HOW AN INDIAN SQUAW TEACHES
HER PAPOOSE TO SWIM.

Initiate "a Frog and You VIII Hit tho
True StrOke-Some Advice From Mr..
Gus Sundstrom. the Champion SWIM
mer-Riddles.
Many boys and girls are learning to swim
this summer, and those who are not ought to
be- The first thing to be done is to overcome
ones terror of the water. A go'd way to do
that is to put the whole head under water
and keep it there with the eyes open for a
second or two, holding the breath. The next
thing to be remembered is that one must lie
nearly fiat upon his breast near the top OF the
water, thus making it support him. The
more fiat surface one can throw upon the
water the better it will hold him UP.
Then remember how a frog swims Watch
one do it, if you have never done so, and
study his motions carefully. Men and frogs
are shaped alike. Initiate the frog when you
try to swim.
The picture will show you how Indian
squaws teach their young ones to swim. All
Indians, old and young, male and female, can
swim like fish.

Fattening Poultry.

Poultry of all kinds will fatten sufficiently
and fat are made by feeding milk warmed
and mixed to thick paste with oatmeal,
boiled potatoes and cornmeal This feed
should be given four times day as plentiful
as it will be eaten. 1t is best given in feed
boxes or troughs, which should be taken
away as soon as the fowls have eaten The
fowls should be confined in coops, which
should be kept clean and deeply sanded.

changed two or three times day. Some
farmers run all the water pumped into the
horse trough through the tank by means of
inlet and outlet pumps or simple spouts 1t
is a convenient and economical method of
changing the water, and should be adopted
where possible. The simple apparatus will
