CHS LEAF YEAR PROPOSAL


certain western senator. whose
name was recently included in q list OF
eligible widowers and bachelors Of the
senate. has received an application
from the state of Kansas. The lady
puts the marital proposition in very
frank manner. all Of which she proba-
bly, justifies because this is leap year
She writes:
Dear Senator: l read you are ons
of tho widowers of the senate who
would more than likely be the one who
would be next to get married. Now,
] write you this to ask you. II you
are not engaged to any lady. II you
would consider myself as q candidate
for that sacred trust, / am q widow,
IS years old, and should like q good
and loving husband, one whom could
love and trust. I find life too lone
some to live without good man. You
may think this very impertinent in me
to write you, but l assure You I am no
adventures, only one who Is SO lonely
and there are no eligible men In this
town.
II will wait with patience your an
swer; then will tell you more of my
self and who am"
The senator's response to this tender
missive was written by his secretary,
who is an unfeeling man and fully
capable of slaIhming the door in the
face Of hope.

PROPER CARE or THE CALF.


The low price of bssf cattle makes II
undesirable to keep COW simply for
the calf that she produces, and for this
reason It Is gradually dawning upon the.
thoughtful farmer that he must get
proht from the COW above the calf she
produces, says the Rural World. And
to do this be must have cattle, even for
beef. that are pretty strong In milk-giv-
ing qualities. 90 that her milk can be
creamed and the calf reared on skim
milk. ;.
1t is not necessary to give the calf
whole milk moro than, one week; the Sec
-ond week It can take half whole milk
and half skim. and the third week 1t can
be given skim milk only. Itshould not
remain with the dam more than ono
day, SO thatit will readily learn to drink
from the pail. During the first week It
may be fed three times day. giving
from three to four pints OF its dams
milk at each feeding. The quantity
should not be Increased until the fourth
week. and then by only about one pint
at a feed. The feeding should be done
with strict regularity, both as to time Of
feeding and quantity given.
A calf does not know Il has enough, SO
the responsibility rests with the feeder.
Great care should also be taken about
the temperature OF the milk, and 1t
should be given clean tin pail Never
feed calves out Of trough, 40 It win
cause scours and other disorders II
scours should develop, put . half tea
spoonful of zenoleum In q couple Of
messes Of milk.
The milk should be gradually Increased
so that by the time 1t is three months
old 1t will receive about ten pints at
feed. As soon as 1t will take 1t. give q
little oats or bran, or mixture Of equal
parts OF them, but do not give moro
than 1t will eat up clean. 1t should also
have little fine hay Of good quality.
Success does not depend so much upon
quantity OF feed as 1t does upon method
Of feeding. including regularity. Care
should also be taken to not expose the
young calf to cold rains, damp quarters
or hot sun, fruitful sources of indiges-
ton, collie. etc. A Calls future useful
ness largely depends upon the manner in
which it is developed during the first six
months. II carried through this critical
period in thrifty condition, the chances
are that it will prove satisfactory for the
object for which it is reared.

4 CHARMING SHADE TREE.
Norway Maple II Beautiful and
should Have More Recognition
in the West.

Norway maple (Acer platanoides) has
been for many years favorite for en-
bellhhing parks, boulevards and ave-
nues In this country and In Europe.
It h. found from Norway to Italy, and
in central and southern Russia. 1t
was introduced into Britain in 1853. and
later imported into the United States,
and has been widely distributed in states
north Of Maryland.
II thrives in almost any soil, from
sandy 70 rocky and clay, where the loca-
ton b satisfactory for any tree. even
in Ne paved streets of smoky cities,
though its spreading habit of growth
makes It undesirable for narrow city
streets. The whole beauty OF the tree

Banana shortcake.

A recipe said to be delicious is ba-
mana shortcake. Make rich tea bis
cult crust, bake in jelly cake tins IN
not too thick layers. When done,
split open with forks and butter whilc
hot, three layes being enough for one
cake. The two bottom layers and one
top make the best shape. Take about
three good-sized thoroughly ripe ba-
nanas and shred finely with fork.
Spread q layer of the fruit on the
crust, adding the least bit of salt. and
sprinkle well with powdered sugar
Add the next layer In the same way.
On the last one spread fruit very
thickly well mixed with sugar. SO as
to form sort of icing. Serve with
soft custard favored with vanilla IN.

LEAVES OF NORWAY MAPLE.

Enthusiastically in all directions; 1t
wild grow 40 to 70 feet high, and spread
to circumference greater than the
height. The foliage appears early in
the spring, and is dense and rich in
green. The trees cast shadow in the
first week of hot weather, and appear in
fun leaf when the elm's leaves are not
half grown. At this time the blossoms,
borne in racemes of yellow, attract the
attention.
The Norway maple, while one of the
first to appear in full leaf, is one of the
last to part with its foliage in the fall,
and the shade cast by their yellowish-
green, leaves is refreshing under hot
October sun.
There are three varieties Of the Nor
way maple, Of strong habit, that make
very beautiful, large-sized lawn trees.
Good effect is produced by permitting
them to branch very low. SO the branches
may touch the ground. The three vari-
cites referred to are:

GIVE THE BIRDS A SHOW.
After All Il Said and Done They Are
About the Best Friend Of the
Fruit Grower.

The birds are frequently a great
nuisance to the man that grows a lit
tie fruit. With the man that grows
. great deal of fruit there is nothing
to complain of. The towns and cities
In some of our states have encouraged
the birds till 1t is impossible for the
man who has two or three raspberry,
currant or blackberry bushes to get
any fruit at all. The writer had .
small plantation Of raspberries. but
finally dug It out, as the birds every
year took all the fruit. He has other
small fruit In larger quantities, and
keeps this because he has enough so
that the birds can take some and
there will still be good margin left
for the cultivator. We have heard
men rage against the birds. One man
says that II there Il any one bird that
should be shot 1t is the robin. and he
practices shooting robins on his farm
because they attack his fruit. Now,
We believe In the birds. We cannot
expect 70 have something for nothing.
