way to do this when captured. His fate would undoubtedly be harder now. In any event he assured himself that he should never again defy Uncle Sam and sneak amid the brakes and swamps* like a runaway negro slave. His handcuffs were removed and he was given a bunk in one of the long barrack sheds. The high stockade lined with guards, precluded ail Hope of escape even had he cared to attempt a strike for freedom which he did not Re was not exactly a deserter since he had not been sworn into the United States atrvioa. Thonton passed a night, appearing next ing looking pale and haggard. There wert no jeers for such as he. In fact ill U' at merit he received was far better than he had reason to expect. Immediately after breakfast the enrolling officer appeared and took down the names of all new arrivals of the previous day. No reference was made to Thornton's previous record as a draft evader. He was permitted to sign the roll without Question. Luckily for his future Thornton was not sworn in that day. The proper officer for t h a t work was expected hourly, however. Until thatrtime the man felt t h a t he was still a civilian even though a drafted man.

S. supreme court declared in a decision sustaining the constitutionality of the New York labor law. A vigorous fight for McAdoo delegates will be waged in Ohio primaries. David L. Rockwell, McAdoo campaign manager, declared recently. Adolfo De La Huerta has abondoned the insurgent forces, of which he has been the supreme chief, the Mexican foreign office reports. This would mean the end of organized southern Mexico. Returns from the president primary in New Hampshire show election of 11 delegates to the Republican national convention pledged to President Coolidge. Kansas and Colorado are also in the list of states now backing him. Although the Swiss government has not made a definite decision regarding Abdul Medjid caliph of the Moslems, it is thought he will be allowed to reside in Switzerland on condition that he refrain from political and religious propaganda. Backed by Dayton and New York capital, an organization to carry passengers over the model airways between Dayton and Washington is in the process of formation. Charles Peter, Salt Lake City, president of the International Mascot Mining Co., Pocatello, Idaho, was held last week in $25,000 bail on a charge of grand larceny, in connection with alleged stock swindlers. William G. McAdoo, candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination, declared that the "crushing defeat administered by Democrats of Missouri to Senator Reed recently, is i (.;rand * a p i d s \ M1^h a striking rebuke for the campaign of personalities he directed against me." .Charging fraud, graft and fradulent misuse of government funds. Amos \V. Woodcock, U. S. district attorney for Maryland, filed suit in federal court against Smith, Hauser & Mclsaac, Inc., of New York, to recover $7,000,000 alleged excess spent in construction of Camp Meade. Income tax returns received up to May 10 in New York show a falling off of $523,407 as compared with returns of a similar date last year. The opium congress, which adjourned last week to meet later in Paris, has brought out the tremendous difficulties in the way of reaching an international agreement which will meet American ideas and really limit the production of opium and its derivatives to medical and scientific needs. Mrs. John MacCormack, wife of the Irish-American singer, and her daughter, Gwen, 15, were sent to a hospital in Lyons, France, suffering from cuts and bruises sustained in the wreck of the Calaia-Moditerranean express. Albert Hall Harris, vice president in charge of corporate relations, will be elected president of the New York Central lines to succeed A. H. Smith, who was killed in a fall from a horse recently. A contract has been entered into between the General Motors Housing Corporation and the Detroit and Northern Michigan Building and Loan association, whereby financial assistance will be rendered by the latter concern in the constructing of 150 six and seven-room dwellings in Flint for General Motors' employes. Each house and lot will cost in the vicinity of $6,000. The building and loan association will loan approximately $3,000 on each house. The purchaser will pay 20 per cent of the total cost and the General Motors Corporation will provide the balance in the form of a second mortgage. Stockholders of the Michigan Sugar Company have voted to issue $1,000,000 of additional 6 per cent preferred stock. This action makes possible the acquisition of the two factories A*f the Owosso Sugar Company located a t Owosso and Lansing. It is stated that the purchase price is $2,000,000, of which $100,000 is to be paid m cash and $1,900,000 in preferred stock of the Michigan company. The completion of this purchase will give the Michigan Sugar Company control of nine factories, of which eight are located in Michigan and one in Ohio, and increase the company's annual output of sugar by between 300,000 and 400,000 bags (15,000 t o 20,000 ordinary t o n s ) . W E E K OF APRIL 20 Windy and showery periods during the week beginning April 20 in Michigan will occur around Sunday and again about Wednesday or Thursday but these storms are expected to be moderately mild in their activities as compared with the one expected in this state about Saturday. We do not wish to imply, however, that this latter storm will be a death dealing affair but rather that the weather elements will be more active and positive in their action. All during the first part of the week temperatures in Michigan will rise and fall with the progressive movement of the storm waves but with a general tendency for the readings to average normal or below. As the latter p a r t of the week arrives temperatures will take a more positive and active turn upward. The most noteworthy characteristics of the weather for this week will be the wind and especially will this be true as the week draws to a dose. If storm warnings are not erected a t many of the lake porta during ©arty part of week, we surely expect they will be on or before Saturday in anticipation of the gales we predict for that time. With these galea and strong winds will come rain and electrical storms to many parts of the state. Thermometer readings will be in the sixties at end of this week or at very beginning of next week but summer weather should not be looked for to continue at this time. We mentioned in this column a few weeks ago that Michigan inhabitants will get a taste of a backward April. The warm weather during this particular week should not deceive the average person interested in weather and what it does for him. We predict that before this storm period disappears, there will be reports of snow in quantity if not in Michigan, at least in near by states. o All United States mail planes are to be equipped with wireless. m—n CO-OPERATIVE A LASS1F1ED / \ DVERTISING DEPARTMENT SPECIAL, A R R A N G E M E N T TOUR A D V E R T I S E M E N T WTUL B X R U N ZX BIQ U 8 T OF MICHIGAN WBHKLT N E W S P A P E R S .

I The Child's Right to Play Play its the serious business of childhood. Watch some healthy children for a little while. If they are laughing and shouting they are probably at the same time exerting more energy in proportion to their size than highway laborers, and they may be so intent on some game or rivalry that cot even the dinner bell can distract their attention. Sometimes the laughter changes to loud accusations and counter-claims; if you have ever tried to umpire a boys' ball game, especially among a group whose neighborhood standards have not accustomed them to the best sportsmanship, you know what a deadly serious matter such a contest becomes in their minds. If this intensity can be centered and directed, it will form a motive power for life's activities like the "white coal" of Niagara. Playing children are not always noisy. When they are "making things"—from a block tower or cutoat dolls or crayon pictures to doll dresses, kites, windmills, or playhouses— few adults can be so concentrated and absorbed. A little child playing with blocks calls one of them a steamboat and pushes it along the floor. It occurs to him that the boat needs a smokestack and he sets up an oblong block to represent it. At the first movement the stack falls over, and t h e child pushes the blocks away tired of boats. B u t perhaps he decides to t r y again and after experimenting for a while he finds the stack will stay in place by using a small block on each side t o support it He has taken a step toward concentration on work problems. An older boy may experiment for hours to satisfy his ideas of what a boat ought to be. He may search to find a .piece of seasoned wood or make a journey to a sawmill; whittle patiently to shape the wood in proper proportions, with a prow and a stern; use smaller pieces to whittle oat smokestacks and a cabin, and do many things which as far as difficulty and thought are concerned would usually be considered work. A group of little girls playing house, representing details of cooking, entertaining callers, rearranging furniture, t and taking care of children, are as quietly serious a s their mothers at the same occupations. Children in a playground sandpile will spend hours constructing the stores and houses of a village, or a battleground with forts and trenches or a park or farm. A group of boys were observed to devote the greatest pains to building a gravity road down a mountain of sand, so that marbles would roll down the winding path without going over the sides of the curves. They were non-consciously learning the physical laws that lie at t h e base of engineering problems. The childhood play of many famous men, like the kite play of the Wright brothers, had a direct relation to the work which brought them fame in later years. Other children, even though less gifted, also need the opportunity to experiment with a variety of occupations, so they may find t h e work in which they can be of most service. Men and women who are misfits in their jobs a r e one of t h e greatest sources of community loss. At all ages active play, beginning with t h e use of slides and swings and proceeding from simple games to athletic contests, helps provide the physical vigor which must underlie other development; its lessons in courage and alertness and teamwork are among the most important which a child can learn Therefore these types of play also are the children's right; the community must see that every child has a chance to enjoy them. It has been proved that recreation centers and playgrounds reduce juvenile delinquency; as one judge remarked concerning a boy who had been a problem to the juvenile court, when the city organized a baseball league, "Bill was so busy stealing bases that he hadn't time to steal anything else." But the Children's Bureau wishes to emphasize the positive value of children's play rather than its negative side. Play not only keeps the child occupied, but when wisely directed it is growth and education and preparation for good citizenship all in one. No adult is likely to be a good workman who has not as a child known how to play. We have several stories, poems and letters, so will not take up space with any comments, b u t publish all of these t h a t space will permit. Our first letter is from an old scribe member, who h a s won a pencil sharpener for a prize. Dear Uncle Ernest: Saginaw, Mich. I received the pencil sharpener and I was very glad. I could not write to yon before as we were going to move. Now t h a t I am in Saginaw I am sending you a story. T h e name of it is: " T h e Fox and t h e Crow." THE POX AND T H E CROW Once there lived a fox in a den. crows lived near by. They were great friends. Once when the I were sitting on a tree, t h e fox by and said, "What have you i s those bags on your back?" " O u r said the crows. "Go home and bring a bag with your mothers in i t and we will have a least," said the fox. So the crows did w h a t they were tott. When they came back they at t h e fox with all their and they said. " W e have corn in oar b e g s ! " That i s the reason why t h e fox alwants t o kill all t h e crows. Agnes Hayek. Fay Clark sends us a n original and Uncle E r n e s t thinks it is protty good.

Pattern No. 511 The Need for Humane Education E R N E S T BELL, M. A., Editor, Animali' Friend, London ^ ~ = • When the subject of humaneness is mentioned, the majority of people assume that one refers to the humane treatment of animals, which certainly is a very important section of the subject—but only a section— and we do not wish to limit ourselves | to that. Sympathy and justice are the same, whether shown towards the sub-human animals or to our fellowmen. There a r e many people who deliberately affirm that moral qualities canijpt be systematically taught; while others, in excuse for the present- day system, or absence of system, as stoutly affirm that they are being taught all the time. Both assertions can hardly be true. Morals certainly can be taught like anything else. What, otherwise, is the meaning or object of the thousands of sermons preached annually, the addresses deiverled the many societies which exist with all kinds of moral objects to say nothing of the efforts of all parents to teach their children how to behave, as far as their own lights permit them? Inhumanity, whether to men or animals, is due mainly to want of sympathy and imagination, and is, in fact, a "savage animal" which has to be worked out, and is being worked out gradually, ad we may see on all sides. The earliest imulse of every living being is self-preservation, and this impulse dominates all his actions. Only gradually this impulse, under t h e necessity of social lif^, whether in sub-human or human beings, widens to include the pack, the family, clan or tribe, while all outside a r e regarded largely as hostile rivals to be treated accordingly, and we find in our present stage of development that nations still have one code of morals for their own members and another, often very different, for other nations. History shows very clearly how the great barrier to progress has been the survival and cultivation of this primitive instinct of self-preservation. The strong, throughout the ages, and all over the world, have for their own benefit oppressed the weak, with no idea of their having any "rights." The cultured Greek nation made slaves of their conquered enemies and the white nations still olppress the colored ones, and in some cases even allow their members to be lynched without any pretense to justice; the members of one religion have felt themselves justified in persecuting and torturing others who have held a diffrent faith from theirs, and still, though the primitive and purely selfish instinct is gradually being worked out it is only comparatively very recently t h a t animals have been allowed a place in our moral code and have had certain rights accorded to them. Even in England, which has been t h e pioneer in this matter, we can claim no definite principle or consistency in our laws or conduct where animals a r e concerned. The vivisector, the sportsman, the furclad woman, the trader, all perpetuate the old barbaric idea that they may do as they like and outrage the animals feelings whenever it suits their convenience, or pleasure. They are siraiply the Victims of the barbaric instinct through want of education in morals. But the nations a r e beginning to realise t h a t a widening of the sympathies and t h e consequent atrophy tf the primitive instinct must come before wo can be considered civilised, ind that this very essential development can and ought to be taught. We -ave recently had experience during h» war how Hate can be systematic *aOv taught hi school and home, and ' o v can certainly W taught at well Let us see how we have not tried to teach it hitherto. Our very baby rhymes depend for their interest on shooting ducks, mutilating blind mice, drowning a cat, hunting rabbits for their skins, and so on, and even to mention this fact is still considered as rather a joke by many people, so itte dol they grasp the meaning and importance of it. Our children's toys next inculcate warfare, slaughter, imprisonment and cruelty, with th soldiers of various nations, cannons, guns, butchers' shops, zoological gardens, etc. With the apparently innocent rockinghorse there is a whip to make him go. With this mass of cruel "suggestion" working on the plastic mind of children, can we wonder that they grow up cruel themselvs ur indifferent LU the many cruelties around them and to the feelings uf other sensitive beings? What a diffrence might we not expect, even in one generation, if The opposite influence could be Drought to bear on t h e young minds and if we took some trouble to maintain this influence throughout the school life, in ways suitable to the growing faculties of the boys and girls! While humane education comprises much more than the proper treatment of animals, there is probably no more direct and successful way of imparting it to t h e youri^ mind than, through the sub-human world. | Children are naturally much in | sympathy with animals. They are little animals themselves and much | more on.,, a level with them than witn ! the eldti •> of their own species, and it is s y . v . a t r v we ne.'d especially tc cultivate. I Moral qualities, like physical muscles, grow only by constant practice ! and exercise and if we can awaken in the child a feeling of sympathy and protection towards any animal, the same feeling will grow in strength as the child grows and will enlarge its field of activity. The beneficent effect of the teaching of kindness and justice to animals has, we think, been amply shown by the work of the Animal Protection Societies and the great work of the "Band of Mercy" movement which has gone all over the world. When Ella Wheeler Wilcox was asked why animal suffering called forth more sympathy from her than human sufferings she replied that "This work includes all the educational lines of reform which are needed to make a perfect circle of peace and goodwill about the earth." If humane teaching out of school hours, organized and carried on by private enterprise has been shown by those who have tried it to have so valuable a result to the taught, besides saving untold suffering to the innocent, sensitive creatures—"committed to our charge"—and so often deliberately or thoughtlessly iilused —-may we not reasonably demand that our State education authorities shall set apart at any rate some little time every week or every day for the deliberate inculcation of just and humane principles in the young minds of the next generation, and that as soon as possible? Liquid The amount of liquid to be used varies with the moisture content of "he Hour, kind of liquid—sweet milk, sour ur water—and the kind of quick bread to be made. All the batters, the popovers, griddle cake*, waffles and muffins have a high per cent of liquid Popovers call for an equal measure of liquid and flour, griddle cakes and waffles have a batter of equal consistency. The proportion of flour to liquid is two to one and a half. In the case of muffins, twice aa much flour as liquid is used. The doughs have a comparatively :•"iTIa 11 amount of liquid The flour by measure is more than twice the l.quid used Egg» Eggs are used in quick breads to incorporate air, which on expansion lightens the mixture, and to give a richer flavor. The whole ti^f; is beaten light or the yolks and whites are beaten separately, and then folded in. A more delicate bread results when this last method is followed. Eggs, even though unbeaten, aid in making the product lighter than it would be without because the egg makes the walls surrounding the bubbles of air or gas tougher and thereby a greater per cent of the gas is retained. Popovers and cream puffs are examples. Fat For the batters the fat is melted and stirred into the mixture because the batters have a high per cent of liquid and the fat cannot be added easily any other way. F o r the doughs the fat should be cold and is cut into the flour before the liquid is added. The fingers may be used, but they soften the fat. The plain quick breads, that is, the fundamental recipes, call for a small amount of fat. The breads which are very tender are made so by increasing the amount of fat. Shortcake is an example. This is a biscuit mixture with the fat increased two to three times. o Cabbage Salad Two cups shredded cabbage, 1 cup chopped nuts, salad dressing, beets. Remove wilted leaves from a cabbage and soak the head in cold salted water for half an hour. Drain, remove center, leaving a shell of leaves. Take out core, shred finely. Add dressing and nuts and place the mixture in the shell of cabbage leaves. Garnish with beets g l l M ^ I'lllllllllltpilll^^ The Home Beautiful The Conway An Attractive and Practical Stucco Home •< it« There are certain advantages in having living and sleeping porches at the front of a house. A living porch adds greatly to the pleasantness of . the living room, a bright spot always within, furnishing comfort and cheer whether the day be,, cold or hot, sunshiny or cloudy. Comfort for sleeping also often prompts the building of this modern addition in this location. Such a plan need cause no worry with regard to the appearance of the exterior, for it offers many satisfying arrangements. The architect who planned the Conway has achieved in its design a pleasing combination of an inviting exterior with a homelike interior It is a home that will accommodate an average family and can be built at moderate cost. The attractive Colonial entrance welcomes one into a vestibule, opening into the stair alcove, which is really a part of t h e living room. Here is a good sized coat closet and in the living room a hospitable fireplace flanked by book shelves. The windows furnish light and air from three directions and allow for artistic furniture arrangement, while the living porch offers unlimited possibilt e a for working color into the scheme. At the rear wt have the dining -oom aoa kttca. Each have windows T"lfc3T TLOOC PLAN on two sides, the dining room being amply large enough for an extended table, while the kitchen is a model of good arrangement with an outside opening into the refrigerator, so that it may be iced from the entryway. Upstairs the two front bed rooms open onto the sleeping porch. There is a large doset in too smaller of these two rooms, while t a t teftv room hat a doubk wardrobe. Tha back bed room also hat a good clotti. S E C O N D TLOOft. PLAM The necessity for closets in the well regulated home was carefully considered by this architect, for even the bath has one and there is a linen eloset in the upstairs hall. The exterior elevations are an adaptation of the Dutch-Colonial design which it quite popular in all tiona, but particularly in Ptatosytvaaia.

