Money in Good Management.

BY having good pasture as many
months in the year as possible, one
will be able to carry his dairy COWS
through the twelvemonth at small
cost, and they will supply fertilizer to
improve the plowed part of the farm.
Surprising that one-half or one-third
of the farm was used for cultivated
crops with such management, 1t
would be possible to make that one
half or one-third yield as much net
profit as all the farm under the sys-
TEN of farming that Is all too common
now, and the direct profit from the
pasture or dairy would remain as so
much extra profit. That good man
agement would materially aid in the
paramount problem of fewer acres
and more bales, bushels OF tons per
acre, with more net profit got more

Farm Tools Lost.

Many farm tools are lost because
the farmer has no definite place to
keep them and could not find them
when wanted. These lost tools often
come to light in course of time unless
spoiled by rust and neglect. Many
an implement has to be replaced in
a year or two which would have
lasted a long time IL given proper
care. Besides the injury to the tools
1t is probable that most farmers
waste more time searching for tools
that are wanted for use than would
amount to the damage done to tools
by neglect. 1t is not difficult to get
into the habit of keeping each tool
and implement in convenient place
and returning it to that place after
use. It is much easier to walk con-
siderable distance toone known place
than II is to go here and there in the
attempt to locate tool that has no
place in particular for storage

ARITHMETIC By Color.

A wonderful calculating girl, Mile.
Diamandi, has Just been presented
to the Society of Anthropology in
Paris.
In the presence of many eminent
mathematician she performed sew
eral remarkable feats. such as work.
ing out almost instantly and by mem
tai process only the square of 25
figures, subtractions of sums of 10
figures, the square root of from 8
to ~ figures. and the cube root of
from 6 to 10 figures.
Another feat Of mental arithmetic
she performed in less than a minute
was to give the number of seconds
within period of Is years.
Mile. Diamandi, who is only 20
years old and Of Greek origin, says
that every figure presents itself to
her minds eye in different color.
Thus. / is always black, yellow,

Pork Raising.

duction they include good quality In
the breeding stock, as the pure-bred
sire is the farmers best friend in all

a common-bred sire will do as we'll.
The pure-bred sire is prepotent and
will have uniform class Of offspring,
possessing quality, while the other
will impress or intensity upon his off,

and the difference in the price of the

Pure Food For Animals.

George B. McCabe, solicitor of the
Department of Agriculture, remarks
that the national pure food law is for
the benefit of beasts as well as hui
man beings. The following example
is cited: Suppose farmer living in
Indiana. near Chicago. should haul
his hay into the Illinois metropolis
for marketing. Suppose, also, that
this farmer claims his hay to be tim
othy. If he sells 1t under this claim
and the purchaser discovers that the
hay contains red top the farmer is liza
BILE to prosecution under the pure
food law. Quite proper. Likewise,
presumably, the faithful horse who
at the dinner hour finds shoe pegs
served. when the menu calls for oats,
will have quite as good a ground of
complaint under the law as the un-
suspecting housewife upon whom the
inscriptions peddler foists nutmegs
made of Eastwood. In this war on
the sale of fraudulent foods let no
guilty man escape.-Rochester Demo-
erat and Chronicle.

find 1t is cheaper in the long run
to keep the farm horses in healthy,
thriving condition. Neglect sooner
or later is apt to bring on heavy cost.
Poorly ventilated and damp stables
are liable to bring on coughs and
colds and other diseases.
Regularity in feeding is more i'm.
portant than used to think it was.
If horses are disappointed by failure
to feed them at the proper time they
become uneasy and do not thrive so
we'll, while irregular feeding with
different kinds of food is more liable
to bring on collie and indigestion.
The food should be regulated ac-
cording to the work done. A great
deal of food is wasted through the
winter by overlooking and careless
feeding. C. c., in the American

BANIsHED
Coffee Finally Had to Go.


The way some persons cling to cof-
fee even after they know it is doing
them harm Is puzzler. But it Is an
easy matter to give IT up for good,
when Postum Food Coffee is proper

A girl writes: Mother had been
suffering with nervous headaches for
seven weary years. but kept drinking
coffee.
''One day asked her why she did
not give up coffee, as a cousin OF
mine had done who had taken to
Postum. But mother was such
slave to coffee she thought 1t would
be terrible to give It up.
FINALLY. one day, she made the
change to Postum, and quickly her
headaches disappeared. One morn
ing while she was drinking Postum
so freely and with such relish asked
for taste.
That started me on Postum, and
now drink II more freely than l did
coffee, which never comes into our

"A girl friend of mine. one day.
saw me drinking Postum and asked
II II was coffee. l told her it was
Postum. and gave her some to take
home. but forgot TO tell her how to
make 1t.
THE next day she said she did not
see how l could drink Postum. !
found she had made it like ordinary
coffee. So | told her how to make 1t
right. and gave her cupful made.

said she never drank any coffee that

A DEMOCRATIC GAEpER.

Minnesota has had the democratic
limelight long enough on account of
its presentation of a trick mule to Mr..
Bryan and will now kindly step aside
while South Carolina introduces a
Hongkong gander and tells its story.
When Farmer Bryan issued the ap-
peal to his fellow tillers of the soil to
chip in and pay his way to the White
House Editor Hemphill of the Charles
ton News and Courier was among the
first to respond. He has had long ex-
perience in running rural newspapers,
so he did not insist upon cash contribu-
in almost any old thing-green corn,
garden truck, cordwood, apples, pota-
toes, old iron or anything that could
be converted into coin.
Editor Hemphill has made his re-
port and. while he regrets to state that
he received practically no cash, he did
gather in one Hongkong gander (ped-
igree certihed) and one Plymouth hen
of uncertain age, but fat. The hen
appears to have been lost in transit,
but the Hongkong gander is a prime
asset and Editor Hemphill has been
making the most of 1t. He put it up
at a rafle and 1t fell to the possession
of the street railway and gas magnate
Of Charleston, Colonel Phil Gadsen,
the proceeds of the rafie amounting to
$25.63.
Colonel Gadsen is a corporation and
Mr.. Bryan has refused to accept any
money from corporations. He did
not, however, declare that he would
refuse to accept Hongkong ganders
from any source, so Colonel Gadsen
proposes to forward the gander to Lin
coin. Pending the receipt of word
from Mr.. Bryan whether the Hongkong
bird would be accepted as an addition
to the Fairview poultry yard, it has
been proposed that the gander be
started on a raHie lou of the south,
each winner agreeing to keep it going
until the bird arrives at Fairview or
the south goes broke.
This proposition raises another
question. Is the Hongkong gander
being made the innocent means of rails
ing tainted money and would Mr..
Bryan accept money raised by a rafie?
That might be evaded, of course, by
just charging an admission fee to see
the gander and then settle It's owner
ship by lot. Mr.. Bryan could have no
objection to that plan and democrats
have often paid admission fees for sim
liar purposes. We trust that any
complications arising from this anair
may be Strengthened out in time to al
low the gander to go on the stump in
the closing days Of the campaign. If
