property, but a short time before the
old mans death Jacob came to the
home and took upon himself the duties
of caring for Hobart, at a time when
he was sick and easily Influenced;
that he would not allow Gertrude to
wait on the sick man. but took ad-
vantage Of his illness and weakness tc
prejudice his mind against her and in
duce him TO deed all his real estate to
the defendant in this action.
The court Is asked to declare the
deeds null and void. II this is done
then the plaintiff can come in with q
bill for labor and care. Krichbaun
and Piero are attorneys in the case.

The Growing of Onions.

One of the best authorities on onion
culture has this to say regarding thick
necked onions: 1.-The list of standard
market varieties of onions is not very
IL rye, and often we have but little
choice in this respect. On the other
hand, the strains and selections of the
different kind are numerous and
greatly differ in merit. Some strains
are so improved by careful selection
that the sculliOn or thick-necked
onion is a rare occurrence, while other
strains of the same variety give a large
proportion of thick-necked bulbs. Our
first concern. therefore, is not only to
get fresh seed, but also the best strain

of the seed offered under guarantee by
leading seedsmen, will give you the de.

Raising Dairy Cows.

If dairymen would depend upon
raising their dairy animals them
selves, the result would be much more
satisfactory, as a rule, than to buy
from stockmen or spectators in a
haphazard way any "pickups" that are
offered.
In order to begin right, calves
should be selected whose grandmas
on both sides have had a good record
at the pail or churn; then there VIII
be a reasonable hope that the calf
will evolve into a profitable COW.
If we are in the dairy business for
milk, then the attention is drawn
toward the animal which will turn
her food and energies into furnishing
an abundance of milk; but if the aim
be cream or butter We do not care
whether the amount of milk be large
or small, SO it yields a proper amount
of butter fat.
But If the dairyman deems the rear
ing of calves only "side issue,' and
as result gives only Indifferent treat
ment, he might just as well buy his
own cows; for a stunted calf is g
pitiable object, and will never fulfil
it's destiny, no matter what its afte1
treatment may be.
Extravaganza in the feeding of the
calf is -parsimoniousness

be so called by many-means mill

least three weeks after the birth O.

worth what new milk it can consume
during the first few weeks of its life
is not worth the rearing. Let me EN-
phasize that the first weeks of tn,
