HOW HOGS ARE INFECTED
They Take TubercIes From Milk OF
Diseased Cows.

DR.. S. B. Brimhall, In charge of the
veterinary department of the state board
of health. believes that hogs contract
tuberculosis from drinking the milk of
cows infected by the disease. A large
number Of swine are being condemned for
tuberculosis by the government inspectors,
and it has been found that as a rule they
come from creamery districts, where the
skim milk is fed to young pigs. The
theory is confirmed by the fact that ami
mails only nine months old have the dis
ease in an advanced stage. In many dis
tricts of the state the dairy herds have
never been tested for tuberculosis, and it
is spreading rapidly among the animals.

According to the biennial report of the

Red River valley. In building them 1862,
1865 cubic yards Of earth we're removed, for
which an average of 8.S cents per yard was
paid, and the total cost averaged 81 cents
per yard. It is estimated that more than
/. 900 900 acres OF land have been benefited,
OF which 100000 Is state land. It is claimed
that one ditch in single season saved
the farmers more than the cost of the
whole system. The drainage enables

QUIET AT LAKE PARK
Sunday Picnics VIII Go to Carver
..- and JOrdon.


,...- and JOrdon.
Owing to restrictions liquor selling
imposed BY the new village government of
Lake Park, promoters Of Sunday picniCs
are turning their attention to other sec
lions Of the Minnetonka region. Big
island is being canvassed as a possible
picnic resort. To get to the island re-
quires boat from Solberg's point or Ex-
celsior. Picnic managers will therefore
be forced to make arrangements for
steamer and include it in the fare.
Some OF the railroads are pulling out of
the picnic business this season on account
of lack Of equipment. The increased pas
senger traffic has forced several roads to
borrow cars while awaiting the arrival of
new equipment ordered months ago. This
will result in higher price for special
trains for picnic parties.
The Minneapolis & st. Louis will proba-
bly, favor Jordan and Carver, Mimi, as a
Sunday excursion point this year. Ar
engagements have already been made for
excursions to those towns on every Sum
day in June.

the table. The lemons are made of
yellow crepe paper, stuffed with cot

article to be sold for or 10 cents. A
table with lemon tarts and cakes, lem

lemonade, would swell the receipts.
good deal of merriment could be

A game contest Is ever delighted in,

lemon seeds, and a prize given to the

seeds therein. A lemonade set consist

glasses would be an attractive prize
A lemon ice cream booth wherein a

CLUBR00M STORIES.

Good "club stories are rife about

who Is a member of several clubs

Herald.
The particular fad in which the soul
of this woman delights is that of n.y.
gienic foods and cookery. So much
and so often, in fact, has she dilated
upon topics of this order that the mat
ter has become much of a joke among
her friends. When, therefore, she was
discovered, at the beginning of the
present club season, in the act of
partaking of a most elaborate and
quite unhygienic luncheon. there was
great joy in the hearts of the three
fellow club women who discovered her.
What" they cried, gayly taking
careful note of the salad sandwiches,
caviare toast, grilled lobster and ice
cream set before the woman of pure
food and simple cookery" fame. "Are
you eating such connections as these?
What, we pray, has become of your
hygienic convictions, and how about
the sincerity of the clever and moving
address in behalf of these convictions
to which we listened last week?''
The woman who breaches and does
not practice the "plain living" part
of her avowed creed colored girlishly,
hesitated a moment. and intutized
hasty plan of action. She was, indeed,

A MOTHER OF COURAGE.

