Feed Is High. but So Are MIX and
Keep the COW up in flesh, up In spirit,

are milk and butter. Hay is not high
in price now. neither IS the corn slower,
and the silage is In the silo at prime
cost. Good silage, good clover or mix
ed hay. comfortable quarters. clean wa
ter and generous, particular care are
starting factors in the balanced ration.
These are generally capable of being
probably REINFORCED by good CONNER
cial feeds in reasonable quantities, but
the former are the elements that de-
termine profit.
1t is not wise feeding, Of course, to
make cow fat, NOE If she be a good
dairy cow with enough protein in her
feed Is 1t easy to do. 1t is certainly
the greatest unwisdom In feeding to
allow the COW to grow poor, SO that her
vitality is lowered and her production
restricted.
Good condition of flesh, the best In
dication Of ability to do profitable
work, can usually, with proper atten-
ton being given 1t, be secured by the
intelligent feeding of the rough prod
ncts of the farm. These should of
course be carefully harvested and hous-
ed and fed in the most appetizing con-
dition. How much vitality one COW

CAR PAUL'S WIG.

An Omcer Twenked 1t and Won q Bet
and Promotion.
Paul, the eccentric car of Russia
assassinated In 1901, was very particu-
lar as to his dress and considered tri-
fling matters as of supreme impor-
lance. This popularity was once taken
advantage of by an officer of the
guards, Major Vaksel, to win a bet.
The major. the widest joker In the ar
my, wagered several hundred rubles
that he would tweak the tail of the en-
peror's wig on parade.
The very next day the emperor hap
pened to be present at an early parade
and, as destiny ruled it, took a posi-
ton for moment Immediately in front
of the daring major. Breathless with
excitement and terror, Vaksel's COM
panions beheld that rash officers right
hand steal slowly from his side, rise
to the level of the cars neck and
give the wigs hanging tail most de-
cided tweak.
In an instant the emperor's face,
pale with fury. was turned upon YAK

only reflected an expression of child
like innocence, mingled with the most
deferential establishment
"Who dared to do that?" asked the
enraged czar, his eyes giving flashing
evidence that his most dangerous mood
was upon him.
II did, your majesty" said Vaksel,
who, however his heart may have fut-
tered. managed to preserve outwardly
an unrufiled calm. together with an ex-
preston of innocent surprise. 1T was
crooked, your majesty" he added In
confidential undertone. 81 straighten-
ed 1t for fear the younger officers
should see."
Pauls countenance cleared at once.
He stared fixedly, however, at YAK
sells innocent looking face for some
seconds. Vaksel admitted afterward
that this was the trying moment, and
he had said to himself, 'Tf 1 waver
I'm lostw Then the car spoke, and
spoke so that all might hear.
Il thank you, colonel" he said.
II ever step in rank was gained by
the purest effrontery it was so acquir-
ed on this occasion, and Vaksel left
the field, not only promoted to covet-
ed position in the guards, but richer by
many hundred rubles as the result Of
his wager.

pact body and carrying everything be-
fore them. II flock of sheep be In
the line of march as it sometimes
happens-it Is surrounded, enveloped
and becomes. willingly or unwillingly,
part of the army. An African hunter
tells the strange story of seeing lion
in the midst of the antelopes, forced to
join the march. It Ii supposed that the
lion had sprung too far for his prey,
that those upon whom he allghted re-
coiled sufficiently to allow him to reach
the ground, and then the pressure
from both TANKS and the rear prevent
ed him from escaping from his strange
captivity. If the springbok travels in
such armies, how can those in the mid
die and rear find food? In this wise:
Those in the front ranks, after they
have eaten greedily of the pasture,
gradually fail out of the ranks to rest,
while the hungry ones In the rear come
up, and SO the columns are all the
while changing.

