Large Audience Greets Miss Carter.

1t was a pleased and appreciative
audience that greeted Miss Mabel Lank-
ton Carter in her rimpersonation of "Mrs.
Wigs of the Cabbage Patch" at the
First Unitarian church, last Friday
evening. That deliciously humorous
story Of Mrs. Wiggs, with now and
then touching bit of pathos, was por-
trayed in a capital manner by Miss
Carter.
The generous and spirited applause
showed how plainly Miss Carter had
won the hearts of her audience, and
after the close of the entertainment there
were frequent expressions of the wishes
of one and all that Miss Carter appear
soon again before Hood River audi
ence.
Miss Carter is graduate of the CO.
lumbia school of oratory, Chicago, and
for the last 70 ur years was dean of the
college of oratory at Willamette univer-
sity, Salem. She left during the week
for Chicago, where she will continue her
studies in post graduate work.
The other mum bers of the program
were generously applauded, particular
ly the solos of Murray Kay, who was
repeatedly recalled. This was Mr..
Kay's first appearance at Hood River
and it is hoped he will be heard soon
again.
Slumber song, by Miss Smith and
Miss Kelsay was sweetly sung, as was
Forget me-not' by the trio, Mrs. Slet
ten, Mrs. Bateham and Miss Smith.

Some Uses of SkimmiIk.

That skimmilk is a useful feed for
all kinds of farm animals is an estab-
lished fact. It pays better, however,
to feed it to the young animals than
to old ones, though the latter use it
to fairly good advantage. The young
ones have stomachs so we'll adapted
to using skimmilk that they can get
more out Of it. with less expenditure
OF digestive energy than any others,
A good many experiments have
been made with it from time to time,
by the way of using it as a food for
mature farm animals Here and there
are men that have fed it to their
mich cows, and in the absence of
other animals to consume it this is a
good use to make Of it. The value in
such a case depends on the market
price that can be obtained for it. In
the case OF using it for cow feed it
will be found necessary to keep it
sweet till so used.
Colts and even mature horses have
been fed on skimmilk. One man
claims that his horses came to like
milk and that less grain was con-
sumed, after the milk began to be fed.
We can easily believe this. The milk
contains good amount of protein
and this of course goes to build up
the muscles and make protein from
grain less necessary.
On all Of our farms the use Of skim
milk for chicken feeding is now recog-
nized, and little urging is necessary
to induce the careful poultry raiser
to feed the fowls all the milk they
will consume. When they cannot
use enough of it on account Of it's
watery nature, it is very easy to make
cottage cheese for them out of the
milk.

The wrong kind of food will put
the body in such diseased condition
that no medicines will cure it. There
is no way but to change food. A man

my stomach, back and head would
throb so I could get no rest at night

II was quite certain the trouble
came from my stomach, but two ply
sicians could not help me and all the
tonics failed and SO finally turned to
food.
when had studied up on food and
learned what might be expected from
leaving off meat and the regular
food I had been living on, felt that
a change to Grape-Nuts would be Just
what was required, so l went to eat

from that time I haven't used bit

Deliver Cream Often.

Reports from the centralized cream.
gathering plants indicate that there is
q good deal of trouble about the Sc
curing OF cream in good condition.
The farmers in many places now have
nand separators, and in others follow
the old practice of setting me milk
to get the cream. They are too busy
in the summer time to drive to the
railroad depot oftener than they have
TO, and this means that in some cases
the cream is a week old before It is
forwarded. The butter makers de.
clare that it is next to impossible to
make good butter out of this cream, or
when 1t Is mixed with the other milk,
as 1t usually is. The problem is a
hard one and it cannot be solved by
any short method. 1t is, of course,
advisable to have the farmers deliver
their cream as often as possible. but
farmer will hardly make a trip to
town If that trip is going to cost him
more for loss in his harvests than the
profits OF the cream will amount to.
1t Is evident that we must depend on
little improvement here and little
Improvement there. With the proper
facilities and with sterilization Of
cream on the farm it should be
brought into a condition where it can
be Kept for few days without injury
to it. If Mr.. Gurler can send milk
from Illinois to France and have it
arrive there sweet aftar ~ dove oor
talnly our farmers can keep their
cream in such good condition that it
will be fit to make butter from a few
days after it is taken from the milk.
We are not advocating few deliveries
OF cream, but know that. there are
many OF our farmers so situated that
they will not attempt to deliver cream
every day, either in summer or win
ter.

Edam Cheese.

