HIS IDEA OF CHILDREN.

Chicago University Professor Be-
 Ifeves In Quality, Not In Quantity.
 Three notable addresses were deIiv- cred before the Illinois Federation of Women's Clubs at Cairo, ILL. the other day. Wilbur s. Jackman, dean of the school of education of Chicago uniyeH- sity, discussed the "Ideal School" He criticised the bare, ugly schoolrooms that stand out in marked contrast to our modern churches, clubrooms, lodge halls and public buildings and the poor ventilation in the schools. Referring to the subject of race suicide, he said:
 "The ideal school will be somewhat expensive, but you must afford the money or you must not have the chill dren. The highest evolution is In quail ity, not quantity. am not particularly disturbed by the hysteria of our stren-. uous friends regarding race suicide. Tn the course of evolution believe that the race has passed through and be- yond the stage of the rabbit and the rat. am reminded of the fable of the owl and the eagle. The former up braided the latter for having but two young ones while she herself had four Yes replied the eagle, but mine are eagles believe that the race needs eagles"

The Thanksgiving Bird Crop.

Often at this time of year, When Thanksgiving drawing near, We've been told there's shortage in the is turkey crop
 That the birds we highly prize Are so scarce that cost will rise To point where many must that viand drop.
 Many times in years gone by We have heard this same old cry And, believing it, have been by sorrow stirred,
 But when came the time to feast, All, from highest to the least, Gazed in rapture attthe stuffed and roast ed bird
 Now we hear the tale once more, AS so often told before. And 'tis spreading far and wide through out the land. On the farms where turkeys grow Those who raise them say they know There will not be half enough to meet de- mand.
 We are told in accents sad That the season has been bad, Cold .and rainy weather getting in hard knocks;
 That by thousands turkey tots Fell as victims of the swats Which so often decimate the feathered flocks.
 For these reasons we are told. But few turkeys will be sold At the season when we'll all desire to buy,
 And tis furthermore declared, So few turkeys being spared, That the price for them will run extreme ly high.
 But we've often heard such tales, And in spite of all the walls Tn due time the birds so favored would be found,
 So we think that now. as then, We'll have cause to smile again When the time for eating turkey comes around. Theodore H. Boice in Pittsburg chroni- cle-Telegraph.

PRIZES FOR PUMPKIN PIES.
A DtMcWIt Question Decided mt s
 Missouri Pumpkin Show.

Difficult Question Decided mt a
 MissOurt Pumpkin Show.
 If there is anything in the cooking of which the Missouri farmers wife ex- cells, it is pumpkin pies, says the Kan sas City Journal An incident at the Skidmore Epunkin show recently in- dicates that the oncoming generation of farmers wives will be fully equal to their mothers in this important par ticular. W. J. Skidmore, Skidmore's s leading citizen, offered a prize to the country maiden who should make the best pumpkin pie, he to be the judge. Six pies were exhibited. When Mir. Skidmore took bite of the first, he mentally decided that it would take the prize. When he bit the second, he decided the prize would have to be halved. When he bit the third, he con- cluded the prize would have to be di- vided into three parts.
 The upshot was that MT. Skidmore was not able to make a selection. In- stead, however, of dividing the prize into six parts, he ruled that each was so good as to deserve a prize, and so he gave six prizes instead of one. Even the New England nince pie has to go way back and sit down when the Mis- souri pumpkin pie marches upon the fahIo

Winning of Marlborough Check.
 The persistence of some painters is proved by a story that is going the rounds of the London studios, says the New York Press A young artist, poor and unknown, boasted in a crowd of his fellows that he would paint the portrait of one of the twelve leading womenfin London within year. There were many takers of the bet. The art 1st took the next train for BlenheiTn palace, where the young Duchess of Marlborough was staying. Note after note was sent to her, but the artist re- ceived no reply. One day he bribed the gardener with couple of shillings to let him enter by hedge. When he was in the garden the former Miss Wander bilt appeared. He jumped from behind a lilac bush, said he was struggling and poor and begged permission to paint her portrait. The duchess laughed and said she could not spare the time for posing Then she added that if he left some finished work with her agent in London she would leave a check. It is said of the persistent youth that if he did not paint the Marlborough DOT trait he at least received a Marlbor. ough check.

Judging from the number of wives complaints and confessions published every week in the Scotsman, golfers must be ranked among the most neg lectful of husbands, says London ca ble dispatch to the Chicago Inter Ocean. Golf, the writers assert, has paralyzed the enterprise and energy of many breadwinners. The time former ly given by the golfer to the compan- ionship of wife and family is spent now, it is declared, on the links. His conversation is confined to mere club room gossip. He has no interest in lit erature, save that of the golfing papers and magazines.

