Headquarter* Fc^r Migajfinfe BROWN'S DRUG STORE rfaefettey, MH&h. State Fair Features With members of the National GraDge whom N. P. Hull, Vice- President of the Michigan State Agriculture Society and Grand Master of the State Grange interviewed while in the east at the Democratic National Convention the Michigan State Fair proved most interesting and so much so that Oliver Wilson, Grand Master of the National Grange promised to be the gnest of the4 State Fair on Gleaner's Day and address the members of the Boys State Fair School and the young tillers of soil now at work on the miniature model farms. The demonstration of good road building, the new dairy building with demonstrations of butter and cheese making and commercialising of milk, the land show and many other innoviations were all so interesting that it was also purposed to Mr. Hull that an invitation be extended to Gov. Woodrow Wilson, nominee for president of the United states that he be present to open the Fair and this was accordingly done. The prospects according to Mr.Hull are very bright. The object of the directors of the Fair is to creat an tfhnual event of both agricultural amd industrial interests, a Fair to show the real resources of the State was commended heartily by the members of the Grange who believe that a step in the right, direction has been taken. Poor Judgement We have arrived at the conclusion that most of the trouble in this world is caused by so many men and women using poor Judgement, but for heaven's sake don't tell them so. A man who cannot sit beside a keg of beer twenty minutes and keep outside of it, exercises poor judgement. The man who tries to make love to every pretty girl he meets usee poor judgement, and usually winds up in the bug house with his carbuerater busted. The man who goes forth looking for a scrap uses poor judgement;yea verily, for he shall return with his slats caved in and his nose flatened. The man who expects to beat a money slot machine uses poor judgement in dropping in the first nickel— they are fixed to win. The man who disputes a muscular women with a rolling pin uses poor judgement—him for the hospital. A married women who goes skylarking around making goo goo eyes at the men and neglect a good home uses poor judgement, and gets all that is coming to her before the sun finally set* in her life. The gambler, the thief, the gossip, the dope fiend* the agnostic, the drunkard, the wayward in all walks of life use bad judgement. May fool the people and feel real slick about it but yon can't fool the Master of the Universe and the man of good judgement obeys his laws and lives happily,— Fowlerville Standard. U. S.

A Pleasant aid Profitable Evening The concert given here by the Lyric Quartette of Chicago last Wedneaday evening was an unqualified success. Despite the warm weather a large number of people from Pinckney and vicinity attended, and listened appreciatively to a well chosen and well rendered progam. It is alway difficult to induce the farmers, after a hot, tiresome day in the fields to ride perhaps three or four miles to a concert or lecture. The thought of sitting quietly for a couple of hours in a stiff white collar and tight shoes is not always alluring to a tired man. Hence it was gratifying td see the well filled opera house and the close attention of the audience. The animation of the singers, their harmoniously blended voices and the clear ennunciation pleased everyone. The wish was universal that at some ^future date the Lyric Quartette may pass this way again. Real M e Transfers Marion Gates to Jesse Ellsworth 40a. Marion $2300. Fred Salmon and wife to Thos. J.

And then remorseful for her amazed expression, 1 explained frankly: "Got It from your father this morning, don't you know, during our long talk about you In the llbjrarv.'' Then Ehe swallowed and her face fell perfectly blank. By Jove, I could have kicked myself for a Jolly ass for breaking It to her so raw! Of course, she would know that If her father talked of her, It would be nothing for me to hear that waa true or k i n d - nothing she could wish might be said to the man she loved. I hastened to reassure her: "But I don't believe a dashed word of anything he said about you"—1 spoke hotly—"and I don't care a Jolly hang for what the others said, elttier —«o there you are!" "Oh, you^ don't?" Could tell how 1 had touched her by her expression, don't you know; and she fell to looking at me the queerest way. "And would you mind telling me who the 'others' are?" I eyed her gloomily, sympathetically. As If she didn't know already! "Well—oh, dash it, my mind has been filled with—er—Jast anything!" I began cautiously. "I know,"—she murmured it as if to herself—"one can see that!" And she bit tier Up. "In the first place, you know"—and there I polled up. No, dash it, I wasn't gofag to say a Jolly word about poor Jack—no, sir! But tfcen, about the other one—well, she was Just a treacherous* snake in the what's-itsname, and she ought to be? exposed. By Jove, she should be! "It's the frump, you know," 1 said indignantly. "The—the what?" Her pretty teeth flashed' like the keyboards of a tiny organ—you could even hear a1 little gurgly, musical quiver somewteere behind. AMPS* then I remembered that, of coura*, she wouldn't know whom I meant. "Oh, your gaest, you know—your friend from school," I went era, trying to tread cautiously and yet feeling myself growing red.

And no one could look into that sweet, ingenuous face as 1 proceeded, and doubt that the slanders were new to her. Never a Jolly one touched her—only you could see their absurdity amused her. Several times I had to pause as Bhe bent under a gale of laughter. Only once was she brought up, shocked. "Oh!" she uttered faintly, as I came to the intimation about her being hailfellow- well-met with the footmen and her drinking and carousing with them and other men-servants until three in | the morning. I realized that It wasn't the matter of tbe drinking that feazed her and drew from her little gasps as I came to this—knew that didn't bother her, don't you know, for I knew she did drink—could drink, I mean to say; for I had not forgotten the two full whisky glasses ee highproof Scotch she had tossed off that night la my rooms.

Always had BO dashed little patience with stupid people, don't you knowr' And Just here another little thing came to me and 1 let her have It: "Oh, 1 say!"—I leaned nearer, chuckling—"your father pretends to think her a most beautiful and winning girl—fancy!" And my face stretched itself In Buch a Jolly grin that I could hardly hold my glass. She bent toward me, smiling adorably. "You mean this—er—'Miss Kirkland?'" I nodded chortllngly. She" peered at me through her ions; what-you-cail-*ems—oh, such a way! "But you don't think so, do you?" How sweetly, how fetchlngly she said It "Me?" I gasped. By Jove. In my horror, I lost my grip upon my jolly grammar. "Oh, I gay now! I think the frump—this Miss Kirkland, you know—Is a fright—regular freak, dash it! I told the Judge so!" "You—you—" "Of course!" And I shrugged disgustedly, making the ugliest grimace I possibly could. "Why, dash it, If 1 were a woman and had a face like hers, I never would have left China, or England—or wherever her Jolly home was—no, sir!" * She caught her breath with a little gasp—then she was off again!

Lady Henry Somerset, whose labors in behalf of the children of the London slums are constant and earnest, tells this affecting story of the way in which her Interest In these little ones was aroused. I was moved in that direction by the rare patience and imagination of one little boy. His example convinced me that patience was one of the qualities I needed most, and in seeking It I grew into that work. I was In a bospitat on visiting day, while the doctors were changing a plaster cast which held tfce crippled boy'B limb. The operation was exceedingly painful, 1 was told. To my surprise, the little sufferer neither stirred nor winced, but made a curious buzzing Bound with his mouth. After the doctors left I said to him: "How could you possibly stand it?" "That's nothing," he answered. "Why, I just made believe that a bee was stingln' me.

The use of the portable colony ? pens when It Is desired to separate house has rapidly come into favor for termers and commercial poultry plants, not only as a building for little chicks but through its other various uses. Such a house need oot be expensive, but should be solid to allow for hauling and moving from place to place, many times over rough ground and subject to severe handling In turning and placing. The portable colony house should,, not be so large but that it can be moved with one good team, and can he drawn through the ordinary farm gates to meadows or orchard where they are to be located. There are many different uses fog the colony house, some of which may be divided up for the different seasons. In the early spring they may be used as brooding houses, being eouipped with hovers or having in them indoor brooders which allow the chicks the heat of the brooder and the run of the remaining space, being entirely under cover from the severe weather, and allowing the poultryman to raise early chicks; or the house may be divided in two .or more compartments and hens may be given chicks, which gives them the same advantages of being under cover during the cold or stormy weather and still have room for exercise. By cutting openings for each compartment small parks may be made which will keep the birds separate to insure best advantages in growing the young stock, but will allow the birds the run of the outdoor quarters during the pleasant days. If the birds are of one breed there may not be the desire to keep them separate for long, and they may be allowed the run of any desired area as they have a keen sense of location and readily learn to return to their own quarters. As the season advances the chicks, can do without hover or hen. These may be removed and low^-percheB placed in the houses ten-""'or twelve 76- -—H End View of Portable Colony House. Inches from the floor so that the chicks may learn to roost. As the natural tendency seems to be to seek high places for night this is very easily learned by most birds or fowls, and with the exception of one or two of the heavier breeds as the Brahmas or Cochins, birds will not need to be taught to accommodate themselves to the new' conditions. The growing chicks will need some attention to Insure best results during the time they are on the range. They should always be supplied with fresh, clean water and should have "• grain' and mash food to bring them into good fitrong maturity for fall business. As there Will always be surplus cockerels in the flock, these may be separated just before the houses are hauled- to the range, which will leave the pullets and a few cock* _.erels to care for. The surplus may be "marketed at the age of eight to \welve weeks, when, as a rule; prices are good and the birds hare reached. , ft deslrftDle «Jse. / ~ For the feeding of maeh to the birds on range hoppers • may he devised which will hold food enough for a week or ten days without refilling. < By this system not much time will be required of an attendant to. scatter grain and provide fresh, water for the birds each day. If there happens to ^he, running water near the buildings T 'this will supply the need", arid in an exceptionally busy season the birds can, if necessary, have grain supply i in hopper or depend on the mash ration for extra food other than that which they pick about the meadow or. fields. If later in the season oats or wheat have been_ cut,'«id the field Is not to be used immediately, houses may be drawn to a location where the birds can pick up the'scattered grain, 1 which saves a great deal, of feeding and prevents lots which otherwise might occur. If the flocks are large : enough so that laying house* are provided when the birds are returned to these bouses in the fall the colony coop* may be abandoned entirely .until next season, or fney miy "be uied for storage rooms, hospital coops, or for the mating up of small breeding these from the regular flocks, There are many different styles of these houses and the^ndivldual may have choice In style of construction. A pattern ot portable house which is giving very good satisfaction at the Michigan Agricultural college is one which i s made at a total cost of about $25, including labor and paint, and which will accommodate from 100 to 150 of the little chicks at the start, 100 growing chicks on range, and flocks of ten or fifteen birds in laying quarters. The house is 7½ feet wide and may be made eight feet, if desired, by twelve feet long. It is built on runners four inches square, it being desirable to make these runners of some material which will be lasting and preferably will wear hard and smooth by the hauling. These runners extend lengthwise of the building and for convenience of hauling may be set in eight or ten inches from the edge of the building, although thiB feature is very objectionable from the .fact,that little chicks invariably get under' the houses, causing $> great deal of trouble and making it necessary to add extra blocking for the prevention of this. If the runners are placed to the edges of the house blocking need only be done at the ends, as the runners will block front and back. Pieces of 2x4-inch material are placed on edge for Joists, four feet apart, and the floor is then laid before the framework Is constructed. The studding is then toe-nailed to the-' floor, being, six feet long In fropfc^and four feet in back, and plaeeiT three feet apart; 2x4-lnch pieeelfare used as plates. - ^ The door ln-the front may be 2 feet 6 inchea^wfde by 6 feet, and on each sld>-OT the door a nine light 8x10- ch glass window, hung at the top to swing out, may be BO arranged as to allow its removal in summer, and the openlpg may be covered with wire netting or baTs to close the house. • In the arrangement of nests and feed boxes it is advisable to make these with Rlanting tops, which prevents the birds from roosting or resting on them, keeping them in much cleaner condition. The accompanying drawings will explain the con3truction of these houses, which may be modified if de» sired, to suit the tastes of the individual.

H. h. $ajqejbsu*i perintendent of the Rhode island itat? sanUorium, the earnings, of lUe exr patients of that institution, faring 'Hw year 1U11 would amount to ever J266,< 000. This is a sum three'times aa large a s that spent each yeat-forrn>ain"- tenaace of the Institution, including four per.cent, interest and depreciation charges. The actual earnings In 191^.of 170 ex-patients were obtained by Dr. Barnes. These ranged from 12 to $3} per week, the total earnings for the year amounting to $102,752. On this basis, Dr. Barnes computes the figures above given. He Bays, however: "While Institutions for the cure of tuberculosis are good investments, there is good reason for thinking that institutions for the isolation of faradvanced cases would be still better investments." Out of a total of 46,450 hospital days' treatment given, 39,147, or 84 per pent., were free, the treatment costing the state on an average $200 per patient. Out of 188 free cases investigated, 56 had no families and no income on admission to the sanitarium. Out of 132 patients having homes, the number in the family averaged 5.2, and the average family earnings were 5.46. In 59 cases the families had no tncome, and In only five cases were there any savings, none of which amounted to as much as $100. NOT ALWAYS SO. ctausjs Gladys—So you've broken with him.

The train had Just spun through a w^de, arid waste, leaving behind etoetfs of alkali dust The five men were grouped together, pretty well talked out oa general •objects, and each ready for a little excitement, when one of them pointed eat of the window, "See those footbine over there?

Then It was that a little insigniflcaat chap who had joined them fifty miles back.^y hla card a representative of a small beef concern, ruffled the nerves of the five travel weary mjm In a way he had not before. The little drummer, Blake, nodded his bald head, and Btarted In. to relate some of his exploits and went on: *Tou bet I wouldn't lay down for no man that walks here In the west or anywhere. Most of you fellows are from the east, I take It, and go through to the coast; but I do business round these parts; and Fve mixed with bad man In bad plaoes, and I've never laid down, but I've made some of them do it" He Ut a cigar with a self-satisfied air. The others said little, though one or two winked slyly, but all were of the same mind evidently; for when the conversation had ended, thoroughly killed by Blake, they drifted together in another part of the coach, after Blake had gone back into one of the rear,eoaches. "Say, but that little pup gave me one gigantic pain. If he saw a bad man, he'd'crawl down his shirt to get out of sight He don't know a gun from a hole in the ground," one of them exclaimed heatedly. The others concurred. ** "This is a deadly tiresome rid*. Cant we get up a little • excitement, and make him the goat?" another asked, eager for some excitement. They sat in thought for a few moments, then a young member o/ the group-spoke up. "I've got It! We ought to make a regular Jack of him to pay him for that hot air, and take some of the swelling out of him. What do you say to this? One of you go back and fix up klnda rough, know, some old duds, get a gun, and while the train's going slow up the ridge, come in and hold the bunch -up!" Brownell, an engineer; was to be the robber, because he was caxying a rough suit of clotheB for mountain work. The train stopped at, a watering station, then began the long hard pull over the Ridge. In the smoker all were reading earnestly except Blakp who was looking out the window. Suddenly a door opened and slammed, and a masked figure stood before, them. "Hands zup!" rang o,ut, sharply intonated. Every pair of hands went meekly up; Blake's face was a picture of surprise. The masked figure came along to each one, and obedientjy they yielded i | t o p ^ t up their worldly goods. As the r o b - l ^ ^ * ;ber passed in front of Blake, he, too, gave up his cash. "Aw, come on there Fat," ©ne ot the men sang out; "he'i a bad un— give It to him!" A roar of laughter went up. Brownell slipped off hts mask, exposling a grin that went from ear to ear. "Shut down on the hot air, Beef," he said; "and dont come butting in on the conversation of gentlemen unless you're asked." Blake was staring out of the window; he turned, and in a flash he stood In the aisle, gimlet-eyed and grim, holding in his hand a black big Colt—not the toy in his case. "Quick! hand over that m<m," his words Bizsled. *1 want that moo—«fs my Joke, now! lor—* Brownell started at him with an <aagry oath.

SUICIDE BUREAU A SUCCESS More Than 4,000 Persons Saved From Self-Destruction in London 8lnce It Started. Many Interesting pages from the great book of life are to be found In the report of the operations of the Salvation Army's anti-suicide bureau. Since it was started 4,754 persons have called to lay their embarrassments before Colonel Emerson, and have asked him to "show cause"—as the lawyers say—why they should not: put an end to their lives. The largest number put down the cause of their trouble to financial reasons; after this come drink or drugs, and melancholia. The applicants come from almost every class except the workers. There are clergymen, missionaries, military officers, doctors, solicitors, schoolmasters, clerks and company promoters. They have all been dealt with according to their needs, and such help has been given them as their cases seemed to demand. Legal and medical advice has been afforded?; creditors have been reasoned with, reconciliations have been brought about with relatives. And the work, according to General Booth, has been successful beyond highest expectation.— London Chronicle.

"Nature never rhymes her children, •or makes two men alike." So says Emerson, and the mothers of young families might do no worse than take this saying as a nursery motto. It is curious how few parents, comparatively realise the wisdom of this, and consequently how many homes are marred and rendered unproductive by being made "forcing" instead of "temperate" houses for the young lives they contain. The creeds, Ideas, thoughts and ca-t prices of the parents are forced on the child; he Is molded or "patterned" by the parent, according" to that parent's standards.

A man ha* 500 muscles, 1.00O,- 000,000 cells, 200 different bones, four gallons of blood, several hundred feet of arteries and veins, more than twenty- five feet of Intestines, and millions of pores. His heart weighs from eight to twelve ounces, Its capacity from four to six ounces In each ventricle. and its size is 5 by 8½ by 2½ inches. It Is a hollow, muscular organ, and pumps twenty-two and one-half pounds of blood every minute. In twenty-four hours the heart pumps sixteen tons. It beats about 6eventy-two times a minute. In one year as average man's heart pumps 11,680,000 pounds of blood. The heart Is a willing sjave, but It sometimes strikes—and ft'v-always wins. Commenting on the cost of books, a Harvard man remarks that while modern reprints of standard literary works can be obtained at moderate prices, volumes of more strictly contemporaneous interest are now habitually held at an unduly high price. As a consequence college students and others of moderate means are deterred from owning, aside from prescribed textbooks, such volumes as they need most, says the Rochester Post-Express. It is explained that with the exception of a prospective "best seller," or school-textbook, the publisher argues that no more than, say, 3,000 copies could be sold, however, low the price, whereas there are at least 800 municipal and collegiate libraries. which "must have" a copy; and it will be better business. In his opinion, to sell 800 copies at $5 each than 3,000 copies at $1.25. Size of type, page, margins and thickness of binding do much toward giving the appearance of value, It is also observed that the publisher doeB not overlook in his calculations the wealthy amateur who Is "completing" his collection on a certain, topic. Wild game birds are the property of all citizens, under the Roman and continental law. On this principle of common ownership the states of this country have enacted their laws. But what of birds th^t alight but a short time within one state, then fly to another, and to yet other states? Are they not the property of the people of the Union? Because no state cares for them, the migratory birds of the United States are going the way of the great auk, the passenger pigeon and the parrokeet, says the New York Times. William 3. Saskell of the American Game Protection and Propagation association argued before the Benate committee that, though the title to the migratory btrds has never been adjudicated, common sense would suggest that it belongs to the federal government, and the authorities at Washington should give ample protection to this fast vanishing wild life.

' TORNADO HITS GRAND RAPIDS Various Matters of Note In and About the National Capital Briefly Told. Request for time to file an answer to the impeachment charges against Judge Robert W. Archbald, of the commerce court, was the only action taken l*y his counsel, A. S. Worthington, when the defendant appeared at the bar of the senate. Senator Penrose, of Pennsylvania, spoke strongly in favor of granting the jurist ample time to prepare his answer. Seventy days was asked. Attorney Worthington did not enter on his defense proper and would give no Intimation UB to what line of argument he intends to pursue. The impeachment court named July 29 as the date on which Judge Archbald must make answer to the 13 counts of .his impeachment. The proceedings opened with an unusual degree of solemnity. The firat order was a call of the roll of those senators to whom the oath as Judges of Impeachment had not been administered. None of the senators not sworn waB present. Senator Bailey declared he favored a trial before the summer adjournment and would urge such action, but that he favored giving the attorney for Judge Archbald time to answer the charges. Mr. Clayton after a conference with the other house managers, suddenly withdrew his objection to the extension of time. The senate then ordered Judge Archbald to answer the charges against him Monday, July 2t>. The house managers were ordered to present their rebuttal answer Aug. 1 and the limit of time for all supplementary answers was fixed as Aug. 'A. At this time the issues in the case will be required to be complete. Catlin Used Too Much Money. By strict party vote the house election committee No. 2 Thursday voted to unseat Rep- Theron E. Catlin, of St, LOUIB, Republican, and to seat former Rep. Patrick Gill, Democrat. Mr. Catlin's campaign expanses were BO great that the committee held his election to have been corrupt. It also held that Gill would have been elected but for the use of money by Catlin's managers. The vote was t--ix to three. Catlin's majority in the 1!)'10 returns was 1,200. According to the record, Rep, Catlin's campaign expenditures aggregated more than $1::,000. It was contended by his counsel that much ot the money was used by his father without the candidate's knowledge. The Missouri law permits the expenditure of $(102. Rep. Catlin is the son of a millionaire tobacconist of St. Louis. He is serving his first term in congress, and is :U years old. One Man Dead From Shock; Forty Injured; $67,000 Loss. Grand Rapids was bit early Saturday morning by a tornado that indirectly caused the death of one man, injured 4U or more persons and did $50,000 worth of damage. The storm entered the city from The southwest about 4 o'clock. The first place struck was the city market and the Grand Rapids Central league baseball park near by. The market was crowded with farmers with their teams, as trading had just begun. A terrific lightning and thunder storm which had been approaching had given no warning of the danger N from the wind, but suddenly there were screams of, fright as a whirling balloon-like cloud approached, raping from the southwest and headed directly toward the market place. With a roar which was deafening the roof of the ball park grandstand was lifted high in the air. It seemed to hang suspended for a moment and then, shattering into a veritable rain of great planks and beams, was dashed upon the frightened men and wagons in the market place. Immediately there was a panic. Terror-stricken horses reared and dashed frantically to escape. WagonB were overturned. Men and women were thrown prone by the fury of the wind and run over and rendered unconscious by the dashing teams. Where a moment before the hundreds of loads of produce had been in orderly array awaiting the beginning of the morning's trading there was chaos. Police reserves were called out at once to care for the victims. Titanic Captain Lives? Capt. E. J. Smith, commander of the Titanic, was not drowned but has been seen safe and sound in Baltimore, it was persistently declared by Peter Pryal, a wealthy retired mariner, who was a shipmate of Captain Smith for more than 17 years Mr. Pryal says he met Capt. Smith on Thursday and accosted him, bin the captain brughea by him angrily, The next day, he declares, he saw him again and followed him around the city to a railroad station, where the cautain bought a ticket for Washington. Just as he was about to pass through the gates, Pryal declares, the man turned to him and greeted him by name. "I am on business; don't worry me, Pryal," he said. "Be good to yourself, old shipmate, till we meet again." DR. HAMILTON W. MABIE Girl Slayer Drowns Himself.

RooseveK'c Wiabes Seem to Have Been Fully Complied With and. "State Ticket" Eliminated. . For governor—Senator L. Whitney Watkins. For United States Senator—Theodore M. Josiin. For congressman-at-large—Nathan P. Hull. The final result of the convention held by Progressive Republicans at Jackson is that a complete ticket will be put in the field. A separate state organization is formed and a resolution was adopted .declaring in favor of new party state, county, congressional, legislative, city, township and ward tiCKets. Former Republican State Chairman Frank Knox had made himself the leader of the stateticket faction. , He fought hard against the third tickets locally. It was plain that the Knox faction were in a bad way before the convention convened and with the arrival of Sen. Dixon and his declaration for the gothe- iimit policy, Knox surrenderee. When the resolution introduced by Wr. H. Hill, of Detroit, declaring for the third state, county and local tickets came up for discussion, Knox took the platform and said: "Col. Roosevelt has seen fit to change his mind as to the course we should pursue. The first orders 1 took from anybody as a boy just out of college were from Col. Roosevelt, as a member of his rough rider regiment. I am still taking my orders from Col. Roosevelt. I will support and work for a third party ticket all down the line." The convention chose presidential electors, national delegates and alternates and state central committee as follows: Presidential Electors.

The platform adopted contains these planks: We favor a presidential primary law giving to the people the right to vote directly for their choice of president, with a clear provision that the delegates selected shall choose a na* tional committeeman whose term of office shall begin immediately after the holding of said primary election and prior to the making of the temporary roll of membership in the national convention. We favor the Initiative, the referendum and the recall. We favor the recall of all officials when corrupt or incompetent. We condemn the usurpation by the judiciary of those functions of government which belong to the legislative department by giving to Btatute law. the force and effect not intended by the elected legislative servants of the people. We favor the separation of the Judiciary from politics. We favor principles rather than men. We favor a law which shall compel all candidates for office upon the state ticket and candidates for United States senator and congressmen and each candidate for the legislature to file with the secretary of state, at least 30 days before election of principles upon state and national issues. We favor the passage of a corrupt practices act governing boCTi primaries and elections, with ample penalties for violations of the same.' We favor a continuance of the present policy of greater economy In state affairs, to the end that takes shall not increase out of proportion to the increase of the state's population and assessable wealth.

The Middle-Aged^ Woman. Of the many way* In which the middle- aged woman may vary the effect of her afternoon gowns none is simpler than the use of a collar and cuffa of white voile edged with scalloping: and embroidery In a floral design. Another change may be the. frock set ot white chiffon with border of black mallnes, and still another Is the one of black net hemstitched with, silver thread. Some of these collars are so long in front that they terminate only at the waist line, where they cross in surplice effect and are tucked away under the girdle. An excellent model of this sort is of light blue lawn embroidered with black dots, and a second is of white agaric trimmed with, tiny folds of broadcloth, alternating with eponge. Too Eager. Fred Poyner, a- Chicago dentist, was recently at a banquet given by the Dental association. He said; "On one side is the right of things and on the other is wrong; sometimes the difference between the two is slight. As the following story shows: A gypsy upon release from jail met a friend. 'What were you lo for?' asked the friend. " 'I found a horse,' the gypsy replied. '*.: " 'Found a horse? Nonsense! They would never put you in jail for finding a horse.' " 'Well, but you see I found him before the owner lost him.' " Lieut. Preusser, a German military aviator, was killed in Leipsig as he was making a landing after a flight.

More than seven-eighths of the excavation work on the Panama canal has been completed. June 1, according to the canal record, 22,053.815 cubic yards, or less than one-eighth of the total amount of earth and rock to be taken out of the canal route, remained to be excavated. At the rate the great steam shovels are working, this can be done in time to have the waterway ready for Opening on seed' ulte, January 1, 1915. Voice of Conscience. A western Kentucky negro was ia jail awaiting trial for stealing a calf. His wife called to see him. On her Avay out the jailer, whose name was Grady, halted her, "Mandy," he inquired, "have youj got' a lawyer for Jim?" "No, sab," said his wife. "Ef Jim was guilty I'd git him a lawyer right away; but he tells me he ain't guilty, and so, of co'se, I ain't aimln' to hire none." "Mr. Grady." came a voice from the cells above, "you tell dat nigger woman down thar to git a lawyer—and git a dam' good one. too!"—Saturday Evening Post. Excellent Plan. "I see," said Mrs. De Jones, while Mrs. Van Tyle was calling, "that you have a Chinese chauffeur. Do you, find him satisfactory?" "He's perfectly fine," said Mrs. Van* Tyle.

Major Henry B. Alvord, In the Iowa Homestead, says: "If the prime object la to produce the greatest quantity of milk of the best quality and at "the greatest profit from any given uluHber of caws within a year, the evidence Is overwhelming that the cows should be managed so as to calve in the autumn months. For like reasons September Is t&fi-best month A Well-Bred Calf. In most parts of the country for a heifer to drop her first calf in order to best develop as a cow, and this almost regardless of the age of the animal at first calving. Calves born in the fall are easier reared and make •better cows than those born in the Spring or summer. It seems needless to rehearse the stock arguments pn this subject, based upon the long experience of successful dairymen, but a brief recapitulation may be useful. The cow or heifer calving in the fall needs the most healthy and nutritious pasture first Tollowlng the strain and while coming into full flow. Just at the time when some falling off is likely to occur, the animal is brought to the stable and receives good care. The winter feeding and the returns from it may be depended upon to exceed the mid-summer results for a like period. At the stage of milking and of gestation, when another dropping off in the milk yield may be looked for, the fresh pasturage induces a fresh flow, lengthens the milking season and increases the product. December and January are good months in which to control and supervise the service of the bull," CLEAN SKIN OF MUCH VALUE SUNLIGHT FOR MILK UTENSILS One of the Best Known Disinfectants —Nothing Better for Cans After Being Washed. Sunlight is one of the best of disinfectants and it is free to everybody.

The drawing shows a handy aun rack on which cans, pails and strainers may be conveniently hung. It !a just as useful for kitchen utensils.

Thus she most have a large middle and strong constitution to insure best results. She must also nave a large udder, large milk wells, large crooked Bilk veins and good sited teats. Her head shouW be lean and angular in appearance, with the) eyes standing out prominently, The seek should be rather long and clean In appearance, t o * shoulder* pointed1 and the backbone rather prominent The skin should be loose and soft to the touch. A Sell Nonpaytnfl Cows, Very few men will hesitate in dis* posing of a nonpaying cow if be can Hte convinced that she is in that class, ft** is ignorance alone that keeps so many poor milkers as work milking poor cows. '{ Least Waste of Cream. If. the milk Is separated immediately after ft'is drawn and before the anU mat warmth has time to escape there V i l U s i the least possible waste of If Pores Are Kept Open Cow la More Apt to Be Healthy—Use Comb and Brush Every Day. Nature has given all living crea* tures a wonderful covering for the body. The skin is a most perfect and yet an exceedingly simple system of carrying off impurity and at the same time of providing the body with needed nourishment from the air, through the mysterious channels of absorption. Every cow's body is completely covered with thlB network of cells. If these are kept clean and open, so that they may do their work, the cow will be more apt to be healthy than if they become closed. This has been most strikingly proven by covering the bodies of animals with a sort of varnish which will not admit air, and the poor creatures soon die. their heart and lungs being fairly engorged with blood, just as would be the case if 4hey were smothered. Do we need anything more to prove that it stands us in hand to keep the bodies of our cattle clean by the use of a brush and comb not now and then, but every day, regularly? If this be not done, the pores of the Bkin get closed with the dust which is always present in our stables, especially at this time of the year, when we are feeding hay and other food that is apt to fill the air with flying particles. At once the cow begins to suffer. She cannot digest her food as she" would otherwise, and she requires more food and richer food to maintain life in a good degree. POINTS IN CARING FOR M'LK Liquid Placed in a Clean BottU Is Practically Free From Outage Contamination. The nine rules given below will prove of considerable value to any dairyman: 1. Bottle milk Is practically free from outside contamination and 13 the preferable form for purchasing it. 2. Can milk is liable to contamina. tion from dust, from heat, and .'rom strong-smelling substances in the refrigerator. 3. The top and outside of the bottle should be rinsed off with warm water 8imple Method of Cooling. before being opened, as tho milkman usually carries the bottles by the top or neck, and more or less dirt and bacteria are certain to be transferred to the outside of the bottles. 4. Place the milk at once in a refrigerator, in cold water or in a cellar. Keep the covers on the bottles as it prevents material falling in, and also prevents absorption of odors. 5. Wash and scald the bottle as soon as empty. 6. Clean vessels only should be used for holding milk sold by measure. These should have tight-fitting covers. 7. Never mix fresh and stale milk, as all becomes tainted or sour in a short time. 8. Milk slightly sour can be sweetened by the addition of a small amount of lime water. Pasteurisation will add to its keeping quality. This latter is not good policy, but Is a remedy for a common evil. 9. Do not buy milk because it is cheap, for usually it is the dearest in the end. DAmYNOKV A s old stagnant pond Is no place for a cow to slack her thirst Cows differ somewhat In the amount of roughage, they will take. Every dairy fanner should organize a cow-testing association of bis own. A "boarder" in the dairy nerd Is a sign of an owner who ie satisfied with life as it is. The mangel is excellent for stock feed, being greatly relished by milk cow* in winter. When butter refuses to "gather" the cream may be too sour or the temperature too low. Provided yoru cow ts a good one. the more she is fed along; right lines the more she will give. Stringy milk is brought on by g fermentation in the udder caused by a certain form of bacteria. Milk left in the pall of the skimmilk calf means sour milk In a very short time these hot days. To be sweet and clean it Is desirable that the cow stable be whitewashed at least twice a year. The .best cow Is the one that can consume the largest amount of roughage and use it to the best advantage. The number of acres required to feed a' herd of twenty cows in fun milk will depend largely upon the condition of the ground and the sea* MICHIGAN HAPPENINGS SOME CLEANING HINTS M E T H O D * T H A T W I L L BOTH RENOVATE AND PRESERVE.

Lansing.—A pretty romance culminated , when William £. Morgan and Miss Helen E. Baker were married. The acquaintance of the couple began two years ago, when he rescued her from Pine lake into which she had been precipitated by a capsizing canoe. The young man plunged into the water and swam several hundred feet to where Miss Baker was in a desperate battle with the waves. Her esuort was clinging to the canoe and did not offer her any assistance. Evart.—Two men from southern Michigan are dragging the lakes of Osceola with nets for the purpose of securing turtles. The supply of turtles suitable for food in the lakes of the southern part of the state ha£ been nearly exhausted. These men shTp this meat in great quantities and unless some step is taken in the near future to protect the turtle it will soon be exterminated hereabouts. Jackson.—John Trowbridge, a convict who escaped from the prison farm, returned to the prison voluntarily. He told Warden Simpson that he slept out of doors and that he awakened to a realization of his foolishness and desired to be sent back to the farm. Trowbridge came from Ionia January 29, last, on a two to ten years* sentence for assault with Intent to do great bodily harm less than the crime of murder. Lansing.—The trial of the molders charged with violating the injunction of Judge Collingwood relative to picketing, was completed Just before court adjourned. The case was tried without a Juryi and the decision was rendered by the Judge. He exonerated all but Harry Langley. Langley was the chairman of the committee appointed by the strikers to picket the factory In question. Jackson.—Rev. E. D, Rundell. aged seventy, pastor of the Ganson Street Baptist church, died at tho White Cross sanitarium following an operation. Rev. Rundell was a prominent minister of this city and was well known throughout the state. For three years he was chaplain of the Jackson state prison. He Berved as pastor at Caro, New Buffalo and Three Oaks In this state. Pontiac.—Charles Helt, aged sixteen, who gives his home as 241 Third avenue, Detroit, is held at the county Jail on a charge of horBe stealing. He was caught in the act of driving off a horse and carriage belonging to William J. Purdy of Southfleld township. Howard Stolls, son of a neighbor of the Purdys, recognized Helt driving the Purdy rig and stopped him. Cadillac.—Alone and with one portion of his body paralyzed, G. R. & I. Operator C. E. Northway, succeeded in extinguishing the biasing roof of his shanty at Missaukee Junction, and saving the building. Northway is learning to be left handed and his long service for the company secured him a Job as soon as he could walk, following the stroke. Cadillac.—Two weeks ago C. A. Boyce of Barryton came here in a dying condition and was taken to Mercy hospital, where he died. Boyce wanted to die as near Clam lake cemetery as he possibly could, thus saving the extra expense and.danger of a railroad wreck In.having his body brought here from Barryton after death. Adrian.—Mrs. George Metcalk com* mltted suicide by hanging herself from the cellar door of her home in Seneca township, three miles south of Weston. The woman strangled herself to death by leaning back on a rope strung from the top of the door. She leaves a son, Ira, besides the husband, two brothers and one sister. Ionia.—Mrs. Bert Shattuck, who baa been in the Traverse City State hospital several times but who has been repeatedly released on account of apparent return to sanity, was again brought to the county Jail here to he taken to the hospital again. During the night at the jail she made. an attempt to kill herself by hanging. Iron Mountain.—-The residence of Mayor R. L. Hammond wss partially wrecked by dynamite. The explosive was placed beneath the kitchen df the house and Ignited by >, long fuse. The rear of the residence was destroyed and furniture and glassware la other parts of the house damaged. Mrs. Hammond, wife of the mayor, was the only member of the family at boms and was uninjured. No clue to the dynamiter has been found. The h o v e of former Mayor MtHer was wrecked in the same manner sevsrai years ago, _ Use Spirits of Wine, With Warm Water, to Freshen Satin—Proper Care of Gl as*—Washing Soda for 8ilver. TQ Clean Satin.—Take equal propor* tlons of spirits of wine and warm water, sponge the satin on the right side with this, working down the material and not across it. While still damp, Iron on the wrong side. Another plan is to clean the satin with the following mixture: Four ounces pf honey, the same quantity of melted soap mixed with one egg and one wineglass of gin, using a stiff brush. When the satin appears clean, rinse in cold water; press between clean clothB to dry or hang up to drain. Iron -while still damp, and thoroughly dry before folding. Care of Glass.—There is nothing that repays one more for careful washing and drying than glass. First one must have a bowl of warm water softened with dissolved soap, which makes a very good lather. Too hot water should not be used, as it might crack the glass. Have a bowl of clean water to rinse the glass In after washing it and if a very fine polish be desired on it have a third bowl of cold water with a little ammonia in it. Wash each article separately, rinse it well, and dry with a soft glass cloth, which should be made of linen or little, fluffy particles" will itick to the glass and spoil the appearance. When It is washed and dried polish with a leather kept for the glass, or with a silk handkerchief or with some aoft tissue paper. How to Clean Silver.—Have an aluminum pan containing about two gallons of cold water. In this dissolve a piece of washing soda about the size of an egg, and heat the solution to boiling point. Drop into this the silver to be cleaned, taking care to keep the whole at boiling point. Let the silver soak for three or four minutes. Lift out with a wire spoon or longhandled fork, wash in hot soap suds and wipe quickly with a perfectly dry towel. The pieces so cleaned will be as highly polished as when new. This process will neither injure plated nor solid ware. When all the silver is finished, if there are any pieces that do not look white and clear, rub them with a little dry whiting and a dry duster; then polish off with a soft, dry cloth. To Wash Feather Boa.—Prepare a soap lather and one or two' lukewarm rinsing waters. Place the boa in the soap lather and wash it by squeezing between the hands till quite clean. Rinse It well tq take out all the dirty water and soap. When this is done, squeeze the water out of the feather and roll in a cloth, which will absorb the moisture. Take hold of the boa by the ends and twist each in the opposite direction, thus giving the natural twist to the boa. Fasten a piece of tape to each and tie these to a line to prevent the twist from becoming undone. Shake the boa to separate the fronds, and leave it until quite dry, occasionally shaking it to keep the fronds apart. The drying process should be done In a warm place, so that It will dry quickly, and the fronds thus become fluffy, when it is ready for curling. FOOL QUESTION ANSWERED. -rvr **•-...»•, Percy—If I were rich, my darling, would you love me more than you do? Virginia—I might not love you any more, Percy, but I know I would look forward to our wedding day with a degree of impatience that never seems to possess me at present. "What's going on here?" demanded a man as he came upon two little boys battling in a vacant lot on the south side. The lad who was on top was rubbing weeds over the face of the under one. "Stop it," said the man, grabbing the victor by the neck and pulling him away. '"What in the world are you trying to do to his face with those weeds?" "Do? Why, he swore in front of some girls, and I rubbed some smartweed in his eyes to become a great man like Abraham Lincoln,"—Pittsburg Sun. Cream Mash. Chop veal or beef as fine as for hash, fry for a few minutes in salt pork drippings. Take from the fire; in the same frying pan make a rich, well-seasoned cream gravy If cream is possible; if not, use milk, thickening with cornstarch and adding a generous lump of butter. Pour half of the gravy into a pan over the fire, thin it with hot water, dip in slices of well-browned toast, then lay the moistened toast in a flat dish and set in a warm place. Into the thick cream gravy put the minced meat; cook It five minutes and spread it on the toast. Delicious. Pumpkin Chips. Eight pounds pumpkin cut in thin and rather small pieces, four lemons sliced very thin, five cents' worth of ginger root, Ave pounds granulated sugar. Put this all together and let stand all night Next dsy boll It four hours, then take from stove, let stand until cold, put in jelly glasses and cover with parafflne. This Is especially good at breakfast, as it makes an Inexpensive and very palatable marmalade.— Home Department, National Magazine. Add Lemon Juice. When using beef or mutton dripping instead of butter for pastry try beating It to a cream with a squeeze of lemon juice. This will take away the taste that some people object to in dripping made pastry snd makes it beautifully light and crisp. Rubber Cake. One cup sugar, one and a half cups flour; one cup sour milk; one-half teaspoonful sods; two teesnoonfuls cinnamon, one teaapoonful cloves, yolks of two eggs; beat all together and bake in a quick oven. To Clesn the Carpet If your carpet or rug is badly soiled, take a basin of water, put i n three or four teaspoonfuls of ammonia, wash thoroughly and dry.

At any rate a woman's shoes haven't yet reached the point where they button up the back. When He Can't Be Overlooked. Somehow or other we never take much notice of tho coming man till he gets there. A girl may nor marry the best man at her own wedding, but she should try to make the best of the man she marries. Only a married man can fully appreciate heaven if there are no wash days or house cleaning seasons there. Many a girl strives to make a name for herself rather than attempt to make a loaf of bread. Goodness does not more certainly make men happy than happiness makes them good.—Landor. Unless a woman is a first-class artist she seldom has a good complexion. Poets are born—and most of the great ones are dead. Misinterpreted. ' " William Shaw, the secretary of the famous Christian Endeavor society; said IB a Witfy after-dinner address in Boston: "There is a little Back Bay girl who is much, interested in her auntie's Christian Endnavor work. The little girl was writing a letter to her brother at Yale one day, and in the midst of the epistle she looked up and said: " 'Auntie, how do you Bpell devil?* '"Devil!" cried her aunt, with a shocked smile. 'Why, child, don't you know you mustn't use such a word as devil?' "'But, auntie/ protested the little girl, "I want to tell brother about your Christian and devil meetings?'"

There are few things thas th© Salvation Army does not require at some time In its existence. And because it never hesitates to ask tor what it wants it usually gets It, says the New York Times. The other night a small hand of Army enthusiasts neefed umbrellas. Rain pelted down with stinging force, yet they refused to break ranks. A hoy with umbrellas to rent perceived their drenched condition and rushed up shouting: "Here are your umbrellas. Only 6 cents apiece till the meeting breaks up." None of the Salvationists seemed disposed to gain protection at that price, so their resourceful leader made an appeal In their behalf. Addressing the few bystanders he said: "If there are any persons in the audience who had contemplated contributing a little money to the cause,,will you kindly give It new that we majr rent these umbrellas which our young friend has offered us?" "Well, I'll swear," was the somewhat inappropriate comment of one man on the sidewalk, but he and his pinions contributed a quarter with whloh to rent umbrellas for the nv* women Salvationists.

One of the Incidents of the early days In Great Bend that caused a great deal of merriment among the white residents was the tkne the Indians bought all the parasols and umbrellas that were for sale in the town. This happened, along In the '70s and was en a rainr daev The'Injuns were on their way south and oame through the town of Great Bend. They saw a number of men and women on the streets with umbrellas and, being plentiful*; supplied with money and a desire to ow&.ene of the handy contrivances, they got busy. The funny part of it was that they made no distinction between toy parasols, silk ones and fche serviceable linen ones. It was not long until the entire vlsible^ supply of all the stores had been purchased. Then the fun began. Some of theJoy parasols were.made of cloth that was highly.colored and as soon as the water hit them the coloring matter began to mix with the water and drip down upon the Indians' clothes. They minded this not in the least and were seen going Southward whooping and seemingly In the very best of spirits.—Great Bend Tribune. Caught a Reel Goldfish. Fish stories. are rife now, and under the seductive Influence of this balmy time new versions come to light of the same old stories we have heard since boyhood days. Representative Plumley of Vermont, of portentously serious mien, asserted to a smiling group of colleagues that a couple of seasons ago he lost his watch and a $20 gold piece overboard while waiting by a placid pool for a bite. The next day, he declared under oath, he caught a fish in that self same pool—a "gold fish," of course—and he found within the finny armor of that Vermont bass bis watch, the $20 gold piece, and 30 cents accrued interest.—Joe Mitchell Chappie In Joe Chappie's News Letter.

