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.

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.

G. KAISER Agricultural Engineer A BROOM is one of the necessary pieces of equipment around the houie. It i& usually detested because it is such a back-breaking job to uxc it. 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. Bank-run gravel, or gravel as it comes from the bank should not be used unless it is run over a J4 inch mesh screen and the sand and pebbles mixed with cement in a i: a 4 proportion as explained before. The sand to be used should be dean and range from the smallest particles to those which will just pass through a 14 tnch screen. The pebbles or crushed ruck should be dean and should range Th« drawing show* • cinder or grmvel bo* under the walk. 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.

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. Property rights, personal privileges or right of franchise m i g h t be involved s a d all kinds s f serious c o m p u t a t i o n * m i g h t de- In the past five years 101,646 peti- j tioners for naturalization .were denied citizenship for various reasons. 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.

The formations indicate a similar structure to that existing at some of the producing mines on the Menominee range, which comprises Iron Mountain, Norway, Iron River. Crystal Falls, Vulcan, Lorette. o Ke-Kom Kah, or "good fishing" is the name Lake City has chosen for the state park and free tourist camp at that place. The name is said to be from the Chippewa language. It is expected that the park tract will be enlarged by additions of state and government lands. The park is reported o have a good growth of hardwood rees. o A report shows that 19,802 automobiles were ferried across the straits of Mackinac by two railroads and by the state highway department on its ferry last season. The highway department ferry carried 10,379 cars and the Wawatam 9,432. Aside from those making the trip in cars, several thousands other passengers were taken across. It is estimated conservatively that 100,- 000 people visited the upper peninsula last year. o Gasoline production in the United States attained a new high record in 1923, w h e n 7,555,945,143 gallons were produced, states the Bureau of Mines, The figures represent an increase of 21.83 per cent over the 1922 gasoline output. While a record- breaking production of gasoline was being registered, the demand for the product attained an even greater percentage of increase. F o r the year 1923 the indicated domestic demand amounted to 6,685,035,280 gallons Exports were 8 7 1 , 1 1 6 , 6 1 4 gallons, which, added to domestic demand, shows a total demand for the year amounting to 7,556,151,894 gallons, an increase of 26.64 per cent over the total demand in 1922.

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.

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. Did you know that: The state of Michigan is operating 14 free e m p l o y m e n t agencies in various sections as against 68 operated by private concerns. During 1 9 2 3 about 1,400 w o m e n found work in Michigan through the free employment agencies. The state highway film showing road construction work has been shown j j | 26 different cities. Miss Gail Curtis, for years an employe of the state library, has been appointed assistant librarian. There were 367 railroad fatalities in Michigan in 1923, an increase of 134 over 1922. Injured persons totaled 2,017 as against 1,258 in 1922. In 1925 there were 524 grade crossing collisions between autos and trains in Michigan in which 164 autoists were killed and 420 injured. Twenty-nine men, women and children in Michigan were killed last year while either attempting to walk over crossings ahead of trains or while trespassing. Fifty-one persons were killed in railway collisions, derailments and getting on and off cars. In Michigan there is about one and one-quarter miles of road for every square mile of territory and that the highway mileage is approximately eight times greater than the steam and electric line mileage combined. Michigans wealth increased 16,7 per cent in the ten year period from Dec. 31, 1912, to Dec. 21, 1922, according to official announcement just made. In 1912 our wealth was $5,- 233,700,000 and in 1922 it was $ 1 1 , - 340,150,000. The per capital wealth increased for that period from $1,- 806 to $ 2 , 8 8 3 , or 59.2 per cent. The soldiers' bonus fund in Michigan has a balance of about $400,- 000 today. More than half a million pounds of war salvage explosive has been shipped into Michigan during the last year to be used by farmers. Twenty lower Michigan counties took 329,000 pounds.

(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.

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.

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.

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.

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 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. If I win send me a boy's gift. Yours truly, Linwood Webb. Oakley, Mich. Dear Uncle Ernest—I have never Oakley, Mich. Dear Sir—I will write you some riddles.

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.

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.

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. No washing today for the conheard ringing on the road leading script's wife. Monday had been to Logtown. Men were out in force with the Perkins family the heredi- Jaca said clearing a road. jtary tub day. Rain or shine the "There won't be any trouble get- week's wash must go out on the line ting through tomorrow," he assured and Rachel had followed pretty closeh «T, when she told of her previously her mother's rule in this respect night's visitors and of her promise I Today would prove an exception to to Marshal Woodrow.

He understood the Indira character well enough to know that one of that race seldom gave over his plotting mischief because of the remonstrance even of his friends, "Why, no, of course he wouldn't," Rachel's indignant negative. "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.

The boy did not have the sublime faith in the honor of Thornton Clang that had his sister.

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.

