wOODUFF RESIDENTS COMPLAIN OF
MICHIGAN-sTREET SEWER.
Meeting of Coal Conference Commits
tee VIII BE Held mt Mayors once
municipal News.

A delegation of Woodruff Place residents
called on the Board of Public Works yes
terday to protest against the East Michi-
gan street sewer. The board heard the
complaints Of the delegation and took the
matter under advisement. Nathan Morris
was the spokesman of the demonstrators.
IN effort will be made to e~qualize the as
against the property owners af-
fected. Mayor Bookwalter announced that
the city would pay between four and five
thousand dollars of the cost of the sewer
and was enabled to do so by a saving in
bridge and other city work. The property
owners were pleased that such would be
applied TO the cost out of the city treasury,
but many of them seemed to think that
this sum was too small. The matter will
not be decided for two weeks, Mr.. Logsden,
OF the Board of Public Works, said.

The importance of Keeping farm build
ings well painted is apparently not appre-
eiated as 1t should be. In travelling about
the country great carelessness In this re-
spect is noticeable on every hand. Neat
looking houses. barns and other buildings
denote thrift and good management. while
d~ilapidated, weather-worn structures give
the place an air Of neglect or poverty. ac-
cording TO the degree of decay. II a farm
er cares nothing for looks, he should keep
his buildings well painted. because IL Is
good business to do so. Good paint i'm
convenient form for use is now put up and
sold at reasonable prices. Any one with
sufficient energy to rub the paint well into
the weather checks, and interest enough in
his work TO keep the paint thin. can do a
good job of painting. A thoroughly good
brush Is necessary: this a sure case Of the
best being the cheapest. as IL viii not only
enable a man to do more and better work.
but a good brush will last longer than a
cheap one. The fall is the best time to do
outside painting, as il then has all winter
in which TO harden s-lowly-whereas, paint
put on in spring or suneu.er Is sometimes
injured with the hot sun while IL In fresh

drawn as to the relative feeding value of
the feeding material. Every practical feed
er well knows that IL a COW has a suffi-
GENTLY large ration-that is. If she is fed
a full ration of digestible nutrients con-
tanning a fair proportion Of the c~arbonace-
Gus and nitrogenous-she will respond very
slowly to a change Of feed excepting the
quantity of digestible material is reduced
or a change Is made from dry TO succulent,
or the reverse; and TO think of determining
the relative feeding. value of any feeding
stuff in a ten-day trial would be considered
puerile by the average intelligent feeder.
From the same region of our vast ter
ritory comes this item of COW lore. Fore
ten days typhoid germs were given to a
COW in her drinking water and none were
found in her milk or urine, and the con-
clusion was that In a healthy cow the
digestive organs destroy the typhoid germs:
there is no danger OF milk contamination
We hope the conclusion is conclusive, but
how would ii work out in actual farm
conditions such as one at times meets,
where cows are compelled for months to
drink contaminated water? The intelli-
gent dairyman will hesitate some time be-
fore he will give milk to his baby, or any
one else's baby, from cows drinking dam
gerous germ-infected water.

TALKS BY s. D. GORDON.


1.-The Price of Power was the subject of
8. d. Gor6on's quiet hour talk last night
at the First Baptist Church. Mr.. Cor
don has a clear, convincing manner of
speaking, and his talk last night was very
much enjoyed by the large audience pres
ent. The speaker gave a number of IL
Illustrations showing how costly power is.
Mr.. Gordon said that the price of power
is the ability of a man to say no to him
self. fans inside nature is fond of show,
but shrinks from criticism and loves to
nave it's own way. the speaker said. This
nature has a strong appetite for material
things. and if satisfied the best motives in
life will be dragged down. To secure pow
err and live a Christian life the individual
must take up the cross. In every ones
heart, Mr.. Gordon said, there Is a cross and
a throne. If self is on the cross then
Christ is on the throne, but If self Is on
the throne then Christ is forgotten.
Tonight Mr.. Gordon will discuss The
Personality OF Power" Tomorrow after
noon his subject will be Something