Their methods should be both inter eating and instructive to other corn growers. In order to ascertain the extent to which fertilizer was used, a questionnaire was sent to all who won prizes, including a number in Michigan. Out of seventy-one replies received, here were fortyseven in which the use of fertilizer was reported. that they could see no difference between fertilized and unfertilized corn and 13 were indefinite ur made no report. Of the 32 reporting improvement in quality due to fertilizer a great many stated that there were fewer nubbins and that the corn ran truer to type, with a larger proportion of seed corn. In stating the effect of fertilizer on maturity o'J reported earlier maturity, one reported no effect of fertilizer on maturity, ar:d seven did not report. Lime was not sufficient to produce efficient yields in this test &t the Scottsburg, Indiana, Experiment Field. Lime alone produced 30.3 bushels of corn per acre ( r i g h t ) . When 300 pounds of complete fertilizer were added, the yield rose to 72.3 bushels per acre. Of the forty-seven fertilizer users 43 report good results, two report aacertain or poor results from fertiliser and two make no report. The analysis used varied greatly. Ktne reported using acid phosphate alone. Twelve reported the use of add phosphate and mixed fertilizer. Twenty-two reported various analysts, with 2-12-2 and 2-16-2 predominating. One used bone meal and one used raw rock phosphate. Two Aid not report the analysis. Twenty-three of the fertilizer asers drilled the fertilizer in the row With regard to the question as to whether fertilizer increased the yield 39 reported in the affirmative, two stated that in their experience fertilizer had not increased the yield and six made no report. The increases in yield per acre were given from five to 35 bushels per acre, with the majority averaging eight to ten bushels. Thirty-two of the 47 mentioned other effects of fertilizer than those given below, In order of the frequency with which the effects were mentioned they are as follows; Hill application of fertilizer to corn apparently is not injurious, according to the evidence in these photographs of a test made by the Michigan Station. ..When the fertilizer is properly placed in the hill, (right) the roots are more numerous than when the fertilizer i» broadcast (left) and are just as well distributed through the so* I. t r kill with an attachment on the planter.

Much necessary deaning-up work about the house is eliminated when walks are built between the house and barn and other buildings. Of course the farmer's wife will benefit most by a walk, but it also appeals to the men folks who get little pleasure from wading through mud. crushed rock. A sack of cement holds i cubic foot.

If thw •oil i> reasonably firm the sub-baa* can be oauttedL A n y b o d y can make a concrete walk, providing they follow a few simple instructions. In the first place the ground where the walk is to be built should be drained, leveled and well packed before the concrete is placed. Forms are most easily made of 2 by 4-inch lumber set on edge and held in place by stakes, as shown in the drawing. This will make a walk 4 inches thick which is ample under ordinary conditions. Nothing could be more simple to make than a sidewalk. It is laid in a single thickness and no reinforcing is required. Where driveways cross the walks it is a good plan to increase the thickness to 6 inches. In making forms the tops of the 2 by 4's should be the height of the walk so that they will serve as a guide, for a 1 by 4 straight edge to be used as a template in leveling the concrete when filling. After the concrete has been carefully struck off with a template, the surface should be finished with a wooden float in order to give it a gritty surface. A metal float makes a smooth slick surface which is not desirable because it is likely to become slippery in wet weather. For practically all concrete sidewalk construction a 1:2:4 mix is recommended. This means that each sack of cement is mixed with two cubic feet of sand and 4 cubic feet of pebbles or. in size from JA to 1½ inches. Only enough water should be used to give a quaky or jelly-like consistency, after thorough mixing. Concrete sidewalks may be made of both one or two courses but the former is -ecommended. By one course construction we mean that the same concrete mixture is placed the full thickness of the walk at one time while in the two course construction the walk is made in two layers. The lower layer is a lean mixture and four or five inches thick while the top, one inch, is a rich mixture. Due to the difficulty of getting a good bond between the two layers there is danger of the top layer cracking. A few hours after the walk has been finished, it should be covered with moist earth or straw and kept wet for at least one week. At the end of this time the walk can be put into service. Concrete sidewalks besides being attractive and convenient and saving much hard work for the farmer's wife, are permanent. In other words they will not need any care in maintaining them.

" I l l name my boy after papa— and oh! how m spank him!"—The Progressive Grocer. 1—Select a kind of tree that will grow in your location. A safe rifle to follow in this respect is to choose a variety from those that are already thriving in your vicinity. The White Pine, Norway Pine, Hard Maple, Basswood, White Elm, Red Oak and White Ash are the most serviceable trees for northern Wisconsin. The White Oak, White Elm, Walnut, Hickory, Hackberry, White Ash, Red Oak and Norway Spruce will thrive best in southern Wisconsin. 2—A ten or twelve foot deciduous tree is considered the best size for ordinary planting, whereas the best results for evergreens will be had with trees eight to twenty inches in height. They should be free from scales ,and insect pests, such as moths, scales and borers. The trunk should be straight and it should have a single leader. 3—When digging trees in the woods be careful not to injure the roots and secure as many of the fibrous ones as possible. Nursery grown trees are better because they have been transplanted several times and have better root systems. 4—Do not allow the roots to become dry, but keep them moist and covered until you are ready to put them into the ground. 5—Ragged ends of broken roots should be cut off with a sharp knife. Limbs should be cut off close to the trunk of the tree to a height of seven feet from the ground in the case of hardwoods and the lower whorls should be removed when planting evergreens. The other limbs should be pruned slightly, making the cut just above a bud. The leader should not be cut. 6—The soil should be a light loam which is smooth to the touch, finely grained, and easily crumbled. If the ground taken from the hole is pure sand or heavy clay it would be well to remove this earth and replace it with good loam. 7—Dig a hole large enough to accommodate all the roots without bending or crowding. It should be at least three feet in diameter and two and one-half feet to three deep for a good-sized hardwood, and of proportionate size for smaller trees. The loamy earth should be packed around the roots, which should be placed in their natural position as far as possible. Two or three inches on top should be left loose, as it will help to hold the moisture. Plant the tree at the same depth that it stood in the nursery or an inch or two deeper. 8—If the soil has become dry add a few backets of water to the loam as yon plant Tree* newly planted should be thoroughly watered about once a week daring dry weather if possible and also a Httle cultivation will assist their growth. y—A stake nine to eleven feet long should be driven two and onehalf to three feet into the ground near the base of the tree. Tie the tree to the stake near the top of the stake by means of a tarred rope slipped through a piece of threequarter- inch hose about ten inches long placed around the tree and the stake in the form of a figure eight. 10—A piece of heavy wire netting, one inch mesh, six feet long and about twenty inches wide should be placed around the tree and fastened to the stake with staples. The end of the wire should be two inches from the ground and should notcome nearer the tree than two inches. The width and length of the piece of netting will vary according to the size of the tree and stake, and the distance they are apart. Other forms of tree guards can be used, but this one is serviceable and economical. 0 Reclaiming Forest Land in the Lake States Comparison of the growth of white pine, Norway pine, and jack pine planted in the Lake States region is being made by experts of the Forest Service, United States Department of Agriculture, with the purpose of determining with which species the old cut-over lands of these States may be reclaimed for timber growing. On favorable soil white pine appears to be most suitable, followed by Norway pine and jack pine practically equal in value. On the poorer, sandier sites, however, white pine must be preceded by the hardier though less productive pines. White pine plots showed an average annual production ranging from 74 to 101 cubic feet an acre at ages from 35 to 65 years, while Norway and jack pine range from 54 to 71 cubic feet. , Hardwoods and aspen, though on better soils, grow much more slowly and produce at corresponding ages only from 27 to 56 cubic feet a year. 0 Forest Protection Week to be April 21-27, Inclusive President Coolidge has designated April 21-27, inclusive, as the 1924 Forest Protection Week- The President in his Proclamation will urge "all Governors and all citizens, either in association or as individuals" to make proper observance of the Week. 0 ,— A Time for Gaidanee Careful reading of the news events of the day would seem to indicate that there are two kinds of l'kker, pre-war and post-naorteia.— Detroit Newav OUR POU PARTMENT Incubating Turkey Eggs There are certain factors in the incubation of turkey eggs which are very important, and which mean a great deal in determing the number of fully matured pullets and cockerels raised in the following year. In determining t h e number of fully m a t u r e d pullets and cockerels raised" in the following year. In a large measure the criterion of success in turkey raising is the number of fully matured t u r k e y s raised in proportion to the number of eggs set. Therefore, the eggs as laid must be given the very best attention. High fertility is desirable, and incubation should be carried out in such a way that as many of the eggs as possible will hatch. Naturally the vigor of the breeding stock and the manner in which it has been managed will determine in large degree the quality of the hatching eggs. The eggs should be collected regularly every day and kept in a room at a temperature of from 50 to 60 degrees F . They should be turned every day, but should be handled carefully and should not be kept for over two weeks. The period of incubation of turkey eggs is 28 days, and the method of incubation is much the same as with chicken eggs. Turkey eggs can be incubated under chicken hens, turkey hens, or in incubators. If chicken hens are used to incubate turkey eggs, care must be taken not to give the hen too many eggs, as from nine to twelve are quite sufficient, depending upon the size of the hen as well as the size of the eggs. Nesting arrangements as well as other matters a r e practically the same a s in incubating chicken eggs. The sitting hen should be fed daily and given a chance to exercise. When the turkey hen is allowed to sit on her own eggs, conditions are much the same as with the chicken hen. Turkey hens will cover from 15 to 20 eggs. Nests on the ground or in boxes or barrels and should be covered so t h a t the turkey hen will not be disturbed. At the same time she should be taken off daily snd allowed exercise and should be given plenty of water to drink, and clean, wholsome feed, such as a mixture of wheat and oats. When the turkey hen becomes broody she should be allowed to sit on the nest for two or three days before being intrusted with the eggs. When she has remained on the neet for two or three days she should be given her eggs and attended to as suggested. If a number of hens are sitting at the same time, care should be taken to see that they get back to the nests properly and t h a t no nest is left uncovered. Both chicken and turkey hens, while sitting on turkey eggs should be dusted with sodium flourid, using a small pinch under each wing, around the thigh joint, over the back under the body and around the vent. In this way the hen is rid of lice and the poults at hatching times are not liable to be infested with the parasites. Egg Industry Widely Scattered More than 5,000,000 farms in the United States produce eggs annually valued at more than a billion dollars, says the United States Department of Agriculture and scattered to a less extent throughout the country, but the great bulk of market eggs used on the large Eastern markets comes from the Middle-Western States where eggs are produced mainly as a side line on general farms. In the ordinary course of marketing the eggs pass through a number of hands and must undergo a journey of a thousand miles or so before they pass across the counter from the retailer to the consumer, the department says. More than 47,000 cars of eggs alone are annually t r a n s - ported by rail. New York City is the largest consuming market, followed by Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia, and San Francisco. Egg production is uneven throughout the year, being heavy in the spring and summer and light in the fall and winter. To fit the supply of eggs to the demand which is much more evenly spread over the year, it is necessary to hold about 12 per per cent of the eggs in storage against the months of low production in the fall and winter, the department says: To serve as a practical guide to producers, shippers and the egg industry generally the Department of Agriculture has recently published a phase of the marketing of eggs. The printed bulletin dealing with every phase of the marketing of eggs, The bulletin deals with problems of transportation, the function of cold stornels, egg structure and composition, age, marketing m e t h 0 ds and candling, grading, and containers. Copies of Farmers' Bulletin 1378, Marketing Eggs, may be obtained, as long the supply lasts, upon request to the Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C. A week to ten days before the sow farrows she should be removed to a pen suitable for her to farrow in. Before putting her in this pen, care should be taken to see that the pen is well cleaned, disinfected and bedded. For the bedding, chaff, leaves or short straw are good. Long material in which the little pigs are liable to get tangled should not be used. It is also important t h a t the pen be provided with guard rails. These may be made by using twoby- fours, setting them out four or five inches from the wall on all sides of the pen. They should be six to eight inches from the floor. It is very important that the sow's ration be carefully regulated the few days preceding farrowing. Two important changes should be made. The ration should be reduced about one half and this amount of bulk be added in wheat bran or a pound of linseed oil meal. The previous treatment of the sow will determine largely the results at farrowing time. If she has taken plenty of exercise during the preceding months and has been properly fed and is in a strong, active condition, she \v;ll carr P little concern. AfttT all preparations are made, the attitude of the man in charge should be that of watchful waiting and he should be on duty constantly during the day and night, especially if the weather is severe. It may be desirable to remove the pigs as they are born, especially if the westher is cold. If the sow seems nervous or objects, a long handled, six-tined fork will be found useful. If the weather is cold a straw lined basket with a few warm bricks makes a good place to put the little pigs until they dry. If the weather is very severe a "half barrel conaining a jug of hot w s t e r with a gunny sack thrown over the top of the barrel will be found to be an excellent place for the little pigs. The afterbirth should be removed as soon as the sow has cleaned and be burned or buried. If allowed to remain in the pen she may e s t it which many consider as a cause of forming the pig eating habit. Any dead pigs should also be removed.— Harry H. Smith, Colorado Agricultural College. quisite in connection with raising a healthy crop of pigs. Merely scraping, shoveling and sweeping the dirt out of a shed does not make that shed safe for newborn pigs. Roundworm egg3 and filth-born disease germs which are the sources of our most destructive pig troubles are microscopic in size and thousands of them may be contained in the dirt and filth which can only be removed by washing. The only way to destroy worm eggs is to boil them. A good disinfectant will destroy the germs which cause bull nose, mange, pig typhoid, etc. To make the hog house safe, scrub it with boiling lye water. The lye will cut the dirt. Then spray all posts and walls with a solution of liquid cresolis (30 to 1) and put in fresh clean bedding. 0 Jump in Farm Wages Shown Average farm wages in the United States last year were $33.18 a month with board, compared with $29.17 in 1922, the United States Department of Agriculture reports. Increases were shown in all geographic groups of States, with largest increases in the North Atlantic and East North Central States, and the smallest in- J creases in the South Atlantic States. 1 The rate per month with board in the North Atlantic group rose from $37.14 in 1922 to $43,42 in 1923; in the East North Central group from $33.63 to $37.54; in the South Atlan- States, including the Mountain and Pacific Coast regions, from $45.57 to $51.25. The rate in the West North Central States increased from $ ) .63 to $37.54; in the South Atlantic States from $22.12 to $24.93; and in the South Central group from $22.23 to $24.13. The increases are attributed to industrial competition for labor, which was most pronouncd in the Northern States as reflected in the larger advances. „__ A clean hog house is the first re- Uneertaia "Once you wear this L X .

