Thunder and Milk,

To many persons the curdling of milk
in q thunderstorm is a mysterious and
unintelligible phenomenon. Yet, ac-
cording to scientists, the whole process
is simple and natural. Their claim is
that milk, like most other substances,
contains millions of bacteria. The
milk bacteria that in a day or two,
under natural conditions, would cause
the fluid TO Soul are peculiarly sus-
ceptible to electricity. Electricity in
spires and ~inTisorates them, Us alec

Under the currents influence they fall
to work with amazing energy, and In
stead Of taking q couple of days to
sour the milk they accomplish the task
completely in a half hour. With an
electric battery 1t is easy on the same
principle to soul the freshest milk.

a syvfndIe on Farmers.

An entirely e but highly successful
scheme to separate farmers from their
money has been worked in South Da-
kota during the past few months.
An oily CRATER calls on q farmer and
makes q bid for his land. The figures
are absurdly low at first, but by de
grees are raised as high as $50 an acre,
and the farmer consents.
Then the visitor explains that he Is
only an agent, but that he can sell the
land at the price named If the owner
will agree to pay for advertising at the
rate Of so cents an acre.
The agent promises orally that the
advertising money Will not be payable
until the land is sold, but this stipula-
ton is not contained in the contract
that the farmer signs.
In a few days he receives a copy Of
an ad and not overcourteous demand
for money. g

of the Illinois senator, his first being
her eldest sister. She became a fond
mother to the orphaned nieces and 1t

Farm Help Less Expensive.

Farm labor is cheaper than IL was al
this time last year and is pretty sure
to continue SO for the season There
has been some curtailment in manufac-
turing throughout the country, the re-
suit being that a great many men are
out Of work. With this condition farm
ers find that they can get help more
readily now than they have been able
to for several years.
1t Is aScertained that where contracts
have been made in the Middle West and
Southwest for farm hands the rate of
wages averages about IS per month low
err than that prevailing a year ago.
A common rate of pay for farm hands
at this time Is $2o per month, as against
$50 last season. Competent men with
experience in special departments OF
farming will command more, but not lie
much as in 1906 and 1907. Good live
stock hands receive $35 to $40, but
above this there are few men hired even
for fancy farming or the specialties who
are receiving more.
Youths and inexperienced immigrants
are Offering their services for from S1j
to $50 per month.
