Names woman Diver.

A woman diver is something new,
but Mrs. Lille Gordon of South Port
land, wife of Nat Gordon, the famous
submarine diver, can lay claim to this
distinction. In June, while her hus-
band was constructing a stone wharf
at Hurricane Island, Mrs. Gordon dom
ned the divers suit and went down in
thirty feet of water. She went down
as steadily as veteran diver, says one
who was present, and though for a
minute she felt as though she were
smothering, she reports the sensation
at the bottom of the sea as a very
pleasant one.

Keeping Cream in Winter.

In small dairies where it takes a long
time to secure cream enough for a
churning, it often becomes old, smells
and tastes bad, but is not sour. have
found that the best way out of the
difficulty, with the conveniences usual
ly at hand, is to Keep the cream in as
cool place as possible, not below
FIRE, zing, and "a hours before churning
place the can in hot water. stirring FREE
quently until the temperature of the
cream reaches SIS degrees. Then put
the can where it will keep warm. The
next morning it will be sour with that
velvety look which indicates that 1t is
of the proper acidity. If not warm
enough to churn properly, put it again
in warm water and stir 50 that it will
warm evenly, get the best results
by churning at 70 degrees. During
the summer | churn at 81 or So de-

Report of the Surgeon Genera of the
Navy.

The report of w. K. Van Reypen,
surge op-general of tue navy, to his
commanding officer, the head of the
navy department, which has just been
made public, is such document as
should be expected from such depart
ment and from such an officer. Gen
eral Benjamin f, Tracy called atten-
ton, during the recent political can
vess, to the difference between the sys-
TENS of organization in the army and in
the navy. The latter was managed by
a responsible head, while the former
was 10 charge of a lot of independent
officers, practically responsible to no
one and removable only under charges.
The navy department met every de-
maud made upon it during the recent
war and it cared for it's own men with
success. The reason for this result can
be found in Surgeon General Van Rey-
penis report, as bis department is
good type of the various sub. divisions
in the naval office. A brief summary
of the work which DR.. Van Reypen
says was done before and during the
war will show the Efficiency of the bu-
reau of medicine and surgery.
He says that from the time of the
blowing up of the Maine preparations
were made for any possible contingent
cy. The naval hospitals were fully
equipped, plans were prepared for en-
larging their capacity and arrar ge-
ments were made to furnish medical
and surgical supplies in any quantity
at any place and Immediately. When
war bt came imminent all the ships
that seemed likely to be engaged were
equipped with full outfit of war sup
plies and III anticipation of large
number of outside vessels being en-
gagged medical and surgical outfits suit
able for them were bought, assembled
and boxed, ready for shipment at mo-
ment's notice. Further than this eX-
aiming boards were established in
various cities to pass upon applicants
seeking appointments on the medical
staff and when war broke cut an eli
gible list was ready and appointments
were made from it. An ambulance
ship was fitted out within sixteen DAYS
from the time the work was begun and
it did more for the relief of the wound
ed Americans and Spaniards than had
ever before been done by any ship of
any nation III time Of war When it
became evident that the Spanish pris-
Oners would be remove d from Santi go
to Portsmouth two pavilions were built
at the latter place from plans that had
already been prepared, aud telegraphic
orders were issued for bedsteads, mat
tressee, and all other needed supplies
and additional medical officers and
nurses were sent. Within five days all
arrangements for the reception of the
men, and they were lodged, fed and
clothed as though they were expected
guests"
The lhoroughne and the complete
ness of organ cation revealed by this re-
port are responsible for the success of
the navy in the recent war, 1t did not
have to make all its preparations after
war began. Il was ready for any con-
tiGgency and had but TO carry out he

When to Sell.

There really is more Importance to
be attached to the above three words
than most farmers think. II requires
as much thought and judgment to
know Just when to sell as it does TO
raise your product to sell. Of course,
everybody is ready to admit that it does
not require very much intelligence to
know when to sell very many articles
that are raised on the farm. All per-
ishable articles should be marketed i'm
mediately when they are sweet and
fresh. Once acquire the name of
bringing fresh and wholesome vegeta-
bles and fruits to market, and it will
cause you to make quicker sales as well
as receive better price for your pro-
ducts.
But your judgment and common
sense are called on when you have
your gram, hay, straw, potatoes, apples,
etc. ready for sale. | know farmer
in my neighborhood who had five hun
dred bushels of rye threshed and stored
in his bin for sale. He was offered
seventy-6ve cents bushel, but, no, he
wanted eighty cents. His next offer
was sixty cents. "Well," said be, 81
guess not. 1t will lie there a good
while before l will take that" Rye
kept dropping. After keeping it for
about five years he sold his rye for
forty five cents. That is what a little
"spunk" did for him.
Now for the other side of the case,
and this occurred personally to myself.
One fall kept in my cellar five hun
dred barrels of fine potatoes. All
could get from the field was 81 % a
barrel. | kept them until spring and
sold them readily for SO 50--a lucky
hit.
One of my neighbors, good, honest
German farmer, was watching me. He
said: "You just know your business.
I'il watch you after this little" Sure
enough, next year could have drawn
them from the field for 1925, but,
no, they went into my cellar. My
German neigbhor treated his the same
way. The next spring he and | both
drew our potatoes to market for rs
ceuts barrel. My German neighbor
said, Observation-Disclosures man makes me
lose over $500.
The foregoing only proves there is
more satisfaction in every man using
his own JUDI ment. l believe there is
economy in selling right from the field
when it practicable to do so.
Sell everything while fresh. Avoid
shrinkage, avoid decay, avoid handling
more than necessary, and | think you
will be the gainer.-W. H. H. in Coun-
| try Gentleman.

CarbOlic Salye.

Carbolic salve shoald always be kept
ready for use at the COW barn. Bruises
and sores often occar in the best regu-
lated establishment, and there is moth
ing really better than carbolic oint-
ment fer such cases. This may be
purchased llready prepared al any drug
store or the dsiryman can easily pre-
pare it for himself by simply taking
some vaseline or even lard and adding
to it very small quantity of the acid.
Two or three drops of carbolic acid
would be sufficient for one tablespoon
Jul of the vaseine or lard, only mix
them thoroughly together. Such ONT
ment is rapid healer and keeps flies
away from sores. II is excellent for
man or beast.

Skim Milk Fed to Calves.

The returns from feeding whole milk
to calves are not large enough to warrant
the use of that feed to any great extent,
while skim milk is shown by the Utah
experiment station to give profitable
returns when properly fed. Calves
largely fed skim milk gained one-haIf
pound less per day than did those fed
whole milk, although practically the
same amount of dry matter was re-
quired IN each case. Both lots made
equally good use Of their food. With
the gain in weight at 4c per pound, the
calves returned 90 per 100 lbs of skim
milk fed.-N e. Homestead.