Davis of the U. S. Department of Labor The saving of millions of dollars in s a l a r i e s , time from work and travel expense of applicants and their witnesses, property rights, personal rights, business embarrassments, the time of court judges and of the clerks of courts, are among the most important economic features of this plan. The new procedure is as follows: An alien whose declaration of intention (first paper) is two years (but not more than seven years) old, and has lived in the United States for five years and in the state for one year, and who wishes to file his final application for citizenship, should write to the clerk of the court in the county in which he lives or to the clerk of the United States court, if a United States court is convenient to where he lives, and ask the court clerk to mail him an application form No. 2214. The alien should not take the time off from work to call upon the clerk in person, nor should he take his witnesses t o the court at this time. The clerk of the court will mail the form 2214 to the alien and upon its receipt he should carefully write in the form all the f a c t s called for, attach his declaration and mail both papers to the Chief Naturalization E x a m i n e r whose name appears on the application form. Before the Chief Examiner notifies the alien to appear to file his petition, a careful examination will be made of the facts in the application to see if 'any mistakes or omissions appear, and, if so, the Chief Examiner will return the form to the alien and explain what should be dene to correct it. On the other hand if the facts are clearly stated by the alien,'the Chief Examiner will noify him to appear with his witnesses for oral examination to vertify the facts given in the form. If the law has been fully complied with, the alien will be directed by the Examiner to go immediately to the office of the clerk of the court to file his petition. This assures the alien the opportunity of filing on his first appearance, thus completing the two transactions at one time rather than taking two separate days, as was formerly the practice. The results in a saving of one-third of the expense to each petitioner by reducing the number of processes from three to two. It is a great help to petitioners because they are given timely advice by the Examiner as to the educational requirements of the court and are therefore in a position much earlier to m e e t the educational standard fixed by the court. Assurance is given to the alien by this method of procedure t h a t the petition will be properly filed and not subject to dismissal for technical or trivial reasons, or because the wttnesseB were not qualified t o act. If there are serious objections to his admission, they are developed in advance of filing, and t h e alien is informed, saving the unnecessary expease of filing the petition and the time of himself and witnesses spent at t h e cour hearing only o be advised of the irregularities and the need for starting anew. Ta« n o w heavily overburdened courts welcome the relief, occasioned ' by t h e elimination of defects discovered and cured through administrative examination before the hearing. It would be difficult t o estimate the time saved in hearing petitioners whose case8, after consideration by the court, must be continued or denied because of curable technicalities Under t h e old practice, where the preliminary examination was made during the ninety-day period, it frequently occurred that it was impossible to make it until just before the ceurt hearing; <in fact, m a n y were made at the hearing in c o u r t A s a consequence, the petitioner had no warning that the court would require him to understand our form of government and speak better English than he did and his case w a s continued. F r e q u e n t l y a fourth or fifth appearance was required before the applicant w a s admitted to citizenship, which occasioned enormous expense and loss of time from work for the petitioner and his witnesses. In addition to the loss of time, failure t o obtain his citiienship before a specific date not infrequently caused embarrassment and hardship in that be migh be called upon t o visit a foreign country on business, or it might be necessary to visit the country of hie nativity to bring his w i f e or children t o the United States, Busin e s s r e a s o n s might fore hise removal f r o m the jurisdiction of the court w k k h would require his return for * bearing without a n y positive assurance t h a t be would m e e t the technical requtrementa.

Of these over 85,000 were for technical reasons which could have been cured before the petitions came to hearing and many thousands of dollars in loss of time from work and in travel expense saved to applicants and their witnesses. The economicreturns in dollars and cents from the sweeping administrative cutting of ! the red tape, which has been considered the bane of naturalization procedure during the seventeen years of the operation of the naturalization law, can be calculated. The reaction thus far experienced by naturalization officials and the general public so emphasizes the benefits as to justify a nation-wide broadcasting of the new procedure Every applicant for naturalization should know how to proceed under the new plan so as to avoid the sad experiences of those who have in the past been compelled to bear the woeful waste in time and money. They should know, too, that they may now acquire the coveted citizenship status expeditiously and at the minimum cost. o - —— Michigan farm fire losses for 1918-21 have been computed by the National Board of Underwriters at $ 7 4 5 , 9 6 3 , of which $101,736 was from fires occasioned by lighning; $9,579 from matches and smokers, $ 7 4 , 5 6 3 from sparks on roofs and $54,604 from spontaneous combus ion Announcement has been made by H.

This Week B y E D . A. N O W A C K Highest Priced Fish. Market for Old Horse*. Who's Who in Lansing*. Lansing, Mich.—The yellow pickerel is Michigan's highest priced fish. On the N e w York City markets this fish is t o d a y selling at $1 a pound. The low price on the yellow pickerel in the N e w York City market never drops below the 70 cent mark and the prospects are that the peak price is not yet at hand. Last year Michigan produced four million yellow perch flngerlings. These w e r e raised at the Bayport fish hatchery. This year, w i t h the additions t o that hatchery, t h e state proposes t o raiae fourteen* million fire hundred thousand. T h e tread of t h e yellow pickerel t o maintain a very high price in foreign m a r k e t ! recalls that a b o u t IS Tin-' l:rit;sh an- at wi-ik in India (.in an irrigation work twice as large as the Panama canal and costing unc-sixih. us much. —Courtesy of Pennsylvania Newa. per cent of Michigan's commercial fish catch, valued at several millions annually, is all that is consumed in Michigan. A new industry is springing up in Michigan. It embraces the purchase of worn-out horses, which are taken to some of the numerous fox farms in the state, to be maintained in ease until their day arrives, when they are taken out and slaughtered that hundreds of black fox held in captivity may be fed raw meat These wornout equines are purchased at auction and at private sale. The price seldom runs as high as $50, more frequently it is from $10 to $20. Enterprising auto salesmen in northern Michigan are calculating on the worn-out hor^e as an aid to sales. In one case recently a salesman took in a hors>? that was ready to die and made an allowance of $25 for the horse in the trade in. The old horse, an old auto, a hatch of chickens and a cow and a calf figured in the deal. The astute farmer who figured one end of the deal was in high spirits over "putting it on" the salesman. But the salesman sold the horse to a fox farm at a profit^ sold the calf for veal at a profit, fattened the cow and sold her at a profit and had the old auto repaired and sold at a profit. The chickens he used for Sunday dinners And on top all that he made a nice commission on the new car. Eramus A. McAuley is the name of a white man and the name identifies "Bert" McAuley, secretary of the Michigan Boxing Commrssion. He has held that position for the last four years, and has done more than any other man in Michigan to build up the game in this state. He is eminently qualified for the position, as in his youth when they were fighting with bare knuckles he used to whip the best of them at 170 pounds. Mc- Auley is slated for the presidency of the National Boxing association. At the recent m e e t in Louisville, Ky., he whipped the Tex Rickard contingent from N e w York, who sought t o have a man of their selection appointed as dictator of the boxing game.

A Story of Michigan in Civil War Days '•N''>«^>«\";/«Mr^'.v»M;;» CHAPTER X. An Obliging Official. Kachel Clang's mind was in a turmoil. She had staked much on this meeting with Colonel Delwater and it i had come to naught. Back there among the pines her husband was awaiting' the outro;iu- with a terriHt anxiety. To enter the army as an honorable v.ilunuer would efface it. part at least the stigma t h a t darkened ] his good name. j Not that the settler had in the least recanted, but his hiding in the woods like and escaped convict was wearing on the man; he felt the irksomeness of the waiting. Better a place in the ranks of his enemies than a continuaion of the strenuous life he had beet: leading. It was because of this feeing that Clang had consented to his wife's plea in his behalf. The sight of the dark, unhandsome face of Forbes but added to the young wife's perturbation and disquietude. His presence in the city was amazing, considering the danger he was in, bearding the tiger with a vengeance. "Mrs. Clang, this is a surprise," said the conscript in his most genial manner. "I never thought to see you in town. How is Thornton?" "As well as usual, thank you." "Are you thinking of getting home to-night?" "Assuredly—" "Then I will go along as your protector. I propose to return to Hemlock Run at once. You have a carriage, a buggy or horse?" "None. I came on foot," "All these miles! Mrs. Clang, you surprise me. It is blamed mean on the p a r t of your neighbors not to lend you a rig. Strange that they should visit the sins of the husband on the wife, and she the nicest little woman in the whole valley." The man approached and touched her arm. He had been drinking and there was a greenish glitter in his sunken eyes. He had never been a friend of hers; she was shrinking from him now. "Don't be frightened, mam," said he aughing, "I'll see that you git safe home. Old Thornt oughn't to have let ye come." The man now walked nt her side.' The hour was late, few pedestrians being upon the street. Rachel glanced uneasily ahead, wishing to escape the fellow's importunities. She wondered at his temerity in thus visiting the city. Had she known for what purpose he had come she would have turned from him in anger and bitter loathing. Noting that he was in good humor she determined to do nothing to awaken his resentment. "Thank you, Mr. Forbes," ventured* the young woman, "keeping an eye out for a chance to shake him, "but I shall get on very comfortably alone." "It ain't safe, Mrs. Clang. I shan't let you go alone all them miles to Hemlock Run. If anything should happen old Thornt would blame me when he found out I'd seen ye and hadn't made no effort to guard you from danger. I'll walk home with you, mam, shore I will. He drew his hat low as they approached a pedestrian, laughing in a way that was jarring on his companion's nerves. How to get rid of his company was now the sole aim of the conscript's wife. Rachel stumbled in crossing a depression in the walk. Instantly the man drew her hand through his arm and held on tightly. "These walks ain't safe," he vouchsafed. "Hang onto me, and youTI come out right. Remember them spelling schools in North Tryon district when y o u V I was young, Mrs. Clang? Gee, but you was a cracker jack at spelling. You downed every blessed one of them Tryon chaps, and that was the time Thornt first aaw you. Remember—" Rachel gave a violent tug and freed her arm. She turned and started up the walk, he pursuing, again catching her arm. "Now see here, Rachel, I won't stand no blamed nonsense," he snarled, unexpectedly revealing his t r u e colors. ' I f you've got any sense you'll come along and mind your business." " I shall walk no further with you," burst out Rachel, now thor- •ttjrhly aroused. She struck him M blow in the face; jerking her arm free she started to run. She had not Itone five yards when he was upon her, hot from the baffling of hit plans. Dimly up the street appeared the outlines of a man. Rachel screamed. The man hurried forward aa F o r b e s attempted to drag her with him. The other man broke into a pursuing run. Other people were attracted by the struggle and the acr—tn. Forbes, as he suddenly realized, had overstepped the bounds of prndeaca. To arouse the police nmant prison and the army for him.

She was weak and very, very much shaken. "Madam, are you h u r t ? " he asked. "Not much. Only—only—" "Why, Mrs. Clang! I did not recognize you at first." A crowd was gathering and Mrs. Clang was glad to be led into a drug store near at hand. Here the woman sat down, pale and sick, still shaking bodily. The man dismissed the crowd at the door with a few explanatory ' words, after which he called for \ brandy of which he administered a ; dose which very much relieved the j frightened Rachfl. Her friend stepped over to the rear of the shop and conversed in a low tone with the drug clerk. He was giving the woman time to fully recover her self poise. After ten minutes he again approached. "I'm sorry to have caused a scene," she said, reddening under the questioning eyes. "I came to Wingdam for a little shopping and other business, ; and—nnd that beast tried to force his • attentions upon me." "I see. Who was the man?" "That fellow Forbes." "Ah. Forbes!" with a frown, "The scoundrel!" "He- is n conscript and might be apprehended. If the police were notified his capture would be easy." This was her revenue for the man's insults. 'I'll see about it at once. Sit nriit here till I return. Mrs. Clang; I wish to talk with you after a hit," and then,. he went out. It was comfortable -vh( . • she ^at and Rachel wj.s weak and tired. She realized what an effort it would be for her to walk home. She wished to avoid her friend, yet she did not feel like striking out alone while so nearly prostrated. Strength was returning slowly—she would wait. The clerk ap proached and would have engaged her in conversation had not her cold stare disconcerted him. The man who had gone to notify the police of the presence of a draftevader in town came in later, hesitating before the little woman reclining on the druggist's lounge. "Of course- you do not think of going home to-night?" said he. "Surely yes, I must." "Unless you have a conveyance it is wholly out of the question." "Oh, I am quite strong again." a pitiful little laugh falling. He saw the droop of the tremulous red mouth, the tired discouragement on the pretty face, and wondered at her courage. Moreover Marshal Woodrow was really hoping the police would round up Forbes. The scoundrel ought to be punished for his latest villainy. The marshal at the moment was willing to forego the hope of capturing that group of conscripts whom Forbes had agreed to betray. The pitiful condition of the conscript's wife appealed to his emotional nature, and he wras' anxious to learn how she came to be so , far from home at such an hour. A sudden idea shot to his brain. "You are not strong enough to j walk," decided Woodrow. "I have a , friend with whom you can pass the night, unless you insist—" "I must get home." She rose and approavhod the door. He came to her side instantly. No more deferential gentleman lived than Tom Woodrow when occasion offered. He at once assured her that she should go home, but not on foot. "I will call a carriage," he said, going nut. Rahcel, her limbs trembling, went back and sat down. The marshal was not long gone. Rachel accompanied him to the carriage, the two riding away together. At another time the young wife would have refused the escort of this man who had hunted her husband so remorselessly. Tired and discouraged from the t r a - vels of the day she felt the need of leaning on someone. She had known and called Woodrow friend before the ever met the man who waa now har husband. Once the two men had bean the beat of friends; but for this fratricidal war they might have been friends htill. Rachel had always respected Tom Woodrow. Why should she exhibit enmity toward him because of the fact that he, as an officer of the government, sought the "-apture of those, including her husband, who were hiding from the 'military' Mrrvice of their country? It was silly to harbor ill-will, she reaiioned, and so she suffered the marshal to take her home. He had been an admirer of hers in the past. What of that? Rachel was strongly intrenched in her own conceived ideas of womanly rectitude and did not falter at small nicitiea of demeanor where herself alwne was concerned. Tom handled the reins himself not wanting a third party present. It seemed like old times to sit thus beside this woman for whom his admiration had never waned. In fact her marriage to the poor but honest log scaler had cut him deeply at the time it occurred. Since the latter had virtually outlawed himself Woodrow had grown hopeful for the future. He did not believe that one with Rachel's refined and womanly nature could long endure a man whom the whole community, because of his cowardice, despised. The marshal was almost himself again. The vicious assault of the conscript, however, had left scars that wrankled deeply. "You are having a very unpleasant experience, Mrs. Clung," ventured her companion. "For the life of me I cannot understand it." "What is it you do not understand9 " "The actions of that man Clang—" "Oh, but he is not like he was at first," Rachel broke forth earnestly. "He would come in and be good if they would only let him. I have been to see the colonel about Thornton." "Colonel Delwater?" "Yes. He did not encourage me to hope for anything. I shall blame Thornton less after the way Colonel Delwater treated my proposition." "Which was—" "My husband's surrender providing he be permitted to enter the volunteer service." "And is he willing to do that?" The marshal's heart sank. He was better pleased with Clang in disgrace which while it lasted gave him th<.- shadow of a hope where R.achV, wa< concerned. "He would gladly compromise his trouble with the government in that way. We have talked it all over, Thornton and I, and decided this was the best for all concerned." "It might be," mused her companion thoughtfully. As they rode down the long hill lead*- ing to the bridge which spanned th? river near Logtown each was busy with unspoken thoughts. Woodrow had led a somewhat checkered career during the last few years. He was a man of undoubted courage, had been county sheriff in other days, and soon after the beginning of the great civi) war had been selected by th*1 (iovern merit to represent its authority in the nine country as provost marshal Many a draft-evader had he led back to the conscript pen. Thornton Clang, the most intelligent of them all, managed to keep out of his clutches, much j to the brave officials chagrin. Tonight however, he bargained with Darwin Forbes for the betrayal of the latter into his hands. Soon the most clever of conscripts hiders would come under the strong arm of military law. <The thought was refreshing to Marshal Woodrow, although he winced when hi thought of the woman at his side. It would IK' well enough he thought to keep from her his own part in the capture of her husband. The conscript's wife was too full of her disappointment to converse. She replied to her companion in monosyllables. The carriage halted at the house of a neighbor where little Thornton had been 1ft by his mother. The babe was sleeping soundly when the settler's wife placed him in the arms of Rachel. The woman who had cared for the babe asked simply "What luck**" Rachel replied "None at all," and the carriage rolled on. Arrived at home Woodrow hitched the team, raised Thornton Jr. from his mother's arms, standing obediently on the step while slender Rachel unlocked the door, pushed it open and entered. She lit a lamp then came to take the infant Clang. "I thank you ever so much, Tom," said she. He stood hesitatingly on the step as he gave up his small charge. lovers' senseless quarrei she might be his wife now and young Thornton his son only the latter's name would have been Torn instead. "Ah, you are waiting," said a voice breaking his reverie. She came and | stood in the doorway. Waa she going to ask him in? He thrilled at the thought, well knowing such an act | would seem not quite proper to the loyal folk* of Hemlock Run. "I thank you ever so much, Mr. Woodrow. You have been very good to me. She held out her hand. The smile on her face drove the care with it. He pressed that little hand with a fervent touch, started to raise it to his lips when she drew it away unexpectedly. She stood fully in the doorway, not asking him in. The lamplight touched her sad young face, renewing the troubled expression in her brown eyes. "I am so sorry for poor Thornton," she began suddenly, giving him a start. "If you should use your influence with the colonel—" "My influence," he hastened to say, "would not bring results, Rachel. You see, there are certain laws governing military affairs which cannot be set aside—this is one of them. A conscripted man cannot enter the volunteer service." "That is a cruel law." "No doubt you think so, but you must remember Uncle Sam has all sorts of people to deal with. He cannot make a law equitable in all cases. That which works injustice to a few often is best for the great majority." He did not want her to think he would not aid her husband in his honest desire to escape the punishment due his offense. Secretly, however, he rejoiced in the downfall of his rival. The woman sighed, pressing her hand against her heart. She was temptingly pretty just then. Had he dared he would have caught her in his arms and repeated the story of his love which burned even brighter than ever in his heart. He found himself wondering if she really and truly cared so much for Thornton Clang, a wretch who could desert wife j;nd child, and run his country in the hour of that country's sore need. It seemed to him that a true woman must indeed despise such a spineless man. "I am sorry for your sake, Rachel," he said, but I have not the making of the law, nor am I able to annul it in any particular." He made no pretense that he would have liked to do this. He could see nothing particularly dishonorable in the fact that he loved the wife of another man, since that other man had wrought ill to his wife, and was in no way worthy to continue in the role of a protector. Clang having outlawed himself was in a way really divorcing him from the woman. She could readily obtain a decree and he believed she would do so in time. To enter his rival as a volunteer was the least of Woodrow's intentions. Once the deserter was in jail, accused of a crime almost capital in its nature, Rachel would recover her senses and disown her recreant spouse—so reasoned the provost marshal.

