On Tuesday morning the editor

Va, to attend the funeral of Mrs.
William A. Thomas, a daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. D. Y. Morris, and
granddaughter of Mrs. Mary A.
Byrne, with whom many Of our
older people are acquainted.
Mrs, Thomas was few months
less than twentY-six years of age
and leaves two small children, a
husband and large circle of loving
relatives and friends, who will ever
cherish her memory as one of the
pure, just and good.
AS a friend, Mrs. Thomas was
kind and true. AS a wife and
mother she was all that the word
implies.
After weeks of the most intense
suffering she passed to the unknown
beyond. Her remains were inferred
in the beautiful little cemetery on
the outskirts of Kingwood, the fu-
neral services being conducted by
the Revs. Graham, of Washington,
Pa, and Crummett, of Kingwood.
The floral tributes were hand
some and numerous.

TESTING THE COWS.

A Simple Method of DeterminioE tho FER
forn,ance OF Each.
TEST your cows" is the advice con-
tinually given by dairymen and agri-
cultural papers, and, like most advice.
is needed least by those who need it
most. Many farmers, while admitting
it's wisdom, excuse themselves from
following it on the plea that they have
no testing apparatus. and therefore no
means of knowing the respective per-
formance of the COWS.
To such I would say that no scien-
tific apparatus il necessary. The churn
is after all the most satisfactory kind
Of tester. All that is necessary is TO
keep one cows milk separate for a
couple of days. all the cream being
carefully removed. When tho cream
has ripencd it should be churned. and
the scales will give the product. both
of milk and butter. a fter each COW in
the herd has thus been tested. a com
parison of results will tell which arc
the most profitable cows aud which do
not pay for their keep. A little of this
kind of testing would cause many a
farmer to change his opinion of the
merits of the respective mem bers Of
his herd, and enable him to weed out
worthless stock. Try it. The test is a
simple one: it is easily applied. and the
results cannot be disputed. Try it,
and you will never regret the bother
you have had in finding out the leak in
your profits.-C. D. Bell, in n y. World.