Uncle Ernest feels proud of the members of the Scribe club and the manuscript they are sending in wfeek after week. They have heeded the :all, to be original, and we note they are sending in original matter, composed by themselves. Riddles seem to lead from our boys and girls and somo very good ones have been sent in, and yet there is opportunity for many more. Nature riddles are interesting and are not difficult to make because of the poetical names of flowers and trees. Some nature riddles: What is the saddest tree? Answer —The weeping willow. What flower is a bird in a shabby dress? Answer—The ragged robin. My first is an animal, my second is a tree, and my whole a sign of spring. Who a m i ? Answer—PUssy willow. My first is made of precious metal, my second spoils a child when it is spared, and my whole is an autumn flower. Who am I? Answer—Golden rod. What riddles can you make on: Snow-ball, butter-cup, jack-in-thepulpit, tiger lily, four-o'clock, milkweed, cowslip, bachelor's button, bleeding hearts, and sweet William? Another riddle that is good fun is the descriptive riddle. Describe something that is in your house or yard, or something that you wear or use, and let your playmates guess what it is. Here arc two descriptive riddles: I am in this house. I change frequently in size, I am dressed often and always in new dresses. Indeed, [ never wear the same gown more than throe or four times. I always itand up but I am never tired. You :ould stick a pin in me but I wouldn't cry out. Who am I? Answer— Mother's dress-form. Wo hope the boys and girls will continue sending in their stories, riddles, etc., and Uncle Ernest invites them and it has been decided to give a weekly prize for the best letter, then from time to time we will make special prizes for special features. Send letters to Uncle Ernest, 58 Market avenue, S. W., Grand Rapids, Mich.

A pleasing balance is kept in every Hne of the front, grouping offsetting the tendency toward severity with harmonious effect This Is noted particularly with regard to the clever handling of the steep pitched reef which is modified somewhat by the lone dormer and the broadened chimney. The arched openinga of the porch and the front entrance aa weU as the shutters lend appropriate touches te the design. The protected entrance does away with the necessity for a vestibule and the front door opens directly into a hall where we view a broad stair and get a gtimpce into the large livingroom.

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.

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.

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.

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. Thesa exhibits drew the largest, moet interested ringside the breed has ever had. Today more farmers are seeking foundation animals in the breed than ever before. The Ayrshire has made good w: th the American dairyman. He will take can; of her future in this country. plication of the results. " 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.

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.

"I'm sorry," he said sadly, went back to his blocks. On Sunday the question was repeated, and the nurse with a sob in her voice said: "Yes, Lambie, this is God's day."

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. (immmmmji'Lmmjn^^ THE HOME B E A U T I F U L —THE MORGAN PARK— An Inexpensive House of the Western Type Marshall, Mich. 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 .

" Y e s , " m u r m u r e d Rnchi 1. "1 don't care much t h o u g h . " She sighed, a tear rolling down h e r thin white cheek. This affected J a c k , who (:uickly km It and sniM'.gled h e r face against his breast. "Now cry, little girl," he clucked; "cry till you fitn't shed a n o t h e r t e a r ; I know you have been w a n t i n g t o do t h a t very t h i n g for a long time.

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. Two years, since tiwn C /org * and Louis Hutzler, who ,T rat • a farm togvth-r, have won in ;h" international with the island '.WW1:.

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."

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Fanciful as it may sound, here is the recent occurrence as reported to the United States Department of Agriculture by Dr. W. T. Conway, a Federal veterinary inspector stationed in Pittsburgh. A farmer near Wilkensburg, Pa,, had been a regular listener-in on the series of talks being broadcasted from Pittsburgh on the activities of the Bureau of Animal Industry. One of the talks was on the subject of tuberculosis eradication. His interest thus aroused turned to one of his own cows which had been noticeably unthrifty and affected with a bad cough. He went to the local office of the Bureau of Animal Industry for advice. The inspector in charge informed the State representative of the case. The State man then made three futile attempts to reach the farm by following the directions which the farmer left. Failing to reach the inquirer in this manner, the farmer w a s "paged" by radio from station K D K A . It w a s announced t h a t efforts had been made to reach hira and if he were listening in to get in touch again with the office. Two days later the farmer came to the office. Arrangements were then made to conduct the State representative to the farm for an examination of the suspected animal. The symptons were suspicious and arrangements were planned for an official test. o Longer Hike Around Michigan Shoreline Than to Hudson Bay If you were standing on the shore of Lake Erie at the point which marks the boundary line between Michigan and Ohio, y o n would be considerably nearer KnoxvilU, Tennessee, than the northernmost point in Michigan—the tip of Keween a w Point.

Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y. Several millions of brook trout fry have been successfully planted this spring by the Department of Conserj vation through the use of motor driven apparatus. Eleven trucks are operating at that many hatcheries. Tans containing a few thousand trout fry are loaded onto the trucks and trained hatchery men then take the | fry to the respective districts into which they are ordered. Arriving on j the scene they are met by game wardens familiar with every stream and j with every inch of the country. The ' trained hatchery men know just Wet leather is damaged much more ' w h e r e to P I a n t t h e fr^ a n d exercise readily by heat than dry leather, says t h e Bureau of Chemistry, United S t a t e s Department of Agriculture. B u t it is hard to g e t the average user of leather to keep this in mind, and as a consequence much leather is damaged by being subjected to high temperatures when damp. Leather which has been burned by being too close to a stove or steam pipes loses its s t r e n g t h and, in fact, will retain hardly any of the characteristics of leather. I t becomes hard, is easily broken, and often will drop in pieces. That using such damaged leather m a y endanger life at times w a s shown recentJy by a specimen sent to the Bureau of Chemistry. This specimen w a s a lineman's leather s a f e t y strap which, though nearly new, w a s broken almost in t w o as a result of burning. Such ajtraps are used by telephone and telegraph linemen as supports while working; in midair. Originally this particular strap had been strong e n o u g h to hold a t e a m of horses, but its strength bad been reduced t o less than that of a piece of ordinary string. It is probable that t h e strap was damaged when the wearer unwittingly leaned against a hot steam pipe. This example shows rather emphatically how important it is to t a k e good care of leather. Even in cases where no danger may result, it pays t o give leather good t r e a t m e n t A great many pairs of shoes are ruined w h e n the wearers put the wet soles against hot stoves or radiators or on the heater which feels so comfortable under the street car seat on rainy or slushy days. Frequently the burned spots will fall out and the shoe manufacturer gets the blame. Leather service m a y be increased by remembering the simple f a c t that w e t leather is more easily damaged by heat than dry leather. the necessary caution in placing them in the water. B y this method the mortality rate among trout fry is kept to the minimum. Close check is kept of the streams- and locations in which the fry are planted and this information is of inestimable value to the state. The scheme now operating in the planting of trout fry will be followed in the planting of every other species of fish and the same data on all will be kept. Besides insuring a lower mortality rate among planted fry, the new method also is much cheaper than the former method. However, the railroad fish car of the department will not be discontinued for the time being.

She found him asltep in his chair, nor did he stir at her approach. The dim light touched his features giving them a grotesque appearance. The thin temples where puffed the full dark veins were shaded by wisps of graying hair. The cheeks fell away in angular outline across the point of the jaw; the whole frame was sadly shrunken and diseased. The wife everything. It was indeed a lonely house to which the mother returned. The next few days were burdened Little Thornton is | with bitter memories, and she felt as though she had nothing now to live for. When, however, the dark and hopelessly shadowed face of her husband came to her vision, she became less depressed. He had assured her of his blood guiltlessness, therefore her heart held renewed hope. She believed and trusted him still. Thornton Clang was still her "'Hush, sir, pk-a.-t- hush!" moaned Rachel, hiding her face in an agony of disLrt-ss. dead!"

She knew him by reputation rather than by personal contact. He had in a measue been her husband's evil genius, stiffening him in his resistance to the order of things, praising his stand in defiance of the National Government. The old dissenter glowed and smiled on the wife of the conscript- He saw in her a martyr to a glorious principle, and her sufferings' rioted like old wine in his veins.

This oppressive silence must soon break. This came with a startling distinctness at last—rattle of wheels and champ of horses! Rachel took instant fright. She sped to the front of the house even as a step sounded outside. Before she could slip the bolt the door swung open revealing the dark, sympathetic features of Marshal Tom Woodrow. He came in without apol- °§ry> grasping both her hands in a firm, friendly clasp. "My dear girl!" exclaimed he in the heat of sudden emotion, "I am so sorry. I did not hear until tonight How you have suffered. I have wanted to comfort you but have not known how. After this you mast leave everything to Vne. I w:.ll see to all the arrangements—" Rachel gasped. She jerked her hands free) and thrust him wildly backward, her face the color of chalk. "Go, in heaven's name, go!" she half screamed. "Don't stop here a single minute; I do not want you; you must not stay. Oh, sir, if you are a friend of mine you will leave me alone now!" j Her look, her tone puzzled and j alarmed him.