Rachel had carried the child to his crib in the rear room. She would return of course. He waited with bitten lip. How different the world mipht have been but for that man in hiding along Hemlock run. Tom could not pet the thought out of his mind that the Perkins girl belonged of right to him. He had known her longer; they had played together as boy and girl;; it was hard to think of her as the wife of another—and she had been a wife more than two years now. How he had survived the time waa a mystery to him.. She seemed so tired and worried. Waa it all because of her husband's acts? Was the repenting ber marriage with t h e ! young scaler even before the draft had proved his lack of manhood? Did aha think sometimes of the past and how they, Tom and she, had been such food friends? He had wanted to mMTTj her, and he felt but for a WEEK OF APRIL 6 Temperatures durine early paro of week beginning April 6th will be cool for the season, but gradually warm up so that by the middle to latter p a r t readings will be considerably above the seasonal normal for Michigan territory. The greater part of the week will display generally clear days with the exception of the period around ^Thursday and Friday, when moderate showers and wind storms are expected. Fruit Forecast Judging by what we believe thee weather will be during the month of March (this is being written on the 6th of March) plowing should be progressing rather favorably during the present forecast week- Grains should be coming nicely in southern half of state, but may receive a setback or rather show slow growth during April. There is a liability t h a t the weather during latter part of March will moderate to such an extent as to advance fruit "buds unduly. Considering the extremes in temperature and the rather low readings we are expecting during the first half of April, such an advance will prove dangerous. If the advance is not sufficient at this time to prove dangerous, then the cold weather which we are expecting will prove to be a good thing for fruit growers. Just to mention two of the fruits of Michigan soil, we will state we expect a fairly good apple year in "most parts of the state, more especially the southern half. Strawberries this year will not ^e a short crop as far a drought in June is concerned, as w u the case last year. We expect plenty of rnoisure during the growing and fruiting season. o - LEARN HEAL E S T A T E — T H E BEST BUSinoss: start without capital, splendid opportunities everywhere. Free Synopsis..

Spring Treatment for Raspberries A T T E N T I O N S H O U L D B E G I V E N T H E M N O W As soon as the frost is out of the g r o u n d and wrork can be done to adv a n t a g e , the weeds and g r a s s as w< a-s all dead wood should be removed from t h e beds of b o t h r e d a n d black r a s p b e r r i e s . The dead canes are those t h a t produced t h e f r u i t the proceeding season. T h i s old wood is q u i t e brittle and can be broken off or c u t with a p a i r of s h e a r s . Some folks make it a p r a c t i c e to remove old wood j u s t as soon as the f r u i t ha* been harvested. T h e time for p r u n i n g may be any time after the first of M a r c h , but w h e r e t h e p l a n t a t i o n s a r e small, it is often well to defer p r u n i n g until buds begin to swell. T h i s affords t h e p r u n e s a b e t t e r c h a n c e to see w h a t p a r t of t h e wood h a s gone t h r o u g h the w i n t e r in good condition.

If the soil is sandy and caves the excavation will have to be large enough to permit outside forms to be erected. If the earth can be used for outside forms, a hole only 8 feet square and 10 feet deep is necessary for this cistern. In order to make sufficient footing for the cistern a trench 6 inches deep and 10 inches wide should be , dug in the bottom of this hole next to the walls, The inside forms for the cistern wall which are 6 feet 5 inches cubic feet of sand and 3 cubic feet of high and 7 feet long allowing a concrete pebbles or crushed rock.

It is n o wonder t h a t t h e fireplace Is a thing of revered memory—the home fire lias been the center of the family life ever since t h e remote day when t h e caveman first carried a burning brand from t h e tree that b a d been burned by lightning and s t a r t e d a tire before his rude cave to warm himself and bis m a t e nnd frighten away the animals of the forest. The development of t h e fireplace has been slow—for countless centuries it w a s made of stone, which eventually were bound together with some kind of m o r t a r to make \e fireplace more stable. I n medieval times t h e fireplace became a more elaborate affair, especially In the countries of n o r t h e r n Europe, w h e r e colder winters made it nece s s a r y to m a k e g r e a t e r provision for beating t h e huge castles of t h e feudal lords.

W h e r e one desires the ultimate in fireplace design, even though It may cost more, be can use precast concrete stone, which may be molded in ornate and unusual designs to suit his preference. By making t h e concrete in this precast stone with different colored "aggregates*4 of stone -and sand, one may obtain a great variety of colors.

A Story of Michigan in Civil War Days :.Ya\?v*C/»v.y*c<a\../*\r/*\i./a\U*\..^ Despite the elation creaUjd by the ( "Better be a widow and done with conscript's proposition, Tom Woodrow never once lost hib caution. He kept his hand on hrs pistol and his eye on his visitor. He suspected an ulterior motive, an act of treachery. It was not like Forbes, the terror of the camps, to do things because of a pricking conscience. "And now what is there in me, T o m ? " "Why, what you asked for, safety from punishment, providing you do as you say, return yourself to the ranks." "That is ail quite the sweet thing of course," and a jarring laugh fell "But there must be a more substantial consideration. It's money I w a n t — " "I thought as much," uttered the impatient Woodrow. "You are an arrant knave, Forbes. I think we will call this meeting off." The marshal rose quickly and touched a button near his chair. He did not press it, however. The look it,' dclared one unsympathizing, neighbor. " ' T a i n ' t as if she didn't' uphold him in it; that's the worst feature." "Well, I don't know," hesitated h e r ' husband. "You see, most folks would see something to commend in a wif_* stickin' by her husband. It's scripter; the roots of his no^e to crown. B^ sides the disadvantage of a hooked rinse and umall, watery blue eyes h'o liice was thin and bony to the last degree. John Andrew Delwater owed his position to a political pull I rather than to an excessive merit. j There were many officers of his ilk in the army, some of whom acquitted I themselves with honor. j "Ah, Mm.

"I am here Thornton, Mrwater." Her brown eye« fell before the gaze of his watery blue ones, while a constriction of her throat almost choked her.

I'd like to whisper a word in the ear of Thornt, that I would." "You'd delight in stirring up a muss," chuckled her husband. "Some women are never satisfied to let other folks' business alone." Baby Thornton was very good these days. The trials of his mother seemed to appeal to his baby sympathy and he seldom cried or worried. This was something to be glad startling—ferocity and fear comin gled. "Don't touch that, Tom!" There was a threat in the words. The man was no longer a supplicant; into his eyes there came a green flash of danger. Slowly he swept to his feet, a tall, menacing figure, with gritted teeth and strangling hands. The work and twist of the fingers inciated it. It was after a long talk with her husband that Rachel set her face toward Wingdam. The man held to his ideas while giving in to Rachel's pleading. "I'll give myself up and go to the war," he said, rather sullenly it must be admitted, "if the harpies of Uncle Sam will treat me as a white man should be treated. If I had a black dicated a desire on the part of their s k i n t h e w n o i e p u s h a t Washington owner to throttle someone. W o o d - | w o u l d f a l l d o W T 1 a n d w o r s h i p me. It's row belt a struggle coming and braced himself for i t "Have you anything further to offor?" demanded the marshal, no sign of fear on his impassive face. "It's as I told you, Tom I want money—" "What good will money do you while you are in the a r m y ? " "I can place it all right," returned the other. "I have a woman at Sand Flats—my woman, Tom, and a likelier one never lived if her skin is dark and her form impressed by corsets. There's a reward I know. Divide with me, Tom Woodrow, and it's a bargain." It was this or a battle for blood. Woodrow could see this plainly. He might summon help; he might shoot the fellow dead in his tracks, and he might make a miss of it entirely. In the latter case he felt himself no match for the muscular Forbes. "By thunder, Darwin, you are a cool one," greeted the marshal with a forced laugh. "You are quite right in saying there is a reward. I will grinding to have a nigger preferred to a white man, although it's only what might be expected. I warned the people when they were so wild for Old Abe. We're the laughing etock of all Europe. If it wasn't for Thornton boy and you I'd rot in the woods before I'd knuckle an inch to the scoundrels who prosecute this abolition war." This sort of talk was not new and Rachel accepted it for what it was worth. From being a stalwart defender of the flag the young wife had grown to accepting her husband's theories as more than half right. His mode of life as a draft-evader, however, worried her. Far better she argued to fight in a despised cause than to make of himself a martyr as I he had been doing. It was Rachel's I appeal for the young heir's sake that I had finally won over the hardened [heart of her conscript husband. "Good heaven*, come, let him the Colonel. him come!" exclaimed "I shall be pleased to hear what you have to say, Mrs. Clang." An aid placed a stool but the little woman did not sit. "He wants to come in, sir, a n d — " She hesitated for the right word. Her position was a humiliating one, and yet she wished to impress h?r aud'tor with a sense of her firm fai'h in her husband. "Good heavens! madam, let him come, let him come!" exclaimed the colonel, rising to the dignity of his five feet six, stamping about th*1 room his sword clanking against his spurred boots. "There isn't the shade of an excuse to keep him hidiiig like a runaway schoolboy. Where is he now?" "He is with friends." "By that you mean other draft skedaddlers, e h ? " Colonel Delwater's face crimsoned. He chewed the ends of his red mustache and reflected. This little It was late in the afternoon when j woman was too sweet and pretty to the young wife reached town. She; be the wife of a Rebel sympathizer, rode to the camp in a carryall which i Even the doughty colonel, a married conveyed visitors to and from the divide with you after we round u p ' refrimental grounds. Just as the carryall was starting, a stage with four horses attached, bowled up to the hotel door. It was loaded with men, young farmers and rivermen from the runaways." "Shake on it then." Forbes stepped nearer, extending his hand. Woodrow accepted this proffer of earnestness, but presented £n e back districts. his left hand, the right still holding! »How are you, conscripts?" yelled the pistol.

Coming out of a dingy little shop he saw a woman. Forbes drew close to the building and regarded her— the prettiest face he had seen in a long time. And the woman was Rachel, the wife of the man he was about to betray. She came slowly down the sidewalk. Her slender form was becomingly clad. The flash •f numerous lamps touched her abondant coils of hair—it was a mass of burnished gold! thusiasm. Here was no place for pessimistic whining; the very earth breathed enthusiastic reverence for Old Glory! It was a heroic time. Rachel smiled a little bitterly. She had been a patriot once, that time when she read in the newspapers of the tale of Sumpter's fall and of the outponring of a patriotic people in defense of the endangered Union. Thornton had greeted thi9 news with a sneer. She was sore for a time at his want of patriotism. When, however, the grim Tiand of militarism use "Such a woman!" ejaculated the snatched her protector, that was comeharmed rough. He had seen a n d | j n f r home with a vengeance. It was admired her many times. Tonight her n o t justice. Why should the South face, though tired and thin, was I D e coerced for doing what their sweet and very lovely in its saddened f a t h e r s d j d i n 1 7 7 6 ? At a n y rate expression. Forbes Bugged the w a l l . | i e t the volunteers do the fighting; if permitting Rachel to pass. He stood, m e n like Thornton chpse to remain irresolute for fully a minute, watch- n e u t r a l how wicked it was to ing the gentle motions of the supple yonng woman. He wondered what •he was doing in Wingdam at such an honr. He suddenly decided to follow in her steps. "Ah, but Thomt's a churl to let her waste her life like she is doing," breathed the man. "Heavens! but I could go to hell for such a woman!" And then Forbes rushed on in rapid pursuit, forgetting his little plot in his anxiety to speak with the wif« of the man he meant to betray. compulsion. Somehow, Rachel never quite satisfied her conscience with her specious reasoning. Down deep in her soul she knew that the call to duty meant Thornton as well as his neighbor. However much she dreaded separation, the dangers of malaman for many years, was visibly im pressed with the modest beauty of the deserters wife. No man came near to Rachel Clang without feeling that he was in the presence of a superior .voman, superior in qualities t h a t go to make up a pure and feminine nature. "My husband has the courage of his convictions, Colonel Delwater," proceeded Rachel, rising to the occasion, and not wishing to pr olong the interview. "He has ample justification for what he has done, but ho feels now it would be the honorable thing for him to come in and report for duty." "Right, maoam, quite right," affirmed the colonel. "I understand that volunteering has been slow of late and that the Seventh has not yet a full q u o t a ? " The little woman had found herself at last, and was speaking with quiet calmness that acquitted her of any desire to be thought emotional. "Quite true again, Mrs. Clang," agreed the other. "If such men as your husband had not shirked their duty the regiment would have been f111 long ago. The acta of American citizens like these are reprehensible, reprehensible to the last degree, madam. I cannot too severely characterize it." The little woman looked nt a flag that was half coiled about a post in one corner of the room. She was not afraid of the colonel, but, somehow his little twinkling blue orbs chilled her. The room, though well ventilated, seemed hot and stifling. "I will pass your fling at my husband," said Rachel, a tinge of red dying her thin cheeks, "and state that he is ready now to make amends as far as possible. He will come in and report at once providing he is guaranteed respectful treatment." "Eh? What's that? Respectful that moment. His insolent references to her husband hardened her heart and served to confirm her belief in the righteousnebs of the stand Thornton had taken with regard to the war. "Then I am to understand that you will not treat my husband as a m a n — " "As a man, yea, of course, madam" retorted he. "But he can't come in and eat the fatted calf just yet, not while my boys have to camp under the bleak sky and expose themselves to the bullets of the enemy. When will this fellow r e p o r t ? " "Not at all," and Rachel, hot of heart and dry-eyed, yet outraged in feeling turned to depart. "One moment, woman," commanded Colonel Delwater. "You cannot go in this manner. I want to ask you a few questions about your husband." A guard stood at the door and at a sign from the officer, blocked the woman's egress, Rachel Clang's anger did not cool at this. Colonel Delwater was a boor. She was hurt and amazed at his insolent treatment of her well meant efforts. If she had had to deal with Captain Ranger now, who was a gentleman, how different it would have been, and he a foreigner! at that. Rachel had always affected | to dislike Canadians. Here was a | Yankee, however, who had the man-j ners of a lout. She felt t h a t there J could be no compromise as she faced the uncivil colonel of cavalry once more, either cheek burning. "I am glad t h a t you came here to talk about t e r m s , " proceeded the colonel, speaking less harshly. "Tell this man of yours that I will guarantee his personal safety, but he must take his medicine with the other conscripts." 1 Week of March 30. Temperatures during very early part of week beginning March 30 will be above normal with readings in the sixties but with a storm center over or very close to Michigan during Sunday or Monday this wurm weather will toon r?:t:-i to much colder with leadings in the lower t v t n t i e s c-'i or before the middle of the week. Following Wednesday there will be a reaction to warmer temperatures although we do not expect the readings to be a-s high as during fore part of v,eek. However, the week ends with temperatures cool for the season in .Michigan. During the very early part of this week Michigan will be in the throes of a low Larometr\: j ressure wlncr w '! be producing general rainfall or snow in those sections where the temperature is below freezing.

We also believe that u'lder exist: ng j conditions, ^cr.erally t^ir weather j wil continue for the greater part of the week.

