Their commanding officer and the in

the warriors rose graveiy. shook hands

was already lightning to thickcn with

would gladly have hurried his errand.
But Indian etiquette forbade haste.
He was forced 10 contain himself and
let :he council proceed with customary
ana cTaSPcrating slowness.
The first step was the pipe. \ Young
Sioux applied Il burning splinter to 4

stem to the medicine man. His nos

Cummings, from whom in turn it pass

had smoked the bowl was once more

speech.
But neither the commanding officer
nor his Interpreter made the first adj
dress. Though the braves guessed that
something UNUSUAL had brought about
an assembly at this hour and though
their curiosity on the subject was
chiidiShly live, they surpassed their
captor in patience. Stoiidly they look

lack of exercise that he pressed out
upon it deplorably with a bulging
paunch.
POmpously, but using no gestures or
infections, he began rambling,
lengthy account of his past deeds OF
valor. From these he finally swerved
to the recital of his peoples wrongs.
He climaXed after an interminable
amount of talking with a boast that
awakened the hearty appreciation of
his sloven fellows. I'VE but wait for

He sat down amid a chorus of 'Ho,
hop' The semicircle moved and bent
and nodded. 1t was plain that he had
expressed 4 common belief.
There was one Indian not of the
council to whom his words meant more
than freedom. That Indian was Squaw

TUBERCULOSIS I'M Hogs.

Wishing to test the matter Of hogs be-
coming infected with tuberculosis from
the milk of tubercular cows, the Iowa ex-
pertinent station at Ames fed four lots Of
pigs four and one-half months with milk
that was infected with the germs OF bo-
vine tuberculosis and with pasteurized
milk free from such bacilli. Two lots
were fed in lots with timothy pasture and
the other two in dry lots. One OF each of
the lots was given tubercuiar food from
four to seven times and at the end Of the
period expert hog buyers could see no
signs OF disease and considered the whole
lot worth the top of the market, except
fou head, which were small.
Post norton examinations found that
had had the tubercular baccilli were fit
for consumption, though As per cent. of
the lot were not so badly affected that
they could not be used for ard purposes
with entire safety. OF those fed the pas
tuerized milk o werc affected. 1t there
fore seems plain that in the short space of
four and one-half months healthy pigs
were made unfit for market purposes by
feeding the germs of tuberculous diseases.
Careful inquiry into the ancestry of these
pigs indicated that there was no tubercu-
lar disease connected with any of them,
so that the cause of the disease was en-
tirely In the food. II this result Is at
tanned In this time, what will be- the con-
dition of hogs sold from farms tina al
ready ave the disease or are fed on milk
from tubercular cows for the year or less
of their natural lives before being put on
the market?

SAVE THE COW MANURE.

OF all the elements OF food for grow
ing crops, phosphoric acid is the one
which growers will do well to use judi
ciously. 1t is an element which Is def
cient On most farms. and for this rea-
son the dung OF cows, which contains
nearly all OF the phosphoric acid,
should be carefully saved and applied
to lands. The manure made by cows
supplies nearly all elements Of crop
growth. The urine contains most Of
the nitrogen. the dung the phosphoric
acid, and the coarse stun. such as
straw, most of the ash. There Is less
than half a pound Of phosphoric acid I'm
100 pounds of well rotted manure SO II
Is essential that every bit of the ma
nure be saver. Mich cows, at best, do
not produce a high class manure, be-
cause OF the elements which are sold
off In the milk. Use plenty OF straw
for bedding, and then get the manure
out on the fields where II will count.

PEACOCK SOCKS THE FASHION
From the London Exnreas

Hitherto Il has been supposed that the
low of color in dress appeals to women
only, but the latest fashion I'm socks shows
that man also Ives to deck himself OUT IN
the gay colors of the peacock.
This is the g of the ~variegated sock.
Walk down the Burlington arcade and
you will see the windows OF the select
hosiers flaming with socks OF many col
ors. Purple with yellow spots, green
with red spots, black with pink stripes.
and startling blends of mauve, brown and
magenta brighten the windows.
To wear somber socks nowadays Is to
put yourself at once outside the pale OF

were sock competitions among the GID
ed and fianneled youths.
Prizes were offered for the best effect
In colored socks, and the young man that
won was best out OF twenty. with green
stripes on a white ground.
A Burlington arcade hosier said h q
colored socks are the result OF the en-
tente cordiale. English fashions are be-
being worn to a greater extent I'm order
to show the smartness OF the socks.
This Is the law OF the sock as laid
down by him: N'Stripes should always
be vertical. never round the sock. and
generally a man should see that his ties
n socks are the same color.
Really smart people have the same hue
In ties, socks, braces and hapdkerchlees."
He added that Engllshmen ara now pay

DON'T SELL YOUR GOOD cows.

Whsnever a dairyman begins to sell

Keeping only good COWS and getting rid

stick to the whole bunch, as he their
lives depended upon it. But there are
shreWd buyers In the field all the time
hunting for 3O0-pound cows. and thav
are always ready with a big price for
such a COW. There is only one way I
would sell good cows and that wonId
be, selling the entire herd, and make
the good ones sell the poor ones. The
man who is in the business to stay
should simply shut his eyes to all Of
1ers TOT ms good cows, and keep his
eyes wide open hunting the best in the

BETTER CREAM.

Many wonder sometimes why they
cannon get as good cream during winter
as they do during the warm months.
The trouble all comes from the way the
cream is handled. Many do not realize
mat cream should be cooled In winter
just as promptly as in summer. To
maintain the quality of cream il should
be cooled Immediately after separation
and Kept at a low temperature. An
otner thlng which hurts cream dur
ing cold weather is lack Of cleanliness
In handling the cows and leaving the
mix around the barn for an hour or
TWO. The same thing may be said OF
the milk utensils. Many think that
cold will keep these things sweet and
clean, n utensils are MOI washed
properly. One Of the most prolific
sources OF trouble is the location OF the
cream separation. / recently saw one In
a bed ROOM, and another one was To-
Gated In a small side room where the
men o Off their work clothes and
boots. Better cream means better care
all along the line.

MATCH THE COWS.

h has been more than the usual
number OF cases Of abortion among
dairy cows reported during the PAST
year. The Increase of this affection
cannot be accounted for, unless n
comes from contagion, The dairyman
should be on the lookout now for any
chronic cases. Better remove from the
general herd any COW that has ever
aborted. Much can be done to avert
this trouble by toning UP the cows
system. and keeping her free from ex-
element and in comfortable ouarters
Right now is the time to attend to these
matters. Don't wait until one or more
COWS have prematurely dropped their
calves, and thus lay the whole herd
open to infection. II 1t is not feasible
TO Isolate the cases, better use
more vigorous asu and get ria %
them. No one should risk the useful
ness OF a young herd by having around
any COW that aborts year after year.