When she proffered her services to dress his wounds he merely smiled, assuring her that he was not permitting himself to be babied. Being of strenuous make the marshal despised effeminate men. His calling demanded nerve and endurance which he prided himself upon possessing in a remarkable degree. Many an incautious criminal had felt to his sorrow the good right arm of Marshal Woodrow, and had the conscript not taken him wholly unawares there would have been a different termination to the late struggle. "If I can be of any service, Rachel," said Woodrow a moment later, "command me." "I don't know, hesitatingly, her brain confused with passing events. "Jack is about somewhere; you might find and consult with him if you will." The marshal signified his willingness to do so, after which he retired. than sacrilege. j the boys wrist as he was ready for Jack maintained silence where the a second stroke. fugitive w'as concerned. She was glad for this. The boy's embittered words in the past still lingered and she knew how much of self repression it cost him to stay his speech. The days wore on. Jack remained with/ his sister, doing the necessary chores about the house, going- to Logtown each day to note how matters were working fthere. This sort of existence could not last, however. No one knew this better than Rachel. She saw the restlessness of the boy and felt that it was up to her to suggest a remedy. One afternoon Jack returned from town, driving a span of ponies attached to a runabout. "The Seventh move* out tomorrow," cried the boy, "and you are going over to Wingdam with me to see the parade as tne boys go to the depot." "But, Jack—" "Not a word, sister mine," protested the boy. "You'll eat your heart out here all alone. No use talking, you've got to get out And Mrs. Meadows slept through it! amongst folks. I fetched the ponies all. Rachel refused to disturb the [to keep till we go. We'll get an good woman again that night. She went back to her lonely vigil beside early start so as to be on hand in "Stop, Jack, stop!" screamed Mrs Clang. "Don't you see?—Mr. Adama is hurt!" Jack glanced backward to see the old man gathering himself, trying strenuously to regain his feet. "Let' the blamed scamp go,' sapped Jack, whose face was flushed with angry annoyance. Several persons now rushed to the assistance of the fallen man. The boy was roiled, yet he knew his duty, and halted the ponies. "Hold the reins a moment, Sis." Jack leaped out and ran back. He found Adams somewhat dazed by his fall, yet not seriously injured. The old fellow was wrathful, however, and poured out his anger in a volume of anathemas against the author of his downfall. "He's jes' like all tv e nigger-stealers; they have no consideration for gray hairs, no respect for age. They've robbed every home in ther nation to make targets fur Southern rifles. I hope to land there'll never be a d—n one of 'em come back; let 'em rot in Southern ground, it's what they deserve!" Jack was assured from the angry scolding of Adams that he was not The peak of storm activity for the week will fall on Sunday, Wednesday and Saturday with the last two dates being the most prominent. I The most sunshiny weather of the I week will occur during Monday and J Tuesday and again probably about I Thursday or Friday. j The tail end of a storm period will be leaving Michigan at the beginning of this week. This condition will bring unsettled and showery weather to most parts of the state on the 22nd. Following this date, however, it is expected the weather will clear up and up to about the middle of the week the sky will be generally clear. j The very early part of the week will be cool although we do not be- : lieve it will be unseasonably so. Be- ' ginning about Monday and not later j than Tuesday temperatures throughout the state will show a marked risi ing tendency and before the week is finished will have sent the mercury I playing around the eighty degree 1 mark. [ Storm conditions during the latter half of the week of June 22nd are ex- I pected to be more or less severe in this and other states of the central group. The usual electrical storms are to be expected in various parts of the state. Added to this in some sections will- be hail storms and local tornadoes. The general characteristics will be heavy local rains and showers and some very high winds. Another cool spell will begin following the eastward passage of the storm mentioned for the last of this week. As a result of the cool air following this storm alone, temperatures are expected to fall to a minimum of between 55 and 60 degrees. Before next week is completed, temperatures may fall a few degrees below this mark. CHAPTER XXIII On to Wingdam The conscript darted upon the marshal with the frenzied fury of a madman. His bony knuckleB cut the flesh of the intruder with the weight and keenness of forged steel. Woodrow, thus unexpectedly astauHed, went down and out. It was all over in a minute and Rachel stood wringing her hands in an agony of horror over the bleeding form of Marshal Tom. The officer was not seriously injured. He quickly regained his feet | h e ) . d e a d , h o l d i n g s a d good season. You won't say no, Ra- : dangerously injured, therefore he chie, will you?"

The smile that Rachel finding only a weak woman to con front. His assailant had dashed away, taking refuge once more in the tangled thickets of the dark woods. Woodrow wiped the blood from his face with his handkerchief, at the same time regarding Mrs. Clang with anything but friendly eyes. Something hard and sirfister glittered in his black orbs as he said sternly: "So he has been with you, Rachel Clang!" The words conveyed all the vengef «l feeling of the speaker. There was also a rebuke that told his listener that he regarded her as very much a fraud.

The neighbors came at daydawn, also Jack, calm as a summer morning. He made no mention of Clang, never hinting that he knew of his return. He knew it of course, since Woodrow made no attempt to keep it secret, and Rachel wondered at this silence on the part of her brother. The funeral was held at the cottage. Such rites were usually held in the little school house on the hill overlooking Hemlock Run, but Rachel would not expose her biting sorrow to the curious.