This ia partly on account of the particularly heavy eeatraffic to the vicinity, bat it Is chiefly due to Cape Cod. It J# this crooked finger of land that haa beckoned % thousand ships to their doom and which in the iiollowa of its dunes holds many a tragic story Of lives snuffed out In deaperate grapple with wjave and. wind, < .. The night of Tuesday, March 11, 1902, was •Wild and storm-strewn. Running up along the •coasts the ocean-going tug Sweepstakes was, making bad weather with her tow of the two big barges, Wadena and John C. Flttpatrtck. For" hours the triple-expansion engines of the tug had been churning her Bcrew In the drift of the heavy head sea and shortly before daylight her •-captain discovered that she-was making no headway. He then decided to lie to and, while feelring about for. an anchorabe in the gloom, the bargee ran aground on the edge of Shovelful • Shoal, oat the southern end of Monoxnoy island, Massachusetts. When daylight came, the crew of the afonomoy 'life saving station boarded the barges, but finding tt'impoaeible ta. float them on the flood tide, took ^ their crew* ashore. It was six day* later that the disaster occurred Wreckers sent from Boston were at work on the barges. The ttig rtter Smith waa on the ground, having replaced the Sweepetakee. On the night of the 16th the weather thickened .and a gale swept In from ,the sea. **The night passed without incident, but early wa\ the morning of the 17th Keeper Eldridge of the Jlonemoy station received a telephone from i tha captain Of thji Smith asking him if every- ; thing was all rlgbi'oa the Wadena. This alarmed BVaadge. aa he did not know any one had been left ten the foerge all night. He started at once . for the point of the iseand, three miles away, to look over the situation. The Wadena lay half a mile off ah ore from the point She seemed to • be riding easily an the bar, but the distress was • flying from her rigging. This waa a signal Eld- ; ridge could not Ignore. « ft waa a terrific pull through the breakers that rolled In across the shoals to the Wadena, but the life-savers accomplished It and put their boat tinder the lee of the barge at about noon. Keeper Eldridge then directed the men to get into the snirfboat tad told thm that he would take them ashore. The rail of the big barge was a dozen feet from the water and it was here that the trouble began. The men on the barge lowered themselves over* aide on a rope, but as Captain Oisen, a very large man, waa halfway down, he lost his hold and fell on the second thwart of the lifeboat, breaking 'it and making It impossible for the rowers to use it. In addition, the boat waa crowded and the wind, which had been momentarily increasing, was tumbling huge combers into the wind- -ward of the barge. It waa Into this maelstrom of breakers that it waa necessary for the handl- -capped crew of the life-saving station to pull thetr overloaded; boat, and they made a swift rand able attempt to accomplish it At the Instant 'the starboard oarsmen were swinging the head of 'the life-boat to meet the sea, a giant comber lifted •under the quarter and dished a barrel of water -overside. That was the signal for a panic among the rescued men that before It subsided, cost •twelve lives. • The Portuguese wreckers, in a frenzy of fear, <*tood up in the boat rocking it to and fro in tffcelr endeavors to escape "the momentary inrush erf water* and though the life-savers TonghVto force them into the bottom of the craft this V-ooold not be done before the next shouldering -wdsmve .caa£hjt the bow of the boat swung her ' earoedslde and turned her over. < T i * h * * w ^ A . fMcsUrtirttrd* <oleewai« thS' breakers were jsanashlng themselves into white foam on the bar. There, was Just one, chance, in a million that the ftent could borighW Veto* the sen! carried her 'Into them. Once aha., reached them it would be <*tl' over. Hampered by the wreckers, the lifetwavers (ought desperately in those few minutes left before the combers should be reached. Three »^Hpes they righted the boat and strove heroically •to ball her, but each thne she waa again aver- 'turned. They were fighting the last tragic fight Every Man Hat where on grasp on the gunwale several times, disappeared I in the maelstrom of water. Thai left Ellis and %. Rogers, a big and very strong mam. ~* In this desperate moment Rogers threw his arms around the other surf man's neck In a death- " grip. For moments, while the sea battered and the foam strangled them, they fought the last : grim fight far life, Ellis to break the grip of his ?' frenzied comrade, Rogers to retain tt. Suddenly. ?•',: when it seemed that both muat dTown, Rogers' '\ strength left him. His arms relaxed; his eyes ' glazed. "I'm going!" he gasped and sank. A moment! later the boat drifted Inshore of the "" outer breakers and for a brief space was in ' smoother water. Ellis once more crawled out on the bottom and succeeded In pulling the center- • board out set that he could bold ott to it and better maintain his position. Now, you will remember that at the time of ** the stranding of the Wadena, the- John C. Fita- V'T patrlck, her slsteT barge had also gone aground. She had gone over the outer bar and was iy4ng between it and the inner breakers, On board her was Oapt. Elmer F. Mayo, of Chatham, who waa in charge ef lightening her, Thar ffcspatrick waa so far away from the Wadena that Captain Mayo, and two other men who were v*tt* him, did .not see the Itfe-savlog boat go out, nor did they have . any knowledge of the grim tragedy that was being : enacted, until, glancing over the rail, Captain ' Mayo saw an overturned life-boat with a single ' man clinging to it. The capsized boat was some* distance from the barge, but Mayo did not hesttate. 'Til get that fellow," he announced coolly/. On the deck of the Fltapotrick lay a small twelve-foot dory, the only boat aboard, a totally unfit craft for the furious sea that was thundering across the shoals. Kicking off his boots, Mayo and the other men, who begged him not to go aa It would be certain death, ran the dory overside. How the captain of the wrecking crew kept his fragile craft afloat, those who watched him from the Fitzpatrlck could nover understand. But he did keep her afloat and the set of the tide and the gale carried blm down toward the capalsed life-boat to which Sills clung now with the last of hla ebbing strength. • The life-saver said afterward that? he saw a dory thrown over the side of the Fitzpatrlck aa he drifted near her, but that a moment later the scud and the spindrift were driven so thick and caAseJoasly fcetota hla eyes that he aaw nothing, until suddenly out of 'the mist a tiny, bobWaaT boat loomed a dozen feet away. Then the occupant of this boat shot her skilfully xkmgilde the swamped life-boat and the exhausted snrtmsn toppled into her. Mayo, with the half-conacious life-saver tying Ump in the bottom of the dory, had kept hla word to his mates on the Fitzpatrlck. * Necessarily, the moot thrilling stories of the coast-watchers are those in which loss of life is entailed and therefore, In a measure, they are accounts of the failures of the men of the service. But they are stories of noble failures and behind some pf them lie tragedies other than those of nwath. Perhaps one of the greatest ct these is woven about the career of Captain David H. Atkins, on they were^irept inftyth* smothering foanv-* itt November JO, 1880, keeper of the Peaked KlU & • * • ' & . K-"' eX th* bar.

Th* alght of Novemoe* 80, 1880, was clear but windy. A heavy gale was piling the surf over the outer bar off the- Peaked Hill Bar station. Surfmenv Fisher and Kettey left the stations at four o'cloirk to make the eastward and westward patrol; Kelley started from the door fired. Aa he dfd so he heard the? slatting of sails ami the banging of blocka above* the wind. At the westward he saw the lights at a vessel close inshore. Shouting to Fisher to give the alarm, he ran down the beach, burning his Coston light. Keeper Atfctns glanced' at the surf and ordered out the boat. The men dragged it eastward1 until they were opposite the stranded vessel, which proved to be the sloop C. E. Trumbull of Rockport The crew manned1 the boat. The story of what took place out there mnder the darkness on Keeper Atkins' last errand of rescue is best told, perhaps, in the personal account of Isaiah Young, one of the survivor* The narrative of this man, fn his own words, 1» taken from the Life Saving Report of 1881. It reads: "When we launched1, the vessel was still some to the eastward. We went off In this manner to take advantage of the tide that was running to the eastward between the bar and the shore. It was low tide. Tha sea was smooths on the shore, but on the bar, where the vessel1 lay, it waa rough enough to he>dangerous. "We hauled up from the boat until the bow lapped on to her qanrter. Keeper Atkins called to them to jump in. "We landed four persons. Thts trip could not have consumed more than fifteen minutes "When we polled np again, after being thrown back, Taylor stood hr ike bow with thevrtoe ready to*heave.,.! cautioned Keeper ^klnnito have a oare lot the boom.

He adds, "These men were in' advance of the. guna." Aa guns do not ordinarily ahoot backward, the minister's cryptic explanation may be considered super* fluous. The incident is, perhaps, interesting chiefly because of the light it throws on Ruasia'jrofficial attitude toward the value of human life. It fits in aptly with the "reports or executions, imprlsonmenta and exiles which, coming from all parts of the czar's domains, keep the world fn; formed of'the progress of heartless oppression. It is not surprising that the empire Is rocked with discontent, that observers believe the government faces another costly revolution. A nation cannot place so low a value x>n the lives of HB subjects without ultimately reaping Its reward in blood and terror. Accidents in military maneuvers are not uncommon. They have occurred in the United States, and, doubtless, will continue to occur from time to time as long as military training is held a necessary part of every nation's list of obligations. It has remained for Russia, however, to aend soldiers "in advance of the guns" to be shot, and for a minister of the czar's government to announce the blunder to the world with aa much unconcern, apparently, as he might announce the departure of a detachment for patrol duty on the Persian frontier. be put In the front, and a door in one end.

Some years ago a publishing house was preparing to issue a new edition of the writings of Thoreau, writes Charles S. Olcott in Art and Progress. The head of the house and a member of his staff were in consultation about the method of illustration. It was agreed that the pictures must be true to nature; but how to get them was the problem. Artists who do book illustrating could not be expected to go intp the woods and make pictures which would In any way assist the text to reveal nature as Thoreau saw it. Photographs would be admirable, bnt where was the professional photographer to be found who would undertake to go Into Thoreau's country In sunshine and, rain, in summer, and winter, to catch all the phases of nature whieh Thoreau recorded in**fale. "Journal"? While the two men pondered, a caller sat In the outer office with a large portfolio under hie arm. Five years before'he had read Thoreau's "Journal," and had taken up his residence In Concord that he might visit the scenes there described. In' all seasons and all kinds of weather he had wandered through the woods and over the fields with his camera; passionately fond of nature, he was ho less devoted to art. To him, photography was a pastime—it was not his profession. For the pure love of nature and of art, and with no thought of pecuniary gain, he had accomplished the very feat which the two business men had thought BO difficult, and by a curious coincidence he appeared at the office to exhibit the result'of MARGIN OF PROFIT AND LOSS his work at the precise moment whsa Its desirability was being discusses. Record of the Coat of Production and ' •alter Will Determine Whether Htnt Art Paying. We carry upon the same land more than 5 0 per cent more cattle than we did before we had the S I L O S and whatever the correct theory of the matter may be, this solid hard fact is sufficient to satisfy us that very much more can be got out of the corn fed in the form of Silage than when fed dry in any manner which is practicable with us.

Music has long been notoriously a provoker of discord. Once in my news-hunting days I suffered the ignominy of a scoop on a choir rumpus, and I thereupon formed the habit of lending an anxious ear to rumors of trouble in choir lofts. The average ladder-like Te Deum, built up for the display of the soprano's vocal proweta, hat always struek me aa an unholy thing. I even believe that the horrors of highly embellished offertories have done much to tighten pursestrings and deaden generous Impulses, the presence behind the pulpit of a languid quartette praising God on behalf of the bored sinners in the pews hat always teemed' to me the profanest of anomalies. Nor hat long contemplation of vetted choirs in Episcopal churches shaken my belief that choir music should be an affair of tha congregation.—Meredith Nicholson, lit the Atlantic. ^ Mortgage Foreclosure Whereas default has been made in (be payment of the money secured by a mortgage dated the first day of November in the year one thousand eight hundred niotyeight, executed by George I.

Tex., says: ' * '", *A!*oer"ail my life I have bees troubled with constipation, tinC have tiled many remedies, all of which setmed to cause pain without givingmuch relief.- I finally tried D o Mllea' I^ixatl\e Tablets and found them excellent. Th»-ir action Is pleaatuit a n * mild, and their chocolate t&ata makes them easy to take. I am more than glad to recommend them." "Clean up the bowels and keep them clean," is the advice of all physicians, because they realize the danger resulting from habitual constipation. Do not delay too lonf, but begin proper curative measures. Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets a r e a new remedy for this old complaint, and a great improvement over the cathartics you have been using in the past. They taste like candy and work like a charm. A trial will convince you. Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets are sold by all druggists, at 25 cents a box containing 25 doses. If not found satisfactory after trial, return the box to your druggist and he will return your money.

A c ^ r e r in safesmajiehlp 1B offered to youn*, women, and the Chicago department stores are permitting some of their employes to attend it during what would otherwise be working hourey not only paying .their salaries for the who!*, time, but also paying their carfare kto: and from the school. This i s Hke the work which Is being dbne in technical schools In parts of Oclrmahy, where boys and girls have a certain number of hours a week free, from work and receive instruction in. the work at which they are employed. Employers In Germany, where the system, has been established for some time, co-operate Just as gladly as Chicago employers are said to^be co-operating in the present experiment. They are reported as finding it to their advantage to do so. It Is easy to see why a good many, especially of the larger employers of labor! should find It to their advantage here a s well as there. Take the case og>-, salesmanship, which is being taught In Chicago. Some large stores have s o strongly felt the need of instruction in it that they have established schools of salesmanship of their own where experts lecture and give advice to ambitious employes. In this way U is possible to develop better salesmen and saleswomen. * * « " » * ^ f " Perhaps no woman in Tennessee Is doing a more practical and helpful work than Miss Virginia Pearl Moore, who is at the bead of the Sehool Improvement work of the state, and who has recently been appointed by the Bureau of Education of the United States, organizer for Tennessee of girls' tomato clubs. For some time the United States government, through its bureau of education, has been encouraging boys to take an interest In agricultural activities by the organization of corn clubs, potato clubs, etc., and now the department, realizing that the girls must be kept on the farm,, a* well as the boys, Is organizing tomata dabs among the .girls all over the country. Miss Moore has been appointed state organizer of these clubs In Tennessee, and though she only received her appointment a few months ago, there are now about 1,000 Tennessee girls enrolled In the various tomato clubs of the state, sajs the Knoxville Journal and Tribune. The object of. the work is to aOqrd girls In the rural districts an Intelligent interest and an income, that they may be kept on the farms happy and satisfied instead of coming to the city where they join the anemic procession of mill and shop girls. > / , '•- I—z ^ What is perhaps the most remark able graveyard* in the United States adjoins the old Spanish church in the ancient Indian pueblo of Acogaa, N.

Uniontown, Lemont, Mt. Braddock, Conhellsville and Dunbar, Pa., were inundated. In Turtle Creek valley the damage is enormous and Bcores of families are homeless in the upper Youghiogheny valley. Railroad traffic through a great territory Is demoralized, especially so at Uniontown, where the tracks of two railways were torn from their foundations. ' Several towns are without railroad, mail, telephone and telegraph connections. Prom West Virginia cities no reports can be obtained because telegraph wires are down. Early morning hours brought at least oqe joy, and that was daylight. Camp fires, candles and oil lamps had shown the scene of devastation wrought by torrential rains in weird fashion, and all were thankful when darkness passed. Everywhere there was a picture of widespread desolation, a vivid reminder of the swirling, raging waters that had taken many human lives and caused much ruin.- The places and the number reported to have drowned at each are as follows: Uniontown, Pa., 15 drowned. Smock, Pa., located in Redstone valley, 14 reported drowned. Grindstone, Pa.,.. 12 rnipers missing, and reported drowned. At 'Lynri, Pa., 'two miners reported drowned. At" Wheeling, W.

Va., one drowned. Fairmont, W. Va., two drowned. Of this list of Gj fatalities it has been possible to account definitely for 23, Those who are known to have met death are at Uniontown,s Wheeling, Ellen wood, Fairmont andMonOn-! gahela. Admittedly, the death list will not be known for many days to come. A Jarge number of mines werg^ flooded In a short space of time. Workingmen were compelled to flee for their lives.

Scientific feeding of all the patients at the,, Michigan hospitals for the insane will be instituted as a result of the Joint board meeting. The plan is in accordance with Gov, Osborn's idea and-had Its Inception from the fact that the rate of maintenance at the state institutions is considered too high. The principal object to be accomplished from the new order will be a reduction in'meat eating. The board fixed the allowance for th* inmate* of the state hospitals for the coming year. This amount, which is regulated by the board, with the concurrence of Gov. Osborn, includes everything with the exception of clothing. The rates,for the ensuing year were placed as follows: Kalamazoo, 48 cents; Pontiae, 49 cents; Traverse City, 501 cents; Newberry, 50¼ c«ats.

"The recent decision of the .supreme court in the D. & M. railroad rate case is, a 'great victory for the state railroad commission," said Chairman Glasgow. "The decision settles the question whether the commission is vested with the power to fix rates.' In the particular case it was tfo't a question of making an entire new rate, in one sense, but rather to -lower rates. However, the opinion gives .us the right either to lower or raise freight rates, a power which we have alwayB supposed we had, yet were not certain. The decision will mean that several • fights now being |put up by railroads in attempts to prevent the commission from changing rates will be dropped, as already- manifested in communications received by us.

Must , M Be bvtrtooked—Koep Up l Records of Anlmalt. A well-selected breed of pure-bred cattle la a'source of much pleasure as well as profit, but to be successful details must not be overlooked. Many breeders and beginners are tod careless. T;hey keep no accurate records of births, neglect their cattle, fall to keep up the records, do not take proper care of their cattle in winter, and are often caught 'with a lot of surplus and unmerchantable bulls on hand and no buyers. Let me add that the only way to dispose of surplus stock is by judicious advertising in some good farm and stock paper, says a writer in an exchange. • Keep your herd In nice, healthy condition, so you will not be ashamed to show your stock to prospective buyers. Make a yearly exhibit at a few leading state and county fairs and present your stock in the most attractive form at home, as well as at the •fairs.- In describing your Bale stock to prospective A Pure-Bred Hereeford. buyers by mail or otherwlbe, never overestimate the merits of an animal. Make good every statement, and make every buyer a friend. It is cheaper to retain your old customers than to hunt new ones. There is no better way to restore or keep up the fertility of your soil than by keeping a herd of beef cattle, saving and applying the manure. A liberal supply of both grain and rough feed should be grown and consumed by the cattle. They should be kept well-bedded in the barns and all strawstacks converted into manure and returned to the soil. A well-bred animal will not consume as much food as a , scrub, and will always sell atfa profit, even if sent,to tne butcher. The best individuals will bring a fair profit to the owner when sold for breeding purposes. 1SAVE GRAIN IN FEEDING HOGS Two Troughs Conveniently Arranged , That When Corn Is Devoured J More Will Follow. • Make two troughs six or seven Inches wide and two and one-half feet long...

' < ! - , - ' - , ; • ' ' • • • ' • ' • & ' <By *• 1. W. ZMOSAM.) . Sows should ha retained for a aumber of years until their pla'ces can be filled with their equals. It is welt known that the progeny from mature parents, are superior Xp those descended from young progenitors not fully developed. Boars and sows for breeding should be kept in a good thrifty condition but not fat. The writer has always been troubled to keep hit breeding sows from becoming' too fat and consequently farrowing a small number of scrawny Pi*«u I oace took a large sow to fatten for one-half the pork. I did not know she was with pig and fed her all the corn .meal and wheat middlings she would eat. Imagine my astonishment and vexation when she had three little dwarfed pigs—not only smaller than pigs usually are when first farrowed, but emaciated. Sows for breeding should not be allowed to run with the fattening bogs fed on corn but kept in a pasture by themselves and given a plentiful supply of slop made of equal parts of wheat' shorts, corn meal and wheat bran. MoBt young sows will breed when three monthB old if "allowed to run with a boar, but eight or twelve months Is as young as is judicious to breed them. The pigs from large-bodied, old sows will be more in number and frequently double the size of pigs from young sows when farrowed, and this with the same feed and care and will frequently weigh 50 per cent more at a year old. Not only this, but it stunts or dwarfs the growth of such young things permanently and they never attain good size. GOOD FEED-RACK FOR SHEEP Grain Trough P(aoed Beneath Saves Chaff and Leaves, Most Nourishing Part of Peed. (By J. W. GOODWIN.) The rack Is made with a pole for the bottom rail and a piece of 2x6 inch scantling for the top rail. The crossbars are pieces riven from an old piece of timber. These crossbars are four feet long and about one and one-half Inches in Feed Rack for Sheep. diameter, shaved smooth with a drawing- knife. The holes in the top and bottom rails are made with an inch-auger. The crossbars are trimmed to fit the holes and then wedged to hold them The bottom rail is held in place against the side of the barn by two strips of heavy sheet-iron which baa been bent to fit around the pole. The top rail is secured by a piece of half-inch rope which passes over a pulley located Itf'a hole in the wall above the rack, a weight being attached to the outside end of rope, serving to always keep the rack against the wall. When the hay is put in, the rack is drawn down, and when filled is pushed back against the wall, holding the hay in place closely and kept in place by the weight The grain trough placed beneath and in front of the rack serves as a receptacle for the chaff and leaves of the hay—the best and most nourishing part of the feed whleh would otherwise be pulled under foot and lost as food. .-* ''•^ Raising tartytewlNr f. i i t W t o t * oojeet *J* rat******** lamb* ti <to' paodace a fine animal Of Coe4*4a**Ml .ntah^tud g*t~Wav toil it To dokiaotiojysi g y a i e g j ^nfrjggo, should be an ounsteadlag tag, good o r e a t * good awajgggtat, jaaftMaaL pomiarng aE the nwk ,<ro»4»*4*M he U t»«e-MMtf**-1r ^ ch*«ct4rtatte of the breed jetnt-to Market.

Just about the time of the ripening of the fruit of plums and cherries, the fruit grower notices "that trees have a ragged look and in many cases, they lose their natural green color and become a sickly yellow, If a leaf Is examined, It Is found that It Is thickly peppered with small, round spots or in many eases, Instead of their being a spot or dea^acea, there Is nothing left but a circular hole In the leaf. These are'the symptoms of leaf spot of plums and cherries or as it is sometimes called, th^e "shot-hole" fungus disease. The cause of this disease is a fungus and. each spot on .the leaf is a fungus colony. A parasitic fungus is a plant which gets its food from other plants, to other words, steals Its living. Fungi reproduce by minute bodies called spores and these serve the purpose of spreading the fungus. These spores are very small, light and are wafted about by small currents of air. When a spore falls upon a leaf and is given the right condition of moisture and temperature, it germinates, enters the leaf and causes the diseased area. After making extensive growth in the leaf, the fungus produces fruiting bodies—more spores to blow about and causes more leaf spots. Lose. The loss caused by this fungus is one which is often overlooked by the farmer, although it is usually a severe one. Since this attack, for the most part, comes after the present crop of fruit is picked, the loss will be noticed in the next year's crop for It is a well known fact that when the leaves of a tree are diseased, the food-producing power of that tree is cut down. Given a tree with practically every leaf affected by this leaf spot disease and you nave a tree with very small food-producing power. There will be very little food stored up in the tissues and there will, therefore, he a weak growth next Bprlng and a very poor crop of fruit. Control, To control this disease, one merely needs to apply a fungicide to the leaves and kill the spores or their iprouts before they have a chance tb enter the tissues.

There are, however, many farmers who do not give this manor the attention It deserves, and we are led to inquire whether they are fully convinced that it Is a matter of dollars and cents, or, on the other hand, one of carelessness and neglect. It le difficult to produce figures showing that there is a definite saving in the proper housing and care of farm equipment of the kind mentioned. It has been demonstrated, however, and is yearly being shown that such is the case- In almost any community examples can be found where the period of usefulness of machinery, well protected and cared for, is nearly double that on adjoining farms where It Is left to the ravages of the weather, with no system of keeping in order. As showing further the need of more careful attention to this phase of farm management the following figures are presented. Though some assumptions are made as to the period of usefulness of the machine In question they are based on the judgment of good authorities and may be verified by the experience of tho reader. By making a list of the implements and tools required on a 160- acre farm it will be found that their value will not be far from $1,000. Property housed and cared for the toolB referred to should have a period of usefulness of twelve years. On this assumption the yearly cost would be nearly $85. The annual or yearly cost in each case is found by dividing the first cost by the period of time in use. Taking eight years as the period of usefulness for unprotected equpment it will be found that the annual cost would be $120. Now an implement house to protect this machinery could be constructed at a cost of from $2 to $2.50. Using the latter figure and assuming that the house could be used for 16 years, a yearly cost of nearly $17 would be shown. Not taking into account interest on investment for the purpose in mind the total annual cost of protected machinery would be $S5 plus $17 equals $102, SB against an annual cost of $120 per y earf or unprotected. From these figures a saving of $18 per year will be shown. It should be remarked, too, that In a well-designed Implement house the work of caring for implements Is not Increased. It Is often more expedient to drive a machine under cover than to spend time In covering it with canvas or otherwise protecting It temporarily in the field, as must be done, for instance, with the binder. The Implement house should have ample floor space. Height Is not so essential, but space may often be economized by using a hoist of some description to lift and hang the lighter tools and implements off the floor. This would be desirable, particularly for Implements or tools used only for short periods of the year. The implement floor should also be open and free from posts if possible to facilitate moving the larger units. The doors should be wide enough to accommodate any implement and close enough together to permit taking machines out of the building without making it necessary to move a great number of others. It might also be said tn this connection that an effort should be made to group together those Implements in use at the same time. Using this scheme, the whole group may be taken out at once.

Where it's forced oww the end of a gas stove pipe, for instance? I know one really ought to have iron pipe connections made by a gas fitter, but sometimes one has to put up with rubber pipe as a temporary convenience." "I know," said the Little Wise Lady. 'Those things will happen sometimes, and the quickest way of heading off trouble is by using ordinary half-inch adhesive, such as comets in little roHs, and to wind ('strap' is a better word) several thicknesses of it around each end of the rubber hose, after it is forced into place on the stove or gaspipe. It holds the edges firm and prevents the tension which cracky the rubber. Of course, one might use rubber cement, but It's a fussy thing to tinker with, and there is an the bother of waiting for It to dry. Adhesive— take It all together—is one of the most useful things to have around the house of which I've any record. Try It next time your rubber hot water bottle springs a tiny leak—two or three layers of it—of course making sure that the rubber surface ia dry before putting it on.

A sweater is one of the necessities of the wardrobe. No other wrap can take its place. The dainty woman always prefers the creamy white ones, but often hesitates to buy because ot the seeming difficulty of cleaning them. The following method simplifies that process, so that no one need hesitate to buy one on that account. Woollen blankets may be cleaned in the same manner. A quarter of a bar of a good white soap is melted over the stove. To this is added about half a cup of ammonia. Enough hot water is run Into the pan or tub to cover the sweater. The soap and ammonia are stirred In, and then the sweater is placed In. With a stick on the top of a washboard this is stirred and turned until the dirt is out. Rinse In several waters, then lay on a slanting board to drain, but no not squeeze dry. There are several methods of drying. One Is to fasten a sheet flat over several clothes lines and spread the sweater on that in the sun. control measure reUed upon.

Unslacked lime one-half bushel, salt one peck, rice three pounds, Spanish whiting one-half pound, glue one pound. Slack the lime with boiling water and cover it during the operation to keep in the steam. Strain the liquid through a fine sieve and add the salt already dissolved in water. Boil the rice to a thin paste and stir it in very hot, then put in the whiting and the glue. Dissolve the glue by soaking several hours in cold water, then place in double boiler and heat slowly. Use agate or porcelain kettle. Iron will turn the glue dark. Now add five gallons of hot water to the mixture. Stir it well and let it stand two or three days covered from the dust.

The owners of a certain farm had better and eggs brought them dally by the daughter of the farm. A trained nurse had a case at the owper'a home. One day the farmer's wife and daughter were disqusaing this, when the little boy, who had been listening, said: "Rita, if I go with you tomorrow, will you show me the trained nurse?" The girl said she would, and the next day he accompanied her. The nurse came into the kitchen, said -a few wordB to him, and went out. He ran home at once, and arrived breathless.

Colonel Goethals is a fighter and he will fight a trust as readily as be will fight a labor union. Whole cargoes of tainted meat have been shipped back by the commissary, because the beef trusts' goods were not up to sample. Thousands of square yards of screening were condemned and left unpaid for, as soon as it was discovered that the copper trust had put In so much Iron that they were rapidly falling to pieces with rust. Colonel Ooethals is determined that no contractors shall become rich by supplying the Panama canal with rotten food and shoddy material, as so many did in the days ot the De Lesseps company.

Osborne recently inspected the State Sanatorium at Howell and pronounced conditions there filthy, unsanitary and a disgrace to the state. This evidently has gotten on t h e c o m a of the board of control as they have been replying to bis charges through the columns of the newspapers. They do not deny that the above conditions exist, but claim they are unavoidable on account of insuffic ient money appropriations by the legislature, the scarcity of help and the largj number of patients cared for. They also seem to be of the opinion that the Governor should have informed the Sanatorium head of his intended visit. Gov. Osborne has replied to this by saying that it costs the state more to run it than any of its other institutions and they have only 81 patients,while at Coldwater and other state institutions where they have over 1,000- inmates no such conditions exist. To the best of our knowledge this is the first time tbe conditions at the Sanatorium have been critized and it might not be a bad idea for the board to drop in once in a while sort of unexpected like the Governor did.

No one will ever help you as yon help yourself, for no one is beartilly interested in your affaire.

Men who have acquired fame have never been thrust into popularity by puffs begged or paid for, or given in friendly spirit. They\have outstretched their own bands and touched the public heart. Men who win, love their own wooing and I never knew a man to fall as signaHy as one who induced his grandmother to speak a word for him. Whether you work for fame for love, for money, or for anything else, work with your own hands and heart and brain. Say, "I will," and some day yon will conquer.

The Shantung coat is seen in double- breasted form fastened with large pearl buttons and having a wide collar of self-colored Shantung with rovers faced with blue or green or rose. For babies there are sweet little Shantung coats hung on a square yoke with full sleeves pleated into embroidered bands to form a cuff, a narrow band of the same embroidery, either selfcolored or a contrasting shade, going round the neck and down one side of the front. Another wee coat has a round collar edged with braid in a herringbone design, the collar and cuffs and the hem of the skirt being sewn with French knots. As to playing things, nothing could well be prettier than a little frock of smocked Shantung—for Bmocking Is never out of fashion—and with this may be worn a Bweet wee hood to match with revers turned back from the face and sewn with blue forgetme- nots.

MORE PRACTICAL THINGS TO « TAUGHT IN FUTURE, Agriculture Will Be Required Study in Every Prtrnsry School District In the State of Michigan. Agriculture becames a required Study in every primary school district in Michigan this year, according to the new course of study which has been outlined by Superintendent of Public Instruction Luther L. Wright. The legislature of 1911 gave to the superintendent the power of definitely outlining the course of study which must he followed in every district school in the state. Heretofore the course of study was optional with each district board, the superintendent's power toeing onljj advisory, Mr. Wright takes advantage of the opportunity given him by the new law and will require a course of agriculture to be introduced in every district school. On account of the lack o.f preparation in this subject on the part of teachers, Supt. Wright only requires one-half year of intensive studyy with a text book, this to be given In the eighth grade. In addition to this Intensive study, a course in nature study, beginning with the third grade and advancing through school and home gardening, crop planting and allied subjects is recommended as most desirable supplementary work. First Step In Wide Reform. The prescribed course in agriculture is simply the first step toward reforming the rural schools in the state and making them reflect the life which surrounds them rather than weakly imitating the city schoof. Supt. Wright is earnestly advocating the ruralizing of the country schools; that Is, giving the boys and girls of the farming districts an insight into the problems which are in close relation to their lives, arousing an iutereBt. in scientific 'agriculture, making their training not only of cultural but of practical value as well. As fast as it is practical the work in t agriculture will be extended to the other grades. The new course of study does not stop with the introduction of agriculture, important as that step is, but it emphasizes throughout its scope the desirability tor making the work ot the rural school more practical. In arithmetic, for example, the^ problems are to deal with potatoes/ grain, butter, eggs, farm fields, productiveness of cows and hens. They are not to deal with hypothetical cases which are not in range of the experience of a boy or girl on the farm.' and probubly never will be, but they will be such problems in farm accounting that their fathers and mothers are called upon constantly to consider, Learn Practical Things, The geography in the new course of study will begin at home, and the child will be taught something about his own township, county and state before he has to master the list of European capitals and to bound the various Asiatic empires. The problems of food production and their relation to people is of more Importance in the present-day conception of geography than drawing of weird maps and the memorizing of the names of various rivers end mountain ranges. Instead of learning the names of all the bones in the body and being able to locate the various organs and describe their functions, the child is to leftrn how to take care of his teeth, skin, eyes, ears and other parts of his body, how to revive a person who is nearly drowned; what to do in case a person is burned or suffers a broken bone or a severed artery. The menace of riles and mosquitoes and other similar questions of hygiene and sanitation will supersede the technical physiology which has been taught in the country schools. Teach Correct Speaking. Reading In the new course of study Is emphasized as probably the most important subject in the schools. Teachers are Instructed to train the chidrren to read for the thought rather than for expression, so silent rather than aloud reading is recommended. The plan is for the child to read, silently from the printed page, close his book and then stand before the class and tell what he has read. In this way the dhlld not only learns to read quickly and for the thought, but he acquires the desirable ability to stand on his feet, face other people and use the English language. He learns to speak correctly, as criticism is an important part, of the work. The idea is that habits of correct speech are infinitely more valuable^ to the boy or girl than a knowledge of rules of grammar. J.

Don't be a silly ass!" "Yes, sir!"—very softly, and with a deep sigh as he dropped back. By Jove, he looked as cheerful as a jolly tombstone! "What the deuce—" I began. "Noth—nothing, sir!"—hastily—"I was just a-tbinklng of the—h'm—may I say scrimmage, sir?" 1 waited till I bad taken from his hand the second glass of ice-water and swallowed it, thinking maybe i would get hold of it—the dashed Idea, 1 mean. I batted at him perplexedly. "What was that? Scrimmage? 1 don't remember hearing anything— what's that?" And I reached for another glass. "Pardon, sir—'* Jenkins' eye shitted unhappily; "but may I ask, sir, what is the last thing you do remember?" "Eh?" I sat up a bit stralghter, rubbing my head and devilish annoyed at being made to try to think at all. Then I remembered: We were in a Jolly blue aeroplane drawn by golden hummingbirds and Bhe was just telling me— no, dash it, that was a dream—Just a dashed dream! I groaned, droppingij my head upon my knees. "Why, the last thing 1 remember was the punch —punch—" "Punch—yea, sir!" And Jenkins sighed. "Your punch to put out the light," I finished. Then 1 looked at htm, startled. "Oh, I say, now, it wasn't burglars, was it?" You see, 1 thought at once of Foxy Grandpa and my darling's pajamas. "Not precisely, sir." Jenkins hesitated; then moved a little nearer. "1 —I hope you'll pardon me, Mr. Lightnut, sir; but I can't help a feeling that you ought to know everything before —h'm—I was going to say, sir, before you see the family. I hope you'll pardon me, sir!"—he heaved desperately—" I mean about all that happened la/at night." I stared. "Oh, I say, Jenkins," 1 said, with an anxious thought, "you didn't—er—you know—1 mean you and Wilkes didn't drink the rest of the punch—after he took It away, you know—eh?" "Me?" Jenkins' hand clutched the heavy brass curve at the foot of the bed. "No, sir!"—and he added sadly: "Besides, sir, there wasn't any rest of It! Mr, Wil—I mean Wilkes, was a-commenting on it. That was how 1 come to find I didn't have any more of the blank pledges. So I just walked across the park to get some extra ones I had given the gardener, and he said 1 could have 'em all, if I'd just let him get a little sleep; and he chucked 'em all out of his window. Seemed irritated like because I woke him up. And then, sir, I don't know whether it was because of the splashing of the fountains, but I had an idea." "That's nothing," I said contemptuously. "I often do at night when 1 hear water splashing. I often get up and get something." Jenkins' face sobered. "1 know It, sir—pardon, sir, I mean I frequently know you have—h'm—know by the glasses—you understand, sir!" Then he went on: "The Idea that came to me was a great liberty—I know that, sir, and I'm sorry—but I guess I was thinking that about the end justifies— you know it, sir?" I didn't know, but I did with he would make an end! "The library windows was open on the loggia, sir, and when I looked is, I didn't see anybody and I thought—" Jenkins coughed and looked devilish rattled—"thought I would just slip in and lay. a few of the temperance pledgee between the papers the judge had been working on." Jenkins red' dened, looking at me in an appealing way. "Jovei" I ejaculated, staring. "Oh, I gay, ndwl" "Yea, str,"—faintly—MI knew how you would feel—1 ain't excusing myself, sir; and when I heard your voice 1 tried to get out, but there wasn't time, so I—" Jenkins touched hit handa In front, then behind him, and shifted distressfully, "I—I hid behind the alcove curtains—h'm—and just then—** "Here!" I broke in, "Watt, daah it! Whose voice did you hear?" Jenkins' eyes ducked. "Tours, air," he aald faintly. "And then you came in." 1 stared, trying to take it in Couldn't chirp a word, don't you know, lor to think I had taken to sleepwalking— and here!

It would be scarlet red when I got warm. My face was a sight. It looked very unpleasant, and it felt uncomfortable. My faoe was something awful; it just kept me in agony all the time. Some said it was tetter, and some said It was that awful eczema, but I rather think it was tetter. I had been troubled with it for about two years and tried many remedies, but got no relief until I used Cuticura Soap and Ointment. "When I would wash my face with the Cuticura Soap and apply the Cuticura Ointment it would cool my skin and draw great big drops of matter; out of the Bkin.

May Be Tinted WW* •Ut Injuring Its Quatty if Handle In Right Way. So p i t t is th« possibility of scaldlug the fowl improperly that dealer* in some localities show an Inclination to demand dry plucked fowls. As a means of overcoming this difficulty, C. K. Graham of Connecticut, who has spent a good deal of time in studying the subject, offers these suggestions: Aay aged bird may be scalded without seriously Injuring its quality if it 1s properly handled; but owing to the large number of poorly dressed scalded fowls, the marketmen place a premium of from 1 to 2 cents a pound on dry plucked stock. Boiling water may be used, but care must be taken not to leave young birds In the water too long, or the skin will cook, while, with old fowls a little more time may not do any harm. The head and shanks should be kept out of the water, as the scalding will discolor them and make them unsightly. Immediately after the bird Is taken from the scalding water it should be dipped into cold water to stop the cook, and, as poultrymen say, to "plump the bird." The bird should then be hung as for dry plucking, as no bird plucked on the lap or the table will have so good an appearance. If a scalded bird le exuosed to a draught when being plucked or when cooling, the skin is likely to harden and become rough. It is because of these possibilities that dry plucking is recommended, as the condition of the skin to a great extent accounts for the high or low returns received. It la of Speolal Manufacture and Combines Strtngth, Flexibility and Lightness. ! The rope used by Alpine climbers Is of special manufacture, combining as tar a* possible the differing quali- | tieB of- strength,' flexibility and lightness. ' Three Qualities are in general ; use, being made from Sisal, Italia* | and Manilla hemps respectively, and occasionally, When cost is not considered, of silk. The latter, though vary light and strong, is not so durable as the others. That which finds most favor among British mountaineers to known as Buckingham's Alpine rope; it is made of the best Manilla hemp. In the year 1864, Mr. McLelsh recalls, a committee of the Alpine club made tests upon a number of ropes suitable for mountaineering. Of the two that were approved one waa made of Italian hemp and the other of Manilla. They both had a breaking strain of two tons and sustained the weight of a twelve Btone man after falling from a height of ten feet. Non-mountaineers have sometimes considered this insufficient, but It Is highly problematical whether the human anatomy could survive the sudden compression of a thin rope arising from any greater fall.—Fry's Magazine.

It was natural to signalize the annual ripening and gathering of the fruits of the earth by some sort of rejoicing, and It was natural, too, that the manifestation of renewed life in the spring should re* ceive similar recognition. These autumn and spring festivals may be called the natural holidays. Once holidays were started, it is not strange that they grew in number, says the Cincinnati Enquirer. It is for most a world of toil and sweat and grime that we live In, and an occasional break accompanied by a little recreation and change of mental and physical environment, Is necessary and salutary. Consequently all sorts of occasions and events were availed of to make holidays. Present education, though very far from presenting an " unmpromislng aspect, shows glaring inefficiencies that should be looked at squarely so that they, may be removed. For instance, a very large proportion of the public school teachers in the country are minors, and less than half of them have had any special or adequate preparation for teaching; In several states from 20 to 30 per cent, of them every year are beginners; and in the beot states the average length of service Is less than four years. The average wage' of all public school teachers In the United States, Including the teachers In all our cities is $1.00 a day for the working days of the whole year— less than $500 per annum; or less than $10 a week, says the World's tWork. The average pa? in eleven •states is less than $400; in eight states, It is less than $300; in two ^states, less jjian jjfgj. ^ Eggs have been hatched in Egyptjn ovens for hundreds of years. incub3P tors that hold from 30,000 to 60,000 eggs are still in existence, where for •generations about 70 per cent, of each heating have been successfully hatched.