She sat in the granstand. waiting for
her first football game to begin, says
the New York Tribune. Her boy had
played it ever since she could remem-
Der, and now he had made his 'varsi-
ty team, which was her varsity, too
her Cornell.
Two of his fraternity brothers" sat
on either side as a bodyguard to her
gray hairs and as a bureau of infor-
nation. They were happier than they
would have been with the prettiest
girl they knew.
She smiled with motherly pride when
she picked him out Of the squad of
red sweatered ''huskes' which at
length trotted out on the field. She
wiped away tear when a Columbia
man fell across the line for a touch
down.
Then she surprised her bodyguard
by muttering under her breath: Hold
EN- hard, fellow!" Twist their necks!"
Push! Push!"
She explained her knowledge of
these strenuous technical detail by
saying that her boy cried out like that
when playing dream games in his
sleep.
She did not faint when he tackled
too hard and failed to rise, although
his white face, with streak of red
blood across the forehead, was star
ing up at her.
You can't hurt my boy" she said
with confidence. He's just doing that
to get wind" So It proved.
He was up and atsit harder than
ever within the time limit The Itha-
cans gained five through tackle, and
lost as many more yards trying to
round the end. Then something hap
pened.
A sturdy youngster shot out of the
tangled elevens and dashed down the
field toward the goal of the blue and
white. He crossed line after line of
whitewash, and finally was over the
last one. the whole pack at his heels.

crowd.
MY boy did it," said the mother,

FOR FAIR ENGLISH GIRLS.

Gentleman Describes Practical
Education.
The benighted English girl is in
fair way to be made wiser. if not hap
pier. A gentleman who evidentl; feels
competent to instruct her purposes
through the London Daily Mail school
for her education in the practical de-
tails of everyday life, says the Youths
Companion.
The pupils at this projected institu-
ton are to be taught how to alight
from an electric car without endan-
gering their own safety and that of
innocent pedestrians. They will be
taught how to open a window and
put up q shade in railroad car; what
kind of shoes to wear to foster theil
health and comfort, and when to wear
them; how to tie a knot other than a
granny" knot, and how to fill foun-
tain pen. Says the enthusiastic pro-
moter of this new educational ven
ture:
I'VE shall teach the art of folding
clothes, both womens and mems GLOW
many women can fold a dresscoat?)
We shall teach the proper method of
doing up umbrellas and trimming
lamps, and opening packing cases and
tin cans, and driving nails and pulling
corks and lighting fires.
I'VE shall also instruct in the care
and feeding of dogs and other ami
mails, and show, for instance, why it
is wrong to give dogs chicken bones.
The theory of sanitation also we shall
teach, of which most women know
nothing at all, and we shall give prac-
tical demonstrations of the effect of
grease on the Innings of pipes, and the
reasons for keeping it as far as possible
out of sinks.
1--WE shall teach economy, false and
true. We shall have lectures on the
prices of all household things, and on
the quantity required for so many or
so few persons, and we shall show that
in most cases the best is the cheapest.
And every girl in my school shall have
a pocket. Purse carrying in the hand
will be forbidden"
No one has dared to suggest that the
American girl needs any such school
ing. If any rash man did she would
probably retort that she had a few lit
tie accomplishments of her own and
that she could teach him as much as
he could teach her. This might be
true, and yet it may be that even
American girls could learn something
at such a school as our English friend
has projected.

A PATRIOTIC DAUGHTER"

It was suggested at the last conven-
ton in Dallas, Tex, by Mrs. w. j.
Behan, president Federated Southern
Memorial Association, that each
Daughter" rise and remain standing
whenever the stirring strains of
Dixie" be heard, whether in the thea
ter, half, in the home, and where not.
This suggestion met with an enthusi-
astic assent from all, says the New
Orleans Times-Democrat. Any enc
who has been in England has seen the
reverence of posture with which God
and an impressive sight it is, whether
in theater or private house.
An especially patriotic Daughter"
sat her down to write a letter the
other day, when, from afar, she heard
the strains of Dixie" She sprang
to her feet and stood with pen poised
and eyes closed, all her pulses a-quiv-
er. 1t was a street banda very good
one is now playing in the streets of
this city-and the tune was admirably
carried, increasing the reverence felt
by the Daughter" The music ceased
presently, and she sat down to her
letter again. She wrote about half
page when the band members, who had
been silently approaching, stopped in
front of the house opposite and began
on Dixie" again. Instantly the young

bowling her heard in tribute to the
Lost Cause. The band played several
stanzas of the gay little air, and, of
course, several repetitions of the
chorus. In about ten minutes they
left off and proceeded on their way.
The Daughter sat down to her desk
and tried to remember what she had
been trying to say in her letter. Just
as she was picking up the rawlings
of her thought and had got started
on a Macaulayan sentence-women
usually write the long way round-the
street band, which had merely turned
the corner. began on Dixie" again,
the strains coming fully over the tops
of the houses into her side window
A little YEARLY, she confesses, she
stood on her feet, picking up her let
ter the while and keeping her eyes
fastened upon it that the matter in
hand should not again escape her. In
about five minutes she permitted her
self to resume its writing.
And did you get it finished at last?"
she was asked, after she related the
incident.