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

Farm Labor Shortage A shortage of farm labor is reported by the United States Department of Agriculture. The supply on April 1 is estimated by the department at 92 per cent of the demand. There was an even g reater deficiency April 1 a year ago when the j supply was but 88 per cent of the de- Irruind, The greatest deficiency is in the South Atlantic states where the supply is 84 per cent of the demand, followed by the North Atlantic 1 states with 89 per cent, the East North Central states with 89 per cent, and the South Central states with 92 per cent. There is an oversupply in the West North Central states where the supply is 102 per cent of the demand, and in the Western states, including the Mountain and Pacific divisions where it is 110 per cent. o Miss Abby Rockefeller, daughter of John D.

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

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

Beauty and comfort can be obtained temporarily with many materials but permanence is not so easily secured. This pleasing variation of the Dutch Colonial type of home—the Hazelhurst—has been designed in concrete block and Portland cement stucco with fire resisting shingles in order to obtain the maximum permanence and minimum maintenance while not sacrificing beauty and comfort that are so much desired. To the family desiring a few large rooms rather than many small rooms this home will particularly appeal. The lower floor has but three rooms and a hallway extending from front entrance to rear entrance. The stairway to the upper floor is located in this hallway. To the left from the front entrance is the extra large living room, 12 by 21 feet. This room extends from the front of the home to the rear porch where a double door is provided. There is one window on the front and two on the side. A fireplace adds much to the beauty of the interior and on cool evenings is just the thing to remove t h » chill from the atmosriBsr n o w ^inn phere. Logs may be burned or a gas arrangement Installed. To the right from the front entrance is the dining room which h a s two large windows, one on t h e front and one on the side. A door leads to the kitchen which also has two windows. A closet located in the hallway completes the first floor a r r a n g e - ment. The second floor has two large bedrooms, bathroom, and three closets, all of extra size. One bedroom has two windows and the other h a s four, all of which insure proper ventilation while in use.