The committee, headed by Senator Root, called on tbe president at the White House. Mr. Taft's speech of acceptance was carefully prepared for use as a campaign document. It was in part as follows: \ Mr. Root and Gentlement of the Notification Committee: I accept the nomination which you tender. I do so with profound gratitude to the Republican party, which has thus honored me twice. I accept it as an approval 'of what I have done under its mandate, and as an expression of confidence that in a second administration I will serve the public Well. * The issue presented to the convention, over which your chairman presided with euch a just and even hand, made a crisis in the party's life. A faction sought to force the party to violate a valuable and timehonored national tradition by entrusting the power of the presidency for more than two terms to one man, and that man, one whose recently avowed political views would have committed the party to radical proposals involving dangerous changes in our present constitutional form of representative government and our independent judiciary. Achievements of the Party. This occasion is appropriate for the expression of profound gratitude at Ihe victory for the right which was won at Chicago. By that victory, the Republican party was saved for future usefulness. It has been tbe party1 thjrough.'w'htcb substantially all the progress and development in oar country's history in the last fifty yiMflri' |sfj; bejn finally effected. It cafrled the country through the war which saved the Union, and through the greenback and silver* crazes to a sound gold basis,, which saved the country's honor and credit. It'fought the Sj)ajjlsh wor g£d successfully solved the new problems of our Island possessions. It met the Incidental evils of the enormous trade expansion and extended combinations of capital from 1807 until now by a successful crusade against the attempt,of concentrated wealth to control the country's politics and its trade. It enacted regulatory legislation to make the railroads the eervants and not the masters of the people. It has enforced the an_tl-trust laws, until those who were not content wltn anything but monopolistic control of variousbranches of Industry are now acquiescent In any plan which shall give them scope for legitimate expansion and assure them Immunity from reckless prosecution. The list of legislative enactments for the uplifting of those of our people suffering a disadvantage in their social and economic relation to others enacted by the Republican party In this and previous administrations Is a long one, and shows the party sensitive to the needs of the people under the new view of governmental responsibility. Public Mind Inflamed. After^ mentioning In «ome detail these enactments under the Republican administrations, Mr. Taft continued: In the work of rousing the people to the danger that threatened our civilization from the abuses of concentrated wealth and the power it was likely to exercise, the public imagination was wrought upon and a reign of sensational journalism and unjust and unprincipled muckraking has followed, In which much injustice has been done to honest men. Demagogues have seized the opportunity further to inflame the public mind and have sought to turn tbe peculiar con* ditions to their advantage. We are living in an age in which by exaggeration of the defects of our present condition, by false charges of responsibility for it against individuals and classes, by holding up to tbe feverish Imagination of the less fortunate and the discontented the possibilities of a millennium, a condition of popular unrest has been produced. New parties are being formed, with the proposed purpose of satisfying this unrest by promising a panacea. In so far as Inequality of condition can be lessened and equality of opportunity can be promoted by improvement of our educational system, the betterment of the lews to insure the quick administration of justice, and by the prevention of the acquisition of privilege without just compensation, In so far as the adoption of the legislation above recited and laws of a similar character may aid the less fortunate In their struggle with the hardships of life, all are In sympathy with a continued effort to remedy injustice and to aid tbe weak, and I ven* tore to say that there is no national administration In which more real steps of such 'progress bars been tabfar as the propaganda for tbe satisfaction of unrest 'involve**' the promise J of a miiltnnluoV a'-contusion is which the rich are to be made reasonably poor and the poor reasonably rich by <fiejlaw, we are chasing a phantom; we are holding out to those whose unrest we fear a prospect and a dream, a vision of the Impossible. Looks Like SoctiHim. l Ip the ultimate analysis, I fear, the equal opportunity which those seek who proclaim the coming of so-called social justice involves a forced division of property, and that means «oclaHstn. In the abuses of the last two decades it is true that ill-gotten wealth has been concentrated In some undeserving hands, and that if it were possible to redistribute it on any equitable principle to those from whom It was taken without adequate or proper compensation it would be a good r£ suit to bring about. But' this is Obviously impossible and impracticable. All that can be done 1B to treat this aB one incidental evil of a great expansive movement in the material progress of the world and to make sure that there will be no recurrence of such evil. In tETs regard we have made great progress and reform, as in respect to secret rebates In railways, the improper conferring of public franchises, and the immunity of monopolizing trusts and combinations. The misfortunes of ordinary business, the division of the estates of wealthy men at their death, the chances of speculation which undue good fortune seems often to stimulate, operating as causes through a generation, will do much to divide up such large fortunes. It is far better to await the elimination of this evil by natural causes than to attempt what would soon take on the aspect of confiscation or to abolish the principle and institution of private property and to change to socialism. Socialism involves the taking away of the motive for acquisition, saving, ebergy, and enterprise, and a futile attempt by committees to apportion the rewardB due for productive labor. It means stagnation and retrogression. It destroys the mainspring of human action that has carried the world on and upward for 2,000 years. Opponents Offer No Remedy. I do not say that the two gentlemen who now lead, one the Demo cratic party and the other the forme* Kepubltcans who have left their, party, In their attacks upon existing conditions, and in their attempt to satisfy the popular unrest by promises of remedies, arg consciously embracing socialism. The truth is (hat they do not offer any definite legislation or policy by which the happy conditions they promise are to be brought/about, but if their promises mean anything, they lead directly toward **bi. appropriation of what belotgB to one man, to another. The truth is, my friends, both those who have loft the Republican party yj^cter the inspiration of their present leader, and our old opponents, the Democrats, under their candidate, are going in a direction they do not definitely know, toward an end they can not definitely describe, with but one chief and clear object, and that is of acquiring power for their party by popular support through the promise of a change for the better. What they clamor for is a change. They ask for a change in government so that the government may be restored to the people, as If this had not been a people's government since the beginning of the constitution. I have the fullest sympathy with every reform in governmental and election machinery which shall facilitate the expression of the popular will as the short ballot and the reduction In elective offices to make it possible. But these gentlemen propose to reform the government, whose present defects, if any, are due to the failure of the people to devote as much time as is necessary to their political duties, by requiring a political activity by tbe people three tjmes that which thus far the people have been willing to assume; and thus they propose remedies which, instead of exciting the people to further interest and activity in the government, .will tire them into such an indifference as still further to remand control of public affairs to a mindrity. Hostility, to Judiciary. Instead of giving us the benefit of any specific remedies for the hardships and evils of society they point out, they follow their urgent appeals for closer association of the people in legislation by an attempt to cultivate the hostility of the people to tbe courts and to represent that they are in some form upholding injustice and are obstructing the popular will. Attempts are made to take away all those safeguards for maintaining tbe Independence of the judiciary which are so carefully framed in our constitution. These attempts find expression in the policy, on the one hand, of the recall of Judges, a system under which a judge whose decision In one case may temporarily displease tbe electorate is to be deprived at once of his office by a popular vote, a pernicious system embodied 1n the Arizona constitution and which the Democrats of the house and senate refused to condemn as the initial policy of a new state. Tbe same spirit manifested Itself in the vote by Demo* cratic senators pn the proposition^ first, to abolish the commerce court> and, second, to abolish Judges by mere act of repeal, although, under the oqnstitution their terms are for life, on no ground except that they did not tike some of the court's recent decisions. Another form of hostility to tbe judiciary is shown in tbe grotesque proposition by tbe loader of former Republicans wbo have left their party, cialon On a point of constitutional law, having been rendered by the* highest court capable of rendering it, shall then be submitted to popular vote to determine whether it .ought to be sustained. Again, the Democratic party In cpngress and convention'shows its desire to weaken the courts by forbidding the. use of the writ of injunction to protect a lawful business against the destructive effect of a secondary boycott, and by interposing a Jury in contempt proceedings brought t6 enforce' its order and decrees." These provisions are really class legislation designed to secure immunity for lawlessness in labor disputes on the part of the laborers, but operating much more widely to paralyze the arm of the court In cases which do not involve labor disputes at all. The hostility to the judiciary and the mea» ures to take away its power and its Independence constitute the chief defl* nite policy that can be fairly attribute ed to that class of statesmen and re formers whose absorption and control the Republican party escaped at Chicago and the Democratic party yielded to at Baltimore. Such Innovations Rejected. The Republican party, Mr. Taft continued, stands for none of these innovations. It refuses to make changes simply for the purpose of making a change, and cultivating popular hope that in the change something beneficial, undefined, will take place. The Republican party believes in progress along the lines upon which we have attained progress already. The president then devoted some time to a review of what has been accomplished during his administration, including a warm defense of the Payne tariff bill. In conclusion he said: I can not think that the American people, after the scrutiny and education of a three-months' campaign, during which they will be able to see through the fog of misrepresentation and demagoguery, will fall to recognize that the two great issues which are here presented to them are. first, whether we shall retain, on a sound and permanent basis, our popular constitutional representative form of government, with the independence of the Judiciary as a necessary key to the preservation of those liberties that are the Inheritance of 1,000 years, and, second, whether we shall welcome prosperity which is just at our door by maintaining our present economic business basis and by the encouragement of business expansion and progress through legitimate use of capital. Appeal to All Conservatives. I know that In this wide country there are many who call themselves Democrats, who view, with the same aversion that we Republicans do, the radical propositions of change In our form of government that are recklessly advanced to satisfy what Is supposed to be popular clamor. They are men who revere the constitution and the institutions of their government with all the love and respect that we could possibly have, men who deprecate disturbance in business conditions, and are yearning for that quiet from demagogic agitation which is essential to the enjoyment by the whole people of the great prosperity which the good crops and the present conditions ought to bring to ui. To them I appeal, as to all Republicans, to Join us in an earnest effort to avert the political and economic revolution and business paralysis which Republican defeat will bring about Such misfortune will fall most heavily on the wage earner, May we not hope that he will see what his real interest is, understand the shallowness of attacks upon existing institutions and deceitful promises of undefined benefits by undefined changes? May we not hope that the great majority of voters will be able to distinguish between the substance of performance and the fustian of promise; that they may be able to see that those who would deliberately stir up discontent and create hostility toward those who are conducting legitimate business enterprises, and who represent the business progress of the country, are Bowing dragons' teeth? Who • are the people? They are not alone the unfortunate and the weak; they are the weak and the strong, the poor and the rich, and the many who are neither, the wage earner and the capitalist, the farmer and the professional man, the merchant and the manufacturer, the storekeeper and the clerk, tbe railroad manager and the employe —they all make up the people and they all contribute to the running of the government, and they have not any of them given into the hands of anyone the mandate to speak for them as peculiarly the people's representative. Especially does not he represent them who, assuming that the people are the unfortunate and discontented, would stir them up against the remainder of those whose government alike this is. In other campaigns be* fore this, the American people have been confused and misled and diverted from tbe truth and from a clear per* ceptlon of their welfare by specious appeals to their prejudices and -their misunderstanding, but the clarifying; NEW YORK POLICE - 1 ^ - ^ - - *sfciteu«iiM JJC:£»> LlsTU^i * E C K * t f ^ t t f t t t T S t ) * « * T H E MURDER OF ROSENTHAL,, THE GAMBLER. > « i f ' \ * .

The first serious case in which Becker was concerned was the shoot, ing dead of a youuj; plumber's helper, John Fay, wtio was killed in a burglar chase. Becker and another policeman were suspended following an investigation, but were later reinstated. Becker was placed in charge of the so-called strong arm squad on June 30, 1911. Since that time he has been much in the public eye, making many spectacular raids. Last March a man was killed by a bullet Qred during one of his raids. Becker was relieved from charge of the Bquad for a time, but was later reassigned to ltwi. >/• During the year he was in charge of the strong arm squad Becker raadB more than 75 raids, including the attack on Rosenthal's gambling place on April, 1$. v: l ., Herford Marshall, cbtfflsel for "Jack Sullivan'* (Jacob Reich), the .gobetween between Lieut.

Sullivaui he said, would not talk to the police or the district attorney. The indictment and arrest of Police Lieutenant Charles A.

Baker in the Tombs' for the murder of Herman Rosenthal the New York gambler, Rose said that Becker had told him that $2,400,000 was the yearly police graft from gambling, disorderly houses and other forms of blackmail. Rose swore that Becker hnd confided to him the loot was divided among four police officials; Becker himself, the policemen of higher rank and a minor official who does not wear a uniform, "Jack," said Becker, "the rakeoff is so good that my own share was $600,000 and the others got the same." Becker's collector having handled a good deal of the money himself, does not think that Becker or any individual pocketed $600,000 In any one year, but that Becker and his connections were distributing agents, and. .that the $§00,000 each, received was subdivided. There is Just one chance for Uecker to save himself. The district attorney may conclude to deal leniently with the lieutenant if he can and will tell the truth about who else received the profits of blackmail. i . i . . . . . .

The ease or difficulty experienced in eradicating Canada thistles depends on the kind of soil and the character of'the crops In the rotation. As they propagate readily by root-stalks which run under the ground, they spread more rapidly and are much more difficult to eradicate in loose, open, porous soils than In heavy clays. Grain crops are more favorable for their continuance than cultivated crops such as corn, beans, roots, etc., providing the latter are properly cared for. I. Canada thistles can be completely eradicated in a Blngle season by thorough summer fallowing, but this la an expensive system and should not be employed unless an entire field has been taken possession of so aa to make it Impossible to grow a crop. II, The best method is to follow with two cultivated crops in succession, as corn after corn, with manure applied between the two crops if possible. Cultivate thoroughly, using thistle sweeps on the cultivator; these are cultivator points with wings and are from eight to ten inches wide; they can be attached to almost any cultivator with sweeps after the corn Is too big for a two-horse rig. Check row corn if possible so as to cultivate both ways. If thistles are in patches wbfch"are not too numerous, give these spots more frequent cultivation than the balance of the field. The secret of success consists in keeping the tklstles underground; this done, they must smother. If two cultivated crops cannot be grown in succession and if the thistles are not all killed the first year, sow the clean portions of the field to grain and seed to clover or grass. New Queen of the Dairy World 30CBB ...With a record of 1,058.34 pounds of butterfat produced In 365 days, Banostine Belle DeKol, a five-year-old Hoistem Friesian cow owned by Dan Dunnick eV Bro., Ohio, becomes, the new ,';Queen of the Dairy World." This wonderful cow produced during the year 27,404.4 pounds of milk, testing 3.86 per cent, fat If made Into butter, her fat production would equal 1,822.9 pounds of butter or over 8¼ pounds' per day for 865 days.

Then put a hoed crop on the thistle patches the second year, unless they are too numerous and scattered. If mangolds or stock beets or turnips or rutabagas are planted on these patches and if the thistles are killed by August first, clover or grass seed can be sown among the roots and covered lightly with a spike tooth drag. The following year the field will all be seeded. This succeeded admirably with us in eradicating quack grass. III. If Canada thistles are scattered in grain or pasture crops and are not too numerous, they can be subdued by the use of the thistle spud which can be procured of any hardware dealer, though he may not keep them in stock. Mark the patches in some way or other and then cut the thistles off below the ground every ten days or so after they start in the spring. This .tool and the method Just described are satisfactory where the thistles are not too numerous, as where new patches are starting In pasture, grain crops, along fences, in lanes, wpodlots, etc. IV. I have seen Canada thistles completely destroyed by cutting them close to the ground with a scythe Just as the blossoms opened, but this probably will not occur except where followed by dry weather and Adverse growing conditions. It is better not to reply upon this method. Success can only be obtained in combatting Canada thistles by follow* ing up the methods of eradication patiently and perseverlngly.

The estimates siren are only based on what la known. In the western and northern regions, which have been little explored, there may he yast deposits of which nothing whatever U known at present. The officials of the department estimate that of bituminous coal there is in Canada 73½ billion tons; of anthracite 461' million tons; sub-bituminous and lignite over 100 billion tons. The Quantity of coal now annually mined in Canada is about 12 million tons. With an estimated quantity of unmixed good coal, of 74 billion tons, it would require 6,166 years to exhaust the supply. If the inferior grades were included, supply would last for 14,575 years. Of course the coal demands of Canada will keep on Increasing, but it will be a good many years before the quantity of Canadian coal mined will equal present output of the United States mines. Their annual output is about 500,000,000 tons. At that rate it would take only 145 years* to exhaust the estimated Canadian supply of good coal, and about 350 years to get to the end of the .total supply. And with the increasing population, made up of about four hundred thousand persons a year (and it looks now as if this number would be reached this year), one hundred and seventy-five thousand the opening up of this rich field of agriculture, and it is a high class of agriculture, carried on by the use of brains, and, where energy has not been endowed, it has become in that splendid air a case of inoculated energy. The rapid advancement of railways makes the situation easy. Today one may be located thirty miles from one of the many branches of the different systems. A year from now, the whistle of the locomotive and the long train of cars may pass the farm, the elevator is but a short drive from the home, a splendid market is established, and all the advantages of an old settled community are at hand. The prospects this year from an agricultural standpoint are exceedingly bright, and, relieved of untoward conditions, the farmer is already counting his bank roll, planning for more extensive operations for next year, and figuring on paying out for his farm. He is calculating what the Increased value of his holdings, as a result of a successful crop, will add to his asset*. Already some fields of wheat have been harvested, barley has bean cut, and the yield is above his expectation. In fact, the feeling at the time of writing is that never in the history of any) country on #Vt continent has there been such a prospect of a large average crop, all over the three central provinces of Canada, as will be harvest- Th© Dairy Helps the Farmer In Western Canada. lb; chickens, 12%c: No 2 hens 120A" l-?e: hens, }2<fr ns, »©10c; old roosteV*, te>l6<?r^wok*. 14c; young ducks. 14© 16c; geese.

The agricultural districts of Canada have now become so well known throughout the world, and the vacant area of splendid land is still so great that it may be expected that the numbers mentioned will increase from year to year, and it will not be many years before the immigration figures will reach the million mark. It may be asked what is there to warrant this large immigration? With millions of acres of land, capable of producing twenty-five to forty bushels of wheat to the acre; or, If in oats, from forty to ninety, and even as high as a hundred bushels per acre, or the same splendid yields of flax or barley, there is ample inducement to attract these hundreds of thousands who are filling the present agricultural settlements and pushing forward into the newer settlements year by year, and leave room still for the hundreds of thousands who will follow. There remains not only the agricultural wealth of the country, but there are also the Social advantages, the home-making privileges, apart altogether from the financial opportunities, there is the life and the energy born from the knowledge that the settler is more than a unit in the upbuilding, in the making of a country that will soon rank amongst the first in the nations of the world. There is no desire on the part of the writer to dwell upon the success that has followed the American' settler in the Provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan- and Alberta and the coast Province of British Columbia, or to speak of the thousandt of individuals whose hundreds of dollars have made them thousands, but attention must be paid to the fact that these people have done well. They are followed by their families and their friends, who also are doing welt Where, a few years ago, seemingly only months ago, there was nothing but the open prairie, tor if we speak of the more central portions of* these 'provinces, the park districts, there are today well tilled and cultivated farms, large farms, too, and the hsrds of cattie.

The railroads are adding to their already large mileage and have got ready for handling the crop thousands of box cars. The government agents and the railways are making arrangements for from fifty to sixty thousand extra farm hands in order that the crop may be successfully and quickly harvested, business men are laying in larger stocks than usual, real estate men are active, preparing for the rush of business that Is sure to follow, and everywhere there is the note of optimism, which seems to be perfectly Justifiable. There is, as has been said, a vast area of the country still open for settlement and homesteadlng lying in the center north. Speaking of this part a writer, who made the trip when the crop was !:i Its green stage, said: "Just nc -.', the whole country is a beautiful s.';,iit, as it presents Itself in full dre3s of living green, varied in shade, many places elegantly fringed and Interspersed with pleattngs of shrubbery and patches of sweet scented flowers in,rose, yellow, white, pink, scarlet, cardinal and purple. In traveling over the virgin soil, I have seen some of the most charming rolling prairies, sloping hills, deep ravines, mirrored lakes, artistic flower fields, and natural parks that one could wish to behold, and all placed there without the aid of man. The land in general is heavily matted with grass, mixed with retches and pea vines, nearly tip to the knee, and many millions of acres of which are going to waste while beef, pork and mutton are soaring at prices heretofore unknown. The comparatively small acreage under cultivation reminds one of a few small garden patches. "When we consider the estimated crop, of 300,000,000 bushels of whsst for 1912, to be produced on thess western prairies from thess garden pstches, some faint ides, can be formed by aa imaginative mind as to the immense possibilities sad rich heritage of a glorious western Canada;* The estimate of the wheat crop, *s made by the writer quoted, is excessive, but with even 250 million bushels, there will be a great deal of satisfaction on the part of the settlers.

It was Pinokney's first game this year while Stockbridge has been averaging two or three games a week since the season started. Ledwidge started on the slab for Pinckney bat was in poor form from lack of practise, having no coutrol and being hit freely. His support was also far from perfect. He was relieved by Bravender in the fifth but "before this gentleman could get settled Stockbridge • poshed across eight more counters. This ended their scoring as they were unable to hit Bravender in the last four innings. Pinckney scored her first run in the third on singles by Lavey Bros, and Ledwidge and their last in the sixth on Ledwidge's double, A. Lavey's out at first and Manning's sacrifice fly. White's fielding featured for Pinckney and the all around work of Hollis for Stockbridge, that individual getting a double and two singles in five trips to the plate and alsa robbing White of a hit by a re markable shoestring catch.

You can't pass a long, hot summer day more pleasantly than in a hammock. You will enjoy a half hour of quiet repose after lunch, or an. afternoon spent with a magazine or good book. But the hammock must be well made—it must be correctly proportioned and stoutly woven—it must not be the kind that sags and goes to pieces and hangs uneven. We handle the hammocks that experience has taught us to be of the finest make and they are marked at prices that will add pleasure to your leisure hours.

Sea Girt, N. J., Aug. 7.—Woodrow Wilson was today officially notified that he had been nominated by the Democratic party as their candidate -for president. The Bpeech of notification was delivered by Ollie James, chairman of the notification committee. In reply Governor Wilson, after thanking the committee, commented on the unusual nature of the coming campaign in which the candidates must address an awakened nation, Impatient of partisan make-believe and never more susceptible to unselfish appeals or to the high arguments of sincere Justice. The forces of the nation, he said, are asserting themselves against every form of special privilege and private control, and are seek, 1ng bigger things than they have ever heretofore achieved. Two Great Things to Do. "How do we expect to handle each of the great matters that must be taken up by the next congress and the jiext administration?" said Mr. Wilson, and he answered his own query as follows: What Is there to do? It is hard to .sum the great task up, but apparently this is the sum of the matter: There sire two great things to do. One Is to set up the rule of justice and of Tight in such matters as the tariff, the regulation of the trusts and the prevention of monopoly, the adaptation of our banking and currency laws to the varied UBCS to which our people must put them, the treatment of those who do the daily labor in our factories and mines throughout all our great industrial and commercial undertakings, and the political life of the people of the Philippines, for 'whom we hold governmental power In trust, for their service, not our own. The other, the additional duty is the great task of protecting our people and our resources and of keeping open to the whole people the doors of opoprtunity through which they must, .generation by generation, pass if they are to make conquest of their fortunes in health, in freedom, in peace, and in contentment. In the performance of this second great duty we are face to face with questions of conservation and of development, queBtlonB of forests and water powers and mines and water ways, of the building of an adetjaate^ m erch ant-xaarlire, and the- opening of every highway and facility and the setting up of every safeguard needed by a great industrious, expanding nation. These are all great matters upon which everybody should be heard, >JVe have got into trouble in recent Shears chiefly because these large things, which ought to have been handled by taking counsel with as large a number of persons as possible, because they touched every Interest and the life of every class and region, have in fact been too often handled In private conference. Our difficulty is not that wicked and designing men nave plotted against us, but that our common affairs have been determined ^ipon too narrow a view, and by too private an initiative. Our task now rs to effect a great readjustment and set the forces of the whole people once more into play. We need no revolution; we need no excited change; we need only a new point of view tuad a Dew method and spirit of counsel. We are servants of the people, the whole people. The nation has been unnecessarily, unreasonably at war -wHhin itself. Interest has clashed with Interest when there were common principles of right and of fair dealing which might and should have bound them sit together, not as rivals, but as partners. As the servants of all, we are bound to undertake the great duty of accommodation and adjustment. Revision of the Tariff. Coming to the tariff question, the governor said the schedules "have been made op for the purpose of keeping as large a number as possible of the rich and influential manufacturers •of the country fn a good humor with the Republican party, which desired their constant Anancfal support The tariff has become a system of favors, -which the phraseology of the schedule wa* -often deliberately contrived to conee*!.'' Reasserting the Democratic convtctkjf » 4tat*the only legitimate object of tadff duties is to raise revenue for the' suppart of the government he continued: ,., « ; > Tharf should be am'Immediate revl- •Ion,- I s f Jt, should be downward, unhesitatingly and steadily downward. It *hould begin with the schedule* which cay* oStfn moat obviously used,to kill competltloii iusd to raise' pftoes'ln the United States, arbitrarily and without •CO jm tffi*J iWttUUtt*. eft** te fher markets of the world; s%otts$ bWWlt l r f n i e * d or Ktybe ssfesndtd t&ov«*j*lflim .. .. , tgWBjri*.' *<* special advantage to limited groups of benefl- ^Msrj«A_«L.tor _tttbsjd|i«d control of 'Anj kind In the markets or the enterprises of the country; until special favors of every sort have been absolutely withdrawn and every part of oar laws of taxation shall have been transformed from a system of governmental patronage Into a system of Just and reasonable charges which shall fall where they will create the least burden. When we shall have done that, we can fix questions of revenue and of business adjustment in a, new spirit and with clear minds. We shall then be partners with all the business men of the country, and a day of freer, more stable prosperity shall have dawned. Control of the Trusts. The governor spoke of how recent investigations have revealed the connection between the tariff and the movement of prices, and this brought him to the subject of trusts, concerning which he said in part: I am not one of those who think that competition can be established by law against the drift of a worldwide economic tendency; neither am 1 one of those who believe that business done upon a great scale by a single organization—call it corporation, or what you will—is necessarily dangerous to the liberties, even the economic liberties, of a great people like our -own, full of intelligence and of indomitable energy. I am not afraid of anything that is normal. 1 dare say we shall never return to the old order of individual competition, and that the organization of business upon a great Bcale of co-operation is, up to a certain point, itself normal and inevitable. Power in the hands of great business men does not make me apprehensive, unless it springs out of advantages which they have not created for themselves. Big business is not dangerous because it is big, but because its bigness is an unwholesome inflation created by privileges and exemptions which it ought not to enjoy. While competition cannot be created by statutory enactment, it can In large measure be revived by changing the laws and forbidding the practices that killed It, and by enacting laws that will give it heart and occasion again. We can arrest and prevent monopoly. It has assumed new shapes and adopted new processes in our time, but these are now being disclosed and can be dealt with. Concentration of Credit. But the problem and the difficulty are much greater than that. There are not merely great trusts and com* blnations which are to be controlled and deprived of their power to create monopolies and destroy rivals; there is something bigger still than they are and more subtle, more evasive, more difficult to deal with. , There are vast confederacies (as I may perhaps call them for the sake of convenience) of banks, railways, express companies, insurance companies, manufacturing corporations, mining corporations, power and development companies and all the rest of the circle, bound together by the fact that the ownership of their stock and the members of their boards of directors are controlled and determined by com paratVvety-aoiall and- closely- Inter-1 mugt_J?ulld and buy ships In .competl related groups of persons who, by their Informal confederacy, may control, if they please and when they will, both credit and enterprise. There is nothing illegal about these confederacies, so far as I can perceive. They have come about very naturally, generally without plan or deliberation, rather because there was so much money to be invested and it was In the hands, at great financial centers, of men acquainted with one another and Intimately associated in business, than because anyone had conceived and was carrying out a plan of general control; but they are none the less potent a force in our economic and financial system on that account. They are part of our problem. Their very existence gives rise to the suspicion of a "money trust," a concentration of the control of credit which may at any time become infinitely dangerous to free enterprise. If such a concentration and control does not actually exist, It is evident that it can easily be set up and used at will. Laws must be devised which will prevent this, if laws can be worked out by fair and free counsel that will accomplish that result without destroying or serious* ly embarrassing any sound or legitimate business undertaking or necessary and wholesome arrangement Question of Conservation. Of conservation and allied matters Governor Wilson said: I do not know any greater question than that of conservation. We have been a spendthrift nation and must now husband what we have left We must do mora than that We must develop, as well as preserve, our water powers and must add great waterways to the transportation facilities of the nation, to supplement the railways within our borders as well as upon the Isthmus* We must revive our merchant marine, too, and fill the seas again with our own fleets. We must add to our present poetoSce service a parcels post as complete as that of any other nation. We most look to the health of our people upon every hand, as well as hearten them with Justice and opportunity. TheW are maay sfdee tb these great matters. Conservation Is easy to gen* erallxe about but hard to particularise about wisely. Reservation la not the whole conservation. Development of great states must not be stayed Indefinitely to await a policy by which out forests and water powers can pruaemly be mad* use- of. Use and development must gp hand in hand. The policy we adopt must be progressive, not negative, merely, as if we did not know what to do. With regard to the development of greater and more numerous waterways and the building*op of a mer* chant Jaartne. we most follow great obstructive lines and not fall back ttppn the cheap device of bounties and subsidies. In the case of the Mississippi river, tttat great central artery of. our trade, It is plain that the federal government must build and maintain the levees and keep the great waters in harnes tor the general use. It is plain, too, that vast sums o4j money must be spent to develop new^j waterways where trade will be moat served and transportation most readily cheapened by them. Such expenditures are no largess on the part of the government; they are national Investments. Merchant Marine. The question of a merchant marine turns back to the tariff again,, to which all roads seem to lead, and to our registry laws, which, if coupled with the tariff, might almost be supposed to have been Intended to take the American flag off the seas. Bounties are not necessary, if you will but undo some of the things that have been done. Without a great merchant marine we cannot take our rightful place in the commerce of the world. Merchants who must depend upon the carriers of rival mercantile nations to carry their goods to market are at a disadvantage in international trade too manifest to need to be pointed out; and our merchants will not long suffer themselves—ought not to suffer themselves—to be placed at such a disadvantage. Our industries have expanded to such a point that they will burst their jackets, if they cannot find a free outlet to the markets of the world; and they cannot find such an outlet unless they be given ships of their own to carry their goods—ships that will go the routes they want them to go—and perfer the interests of America in their sailing orders and their equipment. Our domestic markets no longer suffice. We need foreign markets. That Is another force that is going to break the tariff down. The tariff was once a bulwark; now it is a dam. For trade Is reciprocal; we cannot sell unless we also buy. The very fact that we have at last taken the Panama canal seriously in band and are vigorously pushing It towards completion is eloquent of our re-awakened interest in International trade. We are not building the canal and pouring out million upon million of money upon its construction merely to establish a water connection between the two coasts of the continent, important and desirable as that may be, particularly from the point, of view of naval defense. It Is meant to be a great International highway. It would be a little ridiculous If we should build it and then have no ships to send through it. There have been years when not a single ton of freight passed through the great Suez canal in an American bottom, so empty are the seas of our ships and seamen. We must mean to put an end to that kind of thing or we would not be cutting a new canal at our very doors merely for the use of our men-of-war. We shall not manage the revival by the mere paltry device of tolls. We tion with the world. We can do It if we will but give ourselves leave. There Is another duty which the Democratic party has shown itself great enough and close enough to the people to perceive, the duty of government to share in promoting agricultural, Industrial, vocational education in every way possible within its constitutional powers. No other platform has given this Intimate vision of a party's duty. Free to Serve the People, In concluding the governor said: A presidential campaign may easily degenerate into a mere personal contest and so lose its real dignity and significance. There is no indispensable man. The government will not collapse and go to pieces if any one of the gentlemen who are seeking to be entrusted with Its guidance should be left at home. But men are instruments. We are as important as the cause we represent, and In order to be important must really represent a cause. What is our cause? The people's cause? That is easy to say, but what does it mean? The common as against any particular interest whatever? Yes, but tht too, needs translation into acts and policies. We represent the desire to set up an uhentangled government, a government that cannot be used for private purposes, either in the field of business or in the field of politics; a government that will not tolerate the use of the organization of a great party to serve the personal alms and ambitions of any individual, and that will not permit legisltlon to be employed to further any private interest. It is a great conception, but I am free to serve it, as you also are. I could not have accepted a nomination which left me bound to any man or any group of men. No man can be just who Is not free; and no man who has to show favors ought to undertake the solemn responsibility of government In any rank or post whatever, least of ail in the supreme post of president of the United flutes. To be free It is not necessarily to be wise. But wisdom comes with counsel, with the frank and free conference of untrammeled men united in the .common Interest Should ! be entrusted with the great office of president I would leek counsel wherever it could be had upon free terms; I know the temper of the great convention which nominated me; t know the temper of the country that lay back of that convention and spoke through it. I heed with deep thankfulness the message you bring' me from it. I feel that t am surrounded | by men whose principles and ambft> tlons are those of true servants of the people. I thank God, and will take 1 courage. i'^i1' r THEODORE 'CONFESSION Of FArTH 9! COLONEL ANNOUNCES LONG LIST OF RADICAL PLANKS FOR NEW PROGRESSIVE PARTY. Leader of New Movement in Record Speech Calls for Short Ballot, Short Hours- Age Pensions, Woman's Suffrage and Other Reforms. Theodore Roosevelt made his "confession of faith" to the National Progressive convention in Chicago Tuesday. The former president struck out boldly into new ground, advocating measures which he said frankly would be denounced as either socialism or anarchy. The delegates listened to his speech with the understanding that they must either adopt a platform substantially in consonance with his ^iews or look elsewhere for a nominee for the presidency. The convention was called to order for Tuesday's session at 12:30, the delegates having been slow to arrive. Chairman Beveridge introduced Col. Roosevelt, and when cheering had ceased he Immediately began his two-hour declaration of principles. These are the conspicuous points in the Roosevelt program: Recall of judicial decisions, as first advocated by Col. Roosevelt in tho spring campaign, and for which he was subjected to wide criticism. Col. Roosevelt now advocates its extension to apply to federal as well as state courts. He favors the establishment of machinery to make easier of amendment both the national and state constitutions, especially with the view of prompt action on certain judicial decisions. Use of the government to assist workmen to become part owners of the business in which they are employed. The government system should be shaped so that "the public servant when he cannot conscientiously carry out the wishes of the people, shall at their desire leave his office and not misrepresent them in office." Would Alter System of Government. Col. Roosevelt did not suggest the method by which he would bring this about, and there was much speculation as to whether he had in mind a fundamental change In the American system of government In some quarters it was interpreted as a declaration in favor of extension of the recall to include legislative, executive and judicial officers of the national government, from the president down. , Control of the trusts through retention of the Sherman anti-trust law and establishment of an interstate industrial commission to regulate corporations as the interstate commerce commission regulates railroads. Corporations which come voluntarily under this commission and obey its orders to be immune from prosecution under the Sherman law. Those which fail to do so to he subject to prosecution, and if the prosecution is successfu , thorough dismemberment, the constituent parts not to be allowed to do business save under conditions laid down by the industrial commission. Conditions determining monopoly prices to be controlled where these concerns deal with the necessaries of life. Adoption of a number of measures to secure "social and industrial justice to the wage workers." Plan for Industrial Justice. Included in the list are establishment by law immediately of minimum wage scales for women, minimum wage commissions to fix standards of wages for all workers, old age pensions, a living wage, which Col. Roosevelt defines as an amount sufficient to provide for education, recreation, care for immature members of the family, maintenance of the family during sickness, and accumulation of reasonable saving for old age; prohibition o night labor for women and children, eight-hour shifts for workmen in industries in which men are employed 24 hours a day; national and state worklngmen s compensation laws, guarantee by law of one day's rest in every seven, old age insurance and insurance against sickness, invalidism and involuntary employment, the cost of such insurance to be distributed among employer, employe and perhaps the people at large. Legislation to Increase popular control over governmental agencies, including a national law for presidential primaries, election of U. S. senators by direct vote, the short ballot, corrupt practices acts applying to primaries as well as elections, qualified adoption of the initiative, referendum and recall. Woman suffrage. Strengthening of the pure food law. Establishment of a national health department. Creation of a permanent tariff commission to study the effects ot protection and the relations of the tariff to labor. Col. Roosevelt declared against blanket revisions of the tariff, saying that changes should be made schedule by schedule.

Development by the federal government of the Mississippi river as a deep waterway, by use of the plant employed on the Panama canal upon completion of the canal, Fortification of the Panama canal. Free passage through the canal for coastwise traffic and imposition of equal tolls for all other ships of whatever nation. Navy to be built up steadily until reduction of armaments ia made possible by international agreement. Col. Roosevelt denounced the Republican and Democratic parties as "husks, with no real soul in either,' and as "boss-ridden and privileged controlled." He asserted that the chief concern of the "privileged interests" was to defeat the new party and that they cared little whether they beat it with President Taft or Woodrow Wilson, regarding the difference between them as trivial. "I hope we shall win," he said, " and I believe 1f we can wake the people to what the fight really means that we shall win.". COMPARISON OF PLATFORMS.

"Yes, sir," resumed Jenkins, "as 1 was saying, you came In with—you know—er—the young fellow.-He kinder slouched In, looking a bit sulky.

Jenkins proceeded rapidly: "You was cording a dressing-robe about you as you came In and I see a glimpse I don't care!'—and you said it heartylike. You went on: 'I haven't a word to say—In fact, I'd be only too glad to see you succeed.'" Here I straightened with almost a screech: "What? I said that? Oh, now, Jenkins, you—oh, you're mistaken!" Jenkins eyed me sorrowfully. "Your words, sir, exactly, rind then you went on, kinder persuadlngly: 'Why, I haven't meant to stand In your way at alir*' I groaned. "Go on!" I breathed through my teeth. Then I straightened forward. "What did the judge call that punch— what kind?" "Heidelberg punch, sir,"—-a sympathetic pause as I swept my' hand through my hair. "Yes, sir, it cerand you Just *hook hands again ail qver." Jenkins stopped for breath, but I didn't say a word. S?y Jove, it all made me a bit sick, don't you know. Oh, I must have been maudlin, that's what —maudlin. I managed to wag my head to start him off again; couldn't speak, yon know! "Yea, sir." Then you says: That's all right, now, my boy; so you run along, because I'm awfuliy busy. Tomorrow we'll talk some more.' " 'Bully!' says the chap. 'Good night, old man!' Then he turns back, kinder smiling sldewlse. 'It's sure on the level, Is its that you're going to let me have a clear road with Frances?' *"0h, bother Prances I' you says laughing. 'Yes, yes, and when you win her, she'll be to me aa my own girl. And I know I'll have her love, too/ '"What's that?' saya the young fellow, kinder frowning.

Why, do you know what she dlJ tonight? She came tight up to me and in the sweetest way kissed me good night.'" "Oil!" I said, digging my fingers Into the bedclothes. "Obi" "Tea, sir!" scid Jen^ns choklly. He went on: "This young follow jaat marches right close up to you and says, speaking kinder quiet and his eyes shining, 'You say Francos kissed you?'

"Pardon, sir, for not waiting UU you came down," the butler was Raying, "but Mr. Billings was just so set on me bringing this to you, I had to." He had entered, responding to Jenkins; invitation, bearing in his hand a gray paper parcel. "For me?" I questioned, as he laid it on the table, and I eyed it ominously. Yet It could not be the same I had sent Billings myself—I could see that —for it was smaller, more compact, and in a different wrapper. But I was afraid to examine i t "Yes, sir—he's very bad this moraing, sir; the—er—that la, something last night seems to have excited him." His eye roved eloquently between .

Then suddenly I toil remorseful. "Whore, did 1 Mt him this time, Jenkins— did you notieo? Was he hurt much?" JenklnB looked down, avoiding my eyes. "Urn, not exactly, sir," be said; "in fact, it was—er—kinder the other way." 1 stared, aghaBt, "You don't mean, Jenkins—" Jenkins evidently did! His eyes expressed both pity and embarrassment. "What he did to you,"—be rolled his glance upward, trying to shape the idea—"I believe, sir, it's what you might call"—his voice dropped—"I believe it's what they do call wiping up the floor with." I closed my eyes an instant. "Finish!" I whispered, feebly flipping my hand at him. "He left then, sir, but the noise brought Wilkes and we helped you upstairs. You wouldn't go any farther than the door of the judge's bedroom —wanted to tell him, we supposed. When we got that far, I noticed Mr. Jack Billings' door—it's right opposite, you remember, sir—was standing just a little open. He called out very anxiously and shrill: 'Oh, do be very careful of the pajamas! My! my! 1 hope the pajamas are not hurt!' "And at thst, yoa just bangs inside the judge's room and In about two minutes, he stuck bis heed out, looking kinder toweled and mad like he'd been waked from a sound sleep, and he fires a wrapped-up parcel at the door opposite and yells: "There are your pajamas, you unnatural, heartless prodigal!

And Wilkes said we'd best do it because the judge would take care of you and get yotf to your room quietly. And the last thing 1 heard 'before he slammed Inside his room was: "There's one thing; I've got a daughter!'" I looked at Jenkins' miserably. Me was right; he did nave a daughter and i wanted her. But just now, 1 wished with all heart that she wan soaebedy's—-anybody else's daughter —than that of the man who had wiv nemssjd my humiliation.

"pb!'M uttered, dazed by this new blow, So it was her pajamas. But there was more of the message —I could see it in WilkeB' eye. "YeB, sir," he went on as 1 gave him a nod. "Mr. Billings called through the door-crack—and his voice was particularly shrill—screechy-ilke —very unnatural, sir—and he said: 'You tell him I say he'll find It very dangerous to keep them by him a moment; tell htm my advice is to return them immediately!'" Here the butler hesitated an instant and added: "And be said for me to try to remember three letters I was to mention—said you would understand." 'Three letters?" I repeated dully. "YeB, sir, three letters—I did remember 'em, too, because they happened to be the initials of a young woman I—h'm! Q. E. C sir." "Q. E. D.?" I said, puzzled and miserable. "What's Q. E.

When he had withdrawn, I sat there a moment, swallowing hard. By Jove, when a chap has had the hardest blow of hli life, and that, too, from his best friend, It's devilish hard to come up smiling. Presently I pulled myseU togethef, Jenkins, as he helped me dress, eyed me in a frightened way, his face kind of pale and greenish.

It will also.develop a new variety of shrewdness on the part of successful dressmakers— the ability to figure on bids. Shoe Polishes children', booto tad tbooh •bin** witaovt rvbfcbm. 25c.

It is reported that Uncle Sam intends to reduce the size of paper money to make it wear. The purchasing price of a dollar has been greatly reduced already but It doesn't seem to wear any better than it did before. To run a newspaper without occasionally publishing an item that is untrue, or without giving offence, is like running a railroad without having accidents and smash-ups. It can't be done. The postoffice authorites seem detrmined to do things which will hamper newspaper^ and the printing business in general. A compromise parcels posts bill in the senate elittmnates 3rd class matter entirely and puts printed matter iu another class. At present books, circnlara and printed matter can be mailed at two ounces for one cent postage.

Doolittle, head of the government bureau of chemistry, says: "Eat beans if meat is too expensive. They are the best substitute. Beans have a high percentage of protein which is all there is to) the value of meat. Other good substitutes for meat, of high protein values are peas, all kinds of nuts, cheese and milk. Beans and peas are the best however for a meatless diet, but eat meat once a day if your stomach and pocket book allow it. Hereafter men intrusted with the important duty of flagging a train er setting siguals must be able to speak and read the English language. The state railroad commission issned orders to that effect last Tuesday > as it is claimed foreign*!! are ptten made to perform this duty and as a matter of pmblio aafetfo toe commission* believes they should be able to comprehend what is said to them and be able to make themselves understood in cases of emergency.

Is. necessary during ths very cold weather. X Two box-seats and a small board (with strips) from the ground to* the upper part of the coop completed the) job. The end of the nest facing the front was boarded up high, to give the hens the necessary seclusion. When the coop was completed 1 raised the end door and laid an old newspaper on the floor, covering*it very,tfiickly with sand. On this,I placed'the roost; and the coop was ready for occupancy. To clean, it Is simply necessary to take out and threw away^ the newspaper, and put in a fresh one, with mors saad. In summer,' with ons of thews coops, It would be well to open a srae door to asTord sufficient ventilation, and It would be weU to keep fewer birds in each" pen. During the winter, hi one of the "bird-cage" arrangements, we keep from- five to seven large White Rock hens, with food results. Bearing in mind that about six hens could ordinarily be kept in each coop, any ons may ten, from the) number of «hrcfcene be Intends to, keep, how the system csa be extended to H. K.

About a fortnight ago the surface became covered with what may be called "blisters," raised a little above the common level, which attracted much wondering attention. Prom each of these, in a few days, a series of cracks appeared, extending themselves In rays from a center. Finally came up a broad, soft shoot looking extremely well pleased with Itself and its work, which proved to be so-eld and well known a friend as the thistle. At this moment there are hundreds of those bold intruders show* ing defiantly through the pavement affording a most Interesting illustration of the power of vegetable growth. i Mother's Chair. Mother's chair had rocked the whole family. It made a creaking noise as it moved, but there was music in its sound. It was just high enough to allow us children to put our heads Into her lap. That was the bank where we deposited all our hurts and worries. Oh, vdiat a chair that was. . . . It was a9very wakeful chair! In the sick day of children other «bsirs could not'keep awake—it kept easily awake. That .chair knew all the old lullabies, and all those wordless songs which mothers sing to their children. Songs in which all pity and compassion and sympathetic influences are combined. That, old chair has stopped rocking for a' good many yean.

