1t is funny to hear a fellow preach

Maybe the reason that young friend

any town? BY the community feeling
Is meant. Of course. that condition
where neighbors are mutually depend

right Of the other to be considered first
in any deal rather than an outsider.

CIVIC IMPROVEMENT PLAN.
Garden on Vacant Lot Proposed rer
the Good Of Many.


the Good Of Many.
If there is a thickly populated Sec
ton in a town where little of the beau
ties of nature are seen, it would be
well to study the following plan, which
is described in Club Notes by Louise
Klein Miller. curator Of the public
school gardens of Cleveland, O.:
Little Italy is one Of the most dense
" populated foreign districts in Cleve-
land. Men, women and children who
have lived under sunny skies Of their
native land, accustomed to seeing beau
tiful gardens, gay with brilliant flow
ers, are now living under the most con-
gested conditions. The heat OF sum-
mer forces them from their warm
houses into contracted yards or out on
parched pavements.
IAN effort is being made to trans
form a vacant lot lent for the pur-
pose into a beautiful garden where the
people may go and enjoy the green
things growing The plan includes
flower and vegetable gardens. herb
garden and an exchange garden, where
plants will be received and given to
the men, women or children to be used
in their home gardens.
"The dream is pergola. summer
house, wistaria. bay trees and box
hedges. The realization may be a tent
for the pergola and summer house and
morning glories, four o'clocks and cas-
tor oil plants for the wistaria.
'The parish priest. the padrone. the
principal of the public school attended
by the little citizens Of this quarter
and the residents of the social settle
ment In the neighborhood all give their
hearty support and promise OF coop

ems Clubs. The garden will be a
radiating center for civic improve
ment."

THE DAlRYMAN.

A small pasture handy to the dairy
barn in which the cows may be al
lowed to eat at night during mild
weather is a great help. Much of the
! feed consumed at night does more
good than that taken in the daytime.
Neat Butter Prints.
For private dairying there is prob
ably no better package than the pound
print wrapped in parchment paper. 1t
Is well to have a brand engraved in
the print which will leave it's impress
upon every pound Of good butter sold,
but never send any poor butter under
this brand. as it would be liable to
spoil ones reputation. All butter prints
and butter packages should present a
neat, clean appearance and never be
allowed to be smeared with particles
Of butter or stained with imprints Of
dirty fingers.
Seours In Calves.
II the calf begins securing. at once
cut down the feed of milk. The pres
ence Of scours is the best indication Of
Of the calf comes most frequently from
overfeeding.
Keeping 4 Milk Record.
A record of the daily milk yield
should always be kept. not only for
the purpose OF knowing what each
cow produces, but in order to know
her daily condition and how much feed
she ought to have. The milk sheet will
reveal the condition of the COW quick
er than anything else. AS long as she
eats well and the milk yield increases
rapidly the more feed may be given.
The place to stop increasing the feed
will be shown by the slow increase in
milk yield.
Stable Ventilation.
II your stable is ventilated only
from above you are drawing off the
warm air. which means loss to the
cows In comfort and loss of the purest
air. Foul air must be drawn off on q
level with the stable floor. for bad air
Is much heavier than good air. When
the cows lie down and the ventilation
is poor they breathe foul air. 1t has
Its effect on the cows as we'll as on the
product
Some Good Advice.
Here are some good pointers from
a prosperous New York dairyman:
Kindness to the cows pays big divi-
dends at the pail. Absolute regularity
is one of the essentials of success in
dairying A frequent change of diet
is q good thing. but make change slow
ly or you will upset and derange the
milk Tow. Test the cows frequently.
Star boar1ers'' have no place in the
rightly co11ucted dairy. Always wipe
OF udder with cloth before milking.
The first few drops of milk drawn
from udder contain more or less i'm
purities and should be kept out of pail.
A cheap and very useful milking stool
is made Of the spool from which barb
ed wire has been removed. Saw of the
ends 80 it will set level and cut a
board to at on top. Make hs nd hole
through the board. and the Jtool 10