VAN WINKLE 1¾ i M A a a t ^ M & (r- \ ": Years Will Bring Renewed Demand for Land and Farm Products ^ Concrete Block Garages Convenient, Economical, Fire«afe ri1 One cause of the slump in farm commodity prices which occurred in the nineties was the fact that the land area under cultivation io the United States had then recently undergone a tremendous expansion, due to the settlement of the Middle Wijst and Western States. No increase in the per capita area of land UJrtier cultivation can be cited in p*rt explanation of the present slump in farm product prices, say economists in the United States Department of Agriculture. On the contrary', they point out, the last twenty years have seen a shorp decline in the per capita area of tilled land. Good land available for farming has been getting relatively scarcer in the United States for several decades. Though the census of 1920' showed nearly a three fold absolute gain since 1850 in the area of land in farms, the per capita acreage in farms had decreased. From 1880 to 1900 the per capita area in fourteen principal crops increased slightly, but it was less in each succeeding decade. The combined production per capita of nine principal crops was less in 1920 than in 1900. The per capita acreage of improved land in farms, which was at its maximum in the decade 1880 to 1890, has since declined. Conditions outside the United States have contributed to the present agricultural depression. Diminished buying power in continental Europe has temporarily hidden the fact that the trend in this country is toward an increased pressure of population on land resources. But the trend is there just the same, and it is expected to become apparent again within a very few years. With many important farm products still a drug on the market, it seems absurd to talk of an increasing scarcity of land. Yet there is no denying the fact, say economists in the Department of Agriculture, that we shall soon need to reckon with the problems which grow out of the in - crvaaing scarcity of available land in relation to population. This does not mean that we have not sufficient land resources to maintain a much larger population, but rather, that as population increases there will be a steadily increasing pressure on land resource^ compelling important readjustments in foreign trade, in standards ui consumption, and in methods oi production of farm and forest products. Although the present area, in farms is only about one half the total land area, of the country, nearly all the land suitable for agricultural purposes is now in use either for crops or pasture or is forest and cut-over land. Besides the reduced ability of Europe to buy our farm products, there are some other causes of the apparent interruption in the trend toward an increased pressure of population on land resources. Among these is the fact that in recent years there has been a gradual reduction in the per capita acreage of crop land employed in livestock raising, and an overexpansion in the per capita acreage of wheat and rye at the expense of other crops. As these branches of American agriculture resume their norma! proportions, the real scarcity of land will be thrown into prominence again. One of the most important conditions which tends to obscure the increasing scarcity of our natural resources is the continued cutting of forest products from the stored up supply of past years, temporarily throwing land out of use which ought to be now growing timber to provide against the great scarcity of timber that will be manifest a generation from the present. These considerations are not cited fLOQR, PLAN invested in automobile The amount of money even the lowest priced justifies a substantial garage that will give the required protection against weather, theft and fire. With a parage on the home grounds the owner has his car always within reach and where he can use his spare by economists in the Department of u n u , i n keeping it clean and in good Agriculture to give the impression : r u n n i , ^ (,rder. He also has a place that a revival of American agricul- J t o !.;tH,p o i ! i s r a r e t i r e s a n d o t n e r c a r ture based on a demand for increased , supplies. With production is just around the corner. It is recognized that the foreign outlook may mean that some years will be required to restore the normal balance between acreage under cultivation and the demand, both foreign and domestic, for our farm products. Yet is is noted that the bearish outlook is offset to some extent by the fact that the population of the world is increasing at a rate of about 20,- 000.000 a year and the population of the United* States at about 1,500,000 a year. There is consequently nothing over-optimistic in predicting an increased demand for American farm land and consequently for American farm products within a few years. tne car near the house there will be less danger from fire, tampering and pilfering as it will always be under the owner's eye. Where ever possible the material used in the walls and roof of the garage should be the same as that of the house. Concrete block are suitable and practicable for all classes of garages from the small one-car building rLOOR-.Pl.AK several cars, such as are built for the accommodation of car owners living in appartment houses. The block may be finished in stucco to harmonize with the house by the addition in the cement mix of color to produce the desired tint. An essential feature of garage design which is incorporated in these plans is the wide caves or overhang, which serve as a protection to the owner from rain or dripping water when locking the doors during wet weather. A door at the side will be found convenient for use when the car is not to be taken out. Garages are often heated from the house plant although there are many small inexpensive garage heaters which give perfect satisfaction. A flue for separate heating is shown in one of the floor plans and may be to the types with separate rooms for ' easily included in the others. FLOOtt. PLAN Special care should be given to the selection of the hardware for supporting and operating the large movable doors. Doors that stick and bind are a nuisance and an extra $10 spent on good hardware will more than repay the owner in comfort and convenience. A garage should be built to allow for plenty of working space about the car and even though the owner's car be of the smaller type, it is good ecenomy to build a garage to accommodate a large car, thus anticipating future needs. Built of concrete block, finished in stucco, a garage is practically permanent. Expense from repairs, painting and insurance are reduced to a minimum and the car owner is assured that his car has maximum protection. OUR POU I Western Michigan Is Vast Orchard; Yields Rich Fortune Yearly =^ PARTMENT Increase Egg Production by Efficient Hen House* "The raising of poultry is one important factor in the solution of the farm meat problem not only to furnish a change from pork and beef in the winter time but to take the place of the smoked or cured meats which are ordinarily used during the warm weather. Eggs also form an important part of the diet. Every p o u l t r y raiser should endeavor to maintain ogg p r o d u c t i o n throughout the year. Under natural conditions hens 1 a y most in the spring as they can get out in the open air and sunlight. Keeping hens in the dark, cold poultry houses practically stops egg production from November to February. However, through the use of a concrete poultry house, W. H. Gardner, is worti eats them product dozen. To beirin with, th.' big fivegallnn earthenware pickle par.> are the best utensils to u; .• f• »r this purpose. They w.ll hold from 12 to 11 dozen each. First they are washed thoroughly and then sterilized with boiling hot water. This is highly important. With the receptacle ready the waterglass solution is next prepared and this is simple. Just mix one part of the waterglass with nine parts of previously boiled and cooled water. Put the eggs in the jars, small end down and pour the solution over them. When filled the solution should cover the top layer of eggs to a depth of at least one inch. Cover the jar, put it away in a cool, dry place and leave it until the eggs are wanted.