ROOSEVELT HEADS NATIONAL TICKET OF PROGRESSIVES Governor Johnson of California Named a s the Colonel's Running Mate. NEW PARTY IN FIELD Platform Pledges It to Ameliorate the Conditions of Living For Ail the People. WOMAN SUFFRAGE INCLUDED Three Day Convention, Imbued With Enthusiasm and Deep Religious Feeling, Is Unlike Any Previous National Political Gathering—Fair Sex Plays a Prominent Part—8pir- Ited 8peechee of Acceptance byr tho Candidates Close the Meeting. BY E. W. PICKARD. The other day a steamship from Glasgow arrived at New York with a passenger list of sixty people, one-half of whom were young women engaged to be married. Thirty young men— their prospective bridegrooms—were waiting at the pier to receive them. There are those who look upon the incident as a blow" to native industry. American legislators have been busy protecting home products of many kinds. There are laws on the statute books forbidding the Importation of contract labor. Home-grown potatoes are protected, but there is no law guarding the home-grown girl from foreign competition by forbidding the Importation of contract brides. The marriage market In America is open to all the world. So far no voice has been raised in protest against this anomalous state of things. Perhaps It Is because young marriageable American women are unorganized and without a vote. Perhaps It is because they do not fear competition. Surely the science of chemistry has made long strides since the days of Paracelsus, when men can analyze elements at a distance of ninety-five millions of miles and undertake to pronounce upon the characteristics of a form- of matter which so far has not Jbeen encountered on earth, but has been discovered to exist in the sun. Prof. J. N. Nicholson of the British Royal Astronomical society, says there Is reason to believe the spectrum is now revealing in the corona of the sun" a more elementary form of matter than any yet discovered on the earth. It is proposed to call this elementary substarrce "nebullum." Professor Nicholson** says the spectrum of the far-distant nebulae in the depths of space Indicates that they are composed of this same "nebulium," which is coming to light in the solar radiations. "Nebulium" Is considered as being a lighter gas than hydrogen. For President: THEODORE ROOSEVELT. Fdr Vice-President: HIRAM W. JOHNSON. Chicago.—la its first national convention, held in Chicago, the Progressive party placed the above ticket In the field, and then, after singing the Dozology, went out to battle, determined to carry the fight into every corner of the country. It was like no other national convention ever hejd. Happy, hopeful, light-hearted, and none the less determined, the delegates gathered in the Coliseum displayed a continuous enthusiasm that was not dismissed by the almost utter lack of anything resembling a contest. Most of them were tyros at the political convention game, and often showed it, but they laughed at each other and at themth* Uine spent in the Coliseum. First was the speech of Albert J. Beveridge as temporary chairman," delivered on Monday. Next day wafc.^ie colonel's, e/nl Mr. pooseyelt addressed an audlenee that filled/ the* immense hall and told them plainly just where he stood on every Important issue. For the third day were reserved the nominating and seconding speeches, and tb«se were supplemented by short, snappy speeches of acceptance by the two candidates. between speechesand at every other available time the delegates sang and the bands and drum corps played. The songs were mostly the familiar patriotic songs, sometimes parodied to fit present conditions. The fife and drum corps, made up of Civil war veterans, was an enlivening feature, and when it grouped itself behind Colonel Roosevelt on the platform, where he stood grasping the hands of a Union and a Confederate veteran, and played "Dixie," the wild cheers from northern and southern delegations alike seemed to Bhow that the new party knows no sectional line and no bitter memories. Features of the Platform. If it is admitted that the Progressive party is sincere in its declaration, it certainly has started out on a cam« palgn for the amelioration of the condition of the people. The humanitarian features of the platform are easily the most numerous and the most striking. As Glfford Plnchot said, the battle to be waged Is more economic than political, and more moral than economic. The resolutions include many projected measures designed to better the living conditions of the wage earner and the fanner, and the tariff plank, while declaring for a protective tariff, declared also that it must be so constructed that a fair share of Its benefits would be received by the workman and the consumer. The Initiative, referendum and recall, and the recall of judicial decisions, as explained formerly by Colonel Roosevelt, were Indorsed. In matters more purely political the platform declared for national presidential primaries, popular election of senators and publicity of campaign funds. As has been said, It pronounced flatly In favor of equal suffrage for both sexes. 8tory of the Sessions. To Senator Dixon of Montana, as provisional chairman, fell the duty of starting things off Monday noon. He spoke briefly and forcibly and then introduced former Senator Beveridge of Indiana as the temporary chairman. Mr. Beveridge, who had just been nominated for governor by the Pro- An instance of the composition of the death lists from heat was afforded in a report from Chicago concerning the mortality. Some specifications were given concerning ten deaths. Of those three, ,were drowned, two had necks broken from falls, one man cut his throat, another fell from a buildtag, an infant, fonr days old, died without medical attention and two dropped dead, both being inside of buildings when the fatal stroke came.

Women Prominent In Convention. Then, too, in no previous convention have the women had so prominent a part They sat as delegates In many of the state sections, they swarmed in the galleries, and one of them, Jane Addams of Chicago, Introduced as the greatest and best loved woman ' in America, had the honor of seconding the nomination of Colonel Roosevelt AH this was but natural, for the colonel had declared himself In favor of equal suffrage, and the platform contained* a plank giving unqualified approval to "votes for women." Especially marked was the deeply religious feeling that pervaded the convention. This first manifested Itself on the opening day, when, in the midst of a noisy demonstration, the sand began to ptay "Onward, Christian Soldier." At ones the entire body of delegates took up the song, solemnly, with no particle of levity, and stirring words and atately muslo of the hymn rolled up to o r r i r t e f s . atasic shared with oratory most of gressives of Indiana, was given a hearty, noisy greeting, and he delivered a "keynote" address that was all his friends expected. He set forth eloquently, from the Progressive point of view, .the need of the new party and its aims and ambitions, and bis strong climaxes never failed to meet with the responsive enthusiasm of his hearers. He attacked the doings of the professional politicians, and a man in the gallery cried To h—1 with the politicians," which sentiment was loudly applauded. He scored.the attempts to dissolve the Standard Oil and Tobacco trusts, and was cheered. In stating the position of the new party in regard to business he caught the fancy of the audience by shouting : "We want to pass prosperity around!" Next day great banders bearing the words "Pass Prosperity Around" were hung from the galleries. When Mr. Beveridge concluded t h e delegates sang "The Battle Hymn of the Republic," and then the other temporary oftcers were announced. These Included the following: General secretary, 0 . K. Davis; chief assistant secretary, Wilson Brooks; sergeantat- sras, Col. Cbauncey Dewey. After adopting a role barring contested delegate! from voting on any question betel* the oonventloft, the delegates sent A committee to invite:, Colonel Roosevelt to address the convention ,T«eaday, and ,-adjtmrn<*l for the a'ay. The colonel had arrived during the morning and had been given a great ovatiem: by the people. Colopsl fU>oto\t«4*'* 3peech. Wfrefr the t^me (g£ o^enlng^the, proceedings came Tuesday Chairman Beveridge with difficulty, stopped the •gay singing of the djftegateg and JS9jJto them the following telegram* from Col. William R. Nelson* publisher of the~Kansas City Star; ''Lord, how I wish I were with you. What a great day, the launching of a party of imagination, hope and prospects. We can afford to give the other fellows their memories and disappointments. The past has no interests for us. The future is our fruit Give Colonel Roosevelt my love. I never have missed a chance to place a bet Gov. Hlrom W. Johnson. on him and never have lost when there was a square deal. The Lord Is surely with us. He has given us the men as well as the opportunity. I cannot help but feel wbat a narrow escape we had in the June convention. Roosevelt might have been nominated. My congratulations to everybody." More songs, and then came the colonel. As he Btepped briskly to the frdrit of the platform the din was deafening. Every man and women In the hall was standing on a chair, and the air was full of waving bandannas and flags. The band blared; the drum corps, standing back of Mr. Roosevelt, played as hard as it could; the delegations soon started marching about the hall, carrying their state standards and many emblems Through the tumult could be heard the bull moose call. Miss Jane Addams, one of the Illinois delegates, was boosted upon the platform, and after her came other women delegates, who were seated on the stage. When the demonstration had lasted about forty-five minutes the audience recognized Mrs. Roosevelt in the balcony over the main entrance and directed the cheering toward her until she rose and waved a bandanna in response. She and the colonel exchanged greetings across the throng. Finally, after nearly one hour, the tumult died down gradually and Colonel Roosevelt was permitted to deliver his address. It was a frank and full statement of his political and economic creed and was well received. Near its close he was interrogated as to his position on the question of negro representation in southern delegations, and he made a lengthy ex* planation which seemed to suit the convention and which afterward was approved by assembled negroes. Colonel Roosevelt having concluded, W. Frank Knox of Michigan took the platform and, as chairman^ presented the report of the credentials committee. The report barred every negro delegate who had contested a seat in the convention. Doings of the Closing Day. It was nearly noon on Wednesday when the convention came to order, and there was a lot of work to accomplish. First the temporary organization was made permanent, and then Medill McCormlck presented the report of the committee on rules. This gave the name of Progressive party to the new party, with the provision, added later, that in states where it was necessary to operate "under another name, the party there should be recognized. as an integral part of the. national party. Various clauses designed to do away with conditions that bad been causes of complaint in the old parties were adopted with cheers. William H. Hotchkiss, chairman of the New York organization, told the 'convention of the work being done by the Progressives in his state and of their prospects, and then a recess* was taken. An hour and a half later the delegates returned from the lunch counters and more rules wore adopted. Chief of these was one empowering the national executive committee to appoint four women as members at large 6f the national committee. Prende*gest Names ffoossvelt. "The secretary will now call the roll of states for nominations for president," said the chairman. "Alabama," called the secretary, but be got no further.

Bang went the gavel for the last time, and the first national convention of the Progressive party was a part of the political history of the United States. Some Amusing Incidents. Ttie convention was not without its funny features. The band provided the crowd with several good laughs. Once Chairman Beveridge megaphoned the leader to play "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" and the musicians played the "Battle Cry of Freedom" ali through. Again, on the last day the delegates were oheertng Mrs. Roosevelt and the band rendered "Oh, You Great Big Beautiful Doll" with great eclat The Illinois delegation marched in once earryiag on a long pole-the hat Frank Funk, the Progressive candidate for governor, used to wear, and it remained as a feature of the Illinois section.

Some one found her and led her to the front, but she "couldn't cama badr," the furore was waning, and1 after shaking Ma. Roosevelt's hand, she retired grassy fully.

The nomination was made by acclamation^ Now came the grand eftmax of the convention. The chair had announced that the nominees would appear on the platform and accept the honor conferred on them. The notification committees retired - and soon returned, escorting Messrs. Roosevelt and Johnson, and the entire body of delegations and guests rose with a mighty roar. As the leaders stood side by side a big flag was unfurled from the rafters, and when he could make himself heard, Senator Beveridge announced that then was unfurled for the first time the flag bearing the 48 stars in the new and authorized arrangement. "Of course I will accept the nomination," said the colonel, when he was given a chance to speak, and after giving assurance of his heartfelt devotion to the cause he said some mighty nice things about Governor Johnson. . The governor responded in kind, declaring that he would rather go down to defeat with Roosevelt than to win a victory with any other man in the world. While he spoke the Californlans distributed dodgers bearing these words: Roosevelt and Johnson. New Tork and California. Hands across the Continent. . "But there ia neither east nor wCst, border nor breed nor birth, When two strong men stand face, to face, though they come from the ends of the earth." —Kiting. With difficulty .Chairman Beveridge restrained jthe Crowd, begging it to wait quietly, until he declared the convention adjourned. At his request, after the benediction had been pronounced, all joined In singing the Doxology, and they sang it with tlue so- This year's grain crops in the United States will be far in eieesB oflasjt. years yield* to.**** t*ti|»ated Saturday by the .-detriment of agriculture. • '*•'» x-', y.: y ..;)• It will be better .than the. average crop for the past ten years, and in the case of a number of products wUl make a new record, if present estimates are not overthrown by unforseen conditions. The country's corn crop, estimated at 2,S11,000,000 bushels, will be the largest in the nation's history, with the exception of the years 1906 and 1910, the former being the banner year with 2,927,p00,000 bushelB.

The yield of rye, 35,000,000 bushels, will equal that of 1910, the former record year. Of potatoes, which will amount thia year to :ni,000,"000 bushels, only 1909 with its 38.9,000,000 bushels, produced a larger yield. Michigan is expected to produce 7,3S2,000 bushels of winter wheat of a quality rated at 78. The unusual weather in'the state has reduced the corn crop to a condition rated at 72, a s against 81 for 1911, and 79, the average for the last ten years. Michigan oats, however, show encouraging reports, this year's crop standing S7, compared with 81 for 1911 and 85 for the teu-year average. PASSES CANAL BILL.

M k U w A-prtetJrwfJ Coil— mryi^H ri ITi r, i i r i r 'if "tssssm Finely ground raw rock phosphate, such as is being sold as a source of phosphoric acid, for fertilising, .purposes la found quite extensively throughout the southern, middle westera and western states. It has been conservatively estimated that if the present rate of consumption should be increased three times, there is now in sight an amount of rock phosphate sufficient to supply the demand for 1,200 years. The principal source of supply for this section at the present time is Tennessee, and a good grade of rock should be laid down, in car lots, along the lines of the trunk railroads in the southern part of the state for $8.50 to $9.00 per ton. The grade of rock phosphate generally found upon the markets contains about 61 per cent, booe phosphate of lime, which is equivalent to 28 per cent, phosphoric acid and 33 per cent lime. Fineness la a large factor in determining the availability of rock phosphate. The finer the material the more readily it will become available, consequently this point should be taken into consideration when purchasing. To obtain the best results it should be ground to such fineness that 95 per cent will pass through a 100 mesh screen. By far the greater part of the rock phosphate used for fertilizing purposes is in the form of acid phosphate, (dissolved phosphate or superphosphate). This is prepared by treating the rock phosphate with an equal weight of sulphuric acid (oil of vitriol). This treatment changes the phosphoric acid from an insoluble to a soluble form and makes it readily available to the growing plant. The cost of the phosphoric acid to the consumer is increased by this process to nearly four times, since the acid phosphate sells at retail for nearly double what the raw phosphate costs and it contains only half as much phosphoric acid. In view of this situation the question naturally arises would it not be more economical to use the slowly available raw phosphate than to pay the higher price for the acid phosphate. Many of the state experiment stations have conducted experiments to compare these two forms of phosphoric acid, but the results have been conflicting. In fact the results obtained at fiome statlonns over a period of several years have been so contradictory ai to be of little value. The most widely advertised experiments with rock phosphate are , those conducted by Dr. Hopkins in Illinois. These experiments have been in progress during a period of 12 or 14 years and have been conducted on the so-called prairie soils ri«h in organic matter. The crops most commonly employed have been corn, oats, wheat and clover. The rock phosphate has at all times been applied in connection with liberal amounts of manure or with clover turned under. The conclusions* drawn from the results of these experiments are that rock phosphate is a more economical source of phosphoric acid than the treated phosphate. In Ohio the experiments by Director Thomas have been conducted in much the same manner as the Illinois experiments, but the results here justify the conclusion that the acid phosphate is the more economical source of phosphoric acid. A few experiments have been conducted by the Michigan experiment station, and in no case have the results favored the rock phosphate, though it should be stated that the experiments were not conducted under the most favorable conditions. In reviewing the experiments reported from all experiment stations where experiments "have been conducted it is impossible to arrive at any definite conclusion on the subject, consequently letters were written to the direc tors of 21 state experiment stations asking them to state how they advised thelf constituent farmers on the subject. Seventeen replied by saying that they do cot recommend the use of rock phosphate and four recommend Its use when accompanied by liberal applications bf barn yard manure or when green manure Is turned under. Director Tborne, who is often quoted as favoring rock phosphate, replied by saying "In- our experiments UT the use of raw rock phosphate as a re-enforcement of manure, as compared with add phosphate, we find very little difference 4n the net return, after deducting the cost of treatment, "between the two materials. The difference at present seems to be slight ly in favor of the acid phosphate. Our results in the separate uae of the two phosphates as a direct application to the land do not encourage the use of the raw rock." Although the results from all these experiments *r* so contradictory they have clearly demonstrated one thing i. e. that It is useless to uae raw rock pboepfcato except as a re-eoforcement of manure or upon land that 1« rich In organic matter. Dr. Hopkins strongly emphasise* this point in, these words: .We desire again to emphasize the fact that humus as well aa phosphorus is needed to maintain the fertility of Illinois toil, and again to doubly emphasise the fact that raw phosphate must be used In connection with liberal amounts of manure or with a good crop of clover plowed under If satisfactory results are to be ••cured oa Illinois soils. Whoa used without a good crop rotation and with* out farm raanare or green manure, dtsv 1 , • .' ?.'lj'J! appointing results are very sure to follow." " ' '" •'" U is the opUMon o/ the writer^based upon tjie available evidence' from all sources, that more eafeful experimenting must be done before this question can be definitely settled. Up to the present time the beet results, taking everything into consideration, have been obtained with the acid phosphate. Then, too, it has not yet been definitely proved that the beneficial results from the. use of raw rock phosphate la due in every case to the phosphoric acid It contains. As previously stated raw rock phosphate contains, on an average, 28 per cent, phosphoric acid and 33 per cent lime and any reaction taking place in the soU tending to make available the phosphoric acid will also make the lime available. In -many of the experiments with rock phosphate crops have been used which are known to be usually benefited by lime, and in such cases it i s unfair, in the writer's opinion, to attribute the good results entirely to the phosphoric acid of the rock phosphate. Then, too, the use of rock phosphate under the most favorable conditions calls for better methods of farming and this, of itself, is bound to increase the yields. In conclusion, the writer wishes to Impress upon the readers of this article that the results of other experiments cannot be taken as applying to their own conditions and that if rock phosphate Is used at all it should be done in an experimental way, and that it should be used on such crops as corn, oata, wheat, clover, etc., and never upon crops like potatoes, sua*w •B^maj n«uts 'suoiuo 'eB«qq«o 'trpeq SE The Cost of Making Cement " Tile By H. H. Musselman In the following figures which are furniBhed for estimating the cost of making cement tile It must be kept In mind that they will be affected by local conditions in almost .every case- The cost of labor, sand and gravel, kind of machine used, convenience of arrangement for manufacturing) and number to be made, will all affect this item. The factors which will affect the cost to the greatest degree are labor, and the coat of sand laid down at the place of manufacture. The element of labor required Is often neglected in making estimations of this kind, since it is assumed that at certain seasons of the year it cannot be used for other purposes. This should not be neglected because the successful farmer endeavors to use his time in suoh a way as* to give it the highest worth. This will only be possible when U Is considered and its real value becomes known. In places where sand Is difficult to obtain or where clay tile is extensively manufactured, the making of cement tile on the farm may not be advisable, but in sections where clay tile are not easily obtained, and where sand 1B convenient, their cost will usually be found less than for the clay product. The following figures are based on some rather short teBts made by the farm mechanics department of the Michigan agricultural college. These tile were made on a machine adaptable to both hand and power operating, the mixing being done by hand. Two men were required to operate the machine to the best advantage. On this machine from 40 Oto 500 tile could be made per day of ten hours by hand power, and from 600 to 750 per day, using small gasoline engine for power. Not more than one-half to one horse power was required to run the machine. In any case it would be of decided advantage to use power, and if a Targe number are to be made a mixer could be devised which could be operated by power, and thereby materially reduce the work connected with their manufacture. Making at the rate given above the cement and sand has to be mixed in comparatively small batches, since no more should be mixed than can be used in a half hour. All the figures given are for a four inch tile having a nlne-slxteenth-inch wail. No data was obtained on other sizes. The cost of the size given should give a fair notion of the cost of the other common sizes and furnish a basis of comparison with other kinds of ttle. The proportions used were one to four of cement and sand, screened through a three-eighth • Inch screen.

The cerembhy was over, and the happy pair walked down the aisle, out into the street, where a great crowd greeted them with delight. "Once seated within the cab, Bridget leaned over to Pat and said, in a loud whisper, 'Och, Pat, If we could only have stood on the sidewalk and watched ourselves pass, wouldn't it have been hivin'."

Mtl Frank Bell Frank Bell waa born May 31, 1888 in Dexter township, Washtenaw Co. and died August 6 / 1912. Until the p u t few months he was looked upon as a model of physical fituess and there were few who could outdo him iu a hard day's work. A short time ago his health began to fail and in hope of relief he went to the U. of M. hospital at Ann Arbor, where the specialists diagnosed his case as valvular heart trouble. Although everything possible was done to help him, a special nurse being in attendance constantly, and having the best attention that a private patient could have iu that great institution, he did not survive long after goiug there. Frank was well known to all in this community and his loss will be felt by all his friends, and especially by his former employers who considered him one of the best workman in this section. He was strictly honest and trust worthy, faithful and thoroughly competent iu every branch of farm work, always deeply appreciative of any kindness shown him and never forgetting to repay any favor, no matter how small. This fine characteristic was especially noticeable iu his kitid and sympathetic attentions to his mother in her recent severe illness. j That the funeral was the largest I held in Pinckney for some years j shows the appreciation of his loss and sympathy with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Mark Bell, and the eight brothers and three sisters in this their first great bereavment Relatives and friends from | Webberville, Jackson, Ann Arbor, - \ Munith, Bunker Hill and Dexter, T 1 17 1 If • J D*ll besides an unusually large number 1&K6 r 0 l 6 y IvlQIlCy I 1113 j from Pinckney were in attendance TONIC IN ACTION - QUICK IN RESULTS i at the funeral.

Headquarters For Magazines BROWN S DRUG STORE Pinckney. Mich* The Pinckney Public Schools will open Monday, Sept 2 for classification and assignment of seats. "Ignorance 1» the curse of God. Knowledge the wing wherewith We fly to heaven." —Shakespeare The school has for its general aim the making of good citizens and by its perscribed course of study aims to give the student a good, sound, practical education and to prepare them for advanced work in Normals and colleges where they are accepted without examinations. Non-resident pupils receive a cordial welcome and so far as is consistent with the general grading of the school, a special effort will be made to afford all such a classification as is best suited to their needs. 60 percent of our high school enrollment last year were non-residents: Non-residents that have not passed the county examination before classification. Pupils who wish to enter grades below the high school will be permitted to do so on presentation of satisfactory certificates, otherwise they will be subject to such examinations as the superintendent deems necessary in order to determine their classification. Children are admitted at five years of age. Beginners classes are formed but once a year and that is in September, hence the only time of entrance for children is in the fall. Miss Leona Heine of Mt, Clemens and M. S. N. 0., 1912 will occupy the preceptress cbair. She comes highly recommended as an instructor and disciplinarian by those who know her best from observation along educational lines, and we assure you that the good work of her predecessor will be carried on with the additional improvements made each year, Snperintenden t H. D. McDougall will be pleased to meet parents or pupils at his residence on Unadilla St. who may wish to interview him before the opening of school, tyow for another year of drawing out, unfolding, enlarging, developing -and strengthening all the powers, faculties and susceptibilities of human nature. Chancing Meals Of Funeral Music The minister who advocated the abolishing of singing at funerals because music is a sign of joy and gladness and has no place at a funeral, takes rather a narrow view of music for one of his calling. The Christiau religion nut only teaches that death is the gateway to a more glorious life and not an occasion of mourning, but also that music is aa expression of Hpi ritual exaltation and of hope of faith—all sentiments that should prevail as the services to the departed. Indeed, it might rather be suggested that the melancholy wailing kind of music too often chosen for funerals be succeeded by uplifting songs of hope and triumph. It would be a happy change if we could reform away the plaintive, airs that now so often make a part of the funeral ceremony and seemingly only serve the purpose of harrowing the feelings of the bereaved in* stead of promoting the feeling of serene and comforting quiet that should prevail at the last sad rites. It seems to be the effort of those who select the music to choose the saddest of tunes even for words that have ki them something of hope, and the dismal strains mere, ly add new grief to the sore hearts of the bereaved. The changing ideals in funeral music are followiug the changes in the refinement in funeral service it} general, which is to soften the/grief and to infuse a spirit of subdued sorrow for the agony of physical mourning of the "old fashioned tod."-E*. flOWBll Mtoritiin Dance Ttlesday Euening Jltfgilst 27, 1912 A Hammock ? - These summer days a hammock is a cool and comfortable place to rest no matter how hot the weather may be. You can't pas** a long, hot summer day more pleasantly than in a hammock. You wiM enjoy a half hour of quiet repose after lunch, or an afternoon spent with a magazine or good book. But the hammock must be well made—it must be correctly proportioned and stoutly woven—it must not be the kind that sa^s and goes to pieces and hangs uneven.

"IB anything the matter, Mr. Lightnut?" she asked, coming toward me— and how kindly, almost tenderly, her sweet face Boftened! "IB It anything about Jacky?" snapped the frump. I shook my head and Just gently placed the little wrapped parcel in Frances* hands. My hand shook so J almost dropped It. "Some—something of yours that was Tost," I said, and I knew my voice whock a little, too. "I was fortunate in recovering it." I looked at h e r - itor the- last time, I knew—and it was just my devilish luck t'hat she got misty and dim. t whispered hoarsely: "Open when you are alone." And then I walked straight out or the house!

I sat down on am iron bench to think it over, and, by Jove, I must have dozed off, for the first thing I knew some one yelled my viame, and I looked up to see—Billings! He was looking a bit soiled and disheveled, and his eyes had a haunted Jook. "What the devil are you doing, sitting here?" he demanded. "I—I'm going," 1 Bald, hurriedly getting to my feet. "Just resting—I—" "They told me I would tind you -fcere," he said. "Here you are, sit* ting out here in the hot sun without any hat! Good thing, Dicky, you Haven't got any—h'm!" Then he panted *t me: '*Say, nfee way you and rev titter treated me—1 don't think! But I'll forgive you thlg time." Mere he linked his arm In mine.

"By George, Dicky," he burst out again, "the way I've been shut up and treated Just seems like some infernal conspiracy. Good thing Jack Ellsworth's dad had a pull with the mayor —tell you all the whole rotten business when I can talk about it quietly." "That's right! that's right!" I said soothingly, "wouldn't think about it at all now, old chap!" No use reminding him, you know, that he had shut himself up. Besides, the wandering of his mind to Jack Ellsworth and his father showed me that even yet be was not quite himself. Billings mopped his forehead. "My, but it was hot in that hole!" he exclaimed. "And that reminds me— have you seen the governor this morning? No? Well, talk about hot! George, but the old man was hot under the collar when I saw him Just now! And he looks like he had been dropped from a shot tower! It's this case he's working on, I guess, or else It's about Francis. He's found out what I knew." "Do—do you think so?" I questioned nervously. "Pretty sure," said Billings carelessly. "Fact is, he's already fixing up to send Francis to some kind of reformatory—heard him making the arrangements over the 'phone"—I was glad he didn't look at me as he rattled ,on—"and, by the way, the governor told me to tell you not to say a word to Francis—I suppose you'll understand." Understand? Oh, yes, I understood! "And he said he wanted to see you.'' "Is—is he here?" I stammered, pulling back. "Thank goodness, no. Gone to meet Co'.onel Francis Klrkland—say, don't say anything about It—wants to surprise his daughter, you know. On his way to London via San Francisco— arrived at Washington a few days ago." Oh, the frump's father! Much I cared! But knowing how interested he was in her, I tiled to show an interest. "Colonel Francis—er — isn't his daughter named after him?" And i felt myself grow Jolly red, for I remembered that she had told me that about her friend as she sat on the arm of the Morris chair and in the black pajamaa. "Hanged If I know," said BUllngs carelessly. "I don't know what her name is—don't remember that I ever heard." He whistled. "Say, but did you ever see anything as stunningly pretty In your lire?" I balked. By Jove, I had been doing some mild lying within the paBt twenty-four hours, but this was asking too much. Dash me If I Just could go it, that's all. But he didn't seem to notice. He slapped me on the back. "By George, Dicky, there's Just the girl cut out lor you, old chap—take my tip. J think she likes you, too— could see it Just now when I was talking about you." So that was it, I reflected gloomily. The frump now was to be worked off on me, and 1 waB expected to stand for it. I was to be h, sort of what-youcall- it offering on the altar of friendship. That was the condition upon which he was patching up things! Billings laughed suddenly. "But, oh, I tell you it would be hard on Francis—a regular knockout, by George!" Devilish brutal for him. to say so, I thought. f * '"Do you think so?" I questioned dismally. "Would Frances really care?" "Oh, yes," he said lightly. "Soon get over it, though—puppy love, you know." Puppy love, Indeed! By Jove, how I hated Billings! He went on: "Suppose you never heard anything of the professor and the pajamaa?" I "had not, and I was devilish sick of pajamas, anyway. "And say, Dicky, I don't remember that I ever thanked you properly, old man, for putting up my kid brother the other night. He says you treated him like a brick and that you aad h^ got to he great pals. So much obliged, old chap, because he wanted to go running around, you know." "Your brother?" I questioned, astonished, and I guess my face mutt havfc showed It, "Didn't he stay with you7" he snapped. I stared blankly. *Why, Billings— I didn't know—I didn't remember you had a brother. 1 never have seer him." Billings' face sweliee redder, and be struck his fist down with an oath. He looked angrily toward the house. Then he stepped hurriedly in advance of me. * "'•>*• -» -•, "Excuse me, old chap, will you?" he said, his voice hardened. "Will tee yon at luncheon—make yourself at home, won't you?" , pergola, and, dropping upon a bench, gazed gloomily at the sunlight patches at my feet. "Oh, here you are, eh?" broke harshly upon me. I looked up, startled from my mood. There, hands upon his hips and scowling, stood—the chauffeur! I frowned, but the fellow Just moved nearer. "I guess mamma's baby don't feel so spry this morning!" he jeered. "Does its little heady-cums ache-ums—eh?" I grunted rather wearily. "If it does, my good fellow, It's none of your business. Don't bother me!" I shifted the other way. "Oh, isn't It?"—his tone quickened truculently—"Well, maybe I'll make it my business!" He Jerked his arm at me, continuing sharply: "Look here, you glass-eyed monkey-Jack, don't you get flip with me this morning"—he laughed coarsely—"or I'll think you want some more! Do you?" I turned my head and, polishing my monocle carefully, gave it a tight screw and took him in slowly, begin-, ning with his yellow mop of hair and ending with the toes of his soiled canvas shoes. By Jove, I was sure they'd never been whitened since he bought them. I seemed to anger him. He uttered a sort of snort with a mutter uncomplimentary and strode forward, towering above me where I sat. "Answer, when I'm talking to you, you sapheaded fool," he bellowed, "or I'll wring your neck! I asked if you wanted some more." I stretched my arms, trying their muscle room in a lengthy yawn, and blinked at him with my free eye, wondering where the deuce he got the crimson bat band. By Jove, that was the most dashed impertinent thing of all! "More what?" I drawled Indifferently. "More—of that!" — viciously — and thwack his knuckles struck against the iron back of the jolly bench. For I wasn't there, don't you know. "Huh! Think you're some smart, don't you?" he sneered, hitching his trousers band. "Now, look here"— he leveled his finger—"you're a guest here and I know I oughtn't to do it, and I hate it for Jack's sake, but I'm feeling I'll just have to give you another trimming this lovely morning!" He chuckled, rolling his lips and spreading them till I could Bee every tooth. He moved toward me leisurely, slipping up his sleeves. "What you got last night, sonny, was for your own sake, but this time It's going to be for Frances'—you fisbworm!" "Guess we'll leave Miss Frances out And be struck hU chest a blow to show me what he meant. And just then I remembered to smooth my hair-part. "Ob, you—" With a growl like a bear, he swept both his hands to his head and whirled them through his great yellow pile, leaving each hair standing on end like the quills of the fretful what'a-ltB-name. Then he danced toward me, pausing irregularly to double over -with a chuckle. • "Oh, this is too good!" he yelped. "But I can't help it; I jest can't refuse the money, Lizzie! I know they'll send me away for this, but—Oh, mamma!" And over he'd double again- Oddest thing, isn't it, how your jolly active mind will wander at the rummest times; and I had a thought then of how, when I was a delicate boy, bully old Doctor Dake and Doctor Madden had prescribed a punching- bag, and later boxing-gloves. And I thought with a pang of what ripping times the governor and I had, scrapping, and of what knocks he gradually began to give me until he forced me to learn to come back harder. Jove, what corking hours we had! And then when Cbugsey, the retired English light-weight champion, came to butler—oh, what smashing threehanded rounds we used to have! Bully old governor, who was never so busy on his sermons but what he could take a walk or a ride with me; or talk with me, or fight with me! Why, he— By Jove, my dashed monocle got sc> cloudy of a sudden, I almost missed the chauffeur's move—almost, don't you know! And then— "I say, you know!" I said disgustedly, as I screwed my monocle at him there, his yellow mat sticking out of sight through the jolly vines. "Awfully raw thing to strike at a man and leave your guard open like that —••I could have put it over your heart, don't you know!" I heard a little sound behind me and there was she! "Oh!" I gasped as I slipped into my coat. And now I was miserable, for I remembered how kind this chauffeuT, Scogglns, bad been to her. And for her to have seen me In this vulgar row! "Yes, I saw it all,'* she said, as I moved toward her, murmuring some jolly effort at apology. Her eyes were •shining. "I saw It ail, sir—and heard.

The President with 136 souls on board, was the first of thise to be lost for aver in 184*; The City of Glasgow disappeared in 1854 without leaving a trace, and she had 480 BOUIS on boad. In 1856 the Pacific, with a living freight of 240, Bailed from Liverpool in June, and was never more heard of. The Tempest, with 150 souls, mysteriously disappeared in 1859. The City of .Boston, with 170 persons, vanished in 1870. #The Huronian, an Allan liner, disappeared in 1902; and the British gunboat, Condor, was lost in the Pacific in 1901. In 1893 a cattle steamer, the Naronic, with 77 aboard, was lost. • a to the possible causes of the catastrophes, it is only possible to surmise. Capsizing, damage from within, such as explosion, breakdown of machinery, or fire; or damage from without, such as collision with an iceberk or with a derelict hulk, have all been suggested to explain the losses of vessels. The Captain capsized, and hundreds of lives were lost, and it is npw generally assumed that the Warathah capsized by reason of topheaviness. As to the damage to ma* chinery, there 1B the case of the City of Paris, which had a big smash in one of her engine rooms in 1890. She was near the Irish coast, but though both engine rooms were filled with water in ten minutes, she was kept afloat owing, to her watertight compartments for three days till help came to tow her into Queenstown. In the caw of a fire, everything, probably, would toe consumed to the water's edge, and If this happened far from land, the chances of rescue wonld be remote. Heavy weather and tidal waveB wtth the older vessels, at aay rate, -were probably other reasons.for shipwreck. POPULAR SYMBOL OF VALUE SMALL WONDER.

CHILD'S FACE ALL RED SPOTS Tracing the Dog^i Descent. It seems to be generally accepted by naturalists and the world at large that the domestic dog is in some sense a collateral descendant of the wolf or jackal, says ~8. witter in Harper's Weekly. A professor at the Natural History Museum in Parte "has communicated results of his sttrdy jjf various canine skulls to the academy of sciences. He appears to have notioed certain percullarities of growth which have hitherto escaped zoologists. He states that the skull of almost every species of wolf and Jackal differs from the skull of the Fhepherd dog to an extent that makes it impossible that this dog should belong in the eame classification. The skull of the Indian wolf, on the contrary, shows some points of resemblance. This, indeed, is the only savage canine the top of whose head projects like that tof the dog. There are, saoreover, other characteristics which tbe-Indian wolf has in common with the (dog, and which the ordinary wolf does not share with them, although his .origin and that of the dog have long been supposed to be a common one. The conclusion of this scientist is that the Indian wwM is the progenitor of the shepherd dog and the bloods hound. There were two primitive races of dogs analogous t© these which were first domesticated in central Asia, whence they passed to Europe, and there seems no reason to doubt that the bloodhound of today is the direct descendant of the dog spoken of by the ancients as "the dog of the age of bronze."

Often before a sufferer realizes what tke trouble is, he is on the verge of a complete nervous breakdown. It is of the utmost importance to keep your nervous system i n jrood condition, as the nerves are trie source of all bodily power. Mrs. Anna Kounz, 2ii Mechanic St., Pueblo^ Colo., says: — "^or many years I surTercd^jeTom nervous prostration; I was unable to do any hoase work and doctors failed to help ine. Remedies I trie*1 from druggists did not do me a.particle of good. A neighbor told my husband about Dr. Miles' Nervine and he procured a bottle. After the first few doses 1 showed a marked improvement' and after taking t w o bottles 1 was entirely cured. I have been perfectly well for years and cannot praise Dr. Miles' Nervine too highly." If you are troubled with lose o f appetite, poor digestion, weakness, inability to sleep; if you are in a general run down condition and unable to bear your part of t h e daily grind of life, you need something to / strengthen your nerves. You may not realize what is the matter with yen. hut that is" no reason why you should delay treatment. Dr. Miles' Nervine has proven its vnlue in nervous disorders for thirty yrars, and merits a trial, no matter how many other remedies have tailed tu help you. Sold by all druggists.

It 1B a matter of common experience that bright lights in a chamber, church or ball where numerous persons are g*th*j>e4 together have the effect of producing drowsiness among certain members of the congregation or audience, says_ Oie Pjffadekmla Press. This phenomenon is easily explained by toe current knowledge of hypnotism.' The' drowsiness produced by the lights is a species of hypnosis. It has been suggested also that lack of proper., ventilation causes a toxic quality in the atmosphere to which some people are especially susceptible, the result being an Irresistible drowsiness. Sleeping In church has always been a ready subject for humor. It is related that on one occasion when a proposal was under discussion to have a Berles of sermons preached on topics of the day .which were agitating the public minds, Rufus Choate, as a member of the congregation, protested vehemently, saying, "I seek my pew, as I seek my bed, for repose." There is also an anecdote of an old Scotchman who was asked if he knew a certain man in the same neighborhood. "Know him?" he replied with emphasis. "Why, I've sleeplt In the same kirk wi' him for forr-ty year." But the majority of preachers have never been inclined to take a humorous view of the matter, any more than Dean Swift.

Burns Operatives, After Close Investigation, Dig Up Proofaof Alleged Swindle, Arrests Are Due "The law does not permit a man to leave bis wife Just because she nags him," Justice Marean decides. He meant, of course, the law of this state, says the New York Mall. In Kentucky, Missouri and. other states, "ungovernable temper" and "indignities" are a cause not only for separation, but for absolute divorce and nagging may certainly be carried to the point of indignity; while In Oregon one may obtain a divorce if the partner of one's Joys, and especially of one's sorrows, "makes life burdeniiome." And wlTat can be more* bur-' deneome than nagging? However, there ought not to be divorce, nor even separation, for nagging, because no court of Justice can ever be sure that the nagging is not justified; least provoked. Some women, for instance, are born naggers. Some achieve nagging, and a considerable numbers of others have nagging thrust upon them by a course of conduct which may be outwardly courteous, but which in its essence is insupportably Irritating.

Took Slot Machine at Its Word. A Kansas City woman recently took her two small daughters to make their first visit to her husband's people, living in a small Kansas town. Naturally she was anxious to make as favorable an impression as possible. So the two little people, on going on an errand to the depot, were cautioned to be on their very best behavior. To the mother's surprise, they returned vigorously chewing gum. As they had DO money, she asked them where they got it. "Oh," explained the older one, "It said on the slot machine, 'Ask the agent for pennies/ so we did." M attervof Justice. GEXKR.VL MARKETS.

Where shall justice begin, with those who have power or with those who suffer wrong? If exact and ideal justice were done, the weak would make an effort to give to the strong all that is their due, and the strong would try to put their affairs in order BO that no just cause of complaint should exist anywhere. The unhappy element in the relations of the strong and the weak is that both are thinking too much about exacting justice and not enough about doing that which is Just and right.

Thta drawing shows a derrick stacker which la different from any I lave yet seen, writes Alfred Peterson In the Farmers' Mall and Breeze. It will build a stack twice as Ions as ^ ^ -the length of the arm, aa high as the mast, and aa wide as the arm la long, The skids C are made of S by 14 inch plank and the base is 7 feet wide. The braces are 2 by 6's and Bhould be still further braced by cross braces not - given in the drawing. The hole in the platform H is 3 inches larger than the diameter of the mast which allows the mast to lean over towards the stack BO the load will carry Itself to any place on the stack. The mast is a telephone pole 35 feet long and rests on a pivot on the skids. The arm B Is a smaller pole 25 feet long at the Inner end of which a crotch shaped iron holds it in place against the mast. From this Derrick Stacker. crotch a rod passes up and around the mast over the iron catches marked I. The arm is raised or lowered by means of the rope F. At the upper end of the mast is a large ring to which guy ropes IT, arp, fAwtanflH ThA riorrlck must be solidly guyed when in use. The rope D is for bringing the load in place on the stack. G is the rope to which the horse is hitched. The feature of this stacker is that it will always drop the load in the center of the stack whether at the ends or in the middle. A stationary arm stacker will not do this. This stacker may be successfully used on a windy day and will handle as much hay in a day aa any boughten one. .IMPROVED SEEDS ARE BEST Quart of New Variety of Corn Would Grow Enough to Plant Big Acreage at Small Cost. (By M. VT. KELLET.) I believe that every farmer would Und It profitable to devote a certain portion of his farm to growing seed for the coming year. In this way he could buy seed each year and plant it on his test grounds and grow all that would be required for his next year's -•-crops-.... ^._ One quart of some new variety of Held corn would grow enough seed to plant quite an acreage and the cost 'would be comparatively small. A peck 5*> : \ • Carefully Selected and Prepared. of some new kind of potatoes would -furnish tee* for quite a patch next jrear. One bushel of seed oats would furnish enough leed for a number of acres the next year. This woaki give the seed an opportunity to become better aocUmatsd and be could select the best seeds for home use, which is sn opportunity that seldom comes to a farmer who buyi seed from the seedmsn who sell it froax the general orop which 1» raised • by farmers especially for tbem. Then there is always an opportunity for a farmer to tell choice seed oats, corn or. potatoes to bis nearby friends for a better price than his* gea- «rst< crops wlH -bring. The time is : coming when good seed will be better appreciated by fanners. Cultivating Potatoes Late. The Virginia truck experiment station has'found that the best results In growing potatoes are obtained where the soil is kept level during the earlier cultivations, but as the season advances earth may be worked toward the vises by means of winged cultivators in order to keep the tubers thoroughly covered and free from sun scald. It has also been found best to eon- ' liiroe cutttvattssv as-late 4e the season growers do not stop cultlvaters-emtU two or three weeks before djgxtag » started. GOOD USES FOR WHITEWASH Purifier la Needed In Poultry House, In tUrns, Hog Pens and Other Places—It la Cheap. Everybody-should know how to mix a good whitewash. It is needed in the poultry house, in the barns, looks well on the fences, hog pens. etc. It is a purifier because it is antiseptic and deodorant It is cheap, looks well, and when rightly made and put on is a good preserver. The standard "government whitewash" is made as follows: Slack a half bushel of quick lime in boiling water, keeping it Just covered with water during the process. Strain this, then add a speck of salt dissolved in warm water, three pounds of ground rice boiled in water to a thin paste, one-half pound Spanish whiting, and a pound of glue together in warm water. Mix these thoroughly and let stand for a Jew days. Apply hot Coloring matter can be added if desired. Dry paint pigments are used fcr thla purpose. Another good outside whitewash is made as follows: Slack a half bushel of lime in boiling water as described above. Add to this after straining two pounds sulphate of zinc and on? pound salt dissolved in water. If yoh want a cream color, add three pounds of yellow ochre, or any shade may be given the whitewash by adding different paint pigments. Another good whitewash is made thus: Proceed as in second formula above, but add half a pound of whiting In addition to the zinc and salt. Dilute to proper consistency with skim milk. Apply hot. This waBh will stick well for outside work. The best way to apply whitewash Is with a spray pump. It can then be rubbed in with a brush if desired, though a good job of spraying makes an even coat. EXCELLENT AS WIRE SPLICER Neat and Strong Splice May Be Made by Use of Little Instrument Shown in Illustration. The neatest and strongest splice can be made with this little instrument.