STYLE FOR SERVING TEA.

It is not in the very hight of fash
ion any longer to have afternoon tea
tables in the living room or parlor,
says Harper's Bazaar. At present the
generally accepted custom is to have
the tea tray brought into the room
where the people who will take tea
are gathered and to have it placed on
a small table ready for the purpose.
1t is a much better fashion than to
have the tea table always in evidence,
with the cups and saucers liable to
gather dust.
The best service for afternoon tea
is as follows: There should be in
every well appointed household a small
table which either folds and is kept
1nconspicuously in a corner in the
living room or is brought into the
room by the waitress just before she
brings in the tea tray: or a table
which is used for the tea tray at the
tea hour, and the remainder of the
time has few ornaments or books
on 1t which may be removed easily.
First the waitress spreads a pretty
tea cloth on this table-to be abso-
lutely correct-or she may dispense
with the cloth, and bring in the tray
and put it on the table If the tray
nearly covers it. The table should he
low and convenient for the hostess.
Then the tray is brought in. This
must be perfect in all its details, and
everything absolutely immaculate-the
silver polished and the cups and sau-
GERS all de rigueur. On the tray is a
cloth, and on this hot water kettle,
a teapot, tea caddy filed with very
good tea, and as many cups and sau-
GERS and teaspoons as required.
Then the waitress, having lighted
the small alcohol lamp under the hot
water kettle, retires once more, to re-
appear with the sandwiches, toast or
cake. You have probably seen that
most useful of articles for afternoon
tea called-from our English cousins
the ''curates assistant" 1t is made
of wood or wicker, of any color pre-
ferred, and consists of three round and
fiat shelves and a handle. The maid
puts on one shelf small plates and
napkins: on another a plate of toast
or sandwiches, and cake on the third.
1t is well to provide toast and cake,
or toast and sandwiches, or sand
witches and cake for tea. The cur
ates assistant" is placed near the
hostess. but it is usually the duty of
some one else to pass ii about-in
England this is the privilege of the
curate, hence it's name-and let every
one help herself to what she wishes
to take to accompany the tea. The
hostess, of course, has made the tea
and passed the cups already.
If Won feel this all too elaborate.
dispense with the "curate's assist
ant" and have the maid bring In the
plate OF cake or toast and put IL on
the table by the tea tray On the tea
tray should be a plate with slices Of
thin cut lemon, as well as the little
cream pitcher of cream, as so many
people prefer lemon TO cream in their
tea.

HINTS FOR GIRLS WHO TRAVEL.

One of the first lessons the girl needs
to learn is how to travel without look
ing untidy. To the novice this seems
impossible. All the dust sticks. Her
clothes lost their freshness and she
does not understand the secret of
spending twenty-four hours on the
train without presenting a generally
demoralized appearance at the end of
her journey.
The experienced traveller will always
carry with her cold cream and almond
meal. The latter softens the hard
water and enables her to keep her
hands clean. Cold cream smearsd

be of mohair, which can be brushed
clean in an instant. She should wear
a thin gauze combination suit If the
weather be warm. a heavy one If
necessary, and carry as many more as
the trip demands. For comfort she

the sunny South shocked a crowd OF
women at an afternoon tea the other

afraid to tell a girl you love her, for
fear she will take you seriously, don't

up here is that they all set such a

such low value on the girls that they
are continually paralyzed with fear
lest you take them seriously and get

MAKING sACHETs.

A sachet of long lasting fragrance

lemon peel. The Feelings can be
ground in an ordinary kitchen coffee
mill.
Mix the two powders well together
and over it pour a mixture of one and
a half drachms of oil of lemon peel
and three ounces of oil of bergamot