She produces in abundance and in splendid quality all the hardy fruits known to northern states and in addition enjoys a substantial annual income from crops commonly found in states to the south. The apple crop of 11320 totalled 16,- 500,000 bushels and sold for $12,705,- 000. B'rrien, Oakland, Alkgan, Van Iluier:, Oceana, Kent and Grand Traver.- vc counties profited principally fn-ni tins crop. Buyers from all very noticeable increase in land values. Tempering Influence of Grea' Lake* Aid Lake Superior on the north and Lake Michigan on the west have a distinctly modifying influence on the climate of the state, tempering the cold winds from the north and west. The effect is the same as that of the Pacific winds on the western portions of Washington and Oregon, only to a lesser degree. Thus nature has de- !earii!i\r markets come to during apple season. The west shore of Michigan is one great peach orchard extending from tht.' Indian^ border to Grand Traverse Hay. In 1','20 the harvest reached 1,.011().0011 bushels and was sold for :y),4"e! niju. i "nerrii's, grapes pears, strawberri". at.d ra.-nberries, are produced in Michigan in very important quantities, the state leading in the acreage for small fruits. Practically every county of western Michigan produces fruit with success and them the returns from those from agriculture. Michigan creed that Michigan not only can grow the hardy fruits common to most of the northern states, but is able to produce the more tender fruits that are denied to her neighbors less fortunately situated, During the cold periods in winter the daily minimum temperature at Grand Haven and Ludington average from 15 to 20 degrees warmer than at Milwaukee and Green Bay, only about 50 miles distan^but situated on the opposite side of Lake Michigan. in the spring, the water warms less in most of rapidly than the land, so that the fruit exceed | winds are relatively cool and delay the opening of the fruit buds until, in Spring Lambs Thrive on Forage Crops To avoid stomach worms and promote rapid growth in spring lambs with a minimum of labor and feeding cost, the use of forage crops is recommended by, experts of the United States Department of Agriculture. By this plan the ewes and lambs are put to graze on wheat or rye sown the preceding fall. Fresh grazing should be provided every two weks. This maybe done by subdividing the temporary pastures. While this crop is being grazed, a crop of soy beans or rape may be growing on other land for feed after the winter crop is gone. The land that bore the winter crop may then be replanted to any other crop that is seasonable. On request, the Bureau of Animal Industry, United States Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C, will supply further information on this and other phages of sheep raising. Getting a Big Yield of Beans The saying, "Too poor to grow beans," does not imply that beans will do well without an adequate bupply of plant food, in the form of manure, legume crops turned under, and fertilizers. The average acre yield of beans in Michigan this past year was 11.5 bushels. According to The Michigan Farmer, Mr. W. K. Denniaon, a Saginaw county farmer, harvested 108 bushels from a little over five acres, or 38 1-3 bushels per acre. Fred McClearly of Midland county produced 222 bushels on seven acres, or practically 33¾ bushels per acre. The most profitable crops of beans are secured when the soil is handled in the same way as for a profitable wheat, corn or oats crop. This means careful attention to plant food requirements, seed -election, and culture. The biggest yield.-* and best quality are obtained when the crop gets a quick start and has sufficient plant food for a steady growth and early ripening. A few days lost in starting or ripening the crop often means the difference between a profitable crop and an almost complete failure. A good bean fertilizer can be chosen from the following analyses: 3-12-4, 2-12-2, 2-16-2, and 0-16-0. On sands, sandy loams and light colored soils the 3-12-4 and 2-12-2 are the best analyses. On heavier soils, particularly where clover had been plower under or manure applied, acid phosphate is the proper fertilizer. The analysis should be selected with regard to type of soil, natural fertility, and previous cropping and treatment. Some Old Time Crops Have You Met Them? Did you miss your sassafras tea this spring? Have you saved any of the oldtime paw-paw bushes or trees? Do you have any hazelnut bushes in any of your old fence corners? Do you try to keep a supply of elderberry bushes? Hew about a hickory tree, a walnut tree or a butternut tree? In other places the chestnut or other nut trees grow. The May apple is common, or used to be in some sections. Do you recall the days when you wandered through the quiet woods in search of some of these bits of morsels that you liked to eat? Do we neglect to have these things? Not much work and a lot of oldtime memories are associated with some of these luxuries that just gTew wild and untamed. Some who read this will have other things in mind than those we here mention, but the thought will apply as well. There are different kinds of berries that grew wild, We wonder whether any of our readers ever dug up a sprouting beechnut and ate it? A walk in the woods takes you back to nature and makes you understand that there must be some great power somewhere to guide the world in its great swing and cycle among other worlds that inhabit the universe. o King Ferdinand of Rumania terminated his English visit recently. Queen Marie will be the guest of King George and Queen Mary for another fortnight. an Illinois poultry raiser was able to many times repaid him the amount invested. His house is 16 feet wide and 80 feet long. The front wall is five feet high and the rear wall five feet six inches. The low walls help conserve the heat given off by the fowls. The house has a south exposure with practically all windows and other opening on the south side. Plenty of sunlight is death to disease germs. Concrete construction permits the most complete sanitation because the house can very easily be cleaned and kept clean. It goes without saying that rats cannot gnaw through nor find nesting place in the concrete house. The smooth, dry, concrete floor, walls and foundation provide no cracks nor crevices to harbor lice, mites or other parasites which cause the poultryman so much worry and loss. Mr. Gardner's experience with his poultry house shows that increased egg production from a flock of 400 fowls amounts to. sufficient to pay for the house in four months. Preserving Eggs The season of the year for "putting down" or preserving egg* is at hand and many of our readers are asking for information as to just how this is best done. One method is so superior to all others that explanation is confined to it. The best method for prew i r i n g eggs is by the use of waterglass or, as the druggist describes it, Xdfem silicate. The work is so simple and the results are so good that Of course, nothing but nice clean eggs should be preserved. If the eggs are soiled they may be washed off with a damp cloth, but it better if only clean eggs just as they come from the nests are used. It is better also to put them in the preservative the very day they are laid, and as soon as the body heat of the hen has loft them It is not necessary to vvait for a whole jar to be done at once. Each day's spare eggs may be put down as they are gathered. No one protends that a stored egg of any kind is as good as a perfectly fresh one and usually it does not take an epicure to tell the difference between them. Nevertheless, an egg properly preserved by the waterglass method is a perfectly wholesome article of food and is tasty as well if used in cooking it will replace the fresh egg a full hundred per cent. More eggs should be preserved on the farm each year, and waterglass, also known as sodium silicate, provides the means by which anyone can do the work with a minimum of time, trouble and expense. Local drggists and grocers now have waterglass on their .•inelves and the price is reasonable, o Dr. Sun Yat-Sen, president of the South China government, whose death was reported to have occurred recently, is alive and perfectly well, his confidential secret-ary insisted to press representatives sent from Hong Kong to Sun's Canton headquarters, An interview with the president was denied.