 On Sunday Oct, IS, while the wind was blowing very hard, both doors of the pilot house on the launch Widgeon, Dr. Cuskaden's boat, were blown open and the wind carried out the tie, which was hanging in the pilot house. When the boat reached New Castle, Dr. Gus kaden wired back that he had lost the pin and offered a reward.
 Since that time the shore had been crowded at low water by people search ing for the gem, but it had eluded the eyes of all until Dr. Summerill spied it among lot of weeds and grass.

 married Senator.
 ''The marriage of Senator William Morris Stewart of Nevada shows the force of good example, when the ex- emplar is a person whom wise people follow" recently commented Senator Depew. the first of the senators who a short time ago married young wives, says the New York American. Only recently read the statement of a wealthy wtdower in the west that my letter of congratulation to Senator Platt prior to the latter's marriage had so moved him as to lead to a decision on his part to follow the example of Senators Platt and Depew.
 "His sons bitterly opposed a second marriage. He settled a sufficient sum of money on each, however, to prevent further opposition and married.
 4'I am afraid will be responsible for more mature connubial bliss in this country than falls to the lot, ordinarily of any one. noticed during the clos ing days of last session that Senator Stewart was looking at me more ire quently than would be justified by any other interest he would have except that he was catching the marrying habit
 Yesterdays affair shows that hewas both catching it and was caught. judge by the time of the presidential election, with Platt and Stewart and myself married, there will not be sin gre unmarried senator in the circle.
 Senator Stewart is one of the most genial and charming of men. He has been over thirty years in the senate and has an accumulation of wisdom, anecdote and wit from long association in such a prominent way in public af- fairs that he is sure to be fascinating personality in the domestic circle Putting that together with all I hear about the lady, they are both to be con graduated

TIMELY DAIRY NOTES.

Buy milk cans and pals that have
smooth seams. 1t is difficult mat
ter to keep any other kind properly
cleaned.
Continue the grain ration for
awhile after the cows are on grass.
By the way, would it not pay you to
continue some grain right along?
If the barnyard is full of mud or
manure, rather than have the COWS
wade through it, draw plenty of
straw and let them tramp over that.
Warm bran mashes and warm
water to drink the first "a hours
after calving will often save COW
from trouble and start her safely on
her period of usefulness.
Every farmer, and especially the
dairy farmer, should raise clover,
both to maintain the fertility of his
soil and supply one of the most valu-
able foods for his animals. =t,
Large, clean windows, and lots of
them, on the sunny side of the barn
are the salvation of the young calves
and the surest safeguard against tu-
berculosis. The germs of this dis
ease are killed by a short exposure
to sunlight.

only intent on filling them with some
thing which will pass for food and

CAUSE OF SOUR MILK.
CAre1ess Milking and Loose Methods
4 OF Handling Are the Principal
Sources Of Loss.

: Milk sours because in the process of
growth and multiplication of the
bacteria the milk sugar is changed to
tactic acid. When there is enough
acid present to be apparent to the taste
the milk is said to be sour. Bacteria,
like corn or any higher form of plants
require food, moisture and sufficient
heat in order to grow and multiply.
Milk has the necessary moisture, is
perfect food and is usually at the right
temperature for rapid growth of bac-
terra.
Since the keeping quality of milk
bears direct relation to the bacteria
which gain access, it is important to
prevent their getting into the milk.
The udder and adjacent parts of the
body which are much shaken during
milking is one of the chief sources of
Infection, while the dust of the stable,
the hands and clothes of the mixer to-
gether with the pals and cans used are
only slightly less important sources.
Experiments show that milking in a
stable where the circulation of air can
carry the dust out; whipping the udder
with damp cloth, and scalding uten-
sils with live steam or boiling water,
will not only reduce the bacterial con-
tent, but increases the keeping
quality of the milk materially. A cov-
cred milk pail, with only small open
ing to milk into, reduced the number
of germs falling into the pail one
fourth as compared with a common
pail, and the milk kept sweet 20 hours
longer. Immediately cooling after
milking is next in Importance. Milk
allowed to stand two hours without
cooling contained % times as many
germs as when milking was finished,
while that which was cooled to 81 de-
grees, only had four times as many at
the end of two hours. This emphasizes
the Importance of quick and thorough
cooling.-Midland Farmer.

The Type and the Feed.

No hog, beef steer or milch cow
can respond to liberal feeding unless
the conformation or type is such as
to favor production of the special
item for which it is fed. Every feed
er should know the several types of
live stock at a glance.