Wt believe the month will average backward generally throughout tb* state with temperatures generally below the seasonal normal and more than the usual amount- of precipitation. It is likely these conditions will make for a good stand of grain and will help hold back the fruit buds until after the frost and cold danger. On the otherhand, the farmer will probably be greatly hindered in his spring plowing. For the country as a whole we are expecting the weather to be cool for the season until about middle of May when the barometric conditions over the Atlantic and Pacific oceans will change. During latter half of May and first part of June temperatures will show a decidedly higher rang* but with numerous extremes, o Says Average Man Is Worth Only 98 Cents early truck crops in Michigan the I thought perhaps he might find a month of April will be an ememy to place in the Seventh," timidly ventred Rachel. "What, with the volunteers! That is quite out of the question." "But he will volunteer—" "Too late for that, my dear madam," and Colonel D e l w a t e r smiled at her childlike innocence. "Once he has been drafted he cannot enlist. He ought to have thought of that sooner. He will have to come in under the terms of the conscript law. Better see that he does this, since we shall nab him anyhow, in which case I cannot answer for the consequences." "But the conscripts are penned and guarded," she said hurriedly, her face hot as fire. "I know Thornton will never consent to that.

Dr. Pierle says the body of a man weighing 150 pounds contains enough water to wash a blanket, enough iron for a ten-penny nail, lime sufficient to witewash a small chicken coop, and enough sulphur to kill the fleas on a large dog. All these elements he says, could be purchased at a drug store for 98 cents. o An Even Break Townly: "Do you often have to rush to catch your morning t r a i n ?

There had been t h e usual preliminaries as to passing the pruard, which though annoying, was yet a necessary concomitant of military life.

Now, madam, I am ready t o grant anything in reason, b u t really we can't treat with deserters, that's flat I am sorry for you though." He smiled at the last and attempted to ogle her with his watery eyes. She hated Colonel Delwater from do. If my husband's services will not be accepted as a volunteer he will surely never serve in any other capacity," With her head lifted high the conscript's wife passed from the officer's quarters. She had no difficulty in making her way to the outside. The carryall was not here so she walked, the distance being something over a mile. When she reached her room at the hotel Rachel was weak from her exertions of the afternoon. She lay down and napped for the space of two hours. Night had fallen when she was ready to return the weary miles to Hemlock Run. Coming forth from a confectioner's shop the woman was walking briskly when a voice uttered her name. She turned about to meet stalwart Darwin Forbes face to face. She did not fear him since he was a professed friend of Thornton's and an army deserter as well. (To be Continued.) o Where Some Government Money Is Spent It is not generally known t h a t the federal government spends annually between 40 and 50 million dollars for the benefit of the several states, all direct appropriations by Congres?. Among these subsidies or aids are: $29,000,000 for good roads; $2,550,000 for land-grant colleges; $2,009,000 for education in agriculture; $2,019,000 for education in industries; $1,090,000 for education of teachers; $1,034,000 for rehabilitation of persons injured in industry; $4,580,000 for agriculture extensions; and $1,750,000 for aericultural experiment stations. In addition are the large sums periodically expended for rivers and harbors and public buildings. Most of the states receive f a r more from t h e federal government than they pay into the federal government by way of income or other taxes. o Dog Left in Indiana Finds Way to Oregon Last summer G.F. Brazier of Silverton, Oregon, near here, and his family visited Wolcott, Ind., and took with them their dog. Bob, a collie. While the family was in the Indiana city Bob disappeared. They searched and advertised for him but without results, and the Braziers came home without him. That was more than six months ago. A few days ago Bob arrived in Silverton, weary and sore-footed, but otherwise healthful. It is believed he came home without a "lift" half way the continent.

KAISER Agricultural Engirt '•i> If you are planning to start with bees this spring, let me advise you to investigate thoroughly before doing so. First of all, write your Agricultural Experiment Station for information and bulletins. Then secure a good book on beekeeping and subscribe for a beekeepers' magazine, either the American Bee Journal, published at Hamilton, 111., or Gleanings in Bee Culture, published at Medina, Ohio. And, finally, before the bees arrive, see if you cannot visit the yard of some beekeeper and solicit hie aid. It ia a very simple matter to acquire a colony or two of bees and start in with the idea of getting lots of honey. Thousands of persons make such a start each year but comparatively few of these continue with the bees for more than two or three years. What at first promises to be a lot of fun with a profit at the same time, soon proves to be a real piece of work with the fun knocked out by the disagreeable feat u r e s which are a necessary part of beekeeping as well as of other pursuits. Beekeeping is not a difficult task but in order to secure maximum returns, every manipulation necessary for success must be carried out at the proper time in the season. Now if you are determined to have a few bees and are sure that you will continue to 'love and cherish them," continue as follows: Before buying any bees or second- band equipment, fix this fact firmly in mind. Bees, like other animals and people, are attacked by disease, and one disease in particular will destroy a colony in one season if proper treatment is not provided. This t r e a t m e n t consists of destroying all the young bees and the comb3 and starting the bees on new foundation. It is more or less distributed throughout the United States, so you should consult your state bee inspector as to the chance of success in your locality before making the start. Also, do not buy any bees or second-hand equipment without determining from the state inspector as to whether or not the dealer has an inspector's permit to sell bees or second-hand equipment. Disease germs may be carried over in old combs or hives as well as with the bees and the beginner is taking too great a risk in using such equipment unless passed upon by a competent inspector. Hew and When to Make the Start Under all circumstances, the beginning beekeeper should make his s t a r t at a time in the year when some mistake on his part will not result in a total loss of colony or a season's crop. Secure your bees in early May, and under no circumstances later than J u n e first unless someone gives you a colony or a swarm. In most sections of the country the honey flow will be over by July 15 and colonies started later than t h a i date may have to be fed sugar eynip to carry them over the winter. If you can buy a colony of bees from a reliable neighbor whose bees a r e healthy, that will be the easiest plan. If this cannot be done, then write to your apiary inspector and g e t the name of a reliable dealer in one of the southern states. A full colony can be bought for $15 to $20 and parts of colonies under the name of neuclei or package bees can be bought for six or seven dollars each. A full colony of bees should contain 10 combs in movable frames and about 50,000 bees. A neuclei consists of one to three combs with from 5,000 to 10,000 bees, including a queen, " P a c k a f e beea" come without combs and are sold by the pound. The buyer can secure one, two, or three-pound packages with • queen, which is usually priced extra. A full colony of beea needs only to be set out when it arrives and extra hive bodies added when the honey flow s t a r t s Additional frames with foundation must be provided for neuclei and package beea. Do not buy neuclei of lesa than three frames, and package bees of less than three pounds. Be sure that your order includes a queen. Before the beea come order the equipment nenesaary for as many colonies as you desire. Extracted honey is more easily produced by the beginner than comb honey, but unless you can borrow an extractor, and uncapping knife from a neighbor, you will find it desirable to start with comb honey. For each colony, you should have one full depth super with frames and foundation and two or t h r e e comb honey supers. It is advisable not to start with less than two colonies nor with more than five. In starting with two colonies one can build up again should something happen to one of them and in case more than two colonies are desired, more colonies can be formed from the two by dividing them after the surplus crop is secured. C a r e of Beea ia t h e S p r i n g If full size colonies are secured they usually have sufficient stores to keep them going and extra stores a r e not necessary. But if neuclei or package bees are bought, it will be necessary to feed them sugar syrup as soon as they arrive. About 10 or 15 pounds of syrup will be needed by each neuclei or package. Make up the syrup by adding equal parts of sugar and water by weight and heat until the sugar is completely dissolved. No special apparatus is needed. Secure a friction top syrup or honey pail, punch a few tiny holes in the top, fill with syrup and invert on top of the frames with a hole in the center just large enough to permit the feeder to set next the frames Then put the extra empty hive body or super on the hive and set the cover on top. Examine the feeder every few days and when empty fill and set on again unless there is an abundance of flowers of some kind in bloom. As soon as the bees are securing nectar from the field the feeders can be removed. T o P r e v e n t S w a r m i n ; One of the principal difficulties which the beginner has to contend with is swarming. Only experience gained by actual practice can teach us how to control swarming, but in order to know what steps to begin with, look up swarming in the book which you have bought and try as best you can to follow out the suggestions given. Also read very carefully all that you can find on "Comb Honey Production." Beginning with your first season, get these fundamental facts into your mind and always keep them before you if you want to be a successful beekeeper. First—In order to get a honey crop you must have a large surplus of bees, and the bees Imust have an abundance of room in [which to store honey and ripen it. Second—Certain manipulations of the colony are necessary at very definite peniods dependent upon climatic conditions, honey flows and the separate status of each colony within its own hive. If these manipulations are not made at the proper time, it may mean the total loss of a crop for a given colony. Third—The preparation of the colony for any season's honey ^ow begins in the previous fall. Requeen in the middle of the summer, see t h a t an abundance of young bees are reared in the fail, and see that they have plenty of stores for winter. Then in the spring provide the care recommended in this paper and if there is a honey crop, your bees will get it.—American Fruit Grower. •X'YPHOID, cholera and other dangtr- X ous diseases are caused by genua that live on tilth. T h e * germs have their own deadly iocs in the bacilli family and it L» possible to start a war bctwecu these microscopic tribes, arranging the battle so that the germ foes of humanity arr destroyed by our bacilli friends. This is exactly what a septic tank does -—it furnishes a battietield where aaerobof the uquid runs tnto the smaller chamber and when it reaches a certain level, ia automatically discharged into the siphon and into the filter bed. As it leaves the smaller chamber the liquid appears clear but it is not pure because it may contain disease germs and solid matter held in suspense. This liquid is now spread out in the soil so that the aerobic bacilli can purify it. L t ^L± xn A teptic tank i» an underground box that receive* jrwajc, and by bacterial action liquiiiea it and kill* the diae&ae germs. Thia ia a cro»*-»*ction of a aeptic tank. The baffle-board ia an important part for the bacteria will not work if disturbed. Sewage aipbona out the outlet at the right and U taken through oooporoua tile to a diapoaal bed where bacteria from the air finish the purification. With ft septic tank any borne can have a modern bath-roomie bacilli that live without air can partially overcome the cohorts of typhoid, cholera, dysentery and hook worm and then drive these germs out where the aerobic bacilli that live in the air can attack them in their weakened condition and utterly vanquish them. A septic tank like the one shown is a disposal plant for the waste products of the human body and decaying animal and vegetable matter which are direct sources of the diseases mentioned. Typhoid, for instance, is more of a rural disease because sewage in rural districts is not as properly disposed of as it is in urban centers. This Ls evident from statistics of igio where, of 8,000 typhoid cases, 5,300 were among country dwellers. As shown in the illustration, the sewage enters the larger chamber of the septic tank where it is acted upon by the anerobic bacilli. They change solid matter into gases and liquids. A heavy scum forms on the surface of the chamber, indicating that the anerobic bacilli are working. It is essential that baffle boards be used as a protection for the scum. As the larger chamber fills, some Sewage should be carried to the septic tank through non-porous tile with cemented joints. Waste from the kitchen should be carried through a grease trap before reaching the tank ia order to remove al! the grease because grease does not decompose. Drain tile with open joints are used in the filter beds so that the liquid can soak into the soil and be purified. In determining the size of the larger chamber capacity of from 30 to 50 gallons per day per person in the household should be allowed. The smaller chamber should be large enough to permit the siphon to act once in six or eight hours. Septic tank walls should be made of a 1-3-3 mixture of concrete and this with Kood workmanship will insure that it is water tight. This means a mixture of one sack of portland cement to two cubic feet of sand and three cubic feet of pebbles or crushed stone Heavy wire or steel rods should be used for reinforcing the cover slabs, but reinforcing may be left out of the walls and bottom provided the thickness of these is increased. (f- The Farmer as a Plumber By E. W. LEHMANN ^ ) Farmers Should go Slow on Sowing Naked Oats ^ During: the last 50 or 60 years, attractive advertisements have led farmers from time to time to try to prow naked or hull-less oats. The • c r y fact t h a t t h e naked oat has gained no foot-hold in American agriculture after r e p u t e d attempts t o exploit it is sufficient proof of its inability to compete with the best common or hulled oats. Until a few years ago the variety commonly exploited WHS the Chinese Hull-less, which is now found on sterile mountain sides at high altitudes in northern and western China. Recently, however, some new hybrid •arietkss have been developed by crossing the Chinese Hull-less on the common oat. Of these, the Liberty Hulllesa, which was developed in Canada. has attracted the most attention. Th> new variety of naked oats has born frown on several of the filed stations w h e n the Office of Cereal Investigations, Bureau of Plant Industry. <Jnited States Department of Agriculia conducting experiments with A t no station hns the yield nf tke Liberty Hull-less compared favorably with t h a t of the best r * ~ ~ rarietie*.

While there is a small demand for oat kernels without hulls for feeding squabs and young1 chickens, it apparently will bf better economy to buy ordinary oats from which the hulls have been removed than to try tc grow hull-less or naked oats. For feeding1 farm stock, except hog's, the hull usually is considered an advantacre. I rather than a detriment, as it lightens j the ration and increase its bulk. N until high-yielcfing, smut-resistant and othcrwi.se better varieties of naked oats are developed and available wi!1 it be possible to recommend this type of oat as a safe crop for the farmer to grow.

There are many simple jobs of plumbing about the farm home, such as installing a sink and drain, connecting up a hot water tank and making repairs that the average fanner can easily do with the tools hi v.as at hand. When it is necessary to install a complete plumbing system with sanitary' toilet and other fixtures it is always desirable to get a good plumber to make the installation. In nearly °very community there is a plumber who will gladly cut and thread pipe to be used in making a simple installation. Most plumbers prefer that the farmer do these small jobs because the labor charge <m such work nearly always appears unreasonable. It is usually true that for the small job we can expect the labor charge to be a much larger per cent of the total cost than for a complete system. Under the city ordinance regulating the work of plumbing, it is specified that no plumbing of any kind shall be- done without a special permit from the supervisor of plumbing, whose duties are to inspect the work when complete to see that it meets all the requirements. This is necessary to protect the people against poorly installed plumbing, which would result in unsanitary and unhealthful conditions. Out in the open country beyond the city limits the farmer has only himself and family to consider. There are no laws governing the type of building he constructs or how his equipment is installed. Ilf should keep in mind, however, that what is good for- the protection of [ his city brother's family is also gooc. I for the protection of his own family. I Extreme care should be observed in j the installation of any plumbing i equipment. The principles of drain - I age and the principles of sanitation should always be kept in mind. Simplicity should be one of the chief points in planning a plumbing layout. In a simple, compact plumbing system there is less danjrer of stopping up, due to Ion? drainage lines, on account of gTeater distance between fixtures and the outlet drain. Where the bathroom is to be on the second floor, it is desirable always to plan so it can be directly above the kitchen and the kitchen above the laundry room or adjacent to it. If the bath and kitchen are to be on the same floor, it simplifies the plumbing to have the bath adjoining the kitchen. In remodeling an old house, or planning a new house, special ...Mention ! should be given to the plumbing "'.s-! t.^m. All pipe that are supposed to ;•>• into th" walls - aould h- nu: in ;r~ Ur. fconcp ic framed. Th'-re are many 1 examples where houses have been re- j rnie.'ed by country carpenters and no thought was given to the job of plumbing until the walls were plastered and the floors laid. This is where the owner has given no thought to the matter of plumbing. The farmer must not overlook the fact t h a t the work of the p l u m b e r and eh-e trieian must be carried on along with the c a r p e n t e r a n d brick mason. For simple installations about the b a r n , or house, the owner should very carefully take meu.s.iia i... tits and prep a r e a sketch of how the pipe a r e to be a r r a n g e d , showing the location of h y d r a n t s and fixtures. Such a sketch is valuable w h e t h e r he makes the installation or w h e t h e r it is installed by a plumber. If the owner dot's not h a v e tools for c u t t i n g and t h r e a d i n g pipe, he can t a k e the sketch to his local plumber and not only set ar. a c c u r a t e s t a t e m e n t of the cost of pipe and fittings to meet his needs, b i r also get the pipe cut and threaded so he can install it. If t h e r e a r e a good m a n y different pieces of pipe, it will save time to m a r k them and d e s i g n a t e t h e pieces on t h e sketch. This wi! make it easy to assemble the system later. The owner who i n s t a l l s his - i p l u m b i n g m u s t a l w a y s keep in mind the fact t h a t it LS i m p o r t a n t to connect the w a t e r pipes so t h e y can be d r a i n e d . If t h e w a t e r pipes do not d r a i n when t h e w a t e r is c u t off and the valves a r e opened in cold w e a t h e r , the w a t e r is liable to freeze and the pipes- may b u r s t . This has often happened, r e s u l t i n g in needless evpem and d i s c o u r a g e m e n t as f a r as the us" of p l u m b i n g is concerned. Any f a r m e r who can use a wrench can connect up a sink and d r a i n and a p u m p to provide w a t e r in thkitchen.

