come from the corner of the pen. In
rushed the old bear. Hiram pulled u
string, and down fell the door of the
pen. Hiram climbed down from the
tree as pleased and happy as if he had
done something to be proud of.

And he swelled out his chest, like q

Hiram sold the bear to the circus
agent for more money than he could
have earned in three months. The next
day he initiated the cry of a wildcat
kitten in distressful circumstances,
with the result that in less than an
hour he had small, but indignant, fe-
male wildcat in the pen. Hiram was
the happiest man in Pike county, and
began planning what he would do with
al the money he saw coming.
"'You've made good bundle now,'
I told him, and it's time to cash in and
get out of the game. Animals with

Sure enough, as soon as he gave the

Talk about an angry bear. She start
ed up the tree with the air of a bear
who was determined to give at least one
person lesson on the evil of trif1ing
with the affections of respectable
mother bears. Hiram didn't wait for
explanations, but hunted for higher
limb. Pretty soon he found one which
would hold him, being a light man,
but wasn't strong enough for an ex-
tra-sized angry bear. For minute
Hiram seemed safe, though far from
happy. The bear was puzzled, but gave
every Indication of being willing to
wait for Hiram as Long as he found
it convenient to stay at the end of
that limb.

Bear evidently explained to Mrs. Wild
cat the manner in which Hiram was
trying to play on their affections.
Then the old bear planted herself at
the foot of the tree and waited devel-
opments, while the wildcat went up
having an argument with Hiram.
"And it was plain that Hiram was
about to collide with the real thing.
The branch he was on was plenty
strong enough for the wildcat, and
she wasn't wasting any time. Hiram
waited until the wildcat was within
a couple of feet of him. Then he let
out yell, slid off his branch and came
crashing to the ground. For fear he
might be lonely the wildcat came with
him, leaping on his shoulders, and do
ing her best with her claws to keep
him from getting blase.
"Mrs. Bear was waiting for the
couple, but, although hadn't approved
of Hiram's scheme, didn't want him
to furnish a meal for justly enraged

didn't hurt the bear, but she took alarm
and shuff1ed off in reluctant sort Of

couple of parting digs, and ducked, too,

PROFIT IN CALVES.
Rules for Taking Care of Winter-Born
Animals That Have Always
Brought Good Luck.

Those who conduct winter dairying
on truly profitable scale always have
q portion of their herd coming new
mich early in the winter months. What
should be done with the resulting
calves that come TO us in this incle-
ment season of the year? 1t is not wise
to kill them for their skins, which will
hardly pay for the labor expended in
removing the hides; neither is it ex-
pedient to attempt to raise them neg
lectfully. The writer has universally
had good luck" with winter-born
calves by adhering to the following
general plan:
Male calves not intended for raising,
either as steers or bulls, l have profit
ably converted into veal. There is new
er time when a good veal calf will
not sell readily for cash or its equiva-
lent. Do not, however, let them suckle
the cows, nor feed them on whole milk.
This way of making veal is never truly
profitable to dairyman. Feed on
skinned milk with the addition of
cooked corn meal or oil meal. If the
SKINNED milk is fed warm the animals
will relish it better and fatten enough
faster to amply pay for the trouble in
volved.
The place in which they are housed
will have much to do with successful
result. This should always be apart
from the mich cows and where the
latter cannot see or hear them. The
calves quarters should be extra warm,
as the young creatures cannot stand
the same degree of cold that more ma
ture cattle can. A too cold apartment
is one reason why many make a failure
with winter-born calves. Provide bed
dig literally and feed literally and reg
ularly.
Choice heifer calves not designed for
fattening but for raising into future
cows, should be kept separate from
their veal brothers and sisters, with of
course less oleaginous and more nitro
genous food provided. Ones aim should
be to keep them in thrifty, growing
condition, which, by right manage
ment, can be as readily accomplished
in winter as in summer. Calves so
reared, when warm weather comes will
be in position to go onto grass and de-
velop into fine thrifty yearlings. Ohio

be made of size to fill the require
ments of the feed lot. The feed
trough, b, is at the lower side of the
building, under the shed roof, which
is merely continuation of the feed
er roof The upper half of the build
ing contains the grain. The floor of
the grain bin, a, is built at an angle
as shown, so as to slide the grain
down to the opening into the trough.
This opening extends the whole
length of the trough and is about
one inch wide-wide enough to allow
the cattle to lick out the grain when
the pressure above does not force it
out. There will be but little of the
grain at time in the trough, but
that little will be Immediately re-
placed as soon as eaten. If hogs fol-
low the feeders, openings can be made
to allow them to enter the building
under the grain bin, which will make
an excellent hog house. The door for
shoveling in the grain, C, is on the
upper side, just beneath the caves.
Grain can be put in by the wagon
load. e. Irwin, in Farm and Home.

ADULTERATED FOODS.
Arsenical Butter Colors, Highly In
furious to Health, Discovered
in Many Samples.

The Breeders Gazette has been COM
piling some figures from recent re-
port of the Ohio dairy and food COM
missioner and makes the following ex-
hibit:
Of the total of 1,471 samples of food
collected in the open market By the
Ohio dairy and food commissioner, un-
der the new pure food law of the state,
919 were found to contain adulterants.
In many instances the adulterants
were highly injurious antiseptics, and
coal tar coloring, which is very detri-
mental to digestion, was often detect
ed. Of Is samples of coffee only two
were pure. One sample contained only
seven per cent. coffee, and another
none at all, while in no case was there
more than 60 per cent. of the real berry
present. Of % samples of cheese 10
were not pure. In one sample 80 per
cent. of cottonseed oil and lard was
found. In second so per cent of for
eign fat and in a third no less than 81
per cent. of mixed fats and oils were
found. As rule the filed cheese con-
tanned only 80 per cent. of foreign fat.
Of many samples of ''pure fruit jam"
every one of them was adulterated; all
contained salicylic acid, and all were
artificially colored. Raspberry jelly
was found to be made of apples and
glucose. The commissioners report is
couched in scathing terms, and it is to
be hoped that the punishment of the
dishonest manufacturers may be made
to fit the crime.
It is to be noticed that the report for
the first time rebukes the use of the
present arsenical colors found in but
ter, and justly speaks of its true char
acter Presently we shall have more
of such reports from other states, and
then the country will soon be ripe to
demand restrictive legislation. Let the
good work continue. Down with
arsenical colors!
