Ing out the hay If bound solidly in the

center In order to make the opening
wider at the bottom than at the top.
This will prevent binding, and in conse-
quence the hay will readily settle as it
is being eaten away from below. From
about eighteen inches above ground to
the top Of the posts the sides and ends
should be boarded tightly, making it
possibl for the animal to get at the hay
only at the bottom. Many consider it
a good plan to cover such a rack with a

Testing Cows,

Do not depend on a single test to de-
termine the value OF any COW, as she
may be off her feed, in heat, or in
some other way not quite right. When
a COW in the Worlds Fair test showed
an abnormal per cent. of fat, the super
intendents would go Immediately to the
barn and take the cows temperature.
They would nearly always find her
feverish. There were some days a COW
gave nearly twice as much butter as
the day before. A test made on either
Of the days would have been unjust.
The Guernsey cow that made the high
est weekly record for that breed in the
Worlds Fair test, 1914 pounds, was
fourth among the Guernseys in pro-
duction In the ninety day test, and was
the tail-ender of the Guernseys in the
thirty-day test. There were ten Guern-
seys in that test that had been MIXED
longer than she had, and that excelled
her in both production and profit. A
single test is better than none, and
it is an excellent way to buy cows by
testing them, but every dairyman
should keep daily record of milk from
each of his cows. and test the milk as
often as once month, SO as to know
what he Is doing. Commence to-day

More Use of Wind Power.
Not nearly enough use is made OF
wind power. Most of the wind mills
we see are used wholly to pump water
from wells. Though this as a steady
Job probably saves as much labor as
any one thing the wind power could be
set to doing, there are many Other
back-aching jobs that are on many
farms done by hand power, which
might quite as well be given over te
wind power. Turning grindstones and
churning are among these. When young
we knew some farmer boys who put
up light windmill which turned O
lathe in a shop. Here they spent many
hours making all kinds Of wooden ar
ticles. All of these boys kept up their
love of farm life. because their wind
mill was set to do tasks that on Other
farms the boys had to perform by what
sailors call main" strength and stu

CHAPTER XIV

In the morning Barney took Aiarsten
to the house of the friendly gardener,
whose good will had been secured
through the corrupting influences of
wealth, and there the young man
donned the blouse that was supposed
to give him that horticultural air nee
essary for the part he had to play.
Marsten was very serious about it,
but Barney seemed to enjoy the mas
querade to the utmost, and wanted to
take the amateur gardener to-be pho
toSraphed. so that there might be a
picture as d memento of the occasion.
At last Marsten got away, with the
broom on his shoulder, and, presenting
himself at High Cliff grounds, was ad-
mitted without question. He made no
attem0t to conceal from himself the
fact that he did not like the fraud he
was about TO practice, but When his
conscience upbraided him, he asked Of
il what better plan it had to propose,
and to this there vas no reply.
The grounds were empty when he
reached them. and with his natural
shrewdness he applied himself first to
the walks that were in public view. so
that when the young girls came out he
might be in the more secluded portion
of the plantation, where he was sure
the rules of the school would require
them to take the air. His surmise
proved correct, and the young man
felt more embarrassed than he had
even suspected he would be when he
suddenly found himself in the midst
of a fiuttering bevy of girls, all chat
tering, but happily none paying the
least attention to him. He had not
counted on the presence OF any of the