OUR POU PARTMENT Buy B a b y Chicks with C«vrc T h e buying of baby chicks is a far more i m p o r t a n t problem t h a n most p u r c h a s e r s realize. Baby chicks cons t i t u t e the foundation stock of the f u t u r e l a y e r s a n d b r e e d e r s and, t h e r e - fore, too much c a r e can not be exercised in deciding- upon the h a t c h e r y from which to buy. P o u l t r y e x p e r t s of t h e 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 h a v e observed t h a t p r a c t i c a l poultry r a i s e r s and f a r m e r s a r e relying upon the hatcheries more and more each succeeding y e a r a s a source of supply for t h e i r new c r o p of chicks. In o t h e r words, each y e a r sees fewer a n d fewer chicks hatched u n d e r hens and the m a m m o t h h a t c h e r i e s a r e t a k i n g the place, to a c e r t a i n extent, of the smaller i n c u b a t o r s which a r e commonly operated <>n the f a r m s . It is because of the fact t h a t f a r m e r s a r e buying baby chicks from the commercial hatcheries in such large n u m b e r s that the officials of the d e p a r t m e n t feel the necessity for u r g i n g them to exercise g r e a t c a r e in deciding upon where to buy this y e a r ' s supply of chicks. At the same time it should be pointed out that many f a r m e r s , p e r h a p s the majority, will still find it more economical to do t h e i r own hatching. T h i s is especially the case where the f a r m flock is of good s t a n d a r d quality and has been bred for egg production. A f a r m e r h a t c h i n g hia own ehiclknows the q u a l i t y of chicks he can expect. The commercial hatchery business has developed to a very r e m a r k a b l e extent in the United S t a t e s in the last two y e a r s . Some of the hatchery men have estimated t h a t practically double the n u m b e r of b a h v chicks will b< hatched in m a m m o t h hatcheries th; year compared with hist. There is a great increase 111 the number ef hatcheries, each c a r r y i n g in capacity from a few t h o u s a n d to several hundred t h o u s a n d chicks. The question of importance to a p u r c h a s e r of baby chicks is the source of supply of eggs for the hatcheries. Many of t h e hatcheries have their business well organized and are abl" to g u a r a n t e e the quality of the chicks. Some of the hatcheries, however, a r e not so p a r t i c u l a r where thev purchase the v^^v they use and are not able '• g u a r a n t e e high-quality chicks. P u r c h a s e r s of baby chicks would be woJl advised, officials of the d e p a r t - ment say, to make sure of purchasing from a reliable h a t c h e r y . Only p u r e bred chicks should be bought and 11 addition to this, the p u r c h a s e r should insist upon a s a t i s f a c t o r y statenit nt from the h a t c h e r y man as to the qua! ity of v^C^ used, Were the eggs from a s t a n d a r d - b r e d flock with trap-m-si records and w a s the flock in good breeding condition?

It is b e t ' c to pay a few cents more for a g(*xi quality chicks t h a t can !K? g u a r a n - teed. _ — _ — . 0 First C a r e of B a b y Chicks This is the season of the y e a r when a r r a n g e m v n t s m u s t be made to raise chicks to replenish the poultry flocks. Pullets are the most profitable p a r t of the l a y i n g flock and a well-balanced laying flock should consist of **t least naif pullets; which allows careful culling of the hens d u r i n g thi summer and fall before the pullets a r e m a t u r e d . Baby chicks n"od especially careful attention in breeding and feeding d u r - ing the first weeks of their lives, which should be followed by careful and r e g u l a r a t t e n t i o n t h r o u g h o u t theii g r o w i n g period. E a r l y hatched chicka r e by far the most profitable w h e t h e r grown to m a t u r i t y for laying or sold as poultry flesh. The brooder house and stove h e a t e r which are used for c a r i n g for th' chicks d u r i n g the first few weeks r? their lives, must be in working o r d e r before the chicks a r r i v e .

Chicks should riot bw fed for the first '.% to 4* hours, after which they bhuuld be supplied r e g u l a r l y 4 or ."> times daily with easily digested feed which contains little waste m a t e r i a l . They should be fed s p a r i n g l y until about the f>th d a y ; then they can be put on full ration. An excellent feed can be made of infertile eggs t a k e n from th incubator boiled for 15 minutes, chopped and mixed with a d r y mash of equal p a r t s of c r a c k e r meal, bran and e r ;. meal, using a sufficient a m o u n t of the g r a m to make a dry, crumbly m i x t u r e . Middlings can be used in place of the cracked meal. Dry rolled oats a r e excellent for chicks and can be used a s one feed, the other two or t h r e e feeds being the commercial chick g r a i n s . At two weeks of age t h e chicks can be g-iven a dry mash, in a hopper, consisting of 4 p a r t s , by weight, of rolled cats, 12 p a r t s b r a n , 2 p a r t s corn meal, 1 p a r t h i g h - g r a d e m e a t s c r a p , 1 p a r t middlings, and ln p a r t dried b u t t e r milk. Commercial chick feed should be fed t h r e e t i m e s daily in addition to the dry mash. Milk is an excellent feed for chicks and should be provided e i t h e r as a liquid or in the d r y form to s e c u r e best g r o w t h . If liquid milk is available the dried milk can be omitted. When the chicks a r e one month old they should be fed a c o a r s e r or intermediate chick g r a i n , a n d a t about twe months of age the scratch feed can be changed to equal p a r t s of w h e a t and cracked corn. T h i s should be fed two or three times a day.

In a large measure t h e criterion of success in t u r k e y r a i s i n g is the n u m b e r of fully matured t u r k e y s raised in prop o r t i o n to the total number of eggs set. Therefore the ejrgs as laid must be given the very best a t t e n t i o n . High fertility is desirable, and incubation should IK- carried out in such a way t h a t as many of the eggs as possible will hatch. N a t u r a l l y , the vigor of the breeding stock and the mariner iti .vhich it has been m a n a g e d will deli rmine in large degree the quality of t he h a t c h i n g eggs. The eggs should be collected regularly every day ami kept in a room at a t e m p e r a t u r e of from 50 to GO degrees F. They should be t u r n e d every day, but should be handled carefully and should not be kept for over two weeks. The period of incubation of t u r k e y eggs is 2S days, and the method of incubation is much the same as with chicken eggs. T u r k e y eggs can be incubated under chicken hens, t u r k e y hens, or in incubators. If chicken hens a r e used to incubate t u r k e y eg'gs, c a r e must be taken not to give the hen too many eggs, as from '.' to 12 a r e quite sufficient, depending upon the size of the hen as well as the size of t h e eggs. Nesting a r r a n g e m e n t s a s well as other m a t t e r s a r e practically the s a m e as in i n c u b a t i n g chicken eggs The s i t t i n g hen should be fed dailv and given a chance to exercise. When the t u r k e y hen is ailowed to sit on her own eggs, conditions a r " much the same as with t h e chicken hen. T u r k e y hens will cover from 15 to 20 eggs. Nests are most conveniently a r r a n g e d on the ground or in boxes- t be disturbed. At the same time she should bo taken off daily and allowed to exercise and should l>e given plenty of w a t e r to drink, and clean, wholesome feod, such as a m i x t u r e of wheat and oats. When the turkey hen becomes broody she should be allowed to sit on the nest for two or t h r e e days before being i n t r u s t e d with t h e egxs. When she has remained on t h e noi-t f< : two or thee d -he should then b> given her eggs and attended to as suggested. If a n u m b e r of hens a r e sitt i n g at the same time, c a r e should be taken to see t h a t they jret back to t h " nests properly and t h a t no nest is left uncovered. Both chicken and t u r k e y hens, while s i t t i n g on t u r k e y o^<, should be d isted with sodium florid, u s i n g a small n;nch u n d e r each w i n g , a r o u n d t h " thigh joint., over the back, u n d e r the body and a r o u n d the vent. In t h h way the hen is rid of lice and thp poults at h a t c h i n g t i m e s a r e not liable to be infested w i t h t h e parrvsit.es.

T W f u n d A m e a t a l Rights of Childhood T h e r e is a good deal of expense connected with the proper rearing' of idhdUren. Fathers and mothers and attboel tatx payers are well aware that I boys and girls "cost money." But •in. spite of this fact children are an not a liability. Few parents say that children are not «r«rth all they cost. If the parents far a n y reason can not provide for their children and this duty falls to the community, the children are none the leea a community asset. Certainly therefore the care and provision which children require is not to be given merely as an act of kindness and humanity. It is the children's right. There is a minimum of care which tfl due to every child. If all chJUreo. do not receive it the com- -jaoflBity suffers. Let us sum up these rights of children, briefly, and then go on to find out how the community can assure them to all its children. In the light of the best present knowledge it is generally agreed that ail children have a right to the best of care before birth—for the care of the child begins with the care of t h e mother before the baby comes— and at birth. They have a right to c o n e in\o a home prepared for them They have a right to pure food suited to their needs and given at regular hours: at first their mother's narsing them and then simple, wellchosen, well-prepared meals. They have a right to enough food and tho right kind of food to keep them steadily growing and gaining in w e i g h t They have a right to a clean well-kept home, not overcrowded They have a right to plenty of fresh air and pure water. They have a right to warm rooms and warm clothing in cold weather. They have a right to clean and suitable clothing and to properly fitting shoes. They have a right to sanitary conveniences which make it easy for them to keep clean. They have a right to be taught habits of cleanliness concerning the body, face and hands, and teeth. They have a right to be protected against communicable diseases and to be taught the ways of keeping well. They have a right to regulai health examinations by doctor and dentist and to treatment for any defects that occur. They have a right to healthy play, and so they have a right to safe outdoor play space. Indoors too, they have a right to some place where their play will not be restricted. They have a right to playmates and companions and to sympathetic interest from adults. They have a right to play material and tools. They have a right to freedom from all except light household or outdoors work so that they may go to school and have the extra strength they need for growth. They have this right as long as they are growing, or at least until 16, and they have a right to education to the limit of their abilities. They have a right to moral training and the influence of a good example. Now all of these rights are usuallj best secured in a normal family home. We may say, without any doubt, that every child has a right to home life, with an income on the father's part that will allow him to provide the things just now summed up. If the father's income does not enable him to give his children all they ought to have, the community must help.

Miss Ella Schimke "Now comes her story and Uncle Ernest guesses that she is some story teller and surely is entitled to a prize >for such a good long, interesting story. : She gives "Shary Eyes" credit for the Story.

AIthough the others were not yet up, it « m t a » t early. I knew it being Saturd a y "there was a lot of work to do, but I didn't know where to start.

I was so busy that I nearly forg o t to get dinner, but I didn't though. after the dinner dishes were all t h a t was left was to bake bread, so I thought I would make calces, and I did too.

At our house we never grow tired of them, and we're always trying out new egg d*shes. Here are a few dishes, perhaps you would enjoy too, for a change. Baked Egg»—Run one cup cold boiled ham through fjood chopper, together with one-half cp bread crumbs, add salt and pepper to taste, with one teaspoon butter, add just enough milk to make a soft paste, butter the custard cups well; and half fill them with the above mixture. Break an egg in each cup, season, and cover with cracker crumbs. Place the cups in boiling water and bake until eggs are set. This will take about, 12 minutes. Angel Food Padding—Why not have whipped cream, together with an angel food pudding for dessert? It's delicious. To two well-beaten eggs add one cup powdered sugar, and one* tablespoon flour, together with two cups chopped walnut meats pouT into a baking dish, set in a pan of boiling water and cook 45 minutes. Let it remain in the water until cool, then serve with whipped cream. Fried Potato** and Eggt—Slice cold boiled potatoes and frying butter till nicely browned. Just before you remove them from the fire, add two well-beaten eggs and stir well. This makes a nice change from plain potatoes. Eggi and Oy»ter§—Beat three eggs until frothy, add one tablespoon sweet cream, with salt and pepper to to taste. Melt one tablespoon butter in a small pan, pour in the eggs, and stir over a low fire. When the mixture begins to thicken, add one cup oyster and cook till all is a soft creamy mass. Serve with or without buttered toast. Balloon Muffins Beat with an egg-beater very thoroughly but separately: Two eggs; one-half pint of milk; one-half pint of water; one pint of flour. Bake in greased muffin rings in a very hot oven about 20 minutes, or until brown. Breaded Potatoes For a change in serving potatoes try this plan. Select small potatoes, pare and boil in salt water. Drain, roll in beaten eggs and cracker crumbs and brown in deep fat made of half butter and half bacon frying. These are fine served with a fish or meat course. Cream Nat Fadge Bring slowly t o boiling point two cups granulated sugar two-third cup sweet milk. Boil until it forms a soft ball in cold water. Remove from fire and add one teaspoonful vanilla, one tablespoonfulj butter and one cup chopped nut meats. Stir until smooth, then pour onto a buttered plate or tin and mark into squares. Hinti Insert a small piece of macaroni or a paper into your berry pies. It will act as a steam pip* and the juice will not boil over. No oven to clean. An excellent way to cook prunes is to cover with water in a covered jar :-.nd cook in oven. If the ribbon ends of a blanket are torn finish with a double crochet edge with a bone hook. When the children lose the tips off their shoestrings dip the ends in mucilage and let them dry. Never burn old shoes. Bury them r e a r the roots of some tree shrub or in the garden to enrich the soil.

For luncheon some kind of a creamed dish on toast is good with possibly a pudding for dessert. Macaroni or spaghetti dishes make a good and substantial dinner as well as a very economical one, Besides these, there are all kinds of cakes and pies and cookies; the list is almost endless. There is hardly any food that can be used in so many different ways as wheat in combinations with other foods. That is one reason why we never tire of it. 25 H i l l llll B(« M M M T h e H o m e B e a u t i f u l l The Wallinf ord A Farm Home for the Large Family » TTTT M well, the man who made it made no mistake for it cuts dandy. I am a boy so if I win the riddle contest send me a boy's prize. J. C. Herald. Hit the Owl In the good old days, an attorn^yat- law advertised for an office boy. At the appointed hour he faced the applicants extending in a line from one end of the office to the door. "Boys," he said, "I am going to tell you a story- When I have finished I want each of you to ask mo a question about that story'' The boy that asks the best question gets the job. "A farmer looked out of the window one morning and saw an o\v perched on the roof of his b a m . H( got his shotgun, went out into t.h' yard .took deliberate aim at the owi and fired. A moment later he noticed a small column of smoke cominp out of the top of the barn. Soon the entire barn was in flames. And 'hu> ends the story of the Farmer and the Owl. Xow boys, ask your questions.1 the lawyer said. "Was tho barn insured?" askeel one. "Did the wads from the shell start tho fire°" asked another. "Did th<> farmer build a m-w barn?" asked the third. F i n a l l y , a small red-headed, freckled-faced lad at the end of the line said: "Did he hit the owl?" The boy was hired.— Send your letters to Uncle E r n e s t 5¾ Market Ave., S. W., Grand Rapids, Michigan. Fl2-5T FlOOB. PLAH This roomy house—the Wallingford— has been designed to m e e t the needs of the modern farmer. The outside has cozy and homelike appearance. It would look equally well on the treeless prairie of the west or on the wooded hill sides of j New England. A solid substantial effect ia given by the arrangement of , porches neither of which are built ,on but are part of the general floor '. plan. The openings of the front 'porch are lined with trellis for vines which with foundation shrub's and plants alwayf* add to the restful ness of an exterior. A color combination of light portland cement stucco with green trim and shutters and either a bright red or green roof will be entirely pleasing. A model of convenience, this plan takes into consideration the need for large rooms during the harvest seam SCCGND FLOOR PLAN son. Here is a living room 18 feet by 13 feet with a comfortable fireplace for long winter days and ventilation from all sides in hot weather. An unusually large dining room is adjoining. The kitchen contains large cupboards and a china closet which can be opened on the dining room side also. The screened porch should prove convenient for housework on hot days or as a place to take the family meals. Under this porch is a large concrete rain water tank. From the rear entry the men can go directly into the wash room to clean up before entering the house. This entry has stairs leading to tb« basement, one half of which is planned for the storage of fruit, seed, etc., an the other half contains laundry and boiled room. At the east end of the house, shut off from the other rooms, is the farmer's office so essential on the modern farm for keeping records of stock and farm operations. Upstairs there are four good bed rooms with plenty of good closet space in each and also a small room for sewing or additional storage. Built of concrete block covered with portland cement stucco and roofed with a fire resistive material like concrete tile or cement-asbestos shingle, this home will be safe against fire so much dreaded on t h i lonely farm.