Ii the Bpllcer is to be used for net wire, of course, the handle cannot be longer than the width of the mesh. Otherwise, six or seven inches is about right for No. 8 wire, the length of the handle should be reduced for the sake of convenience. O A R D E N a** FARM NOTES Rye may he cut for hay and used for all classes of live stock. The demand for agricultural experts far exceeds the supply. Poultry manure is particularly good for forcing the growth of onions. Stock raising is the best* insurance against an impoverished agriculture. A clover sod turned <iown makes an excellent foundation for a corn crop. Use nitrate of aoda or liquid manure for crops that are growing slowly. Whenever a farmer gets the auto fever he at once becomes a good-road preacher. "Worn-out" manure from old hotbeds is just the thing for mushroom beds in the cellar. . Keep the stables and the yards clean so that files and insects have no breeding place. To kill Canada thistle in a field, pot the field In some cultivated crop and keep the weeds down. In a corn-growing territory cow peas are mostly grown with corn, sowing broadcast and otherwise. Beg, borrow or bay all the wood ashes you can to use in the garden; work It well into the soil. If the house is damp scatter some dry ashes and alr-staksti time about They are good absorbents. If there are plants which show particular vigor save the seeds from them to be used next year. If your plants grow tall and spindly thin them out. Do not be afraid to cut—go at them courageously. Reverse ends of window bltndi or curtains when bottom becomes worn.

An interesting experience in connection \with the protection of buildings 1 roba . lightning by means joi. "lightning rods" has just come trf n> "ff / V Y In/ the southern part of the state a barn was reddedand some time last fall (probably) the >od t^TpuUed in two due to the barn being-struck. The severed lightning rod was discovered this spring and repaired and since being repaired the barn was struck again and set on fire and four pigs outside .the barn but near the rod were killed. The way in which the barn was rodded will throw some light on the cause of this. in order to protect the copper cable from mechanical injury an inch and a quarter Iron pipe was slipped over the rod and allowed to extend Into the earth six inches or a foot, the pipe not being well grounded. The agent who put the rod up stated that the copper cable was burned in two about six inches below the top of the iron pipe, supposedly by a stroke which occurred last fall, the severed condition not being found until this spring. The short piece of rod was taken out and spliced. This piece which was taken out tells the story which is of considerable interest Upon examining the broken piece It was found that the rod was not burned in two as there is no indication of any burning of wire. On the other hand the part that was in the upper six Inches of the pipe was drawn up and expanded which put a tremendous pull on the lower part of the rod, and below the break /the copper cable was reduced In diameter from seven-sixteenths to three-eighths, of an inch in diameter, which shows the tremendous pull that it took to break the cable in two. The question of why the rod was pulled in two needs to be explained. In general, most lightning strokes constitute an alternating current of high frequency and thlB current in trying to go down the cable^ induced In the iron pipe by transformer action. The two reacted on each other just as often occurs at the time of a short circuit in connection with commercial circuits. As stated before, after this was repaired the barn was struck again this spring and the discharge instead of going down the cable Inside of the pipe jumped over to the iron track from which a door was hung and went to earth another way, setting fire to the building. At the same time the discharge going down the cable at the diagonally opposite corner met with similar difficulty In going down through the iron pipe surrounding the cable and instead was deflected and killed four pigs standing near. The lesson to be learned from all tbls is Just what one would predict who is acquainted with the action of alternating currents and just the mistake that is forbidden by the underwriters In wiring a house, that it is not allowable to run a single conductor in an iron pipe. If one drives an Iron pipe down into permanently moist earth and uses that for a ground this ia usually approved, but should not be approved where the rod goes through an iron pipe which is not well grounded. VALUE OF SANDY SOILS EXPLAINED By J. A. JEFFERY, Professor of Soils, Michigan Agricultural College. At the present time considerable areas of sandy soil are being offered for sale in Michigan. These soils range from the coarser dune sands to* the finer Miami fine sands. The greater part of the soils 6JTered, for sale are properly embraced^under what is known as Miami sands. The dune sands possess little or no agricultural value. '• The Miami sands vary from soils that possess much Intrinsic agricultural value to soils that can never be profitably productive under ordinary methods of management intrinsic Value. The value of Miami sand will depend chiefly upon four things: 1. Its origin—Whether made up largely of material produced from the breaking down of granitic rocks and other rocks rich in plant food constituents, or whether made up of material chiefly silicious— pure quarts. 2. Upon the fineness of the material— The finer the material the greater Is Its water-holding capacity and the greater, also, the amounts of plant foods which it will give up for the use of the plant 3. The subsoil—The finer the subsoil the more valuable are these lands for cropping purposes. It is not an uncommon thing to find areas of these Miami sands so coarse in appearance as-to cause the observer to wonder at the excellent crops which they produce. The secret is found usually in an underlying subsoil of. clay located 18 to 90 Inches below the surface and having a depth of a few to several feet This subsoil of clay is of value that: <a) K acts as a reservoir to hold the water in the soil above, and in itself, which otherwise would disappear downward by gravity, and (b) In that when doss enough to the surface the roots of the growing orop above tad tbeir way late the day Itself, and thus procure a larger supply of plant food. 4. The distance of the water table from the surface, regardless of the kind of underlying subsoil. That is, the distance which should have to be dug or driven to secure a well. Indications of Cropping Values. The possible cropping value of these lands is Indicated by the original vegetation which they are supporting or have supported. 1. Nearly all of these sands originally covered by hard wood, such as maple, oak, beech, elm, etc., can be depended upon to produce fair to good crops. 2. Areas which originally supported good growths of white pine usually prove reasonably productive, and for some crops, such as potatoes and clover, quite productive. '' 5. Areas originally covered with Norway pines are uncertain. 4. Areas originally covered with Jack pine can rarely be depended upon for profitable crops, and never under ordinary methods of soil management. 6. Where the original forest vegetation has been removed the productiveness of these soils is indicated by the density of the growth of grass, shrubs, brakes and other plants which occupy the ground. It sometimes happenB that the prospective purchaser of wild lands may form a fair estimate of the cropping value by observing the cropB growing upon nearby cultivated areas having the same formation. GRAIN BAGGER IS CONVENIENT By H. H. MUS8ELMAN, Instructor In Farm Mechanics. A cut is presented herewith of a convenient bagger which may be easily constructed by one at all familiar with the hammer and saw. The advantage of its use will be appreciated by the man who is obliged to till bags with grain and without assistance. The bagger is designed to be hung up at any convenient place on the wall or bin whore screws, nails or spikes may be driven. The bagger may also be moved from one place to another. Another feature of the bag-holding attachment is that It will not tear the bags. In many schemes of this kind the bags are held by wire hooks, by which the bags are very likely to be torn, particularly If any considerable weight comes upon them, as for Instance when a short bag Is used, or when the bag happens to be hung rather high. In attaching the bag to the holder it Is opened and caught over the four points. The right hand still hdlding the top of the bag is brought over the knob from below, hooking one thickness of the bag over the knob. The bag is then drawn taut V^LmJR P.NESPIT "How To KEEP COO Grain Bagger, and the second thickness brought o v c Ihe knob find und^r the clamp which la closed by simply pullltng the handle to the right with the right hand. To make the clamp hold more securely the lower end may be notched slightly with a wood rasp or pocket knife. The dimensions shown In th€ cut give about the right proportion to take the bag properly. Holes are bored in the back of the bagger, one on each end, for hanging over spikes or nails driven at any convenient place, aa for instance, the front of a bin from which the grain Is to be bagged.

Concerning wheat as a horse food Shepperd of North Dakota writes; "It was with difficulty that they (the horses) were kept from getting 'off feed' and otherwise deranged in digestion, when fed this ration of pure wheat. A large proportion of the kernels were pasted through the alimentary tract unbroken, while other grains were broken but only partly digested. . . . The test demonstrated clearly that it is not advisable to use wheat alone- as a grain ration for horses, and the less expert the feeder the greater the risk." Reliable Information. The most reliable sources of information on farm questions are the experiment stations and agricultural colleges. The results of experiments performed and experiences gained by these Institutions are published In bulletin form and these are free for distribution.

Use for Cow Pass. On the sandy soils of southern Michigan the cow pea Is being much used as a green manuring crop. Peas are sown at the rate of 3 pecks per acre, about the first week In June, and the crop is plowed under from the first to the middle of September. When wheat is sown after cow peas thus plowed under, the yields of wheat are greatly increased; and when clover is seeded with the wheat the following spring, It ssldom fails to make sa ex* osileat catch.

"Master and mistress 'ad something of a row last night, I 'ear," said the butler ponderously. "You should have heard 'em," answered the parlor maid in a shocked tone. Scandalous is what I calls It!" "They tell me 'e ran out, cranked 'ia motor car and left in It." "No," said the maid, positively, "he didn't leave in his machine; I distinctly heard the mistress say be left In a huff."—London Answers. Births in the Air. The International Congress on Aerial Legislation, sitting at Geneva, Switzerland, is evolving a very detailed code of laws. One of its suggested paragraphs reads: "In the event of a birth occurring in an air craft the pilot Is to enter the event in his log book and must notify the fact to the authorities at the first place at which he descends." Got His Answer. When Oscar Wilde came to the United States to lecture on aesthetics in his highly aesthetic velvet costume— and Incidentally to prepare the public mind for the proper appreciation of Gilbert nnfl—Sullivan's "Patienoe," in which the aesthetic movement was held up to ridicule—he used to complain that America was very uninteresting since It had "no antiquities and no curiosities." But he ventured on this disparagement once too often, for In the course of his travels he uttered it to the American Girl, and she replied with the demure depravity of candid innocence that this waB not quite a fair reproach, since "we shall have the antiquities In time, and wo are already Importing the curiosities." •i Carrying It Too Far. "Scientific management, like any other good thing, may be carried to excess." The speaker was R. Marriott Thompson, the San Francisco scientific management expert. He continued, says the New York Tribune: "We scientific managers musn't go as far as Hussler went. "Hussler was the proprietor of a tremendous factory where scientific management had reduced the motions of every hand from 800 to 17. Hussler attended a very fashionable wedding one day, a wedding where the ceremony was performed by a bishop, assisted by a dean and a canon, and in the most Impressive part of the writ Hussler, overcome by his scientific management ideas, rushed up to the altar and pushed the bishop and canon rudely back, " 'Here, boys,' he said, 'one's quite enough for a little Job like this.'

Dear Sir:— Permit me to thank you tor the privilege of speaking to your readers through the columns ot your paper. No doubt they are aware of the fact that 1 save opposition for my re-nouiinatton for Congress. It remains tor the Republicans ot the 6th District to decide whether or not they care to be longer represented by a Republican who has bad several years ot legislative experience, and who has souKut at all times, ar.d under all circumstances, to extend every courtesy and kindles* possible to all UH constituents, or out who I am sure make* no claim of having had any legislative experience whatever. In a word, and in all kindness, I respectfully ask the Republicans to look up the fitness and qualifications of my Republican opponent and decide for themselves. Owing to tb« fact that Congress is still in session, I have been handicapped in making my contest, believing it to be my duty to remain in Washington during the closing hours of the 9e?sion, rat bee than to return to Michigan' to look after my contest .n the, primaries. I believe this course will be much more satisfactory to my constituents, and tor this reason, I shall all the more appreciate the efforts of my triwods in my be trail. I hope every Republican will be at primaries August 27th, using bis influence and vote for my rs-nomination which will be greatly appreciated. Sincereiy vours, 34tl "8. W.

School districts iu this vicinity may secure the use of an excellent library of fifty well selected books by paying the freight and cartage charges from Lansing and return. Educators throughout the country recognize that proper books of fiction, history, science and government compose the most essential equipmeut for the school-room and the state of Michigan is willing to help the school districts in this matter. Those in charge of the state library have arranged to make the splendid resources of that institution available for the people of the entire state and not merely for the residents of Lansing. The travelling libraries as they aze called, will be sent to any school district or other organization in the state upon the filing of an application with the state librarian, Mrs. Mary C. Spencer, Lansing, Michigan and the fulfillment of the library requirements, which involves no expense, except the paying of freight and cartage charges. These libraries may be kept from three to six months then returned and a new assortment of books secured, The libraries are made to s u i t U j E - the needs of the organization curing it. Those suited to schools are made up of books particularly adapted to young people and the fiction is of the best literature. The formation of the habif of reading the right kind of literature is the most vital part of a^ pupil's education and so the state makes it possible for every school to give its pupils the opportunity of forming that habit. of thunder. Some savage nations think it is caused by the clouds knocking together in a storm and making a spark, like two pieces of flint, with a crackling sound at the same time. Not long ago, when electricity first began to be understood, many persons believ ed that the lightning made a hole in the air as it passed along and that the rush of air to fill up j this vacuum caused the noise, just as it is caused by the air rushing into the vacuum in a big cannon. The most modern theory, based on some remarkable experiments with very fluffy cotton that was made damp, is that the intense heat of the electrical discharge instantly turns the surrounding vapor of the clouds into steam and causes an explosion as sudden and as fierce as gunpowder. It is the number and diversity of these explosions that makes the crackling sounds we hear when the thunder is close to us which would not be the case if the cause were the air rushing into a single vacuum, as that would make only one big bang just like a cannon. fc % School Days Will Soon Be Here 33 ££ School reopens Monday, September 2, Of course School Books will again be the order of the day.

BUFFINGTON PHILLIPS j111"" ^11111^1111}¾¾ iimig T[B greatest treasure In the United States, a vast sum that awaits some one's finding, is one concerning which I have sought the exact truth for the several years that 1 have followed this fad of collecting treasure-trove data. The publication of the story or stories about It may bring to light the men who can say definitely what Is what. However any man who cares to set out after It lu a business-like manner may turn himself into a multi-millionaire between Christmas and Fourth of July. This much is •certain*, somewhere on the upper reaches of the Missouri river 11« four large barges, lost In 1866, laoded to their utmost capacity with gold estimated in amount from $7,000,000 to $25,000,000. Just at the close of the civil war some rumors of the finding of gold in the Black Hills of Dakota and Montana drifted into the towns on the 3>order of civilization In the northwest. It seemsodd-to thin* that fifty years *go that region was a frontier, but there are hundreds of old Indians now living on the reservations who then were fighting braves and fifty years ago they had never seen a white man's face. In the spring of 1866 some old prospectors In the back drift from California found gold in one of the tributaries of the Missouri, said now to be the north fork of the Cheyenne. Why It is no more certain will appear. Others of thler ilk "smelled" the discovery and^a band of no more than forty •drew into the region, making a wonderful strike, the richest that has ever "been made on America soil according to all accounts. The strike was made 1n what is now called Deadmen's •Gulch, named to suit the story, but called In the old records Federation, T)wpi>»t>^ Rnd starvation Onlr-hef ~T*7 The gold was alluvial, washed down from the northers ledges, now being worked by the rich Caledonia Qaurtz Wine Company near Dead wood. The gravel banks and flats were Inexpressibly rich with it and all summer the forty men tolled feverishly, extracting *s much as they could before the winter should descend upon them, shut off their flsh, game and vegetable food supply and drive them to civilization, •where the knowledge of the vast "wealth of the Black Hills and the remainder of the auriferous region would become public property. When the ground froze and they could work no longer they cut timber and made four large barges of shallow * draft and on them laoded the gold in ^provision boxes, and mule and deer skins made Into rawhide sacks. Even then they were compelled to leave come of It behind because the barges would not carry it. The hostile Indians who had not dared attack so large a party In the mining camp with its excellent defenses and those who were apparently —on friendly terms wltfr the miners-now took a ha*nd in the game. After the hardy forty had reached the Missouri find had negotiated a portion of its distance they tied up one night, not long before Christmas. They were attacked by a large band of Indians, who massacred every living soul, sank the barges and took all their belongings except the gold, of which they did not know the value, Some accounts hold the Blackfeet responsible, others the Ogalala. How the news ever got to the world I cannot say, save as the Indians told of it and friends of the dead men traced them into the country from which they never came out. Gradually the story took form and it set the prospectors wild. They ranged the region from the Bad Lands to the Big Horn river for twenty-seven years and tf>en came the great discovery In the Black Hills, The gold left behind at the point of embarkation was finally found. OM workings which showed the vast quantities taken out -by the forty prospectors were discovered and for a few years a torrent of alluvial gold poured out of the B,lack Hills. Then the whole thins; settled down to the staid and regular quarts proposition. The Kansas CSty Star some year* ago-printed A circumstantial story stating that •-young Indian student at Hasten bed -told a -professor that his father twa* one of the braves in the massacre,, knew, where the barge* were sunk and was still living on the reter vmtfoa..

Certain British laws must be repealed before It can be recovered, however. It is in one of the out-ofway places of the world and very little Is known by the general public about it. The superstitious French fishermen, unchanged In a hundred and fifty years, still await the return of the ilerce pilot to claim his own. The Rock of Perce, named for the adjacent fishing viHage, is one of the true natural wonders of our continent. When some convulsion of nature rent the coast this rock was split from the nearby mountain and left standing, a grim monument to the caprice of the gods of sea and land. Several hundred foet high, with a comparatively fiat top, Its sides are beetling and one side is about two hundred feet higher than the other. Once it was pierced by three arches through any one of which a small ship might sail, but now one of these has collapsed, leaving only the two huge galleries. Captain Duval was a French privateer who returned only a small portion of his loot from English and other ships to the French authorities, and after the declaration o£~pe»ce be became an out-and-out pirate. He protected the French fishermen and was generouB with them. They, in their turn, protected him as the English peasant protected Dick Turpln. At last be was hard pressed by the English, and having in his service a Mlcmac Indian who knew a secret trail to the supposedly inaccessible Rock of Perce, he collected all his caches of treasure in the maritime provinces and brought them to Perce. The Indian carried a line to the top of the rock and hauled up a block and fall. Then two prisoners were hauled up, and next Duval himself.—Boats containing the great treasure chests stood bji below- The tradition is that they were a day ana a moonlight night getting it all up. Then the Indian was sent down and Duval himself was lowered away. His rapier was dripping with lose a treasure is to bury ft. It seems.

The other, are^ is in tee east, be- Sttinig at about Camden, N. J., and extending north to Albany and thenoe to Portland, Maine. In that field rived the rich Royalist and Tory families.. The sudden turning of the tide found the Tories in possession of a great quantity of gold cola, gold and silver plate and jewels, and fearing they would lose these, they burled them and then fled. Comparatively little of it was ever exhumed and the area is dotted thickly with localities where s search would be highly profitable. Of them I can mention a few only. At Sound Beach, Conn., lives Mrs. Jane Louden, 101 years of age. Her husband, knowing that on the home farm a wealthy Tory family had buried gold, hunted until he found several pots containing several thousand dollars each. A neighbor also acquired sudden wealth which he did cot explain. Every one knew there was a great Joint family cache somewhere near. It was known for many years that on Lord Edmeston's estate near West Edmeston, N, Y., his personal representative, Perdifer Carr, had buried a treasure. The property known as the Burdick Farm, having been bought by Henry F. Burdick in 1850, was the site. In 1904 a tenant named Cheeseborough plowed into a case of china and glass, breaking half of it before he realized what the obstruction was. By reason of design and .quality the remainder, however, was worth a small fortune to dealers in antiques. It was the Edmeston ware. The law suit that \ followed for possession made the case famous. Where Is the remainder of the treasure? Joel Coryell, sexton at Romulus, N. Y., digging a grave on what was a Tory estate in 1776, found a large, quantity of money in an old pot. The grave belonged to Thomas Mann, but Coryell kept the gold. Walter Butler, the notorious Mohawk Valley Tory, returned to the valley at the end of the war with a force j of Tories and Indians to dig up the treasures he had buried and those that had been buried by other wealthy Tories who had told him where to recover it in their behalf. When he had finished his work and was returning, the pursuing Colonials under Colonel Marinus wiiiet, overtooTT the treasure squad beyond Johnson's Hall on the bank of the West Canada in northern Herkimer county. The treasure was too heavy for the of tt could be reached with ,corapar» tive ease now. ,. J«St above Ptae Bluff.4rka3ssaa, Jr steamboat said ter have been the Qa^ lylAJ.

TheraU a. fascinating story about an old barfs that is buried in the Missouri sand-flat* near Port Rice, North Dakota. With it is buried silver worth more than half a million dollars. At the time when the unsuccessful prospectors were tolling, empty handed, back from the gold fields of California, a little band of men struck a rich find near what la now Virginia City. Montana. The built a rude camp and, with the poor Implements that they had, worked feverishly for many months until they had taken out all that their packs could carry across the miles of uncivilised country they must cross to the navigable rivers of the upper Missouri. Toiling across the mountains, always in danger of massacre, facing starvation, and privations, breaking roads In *the frozen fiats and blazing trails through the forests, they finally reached the river near Painted Woods, and there buflt a rude barge and loaded it to the water's edge with.the rich silvejf ore. Traveling by night, In constant fear of Indian outbreaks, they wended slowly down the partly frozen river, knowing that soon they would reach the frontier town and safety. It was in '64 and the few scattered settlements had been deserted* No Indians had | been seen for days and, taking courage1, they traveled faster and with less caution. When they were near Fort Rice they were attacked by the Indians and all of tike- little band were killed with the exception of one man, Pierre Laselle. Ignorant of the wealth aboard, the Redskins sunk the float, and Pierre* Laselle escaped to Fort Rice leaving behind him no trace of the expedition; the secret of the hardships and toil and wealth were with the river and with him. He told no one anything about It for some time—not until he had enlisted in the army and maneuvered so as to get back to be near his treasure. Then he took an old Quaker, named Richard Pope, Into his confidence and at the urgent request of the Quaker his eon was also toM the secret. —Threft mrmtha later tha Htl« partyT TO MOBILE HAS A , WING Fmech Motor Car \m Driven In U s Same Mfuioer as art-- Asropfsae. ' ! • * blood and when he reached the boat he stood up, and with a harquebus shot at the tackle till it was cut clean, too higj^ up the rocks for any one to reach. "Devil Duval" sailed away and never returned. For years the winds battered and the sun and rains rotted the ropes ut> the walls of the rock till at last they disappeared. So many lives were lost in attempts to scale the rocks and recover the treasure that a law was passed forbjflding any one to make the attempt without the necessary legalized concession from the governor oT the province of Quebec. Only the wild sea-birds, making their nests,In the top of the rock, know the story of the two prisoners and the chests of treasure on the bleak heights. But an airship could learn It Carle ton Island, in the St. Lawrence river, was an outfitting place for Tory raiding parties and an arsenal was established there. A pay chest was sent to the post with a large sum of money. The chest disappeared and its loss was reported to General Haldlmand at Montreal. In 1879, Colonel Horr of Cape S t Vincent received a visit from a strarger, who requested the use of a boat and, being granted it, be rowed to Carleton Island and returned In a short time with a heavy iron chest covered with clinging wet clay. Colonel Horr, thinking nothing wrong, helped the man row to the steamboat landing and he was never heard from again. In a few days William Majo. one of the owners of the island, sent a boy into the pine thicket for straying horses and there the lad found the flat-stone-llned hole where the chest had rested. There are two extensive areas of burled treasure in the thickly populated parts of the United States. One. the lesser, Is on the general lines of Sherman's march to the sea. North and south of )t, plantation after plantation, town after town, have their storle* of treasures ranging from a few hundreds of dollars to hundreds of thousands which were burled for /ear the Union army would get them. Many' were never reoorered because of the failure of the owners to locate *' Jkssr tears ride s>y train from New it ho burial places. The surest way to fleeing party so It was dumped In the shallows and horses were ridden through the water to make it muddy, Butler was killed, the raiders driven away and the spoils await present-day seekers. While there Is some doubt as to authenticity, there is said to be a $16,- 000,000 cache of Spanlbh doublons, burled by Captain Kidd, on Esopus Island in the Hudson river, not far from New York City, while at the very gate of New York Is a forgotten treasure of many hundreds of thousands. This famous treasure was lost when the British frigate Hesarar, a pay ship sent in for the British soldiers during the revolutionary war, went down in the East river. It will be easy to look up the old Admiralty records and get the {nil Information ttiat may lead to the finding o? t&eTreasure. The facts pertaining to Klopper Smith's horde are as follows: "Der Klopper" waa a very brutal and much feared knight of the road on the west shores of the Hudson from Nyack to the CatsklUa and he rbbbed the wealthy Dutch in an unmerciful manner. He had no opportunities for spending his Ill-gotten wealth and hoarded it somewhere. At last he was captured and before his execution at Newburg confided to a keeper who had been kind to him that he had sacks of gold and silver and Jewels buried in a spot on Storm King Mountain, just north of Cornwallon-the-Hudson, some thirty-fire miles north of New York City. No search has ever been made. Is the bey-day of Mississippi river steamboat traffic, a great deal of sunken treasure accumulated In the Ohio. Cumberland, Tennessee, Missouri. Red sad Arkansas rivers. A pay boat on its way to Grant's army at Vicksburg with more than two million dollars aboard waa fired by some of her crew who meant to rob her. The ,paymaeter* s men defended the money till the boat sank. James B. Eada, who built the Gads bridge at St Louis and the Eads jetties at the mouth of the Mis' ilssjppi, invented an apparatus by use of which be could reach some of the treasure-wrecks in shallow water and recovered several million dollars. AU well armed and well provisioned, went quietly to the spot that Laselle remembered so well, only to find that the river course had changed and a bar of sand had formed over the barge. Not dismayed, however, they dug until they found the prow of the old scow and on the very eve of success they too were attacked by the Indians and Laselle was killed! Pope and his son, too badly frightened to work again within the year, went back with the secret to the town and while there young Pope died. After many years the old Quaker took another man, named Emerson, and with the drawings that Laselle and he had ,made they went back to the place of trove and found that the sand bar had grown and that the river ran many hundreds of feet away from the spot where the fortune lay buried In glistening sands. Where Pope said the old diggings would be found a young cottonwood tree was flourishing. They spent weeks digging for many feet around the place, but found nothing. Some mistake had evidently been made in following oufTthe former instructions, but the barge was there, because Pope and Laselle found It on their first visit. Pope is dead, but Emerson is still alive and has the old drawings, letters and records. Maybe he can be induced to part with It, and maybe not, but somewhere in the flats near Fort Rice is a snug little fortune awaiting some finder. Behind the city of St. Augustine, In some likely spot another rich treasure is located. When it was a rich Spanish town, a favorite putting-ln port for the heavily laden Spanish galleons that were coming through the Straits of Florida to avoid sailing the waters made dangerous by Peter the Terrible and Sir Henry Morgan, its wealth attracted the attention of the free-booterg and word of their preparations to attack and loot the city was carried to the captain-general. For weeks the city was m a state of great perturbation- and when some English ships, probably privateers, appeared off the coast the public treasure, the church treasure and the valuables of the wealthy citizens were assembled, removed inland and hidden. For months the state of suspense con* tinned until the Spanish Admiral Quintans appeared with his fleet Then the St. Augustlaiani thought they could safety bring back their wealth. To their horror the three prominent men entrusted with the secreting of It either could not find It or pretended they could not. One fled to Spain before the anger of bis feHow<rftirens and his flight cost the lives of the other two. They were ssssssiwared as soon as the flight became known. The archives of the Spanish admiralty have full record of the affair and the true key to the treasure trove can best be found by searching the family papers of the man who fled. He never returned, but without doubt he left the valuable information to his heirs. Where millions await the finder in wilder and more uncertain spots is far mors interesting ground than the leeatttles where thousands lie under the very aoseaof the townspeople, or where the plow passes every year over the bvrJed»tsem All through, tfce west are rich mines which have found and test TEXT—BnoD Peter, a Mi-vsat and a* apoetle of Jesus Christ to U»m thai have obtained a like precious faith with us through the righteousness of Ood sad our Saviour Jesus Christ: Qraoe and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowU ed»*e ot Ood, and of Jesus our lArtL—II Peter J, 1 and 2. The single theme running all through this Second Epistle of Peter Is growth In grace or "How Christians Grow." We have only quoted two verses as our text but we want to speak of the subject as outlined in the first eleven verses. In these verses the inspired writer speaks of f o u r things concerning Christian growth. First, he speaks of Its source in verse one. What is the source of physical growth? Life. The same is true of the spiritual. Life In God through Jesus Christ. It Is this to which he refers when he speaks of them to whom he writes as having "obtained like precious faith with us In the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ." > The Christian Is one who has "obtained" something, he has not earned it or worked It out for himself, but obtained it. That which he has obtained is faith. Faith is the gift of God. The object of this faith, that on which it terminates, is "the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ" Not the righteousness which God is, but the righteousness which God gives, his imputed righteousness j by which alone a man begins to live before him. Word of God the Means. (2.) He next speaks of the means A> sucosAsful trial run was nsade recently from Paris to London^ about 320 miles, by a motor car driven by a revolving wing,- thQ J*ntt JFtgAZO •tates. ,.,r>> - The vehicle, which wsayflsaWyd tjjr M. Bertrand de X^sej>s,.a4at4sV catted the "winged car," has the ftppsjaraAep of an ordinary motorcar, sa^f-HInst in front it is shaped like tt»-prow of a ship. From the extregpty of the prow extends A shaft to which is attached the propeller—or revolving wing—Invented by M. Fllippl. The wing is small, strong and thick and revolves within a protecting cage. The engine is of 40 horse power and rotates the wing by shaft and chain transmission. There la no other mechanism, the wheels of the car being free, except for footbrakes. By the side of the driver is a single lever which controls the clutch and the forward and reverse movement of the wing. The wing can be reversed at a moment's notice, thereby forming an additional brake. In the trial runs a speed of 62 miles an hour waa obtained with 2,100 revolutions of the wing a minute. One curious feature was that the car made no dust. / * V (verse 2-4). Grace and peace aremul tlplled unto us through the knowledge of God, he says, and, indeed, he adds, "all things that pertain unto life and godliness" come in the same way. But this knowledge is not that which was obtained in the handiwork of nature, but in the revealed word. "Desire the sincere milk of the Word that ye may grow thereby." In our hearts is evil, but In the Word there are "exceeding great t and precious promises," and it is as we see and apprehend these that we desire and reach out for them. And in reaching out for them we drop these. It is what the child does when the apple falls out of his hand as he opens it to grasp the orange. (3.) The inspired penman is led farther to speak of the nature of Christian growth in verses 5-7, which he sets before us along seven different lines of development—virtue, knowledge, temperance, patience, godliness, brotherly kindness and charity or love. "Virtue" is not to be limited here to the thought of sexual chasteness, but means as~neaxly as possible In a spiritual sense what "strenuousness" has come to mean in the physical and intellectual. A Christian man, in other words, is supposed to have the courage of his convictions in witnessing to Jesus Christ In the same way "temperance" does not mean simply abstinence from intoxicating drink, but self-control in the whole of one's conduct, a life kept well in hand'for God, symmetrical! spiritually well poised, an all-around sainthood. No better illustration of this could be found than in the union of patience and godliness, which follows. The patience is not to be a mere stoical endurance, but united to and flowing from a spirit of enlightened trust in God. The true Christian indeed Is the ideal man. How sad that there are so few of them'when the provision for their creation is so aimpie and so freely offered by divine grace. (4) The result of growth in grace is three-fold (verses 8-11). First fruitfulness; second, assurance, and third, reward. If there is one thing more than another that Christians want to know it is how they may be assured of salvation. Here Is the A, B, C of it: "If ye do these things ye shall never fall." This is the way to make our calling and election sure, "to do these things." This does not mean to make our calling and election sure so far as Ood Is concerned, bat so far as ws ourselves tie concerned. Ood knows whether we art. called and elected or not and It can't be any surer as to him. But if we don't know, the wsy 10 find oat Is to do these things. When I hear a man say he believes in the Lord Jesus Christ but has no assurance of salvation, I generally feel that there is something in hit life not right and which be knows to be not right, and yet does ) not put away. Get right srtth Ood and assurance follows, •• • — ^ — , „ Christllka. If we have the same astute with Christ; the same Ufa?

"I'd—I'd have got 'em to you sooner," I faltered, swallowing, "but they've been lost a day or two—thief jptojej^bem from my rooms, you know." "How oh e%Trthi~fiTfr you ever g«t hold of them? I never expected to see those pajamas again. Oh, you must tell me all about how you managed It!"—and we moved away—"I just wish father were here!" I didn't! Dash It, It made me squirm to think of his return. As we left the pergola behind, I looked backward through its arch, and there was the chauffeur, standing In the shadows, looking after us. And long after, as we turned from the straight avenue leading through the pergola, I descried his figure, BtlU looking "Rafter us, unchanged, immovable, It was rum! But I had other things to think: of as we sat oat In the loggia—chiefly of her, herself; wtt&al, wondering gloomily what ber father would say v&en he found I had disobeyed his Injunction about not speaking to her. Presently the summons to luncheon came, and1 we went in. From up-staira came sounds indicating great hilarity on BWiftga' part, la fact we could hear him slapping bis knee and screaming. The frump looked at me anxiously. "Why, I understood he was all right again," she said aside. I shook my head dubiously. I had seen in the past day or two how rapidly . Billings' moods tttttp!.'

His nod beckoned me aside. "Gentleman sulking in his tent over here I want you to meet," he said. And I followed him to the library. A figure pacing the floor turned sharply. By Jove, It was the chauffeur, and how he did scowl at me! "Now, young mrfn," said Billings sternly, "perhaps you'll have the nerve to tell me before Mr. Lightnut himself that you were his guest on your way home from Harvard." "I certainly was!" He made the statement, chin up and eyes blazing. "I was his guest at the Kahoka Wednesday night, and he knows it." Billings looked at me and shrugged his shoulders. "Don't bother denying it, old man," he said. "It's all right." "Oh, but I say—it isn't!" I exclaimed in disgusted amaze, "Dashed impertinence, you know—never saw this fellow before the morning at the —er—boat, and day before yesterday when I—" I halted, remembering. But the fellow was shaking his finger at me. "A-a-a!" he jeered like a schoolboy. "Why don't you finish? Bet you don't know, Jack, that this paragon friend of yours was up here on the train day before yesterday." Billings stared, for he did not know. The chap grew more impudent. "Yah, see him turn red!" "By Jove!" I exclaimed, warming up, you know. "Say, Billings, who the devil is thle fellow?" And I advanced angrily—dashed annoyed, you know. Billings interposed. "My brother," he said quietly. "Yes, his brother," almost shouted the other. Then he lowered his voice at Billings' command: "And I say, you didn't tell Jack you were on the train yesterday, posing as a 'Mr. Smith,' and that you Insulted Frances." He shook off h,ts brother's hand angrily. "Oh, yes he did—sister told me about it! I knew it was you when I got to thinking abont it this morning!" He panted for breath. "I can't call you a liar, Lightnut, when you say I wasn't at your rooms, because you're a quicker hitter than I am, and—" He looked around and shrugged. "And because we are In this house. But you're an infernal hypo- { crlte, and I want Jack to know It." He laughed mockingly and faced his brother. "Ask your friend, Mr. Lightnut,' about that girl in black pajamas in his rooms!" • And he flung himself from the room with a Parthian shot: "Ask him to tell you about her as he did me. Ask him wno ItwaeV' BUflnsjs seemed to groan. "More black pajamas! *l^ie matured. I faced bin eagerly.

Then he lifted my chin and looked at me anxiously. "Are you quite .well, old man?" he asked: «B^mroherxrM»ytWng_llke^^ a s I d e .persisted gloomily- "And I love and—and we're going to be marrteoVor 1 hope so, dash i t r ^ that?

He stared, "Francis ?" Then his arm led me out. "Come along, old phap," he said with an air of coucern. "We'll get a little ice—" There was a bustle near the hall entrance, and 1 heard a commanding voice I recognized as that of Judge Billings: "Come right In, Colonel, and we will try to make you forget that little exasperation— do you know I just can't get over the idea that I've seen you somewhere and recently— Hello, Jack! Colonel Klrkland, my eldest boy, Jack—named after his mother, Johanna. Look here, Jack, has everybody on, the blithering police force gone crazy about pajamas? Most Infernal outrage—pardon me, Colonel Klrkland—three policemen wanted to arrest him on description—dragnet order, they said—for stealing a pair of silk pajamas. Even hear the like of that?" Billings' voice murmured something, and then I was dully conscious of my name being passed and of the fact that I was limply shaking a band. But I don't remember uttering a word —couldn't, by Jove, for my jolly tongue was paralyzed. Didn't know what to do; didn't know what to say, you know, for there before my eyes, recognizable and unmistakable, despite froqk coat and white choker tie, was the figure of "Foxy Grandpa." The beefy face, white mutton chop whiskers and bald head were as indelibly imprinted on my memory as the sunburn line that fenced his fiery face. And this was the frump's father, and it was for him she was scheming fo make a home! CHAPTER XXXI. The Club. I didn't go in to luncheon. Instead, I lay down up in my room, wondering what Jenkins would think when he saw. Foxy Grandpa a guest with me under this roof, aad wondering also what I ought to do, or If I should do anything. I came to the conclusion finally that I wouldn't say anything for the present, for I had about all the complication* X could carry. Presently I went down to the livingroom, Where they were all assembled, and my heart leaped as I thought 1 detected a brightening in' Frances face as I entered.

By Jove, It looked to me like what we used to call a dung beetle! And then the two cranks went out In the sun with butterfly nets, and Frances and I drifted out to our pavilion overlooking the broad sweep of the Tappan Zee. As yet, her lather had said nothing to me, but I knew that the blow might fall any moment. Only the arrival of the frump'B father had so far saved me. In the evening, the younger brother showed up at dinner, but sulked, which I thought under the circumstances was about the most considerate thing be could have done. Once during the evening, Billings, who had been talking with the professor, turned to me. "By the way, Dicky—those pajamas, you know— what did you do with them this.morning?" He and the professor whispered again; then Billings turned back. "Gray paper parcel—urn—you know?" Know? Dash It, of course I knew, but I— "Why, I have them now," came quietly from my companion, "thanks to Mr. Lightnut. He gave them to me this morning." "Gave them to you!" gasped Billings. He whispered to me: "But the rubles, you cuckoo—you didn't give her those?" Rubies? Dash it, I had to think bard to remember what had become of the rubles. But I got the Idea. "Why, the professor has those," I reminded him. "The red pajamas, you know-^-don't you remember?"

Never seemed to occur to him that the professor was a devilish busy and absent-minded old chap. Might not return them for a month. I knew that. "Oh, really, Frances?" the frunip was Baying, "How exceedingly nice of you, dear!" The • professor was occupied for the moment with a moth. "I hope I won't frighten you In them as you say your maid was frightened at you. If pajamas are unbecoming to you, why Just imagine me in them!" By Jove, I was devilish glad I was, not supposed to hear, for I.didn't want to be required to imagine It. Hut as for them being unbecoming to my darling—well, I knew she knew what I thought! Later, when the evening had shaded off and the ladies had left us, we sat in the smoking-room talking till late. I was astonished to find Foxy Grandpa devilish entertaining and clever— not a bad sort at all. He seemed to have no recollection of me at all, and therefore no grudges. I had made up my mind by this time I wasn't going to marry the frump, no matter what came or what Billings wanted, and 1 would tell him so in the morning. But whoever did marry her—and it looked like it was going to be the professor —would have some sort of compensation In Foxy Grandpa's entertaining stories of Eastern scandal. Billings' cub brother smoked in a corner of the room by himself and drank innumerable slags of whisky straight. Once I saw his father'go over to him and seem to remonstrate, hut without effect. Billings wanted bis father to try my special import of cigarettes, so I sent for Jenkins, who had arrived, to bring seme down. And when he saw Foxy Grandpa calmly sitting there by me, pulling at a straw, he almost lost ale balance. But I shook my head with oovert warning. "Ever see me before—eh?" asked the cub harshly, as he waved aside the cigarettes Jenkins extended: "Last Wednesday night—remember?" "Yes, sir," replied Jenkins, hesitatingly. Then he rolled an eye at me and corrected hljneelf hastily but firm* "No, sir; 1 don't recall ever seeing ott before, sir." Of course, I knew he had not, but the cub got up with a sour laugh. Then with a murmured gruff apology, he withdrew, saying he had a head* ache and was going to bed. And, by Jove, what a look be gave me from the door! (TO BE CONTINUED.) Too Much of a Good Thing.

Another innovation for 1912 is the Free Soil Test in charge of the Professors from the Michigan Agricultural College, who will test from 150 to liOO samples of soil free every day. And the management has added also -,' real restaurant where meal* equal to any to be obtained in the city will be possible and where the service will be first class. Bui one of the most radical of the innovations is the Progress Building in which every exhibit will be one of actual manufacturing, showing the manufacturing of goods made in the State.

His wonderful trips in Europe when he made the first owing to the high mountains to be crossed, Europe went wild over his prowess. Gaining a furlough from the army Lieut, MeBtache decided to come to America and at New Orleans he became America's first aerial mail carrier.

We all know him and recognize him as a pest, but Kansas City was first In giving him a name and separate clasiflcation. The jay walker is the person who walks or loiters in crowded streets, totally indifferent to the rights and convenience of those he comes in contact with there. In crossing from one sidewalk to another he IgnoreB the cross-walks and meanders among wagons, traction cars and automobiles with a recklessness that puts tl drivers in danger of heart failure. On, _a_crowded sidewalk he keeps to the left Instead of to the right, roughly shouldering his way through the oncoming stream of humanity. He stops to talk with acquaintances on busy corners, planting himself where he will most Interfere with the progress of the people passing by. On the narrow boardwalk In front of an excavation for a new building he leisurely surveys the operations going on behind the fence, compelling all who wish to pass to step off upon the dirty pavement. There has started in Baltimore a systematic plan to deal with street mendicantB in a practical and sensible way, says the Baltimore American. As a result of a conference a special mendicancy officer has been appointed to make a careful examination of each case and Buggest the wisest method of dealing with It. He will have aplenty to do, although streetbeggars are not as numerous as they were a few years ago. Still there are an abundance of them, surely enough to keep an officer busy. Some of these mendicantB have grown old In the business and are familiar figures on busy shopping streets. Few, if any, of them, are worthy of charity. They stay In the business because they find it the eaBieBt way to get food and drink, especially drink. The Rev. Wm. Booth, general and commander-in-chief of the Salvation Army, which he founded, died at hib home in the London suburbs. He was born at Nottingham in 1S29. The veteran Salvation Army leader wag unconscious for 48 hours previous to his death. The medical bulletins had ngt revealed the seriousness of the general's condition, which for a week past was hopeless. Twelve weeks ago General Booth underwent an operation for the removal of a cataract in his left eye. Septic poisoning set in, and from that time the patient's strength steadily declined. The general recognized that the end was near, and 0JU2. spoke of his work as being finished. T*> "*• -u Throughout the commander-inchief's illness his son, Bramwell Booth, chief of staff of the army, and Mrs. Bramweil Booth, gave their attention to him both night and day. The aged evangelist died at his residence, the Bookstone, Hadley-Wood, some eight miles from London, where he had been confined to his bed ever Since the operation. Present at the bedside when the end came were Mr. and Mrs. Bramwell Booth and their daughter and son, Adjutant Catherine' Booth and Sergeant Bernard Booth; the general's youngest daughter, Commissioner Mrs. Booth-Holberd and Commissioner Howard, Col. Kitching and Dr. Wardlaw Milne. Under the constitution of the Salvation Army the general nominates (hi.s successor;— Gen. Booth did this several years ago, placing the name in a sealed envelope, which was deposited with the Salvation Army's lawyers with instructions that it should not be opened until after his death. The generai belief among the Salvation Army ia tnat if will pruve lu be that of Bramwell Booth, who, for thirty years, has been its chief of staff. Kngitsn—roe-m-berg of the Salvation Army affe convinced that no man was more Worthy of interment in Westminster Abbey. It is not expected, however, this honor will be awarded 1o Gen. Booth by the abbey authorities. It is the general belief that the commander-in-chief's last resting place will be alongside that of his wife, who, 21 years ago, WF.S burled in Abney Parl<, Stuke Newlngton.

WALKER W, VICK One portion of the British Isles Is not likely to take much Interest in the bill for reforming the calendar which is to be Introduced into parliament, says the London Globe.

