handsome face was esteemed a great
advantage. Today the reverse is True
Those still youthful can remember as
tinctly when it was next to 1mposslpie
for a homely girl to get a SITUATION.
Good looks were insisted upon IN type
writer's and stenographers, and mer-
chants were then under the impress
sion that pretty clerks brought trade.
It took some time to explode that loea.
The pretty clerks certainly

would buy a 1ve-cent paper OF pins
and then firt away three or four dol
lars worth of time, while the women
who constitute four-fifths OF the pa

dependence was to be placed In the
clerks themselves. The handsomest
girls were pretty sure to De vain n
"touchy,' and when one proved really
valuable she was morally certain to
get married at the very time her serv-
ices were most needed. So practical
men began to see that pretty clerks
did not pay, as a cold business propo-
sition, and the same discovery was
presently made at the offices. Type
writing bellies made more trouble than
they were worth. They demoralized
their fellow-employes and created no
end Of jealousy and bitterness and
friction. In many cases, perhaps In
most, the poor girl wasn't in the least
to blame. She couldn't help being
good to look at, and was probably try

things that count in business nova
days and a few years ago a big reaction
against beauty set in, and now pretty
faces are at a discount.

Prof. Joseph B. Lindsey Of the Hatch
Experiment Station SAYS: Digestion
is the changing of feeds in the stomach
and intestines into soluble and diffusi-
bic substances. that can be taken up
by the blood. The process briefly
stated, is as follows. The feed is
chewed in the mouth. and thoroughly
moistened by the saliva. The moisten-
ing of the feed thus enabling it to be
easily swallowed-is the principal
value of this secretion. The stomach
of the ruminant has four divisions. The
slightly chewed feed passes to the
large first stomach or paunch, and
then into the smaller second division.
The food, thus softened, is returned
from the second stomach to the mouth
and more thoroughly mas+icated and
then passes to the third stomach. This
third stomach has numerous folds, be-
tween which the food is pressed. and
the soluble portions directly resorbed.
1t then passes into the fourth stomach
where the ordinary process of diges-
ton begins in the same manne as in
animals having a simple stomach. The
feed is here subjected to considerable
motion and Is acted on by the so-called
gastric juice, the active principles OF
which are pepsin ami hydrochloric
acid. This action of these substances
changes the protein into a soluble form
called peptone. Neither the fat nor
the carbohJ drates undergo any change
in the stomach.
Small amounts of some kinds of pro-
tein are so changed In the stomach as
to be taken directly into the blood,
But by far the larger part Of the food
now termed chyme, goes from the
stomach into the intestines, to be fur
Iher acted upon. The digestive fluids
OF the intestines are the bile or gal
of the liver, the pancreatic juice of the
pancreas, and the intestinal juice. Thu
chief use of the gall is to divide thu
fat into very minute globules i. e. tt
emulsify it. The bile also aids in thu
resorption Of the fat. The pancreati'
juice contains a ferment called trypsi1
which acts powerfully upon the vari
Gus forms of protein, changing an.
that escape the action of the pepsil
Of the stomach, into peptone, and still
/ further converting a part of the pep
tone into other simpler substances
Another, no less important ferment
the ptyalin, which converts a consid
cradle part of the starch and simila
/ carbohydrates into sugar (maltose)
t The pancreatic secretion also acts i
the same way as does the bile of tn
liver Upon the fat, bringing it into
very finely divided condition.
The action of the intestinal secretio
is not fully understood. 1t contains
5 however, a small amount of ptyaliI
s which changes starchy matters int
: sugar.
In addition to the several secretion
: mentioned, various bacteria play
n considerable part in the process of d
p gestion in the small intestine. The
S decompose or break down more or les
protein, convert starch into sugar, an
decompose the c~ellulose which hithert
T has not been acted upon, into a variet
of simpler substances.

rrnned Meat. for the Army.

Army officials have resumed the pur.
chase of canned roast beef for the use
of the troops in foreign countries. Mai.
w. L. Alexander, purchasing commits
sary officer of the department Of the
lakes, called for bids Sept. % for
furnishing the government with 3d.
900 two-pound cans of roast beef. To
insure a wholesome product and to
prevent a repetition of the scandals
which followed the shipment of large
quantities of stores to CUBA a year ago
rigid specifications have been adopted
by the government for the guidance OF
packers in preparing the meat. Maj.
Alexander will also receive proposals
for supplying 42S,200 pounds of bacon
in crates, 23,436 pounds of bacon in
| three-quarter-pound cans and 23.472
pounds of bacon in nine-pound cans.
September % was the date set for bids
to be opened for $4,000 pounds of ham.

When is the profitable laying season
for hens? Undoubtedly in the fall and
winter months, when the eggs bring
in excess of 20 cents per dozen. And
with proper handling it is not at all
difficult to get a large supply of eggs
in the fall. The method is to have
March and April pullets and push them
forward rapidly on stimulating feeds.
One poultryman says that he always
expects to get 60 eggs per hen from
October to February 1st, and sell them
at 80 cents per dozen, or $1.50. This
pays for keeping the hen a year and
leaves SO cents profit, besides all the
eggs he gets subsequently,. These
same eggs if sold in the spring at
1914 cents per dozen would bring only
65 cents and leave the question of
croft a very hard one to solve. With
out doubt the man that wants t0,make
O out of laying hens must get 8

pulp into one saucepan and the skins
into a preserving kettle. Cook the
pulp until it is soft, and then put 1t
through a colander to remove the
seeds. Put the pulp with the skins
and allow one and one-half pounds Of
sugar to every four pounds of fruit.
Place the kettle over the fire and heat
slowly until the mixture ZONES to a
boil. Cook five minutes and turn into
heated glass jars and seal. Grapes
cooked in this manner make delicious
pies during the winter.

Dairy Notes.

It is difficult for a creamery to thrive
in a community where good farm
papers do not circulate. The dairy
man, that is. the mix producer, must
be a man well-read if he is to produce
good milk and in sufficient quantities
to make him a profitable patron Of the
creamery. 1t is to the interest of the
creamery manager to raise the level of
intelligence among his patrons in every
way in his power. He should see that
they get hold of the best literature re-
lating to the work Of the farm.
The owners of creameries, whether
individual or cooperative, should see
to it that the buildings of the estab-
lishments are kept neatly painted.
This has a moral effect on the patrons
and serves as strong backing to the
ambitious butter-maker, who wants to
get only clean cream taken from clean
milk. To a certain extent all things
are bound together in the creamery,
and it is difficult to elevate n kind
of service without lifting the whole
mass. The patron that delivers milk
to a shabby butter-maker standing in
the door of a shabby creamery will
instinctively form the opinion that al
most any kind of milk is good enough
to take to that place.
