The Elkhart Truth thinks the world
is growing better all the time. There
is no doubt of it. The more intelligent
people become the more certain they
become that it pays to be good, or that
honesty is the best policy" However,
something occasionally happens to lead
the most of US to think that the world
might safely grow better little faster
than it does. This strikes with keen
emphasis when one is given the worst
of it by one in whom he has had per
feet confidence.

stsntly remarked upon the fine weather
and scenery. His death is attributed
to heart disease. Deceased was born
in 1916. OF late his home has been at
Valparaiso.

1t is a question as to whether the
Plymouth schools will begin the first or
second Monday IN September. On this
matter 1t is understood that SupefiD-
have not agreed as yet whether to com
mence the first or second Monday in
September. They would meet popular
approval if they decide to begin the
term on the second Monday. This
would give the teachers and young
folks all an opportunity to attend the
Methodist conference which convenes
here September Z.

In the first place, brush off the cows
bag dry and clean, but gently. Next
see that your own hands are clean; use
soap and warm water. Do not wet the
cows teats, certainly not by dipping
your fingers in the milk as you proceed.
1t is bad and intolerable habit. Do
not converse with anybody, especially
another mixer; it will hinder you, or
both, and it disturbs the cow. Never
strike COW; speak low and gently to
her; she is responsive to kindness.
Never feed her just before milking;
that is to say, while you are milking.
Feed her before milking, and wait un-
til she is done feeding; she will stand
quieter. One thing at a time. Milk
her as quickly as possible and as clean
as possible, but be careful not to hurt
her teats. Give her a name and always
call her by that name. These are small
hints, but it pays to heed them.-St
Louis Republic.