Lions Causes Near-panic at Circus. Spectators attending the "Tiger Bill" Wild West show in Allegan were thrown Into a near panic when, Instead of entering his cage as bidden a lion ran around the large tent.

VETOES BY PRESIDENT MARKED COURSE. TAFT The Expenditures Will Foot Up Over a Billion Dollars—Lsst Session's Expenditures Were $1,- 026,000,000. Another session of congress passed into history Saturday night. Despite promises of retre-nchment in public expenditures the house; in conjunction with the senate, 'managed to run up appropriations far in excess of the billion dollar mark. At the last session of congress, expenditures footed up to $1,026,000,- 000, The house leaders have not yet given out their figures, but.they claim the appropriations chargeable to them will be just a little billion. However, it may much greater total, Kept Long After M)< Congress was kept in seal long after midnight because of Senator La Follette's insistence that a vote must be taken on the Penrose campaign contribution fund resolution. It required a Quorum to adjourn in the face of an objection and this could not be secured for several hours. The situation was most unusual. The session was long on conversation. The printed record will embrace about 26,000,000 words, covering 13,000 pages. The senators and representatives who comprise the present house and senate will go down In history as the most verbose statesmen of all time. The nearest competitor was the first session of the fiftieth congress, the members of which contributed millions of words and/filled 9,GOO pages. The session also was a Tecordbreaker in the number of bills presented. Nearly 30,000 bills of various sorts were introduced. .Of this number the house contributed 26,000 and the senate the remainder.

Big issues have been debated, but without result. This was due in large part to the fact that the house and senate are antagonistic politically. Much of the time of the bouse was devoted to the consideration of tariff bills prepared.by the Democrats. Six such bills were put through the house, They were all passed by the senate, Two of them were sent to the president and vetoed. None of them reached the statute books, With the veto of the wool and steel bills the Damocrats abandoned hope of tariff revision. President Taft has set his face against revision, where revision does not conform with conclusions based on scientific inquiry in advance. Labor Legislation Failed. The house passed several bills affecting labor which failed of consideration in the senate. Chief among these is the Clayton bill providing for Jury trials in. cases of Indirect contempt, the Clayton anti-Injunction bill and the Sulzer bill proposing the creation of a department of labor.

Following this he sent to congress a memorandum, suggesting the advisability of the passage of a resolution which would declare that thiB measure was. not. considered by this government a violation of the treaty provisions regarding the canal. In discussing the British protest against the exemption of American shipping from the payment of tolls for the use of the canal, Mr. Taft says the irresistible conclusion to be drawn from It is that "although the United States owns, controli and has paid tor the canal, It is restricted by treaty from aiding ita own commerce in the way that all the other nations of the world may freely do."

Scratching And petting a sow while feeding la time well Bpent, although It may seem ridiculous to some, writes Edward B. Chalk in the Farmers' Mall and Breeze. By treatment of this kind I have In one week tamed an old sow that looked like a man-eater so I could handle her pigs. I prefer the hog cot or the Individual hog house. While the large house The Hog Cot In Sections. is convenient and has other advantages, It Is hard to keep clean, and If a contagious disease breaks out the chances are that all the herd will \ take It The bottom timbers of my hog cot are 2 by 6's, placed up eight Inches and made to lap over at the corners, where a pin holds them In place when Bet up. The top timbers are 2 by 4's, made In the same way. The dimensions of the cot are 8 by 8 feet, 6 feet high In front and 4¼ feet at the back. I find that such a house can be built for 17. It Is best to make such a house of matched lumber, but inch boards a foot wide and well battened are good, a place a guard along the wall of each \ o t , a 2 by 6 that extends outward and Is six or eight Inches above the floor. This protects the pigs from being rolled on when they are young. I have five of these cots, now and will build five more. They are easily kept dry and clean, may be moved about where wanted and when not In use for hogs may be usad to house chickens or calves.

The education of the average farmer as to the importance of good breeding in the production of horses makes slow progress. The majority —and this is not over-stating the fact *—ere not yet prepared to pay a decent price for stallion service, preferring to use scrubs • because they are cheap. Some of the states have passed stallion laws containing some excellent features. Wisconsin has a license law which prevents the preva- A "Grade" Percheron. lence and distribution of grade stallions In the state. Minnesota ha* a law framed along the lines of the Wisconsin measure. Pennsylvania and Utah have adopted similar laws and other Btates have restrictive measures under consideration. The effect of these laws is to make the owner of each non-registered stallion declare his horse a "grade." On handbills that are posters so that no one may be deceived as to his pedigree. The situation abroad Is very much better than In this country. In fact, practically no scrub, grade or nonregistered stallions are used for pub- 11s service. In the investigations of this matter carried on by Dr. A. S. Alexander of Wisconsin it was found that of all the stallions In the state, 60 per cent, were grade stallions and only 40 per cent, pure bred. Some of the specimen horses used for public service are remarkable exhibitions of wretchedly bad, rundown and diseased animals. The Illustrations are from photographs of a "Grade Hambletonian" and a "Grade Percheron," which traveled throughout the state for service. One is 13.3 hands in height and weighs 650 pounds, and-he is-not the worst In the lot, by any means. The effect of breeding from such stock Is apparent in the very low ""SWM *V A "Graded Hambletonian. grade of horses produced. Water cannot rise above its level, neither can a grade stallion raise the blood level of his progeny above that of his own veins in quality. The use of such sires, therefore, means a retrogression and a great damage to the farmers of any state. sBBBa £ Worms in Sheep and Calves aVWAKDGZLTNsX Ipvre access to alfalfa pasture in the J|*V For bxpod soys and sheets, and •jwn^for fattening .hoga a ration of (jtmpkins will give, good reenlts.

My attention has. recently been called to stomach worms on account of finding them in a bunch of young cattle. This la the first time that I have seen this worm in calves in Michigan, but it is well known that in certain parts of the south It has caused enormous losses to bovines. The losses of sheep, especially lambs, have been very serious during the past few years. I have seen as much as $1,000 of loss within sight of one farm house. This loss usually indicates Ignorance on the part of the owner as to the nature of sheep diseases. The experienced flock master does not suffer such losses, as a rule, since he knows the deadly character of this worm and plans from year to year in order to fight its ravages. The ' stomach worm, technically known as Haemonchus contortus, is a minute worm about an inch in length when mature, and derives its name, contortus, from its appearance, which suggests a very fine brown silk thread twisted about an equally fine, white thread. The brownish color has a very dire significance. It is due to blood pigments. The worm is found in enormous numbers in the sick Iamb or calf in the fourth or true stomach, which is properly called the abomasum. This stomach is the one of which the small Intestine Is a continuation. The worms may be found frequently in that portion of the small intestine attached to the fourth stomach. The diagnosis at post-mortem, then, is made by opening the true stomach and examining carefully in a good light the lining membrane of this organ. If the animal has just died, or just been killed, these worms will be found in a seething mass, in Borne cases, covering the membrane. They attach themselves, at least temporarily, to the membrane and withdraw blood. This results In an irritation of the lining of the stomach and In a depletion of the system from blood withdrawn. There may be poisons secreted, also, but this cannot be definitely stated. It is quite noticeable that when the animal has bled to death, the quantity of blood 1B quite umall.—The young lamb, which is es-- pecially susceptible to the ravages of this worm, usually stays apart from the flock and tires very easily. The appetite la impaired, and the hind limbs appear weak. Usually in the space "between the branches of the lower Jaw there Is a doughy swelling. This swelling may exist between the front legs, also, and is due to the bloodless condition of the lamb, The mucous membrane of the eye and mouth become very pale, although It is sometimes brownish in color. Lambs may cough when affected with stomach worms, but the cough is very apt to bo due to a complication due to the lung worm. The lung worm Is very apt to be found on the Bame pastures that are Infested with the stomach worm. The lung worm ia considerably larger than the stomach worm, and p-early white in color, can be found by making an incision through the lung and pressing out the contents of the affected bronchial tubes. The season Is now beginning for these worms to be serious, and we wish to call attention to the means whereby their ravages may be overcome, at least to a degree. The life history of these worms is not fully understood, but we know that they lay enormous numbers of minute eggs. The embryo or young worm hatched from these eggs Is picked up from the grass or water by the sheep or young cattle, and enter the stomach to start the lritating process which we have described. It can be readily understood that a permanent pasture, and especially one that has low, wet places in it, will be most liable to infestation. We do not see how a permanent pasture can be used for sheep or young cattle when these worms have once been introduced. The eggs undobtedly live through the winter and are ready to infest the lambs when turned out in the spring. In view of this fact* we would recommend that the farmer contemplate some method whereby he can maintain a rotation of pastures, and before turning out young stock on the spring pasture, if there is any possibility that they are affected with stomach Worms, treat them in a manner to destroy the worms before they enter the pasture. The whole idea of the treatment ta to separate the worm from the lamb or calf, and starve out the worm, which probably cannot live for more than a year in the absence of some sycb animal host. We would recommend' that the treatment be conducted as follows: Place the animals to be treated in a small enclosure free from all Utter, give them nothing but water for 24 hours; salt sprinkled with turpentfne can be kept before them all the time. The treatment may be preceded by t laxative, or not; at any rate, after lietmg for 24 hours, give them onehalf to one ounce of turpentine In from one pint to one quart of fresh iklm milk. On the following day, the animals may be given a laxative, if it hae not previously been given, and after 24 hours, they- may he removed to the peeiurev Where the atomach" worm has been a serious menace, it wMdeVtt# well fiTfftu* en havteg four peaturesj Remove in the spring, after the *bove-deeeribed treatment, to ture I. which should be free from Infestation; on July 1st, repeat the treatment, and remove to pasture II.; on November let, give another treatment, and retopve to pasture n i ^ e ^ t o a'lot'Whexe they may remain $ £ D V the following March; in March, or'as soon as possible, remove to' pasture IV., and on July 1st to pasture I. again, and so on repeating in this order. After this, the treatment should be only in the fail of the year, just before entering the pasture or enclosure for the winter. Lambs that show signs of infestation with worms aaould be removed and treated separately. Avoid stocking the pastures too heavily, keep salt before the animals all the time, and avoid low, wet pastures. Animals that die should be burned up, If possible, otherwise buried very deeply. It may be of great value to know that It is quite without danger to use infested pastures for other animals than the ruminants, such as cattle, sheep and goats. It will be perfectly safe to pasture'colts or hogs on these b^dlgr infested pastures, and where no other use can be found we would recommend this procedure. The writer will be glad to communicate with any farmers that suspect stomach worms in their stock. HOW TO ERADICATE COMMON BURDOCK By R. J. Baldwin. One of the rankest growing and most disagreeable weeds In Michigan is the common burdock (Arctium minus). It Is not a bad weed In cultivated fields and usually disappears from land on wnich a crop rotation is practised. Uncultivated places, such as old pastures, roadsides, fence corners, orchards and cut over timber lands are places which favor the growth of burdock, arjd in such places they become a very great nuisance where farm animals, especially sheep, come In contact with the burs. Simply because it is not a Common Burdock. weed to be feared in field crop* burdocks are often allowed to grow in unused corners, but they are unsightly and are liable to bo taken as an indication of lack of thrift and careless farming. The burdock is a biennial, and can be killed by -cutting—below the ground. If cut sufficiently low with a heavy mattock or spade that is about the only way to deal with them in places that are not cultivated for farm crops. The accompanying cut which is taken from Michigan Experiment Station Bulletin No. 267, shows the characteristics of the plant and seed. THE RED-HEADED .

Provisions should be made for a dust bath in every chicken house, for the problem of dealing with lice Is greatly reduced by Its presence. The objection that it creates dust is greatly overcome by its beneficial features and a closed bath with a special window in the south side and accessible by a small opening can be easily constructed which has an additional advantage in that It is comparatively free from the danger of any dirt or litter accumulating from the pen. Fine road dust, finely sifted coal ashes, etc., are very desirable materials for the dust bath, and the addition of lime, tobacco dust and patent preparations tend to make It more effective.

In the provincial charter of 1691. under which the Plymouth colony and the province of Maine were united with Massachusetts, it was provided that all trees-of the diameter of 24 jinches and upward of 12 Inches from the ground, growing upon land not heretofore granted to any private person, should be reserved to the crown for the furnishing of masts for the royal navy. Harper's Weekly observes. A surveyor general of woods was appointed to see that this provision oi the charter was carried into effect. Near the coast all white pines of suitable dimensions were marked with the "broad arrow"—three cuts through the bark with an ax, like the track of a crow. This was the king's mark. Long after the revolution had obliterated the royal authority men who had been taught in boyhood to respect the king's mark hesitated to cut such trees. In felling a tree It was necessary to "bed it" to prevent its breaking. This was done by cutting the small growth and placing small trees across the hollow, so that there Should be no strain upon one section more than upon another when the monster pine struck ground. The mast was hauled out of the woods on one Btrong sled, whether In winter or summer, and so many oxen were required that the hind pair were often choked in crossing a hollow, being hung up in their yoke by the pulling of those ahead of them. A maat hauling was a great event, and everybody within walking distance came to see it. A Word to the Wise.

Just because you have not a regulation sleeping porch don't abandon the Idea of sleeping out of doors, at least during mild weather. If you are brave enough to sleep upon an ordinary veranda, or If you live under a roof that is flat, you may have one of the new couches consisting of a wooden cot elevated about two feet from the floor and covered with stout canvas. Over this bed fits a wooden frame, whose canvas Bides may be rolled up or down and at the ends of which are windows which open and shut. Then there la the couch hammock, which is as comfortable as the best of the cots, and does not wabble uncertainly as the wouldbe sleeper prepares to get upon it, because It swing by eight Instead of four ropes. Half of these ropes extend from the top edges of a duck canopy, which has wind-breaks at both ends, and one side of the couch, and effectually screens the sleeper from drafts. For the out-of-door sleeper who cannot be bothered with anything so ponderous as a hammock couch, there la a folding hammock of twisted silk which, by a system of button claspB and loops, may be swung between two poles or trees. This hammock Is strong enough to sustain the weight of two abnormally stout r»*»n, y°t so \ small that it^aybA-carried in a band bag along with the rest of the weekend equipment. .*» lastly and is only a trifle short waist* ed. It is perfectly plain. The band of crystal beads on a Wsjtk net foundation is set about the lattice on the satin, Juet below the of the bast The chiffon over- 8, Is set over this band and confined at the waist with narrow tucks. The chiffon opens at the left, hanging straight from the waist line In front and back. A silk cord with tasseled ends Is tacked to Qfe walsi a»d tietTat the left side. This model, Bhowu in pale green, has been very successfully developed in oyster-shell white, substituting colere* embroidery for the beaded trim- ' nJ&Bv'TM embroidered band Is covj^ stffifjyth conventional figures, in Jjl^^eporo, pink, blue, lavender and pale tglben. A similar band about the bottom of tbe drapery, tacked to the under side, in very effective. The Question. This, briefly, is the burning question of the hour: Shall we take seriously to the eighteenth century revival with Its panierg, fichus and pointed bodies* or shall we continue to admire flowing draperies displaying an obviously corsetless condition and a rather dowdy and exceedingly expensive simplicity"? ~ Simplicity Is hardly thje wand for the statuesque complexities. of drapery which some, of the best people insist on hanging on their bones to grace every occasion indoors or out of them. They talk of nothing but proportion, line and harmony, and to practice what they preach, turn themselves into living pictures for, the benefit of the spectator. All this is thanks to the designs of artists who have chosen silks and satinB instead of paint and canvas as" a method of expression. Their clientele shudders at the rigid unpaintabillty of the tailormode, and falls into a llving picture scheme on every provocation. Practical Street Dresses. According to the Dry GoodB Economist, the latest charmeuse and serge dresses brought out for fall show new features In the way of fancy collars, Bashes, belts and draped effects, the last mentioned applying particularly to the charmeuse, as serges do not lend themselves to draping purposes. Pleats are partrcularly~gc*dIn sergesT however, and simulated tunics with pleats below are considered very smart. Some of the charmeuse dresses show modified panier effects beginning at each side front just above the knee, the front of the Bkirt having a panel effect, which gives long lines to the figure. In some instances the modifled panier drops well down toward the lower section of the skirt in the back, thuB giving a pointed outline. ft* PROPER CARE OF THE FEET 1 DRESSING JACKET t** Tims Spent In Bathing, the Use of Lotions and Kind Attention Well Repaid, Women who spend hours caring for their hands pay qttto attention to their feet.

Even in new houses where hardwood floors are fresh and clean, some of the rooms will look better stained. For a parquet floor there is no better finish than to first fill with a coat of white shellac and then apply wax evenly wtlh a cloth. Let the wax remain on several hours before rubbing down to a high polish with the weighted brush that comes for this purpose. With this simple finish the floors are eaBily kept bright by being rubbed with the weight once a week and being dUBted daily with an ordinary broom over which a woolen cloth 1B tied. Old floors may be stained to match the rugs so easily that one wonder why it is not often done. Purchase a package of dye the tint you want your floor, or you can get seal brown, which wilt resemble walnut when done, or light brown, which gives a handsome shade. Dissolve in boiling water as directed on the envelope and apply with a scrubbing or a whitewash brush. When perfectly dry this may be varnished. This finish may also be used on home-made furniture and on woodwork that has never been painted. Very often stains made at home are more satisfactory than those already mixed; a pound of dry color costs in the neighborhood of ten cents, and this mixed with two quarts of turpentine will give beautiful stain? of any desired color. Buret sienna mixed with turpentine and applied to the floors with a coarse brush and then wiped off with a rag before It 1B entirely dry gives a beautiful mahogany stain, and the grain of the wood shows through beautifully. Raw sienna also gives a transparent stain wtlh a fine sunny yellow or orange effect, according to how much turpentine 1B used to dilute It with. It is a good color for halls, as It does not show the print of dust so plainly as darker stains do. Prussian blue Is a powerful stain with great possibilities. Two or three tablespoons oi the dry color- will be sufficient for a« half gallon of turpentine. On a yellow pine floor it gives green and blue shades that blend with blue hangings. To keep a fine gloss on varnished floors do not wash with soapsuds, bnt sprinkle with dairy salt or coarse salt. Allow it to remain on Ave minutes and the;n sweep off with a soft broom. When you must Wash painted or varnished floors, put a little kerosene in the water. This will give a gloss. Kitchen floors should never be covered with a carpet fer dozens of reasons that all good housekeepers know. Linoleum Is an ideal covering. If it is out of the question several coats of good jjjslde paint will be 'found next best Strips of carpet and rag ruga prevent the paint wearing off and soften the uncovered floor to tired feet.—Henrietta D.

Dair^'sh^y, having arranged for a permanent home in which to forward the Dairy Industry in ali of its br^flches^and recognizing the cow as the foundation of ail th^gs Dairy, is undertaking to build an annual Exposition that will not alone prove to be a school for the farmer, but an advocate of the highest type for the more general and varied use of the products of the Dairy. To do this successfully wa must first have the attention and interest of the farmer and dairyman; next the support of the many Interests allied with and collateral branches of the industry. With this thought in mind, the management of the National Dairy Show desires to report progress made for the 1912 show to be held In Chicago, October 24 to November 2. We have assurances from the best breeders ol the different breeds of cattle that they will be with us, and for purposes of competition we have arranged a very complete classification, and by obtaining the very strongest talent for Judges, who will be selected with the eoJe purpose in view of making a ribbon at this great National Show an article of supreme value, Bottling the question of show yard supremacy each year after the herds have done battle In the fairs and shows in their- respective territories. We will make thl3 show yard the mart for highest type of selection and the place from where all matters of breeding and feeding will be demonstrated as a gulda to the old-timer and new beginner. Here is what we will have for you: Judges of National and International repute to pass upon the cattle; a Government exhibit In charge of experts that will display breeds with record of< test performance, the kind to own and the kind not to own; the test of feeds for results; the proper and Improper methods of handling the products and marketing of same; civic sanitary and hygienic requirements will be illustrated and explained by experts of National prominence. We havo prepared a splendid premium list for Dairy Products which will bring out a strong- lot of contestants with milk and eream exhibits for honors; trotter and cheese makers will enter their products tar supremacy and everything that can be developed for the benefit of the vlsftors in direct connection with the cow wUI be shown.

She Is ft healthy- eow, rarely "having alhnehts *pt body and 4dder, and you seldom see an Ayrshire cow hut that has four healthy quarters In her udder and gives, a uniform quantity of milk from each. She is a very persistent milker, giving a qniform quality well up toward calvfng, and many of them are dried off with difficulty. She is very intelligent, quick to learn and of a retentive memory, easily taught to take the same place in the atablp and, if required to change, will in a few days readily take. the new place. She is quint and pleasant to milk, not easily disturbed, and will as a rule yield her milk as readily, to. one milker as to another, and does Hot seem disturbed by any amount of noise in the stable. As a dairy cow she is particularly adapted to the production of milk for the milkman and for table use, as her medium size, vigorous appetite and easy keeping qualities make her an economical producer, while her even, uniform production makes her a reliable supply, and the richness ot 'her, milk in total solids places it above suspicion from city milk inspectors. Her milk Is particularly adapted to transportation, as It does not churn or Bour easily, and when poured baok and forth a tew timeB will readily mix the cream back into the.milk, which will not again readily separate, giving it a uniform quality until the last is sold or used. It has a go>d body, is rich looking and never looks blue. The milk itself being easily balanced with casein and butter fat, is ..a. .complete food, easily digested, nutHtlous, and is particularly adapted to children and Invalids.—Stomachs that are weak and unable to direct other milk find no trouble with Ayrshire cow's milk.

But when told that he' cootd double the profits by the use of the silo he becomes very indifferent and keeps on In the same old rut, feeding dry feed, wasting nearly half of his corn crop and doing a lot of unnecessary work. In these days of close competition, dairymen should be ready to take advantage of every opportunity to reduce the cost of production, and it will be found that it is easier, If die ting. *The wU^waafiWAsfest in the pro*bof tacreejft^daTry profits through oow taeMsWaisasai|a^otis show* _at dairy taxwsWSlfiWtap to'team latter way* when ^¾% Jstve oonvinotnjg proof to sustain a theory. 5ln Care In Spraying, , M spraying the cows, be earefol 6# taanfcs.

The results are the same; a large net profit. In the corn plant about 40 per cent, of the feeding value Is in the stalk and 60 per cent, in the ear. When the ear alone is fed, nearly half of the corn crop is wasted. Where the dry^ stalks are fed, at least half of • them remain uneaten, while if stored in the silo the loss is almost nothing.

These conditions, however, do not last very long. < The silo cornea as. near to supplying the ideal conditions as anything that can be found, and It is available every day in the year. It provides a uniform feed for every one of the twelve months. Highly sensitive dairy cowe resent any sudden or violent^ change in feed, and will show it by a decreased milk flow. The change from fall pasture to dry feed is always followed by a shrinkage in the milk. In changing from the pasture to the silage, the change is not so great, and often the cows Increase the flow of milk when started on silage. Several dairymen have recently made the statement that the lncerased profits paid for the silo the first year.

Such a soil should, if possible, b& Included In a regular rotation and the potato «rop follow a clover sod.'wWeh shou&l be'^toirned under in the fall, -or early in the Bpring. When fall plowed, the sod will partly decay by spring mnd there will'be an opportunity to work the soil several times with both disk and harrow before planting, which-is v«ry important. It has been demonstrated many times that much better crops, can 'be produced upon a soil that has had extra working than when it has not been given. Always avoid low fields where the frost may destroy the plants early in the falL^gfcee the growth has been completed'; 'v " - ^ ^ . . - t h e Se<4 - • % Whole tubers abouf the size of a hen'B egg are very satisfactory for seed, especially so in, a;.'dry? season. If such seed is not available use cut pieces about the sise of a hen's egg and have at least two good eyes on every piece. Larger seed.pieces may give a large yield but not enough to pay for the extra amdunt of seed r e quired, especially if it is expensive." If any of the seed is "scabby" even to a very slight degree, it should be treated by soaking for w o hours In a solution madetJQg* 1ft tfte proportions of one pint of ibrmairn to thirty gallons water. Formalin can be procured from any druggist. Do this shortly before planting and before the seed is cut. Do not put the treated seed back into crates or bags that held the tubers before treatment, unless the crates are washed and the bags soaked in the solution. The scab disease may live in the soil for some years, so do not plant upon land that recently grew scabby potatoes or beets if it can be avoided. Fertilizers. The best fertilizer for the potato crop is undoubtedly stable manure spread upon a clover sod before plowing in the fall. If spring plowed, Bpread the manure on during the winter or early spring. The plowed-under clover will In itself make a good fertilizer. If it is desired to use a chemical fertilizer, our experiments made during the past few years indicate that a "homgmixed" fertilizer containing i per cent nitrogen~,~7~per_cent phosphor-" ic acid, und 10.8 per cent potash used at the ratfe of 600 pounds per acre is the most satisfactory. A ton of this fertilizer is made by mixing: 193 pounds nitrate of soda containing 15.5 per cent nitrogen. 957 pounds dried blood coatainlng 1-4 per cent nitrogen. 1000, pounds phosphoric acid containing 14 per cent nitrogen. 450 pounds sulphate of potash containing 48 per cent nitrogen. 2,000 pounds "home mixed" potato fertilizer. ' It should not be overlooked that the value of a chemical fertilizer depends largely upon the physical condition of the soil, the moisture content as well as proper drainage and cultivation. Even very heavy applications of fertilizers will not make up for the lack of any of these conditions nor will the use of any kind ot chemical fertilizer take the place of the humus or decayed matter in the soil. Planting. When the planing is done by hand, furrows may be opened with team and one horse plow and if any chemical fertilizer Is to be used it can be spread in the furrow by hand. On light or loose soils it Is desirable to plant the seed about four to six Inches deep. If shallow planted some of the potatoes will become exposed and sun burn. The seed pieces are dropped the distance desired, covered with a hoe, and the whole field smoothed over with a harrow. It would be profitable to use machine planters upon large acreages (over ten acres) and with these a fertiliser attachment is often used to distribute the fertilizer. If the planter is not equipped with such an attachment the fertilizer may be drilled in with an ordinary drill before the field is planted, or can be spread by hand. The distance for planting depends upon the fertility of the soil, but rows three feet apart and from IS to 24 lnobes In the row haa given good results on an average eoil. With laten* slve cultivation ind a rich soil, they may be planted-ks 'dose as one foot In the rows. Cultlvstlon. Frequent cultivation will greatly help to produce a good crop and keep the field free from weeds. A spike tooth harrow is'usually used Once or twice before the plants come up and again Just as they appear. A weeder ia often used at this time and about once a week afterward until the plants are several inches high. During this time It may* be. advisable to go over the field once or twice -with a cultivator. After the plants are/five) or six inches high cultivate about once a week or every ten days until there is danger of injury to tke .vines, gpfsying. Potato plants are sprayed with bordeaux mixture ( t pounds of copper sulphate, 6 pounds of atone Jime and 60 gallon* of water) to protect them from blight and rot (Phytophthora tnfestans) and with poison (% pound of parts green or 2 or ) pounds of eraesata ei lead added Jft-tha, borteaoa) te> kUl bogs.

The application of bordeaux mixture In eome way stimulates the plant and. it grows longer in the fall, a freer from sun scald, tip burn and otbertroubfes. Begin spraying when the plants are six or eight inches high or when the first spraying for "bugs" has to he made and repeat the treatment about every two weeks so that the new growth will be covered with the bordeaux mixture. If the weather is "muggy," conditions under which blight flourishes, spray oftener. Four or five sprayings will usually be sufficient and tbey can be inade' for 80 'cents to fl.OO per acre for each spraying, all expenses of material and labor included. Winter V e t c h for a Cover Crop in Michigan Orchard*. By R J. EUSTACE, Hwtfeefeurtot. M k h i m Acricufoml C*lk«« f i ,•' , l l •' ..J Most of the successful orchards la Michigan aTe* plowed* In the spring and cultivated until mid-summer. This season is the natural one for trees to make a growth of new wood and the plowing aud cultivating make the plant food in the soil available and stimulate the growth. After the cultivation ceases, the new growth will ripen, become hard and in a condition to pass through the average winter without injury, which It could not do If growth continued late in the fall. At the last cultivation, It Is desirable to EOW something that will make a "cover crop" on the land during the fall, winter, and early part of the spring. If nothing is sown, weeds will make a "cover," but they will not make a uniform, growth nor will they result in any benefit to the land and they may become a serious annoyance. Many desirable features will result "from having a cover crop in an orchard or vineyard, some of the more important ones are: 1. Their growth helps to check the tree growth and ripen the new wood. 2. A cover of vegetable growth over the soil, supplemented by the root system will prevent, to a very large extent, the washing of the valuable top soil by the heavy fall and spring rains. This feature is especially valuable on knolls and hillsides. 3. A cover crop will catch and hold the leaveB as they fall from the trees. They contain some fertility and afford some protection. —fc—The cover crop Itself will make a blanket over the soil and by holding the snow from blowing away, this fea^ ture will be more effective, aB It will largely prevent deep and severe freezing of the roots and the alternate freezing and thawing, all of which causes serious losses in many Michigan orchards* especially those located upon the lighter and more porous soils. 5. One of the most valuable results from the use of cover crops Is that they add humus and plant food to the soil. Certain plants commonly used for cover crops as clover, vetches, peaB and beans, possess the power of gathering nitrogen from the air, storing it in the plants and later It becomes available in the soil. Some of the advantages of the cover crop that might be mentioned are: That they encourage the deep rooting of trees; they make the fall and spring operations in the orchard more comfortable and they improve the physical condition of the soil. A plant suitable for an orchard or vineyard "cover crop" must meet some unusual demands. It must make at least a fair growth during late summer and fall; It must be able to stand the tramping necessary at picking time; it must be able to withstand a possible drought; in most cases In Michigan, it must live over winter and grow vigorously in the spring; it must be hardy and it should have the power to gather nitrogen from the air and hold it In the roots. The experiment station has been carrying on tests in orchards aud vineyards in different parts of the state to determine the best plant for a cover crop under Michigan conditions. At this time, winter vetch (Vlcia villosa) promises to be especially valuable for this purpose. The plant is sometimes called Hairy or Sand Vetch. It was imported from Europe many years ago and has long been used In the southern states especially as a forage crop. An appreciation of its value for orchard cover crop purposes is comparatively recent When sown as late as the middle of August, it makes a fair growth before winter, it will stand tramping well; It is not dlflVmlt to get suited; it is hardy and will withstand the possible drought of fail and cold of winter; It grows vigorously, in the early spring; it adds a large amount of nitrogen to the soil; it will succeed on a variety of soils and especially on sandy soil. •For cover crop sorposea in Michigan, the seed should be sown during July or early August, usually at the time of the last harrowing. If the seed is sown broadcast about 2& to 30 pounds to the acre is required and it should be harrowed In. Good results have been secured by drilling 18 pound* of seed per acre. y A quick growth or 'catch crop" can be secured Dy sowing a. bushel at oa*t or rye with the vetch. Since the vetch does not make a large growth in the fall, this combination is often desirable. There will not be any difficulty in turning under the vetch if the orchards are plowed at the proper time la the spring, : Wfeese the growth la eatra large, a chain otrolllag coulter may have to be used on tke plow. ,-kv A Picture of Contentment AH men look pleased wheri they smoke this choice tobacco—for all men like the rich quality and true, natural flavor of -¾ * *U Smoked in pipes by thousands of men—everywhere known to cigarette smokers as the makings."

Prop, Apparatus Devised by a Frenchman Removes Danger of Contagion and Doesn't Damage Paper. The danger from contagion from books that have been in the hands of persons suffering from various diseases has led to the Invention of various methods of disinfection, of which none appears to be more effective than an apparatus devised by Marsoulan of Paris. His process embraces two parts. In the first place, the books are placed in a, "beater" where a strong current of air opens every leaf and an aspirator sucks out the dust and deposits it in aseptic water; then they are suspended in a dislnfector, the covers being bent back and held by clips so that the leaves are widely opened and placed over a heater which for a time subjects them to a temperature of 167 degrees Fahrenheit The paper Is not damaged, and the efficiency of the process Is said to. have been demonstrated beyond question*—Harper's Weekly. whose sight, unweakened by civilized life and trained by constant exercise Of "long sight," will often nearly double the averages given. So, too, the clearer air of the elevated -.prairies and table lands .certainly doubles the power of the human eye. —Joe Chappie's News Letter.

Guaranteed by W, E. Brown the druggist.' Little Brown Brother* Have Safeguarded Themselves Against Destruction of Forests. Just at the time when this country is beginning to struggle with the problem of husbanding its forest resources, of protecting its mountain slopes, and of improving the waterways, it is interesting to know that the Japanese have successfully attacked the same problem, before the land, suffered severely from the evil effects following deforestation. The far-sighted people of Nippon have foreseen the results of the destruction of their extensive mountain forest*, and have safeguarded themselves by placing all of these under government ^control. The. practice of forestry has been carried on in Japan for a longer time than in any other country. For 1,200 years the people of Japan have been planting and growing forests, with a success that has been a little short of marvelous. "Under careful management, the Japanese forests yield very high financial returns. This high yield is only made possible by the close utilisation *t .every Ml of the tree so that scarcely a twig is wasted, and by the improvement of the growth of their forests by carefully conducted thinning and tending. The woods are first thinned at the age of thirteen years, and then every five years after that up to the time of the final harvest, at 120 years.

The lending of money Is one of the vital factors In business, which Is largely done on credit Dut the lending of money Individually, without security, without interest, just as a personal accommodation between friends, is one of the most unbusinesslike and demoralizing of practices. At first these loans are repaid conscientiously, says the Washington Staf. Then the time goes by and the borrower is slow about refunding. After a while he growB accustomed to asking', loses his shame, gets callous to the thought of non-payment and thus drifts into the habit of petty borrowing. Now it is perhaps a quarter or' a half dollar, or some other trifling sum that the lender would be perfectly willing to give in a good cause to meet a real emergency, without hope of return. But there Is always the suspicion that the money is not really needed, save for some self-Indulgence. The average man will hesitate about giving in this way when he feels that the money is going for drink, and that 1B why organised charity has come to be so generally supported in these times. In New England, New Jersey and some other thickly settled sections of the eastern part of the United States what are known as farm colonies are multiplying. These agricultural colonies are generally made up of foreign- born peoples who come from the same district in Italy, Russia or Hungary. Farming areas of 1,000, 2,000 and sometlmes__ai0J)Q .acres are purchased and divided up into ten and twenty acre allotments. On each of these small farms a family settles and engages In the growing of fruits and garden vegetables for the supply of the larger eastern cities, says the Baltimore American. Many abandoned New England farms are thus being restored to productive usage. Qufte recently a 1,000-acre tract of land in Cecil county, located along the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal, near Chesapeake City, has been purchased for a Polish farm colony. This land 1B to be cut up into, ten-acre allotments, or into about one hundred small farms, upon which as many families will locate. The colony, It will be observed, is about midway between Baltimore and Philadelphia, and is in easy communication with both cities by water route, as well as by rail. Maryland haB inviting inducements for many such colonies. In southern Maryland large areas suitable for cutting into small farms may be obtained at comparatively low cost This land, In most instances, is splendidly adapted to the growing of fruits and vegetables. The soil is of far better average quality than the sandy soil of New Jersey. Upon ten acres of land farmed intensively not only a living can be made, but ultimate affluence may bo attained. A woman In Philadelphia is being sued for breach of promise, her loss being appraised at $5,000. When it is known that she is an exceptionally good cook, particularly of the dishes so loved of the Fatherland, it is not to be wondered J}t. that the Jilted one's anguish is not to be assuaged at a lower figure fax these times when good cooks are So expensive, not to say hard to keep. *&.

STATE RETURNS SHOW ORAND RAPIDS CANDIDATE NOMINATED FOR OOVERNOR. LATEST FrOURES INCREASE HIS LEAD OVER MARTINDALE. Lucking, for Senator, and Hill, for Congressman-at-Large, Winners —Dodds Decisively Defeated. Friday, Aug. 30. With complete or partial returns from seventy-three counties in Michigan the plurality of Amos S. Musselman over F. C. Martlndaie for the republican nomination for governor is 4,000. Of the ten missing counties, four are In the upper peninsula— Alger, Iron, Ontonagon and Luce—in all of which Martlndaie Is likely to run ahead of his Grand Rapids op. ponefit, and six are in the lower peninsula. The latter are Allegan and St. Joseph, both populous counties which may be counted on to go for Musselman, and Montmorency, Otsego, Oscoda and Roscommon, all small counties where Martindale's chances may reasonably be considered the best. The returns from many of the counties which have been heard from are incomplete, and it will in all likehood take full returns irom these to show who is the winner. As it stands now, Musselman, being In the lead, has apparently the best of it, but so small is his margin that a few changes in these Incomplete counties may turn the tide. The largest two counties In the state —Wayne, which is Martindale's home, and Kent, which is Musselraan's own bailiwick—are all In, so that no radical changes may be looked for, hut a number of small ones may reverse the present situation, For the Progressive nomination for congressman-at-large W. H. Hill, of Detroit, seems to have won over Julius B. Kirby, of Saginaw, though the figures so far reported are scattering. Alfred Lucking led George P. Hummer practically everywhere for the democratic endorsement for United States senator, though Hummer carried a few counties in the western portion of the state., Of the contests for congressional nominations, practically the only one still in doubt is the Tenth district, where Geo. A. Loud contested for a renomination with bis ancient enemy, Frank Buell. The Tenth is the largest district in the state and contains more "backwoods'* counties than any other, and the returns are slow coming in. Of those counties so far heard from the figures are too close to say who has won, and it will take the full figures for the district to decide. RESULTS IN STATE. Congressman- Governor, ut-large.

Sobered by the embarrassments oi Saturday's all-night session of filibusters and disagreements, congress adjusted its differences Monday, invited President Taft up to the capitol once more and at 4.*ao o'clock Monday afternoon wrote "iinib" after the proceedings of the second Session of the sixty-second congress. of the waterway, the eeBBion ha* been devoid of constructive legislation on a large scale. ,. Big issues have been debated, but without result. This was due in large part' to the fact that the house and senate are antagonistic politically. Much of the time of the house was devoted to the consideration of tariff bills prepared by the Democrats. Six such bills were put through the house. They were all passed by the senate. Two of them were sent to the president and vetoed. None of them reached the statute books. With the veto of the wool and steel bills the Damocrats abandoned hope of tariff revision. President Taft has set hie face against revision, where revision does not conform with conclusions based on scientific inquiry in advance. Labor Legislation Failed. The house passed several bills affecting labor which failed of consideration in the senate. Chief among these is the Clayton bill providing for jury trials in cases of indirect contempt, the Clayton anti-injunction bill and the Sulzer bill proposing the creation of a department of labor. The session was prolific of vetoes by the president. , He wrote his disapproval on at least 11 bills including the wool and steel tariff bills and the legislative bill which was vetoed twice. With an agreement reached ending the filibuster on the general deficiency bill, Senator La Polletter's determination to have a record vote on the Penrose campaign fund probe resolution is the only thing that is preventing the adjournment of congress. So far as any actual chance of getting away is concerned, however, the situation is almost as uncertain as it was late Sunday morning, when the session, which had been Expected to end the present sitting of congress, broke up In disgust and without action. The filibuster that was ended Monday morning was the one started by Senator Chamberlain, of Oregon, to insist on the payment of over $600,- 000 in claims to various states. The house had refused to allow the claims, and prepared ta fight all summer. After repeated conferences senate leaders announced an understandtog by which the senate was to recede from its demand for the Immediate payment of - the oontested "state claims," hut providing that the claim* be included in the nest gen-' eral deficiency bill. • - .

Despite promises of retrenchment in public expenditures the house, in conjunction with the senate, managed to run up appropriations far in excess of the billion dollar mark. At the laBt session of congress, expenditures footed up to $1,026,000,- 000. The house leaders have not yet given out their figures, but they claim the appropriations chargeable to them will be just a little over a billion. However, it may reach a much greater total. The session was long on conversation. The printed record will embrace about 26,000,000 words, covering 13,000 pages. The senators and representatives who comprise the present house and senate will go down in history as the most veTbose statesmen of all time. The nearest competitor was the first session of the fiftieth congress, the members of which contributed millions of words and filled 9,600 pages. The session alBO was a recordbreaker in the number of bills presented. Nearly 36,000 bills of various sorts were introduced. Of this number the house contributed 26,000 and, the senate the remainder.

Not Necessary to Leave Home. In an effort to stop the migration of dying consumptives to the Southwest, the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis will ask physicians to be more careful In ordering patients to go away, and will also ask railroads to discontinue their practice of selling "charity" tickets to those who cannot afford to pay full fare. "No consumptive should go to Colorado, California, or the West for his health," says the association, "unless he has a good chance for recovery from his disease, and unless especially he has at least $1,000 to spend for this purpose, over and ahove what his family may need. "Tuberculosis can be cured in any part of the United States, and it is not necessary for a tuberculosis patient to go West Whenever possible, the National Association urges tuberculosis patients who have not ample funds to go to a sanatorium near home, and if they cannot do this,' tp take the cure in their homes, under the direction of a physician."

The latter ignores the boy. who then threatens to thrash him for offending Frances. Ligntanut takes the next train home. Billings and Lightnut discover mysterious Chinese characters on the pajamas. P r e s - sor Doozenberry is called in to interpret the hieroglyphics. He raves over what he calls the lost silk of 81-Llng-Chi. The writing declares that a person wearing the pajamas wm~tafte-Tcm-the semblance of the previous wearer. The professor borrows the pajamas for experiment. "Billings" dressed in pajamas is found In rtbe professor's room and is taken home In an automobile with Frances and a woman Ughtnut calls "the frump."

Judge Billings astonishes Ughtnut with a tale of Francis' escapades. Lightnut asks permission to speak to '^Frances." The Judge declares that not another living person would tackle the Job. and Lightnut, his mind occupied with the beautiful Frances, is greatly mystified. Policeman O'Keefe returns the black pajamas and Lightnut sends them to Billings' room. Lightnut has an Interesting hour with Frances.

Later Lightnut meets Colonel Klrkland, who is the Image of "Foxy Grandpa," Professor Doozenberry clesr* nn the various entanglements by explaining the secret of the haunted pajamas. CHAPTER XXXI—(Continued). "Midnight!" ejaculated some one at length? Just as the professor finished a jolly rum but Interesting yarn of adventure In Tibet. We all rose and I was answering a challenge ot Billings' for a Sunday morning game or bUliarda, when all of a sudden a /cream rang out from somewhere above. Then came a greater commotion— two voices raised in rapid and excited colloquy. On top of this another scream, louder and more pierc ing—a woman's call for help. "One of the maids," Billing* hazarded. "A mouse—" "That was Frances!" I answered him excitedly, and we* all piled out In- &r FRANCIS PERIST ELLIOTT "Come on back, dearest!" he pleaded. "You have been dreaming." And under the light of a great rati cluster of grapes, pendent from the mouth of a grinning Bacchus, I recognized with horror the yellow mat of hair and freckled face of Billings' cub brother. On the Instant, with a bulllike roar, Billings sprang forward, hut I was quicker still. But fleeter than either of us to reach the scene were the two elderly men, together with Miss Warfleld, the housekeeper, and a couple of maids. Frances darted like a bird to Foxy Grandpa, and then the figures of the women shut her from view. Billings and I had paused, half-way to the landing. It looked as though the elder Billings was amply capable of handling the occasion now. He had backed the youth against the wall behind, and his language -was of a kins' I hated to have my darling hear Every time the other offered to ex postulate, his father broke out again. . "You are a disgrace. J o an honored name!" he roared. "And the only explanation left for me to offer our guests is that you are drunk and don't know where you are!" "Oh, father!" faltered the boy. And then he turned hie black shrouded figure td the pale marble against which he leaned and seemed to me his very heart would sob away. "What'8 the matter, dad?" came a voice from the head of the stairway. "Hyhat In thunder is all the row about?" "By George!" gasped Billings. Everybody looked upward—one of the women screamed. For there, slowly advancing down the angle leading to the landing, his yellow mop of hair Bhinlng above the dark collar of a dressing-robe, was the duplicate of the youth cowering under the elder Billings' wrath. And out of a dead, tense silence, came his volee again: art—anr—of-Tou-epeak^—Hetouched the figure on the shoulder. "Who are you?" be asked In an odd, strained voice. The black figure turned toward him a face agonized in grief. "I—I don't know," came a voice pltl. fully—his voice, It seemed. The cub just stood like a statue for a moment—stood as we all stood. Then slowly bis hand went out and touched the hand of his double. Slowly his fingers swept the face, the hair; gradually his eyes closed, as though he were sensing by touch alone. Suddenly a loud cry leaped from bis throat "Sister!" he shouted. And he swept the black figure to him. Then, tossing back his bead, the youth faced us with blazing, angry eyes, looking as David must have, when he faced old what's-hls-namo. "If there's a man among you, I'd like to know what this means?" he cried. There was a blank silence for an Instant, and then— "Perhaps I can explain," said a voice. And up the stairway advanced Pro^ feasor Doozenberry. Up t*a.

