The new addition to the Temporary
Home is nearly completed. A consider
able part of the interior work has already
been done and it will not take long to
finish the remainder of the work. The
day nursery and hospital will be located
in the new wing. The nursery will be
on the first floor, the hospital with
nurses and bath room adjoining ON the
second. This floor can be quarantined
by itself in cases of contagion. 1t Is
reached by an outside staircase and can
be completely shut off from the rest of
the house. The laundry will be in the
basement. 1t is hoped that the building
can be furnished before fall.

FRESH DAIRY ITEMS.

Salt Is becoming unpopular in butter,
largely because IL is suspected of hiding
some defect.
The separator not only gives more
and better butter. but leaves more milk
suited for the calf
Aerate your milk where the air is
purest only, just as you give the cows
the purest water TO be had.
Good bulls OF pure breed are very gen
eral now and bull calves OF similar
stamp are comparatively cheap.
Bulls tempers are often ruined by
teasing. They should see only their
masters, with stick and ring at that.
Jerseys are still the cows for cream
and butter. but lIolsteins are In favor
for cheese and for milk for market

Why He Had Naught Hut Worry. asa
Neither Comfort Nor shekeis-


And IL came TO pass that in the sixth
month a certain man digged well
20 cubits deep. It's walls were Of stone,
and when he had built the wall for IS
cubits he had no more stone. And he
sayeth 10 himself; 1t will do, and An
isheth IL off with few boards.
And In the tenth month there came
great flood, and the boards were
washed away and the well cayed in. and
IL cost him many shekels before no
could get water again from the well.
The same man buyeth cow, and he
seeth two cows, one that giveth much
milk and one that giveth not SO much.
And he buyeth the one that giveth not
SO much milk, for he sayeth she costeth
not so many shelels, and she will do.
When he feedeth the cow he giveth
her not much feed, for he sayeth feed 10
not plenty and she getteth enough.
And when he buyeth a milk pail he
buyeth a small one, for he sayeth the
COW giveth not much milk.
And II came TO pass when he washeth
the milk pail that the water was not hot,
and he sayeth II will do. And when he
selleth the butter he getteth not many
shekels, for the butter was not good.
About this time the wife OF this man
sayeth unto her lord: Give unto me
shekels that / may buy myself raiment,
for that which wear is like unto mos
quito netting for holes. And the man
sayeth unto his wife: The weather is
warm and thy raiment viii do, for
have no shekels 10 give unto thee.
Then the wife of that man answered
him and said: o, foolish mani Dost
thou not know that unless thou doeth
with thy might what thy hand findeth
10 do that thy labor is lost? For want
of two cubits OF stone in they well the
IS were lost. When thou buyeth a COW
that giveth not much milk thou vert
building but IS cubits. And when thou
giveth her not enough food, and when
thou takest not care OF the milk, thou
vert doing the same. o. foolish man!
as for want Of two cubits OF stone thy
we'll was lost, so for want OF two shekels
in the price OF thy COW, and for want Of
two measures OF meal, and for want Of
two moments OF work Is all thy profit
In thy butter lost, and thou hast no
shekels.-National Stockman.

UNIFORM GAME LAWS.
Practical Plan Suggested by the Western
Field and Stream.

Field and Stream
Western Field and Stream, published
In St. Paul, Mimi, presented a practica.
bic scheme for the protection Of the
game of the country, which we are in
clined TO believe offers complete So
lution of this much vexed problem, and
fits senior editor, Mr.. Charles Hallock,
who devised and formulated the scheme
has also the fullest Endorsement of all
leading naturalists and sportsmen who
have had an opportunity TO examine it.
Briefly, IL contemplates dividing the en-
tire territory OF the United States, from
the Atlantic 10 the Pacific. into two con-
cessions along the line OF the 10th par
nllel of latitude, or near II, for each Of
which there shall be Uniform laws and
uniform close time, the whole TO be un-
der the police surveillance of the ma
tional association for the protection OF
game and fish through its multifarious
etate anxiliaries. The close time for
the northern concession will be from
January 1 10 September i, and in the
southern concession from February l
60 September ], during which no shoot.
ing shall be allowed on any kind OF
game whatever, excepting that wood
cock aud shore birds OF the order Limit
colae may be shot in August. The gen
eral close time for all kinds of inland
fishes, recognized MS game fishes, TO ex-
tend from October 20 June ] excepting
that fishes OF the order Salmonidae, in.
Guiding the trouts, may be caught in
April and May. These close seasons
conform very nearly 20 the distribution,
habitat, and breeding seasons OF the
various fauna which are sought 10 be
protected; and where they do not es-
pecial exceptions may he made, IL
deemed expedient. The laws which nre
90 dominate will inhere by legislative
enactment; uniform in all the states,
and cooperative throughout. Emer
gencies and bodily stress will always
stand In plea for exemption from penal
ty for violation OF the laws, when well
proven.
Mr.. Hallock presents his arguments
an n very logical and convincing manner,
and he believes that IL cannot bc long
before this salutary code will be in sue
cessful operation.

THE MUD IN THE ROAD IS THE
HEAVIEST LOAD.

10 carry, not So bushel baskets, but
loads made up from 90 TO 1925 bushel
baskets, and still the loads are not re-
garded as heavy. Two horses are able
20 do more work than four horses, and
with much more ease.
On the old roads two men and four
horses, with a wagon weighing 1000
pounds, could take two and half tons
of produce to market and bring back
an equal amount of fertilizer, making
one trip a day. Now. on the good roads,
one man with two horses, and n wagon
weighing 1900 pounds, makes four
trips to market, bringing back an equal
weight and making four trips a day.