Edam cheese is made in Holland
and takes it's name from the town of
Edam. Its manufacture may have
started at that place and so given it
the name, but for the most part it is
made in diaries and not in factories.
There are few of the latter in Hol-
land. The cows are MIXED in the
fields, and the milk hauled to the
houses. The cheese is made in large
wooden tubs and is placed in cup
shaped molds with other cup-shaped
molds on top. This gives the cheese
the shape of a cannon ball.. In the
process of curing, salt is rubbed on
it: from day to day as the cheese is
turned. Edam"i is the great market
where large quantities of this cheese
is sold. It IS piled on the pavement
in The form Of pyramids, where the
purchasers make their bargains with
the sellers. &, Sts

Artists Now Go to Patrons instead Of
Waiting a Call from Them.
1t is no longer regarded as the
proper thing in society to go to a
photograph gallery to have ones pic

at the east have decreed that the ar
lists shall come to the houses of the
sitters, although an extra charge is
involved in the new arrangement.
The men who do this at-home work
must be artists of the first class.
These pictures in the home have reyo.

woman would wear all her jewels and
take her stand before the camera in
her most pretentious frock, but now
these display pictures are tabooed and

Dehorning Calves.

1t is more humane to dehorn calves
by the use OF caustic potash when
the horns are: just starting than it is
to use the saw on the horns after they
have developed. Also, the task is
easier at the earlier period. The op-
GRAFTON with the caustic potash should
be made before the calf is nine days
old. The better time is when the
calf is from two to five days DID,
The hair should be clipped away from
around the horns. A stick of caustic
potash should be rolled in paper, with
one end Of the caustic bare This
should be slightly moistened and the
tips of the horns rubbed for about
fifteen seconds, or until the potash
has made slight impression on the
center of the horn. The treatment
should be given two, three or four
times, according to the age of the
animal and the size of the horns,
about five minutes being allowed to
elapse between applications. If a
little blood appears in the center of
the horn it will then be necessary only
to give a slight rubbing with the pot
ash. We advise all of our readers
that hive calves to adopt this method,
rather than to wait till the animals
grow and have to use the more painful
method. It is believed that the caus-
tic potash method is nearly or quite
painless.

The Worlds Wheat Crop.

That the worlds wheat crop this
year is to be full average now
seems certain. The high prices paid
for wheat in the markets of the United
states are not caused by a shortage
IN the world supply, and as long as
we export wheat, or have a surplus to
export, the crop of the world is what
will finally determine the price at
which we must sell both the exporta-
bic surplus and the main body used
1or nome consumption. The crop is
ABOUT the same as that of 1902 and
1913 for all practical purposes. One
foreign estimate is that the crop this
year will be 3,064,00O,0O0 bushels. The
crop of last year was estimated at
from 3,0S7,00O,000 bushels to $3.50 ,O00,-
0OO, a margin so wide as to throw
much doubt on the correctness of the
higher figure. Taking the world as
whole the yield tends to uniformity:
for when there is a great loss in one
country there is generally great gain
in some other country to make it
good. The crop of 1902 was estimated
at from 3,O29,600,0O0 to 3,155, ZOO, 900
bushels. Even difference of a hun
dred million bushels cuts little figure
IN the wheat crop of the world. being
only between three and four per cent.
It will be seen that we cannot hope
for world price very much in ex-
cess of the world price of recent
years. The prices for wheat in ex.
porting nations tend to gravitate to.
ward the world price, less cost OF
transportation.

Rusted Wheat.


We have received from H. H.
Grover, Ransom county, North Dako'
ia, sample of rusted wheat. A note
accompanying the sample says: ''This
is sample of wheat we thought two
weeks ago was all right. Perhaps it
is fair sample of Fife wheat in Ran
som county, N. D." He further says
that this wheat has been damaged at
least 80 per cent? while macaroni
wheat is free from rust.
The moral to this should be to dip
the seed wheat every year in a. solu-
ton of formalin or give it a treat
ment of blue stone. The rust comes
into the wheat by means Of the seed
and the minute plant that bears the
smut is growing in the wheat plant.
Suddenly field becomes black with
smut, and the farmer .imagines that
1t has blown into the field in the air.
The truth was that it was in the field
all the. time and was growing in the
wheat stalk, but was unseen All at
once millions of the plants began to
bear the minute seeds that go to make
up the smut on the grain, and then,
for the first time, the farmer realized
that smut was in his grain. The seeds
OF the wheat have been deprived of
their nourishment by the smut plant
and that is why the yield is cut short.
Black patches are seen all over the
stalk of the wheat and these indicate
the number of the plants that are talk
ing the substance from the wheat
plant. The sap is diverted to feed
this parasitic multitude. Our CORE
spondent says that two weeks ago the
wheat was thought to be all right.
That is just the trouble with the
progress of the smut. 1t is insidious
in its nature. The only way to fight
it is to consider all seed affected and
treat it dingly.-Farmers' Re.
