EASY TO PICK OUT UMBRELLA.
EngIIshman's Was One That No Amer
lean Would Garry.

An Englishman who had left New
York hotel for western trip wrote
back asking the manager. to look up
an umbrella he had forgotten and to
keep 1t for him. The letter contained
no description of the umbrella, which
was one of several dozen that had
been left by departing guests. How.
ever, out OF the miscellaneous collec'
ton on hand the manager picked out
one umbrella, tagged 1t with the Eng
lishman's name, and laid it away for
safe keeping. Upon the return of the
traveller that umbrella was given him
1t proved to be the right one.
How on earth could you tell 1t was
his?" asked DR.. Watsonish-kind oil
clerk with as much awe as II he were
addressing Sherlock Holmes himself
There was no possible way of identi
flying It,"
Eyes, there was" said the manager
1T was the heaviest. clumsiest. ugli

lishman always carries that kind. Al

Mioht Have Been More.

Rev. W. l.. Notestein, professor In
the Presbyterian Synodical college at
Huron, s. d.. said that he taught Greek
and apologetics.
"And what are apologetics?" lay.
man asked.
They are such things as. say. the
evidence of Christianity"
The layman was silent for a mo-
ment.
where are you staying?' he asked
"A hotel or boarding house?"
"A boarding house?"
"Er-find any evidences of Chris
tianity there?"
The professors laugh could have
been heard half way down the arcade
"None too many" he answered.

Proper Feeding

II We wish to see the influence that
man has had on the Improvement OF
cattle we have only to look at the diff.
ferent breeds that have been develop.
ed from one common ancestry
through his efforts. The skilful
dairyman who breeds intelligently
and gives the proper care and fees to
his calves is the one who will constant.
ly improve his herd, says Mississip.
pt bulletin The calf should be taken
from its dam when from one to two
days old. For the first two weeks II
should be fed only on its mothers
milk. Feed about eight to ten pounds
day When the centrifugal sep.
arator Is used and sweet skim milk Is
available, the latter may be substi.
tuted for part OF the whole milk
when the calf Is two weeks old. BY
making the change gradually, skim
milk may be substituted for all OF the
whole milk by the time the calf Il
from three to four weeks old. AS the
| fat OF cream has been removed from
the skim milk, 1t 1t necessary to re
place this with some food. For thi.
we have found a mixture Of equa
parts by weight Of corn meal, wheat
bran, and oat meal very satisfactory
About two tablespoonfuls should be
mixed with the skim milk Just before
it Is fed. This can be gradually IL
creased as the calf grows Older
Regularity is the necessary condition
to success In calf raising. The calves
should be fed at the same time eaci
day. Very little more skim mill
should be fed than whole milk whel
the change Is made and 1t Away
should be fed warm. 1t should b.
about the same temperature as mill
when first drawn from the COW, ant
should be perfectly sweet. The feed
ing pail should lbe kept scrupuIousI!
clean by scaldIng once a day: The
calf should be taught to eat as soon
possible, which may be done by put
ting little meal In its mouth jus
after feeding the skim milk. A mix
ture OF bran, oats and cornmeal make
a desirable feed for the calf. l
should be allowed to eat all the hay
will. The calf should be kept In
comfortable barn during cold an
rainy weather. While it should nc
be tat, 1t should be kept in a thrift
condition.

New Food In India.

new food product has been discov.
cred on the west side Of India. which
has already been approved by the gov.
eminent authorities, and 1t is now pro.
posed to gather the seed In large guam
titles and hold 1t for use whenever
famine conditions are fully developed.
1t is in the form Of seed which
has been named "befri" and is claimed
by the chief medical officer Of Baroda
state to contain 21.13 per cent. OF al
buminoids, whereas the proportion in
indian wheat Is but 1876 per cent and
In oatmeal only IS.
In other words "befri" Is 63 pei
cent. more nutritious than wheat and
% more so than oatmeal.