Most of these tasks require the work of two men*—grinding tools, grinding feed, cleaning gTain, clipping horses or cow». While if you have a Westinghouse Portable Power Stand yo« have but "to attach the cord to a lamp socket, belt it to the ap^ pliance you intend to use and turn on the electriciiy. Around the house it will operate the churn, cream separator, washing machine, meat grinder, ice cream freezer and many other household appliances. Wherever it is use* it does t h e work of an extra helper, doing the work better and at a much lower cost. You can afford to own a Westinghouse Light and Power Plant. And you can't afford to be without one installed on your farm. Westinghouse with its great engineering organization has developed a Light and Power Plant that is equalled by none. tor its simplicity and refinement of construction, ease of opera*- tion, ruggedness and large capacity of its storage batteries^ We are furnishing a great number of Westinghoose Batteries for replacement on all kind- t lighting plants. It will pay you to investigate before you buy. Baytin Marin Silas Ci. 13 Oakes St, Grand Rapids, Mid*.

WATER TROUGHS By W. G. KAISER Agricultural Engineer THE construction of a concrete trough like that shown in the drawing is not a. difficult task and any U r m c r can build it. A watering trough should be placed on well drained ground, because under the best of conditions the livestock will in time make mud holes unless a platform is built, or the boles around the trough As the concrete is placed it should be spaded next to the forms in ordrr to force the larger rocki. back into the mass. and let the mortar work out a^ain^t the forms, resulting in a smooth, den-*.- bur face. As soon as the concrete has hardened sufficiently to be sell-sustaining, the inside form is removed and the interior OUR POU PARTMENT W h e n you get this tank finished it will last as long ms you'll probably r w r need it. are filled in as soon as they are made Sometimes it is advisable to put the trough on a small knoll in order that the water will quickly drain away. T h e ground under the trough should oot only be drained but also leveled and packed. T h e outside forms of the trough are made of one inch boards and 2 by 4-inch pieces as shown in the drawing. After these forms have been securely braced, the concrete can be deposited in the bottom to half the depth of the floor. Reinforcement consisting of I\ inch round rods are then placed on the partly constructed floor. These rods are bent in " U " shape so that the ends will project u p into t h e sides a n d reinforce the walls. All the rods are bent to the proper shape before any concrete work is started, so that they can be quickly put in and the remainder of the concrete floor placed without delay or making any joints. The inside form which has been made previous to mixing any of the concrete is then quickly lowered in proper place and fastened to the outside forms with clamps as shown in the drawing. Speed is necessary in order that the walls can quickly be placed so there will be a strong bond between walls and floors. In order to insure water-tightness a :: 2:3 mixture of concrete is recommended. This means 1 sack of cement to 2 cubic feet of sand and 3 cubic feet of pebbles or crushed rock. The aggregates should be free from sticks, soil or foreign material. Only enough clean water should be used in mixing to make concrete of a jelly-like consistency. Concrete pavement? of the trough given a cement wash made by mixing cement and water until it is about as thick a s cream. This wash can be p u t on with a n ordinary brush or broom. T h e wash will m a k e a smooth surface a n d insure water-tightness. The new trough should be kept moist by sprinkling for at least 10 days before using. The inside of the trough is given a slope o u t w a r d t o w a r d the top. This is important because if water freezes in the tank, the pressure will lift the ice and thereby prevent the formation of cracks in the walls. For a trough of the size shown in the drawing, the following materials will be needed: M A T E R I A L S R E Q U I R E D F O R T A N K Outside dimensions 3 ft. 2 in. b y 8 ft.

Regular habits in eating, sleeping and exercise can hardly be started Lou early. But character training becomes most important when the child is first conscious of his own individuality, when he realizes that he is something different from th erest of the world. At the age of about threo to six years children begin to enjoyment of secrets. tention can be attracted when someone says: let me tell you a secret.' cause he is just beginning to realize his own individuality. It dawns upon him that the contents of his mind can not be seen or known by other people. About this age many children pass through a period of being' contrary and defiant. At the -aame time they are much influenced by suggestions. A child of four may refuse to eat some article of food and afterwards cry for it when he is told he cannot have it. This period soon passes over and if the child is tactfully managed it will" be very short. Obedience to commands should be secured always, and the child.should understand the difference between a command and a suggestion,—but commands should be few and simple. They will have greater force than if they are frequent, and control can usually be secured by other means. The young child is very sensitive, and praise for the good goes farther than blame for the bad. If you praise him for being good and tell someone how good he has been, he is good. But if he hears you say he is bad, he believes it, and is bad. In the same way, if he hears you say, for instance .that he can not sing, he believes it and he does not learn to sing. Many cases of delinquency or of inability to do certain things in later life can be traced to the mental impressions of the early years. About the beginning of the school age, children usually take another definite step in character development. The school supplements the home in the work of training, but the greatest influence at this period is the influence of other children. Group standards have great weight with the school child. He suffers keenly if he has to go against the standards of other children of his age, if he is compelled to wear a tt-anmurk arid loyalty. But his group or gang needs leadership and while they usually find it from an older one of their number, this leader him.self needs leadership and ideas. Boys and girls are very quick to follow the lead of an expert Scout master or club leader or coach. They are fond of feeling useful and important, A wise man said he could make over an unruly gang with a yard of ribbon for badges. The discipline which boys will undergo to win the letters which are worn by a school team is a proof of this point. j By the age of twelve the child has formed habits hard to change later, | habits regarding the care of the body and everyday behavior and politeness [The forming of these habits is influenced by the standards of the persons whom the child looks up to. He is very imitative up to this age and the parent who is patient and courteous with a child has in the long run a child who is also courteous. If a child is persistently hard to manage, it is usually on account of unwise management in earlier years, | when the child finds out perhaps that crying -and coaxing will get him something which has been forbidden. If trTe training of the early years has : Pattern No. 424 been consistent, at the school age children usually can be controlled !

A Story of Michigan in Civil War Days \r .'# w/A-•r/^yaC^"'*^/'^. :<v-"'>^ >» ^ CHAPTER VI. Two of a Kind- There was an instant's struggle. Clang felt the ground, slipping from beneath hia feet—he was going down. Captured at last! And over the river tumped the drum, while cheers of the excited populace gTeeted his ears. He would soon stand cringing before his masters! Fate had been against him from the start. He made one effort, then sank helplessly prostrate. "So you would defy the Yankee government, T h o r n t o n Clang-" as a boy, thrilled over them. But, when the test came be stood, not with Jackson, but with the nullifiers as represented by Calhoun and Yancy. beard, shaded by a down-drawn hat brim, was really not the smooth, fair countenance of the old-time jolly Darwin Forbes. A sudden hush fell as the mac stepped into the circle about the fire. One of the large boys eyed Lhsj newcomer keenly. Jack Perkins had found it difficult to breathe in the crowded hall and had sought the outor air. "Come to enlist?" queried he suddenly. There was a familiar look about the man despite his change of apparel and his sodden countenance. The boy was curious and alert. He was an enthusiast where the Union was concerned. To call the old flag jeered a voice. "You succumb to Thornton Clang?" sneered the other "Come on," urged Forbes, taking 1a d l r t v r a * i n ^ presence would his companion by the arm. h a v e * * * " ^ l n v i t e l r ^ i m t battle. "What's the use?" demanded j I n every stranger, too, Jack scented Thornton. "Those folks across the river did not invite u.s; we'd best stay away." "We might surprise 'em all the same." "And be made the butt of Abolition jokes! Not for me, Forbes." "Is this your boasted courage, than go south to shoot your brethren one puny man! to be sure!"

Them fellows have chuckld, and muttered: "If there added 'coward 'to their vocabulay was only a reward now!" And then Thornton felt sudden relief. A hand jerked him to his feet, "Mebbe 1 shall." muttered Forbes in v. ply. "Better jro ri^ht inside and hear Cap'n Ranger." "What, is that blasted thief talking?" burst out the man with sudden feeling. Ranger had on one occasion defeated Forbes for a petty job and How weak we a r e l . .

He continued to eye the newcomer keenly. The voicv struck a note of remembrance which Forbes had been incautious enough not while the face of a companion in iniquity grinned at him through the gloom. "You, Darwin Forbes!" gasped the relieved conscript. "Does it look like anybody else, Thornt?" The speaker was shaking with inward laughter. He held his sides and churtled and snickered in a way that made the other furious. "Shut up, you blamed roared Thornton. "Do you hear that? The patriots are making a big noise preparatory to departure for the South." "Well, I ain't deaf," informed Forbes. "Did I frighten you bad, Thornt?" "No, of course not " "Served ye right if I did. What foolishness to beard the tiger in his lair. Don't you know there's men in the Burridge gang that would delight to snap you up and turn you over? Hear them devils yellin' like coyotes! Huh, I'd like to wrastle old Delwater for the peanuts. Say, what when speaking of you. Do you like *° dlsgiiise. it?

Although we can't see it for the darkness, I know the rag floats there. It may be unguarded, Thornt, let's steal up in the dark and pull down the gridiron and stamp it into the ground!" The speaker seemed beside himself with rage. "That rag, Forbes—what do fool!"j mean?" "I mean the gridiron these Yankee hireling sneaks yell themselves hoarse over—the old flag if you please, a dirty Abolition rag that's—" "My God, stop, Darwin Forbes!" commanded the listener in husky horror. "How dare you speak like this of—of our flag?" "Faugh!" burst forth Forbes, the deepest contempt in his voice. "Don't call that rag our flag. Why, don't you know that ours has a crops with stars? that three bars and a circle of stars is the one we worship? Hurrah for the Southern Confederacy!" "Hush, Forbes, hush." warned Clan;:;, his face white and quivering. a captain," muttered Forbes. "Well, he's a good one! It needs a foreigner to lead in this crusade against the South. These gosling chaps from Canada way are gittin' to the front like ducks in water. I'd think Old Abe'd be plumb ashamed of sich company." "See here!" exclaimed Jack Perkins, bridling instantly. "We haven't any use for traitors in Logtown. What you here for? I'll be blessed if I don't beilieve vou are one of them draft youUneaks~"' Forbes lifted his face and scowled. His teeth were set and an angry light shone in his eyes. For a half minute boy and man faced each other, glaring defiance, then a low cry fell from young Perkins. "You're Darwin Forbe-s!" he exclaimed. "I thought I knew yon." Jack sprang across tTie separating space and caught the arm of the illvisaged conscript. "Call an office]1, buys, quick!' shouted the boy. Several started to do his bidding. The muscles in the arms of Forbes swelled like whip-cords. His fist was raised one instant, then shot straight forward with terrific force. Jack Perkins measured his length on the gras.-.

Jack began working his way forward. There were ladies present at the meeting, and Jack felt a pair of eyes riveted on him as he advanced. Half way to the enrolling desk Jack Perkins halted. His impulse came near landing him within the folds of Uncle Sam's army-—not quite. He halted with a recoil. What was he about to do? This was no time for rash action. Bounties were uncertain elements just now. He shrank with grim inward quaking when he thought how near he had come to losing his presence of mind. He would stand by Rachel even if he lost caste in the community. He knew she had been ostracised by the better element of society on Hemlock Run. He was not blaming the people, since the wife of a traitor and coward must needs shoulder a part of his iniquity. "Here's another soldier for Uncle Sam!" shouted a voice as a hand pushed the Perkins boy forward. Jack surged backward and scowled. "Jack Perkins, by thunder! This way, Jack, I'm with you there!" A tall youth pushed forward with extended hand. Josiah Meadows was a good friend of Jack, and had all along agreed to enlist whenever his neighbor said the word. Perkins smiled grimly as he felt Josiah's hand in his, "No, 'Siah, no!" exclaimed J nek. "I forgot—I cannot go tonight. Later I may think about it." "Now is the accepted time, my hid," urged a voice. "Yer a plumb fool it veh do «o." .sn«Hjred another voice. "What the 'ell d'ye want to be made a target of jest fur a passel of blamed niggers! Stand fur yer rights, Jack. We know what yeh think. Thornton's the best man in the community, and the hull county's yellin' mad at his heels coz he won't go back en his prhieiples." (To Be Contir.i:. d > WEEK OF MARCH 16 The average conditions to expect He Trie* to Co-operate In an English school the children had been examined, and their eyej tested, according to the education authority's latest decree. Those who were suffering from defects hau notes given them to take home. Among the note-bearera was one of the name of Willie Jones, and the note he bore was as follows: "Dear Sir—I wiBh to inform you for the week of March 16 in Michi that your son William show* signs gan will be precipitation above the [ ° f astigmatism, which ougrht to be average. This may be in rain or ^^¾¾ ts= Happenings ings of the Lincoln crowd. Come on, old man, let's go over." The man thus importuned turned and walked a shoYt way with his companion in misery. Why should he fear? His country's flag waver from the top of the staff before the town hall, the flag that had floated over Perry on Erie's wave, the gorgeous ensign of the Republic! Had he r.ot a right to stand beneath the folds of that banner and feel proud of his citizenship? Truly. He marched on beside Forbes, breathing in the cooling atmosphere of the wooda, feeling new life and hope coursing through his veins. Of a sudden he came to a halt They had reached the end of the bridge spanning the river. A wild blare of music floated across the water. The flag was waving, the crowd shouting, general enthusiasm prevailing and he was not a part of it all. "Ain't you coming, Thornt?" demanded Forbes, who halted and faced his friend. "What's the use, Darwin? You know—" "Yes, I know we ain't in it with the rest of the boys. Shall I tell ye why? the Stars and Stripes if I would, Forbes." "Then, if you think so blamed much of the gridiron, why in the name of the devil don't you fight under it? Or is it tjue, as they say, that you are more of a coward t.ho" a Southern sympathizer?" The clinched hands of the listener, his scowl of anger and quake of limbs betokened the manner of thought that met the words of Forbes. He controlled" himself with an effort. Was he what his friend suggested—a coward? Had he the courage of his convictions? "I will not argue," he said simply. "I should think not," sneered his companion. "I am going to cross the river; again I dare you to follow." Forbes turned with a scoff and stepped briskly forward upon the bridge. Clang stood stolid, waiting. Once he leaned and wavered. It had been something to take a dare in his boyhood days. Now—well, tonight it was different. He had no desire to go among his enemies. He felt that Forbes was foolhardy to think of it for a moment. "Come on," called a voice from It's for the good reason that we can't. far out upon the bridge. For artstomach Old Abe and his methods.

Forbes had heard this argument j Forbes did not linger. He was confrom more learned men than himself; tvinced that his friend vras not cornhe may have believed it. At any r a t e ; ^ arid* he had fully decided to look those men of intellect and power who,jn u p o n the meeting before the town go about dealing in cutting witti-;nRn. u p the stream a few miles in sore need of more boys in blue at the front. "I know all about that," he said with a sud smile, when someone called his attention to the draftevaders. "Theres enough of them to fill our quota, but even though we had every man jack of 'em here tonight it would not change the conditions. The Seventh is a strictly volunteer organization. We will have no conscript in our ranks. They will be sent to the front to fill into the depleted ranks of old regiments where they cannot hope to escape their just duties." "Why don't you smoke out the d—d Rebs?" shouted a voice. "That is what we have been trying our best today. You know how that brave man, Tom Woodrow, came near losing his life trying to get one of the draft sneaks. It is hard to smoke out the rascals when they have friends right among you who aid in secreting them. Let the cowards go; we can win our battles without their help. I can honor an honorable though misguided enemy; these home traitors are beneath an honest man's contempt." Such were the words, met with a ringing cheer, that greeted the ears of Jack Perkins when he entered the room. His head was swelling from Fhidson Maxin. scientist and inventor, believes tea and coffee to be intoxicants within the meaning of the Volstead act and threatens to brin^ suit to close cafes in which these beverages are served unless the enforcement authorities do something about it.

March is one of the transition months of the year and temperatures normally are rising gradually to and above the freezing line, hence a little variation one way or the other will either freeze or thaw the precipitation. We believe, however, that the week will be mild for the season. Thawing Weartber; Fltxxi* In those sections of the state where snow is Btill on the ground, this week will make short work oi a great quantity. This naturally means higher river stages, and we believe it will be only the alternate freezes temporarily stopping wholesale melting of snow that will avert dangerous and destructive flooding. There will be two high temperature points this week in the state, one very close to Sunday and the other on or close to Wednesday. As temperatures will be gradually on the increase from the 12th, we expect the highest point for this week wiD be reached during the middle part. Following each crest there will be a sharp reaction to cooler, affecting Michigan about Monday, Thursday and Saturday. Muck Wind Movement The storm areas that will effect the state will produce considerable wind movement during and afte! their transit. Moderate rains oi snow flurries at beginning of week will end with high winds during Monday or Tuesday and clearing. What will probably prove to be a more severe storm than that of the early part of the week will hit Michigan during the middle to latter part. Winds will amount to gales on the Great Lakes surrounding Michigan, endangering early shipping. During this time rainfall will be moderately heavy in many parts of the state. The week loses with generally fair weather in the state and temperatures decidedly lower than those expected during middle part of week. o Preliminary reports received by nireiYe.- ident Coolidge on the tariff c mission's wheat investigation arc parried by him as indicating that tlv present wheat duties of :10 cents a bushel probably should be increased.