In the Glow of the Rubies. Evening had come again. In fact, it was almost bedtime. Frances and I sat before the hearth In the library, looking silently Into the red heart of the dying embers of fragrant pine cones. For in the heights of the Poeantico Hills it often is chilly on summer nights. My darling sat on a low fauteuil, her chin resting upon her hand, her beautiful eyes fixed dreamily, inscrutably, upon the fading coals. In her lap lay the spread of the crimson pajamas. She was thinking—thinking—I wondered what! And I was thinking bow jolly rum it, all was) that Francis, wasn't Frances, that the professor wasn't Billings, Colonel Francis Klrkland wasn't Foxy Grandpa and wasn't the frump's father after all; and that the frump, hafseif-^bieaa her, Mr. name was EliaaJJeth—wasn't Frances, and/, wasn't a frump at all, but Jast a Jolly, nice, homely old dear, yon know. And I was trying to catch and hold some of the deuced queer things the professor had discoursed upon about ancient Occidental what's>lts-name, and astral bodies, obsession, psychical resarea sad all that sort of thing. Somehow, daeft It, ft had all seemed devilish- unreasonable and Improbable to ma— oouldnJt gat hold of ft, yon know, but as everybody else had said "As-frar and had wagged their beada as though they understood, X just said: "Dash It, of course, yon k n i w r and ,*W!»^»»J^rTd»»»^S^pA»*i^^^PSw -S4SSJBW1B> ^SjSBSHBjlgss grip on my monocle.

Through the French windows from the open loggia came the eager, pitched tones of the professor and the frump—no, Elizabeth, I mean—discussing Aldetoeran and Betelguese, dead suns, star clusters and the nebular hypothesis. Within the room Billings had snapped out the lights, to bring out the biasing fire of his treasured ruby, and from the tray in the dark corner where he was closing it in his collection vault, it gleamed like the end of a bright cigar. The other four were absently clutched in my darling's hand and the crimson shine gleamed bravely through her finger bars. "Carbuncles—ancient carbuncles," the professor had called them, "that the Chinese believed their dragons carried in their mouths, in their black caves in days of eld, to furnish light whereby they could see to devour their victims." And that I believed, for I could see some practical sense about it! "What I should like to know," said the dear, precious cub, bugging his knee by the mantel, "is where I come in!" "You don't come in," said Billings, lifting him playfully by the ear; "you come out!" And out they went. And my dear girl and I were like what's-bls-name's picture—alone at last, you know. She stirred softly and her sigh came like the wind through the trees at night. "I suppose we will have to burn them," she said dolefully; "the professor says it is the only thing to do." "Jolly shame, I say!" I murmured indignantly. "It seems a crime," she said softly, and there was a little choke in her voice. She slipped to the soft-nbered rug before the fire. I gently brought my chair closer to her. For a moment she pressed her cheek against the crimson mass, then kneeling forward, laid it gently on the glowing coals. There was a flash, a lightning blaze of red that almost blinded us, and then for a brief space a field of shining ash. Against this the tiny serpent frogs writhed and care—I Just love you, because—" She paused. "Because they brought us together?" By Jove, I didn't know I had said it, till it came out! An instant, and then I caught it— Just a lltie whisper, you know: "Yes—Dicky I" By Jove! And then, dash it, my monocle dropped! But 1 let it go. Presently she looked at the glowing rubies in her band. «. TThey are from India, you know, Dicky—from Mandalay, the professor said." And she murmured: "'On the road to Mandalay, where the old flotilla lay*—don't you remember? I'va been there, Dicky." "By Jove!" I said. "Have you, though? Is It jolly?" "The poet seemed to think so—" She laughed. "Do you know Kipling. Dkfty?" I tried to think, but dashed if i could remember. I wandered If It would be a good place to take a trip to! f hitched closer. "What does—er— this poet chap say about It? What's It like, you know?" She laughed. "I'm afraid It's wicked, Dicky, a good deal like the haunted pajamas." She leaned forward, chin upon her hand agahv, looking into the fading coals. "I'll tell you what he says." Then her voice went on: "8hlp me somewhere east of Suez," where the best is like the worst, Where there arn't no Ten Commandments an' a man can raise a thirst.' "By Jove!" I said, interested. "For the temple bells are callin', and It's there that I would b e - By the-old Moulmeln pagoda, lookln' lazy at tho sea." — — FOODS WHICH CONTAIN SUGAR A W F U L . Vegetables^ Grains and Frvlts Yield •m $*sWeB*e Eat-Must Be Vv TllVeH Cooksd. ''* Fruits, aTitaja, and vegetables con* tain the sugar*;'w» eat. Fruit sugars are directly absorbed into the system without previous preparation by the digestive juices of th* Intestines, and are almost the only food eaten by man of which this can he said. The sugars found in cane, beets and the maple tree must under go the digestive process before they can be absorbed by the body. Grains contain the sugar in the form of starch. This sugar can only be developed by thorough cooking or partially digesting starch, which is found in the form of small granules incased in a woody covering; when thoroughly cooked the granules burst this covering and can be reached by the saliva and good digestion is assured Tha* starches, we have fqund, are th* most abundant cf ,all food elements and are largely contained in seeds and plants. All of our cereals, breakfast foodB, breads, legumes, etc., are about three-quarters' starch, therefore we can realize now important It ia to- cook them well. A form of sugar called "dextrine" is developed in well cooked or partially digested starch, and scientists tell us there are twenty-five changea In dextrine between raw starch and digested or fruit sugar. The sugar In vegetables appears also in the form of starch, in small quantities compared to that found In cereals. Most of them are made more digestible by cooking, The exception is green corn, which contains almost twenty per cent, of sugar in the place of starch, and therefore should be cooked a very short time. I brought my hand down on my knee. "Oh, I say, you know—er—Frances," I exclaimed wltb enthusiasm, "we'll go there ior our honeymoon, by Jove! Shall we—eh?" And then the Jolly rubles rolled un- NEW PAPER CUPS FOR JELLY Little Vessels That Will Be Hailed With Delight by the Modern Housekeeper. The new paper sanitary tumblers which have just come out ought to be hailed with delight by the modern housekeeper especially at preserving times. These little vessels are made from spruce pulp. They are treated with aseptic qualities at the mill before being packed in cartons and shipped to the various stores and~tn these cartons sold to the housekeeper, so the only thing she has to do is to break the seal and the jelly jars are ready for use. They are so inexpensive that they may easily be thrown away at the end of the winter season, sayB the Philadelphia Times. Each tumbler Is treated with a wax process which enables the Jelly to Blip out as easily as from a glass jar. Little round lids come for covering the vessels and slip Into a Bmall groove at the top. The hot liquor can be poured directly into these paper tumblers. Cherry Pudding. Use old china cups or metal musturd cups.

ECZEMA IN RED BLOTCHES 205 Kanter Ave., Detroit, Mich.— "Some time last summer I was taken with eczema. It began In my hair first with red blotches, then scaly, spreading to my face. The blotches were red on my face, dry and scaly, not large; on my scalp they were larger, some scabby. Tbey came on my bands. The inside of my hands were all little lumps as though full of shot about one-sixteenth of an inch under the skin. Then they went to the outside and between and all ovar my fingers- It also began on the bottoms of my feet and the calves of my legs, and itch, oh, my! I never had anything like it and hope I never will again. The Itching was terrible. My hands got so I could scarcely work. "I tried different eczema ointmenta but without results.

In 1876, under the pastorate of Elder Hagadorn she united with the Methodist Episcopal church at Pinokney and remained faithful to that church until the end. She led an ideal christian life, ministering to the sick and dying and bringing good cheer to both young and old wherever she went. When her own great trial came upon her she showed great fortitude and courage, the qualities which had been a stay to others sustained her. Her life was an example for all to follow.

The South Lyon lads outhit the locals securing 7 hits to their 2. The four fast double plays engineered by Murphy, Reason, Kennedy, Lavey and VanHorn checked the visitors attempts at scoring- Cook* who caught for Pinckney made a good showing in his first attempt behind the bat.

Briefly stated, he wishes to provide snipe with a "sixth sense," represented by an apparatus that will send oat vibrations and record minutely tfee "echoes" caused by them if they strike against any hard object near the ship — an iceberg, for example. Sir Hiram got hU idea of this sixth isenae from the bat, which, according Jta him and other scientists, possesses auch a sense, and is able by means of It to find its way about in the dark with perfect ease. •the Inventor explains his invention i n a pamphlet just published by him in London. "The wreck of the Tttantlc waa a severe and painful shock to us -all/*,he writes. "I asked myself: 'Has aofeace reached the end of Its tether? Is there no possible means of avoiding such a deplorable loss of life and property?' At the end of four hours If. occurred to me that ships could be provided with what might be apjproprtately called a sixth sense, that would detect large objects in their -Immediate vicinity without the aid of a searchlight." Then Sir Hiram set to work to study the bat's peculiar possession i n an endeavor to apply it to preventing marine collisions, and soon hit opon the idea which he now makes jptiblic. Before describing the new JCaxlm apparatus it is well to set <down what he has to say about that which Inspired it, the sixth sense of 4as bat. 'TSVery naturalist that has either -experimented on bats or writes on rthe subject," he says, "seems to admit that the extraordinary appendages attached to the bat's face are organs of perception more or less allied to the sense of feeling, but not one of them, so far as I can learn, ever suggested that these organs tor the purpose of receiving the echo Srom the vibrations of the wings. 1 think I was the first to discover this. The inventor goes on to show that t a o wings of the bat are extremely awo&Ulve and very well provided with nerves, which is also true of the various organs of the bat's face. These serve*, he maintains, are Intimately connected with each other and with ^he brain. Thus a bat, flying about 'In total darkness, seers out, by /Aeons of its wings, a series of pulsa- ;tions or wave-like sound waves, but Yfoo low to be considered a sound. ffeese waves, striking against all surrounding objects, are reflected •jack to their source, Just as sound and tight are, and these reflections ot the vibrations, being received by the sensitive organs on the__face °* the bat, enable it to judge the distance to any object by the lapse of time between the sending out and the receiving of the waves. Coming, then, to his collision-preventer, Sir Hiram says: "Suppose now that wo construct an apparatus that will produce atmospheric vibrations of about the same frequency as those produced by the Int. tut instead of using the infinitesimal amount of energy employed t>y the bat, we use 200 or 300-horse- 90WCC—that la, we send out waves that have an amplitude and energy at least 300,000 times as great as those sent out by the bat These vibration*, although of great energy, will not be audible to our ears, but they shake up and agitate light objects for a considerable distance, and will travel at least SO miles, 10 that they could be received and recorded by a suitable apparatus at that distance, and would be able to travel at least five miles and sand back to the ship a reflected echo that would be strong enough to be detected." Sir Hiram point out that In providing a ship with a "sixth sense," three distinct devices must be combined: one for producing and sending out the necessary sound waves, one for receiving the reflected waves and making them audible by ringing bells and another apparatus for recording the amplitude of the waves. Here is his description of the apparatus he has Invented: "For producing the vibrations of waves I prefer to use a modified form of siren, the disk being rotated at a suitable speed by a motor of some kind, preferably an electric motor. I t great amplitude and power they are able to travel over great distances, and when they come In contact with a body the waves are reflected back to the ship In the same manner that sound would be reflected back, but this echo would not be audible to the human ear. "I therefore provide an apparatus which might be considered as an artificial ear. It is provided with a large diaphragm tightly drawn over a drum-shaped cylinder, and so arranged that the atmospheric pressure is always the same on both sides, 1 sure boiler, quite irrespective of any air blast. It is therefore always able to vibrate freely in response to the waves ot the echo, and its vibrations are made to open and close certain electrical cirscuits which ring a series of bells of various sizes, if, for example, the object is very small or at a very great distance from the ship, a very small instead of ringing a bell It producei a diagram of the disturbances la th« air—that is, When there Is no noise except that due to the action of the ship or the sea waves, a wavy line Is produced, but whenever the vibrations Bent out by the vibrator strike an object and return, the wavy line on the paper becomes very much increased In amplitude, so as to be eas lly observed, and the distance that th« Object Is from the sh\p can be measured by the length of the paper strij between the giving oft of the vtbra tlons and the receiving of the echo; therefore, the distance can be determined with a considerable degree of nicety, and the slse of the object may be determined by the amplitude of the waves that return. The inventor says that the apparatus for producing the atmospheric vibrations should be placed well for ward ojn the main deck of the shin or in any position where it can be turned about from port to starboard, it should be secured to the deck very firmly, and connected, by means ol a three-Inch pipe, with a high-pres- A straightaway valve should be placed in the pipe near the boiler, and Borne means should be found ot preventing the accumulation of water in the .pipe leading to the apparatus. Except in foggy or stormy weather, the apparatus would be merely ornar mental, of course, until it were used for communicating with other ships.

The first medal ever Issued was that given to the laisabethsn seamen who-defeated the Armada, and the earliest military deceoratlon was a silver badge issued by Charles 1 in 1643 for presentation to soldiers who had distinguished themselves in forlorn hopes. Waterloo was the first occasion when there was a general issue of medals, and since that time, instead of issuing too few medals, England has gone, perhaps to the other extreme. Soldiers point out that the same decoration is . awarded to the man who has been fighting at the front and carrying his life In hli hands for months; as to the man. in a regiment which has never stirred from the base of ossratjoni or to much as seen the enemy.

But just as soon as darkness set In and the captain began to suspect that Icebergs or other dangerous objects were close at hand, it would become useful. Of its operation under such circumstances Sir Hiram says: "It shouldvbe used constantly sendinz out the blasts in every direction. If the sea were perfectly clear, the blasts sent out would be recorded at the very Instant of their production, but no echo would be returned other than that dutf to, the waves of the sea, which would provide a zigzag line of small amplitude; but if there should happen to be an object of any considerable size at a distance no greater than two or three miles, the stgzag line on the paper would be changed,, the amplitude of the wavea would be greater and would be very noticeable. "To make sure, .the blasts could be repeated several times; and thep, If the result should be always the same, it would indicate the presence of some object, and the length of paper between the primary blast and the echo would indicate the distance that the object waa from the ship. It might be so arranged that one inch of paper represented a mile. "The receiving instruments can be placed anywhere on the.ship where they can be turned In the same direction that the siren Is turned, and there may be as many of them as desirable." Sir Hiram points out that there ars vastly more accidents to ships caused by running ashore than by collision, and that a coast does not heed to present a very bold set front to produce a very strong "echo" on his apparatus. If a ship provided with his apparatus waa approaching the coast of Ireland, he says, the echo would be sufficiently strong to show Itself over a distance of at least ten miles. M£/tNlNG OF "AT HALf MAST" Mt First LUriversa! Symybol Was Taken of Submission and Respect F**..pae*y. Perhupfr youi. have noticed that whenever a prominent person dies, especially if he 1» connected with the government, the flag* on public buildings are hoisted! only part of the way up, remarks the- Toronto Mall and Express. This is called "half mast." Did you ever stop to think what connection there cmittf be between a flag that was not property hoisted and the death af a great man? ' Ever since flages were used in war it has been the custom to have the flag of the superior or conquering nation aftove that ©f the Inferior or vanquished. When an .army found Itself hopelVsssly beaten ft hauled lts^flag down; far emwgh for the flag of the victc«~tb~B?rpTaeed above it on "the some pole. This was a token not only of aubmrsslon, but of respect. I* those days when a famous soldier died Sags were lowered out of respect to his memory. The custom loag ago passed from purely mils taury usage to public life of all kind*, the flag flying at half mast being a sign that the dead man as worthy ef universal respect. The space Deft above tt is for the flag of the great conqueror of all—the angel of death. Collective Housekeeping.

Servants are supplied, when needed, from the central hall at a cost of about ten, cents an hour. Subtle Admonition.

' <By C. L UBJWIS and C. C. VlNqENT.) It'fiaa been a question In the minds of many experimenters for some time Just now gHidi the wind aids in oarrylng pollen from tree to tree. If the wind doe* aid in distributing pollen. to it distributed in sufficient Quantities to insure the fertilization of the ovules? Sljaoe «s many of our? varieties of apples a,re known to be self-sterile, and must depend upon foreign pollen for fertilizing the ovules, this question Is Apiarist should be kept in orchards, as the bee Is the best agent for'crosspoll i nation. of serious consequence. Is it the wind or our common honey bee that does the work? From observations made the past few years it Is evident that bees play a most important part in the fertilization of the blossoms. To arrive at some definite conclusions as to how much pollen is transmitted through the air by the wind, experiments have been carried on in several states to determine this question. These experiments demonstrated" beyond doub% /hat plum pollen %8 well as pollen of several Bpecles of apples experimented upon is not transmitted through' the air in Bufflctau iITALIAN BEES ARE THE BEST1 -* "—,•*' agr£ Abundant^* ^ ^ 0 * t t f §That Long* , TSn0uedi£*cta$ftMore Work on * ' Re^CWver^AIn Others. jnier9^eejB|8|jto b^abundaatf' '|evlde »oe tlftt t&<IUllanTbce» do work more upon red clover than the black bees, and therefore that they do have longer toagueev The. project of breeding loBg-toepuejd U e ^ ^ a t . c a n r?ach any or all^ of the nectar cells in the red cioveV does potlBeem"tb ,us Jmnqsaiblje, when ,we, see what- has, been accomplished lit the line af breeding ouf domestlo ailmfcls; OUT hordes, for speed or draft, cows for mijk, gutter or beef, sheep^-for wool or ibnttpn, and dogs for huntjn»* or other purposes.

POST MAKES A USFUL GATE Two Sections of Fence Can Be Bent Apart at Top, Making Handy and Convenient Passage. Here is a fence, horse-high, bullstrong and pig-tight, and without a gate In sight. Yet the man who knows can pass through it easily. The secret rests In a pair of twin posts. Two pieces of strong wood are shod with iron at the bottoms. These iron feet are hinged by being connected'with a long iron stake that is driven into the ground and foras the foundation. At the tops of the posts are a hook, and a loop to engage the hook, so that normally the two posts are hooked together and form one rigid upright that holds the wires as taut as they are on the stationary poets that form the rest of the fence. To pass through this novel gate all that Is necessary is to Bure cross-pollination. Hence, the wind cannot be relied upon as an agency to transfer pollen from tree to tree throughout the orchard. That the honey-bee is not attracted to the blossom by the inflorescence has also been shown. It Is apparent that tho snowy petals of the blossoms Rid materially, in attracting the bees. The blossom is well supplied with nectar, and the open character of the nectary makes It-accessible to almost til insects^ ^The bees, in trying to wach.- tne nectar, brush against the aetioii1 and carry away with them on UM&r hairy legs and abdomen large crnaatities of pollen. The insects in visiting other blossoms transfer some of the foreign pollen to these pistils. Bince the wind aids so little in crosspollination, it is evident that the various insects, especially the bees, are carriers of pollen. As the assurance of a crop depends upon insects as, distributors of the pollen, it is necessary that apiaries be established in the different fruit sections. With favorable climatic conditions and proper planting of varieties the bees would Insure pollination.

If the stubble fields are disked as eoon as the grain is cut and capillarity Is broken, it will be much more difficult for the tons of water stored in the ground by Bummer rains to evaporate. It will also be found that plowing can be done more easily, and at less expense to horse flesh. D EDS AND PARriNores Baling is the proper treatment for cowpea hay.

Hit Properly Salepaitd Many school districts in this state and some in this vicinity a r e not properly safeguarded in that their treasurers are not under lawful bonds. T h e law provides that the treasurer muat give a per* sonal or surety bond for t h e full amount of money to come into his hands during each year of his term of office. This bond must have two sureties who are liable for the amount and each signer of it must justify in writing a n d under oath to the amount for whicn he is holden. T h e bond can not be signed by a member of the school board nor is the name of a married woman good on it. The only districts in the state which have lost money are those which failed to have their treasurers under proper bonds. All district money must be kept by t h e treasurer separate from the other funds and must be on hand in all times in actual cash or must be deposited in the name of the treasurer as treasurer in a bank or banks. Any interest accuring on the school money must be placed in t h e general fund of the school district. A treasurer who loans district money to any person or organization no matter how good security he may have, or who appropiates any interest for his own uses, lays h i m - self liable to fine and imprisonment.

It appears to be the decree of fashion that a considerable amount of false hair shall be worn by women during the coming season, and it is perhaps well that there should be a clear understanding of where the hair comes from. It appears to be admitted that almost any -American woman combs out enough hair from her own head to meet all requirements, but she will not take the trouble to save the combings, says the Manchester Union. An expert In the hair business stated in Chicago recently that "Americans live too fast to save their combings." Probably-Be was correct, but It Is also probable ihat tbe average American woman gives no thought as to where her supplementary supply of hair comes from. It appears that America Imports Its false hair from Europe and Asia. The European hair is rated as first class, although there may be some misgivings as to its source in some cases, but 70 per cent, of It conies from Cblna, from tbe heads of saving Chinese women, who are eager to swap their tresses for copper coins. It Is worth while to save hair J[roijQ "combings in China, which the average American woman totally Ignores until she pays a good price In the market. i Tbe old palace In St. Petersburg which burned recently should not be confounded with the Peterhof. It was a log structure, on an Island, tbe great czar's first home In his new capital, but had been long used as a Greek chapel.

Its destruction will remove an interesting landmark of the great Czar Peter. GOVERNOR ANNOUNCES ELEVATION 6 F ATTORNEY-GENERAL TO SUCCEED JUSTICE BLAIR, ROGER I. WYKES, OF GRAND RAPIDS SUCCEEDS KUHN. Kuhn is But 40 Years Old and is Said to Be the Youngest Men Ever Appointed to S up rcm# Bench. Governor Chase S. C-Bborn has appointed Attorney-General Franz C. Kuhn to the state supreme bench to fill the vacancy caused by the death of the late Judge Blair, of Jackson, and appointed Roger I. Wykes, of Grand Rapids, to succeed Mr. Kuhn as attorney-general. Mr. Kuhn resides in Mt. Clemens, and Is 40 years old. He is the youngest lawyer ever given a place on the Michigan supreme bench. It is a coincidence that he beuame attorneygeneral by appointment to fill a vacancy. Governor Warner appointed him attorney-general to succeed John E. Bird, who was appointed to fill a vacancy on the supr?me bench, Later Mr. Kuhn was elected attorney-genera.]. It will be .necessary for both Mr. Kuhn and Mr. Wykes to go before the Republican state convention and seek the nomination for the offices. Mr, Kuhn was educated in the public schools of Mt. Clemens. In 1893 he graduated from the literary department of the University of Michigan and in 1894 from the law department. He served three terms as prosecuting attorney of Macomb county, and also served as probate judge. Ho was appointed attorney-general June 6, 1910. Mr. Wykes, a Grand Rapids attorney, Is representing the state in several cases at the present time, and is a close personal friend of Governor Osbofn. W. S. Humphrey Heads Bar As3ocT»- tipn.

The selection of the next place of meeting was left with the officers, but will probably be Lansing as that place was favored by the delegates.

The defeat of woman's suffrage in Ohio, while sad news to Michigan suffrage campaigners, is not going to discourage the latter a particle according to their unanimous declaration. It will mean, Instead that.tb.ey will put up an even more aggressive campaign than previously planned. Besides, none of them will acknowledge that suffrage is defeated in the Buckeye state—not until the last vote Is counted, anyway. They all bear in mind the California returns, when for three days suffrage was reported beaten by varying majorities, only to turn up a winner when the last country districts were tabulated. Bakers May Fight Charter. Lansing bakers may test the legality of the new,city charter, adopted at the election a week ago. They allege the polls were kept open three hours longer than the law permits. The real reason for their opposition, it is said, is that the restrictions placed in the charter require them to make one and two-pound loaves of bread. The bakere are willing to print the FLASHES FROM WIRE. In the American quarter of the city of Berlin a musical conservatory is to be erected with sound-proof walls, so that pupils undergoing Instruction in tbe art of piano-playing shall not drive the neighbors crazy with tbeir din.

Much has been said and written in praise of tbe soothing Influence of music, but there are many individuals so constituted that it 1« the reverse of delightful to them to hear hour after hour—sometimes at the time of night when they would woo'sleep—the din of a neighbor's piano.

The Chosen Friends of Woodstock Ontario have arrranged for a monster trip to leave Saturday, Sept. 14th and two days will be devoted to the Fair. Advertising for this excursion has been done over a large territory between Berlin and London. Another excursion is being arranged from Findlay, Ohio and surrounding a large number of people with camp equipment who will reside on the grounds during Fair week. The Western Michigan Development Bureau with headquarters at Traverse City has written Secretary and Manager J. E.

MET AT DEPOTS AT VARIOUS STOPS IN GOODLY CRQWDS. Declares Campaign of This Year to Be One of the Greatest Ever Held in the United States. ' Nearly 8,000 people of Michigan Saturday caught their first sight of Hiram W. Johnson, the "fighting governor" of California and Bull Moose candidate for vice-president. The conventional "rear-end" special train tour of presidential campaigns was the means through which the nemesis of the Southern Pacific was given his introduction to Michigan people and the brief speeches he made bore out the impression that he is a fighter; one of the cool, calm kind who say things deliberately and dispassionately and mean very much what they say. And when he talks about red blood "fighting the battle of human rights" he doubles up his fists and assumes what is almost a ring pose. From Detroit across the state to Kalamazoo, and then up to Grand Rapids, extended the day's trip. Johnson is a stranger in Michigan and there was nothing in the hero worship attitude to his audiences. They were earnestly attentive, but not demonstrative, and at only a few stops was he given applause upon being introductd. There were few attempts at handshaking. The Grand Rapids meeting, where 2,000 persons heard him, was the effort of the day, and here he was greeted with the first demonstrative enthusiasm of the day although Kalamazoo warmed up to him in good shape. At all stops his speeches were much the same and it was evident that he ws carefully conserving his voice and nervous energy for the evening meeting. Direct attack on Taft and the Republican national convention was made only occasionally. GEN. JOHN PERSHING ' L E T US HAVE A HEART -' HEART TA1.K."

Interest in the automobile races at the Michigan State Fair is being taken outside Detroit and the State of Michigan according to advices received recently from the East. Disbrow is looked upon as the speed king and his meeting with Frank Kulick at the State Fair grounds Sept. 21st on the mile track, considered the fastest mile circle In the world, is the topic of much discussion. Kulick's mile In fifty second A last year in the Ford car took the country by surprise and the declaration of Kulick that fifty seconds will undoubtedly be beaten demonstrates the fact that Disbrow with the record breaking Simplex Zip will have to travel his fastest to keep in sight of the Detroit boy.

As the merchant, manufacturer and railroad president must seek new and modern methods to attain the best resultS'in his business, and is constantly expending largo sums to equip himself for present day competition, why should not the farmer and dairyman seek the best obtainable information on subjects of interest to him?

FORECAST THE WINTER HAT From the Outlook the Designs Are to Be Less Simple Than Those of the Present As the days get shorter, they get of any clear sunshine, but the fall hat pursues its relentless course towards a winter ideal, writes a Paris correspondent. You really require courage to put your head out of doors in a smart French watering place, with a straw hat pinned to your hair. The French milliner utterly taboos even a Panama, and white felt, dark plush and such like cosy materials are forced upon her unwilling clients. But as the season advances, the hat grows less and less simple. One seen at the riding trials at Dinard this week was a round and close-fitting hat, in a kind of white panne, that was irregular enough in surface to take all manner of lights upon it. This had for trimming the plumage of two birds of Paradise In the gorgeous natural coppery tint that we seldom see. As you may imagine, it was costly enough to be suitable at the smartest functions, and will probably be seen at Aix-les-Bains. WAS SHE SELFISH? Cupid Thought foot and Was Right By M. DIBBELL "The game Isn't worth the candle," said Jooelyn dejectedly. "We positively can't live on in this way; the ends simply wont meet—I must go to work at something." "But what oan you do, child?" queried her sister. "You have never learned anything hut housekeeping well enough to teach it, and nobody wants lessons at that." I "Well I might at least keep somebody's house." "Oh Jocelyn, is It not better to starve respectably than to go out as a common servant?" "It certainly is not. I have a good healthy appetite every day of my ,life, and I intend to do my best to produce the three satisfactory meals which Providence intended me to have. Besides, a housekeeper is an Important person nowadays—she oversees the doings of everybody else." "Where do you expect to find such a responsible position? They don't go begging?" "Now my great secret shall be divulged," Jocelyn answered triumphantly. "I bad a long talk with Mrs. perment before she returned to the city this fall, and she quite approved of my idea. In her letter which came today she says that a dear friend of hers is in such poor health that she is no longer able to look after household affairs, but cannot bear to think of giving up her home. Mrs. Derment told her about me, and was authorized to make me a proposal. The salary is generous, and she is sure I will like Mrs. Norton. So can you suggest any reason why I should refuse such an offer?" Miriam only gasped, as she gazed into the eager face of her energetic young sister. "You dear old Miriam—you just can't help knowing that it is the very best thing on earth I could do. You can live here in peace and comfort and come over to see me if you get Ecclesiastic Chemises Now. The latest eccentricity of fashion is underwear decorated with a cross motif. The cross is made of lace, or is embroidered by hand, and is placed on the front of the chemisette or nightgown, exactly in the center. When lace insertion is used to make the cross, one piece is laid over the other and the fabric is buttonholed over the lace all the way around the edges and then clipped away. The Maltese cross, with four equal sides, is used.

Relief succeeded dismay in Miriam's eyes. "That will be convenient to have you so near at hand. 1 was beginning to wonder how I could exist with you away off where I could never see you. You are a brave child, and I believe you could not help succeeding at whatever you undertook." The week following, Jocelyn Newell started for the Norton home to assume her duties as its housekeeper. "Remember I shall come to see you every Thursday afternoon," she called back to Miriam, as the big suburban trolley started. Jocelyn received a cordial welcome from Mrs. Norton who had taken a liking to her young housekeeper at their first meeting. "I am so glad that I am to have someone who can take charge of everything," she said with* a relieved sigh. "Now I can rest In peace, and rest seems to be a perpetual demand with mo nowadays." "When you don't have anything to think about except bow to get well and strong you will find yourself rest* ed before you know It.

Her interest m life seemed dead, but the presence of her cheerful young housekeeper caused it to show faint flutter- tags of life, and aa the months paaaed she found that existence waa sot after all an entire blank. ' The two women became fond of each other for the girl made vatlant efforts to Interest and amuse her em* ployer; and great waa her satisfaction when she eaw in Mrs. Norton a marked Improvement both In health and spirits. ' ,' The weekly visits to Miriam were faithfully paidj and the elder sister seemed cheerful and contented when they met; so It waa a shock to Joce" lyn when one day in late spring the received a call from Oliver Craig, one- of the favorite bachelors of her home village, and waa severely taken ta task by htaffdr leaving her sister to die of loneliness. When she tried to defend her action he waved aside b*{ explanation, but his aext^odSg, opened ' #.e mental eyes'of J l i bewildered, listener. "The only way out of it is for Miriam to marry me. I have been want ing her to do it for ten years. I am not going to sit quietly and see her pine away before my eyes—I want you to tell Miriam that it Is her duty to be my wife, not to keep a home for you as she has always insisted. You would be as dear as a sister to me and could have a home with us always 11 you would." Jocelyn gave a little laugh. "You nearly scared me to death, but now I see through your deep laid scheme. You know I have always liked you, Oliver. Why didn't you ask' me to help you before, instead of keeping your courting of Miriam secret all this time? To-morrow is my day for visiting, and I shall surely lay down the law to my dear old goose of a BIBter. She Bhall be happy, even if I have to force her into it." "What a dumb-head I have been," remarked Oliver disgustedly. "I never dared speak to you on the subject for fear you would go into hysterics—Miriam was sure the mere suggestion would break your heart." He gave Jocelyn's hand a brotherly squeeze as he took his departure. Jocelyn kept her word, and on the day following gave Miriam a severe lecture on her duty to the man who had loved her so long and waited for her so patiently. Before she left, a brother-in-law for herself had become an admitted possibility in the near future. On returning to the Norton residence after this interview, its housekeeper found unusual signs of excitement. "Oh, Miss Newell," was the greeting of Mary the parlor-maid, "Mrs. Norton's nephew has come, and they have been talking together over an hour. Mrs. Norton said put him in the blue room, and he would stay a long time she hoped." "I am glad he has come, Mary; it will do Mrs. Norton good and we must make him comfortable." Jocelyn hastened to her room, feeling to her own surprise decidedly blue. Removing her wraps, she threw a shawl about her shoulders and slipped out of doors. ) Mrs. Norton and her nephew were evidently settled for the evening, and a lonely feeling came over the^ jgung housekeeper as she heard their voices in passing; After rambling for some time in the moonlight, Jocelyn seated herself on a bench by the boundary wall, and faced the situation. "What a selfish thing I am! Just because Miriam la to be made happy in spite of herself, and Mrs. Norton has the only person she has on earth left to love come to brighten her up, I fall into the dumps! It's a nice way of practicing the Golden Rule.""" r *->1* - % But this Belf directed lecture failed of its effect, for to Jocelyn's disgust she found herself sobbmg softly. She rubbed the tears fiercely away. "Why~MIss Vewell, what Is the matter?" asked a sympathetic voice, aa Jocelyn gave a final dab. She looked up with a start to find herself confronted by a tall young man, who continued, "Aunt Alma sent me to bring her treasured housekeeper in out of the dew, but she will be sorry I found you in tears, Can't I dc something to help you?" "No, for I am crying because I am the most selfish creature on earth," she answered. "Should you sympathize with some one who cried because she was going to have for a brother-in-law a man she had always liked?" "I should sympathize with . my aunt's perfect housekeeper whatever her trouble—she has told mo all about you—but I am glad it is no worse." "Mrs. Norton is the best woman that ever lived." Jocelyn rose as she *poke. "I must see that she is properly fixed for the night. Please don't tell her what a goose I have been." "You need not fear that I will betray a confidence," he answered. Eugeno Ralston proved a great addition to the household, he carried both Mrs. Norton and her housekeeper off on all sorts of excursions. "I am a stranger and want to see the country,." was his excuse, and Jocelyn silently blessed him as she saw the pink beginning to creep back into Mrs. Norton's cheeks. Miriam was married to her patient Oliver in mid-summer, and the couple went for a short trip; but Jocelyn found that only joy for her sister filled he/ thought. "I must be growing less selfish—I certainly hope so," une said to her* self. —On the night of the wedding Eugene PRE8IDENT ORDERS TWO REGIMENTS TO PROCEED TO ZONE OF BIG REVOLT MOVEMENT. TO DECLARE WAR ONLY A8 A LAST RESORT. Executive Realizes Grave Nature of the Situation, But Hie Eye Remains Single to Welfare of the United 8tates. President Taft has authorized the war department to send two additional regiments of cavalry to the Mexican border. One will go from Fort Riley, Kan., and the other from Fort D. A. Kussell, Wyo. Maj.-Gen. Wood, chief of staff of the army, informed the president the two additional regiments of cavalry should be sent into Texas without delay, and Mr. Taft promptly approved the plan of the war department in transferring the additional troops to the border. Situation at Acute Stage. According to information forwarded to the president by the state and war departments, the situation In Mexico is most serious. Mr. Taft is opposed to Intervention except as a last resort. It is admitted, however, that conditions in Mexico have become worse in the last few weeks, and if the Madero government is unable to check the attacks on Americans and foreigners, the United States probably will be compelled to intervene, Under the Monroe doctrine this government would oppose intervention by a foreign government and for this reason the duty of requiring the Mexican government to furnish proper protection falls upon the United States. Intervention Draws Near. Although President Taft will not intervene in Mexico without the fullest deliberation upon a step that would moan war, his friends declared that, intervention is nearer than It has been since the first American troops w«re rushed to the border 18 months ago.

Secretary George P. Mjinohest(<r had completed the roll of counties in the call for nominating speeches, Comptroller Prmidrrgast had been formally put. in nomination by ex- Assemblyman George A. Green of Kings. William A. Cluulbourne of New York had pur William H. Hotchkiss in nomination. Mr. HotohkiBS had mounted ihe platform and declared that Mr. Chadbourne had named him on his own responsibility, but Mr. Hotchkias had not renounced the proposed nomination. Gen.

Within a few minutes after the general succumbed in the midst of his address, Kdwin B. ParsonB, captain and member of the regiment, suffered a paralytic stroke on the right side from the shock of seeing his comrade fall, and had to be carried from the hall. Ralston and Jocelyn strolled together. "It seems better to have a brother* in Taw that you feared, doesn't it?" Eugene aifced' "I am delighted—I begin to hopo that I am overcoming selfishness." "The Idea of your being selfish— you don't know the meaning 6t the word.** Jocelyn laagbed. "That only shows howJUttla you know of the roal roe."

A FOOD CONVERT Good Food the TriA Road to Health. The pernicious habit some persons still have of relying on nauseous drugs to relieve stomach trouble keeps up the patent medicine business and helps keep up tbe army of dyspeptics. Indigestion—dyspepsia — is caused by what is put into the stomach in the way of improper food, the kind that so taxes the strength of the digestive organs they are actually crippled. When this state is reached, to resort to tonics is like whipping a tired Horse with a big load: Every additional effort he makes under the lash diminishes his power to move the load. Try helping the stomach by leaving off heavy, greasy, Jndlgejtlblo food and take on Grape-Nuts—light, easily digested, full of strength for nerves and brain, in every grain of it.

A bottle-carrier particularly design- 's* for milk bottlee, but useful for oth- •«rs with large mouths or for jars, has t>een patented by a Maryland man. Two piecea of wire are bent into square form at one end and semi-cir- *mlar form at the'other. When connected the'^quare ends form clips to -engage the neck of the bottle. When these handles are spread apart the «ircle formed by the two clips is at Its widest circumference and will eas- DAIRYING DURING FLY TIME Two Most Needed Things Are Sprayer and Repellent—Cool Blanket : ,' Is Also Beneficial. ' * • ; - (By M. A. COVERDELL.) Afj$Po4 sprayer and reliable fly repeMjeht .will pay for themselves about twenty times during the fly season, to saj nptMng of the comfort afforded the animals and the satisfaction you will derive from milking a quiet cow. It you don't feel like investing in a spraying outfit, have your wife make you along, cool blanket out .of cheesecloth or some other light material and spread it over the cow while milking. This, however, is beneficial at milking time only. The one thing that will prevent the flies from sucking the life blood and consequently the milk from the best of your herd, is to spray, and spray thoroughly while you are at it. See that the cows have some sort of good shade. Tney simply cannot stand out in the scorching heat all day and do aB well as they would if protected from the midday sun. If natural shade is not available, it will take you but an hour or so to set some tall posts and make a satisfactory shade out of small brush, old straw or boards. The COWB must have shade. Too many farmers let their cows rustle water from foul sloughs or from a tank filled with water warn enough to wash dishes in. This is not merely a question of comfort and satisfaction to the cows. Neither is it necessary Bimply to add to your dairy products. Sanitation demands that the principal element entering into the composition of Tfillk be strictly pure—free from every vestige of disease or filth.

By setting the bottle down and releasing the grip the improvised handle can be released in an instant. The milkman will find 3>lenty of use for this device. INTEREST IN DAIRY FEEDING iBulletin of Pennsylvania Experiment • * « • Statiori Discusses Matter in * Most Thorough Manner. To those of our readers .who make a careful study of dairy feeding, bulletin 114 of the Pennsylvania experiment station will be very interesting. The principles In dairy feeding are Bone into both in a theoretical and practical manner. In a rough way the following rules are laid down as good: - .-1. Feed grain In proportion to milk •yields; that is, give her, Ipr example, one pound of grain mixture per day for each three or four pounds of milk produced. 2. Pe'ed all the roughage which the cow will eat up clean, up to the point where she gains too much weight. £ cA. Whenever she becomes too fat reduce the amount of roughage, leaving the amount of grain to be determined t>y the milk yield. Food requirements for cows of different weights and cows producing different amounts of milk are given in tables, Most of our readers will find the methods as described in the bulletin extremely unscientific, but after they have studied it a little they will find it quite simple and, we believe, quite practical. Of all the experiment stations the Pennsylvania -Jias done the most scientific work •with feeding stock.—Pennsylvania fBxperiment Station. Directions for Making Light and Convenient Device by Anyone Handy With Tools. In a recent issue I noticed some cuts of milking stools, so I thought I would send you a description of mine. I have used such a one for many years and find it very handy, writes A. O. Toune in the Wiacorfsin Agriculturist. The side pieces are of inch stuff, 3 inches wide by 20 inches long. The Handy Milk Stool. t seat, 10 by 11 inches, is nailed across the top of the side pieces. The board for the pail, S by 11 Inches, is nailed across the under side of the side jpieces so that the pail is 4 inches low* er than the seat of the milker. The back legs are 2-inch pieces, 11 inches long, and the front leg is a round piece attached by nailing a small piece of inch board below the pail rest, and boring a hole through both boards. This stool is light and handy, and easily made by a boy handy with tools. LATCH FOR A SWINGING GATE Illustration Given, Together With Directions for Making Convenient Llttlo Faniv Device. A good latch for farm gates may be made as shown In the accompanying sketch. The slide A is suspended by the hangers BB, which are placed on each side of the gate. The back end of the latch works between the guides C and the front end between tbe end pieces of the gate. The slide engages with a slot hi the gate post when the gate la shut . The hangers BB are made in any convenient length. The holes are one-fourth inch in diameter and tire bolts are used as fasteners. The boles for the, hangers should bs> drilled cne-third of the width of the Si- Don't give the calves too much skimmilk these days. Clean mud off of the COWB* udders and flanks before milking. The hand separator must be washed and scalded twice a day now. The separator should never be allowed in the barn or near it. Milk from a fresh cow is good for the table after the ninth milking. Don't neglect regularity in milking just because other work,is pressing. A good cow is hard to buy nowadays. The only alternative* is tpjraiae her. k > Never attempt to keep summer butlatch from Its top to make the largest | ter for. early fall prices because it will not keep. Cows fed well before turning them on a heavy forage prop wifl not be In Protect From Files. Remember that it takes as much energy and feed to fight 'flies as it does to grow a calf. Then will it not pay to cut out the flies by giving the calves access to a dark stable or shed, and also apply a little "fly dope." You may rest assured that they will grow and lay on flesh twice as fast from now on If they are afforded a means of thus protecting themselves than they otherwise .could possible, do. r-' "Jll> ^ Fzn \v\i IW Wfl w P: # ^ '••}[ ijttsh f a r Swinging Oats. part of the weight rail below tho fsstenlnjs of the supports, writes, •WilUrTO.'Wder^n Fdpuftr Me^hittslid* beta* in * borttontal ' % a- ^> poirtlon; it works better Wween the «< ^JP .

