AN ARMY NURSE.
Some "reminiscences Of "Mother''
eickerdyke of War Fame.

Among the hundreds who devoted
themselves to the care of the sick
soldiers during the civil war, the name
OF Mother" Bickerdyke stands pre-
eminent. Galesburg, ILL.,, has Just
honored her memory by a monument.
Many stories, in which the humorous
and the heroic are delightfully."- min
gled, are told of this faithful woman,
to whom no service for the boys
was too hard. Some of these anec.
dotes are given by Mrs. Livermore in
her STORY Of the War;"
Mother Bickerdyke, more than any
other person, assisted in reforming
the badly managed hospitals of Ger.
tain localities. There was nothing she
would not do for her sick, and the
soldiers reciprocated her affection
heartily. 1--WE shall all die now" they
said, dolefully, on one occasion, when
she left her post for another place.
Every man saluted the homely figure.
clad in calico and wearing a Shaker
bonnet.
Mother" however, was no mild
hammered saint. She dearly loved her
own way, and she usually got it. She
had a sublime disregard for red tape
which sometimes carried her into trou-
ble.,
At one time she was in charge Of q
field hospital which was horribly cold.
1t was night, and wounded, half:frozen
men were being brought in. Mother
Bickerdyke, without consulting any
one, tore down the breastworks Of
the post and built huge fires. This
unauthorized proceeding was reported
to the commander of the post. He
saw its wisdom, but discipline had to
be maintained, and in the morning he
sought out the nurse.
Mother" he said, "you must con.
slider yourself under arrest"
"All right, major" she replied, as
she few past him with a big bowl Of
hot drink. "All right. I'm arrested,
but don't NEEDLE with me until the
weather moderates, for my men will
freeze IL you do" 3,
Mother" was famous for her care

she "doctored" lot of stewed peaches
with tartar emetic and left them on
the kitchen table. In the night there
were sounds Of severe suffering.

Care Of the Dairy Calf

The young calf should be taken away
from the mother after it is three or
four days old. 1t should be fed pure
milk for a time, the temperature being
about 90 degrees f. Care should be
taken not to feed the calf too heavily,
or it may get the scours. The calf
should be taught to drink from a pail
at the outset. This can be done by
putting the finger in its mouth and
gradually lowering the hand until it is
beneath the warm milk in the pail. In
a short time it will drink by itself.
After being fed on the pure milk for a
week or so the calf may be fed on skim
med milk If the calf does not run on
pasture, it will be profitable to put lit
tie meal or shipstuff in the skinned
milk After a month or two it should
be fed some good timothy or clover
hay.

may be withdrawn whenever desired
Bearing against the opposite side of the
shank is a cam c., which is journaled
in the body portion of the jaw (A.
In use the work to be clamped is
placed against the fixed jaw, and then
with cam turned upward, as shown
in Fig. /, the movable jaw may be

it is locked by moving down the cam

1t will be noticed that the cam draws
the jaw ca bodily toward the shank,
but that it moves on the toothed pawl

than the point where the cam engages

and into closer engagement with the

Alcohol Safer Than Gasoline.

The use of denatured alcohol as Il
fuel has yet to be fully developed. AL
though alcohol has only about half the
heating power of kerosene or gasoline
gallon for gallon, yet it has many val
liable properties which may enable it
to compete successfully in spite of it's
lower fuel value. In the first place, it
is very much safer Alcohol has a
tendency to simply heat the surround
ing vapors and produce currents of
hot gases which are not usually
brought to high enough temperature to
infame articles at distance. 1t can
be easily diluted with water, and
when it is diluted to more than one
half it ceases to be iniammable; hence
1t may be readily extinguished, while
burning gasoline, by floating on the
water, simply spreads it's flame when
water is applied to it,

HOLDING POWER OF SPIKES
Different Forms Tested In Various

Different Forms Tested In Various
Kinds of Wood.
The forest service Of the United
completed series of tests to deter
mine the holding power of different
forms of railroad spikes. The tests
were made on ordinary commercial ties
ofloblolly pine, oak. chestnut and 9th
er woods.
The spikes were of four kinds-com-
mon driven spikes. a driven spike
which is about the same form as a
common spike with a lengthwise chan
mel on the side away from the rail,
screw spikes of the American type and
screw spikes similar to those in use on
the European railways. The common
spikes were driven to depth of five
inches, and the screw spikes Wee in
serted after hole Of the same diam
eter as the spike at the base of the
thread had been bored. The average
force required to pull the common
spikes varied from 1000 pounds in
white oak to $500 pounds in loblolly
pine and 5000 pounds in chestnut
The channel spike showed a slightly
larger holding power The two forms
of screw spikes were about equal in
their holding power. which ranged from
1900 pounds in white oak to 9,400
pounds in chestnut and 100 pounds in
loblolly pine The decrease in holding
power of common spikes in loblolly
pine in knots is as great as % per

Percentage Valuable.
Cows, like men, are good or bad
ofttimes because of their environment.
bringing up and education. We look
for and expect men to be good if
brought up in good, religious families
and communities. l have often heard
it said, "Give me the first six years
of q child's life, and | will tell you
with a great deal of certainty what
the future of that child's life will be-"
So | believe that the conditions under
which an animal is reared determine in
a large Seasure her future usefulness
or uselessness, says a writer in Kim
balls Dairy Farmer. AS with men,
the parentage is of great value, and
we look for and have good reason to
expect cows to be better cows from a
long line of productive ancestry. This,
then, is the stepping stone in the de-
veloping of a dairy COW.
The Good Bull.
Authorities say that daughters take
after their fathers and SONS after their
mothers" in predominant character
istics. This is true Of all animal life.
If a bulls lineage can be traced
through a line of remarkable mixers
his value will be enhanced. He will
transmit the qualities of his dam to his
offspring. 1t often happens that the
farmer who buys cows with the idea
of raising heifers is disappointed. He
is impatient He cannot wait for the
second generation. He thinks his cows
are unp1Sftable because their heifers
are not as good as he had hoped they
would be- 1t usually takes at least
two generations to get herd into good
working condition. You can't do it in
a minute Don't get hasty, but keep
the facts in mind and work toward a
definite purpose. Above all, use good
sire. You need good cows. That is
plain. And you need good sire to get
good cows. That isn't as plain as it
ought to be. BY good bull we mean
one whose maternal blood stands for
milking qualities and performance.

Bargains.

We direct the attention of our
readers to the ad of Cook, Tatum
& Crouch, real estate brokers, which

This is Dne Of the most wide awake
real estate agencies in the South.
They a wide field. They have
corresponding agents in all the largest
cities of the country and are there

bargains going. Now is the time to
buy real estate both in the city and in
the country. No real estate has been
sold for several years at a loss but Oh
the contrary a great deal has been
bought and reSold at a large profit.
Those who have some spare money
and are locking for investments would
do well to consult some member OF
the above firm. Mr.. A. b. Crouch
makes his headquarters at the Grena-
da Hotel in this city and can claim
the confidence of the business public
and everybody i'm Grenada as his
friends. Besides, for a number of
years he was a travelling salesman for
a st. Louis house and hence has an
extensive acquaintance that puts him
in an enviable position to know OF
the best things going. The firm has
