The hired man had had the milking
stool kicked from under him several
times and the milk pail battered into
scrap tin and he said he would be glad
to try the recipe. So he put on pill

monitory symptoms.

CURE FOR A KICKING COW.
There Are Many Prescriptions, but the
Subjoined Is Recon- m ended.

There Are Many Prescriptions, but the
Subjoined Is Recon- m ended.
An old farmer-old enough to know
better-says that the way to cure a
cow of kicking is to catch her by the
leg just as she is about to kick. She
should be grasped firmly, as close to
the hoof as possible, and the grip must
not relax until the kicking impulse is
over. OF course the kick must be
headed off, as it were, and not met
half way, nor even three-quarters way.
1t is good idea to get the hired man
to accustom himself to this simple
fact, but at the same time it must not
be forgotten that a good hired man
can easily be spoiled by careless mat
tention to directions
At first it might be well to use a
cowcatcher or possibly an ordinary
fender, together with catcher's mask
and padded gloves. Naturally 1t will
be well to conceal your appearance
from the cow as much as possible, be-
cause SO many cows are timid and
easily scared by strange objects. Then
when the COW slightly raises her hoof
and shivers apprehensively along the
ankle don't wait for further develop
ments, but grasp the lower leg firmly
and hang on for dear life.

accede to the numerous applications we
have received from persons desiring to
purchase pianos on the cooperative
club plan, which was so popular some
time ago. This plan, owing to the ex-
ceedingly low prices and easy terms it
offered, created such sensation and
widespread discussion at the time it
was originally inaugurated, that further
explanation seems unnecessary. Many
maintained then that it was simply i'm
possible for us to sell such fine pianos
at the prices asked. Investigation,
however, proved the absolute truth of
every one of our statements, and our
clubs became so immensely popular
that in five weeks We had a member
ship of four hundred. Three delivery
teams and six men could not deliver
the pianos fast enough to buyers. The

principle as the former ones, which is
