Imitation Butter in Cuba.

American butter sells for less in
the Cuban market than butter from
France, Holland and Denmark. And
yet American butter is generally be3-
ter than that coming from the other
countries. The trouble is that oleo-
margarine and other limitations are
sold in Cuba as American butter. It
is precisely the same dishonest meth
ods which have so greatly injured the
American butter trade in Europe.
When our government stops this
fraudulent trade American butter and
cheese will sell again in the markets
of the world at prices as, high as sim
liar articles from other. countries.
This dishonest practice on the part of
exporters not only disgraces the
United States, but it takes millions OF
dollars annually out of the farmers
pockets by depreciating the value of
their Observation-Disclosures Press.

Halter to Fit ANY Hor.e.

& Take a rope of convenient length and
thickness, and make a small loop at one
of it's ends and another small loop about
four, inches away from it. The halter is
completed by passing the end of the
rope through the first loop and then
through the second loop. AS this
halter runs through both loops it will

advantage is that it requires to be kept

THE BUSTLING WOMAN. /
Sho II Even Worse Than That Other
1ntolerab1e Nuisance, the
Busting Man.

# If the busiest men and women were
the greatest BUSTERS, plenary absolu-
tion might be granted them, but as
matter of fact bustlers are not the peo-
pie who get through an enormous
amount of work, and live at high pres
sure; when bustlers are busy it is gen.
orally either about other peoples busi-
ness, or else about self imposed, highly
unnecessary work. The bustling man.
is bad enough. We all know him, but
we know also the limitations of his
hustle; he begins early in the morning;
his shaving water and his boots cause
as much fuss and commotion as if he
were going to India or Australia, in
stead of to the city, or, if he lives in
the country, to meet in the next par
ish. Everyone knows there will be no
peace in the house until he is out of
1t, and everyone resigns himself to his
fate, and breathes sigh of relief when
the door closes on the bustler. and in
wardly hopes that he won't return be-
fore evening, when the moment he sets
foot in the house another domestic tor
nado arises and lasts until he has dined
well, and is enjoying his pipe, which,
glory to the tobacco, generally has a
calming effect.
But the bustling woman! No sopor-
ific influences can be brought to bear
on her;. she does not smoke, she has
not time, we almost wish she did, for
she is 10000 times worse than the bust
ling man. Her hustle is boundless; it
is perpetual; it is the only thing about
her that has no limitations; there is no
escape from it; it begins at six o'clock
in the morning, summer and winter, at
which hour she commences operations
by ringing up the servants and disturb
ing everybody else, and it goes on the
livelong day until sleep closes her weary
eyelids at night.-Household Words.

IMPROV WE'D HllIlGHWAY vs.


The principle of the good roads
movement, as advocated by the
League Of American Wheelmen, is
that the common roads Of the coun-
try are as important as the railway
systems, the statement being made by
them and being easily understood
that there is not an ounce Of any COM
modify hauled over the railroads that
is not first transported by wagons
over country roads or city streets. It
does not matter if the commodity is
manufactured articles that are loaded
on cars at the factory. The raw mate
rial has first to be hauled to the fac
tory. But the greatest hauling is
done in the farming districts, and
there it is that good highways are
most needed. r
= The subject has not been given the
attention and support it deserves as
yet for the simple reason that private
capital cannot become interested in
the building of common roads, since
there would be no income from the in
vestment, such as there is in rail-
ways. Municipal, county, state and
the national governments have not
had the issue brought directly before
them in its full significance, because
it is. necessary to first educate the
people to the necessities of the move
ment. This is what is being done by
the wheelmen at the present time, and
it must be said to their credit that
they have enlisted the sympathy and
support of all the prominent farmers
organizations in the movement. With
the two classes working together it is
only a question of time until the
movement will be made political is
sue, and then will come the desired
improvements.
The argument offered in favor of
the improved roads is that they les
sen the cost of repairs, make it pos
sible to haul the largest amount of
goods with the smallest animal power.
save time and increase property valua-
tions. No railroad company would ex-
pect to do business if it's tracks and
roadbed were in such condition as to
make it either impossible to use the
tracks at long seasons of the year or
in using them have to lose great deal
of time and have immense repairs to
make, and yet that is what the farm
ers and others using the common
roads are doing ina comparative way
every day in the year.
They make the most impracticable
attempts at road building and repair
ing and then wonder why there is no
profit in their products, which have
been hauled over bad roads at the
greatest expense. 1t has been esti-
mated that in the states where the
stone roads have been built the cost
of transportation has been decreased
| to 20 per cent. of the former figures
and that the roads pay for themselves
| within few years. 1t has been fur
ther shown that the amount lost in
| the different ways mentioned will
more than pay for the building and
repairs of these roads on the annual
assessments made for them or that it
costs no more each year to have good
roads than it does to have bad ones.

1t Pays to Keep Accounts.

The times are changing as rapidly
in regard to farm management as in
the management of any other business,
and it behooves. the farmer to keep
watch of his operations with the same
keen eye that the merchant uses in
following up every venture to it's close.
1t is impossible to do this thoroughly
without keeping books in which are
recorded the items Of expense, both of
time and money, involved in the pre-
duction of every farm product. Il
needs some care and attention to do
this, and many farmers hate to bring
themselves to such work, but it is pre-
cisely this kind of care and attention
which distinguishes the successful
from the unsuccessful men in every
kind of business.-Farm Journal. -

A Return to False Hair.

An era of false hair seems to be up
on us, if one is to judge by the present
displays in the leading hairdressers'
windows. Such an array Of fringes

what not we have not had since the
days of that terrible fact, the water