Eastern States to Confer on Tuberculosis Eradication 1 ^r Leading veterinarians and livestock experts cf the country will discuss the progress and problems of tuberculosis eradication at the fifth annual conference of the Eastern States on the eradication of tuberculosis in livestock, to be held at Albany. N. Y., June 10, 11 and 12. The conference will be under the auspices of Livestock Sanitary Officials of Eastern States, New York Stale Veterinary Medical Society, New York Department of Farms and Markets and the Bureau of Animal Industry of the United States Department of Agriculture. Livestock sanitary officials and medical authorities will report on the problems of tuberculosis eradication. with particular reference to those of their respective states. Among the speakers will be Nathan Strauss, Jr., of New York City, United States Senator R. S. Copeland of New York, A. J. Glover, representing the agricultural press, Dr. J. R. Mohler, chief of the United States Bureau of Animal Industry, and Dr. J. A. Kiernan, chief of the Tuberculosis Eradication Division of the same bureau. The sessions and discussions will be open to the public. Both the economic and health aspects of tuberculosis will receive consideration. Headquarters of the conference will be at the Ten Eyck hotel and meetings will be held in Chancellors Hal! of the State Education building, Albany. (VContinued prevalence of cold Price* of Purebred Dairy Cattle Declined La«t Year Average sale prices of purebred dairy cattle for the year ending December 31, 1923, ranged from $133 for bulls under one year to $268 for bulls over three years of age, according to reports submitted by breeders to the United States Department of Agriculture. The breedjp included were: Ayrshire, Guernsey, Holstein, Jersey and Brown Swiss. More than twice as many animals were disposed of at private sale as were sold at auction. Auction prices however, averaged from $25 to $50 per head higher than those realized in private sales. Aged bulls were an exception, such animals bringing more in private sales than at auction. The following comparison by ages shows that prices in 1923 were somewhat lower than in 1922: Ages 1922 Bulla under one year $156 Bulls over one and under three years 221 Bulls over three years 435 Heifers under one year.... 131 Cows and heifers over one and under three.... 211 Cows over three years.... 285 The top bull and cow each brought $7,500. The number of animals represented were: Calves under one year 4,845; bulls over one year and under three 947; bulls over three years 156; heifers and cows over one year and under three 2,479, and cows over three years of age 2,977. 1923 $133 206 268 133 229 261 Sterilise Milk Utensils to Avoid Disease Risk Besides adding large numbers of bacteria to milk, unsterilised utensils teria. Such types are the ones that weather, with heavy rains and even cause milk to putrefy and undergo a heavy snowfall in the north, keeps change* that may make it dangerous. the in uenza death rate on a mount- j Furthermore, if utensils have been ing scale in England and Wales. ' washed in contaminated water and I are not sterilized, disease bacteria may be introduced into the milk. Cans which have not been properly sterilized and dried give off foul odors after having stood for a while 4^ tightly covered. This is due to the action of decay-causing bacteria on particles of milk solids left in the cans. If such a can is washed and sterilized thoroughly the foul odor will not return upon standing. Utensils should be washed and sterilized immediately after use in order to prevent the multiplication of great numbers of bacteria on the inner surface of the utensils. In one experiment, milk showed 666,520 bacteria per cubic centimeter after coming in contact with un sterilized utensils, even though the utensils had been washed (but not sterilized) immediately after milking. In similar tests ia which eight hours were allowed to elapse before washing, the averag* factorial count of the milk was 1,- 667,000, or a million greater than when the utensils were washed immediately. The best remedies for dirty utensils are plenty of hot water, an alkali washing powder, a stiff brush, asd steam. First of all, the utensils must be thoroughly cleansed, as sterilisation is not a substitute for washing. First, rinse the utensils in cold or lukewarm water; then wash thoroughly until clean with hot water and washing powder, using a stiff brush. Avoid rags, greasy soaps, and soap powders.—Farmers' Bulletin 602.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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