Twelve hundred to fourteen hundred head of the best breeds of dairy cattle are promised for exhibition this year, being judged by competent trained experts on type and performance, with all records of performance and cost, of production^ avoj^ ab& with what Is" fcesTrnlho" artsof breed|Df_and feeding developed by masters In the industry placed at the disposal of THe visitor, and with the highest achievement of the genius of man on linosof caring for and marketing dairy products before you, the 1912 show promises to surpass all its predecessors, and it would indeed be a laggard who would not justify time and expense of attendance upon this great show. Within its portals the old-thner can gain most useful knowledge for his daily farm activities, and a beginner can equip himself with the groundwork for embarking upon a successful dairy enterprise. The handful of men who commenced thts show have been supplemented by several hundred others from all over the country who from contact were* convinced of the integrity of purpose of Its founders and desired to become identified with the work undertaken. As success each year crowns the efforts_ of_ the management, the feeling takes root with the dairy people that this show should be the mecca to which all men interested—te—dairy progress should make an annual pilgrimage and bring their fellows with them in goodly nnmbers. This show is the mart for exchange of experiences and ideas that have made or broke those following the lines disclosed. It is the mart where all that is best in dairying; be it breeding, feeding, fitting for show yard, or developing to tbe highest standard of production for market purposes S3 discussed; where all that is modem in farm and dairy machinery is displayed in practical manner. Here the east meets the west; the youngster rubs elbows wits* the veteran. In fact, no fair or exposition, can hope to attain the value and importance that this exposition has attained. It stands today honestly administered for the dairy industry as a whole; It knows no breed or interest above another and is the highest exponent of all that Is best in dairying. The seventh annual show, better equipped, with all features of merit amplified, new and instructive features added in the government educational exhibit, no matter what character of stock raising he is engaged in a day or two spent at the show must be helpful to the man who wants to advance in his methods and make more money from his farm. It is a farmer's show, the less pretentious scale you farm oh the more need yon have of its teachings. The railroads are doing a great work along their respective lines and they, together with the agricultural and dairy press, are rendering valuable support to this show.

Loss orThlrty-five of His Crew in Northern Woods. Boise, Idaho.—Professor Welling, tanned and toughened by his summer's work in the Coeur d'Alene national forest reservation, held his eastern visitors spellbound with stories of tbe light he had helped to k&ake against the fearful foreBt fires, s a y s the Youth's Companion. He had gone out, with two others, under government commission, to study the forest and, coming back in August, they had met the fires and spent almost a month in fighting their way out of them. "JThere are real men among these forest rangers," he went on. "In fact, there is no place for anything that is not genuine up there. The most thrilling story of heroism 4hat I have heard in a long time is the story of Ranger Pulaski. It did not happen in the part of the reservation where I was, but I can vouch for its truth, for I have talked with some of the men who were with him. "Pulaski had forty men under him, and they had been fighting a big fire for hours.

They were many miles from a railroad or a clearing. "Pulaski remembered that about a mile from where, they were working was an abandoned mine shaft that ran back about forty feet into the hillside. He ordered the men to snatch their blankets from the camp and run for this shaft. Once there they packed themselves like sardines Into the hole. Pulaski placed himself at the opening and stretched a blanket across It. "In a few minutes the Are overtook them. The blanket at the opening caught and Pulaski jerked it away. Again and again this was done, and when the supply of blankets ran low he held the burning fragments across the mouth of the shaft with his bare handJL Hftje" skTrT&nd" bTdTisfe trimming of cnecked blue and white wool. Here the collar is a flat round affair, but if made in sailor form a shield with a high neckband could be used inside, and this arrangement might be better for the lassies with tender throats. ' Serge, broadcloth and cheviot; are other adaptable materials, for, to be sure, the dress could be made of one fabric, and the style of it is good enough for the very best street suit. For girls of all ages—and for women, too, for that matter—there are some perfectly round felt hats with rolling brims which respond very prettily to a binding and crown piping of plaid silk, or if the hat is already bound and banded a Scotch quill may be added to the side. — S o if there are bits of handsome plaid and checked fabrics in the house they will come in very handy for the trimming of youthful hats, for the very wings themselves may be made o'f silk or velvet, and when of a fabric the^y always seem smarter than when the real thing.

It sounds startling, but the effect was elegant. Another girl gowned also in dark blue charmeuse, wore a bat of straw of the same shade, around which were beautifully arranged feathers of a lovely jade*green.

PIQHT ON TURKEY PARASITES Youngsters Must Bs Protected From txoessive Msst and Dampness, •ays Government Bulletin. / N o kind of young poultry Is so susceptible to tbe effects of unfavorable conditions as the young turkey. They must be carefully protected from the attacks of parasites, and from excessive heat and dampness, says a goveminent bulletin, until they have gained sufficient strength and sise to wander away with the parent turkeys and care for themselves on the range. The chief danger from lice and mites attacks to the poultse.is directly after the poults are hatched, but the best remedy is to deal with the hen before the young are hatched. The plumage of the' hen should be ducted with Insect powder, and close down to the skin from head to hock joint, being careful not to get it into the eyes. This should be done at least twice a week until twe or three days before hatching. The most careful' attentions should be given te this. Never use lime or sulphur for this purpose. Nothing is better than some Insect powder, If i t does not contain ingredients that are injurious to the eyes. It may often occur, however, thai the hen will not have been properly treated, and also the lfoe and mites will be found on the young, and in order that the poults may live and thrive, they must be freed of thees enemies. As soon as the young are ready to leave the nest they must be examined carefully for lice, which may be on the top of the head, under the threat or about, the wings or vent. Some of them are gray in color and difficult to see.- They may be destroyed by the use of sweet oil, rubbing a small amount upon the head and throat; insect powder is sufficient for the other parts of the body. It is very important that only a small amount of the sweet oil be used, as too much is injurious. Kerosene should never be used to destroy parasites.

When William Enggas, a plumber at Fifth, and Grand, got married, he had a stylish horse and a neat piano box buggy. A few years later the horse bad been replaced by a sturdier animal and the buggy had grown into a road wagon, with an extra, seat Now, when the Enggas family goes driving, which is often, the road wagon is found to have grown to a sort of omnibus, with seats for 12. A team of chunks has replaced the one horse of the road wagon days. "I don't care if I have to use a hay wagon some day," remarked Enggas as he rested his horses for a moment. "We have only ten children, but I am sure we would have twice as much fun if we had 20. I know that ten are five times as much fun as two. Yes, they do enjoy their drive in the bosom of the family, as It were." And Mrs. Enggas, who doesn't seem a bit worn and nervous, as the story books and suffragettes would have us believe of a mother of family, smiled her assent. Maybe it Is because she has s o time to worry oyer suffrage or anything but to bring up her healthy, bright lot of babies.—Kansas City Journal For Complete Enjoyment At Meal Time Use bread made from P u r i t y Flour and you will say t h a t it is Jj the bread t h a t everybody o u g h t t o eat.

CAVKHLY, Pub. F1N£KNEY, - - - MICHIGAN THE M L«y LAW IS SWEEPINI AEROPLANE GUN8. The e£ftj£lnients by Captain Lewis of the United States army, and the more recent tests of the British army at Farnborough show that machine guns can be fired from flying aeroplanes with a greater degreVof accuracy than has yet been attained at bhoOting along the ground. A target was* struck at almost the rate of nine times out of ten, which meana that very little ammunition was wasted. The accuracy of plunging fire Is notable In military annals. At Sedan the encompassing cannon of the Germans planted on elevations compelled Louis Napoleon's capitulation under threat of annihilation. In the Russian-Japanese war Port Arthur was doomed when the Japanese poured into the city their galling Aire from the great heights above. The fact that the Japanese worked long to gain those elevations again proved the recognized value of plunging fire. The war In Tripoli has shown that gTeat damage can be done by mere bombs dropped from directly overhead. This being demonstrated, the military authorities of Europe are now using machine guns. These can be aimed and fired more accurately than anything that is dropped. There is less waste of ammunition and more ammunition-jcan- be carried. The experiments combine to make a powerful argument for peace. The conclusion is reached by a London Journal from observation of the increasing number of American women who go to Europe alone that "American husbands are a drag on their women folk when traveling abroad." Why only "when traveling abroad?" Many American husbands will be disposed to indorse the statement without the qualifying clause. These are the husbands who find themselves generally In the way except when bills are to be paid, says the New York World. They are ihose who prefer the '(slippered case of their homes to the allurements of the cabaret show, who refuse to learn "the turkey trot, though everybody In their "set" is doing It; who play auc- Jjon bridge urulrr rnmpnT«lnnt nnri otherwise impede domestic happiness. Husbands exist as a necessary encumbrance In tho present social scheme, hut doubtless they will have to be borne with until some automatic method Is devised for making the money to pay for automobiles and clothes and tuition fees, as well as the rent. MUST COME UNpER THE NEW LAW SAY THE INDUSTRIAL 80ARD. \ ANOTHER REPORT OF SPECIAL SESSION OF LEGISLATURE. County, City, Visage, Township and School Districts, Have to Provide for Employes. The governing powers of every county, city, village, township and school district in the state is invited by the newly created industrial board to take notice that any of their employes who may be injured in the line of duty, and dependents In case an employe Is killed, can collect damages under the new workmen's compensation act, the same as the employe of a private employer, firm or corporation, and without recourse to the court. Wbile it is .optional with any private employer, firm or corporation, whether it comes under the provisions of the new law, or continue to meet personal injury damage claims in the old way, the industrial accident board takes the position that county, city, village, township and school district governments come under the law automatically. While the law is not <jxfijlcit on this point, the-fcwo- lawyer members of the special commission that framed the law, Hal H. Smith, of Detroit, and William P. Belden, of Ishpeming, agreed that it was, as a general principle, mandatory on all subdivisions of the state government to observe every state law, even though there is a constitutional objection to making a workmen's compensation and employers' liability act mandatory on employers. The first case in which a city is interested was called to the attention of the board when James Conley, of Lansing, street sweeper died as the result of injuries received from being hit by an automobile. 1'iider the provisions of the new law the city will be required to pay any one dependent upon him Tor support one-half of his weekly wages for the next 300 weeks. ACCLAIMED A PATRIOT The Suicide of QojnrtlNjs** C«H«J a P a t r i o t i c ' 4 m * : '•' • , The dramatic dejftjJNft G*n. Count' i l a r t s u k e Nogl, th*q'*oldTeT-hero of1 Japan, a n d - t h a t of his wite, the1 Countess Nogi, who- coimstdentally with the departure ftorn cthe capital of the body of the t a t * emperor Mutsuhito for its final resting place at Mxmoyarna, committed suicide, the general by gashing his throat with a sword and the countess, by harakari, is regarded by the great soldiers of Japan and by the general's other countrymen as a magnificent act of patriotic duty. But the nation being in the deepest mourning and the new emperor being forced into seclusion by the death of his father, it is> impossible to confer the usual posthumous honors, and consequently General Nogi officially is not dead. The count on Thursday morning, prior to attending the funeral services of the late emporor at the palace, summoned a photographer to his home In Akasaki> a suburb of Tokio, and in the garden of his residence posed with his wife while their picture was being taken. Letters left by Gen. Nogi, it is understood, explain his deed and alio contain an apology to Prince Arthur of Connaught, the special ambassador of Great Britain at the imperial funeral, to whom the Japanese BOIdier was specially attached. No messages of condolence in connection with the suicide of the count and countess will be sent for several days. Experiments have recently been carried out in Germany with the object of- discovering methods atrd means for rendering walls and ceilings capable of effective resistance to sound transmission. One of tho more recently devised methods Involves the U3e under the celling, or parallel to the wall, as the case may be, of a network of wire stretched tightly by meaus of pulleyB secured Into adjacent walls and not touching at any point the surface to be protected against sound. Upon the wire network is plastered a composition formed of strong glua, plaster of parts and granulated cork, so as to make a flat slab, between which and the wall or ceiling is a cushion of confined air. The method described Is said to be good in two respects; first, the ab> sence of contact between the protective, and protected surfaces, and, secondly, the colloid nature of the composition recommended for the plaster. Wonders In electric development follow one another with marvelous rapidity. The latest Is a wireless system much faster than those-now in use and so precise that It can be employed in 'the transmission of pictures. At present wireless messages are transmitted by intermittent waves. The improvement makes possible the control of a continuous wave, and, so the English inventor asserts, will enable qpefatorjt to send two hundred words a minute. that a monster whale caught Its tail uraHy, it rocked the boat But this serf* of finny fun U no Improvement ~«WTTBiMorTglhaI metfifiTr *-r C' • , y * . •V ' "* FW*, |R™v |£>,; ftp,:. ••' & • ' * ' • , ; • ' & oiv- * • - • •V '..-•.

He was a nighl watchman at the Michigan Home for the Feeble-minded and Epileptic and on August Ki spirited away one of the Inmates of the institution, Nora Y. Reynolds, 20 years old. He took her to the home of Mrs, Hay Dickinson, near Davison. The girl told Mrs, Dickinson that she had been given a vacation, but tho lattur, who was formerly employtY at the home as an attendant, became suspicious when nhe noticed the girl's condition, and notified Superintendent Hnynes, The superintendent started an investigation with the resuit that Fletcher reposea in the Switching Rates Protested. Directors of the Western Michigan fair, at Grand Rapids, and exhibitors at the fair, have filed a protest against the switching rates of the Grand Rapids & Indiana Railroad Co. The complainants say that the company is charging $3 per car to switch exhibits to the fair grounds, and as the company is the only one entering the fair grounds, the exhibitors are forced to pay. The shippers contend that the decision of the railroad commission in the Haggerty case should apply, in" which the commission held that a railroad was obliged to accept cars from another railroad free of charge of delivery to the consignee. The decision has since been adopted by nearly every state in the country. Panama Canal Opening. The Panama canal is to be opened to traffic in the fall of". 1913.

T T The militiamen serving as guards at the Michigan state prlgoav Jackson, shot and killed the sexton of St. Mary's Catholic church when they saw him near the walls of the prison judging he was up to some mischief. The shooting occurred at midnight, Friday. The dead man is John Bisy, a Syrian, who resided on East Washington street. ,The militia now on guard is the' remnant of the 300 soldiers whom Gov. Osborn called out to guard the prison when the management reported itself unable to cope with the recent mutiny of inmates with the regular force of guards. , After being shot twice Eisy died at the city hospital about 15 minutes after his arrival there in the police ambulance.

Telem graph and telephone lines are being extended over hundreds of miles of territory, and the watch towers on lofty peaks, hitherto occupied by native Bentinels on the alert for raiding bands of head-hunting foe9, are deserted. At Bontoc (capital of the sub-province of the same name)-, wonderful improvements are being made. Here, where half a dozen years ago no white man could have ventured without an armed escort, the men and boys are being taught brick-making and lime burning. A deposit of magnificent clay for the purpose was found near the river, with unlimited quantities of sharp Band suitable for building near by; also limestone. Today the people of the entire village of Minac, in that neighborhood, are burning lime and furnishing it to the government of Bontoc Province. They are becoming independently rich at the business. These facilities, with unlimited labor obtainable for nothing under the system of the ten-day tax, make building work, exceedingly cheap. A large brick school house and a brick club house, as well as a building for the offices of the provincial government, of stone and brick, have been put up. at Bontoc;'also JL prison for wild folk who misbehave themselves, and a -jsmall, hut thoroughly up-_ip-date, hoa M, ^AMS^ZVKr m **' ^zro?- last few months government stores, called "exchanges," have been started at. various points, and are kept supplied with everything likely to be required by the natives—the prices for goods being those current In Manila, plus 20 per cent, and cost of transportation.

They preferred independence to submission. Nevertheless, being areata* ally' c^rcome by force of anna, they are now entirely docile. Generally speaking; the Igorots are peaceably Inclined.

Nevertheless, the practice is being gradually stamped out and, with the "Kelp of the Igorot and Ifugao constabulary, a number of murderers have been arrested and punished. There is still a considerable area over which government control has not yet been established, and which has not even been opened up by trails to any great extent, owing to the inaccessible character of the region. One should realize, of course, that head-hunting among these people is not regarded as murder in the ordinary sense of the word. It is a field sport and a manly occupation, established by the custom of centuries as befitting of warrior. ongnhe most Inveterate head .hunters were Ifogaoa.

There are not more than 6,000 or 6,000 of them, but they inhabit a vast region, most of it very mountainous and almost wholly covered by virgin forest. Often their settlements are merely temporary, and they are hard to get at. Enormous distance* separate their village*, which in the more remote regions continue to fight among themselves. These were the people who not long ago murdered Dr. William Jones while he was engaged In making ethnological note* among them. Nevertheless, trails art being pushed, into th* heart of th*4r country; two or three government "exchange*" have been established; industrial schools are being started for their benefit, and effort* are being made to induce them to extend their agricultural operations—partly for the sake of rendering their ooaamanttie* more stationary. One should realise that t h e continual warfare ihaj.haa heea going on for centuries among the tribe* in the wild man'* territory of Northern Luxon ha* been due mainly to lack of ae^ualnt w e e sanebg the peopie.

Most of the wild people seem heartily willing to give up their ancient cuBtom of curing physical ailments by human and animal sacrifices, and come to tho doctor fihowing a touching confidence in the ability of the white man to give them help. Packages of simple remedies, with small pamphlet of directions in English and the more important native dialects, are distributed among the villages; likewise large quantities of quinine and other safe and useful drugs. A recently discovered drug has been foutid to be a specific for the very unpleasant tropical disease called "yaws." It happened that a Bontoc Igorot. afflicted with it, was unwilling to go to the nospuat, but was compel led to do so, receiving the one injection requisite. Then he began to complain bitterly that no medicine was being put. on his sores. But the effect of tne drug soon manifested Itself, and he went about town excitedly demonstrating his improved condition to all -who would look. Some days later ho disappeared, and the doctor was much disappointed, because he wanted him for an object lesson to convince others of the efficiency of" "the treatment. To the great surprise of the hospital staff, he turned up again soon afterward with thirteen other sufferer* from "yaws," whom he had brought a distance of fifty miles from his native village, in order that they also might be cured. In Benguet the wild people are building school houses and sending their children to them. The boys are taught to construct looms, and the girls to use-them for making cloth.., Each girl, on completing her course of education, takes her Joom and return* to her own village, thus extending her newly-acquired knowledge of weaving to hor family and friend*. At Bua Is an Igorot girls* school In which the pupils not only make cloth, bat manufacture articles of clothing for sale.

Try us and be convinced. We have new goods on the way and more ordered, among which are sweaters, Aviation cape, serges, novelty dress goods, whip cord velvet, etc. etc. Borne boy's sizes of shoes to be sold at cost; some men's and boy's trousers at half price; some hats and caps at half price; we are closing out these lines and now is a good chance to get such goods for * very small amount of cash. fc Don't fail to see our new dishes; we challenge any 10 ct. fc: store to show a nicer line or any cheaper; oat-meal dishes, s= sauce dishes, cops and saucers, fruit and pie plates, all at 10 fc cts. each, and some fruit dishes and fancy plates at 25 cts. ^ Always a nice line of groceries, candy, cigars etc. S i .Respectfully, | M R S A . M . U T L E Y 9 E Not The Editors Fault Some people wonder at times how it r? that a newspaper has a lengthy written account of one wedding and just a few lines giving the bare announcement of another wedding. Some people attribute it to partiality upon the pait of the editor, others say it is because one is rich and the other is poor, etc., but the real solution is very simple. In one case someone interested has been thoughtful enough to give the editor the deUils while in the other case he has chased all around to find out something a bout it and unable to obtain any particulars has to be content with a simple announcement, and he is is not always able to secure even that much for certain. *0 aa a < o a &. aa Fall Stock i of Men's and Boy's H A T S and C A P S Has been received -aud now is your time to make a selection while the assortment is at its best D o n ' t Pail t o S e e O u r b i n e o f Sweaters and Sweater Coats For Men and Children tor We Can Save You Money MONKS BROTHERS a - < co -¾ 0 a c o A little attention to the subject will convince any one that the high price of living nearly dnnhl«i between the producer and it ! * * - the consumer.

"This government Is far behind every nation in military aviation, as we have at preseut but ten aeroplanes and ten thoroughly trained men ready for service," said no less an authority than Brig. Gen. James Allen, chief of the signal corps. "We have gone slow, very Blow, in the preparation of our military sky army for various reasons, because there has been no seeming pressing need of extensive defense of this kind. Realizing, however, what other nations have done toward preparing themselves for aerial conflict, our government Is now taking stepB toward making additions to our military flying fleet and teli more aeroplanes have been ordered. "1 hope eventually to see the provisions of the bill for aerial equipment tor the army carried out in full. This calls for 120 aeroplanes, in charge of 286 aviators and 720 enlisted men.

"The army aeroplane which the United States expects to depend upon in case of hostile demonstrations will carry 2,500 rounds of ammunition, which it may discharge at the rate of 500 a minute. It can^ travel 104 miles an hour, carry enough fuel to go 460 miles, Btay up 11¼ hours and climb to an altitude of 12,828 feet. That Is what has been done, and what aeroplanes have done they can do again. "Then the army, like the navy, expects to make good use of the hydro-aeroplane, which may alight upon, skim through and fly from the water arreadily as it does from land, and from plowed land as well as from level ground. Its use would be mostly for observation of the enemy at long distances. "What models are we now using?" "Well, we have only Wright, Curtlss and Burgess Wright machines at present, but when the money is forthcoming it is likely that we will purchase some of the best of the foreign machines. Should the necessity arise the United States would certainly acquire the best products of modern invention to the complement of her own supply.

He will also have under him a force of 48 aeroplane mechanicians, all enlisted men, giving five to' each machine, and an extra one for each company. "To one field army of regular troop3 there •wilteiw three aviation squadrons, one aslgned. to each of the two divisions and one to the headquarters of the field commander The squadgen assigned to lieadtjuarters will be equipped with aeroplanes of extra "motor power for long distance recoan&iaiSance.

Lieutenant Gotti established his right to a niche ln the hall of fame by his daring flight over the enemy at Tripoli when ho dropped four of these aerial grenades among the enemy at various points with deadly results. "Turkey, beholding the devastation Italy has wrought from the clouds, has made rapid strides In the purchase of an aerial fleet of her own and is likely to retaliate in like manner. "Austria is also waking up to the advantages of these adjuncts to military tactics, and has entered the field of aeronautics."" When General Allen was asked what would bo tho work of the flying machines in the event of war he said: "By skillful maneuvers properly equipped and skillfully handled military aeroplanes may wipe out or put in retreat a whole army before sunrise, report to their base of supplies and disorganize a hostile fleet before breakfast . "Generally speaking, they would perhaps be most effective as scouts, working from different points upon the Atlantic coast, the Gulf coast and the Pacific as coast patrols for observation and supplying' Information* regarding the approach of ships. Acting aggressively they could by -assembling in small groups do an Immense amount of damage. "rnvthe event of the existence of war and the approach of hostile ships or transports with troops these scout aeroplanes could prevent the landing of any troops. If each station in the coast patrol had, we win say, five ships, each of which can carry 400 pounds In addition to the weight of the aviator and his supply of fuel, a tuu of explosives could otr distributed by- the** patrols while they were going forty miles an hour, and they could return and prepare for another trip if necessary. , "This amount of explosive could be dropped in weights of from 20 to 200 pounds without in- Jury or disturbance to the aeroplane and from safe heights of from 2,060 to 3,000 feet It should not require many such hints to convince the commander of any fleet or invading army, no matter how determined he might be, that the locality was rather unhealthy. "The best time for such work as this to be done would be tn the semi-darkness of the early morning or hue evening, just at duak or dawn, when it is next to Impossible to see an aeroplane, particularly if It stays up a couple oj thousand feet To the aviator and his companion who 50uld,,aUeod to the distribution of missiles.the the boats, the camps and even indlthis work. "Successful aviation is a scientific problem which, llko every other wonderful achievement, Is only a success after each detail Is perfectly worked out. The first great esentlal in the practical use of aviation In military tactics lies in the neceBBity for safety in flying. "What would be the use of the government spending money to train officers and soldiers to the fine point necesary for successful airmen only to have them meet mishap and death, to say nothing of the losses through the destruction of valuable machines representing the outlay of thousands of dollars. Flying may be, will be, aa safe as any other mode of travel. "This is one of the problems which our government experts are working upon now. They have already settled upon automatic arrangements which should materially lessen the number of mishaps and fatalities. It is the unexpected which happens, taking a man off his guard for an instant, which experience and study will avert." General Allen believes that the requirements for an army aviator include physical perfection. Only commissioned officers of the army and militia need apply and before they can be admitted to any of the aviation schools they must pass a rigorous physical examination. To forecast what the war of the future may mean it Is only necessary to look over the field of modern invention in the production of deathdealing weapons. Battles tfill be fought in the clouds with machine rifles which throw out streams of bullets, aerial torpedoes which may bo released by levers strapped to tho feet of the aviator, bombs of powerful explosive which can tear men and horses to bits and the German aero guns which send down brittle bombs containing 150 pounds of chemicals that upon exploding fill the atmosphere with poisonous gases - calculated to kill every living thing within 500 yards. " To overcome thiaVdi sad vantages of the_jlarkness there is an eijactrically controlled search light which may be suspended hundreds of feet below the airship and. thus illuminate for a brief time the area of attack. Thus the flying artilleryman may see just where he wants his fire to strike^ while £e remains aaXe Jp his Iron or steel sheathed shfp high above the danger of being seen or hit.

A black Chinese crepe, closely covered vitth dull flowers, Is shown for the waista of fine black dresses, and in the half mourning department there is a dusky gun metal color which is haying considerable vogue, this showing up splendidly in almost every material. For tailored suits in color or blmk, there is a new velvet with a cordu;*oy look, but without the ridges of this well-known fabric, and with this a silk braid goes qiost handsomely-. Mole or taupe is a favorite color in these fine fabrics, which sems to indicate that they are preferably for elderly wearers, as should be all the textures with large patterns. At any rate, it is an established truth that a brocaded material must be carefully managed not to give its wearer something of a settled took. The fact that such rich trimmings need to be' used increases this danger, unless the fine garniture is very sparingly put on or the wearer takes things in her own hands and orders filmy chiffons and nets for the touches of the bro» caded gown or coat. __ Fur and marabout bands, both of which will be much used on the coats, supply the proper decking for such sets, which, because of the pattern* of the fabrics, would appear unflix- Ished if left untrimmed. nesa of ye ancient times, although the softly-falling silks are sometimes of incredible thickness.

A eingle rat that is "suspicious looking" among many examined for signs of plague is nothing alarming. It appears, however, sufficient reaaon for taking precautions against Imported rata. The bubonic i^ague-has appeared at several points in the tropics and vessels which came here from those points may bring Infected rata. Where tbe disease is known such vessels will be quarantined and presumably the rats will be killed, says tbe Philadelphia Press. Nevertheless, tbe danger of plague gaining a foothold will always exist so loug as there are cases of plague in countries with which we have commercial relations and rats find tolerance within the city limits. New Orleans has discovered a plague-infected rat and we presume it will take precautions suggested by that fact. It suppressed yellow fever by exterminating the yellow fever mosquito and we have no doubt It will rid Itself cf rata if convinced that It is the only way to bar the bubonic plague from that veiy susceptible city. San Francisco warred upon its rats with thoroughness and success and practically suppressed the plague which is always threatening it .through its trade with As!a. We do not suppose the plague would appear hero in any case in its severe fornvbutnevertheless we should take uo chances. The rats should go. DECISION OF STATE T A X COMMiS- 8ION UPHELD BY VERDICT IN CIRCUIT COURT A T ALPENA. ONE OF T H E CA8ES OF ITS KIND DECIDED IN T H E STATE. Capt. Blackman Takes All Blame for the Shooting of John Eisy While Militia Were Guarding Jackson Prison. Alpena Victor in Big Taxation Suit. A case affecting valuations as fixed by the state tax commission was decided in circuit court in Alpena when Judge Emerick directed a verdict for the defendant in the case of the Island Mill Lumber Co. against the city of Alpena. The plaintiff concern sued to recover taxes paid under protest, after the tax commission had visited Alpena and increased the valuation of the city an average of 64 per oent. The company's real valuation was increased from 120,000 to $35,000. The claim was made that the valuation and subsequent assessment were fraudulent, and out of proportion with other valuations. Judge Emerick ruled that the plaintiff company must prove that the tax commission showed malice and Intended to make a fraudulent valuation. This is one of the flret-cases of the kind decided in the state by a circuit judge and will be carried to the supreme court. Every etudent of economic conditions in the United States knows that more farmers are needed to make agriculture keep pace with other Industries. The project to divert to the farms immigrants coming to Chicago, by establishing on the lake front near Twenty-second street an agricultural and industrial exposition building with special features for the Instruction of the newcomers In the possibilities of country life, is one that should Interest the public greatly. Too many of our Immigrants, even those bred in the country and capable of becoming Immediately useful on farms, settle in our large cities. ••The-eoun+r-y districts need them, the cities do not, says the Chicago Record-Herald. In tho cities there are now few chances for them compared with those that existed a few years ago.

At the conclusion of the review in the Tennessee the Detroit reserves will sail down to the Atlantic coast and up the Delaware river to Philadelphia, where they will be discharged, This Is a choice assignment as the Tennessee is one of the crack cruisers of the navy.

Blackman practically assumed the responsibility for the killing of John Eisy at the Jackson prison. At least his testimony, given before the military court of inquiry without hesitancy and apparently with no desire to suppress anything, carries with it the assumption that his shot was the fatal one. There was a possibility of befogging the issue by confusing Blackman's two shots .with the one fired by Private Jackson, but the officer refused to take, that course. His statements, made with a lawyer's knowledge of the consequences of Buch evidence, put the effective shooting "up to" himself and to no one else. This is a cynical, mercenary age.

Dr. Parker said that he is not yet certain when the board will hold its meeting, and he intimated also, that be will recommend to the board that it go on record In favor of restoring corporal punishment In the prisons of the state in cases where convicts are incorrigible. The board of corrections and charities has no power in the matter of. ordering changes made at the prison, being merely an advisory board, but the law requires that in cases of an uprising of convicts or lack of discipline it make an investigation and report to the governor.

Osborn and the prison board of control investigate the conditions leading up to the recent disturbance at the prison, tho whipping of prisoners; that responsibility be fixed and guilty ones punished— meaning prison officials guilty of causing whippings. In addition to placing candidates on the state ticket the Socialists .set a precedent in Michigan, it is believed, in naming two women for presidential electors. The women are Mrs. Ida Kummerfeld, of Detroit, and Alice McAfee, of Lansing. The convention was mnrked by-^4 large number of women in the galleries and sprinkled throughout the hall. Amusement was on the program when W. T. Curry, a m o l d e r from Kalamazoo, who was unable to do as he preferred in fixing the candidatorial slate, dramatically shouted his dissatisfaction, tore up his credentials, threw them Into a cuspidor, declared the convention was of the "steam rotter" variety and left the building for bis home In the Celery City. 9E 55i trolt'g name a by-word, Mayor William B.

Plenty of Water for Panama Canal. The engineers' calculations as to the sufficiency of the water supply In the Panama canal have been amply vindicated by the figures just reported from the isthmus. The great lake of Gatun, which is being created by the dam at that point, during the week Sept. 2 to 9, accumulated just 5,740,000,000 feet of water. During this period tbe water level of the lake rose three feet, Every time a ship Is locked through the__caaal_n\ye_ and—a—half—miUloncubic feet of water must pass and when tho lake is full it will afford enough water to fill the locks 150 times da|ly, which it as least twice as fast as the ships can pass. When the surface of the lake reaches its maximum night of 87 feet above eea level with the water just flowing over the crest of the dam, it will contains the enormous amount of 102,250,000,000 cubic feet of water. Special Sailors for Navy Review. An opportunity to be a saiior in the United States navy for a period of 10 days and to tcke part in the naval review at New York next month Is offered to sailors by the government. This is said to be the first time in the history of the navy that citizens have been allowed to become bona fide members of a battle ship crew without enlisting for a term of years. The circular letter sent out by the navy department asks for 1,000 men for the 10-day period. The principal reason for the demand for these short terra enlistments Is that the ships have only skeleton crews and must have more men to get to New York. NOTES BY TELEORAPH.

BULES FOR BETTER BREEDING Following a most severe winter the apple trees in many localities ' present a very bad appearance and the condition has caused much alarm to be felt among fruit growers. In some cases whole trees have been killed, but in most cases a few of the large limbs have been, killed and these per- Bisting give the tree a "stag-headed" appearance. ' In many cases it la found that those limbs that were weakened by scale, overbearing or other cause, are the ones which suffered the most from the continued cold. Many of the limba that were severely injured but not entirely killed pushed out a few leaves, but these never attained full size, but soon withered and dropped off. The majority of such limbs are now completely dead and are of course valueless. Some limbs, not so badly, injured as these just mentioned, produced almost normal foliage—in some cases differing from the healthy leaves only by the slight yellowness—and on these limbs fruit has been produced. This fruit also shows Blgns of the great disturbance that has taken place for it is frequently found to be —"gnarled, or even wateryrand this condltion is fairly uniform on any affect- «ed branch. It is easy to tell now just which limbs are going to live and which ones are past recovery. It Is the fruit grower's business now to help the tree recover from this damage. He can do this by pruning away the dead wood scientifically. First of all he must be governed by the rules of good pruning, which require that all cuts be made flush HARVESTING AND STORING THE APPLE CROP with the main branch. If the fruit grower wishes to become convinced of the harm that can be done by leaving stubs, let him examine a poorly pruned tree and note how the growth of the wound tissue has been hindered. He will also find that the stub has rotted badly and endangered the limb. Having pruned the tree properly and having rid the tree of all the dead wood, it is now essential that all wounds be covered to keep out the germs which cause heart rots. Few apple trees of any age have a sound heart. This Is due solely to the work of fungi. These fungi have entered the heart wood through uncovered wounds. To cover the wounds of the apple tree many substances have been suggested, but the matter is yet largely in the experimental stage. At present a good white lead paint, applied thoroughly and frequently renewed, seems to be the best recommendation. Some success has been had using the white lead paste, or thinning slightly with oil, but the fornier thing seems to be most convenient. It should be pointed out that white lead Is hard to obtain in some localities and many OTIB Modem Improvement of Draft Horse Brought About by Observance of Principles Given. Considering what has been said we may next set down some simple rules for the conduct of our breeding operations upon sensible, scientific and successful lines. It may be said, too, that the modern improvement of draft horses is being brought about by the following of these rules, and their observance has led to the success achieved In foreign countries. The mares chosen for draft-horse breeding should be draft mares in size, weight, character and temperament. They should be sound, workers, over 15 hands in height and not not less than 1,200 to 1,500 pounds weight in work condition. It would be best were they 1,500 pounds and up In weight The sire should be a sound, prepotent, muscular, thoroughly worked or exercised, pure-bred, registered stallion of draft breed. The resultant progeny of the first cross, If a male, should be castrated; if a Champion English Shire. substitutes are ottered:. ~Tf painting the wounds for beauty only he can use the fancy mixed paints, but if he is painting the wounds to keep out fungi and to protect the trees, he must use good material. It will be found in many instances that the trees that now appear to be badly used will recover from the injury, and in some cases the killing of the limbs has done considerable good in thinning out trees whose branches were hopelessly thick. . By PROF. C. P. HALLiGAN, Assistant Horticulturist, Michigan Agricultural College. The indications are that the apple crop in Michigan will be much above the average this fall. The value of this crop will depend, in a large measure, upon the care exercised in picking and the methods used in storing it There seems to be much ignorance and carelessness in harvesting and /storing apples, which always results in an inexcusable amount of waste' and decay in the fruit. This .statement is more apt to be true of the small grow* er who harvests only a few apples for home use during the winter than of the commercial orchardist who depends upon his fruit for his income. A few simple rules of caution will prevent, much needless waste. Time to Pick. If apples are harvested too* late, they will not keep as long in storage,.although they will be of high -color and of good sise and quality when picked. U apples are harvested too early they Are apt to be undersized and of pooY quality. We da not expect a winter apple to be ripe at harvesting, time. It should be full sized, however, well colored and should separate readily from the spur. If, when picking the apples the stems are polled out or the spurs broken, it Is too early to harvest that particular variety^. How to Pick. Apples should be handled like eggs. Aay break or rupture la—the—skjsv barrel and carefully inverted that the fruit may not be injured. How to Store. The fruit should then be stored as soon as possible. Piling the fruit in the orchard is a wasteful practice. The fruit heats in the piles and ripens very readily. The aim in storing fruit is to retard this ripening process that the fruit may be kept longer. Do not store fruit that has been piled in the orchard for any considerable time after picking. Get a good spring wagon for hauling the fruit into storage. A sprlngless , wagon, especially over rough roads, will injure the fruit for Btoring. If the fruit is packed in tight boxes or barrels, It will store better than If open crates are used. The storage house or cellar should be well ventilated, well drained and frost proof. A cellar that cannot be properly ventilated to allow foul air to escape, cannot keep fruit well. Drain the cellar so that it will never be wet and remove excessive moisture with a box of quick lime. In cellars having cement bottoms and where they are apt to become too dry and cause the fruit to shrivel up, supply water. female, It should, when the time comes, be bred to a pure-bred sire of the same breed as the original sire, and this plan of breeding should be continued, cross after cross, until five or six top-crosses of the- same pure draft breed blood having been put on the progeny is practically pure bred is Hjf-the—breed— used in—Its.—making- There should never be the slightest deviation from this plan of breeding. Had there been In France we would not have the modern Percherons of today; and mixed breeding, such a^ has characterized American operations, would have absolutely prevented the origination and perpetuation of the Clydesdale, Shire, Suffolk or Belgian breeds. Selection and some mixing In blood had to be followed In the early origination of these breeds, but It Is no longer necessary and now would be ruinous. Then, too, the sire must be__sound, and throughout the entire operation of horse breeding, as we have seen, adequate feeding must be the rule.

It consists of a %- Inch rod threaded and tightened with burrs and inserted between the Joists above the horse, similar to a manure carrier cable* There are awning pulleys fastened together In a pair so that one pulley runs on the threeeighths rod, and the other has a rope run through it with two hooks tied in so that there is an end of rope hanging below each hook. These hooks are tied in according to the height of the horse, one hook being clear up to the pulley and the other to hook Into the hame ring or strap, pull the other end of the ropes which lifts the names clear of the horse and hook the other hook In hame ring or strap. The back pad and breeching are lifted in the same manner, one hook to lift the back pad and the other can be used above the breech* ground was covered with some June grass and endless variety of weeds and sprouts as high as a man's head and almost impossible to walk .through.

About t i e middle of August a grass seed mixture was broadcasted over the entire tract and the sheep held on the area for another ten days to grase still closer and incorporate the seed with, the soil-"by their tramping in wandering over the land.

(By % C BOOTAND.) I write only from my own experience of.over 20 years in raising hogs for the market. Different localities and different feeds make a, great deal more or leas profit tn the keep of the hog. Some feed too long and consume part of the prom, while others feed not long enough or liberally enough to make what they ought to make. I run all my hogs on ilfalfa from birth until sold, either for breeders or for the packer, and as soon as they weigh 200 pounds each, or about that, I sell or kill them. If you are feeding pure-blooded hogs (especially if the blood is red) they will weigh from 175 tic 225 pounds each at six or eight months of age. I think Beven months old. is the best age. and the most profitable hog we can sell. The younger you sell, the less risk of disease, the less trouble, time and feed it takes. The sooner you sell, the more room aud the better care for the loxt litter. . The cheapest gain is made while the pig Is small. A pig weighs about three pounds at birth. With reasonable care it will gain on an average one-fourth pound a day for the first 10 to 20 days. So you see it doubles its weight in 12 days, and at G5 cents per bushel for corn, and ¢1.50 for 100 pounds for shorts the first three pound* of gain cost about three aud one-fourth cents per pound, allowing eight Sigs to the litter for each sow. Don't tryto get the marfcet ready for your hogs, but get your hogs ready for the market. Sell them when they are fat and not before. Keep the kind that top the market and you will make money if feed is high. Registered hogs gain faster, bring more money for the feeder, and makS more pounds of meat out of the grain fed them than any other animal on earth. SWINGING GATE FOR SWINE Should Be Hung Downwards With Hinges So That the Hogs Can Push Their Way Through.

Declaration of Principles Do Not Leave Room for Any Sort of Dispute* to Arise. With a membership of 150, including alt of the delegates to the state tax conference, the Michigan Taxpayers' association was organized in the closing moments ot the conference Thursday afternoon in tUe Detroit common council chamber. All taxpayers are eligible to membership and it is planned to make the association a strong force for good, just as similar organizations have become in New York and other states. To remedy matters of taxation the plan suggested is the Wisconsin law, which bases the average rate on the cash value of all property in the state as fixed by the tax commission instead -of using the valuation on which taxes are actually paid as a basis. The Michigan state board of equalization last year clipped $000,- 000,000 from the cash valuation as fixed by the tax commission. Had this $600,000,000 been left in the budget for purpose of figuring the average rate, the railroad tax rate would have been reduced from $21 per $1,000 to fj.2, resulting in a decreaseof almost half in the railroad tax levy." The resolution of the conference on this point is as follows: 'The Michigan tax commission is at this time spending approximately $150,000 per year, the major portion of which goes for the support of a force which is engaged in the work of increasing the assessed valuation of the general property of the state. In itB last analysis, this work results in the reduction of the average rate of taxation, which is the rate applied to the property of public service corporations under the law, Serious consideration ought to be given, both to the cost of this work and the resultB obtained, to the end that, if inquiry proved it advisable, some better method may be adopted. In this con. nectlon consideration should be given to the method now prevailing In Wisconsin, where the average is determined by the tax commission from the—actual value of -,the_e_ntlre nroufffltik. Swinging Hog Gate. posts in the lower part of the fence, Hang the gate downward with a pair of small hinges BO that It will swing both -ways and the hogs will soon learn to -go through that way. The Horse's Hoofs. If the horse's hoofs are hard and Inclined to be "shelly" do not let anybody put oil or grease on them, for thia only clogs tbo hoof material, which should absorb water instead of repelling it.

Prospect! for the Seventh Annual National Dairy Show, Chicago. >Vhile thia event has, each year given evidence of its usefulness to the dulry world, yet the rounding out of the seven»year period promises to give to the country one of the moat valuable educational shows ever presented. With the thought In mind that the Importation of dairy products la growing to a dangerous amount and that present prices and general conditions concerning agriculture in America warrant a tremendous amount of work t© stop the terrific drain upon our gold by foreign countries for products we should and must grow at home, the attention of the management has been given entirely to the rendering of practical demonstrations on lines of the maximum of production at the minimum of cost, of dairy products. While features of Intense moment on sanitary and hygienic methods will bo presented, yet the paramount work of this great educational show i3 for the farmer. Matters of breeding and feeding will be presented by demonstration and discuaaion; the better handling and marketing of dairy products will be discussed—in fact, everything that will tend to aid in profitable dulry farming will be hero shown and talked over by the highest national authorities. The machinery department will have many active, interesting and instructive exhibits. It is the intention that every exhibitor shall have an opportunity to display his exhibit, wholly or in part, In active use, thus giving practical demonstrations under expert hands. But the cow and her place upon the farm will be the paramount issue; with $9,000,000 annually being shipped out of this country for dairy products, the cow and how to increase her capacity has the most need of consideration by all patriotic citizens. No farmer in the middle west, be ha already engaged in dairying or not, cca afford to overlook this ten-day short course in all that is best for the farm. In fact, this show has assumed a relation with farming and dairying that makes it the annual round-up of all affairs of the dairy world, where show-yard battles are settled for the season; where trades are made and where matters affecting the next year's work are discussed and planned. The show will be held this year, commencing October 24, in the International Amphitheater, Chicago. While the show Is National in name, it will be International in character, as by comparison alone aro we able to seewhat is being accomplished the world over. Some new and useful class** ~are being added to the. elasMfleatloBy which will be ready for distribution shortly. Adv. Different Albert J.