Up to a recent date the boy had thought it his duty to enlist. Of late, however, a change had come over the spirit of his dream. Why it was may readily be imagined. The act of his brother-in-law in turning against the Government, making himself an outlaw, decided Jack to remain and look after Rachel, gloomed the bustling city of Wing-! who was his only living relative, ar>d dam.

Her cowardly husband, as matters stood, was no help to her. When the beak of the law should fasten him, as it was sure, sooner or later, to do, poor Rachel would have a hard time to make both ends meet Jack felt deeply on this subject. For Clang he had only furious anger and contempt. Rachel, by clinging to him, had angered her brother, but she was still his sister, which fact never once left his consciousness, and he was in duty bound to stay by her to the_end.

A young woman who was reared in an Eastern Kansas town read i>i a poultry journal that poultry-raising was remunerative, ao she decided to try it. She purchased a hen and set her on thirteen eggs. She wrote to a poultry journal that poultry-raising was much to her liking and wondered how long the hen should remain on the eggs. The paper wrote back, "Three weeks for chickens and four weeks for ducks.' Later she wrote to the poultry journal as follows: "Many thanks for your advice about the setting hen. She remained on the neti three weeks and at the end of that time there were no chickens hatchd. As I did not care for ducks, I took her off the nest and sold the eggs."—Exchange. o Clever at That Elsie, aged six, returned unusually early from school the other day. She rang the door bell.

Government Standard Grain Alcohol We can also furnish you Government Standard grain alcohol for your radiator at 85c a gallon. A simple test to tell that you are buying pure grain alcohol is to place a sample of it in a spoon—set it in a fire. If there is a residue left in your spoon after fire burns out it isn't of good quality and you are either paying for water or other ingredients that may be harmful to your motor.

The very words, ^starting to school," make one think of t h e morning scene so frequent in American homes—the scene we do aot like to think of as typical because we always resolve it will not happen again, b u t which somehow keeps on happening: Late rising, time for only a hurried breakfast and a hurried trip to school. The children may eat too little or e a t sa rapidly that digestion is interfered with. In either case they have not the energy they need for the morning's work; they tire easily and they are to« tired to eat well at noon. If a meal is slighted the loss is hard to make up later. The same thing is t r u e if the lunch is hurried or inade. quate and this is one of the great points in favor of the hot lunch -served at school. The time has passed when schools were expected onl»* to train the mind without consideration of the body. In many communities school nurses and doctors are employed to give regular examinations to all the pupils; nourishing fo<,d is provided in the schools for any meals the children can not take at home; personal hygiene is taught and games and exercise to develop the body properly are directed by expert leaders. But no matter how much the schools may do for children's health, the greatest res e n s i b i l i t y rests with the parents. P a r e n t s know that schcol children need several hours more sleep than adults. The number of hours they need can be tested on a Saturday or Sunday or holiday morning, letting them sleep till they awaken naturally. Fix their bedtime at any hour early enough that they may waken naturally every morning. P a r e n t s should see that school physical ar d mental strain. While they need activity of all kinds, nothing they do should be carried to thr point of fatigue. Children need more food in proportion '„o their weight than adult; need. Between six and twelve they are said to need about three-fourths as much as an average man, and over twelve they may need almost as much as a man. This again is because their food must provide for growth as well as for body repairs It is more important for children than for adults'that their food should be simple and easily digested because their digestive systems are so much more easily disturbed. Don't take any risks "just once" with foods that you know are hard to digest Again it is more important for chil- ' dren than it is for adults to have an adequate supply of the special growt) -producing foods or proteins, and te have sufficient minerals and vitamines. Children need calcium and phosphorus for the growth of thtbones and teeth and tissues, and iron to help the blood carry on its work The foods which more thkn any others insure these elements in the diet are milk, butter and eggs, together with green vegetables and fruits. Whole grains aiso are valuable for these elements, and bread and cereals | furnish a considerabteVpart of children's heat and e n e r g y . ^ Q o n ' t over- ] do the sweets. That is"^vhere the j mother's wisdom and care must be exercised. All of us tend to over- | eat this class of food. 1 The meals should be balanced. Plan everv meal to contain some P a t t e r n No. 3 2 1 There are few persons who don't like hot muffins or pop-overs. They are easy to make, delicious and wholesome. The materials that go into them, principally flour, milk und eggs, make a particularly nutritious combination. Whole wheat muffins with butter and a glass of milk, for instance, make an excellent luncheon combination because together they contain practically all of the food elements the body requires. Plain Muffins Two cups bread flour or two and one-quarter cups pastry flour, three teaspoons baking powder, one-half tea- ;,oon salt, two teaspoons sugar, one or two eggs, one and one-half cups sweet milk, three tablespoons shortening. This recipe will make eight large or twelve of medium size. If sour milk is used instead of sweet, use one half teaspoon soda and one teaspoon baking powder. Sift the soda with the other dry ingredients. All measurements a r e level. Sift the flour once before measuring. Mix and sift the dry ingredients. Beat the egg slightly and add the milk to it. Pour the liquid into the dry ingredients, mixing thoroughly Add the melted shortening last. Bake 11; well greased muffin pans in a hot oven (400 degrees F.) about -5 minutes. If the muffins hump up to much in •he center and crack open, it means that there is a little too much flour f>T the kind you arc- using. If this happens, make a note of it on the recipe so that when you make them aeain vou can use the right amount vo ur kind of flour. Pattern No. 424 The<o plain muffins may be varied by o.sing more sucrar anrl more shortening and some kind of fruit, such as dates, blueberries or cranberries. If cranberries are used, cut them in half and dip them in sugar beforw they a r e mixed with the batter. These a r e delicious. Chocolate muffins make u rather good variation. The chocolate is melted and added to the batter with the shortening. W h o l e Wheat Muffin* T h r e t cups whole wheat flour two cups milk, one and one-half teaspoon salt, six tublespoonf ul sugar, four and one-half teaspoon baking powder, one egg, one tablespoon shortening. This recipe will make twelve large muffins. If sour milk is substituted for sweet, use one teaspoon soda and onehaJf teaspoon baking powder. Sift the soda with the other dry ingredients. All measurements are level. Meas ure the whole wheat flour before sifting. Mix together the dry ingredients. Stir t h e bran that is sifted out back into the dry ingredients. Mix the milk with the slightly beaten egg and add this liquid to the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly and add the melted fat. Bake in well greased muffin pans about 30 minutes in a hot oven (425 degrees F.) B r a n Muffins Two cups bread flour or two and one-half cups pastry flour, two cups bran, five tsp. baking powder two tsp. salt, MX tbsp. sugar, two cups sweet milk, one egg. one tbsp. shortening. If sour milk is used instead of swec-t milk, use one tsp. of soda and ere t s p . of baking powder. Sift the sevda with the other dry ingredients. All measurements are level. Sift the flour once before measuring. Mix and sift together the flour, baking ''•'•-- salt and sugar. Stir in the :ix the milk with the slightly beaten rgg and add this liquid to the dry ingredients.

The Fox in the Well One day a Fox passing by a farm- 'er's well happened to be thirsty and stopped to get a drink. When he stooped over he fell in the well, alone • came a Wolf, hearing the Fox, stopped to see what was the matter. He sa\« his cousin Raynard in t h e well. The Fox told the Wolf that he saw somet h i n g glitter in the well, so jumped in to get it and he had his pocket; filled with gold. The wolf too eager i « r a ahare wanted to help him out, - S c t h e Fox told him to ~et in t h - bucket at the brink. The wolf being heavier went down and the Fox came « p . The Fox jumped out and said thank you Mr. Wolf I'll leave the treasure ail to you, as he disappeared across the lot. Yours very truly, F a y Clark.

The way to carry cake is to wrap it up ir leaves and put it in your hat and gf home." So the next day, he asked his Mamie if he could go to his Granies piace. His mother said yes, so he went. When he came there his Granie gave him a pound of butter, th<ri he thoucht o* what his Mamie told him to do with the cake, so thought that he would do that with the butter.

Sightseeing Busies May Cover Michigan Pikes Muskegon—The so-callH "rubber neck" wa^on of the b:g otk*h m a y d e _ cide to go far afield. In ihi-se day a of good roads there docs not seem to be any reason why olleetivc- sightseeing should be confined u> the cities. An indication of the further possibilities is glimpsed in the inquiry recently made along Michigan's west *hore by a representative of the Chicago, Milwaukee & North Shore Railroad. This representative recently visited the Greater Muskegon Chamber of Commerce and discussed some details of the proposal. A series of weekly tours through the chief cities of the state is proposed. The route laid out would be H13 miles long, 624 of which is well paved and all of which is graveled. The company will send a car over the route in March To determine whether ouch tours would be feasible. The Chicago, Milwaukee and North Shore railroad puts on weekly tours to the principal cities of Illinois and Wisconsin, s t a r t i n g from Chicago each Monday morning. It is the purpose of the road to put on the Michigan tour if road conditions are favorable, both for its scenic and educational value. The route laid out includes visits to the automobile, pure fcod, educational and furniture centers of the country. The route would take the parties to Benton Harbor and St. Joseph over M - l l and there include a visit to the House of David. From there they would go to Kala mazoo; Battle Creek, Jackson, Ann Arbor and Detroit along M-17; Pontiac, Flint, Saginaw and Bay City over M-10; to Owosso and Lansing over M-14 and M-47; to Grand Rapids over M-16; to Muskegon over M-46; and returning to Chicago over M - l l , visiting Grand Haven, Holland and other cities on the t r i p down. The company's tours are made in large Flageol bussts with a chauffeur and touring conductor on each car. The tour laid out provides for the d e p a r t u r e from Chicago Monday morning and return the following S a t u r d a y night- Chambers of Commerce throughout the state will be asked to co-operate with the local chamber m this matter. o U. S. Weather Map Explained Northern Michigan HunU Scrub Bulls Beware of Mexican Oil Scheme* Michigan Bank Deposits Gain $104,600 000 Washington—Almost everyone is familiar with the large weather maps located in public places, such as railway stations, postoffices or government buildings. The weather bureau of the United States department of agriculture issues a printed explanation of the weather map, telling in detail what the various marks and lines mean, and how the map ie read. Tbe daily weather reports consist of observations of tin- barometer and thermometer, the velocity and direction of the wind, .-tatr <>:" the- weather, and amount of rain or snow. On the weather maps solid lines, called isobars, are drawn through points t h a t have the same atmosphoreic pressure. Dotted lines, called isotherms, are drawn through points that have t h e same temperature. The direction of the wind at each station is indicated by an arrow which flies with the wind. Shaded areas are sometimes used to show areas of rainfall or snowfall. Tabulated data give other details. The center? of areas of low barometric pressure a r e indicated on the m a p by the word "low" and the centers of the areas of high barometric pressure by the word ''high." In the northern hemisphere winds blow spirally inward, counterclockwise, toward and around the. center of a low, while from the center of a high they blow spirally outward as the hands of a clock move. These facts influence the direction from which prevailing winds a t any point are blowing. There are r a t h e r well-defined storm tracks which may be traced on a weather map, and very definite indications of the character of approaching weather changes which may be found on the weather charts. Topography and the location of land and water areas with regard to the place where the observer happens to be are, of course, important factors in weather changes. o — State Building Many Roads Marquette— Scrub bulls in tne upper peninsula of Michigan are in bad repute and none from other sections are wanted in that region. 11 of the 15 counties m the upper peninsula of Michigan have organized purebredsire campaigns, and as soon as a sur vey is taken to locate the unprofitable, poorly bred bulls, active economicwarfare will be waged against them. In fact, scrub-bull meat will be the piece de resistance at a big Cloverland barbecue to be held in December, 1924. Committees of leading farmers are in charge of the campaigns which anbeing conducted along original line-. The U. P. Development Bureau has issued purebred-sire blotters containing statements which show that scrubs are a short cut to a mortgage. The blotters are significant in suggesting the mopping up of the scrub element.

Cuddy, A director of Adver-; tising of the Standard Oil Company ; has a keen sense of humor. The following story is credited to him: A merchant keeps hens about a mile away from his home, and daily Ins wife fetches home about fifty For three consecutive days now she I has found all the nests empty. The : henhouse door was intact, so was the ; lock, therefore how had the thieves1 got into the shed? She could not tell, and Mr. and Mr. ! Henfruit sat up the three nights dis- | cussing the thefts and how to catch the thief. But they were baffled. On the following morning, when | returning fruitlessly from the shed, she met all the hens, on the road, j nearly half way between the shed and I the house. Whatever they were doing there she could not tell. When she next went to tend the fire I she was surprised and delighted to find a solution to the mystery. There in the coal place were all her egg". "Now, how thoughtful of those hento save me the trouble of fetching th• • ergs," she thought. She fully understood the matter, when her husband got home that night and told her of having seen all their hens in a row on the fence, locking at a new poster that read "Now is the t inn to lay in coal." o Corn Kings of Michigan Lansing Bankers. Chambers of Commerce and other community and civic organizations have been asked i by the Michigan Securities Commission to warn the public with respect to the oil schemes that are now com- i ing out of Mexico. The Commission i says: "Activities of Federal author! ties' and state securities officials of California within the last few months have driven fake oil promoters out of the southwest and Pacificslope sections resulting in the conviction of Dr. (look of pseudo North Pole fame, S. E. J. Cox and others. Finding the atmosphere there too feggy for their .schemes, many of the lesser lights of this gang have migrated to Mexico. Since J a n . 1, they have been bombarding people in this country with oil promotion circulars in an attempt to collect more hard earned American dollars. The U. S. government has, in conjunction with the Mexican government, held up a lot of this mail at the Mexican border, but some has slipped through. Some of it has been received by Michigan people who are in the socalled 'sucker list.' "The public should pay no attention to any oil schemes sent from Mexico by mail. The i-V^nce^ nre they all emanate from this gang of crooks. Mexican oil schemes, even properly worked, are at best a wild gamble, owing to political and governmental conditions in that republic at the present time. Keep away from any schemes which come out of Mexico. So far most of the spurious plans have originated in the City of Mexico. Vera Cruz and Chihuahua. If anybody gets any of this literature or is solicited by mail to pur- ! chase stock in a Mexican oil or min- j ing scheme, don't buy. Either send it to the Securities Commission or take it to your banker and have him | send it to the Securities Commission for investigation." n .

For 192'-!, deposits in Michigan state banks increased over $104,600,1)00, while total loans in state banks increased approximately $90,000,000. Rediscounts and bills payable decreased approximately $4,000,000. Of the total deposit increase, approximately $79,800,000 was in savings with but approximately ?" 1.800,000 in commercial. The year 19113 as evidenced by this comparison was one of substantial progress with little inflation. The gradual accumulation of savings funds in this satisfactory aggregate is reassuring and indicates the substantial prosperity which Michigan. has oil joyed, particularly outside of the rural district, for 1923. The prosperity of 1921 is made more sure by the splendid 192o record. • - • • — - — o Washington Farmers Will Release Wheat Aspirin Beware of Imitations!

" This statement, made by Abraham Lincoln after the Civil war, contains more t r u t h and wisdom than many a lenjrthy volume. It was in many ways a m o d e m version of the old saying, "Actions speak louder than w o r d s . " We arc- forced to listen to a gTeat many colorful description* of merchandise and organizations selling it and in this case—"The world will soon F O R G E T " — i s just as applicable as it was in the hectic days of Lincoln. And so also is it t r u e that it is easy to REMEMBER good ACTION and P E R F O R M A N C E . We know t h a t when we T E L L you of the many good qualities of the W E S T I N G H O U S E ELECTRIC LIGHT AND POWER P L A N T you will soon F O R G E T . But when you S E E these qualities exhibited in the daily performance of the superb W E S T I N G H O U S E P L A N T you will indeed REMEMBER. You cannot very well deny the evidence of your eyes, and remember that " T h e r e are none so blind as those who W I L L not s e e . " Our part in this case is to be the introductory agent. We realize t h a t when Emerson said the world would b e a t a path to the home of the man who made the B E S T mousetrap, no m a t t e r where it might be, he spoke the truth. But it is also a fact t h e y would find his home more readily if there were a few signs along t h e road. We are the signs t h a t point the way t o the B E S T E L E C T R I C L I G H T AND POWER P L A N T — a n d in our way we also serve.