GARDEN TALK

There is many q farmer who plants
his scores or hundreds of acres to
wheat, corn and cotton who actually
begrudges the use of a half acre for
a kitchen garden, yet that half acre,
or even quarter acre, gives better re-
turns than any equal area on the farm.
Too often the garden is the most
neglected spot on the place. Good re-
suits cannot be expected from meager
feeding and slovenly cultivation.
With much garden work 1t is now
or never" The gardener who enters
the tag end of the procession is likely
to remain there.
The kitchen garden will take all that
we have to give. 1t has a place for
all the ashes. the yard sweepings,
leaves, wood pile trash, solid and liquid
refreshments and commercial fertili-
zers. Its nav Is truly Unsuitable.
Hire a little extra labor Qf you can
find IT. and get ahead Of the game for
once, at least
Those who snake garden generally
grow only the commoner and most
easily raised vegetables because of the
popular notion that choice kinds can
only be raised by market gardeners
with hotbeds and greenhouses. This
is not always a right conclusion. Try
a few Of the finer things.

THE LUNGS ARE LIFE.


An Odd Little Essay ON the Subject
of Breathing.
Everything on, in and under the earth
breathes- minerals, vegeta-
bles, etc. The tides are caused by the
breathing of the earth itself. This old
globe must take two long breaths a
day, each inspiration requiring six
hours and each expiration the same
period of time. II Mother Earth did
not breathe she would In all probabili-
ty bust" and blow up. When she
breathes too hard, as IL In a panic, or
because of some geological excitement,
she cracks the ground and we have the
earthquake. Her ordinary respiratory
movement merely expands and con-
tracts the water volume.
Singularly enough, air is the most i'm
portant element provided by nature.
A man can live forty FIVE days without
food, several days without water and
about three or four minutes without
air. Take away his lungs, as by pneu-
monia, and death Is as certain as sin.
Does the heart beat make the circula-
ton OF the blood or does the circula-
ton make the heart beatf What
causes breathing? Does breathing
make the heart beat? Does breathing
make the circulation? Important, VI
tally important, are these questions.
You may remove a mans liver. kid
neys, stomach, intestines; you may sew
er arteries and veins; you may even
stab him through the heart or with
draw his brains. and he will still live,
but take away his lungs and he Is
dead. The lungs are the lifeENew

A source Of ContaEion.

1t has been proved by abundant in
vestigation that one prolific source Of
epidemic diseases is found in the liza
bility of the germs Of such diseases to
lodge in the mouth around the teeth
and gums A physician examined the
teeth of the children of certain
school. He found disease germs pres
ent in almost every case. By careful
watching he discovered that those chill
dren whose teeth were kept cleanest
suffered less from epidemic diseases
The neglected condition Of the teeth Is,
therefore, common cause of Illness.
Indeed, if one takes the trouble to OBJ
serve with what rapidity the tartar
and cheesy matter accumulate around
the teeth of people who are out Of
health they will not be long in making
up their minds that thorough and ju-
dicious use of the toothbrush Is not
very far from a means Of grace.

WHITE PINE.
Natural Replacement on Old Fields
In New England.
Rv N SPRING

Natural Replacement on Old Fields
In New England.
BY S. N SPRING.
The increasing use and value of Sec
ond growth white pine have caused
considerable interest TO be taken In its
rate of growth and reproduction.
Many persons In New England who
are familiar with past conditions can
recall the time when land which today
has valuable pine upon 1t was under
cultivation or in use as pasture. When
such lots are cut, however, trees Of
little value frequently replace the pine
growth, so that white pine In New
England is threatened with extermina-
ton. To insure its perpetuation prac-
teal methods for Its renewal must be
employed at once.
Pine Extending Itself.
Many fields and pastures covered at
present by Seeding and sapling stands
give evidence that the white pine 10
still extending itself. This extension
depends principally upon the presence
Of seed trees. The merchantable stands
are being rapidly removed on account
Of the large consumption OF pine by
certain industries. The common meth
cd of numbering these pine lots leaves
no seed trees to provide for future
stands.
The replacement Of white pine can
be assured by leaving seed trees ON
each lot when it is cut. II the prac-
tice becomes general, the number Of
stands Of merchantabls pine In New
England will be greater fifty years
hence than 1t is today, and the quality
Of their timber will be better.
