MAX E 1T GRADUAL.
Changing from Whole to skim MILK
in Feeding the Calf.

The change from whole to skim milk
in feeding the calf should be made
by Withholding a small amount of milk
the first day, more the second, and so
on The amount withheld is thus grad.
ually increased from day to day. An
amount of skim milk must be added,
at least equal in quantity of new milk
withheld until the change has been
completed.
Some substance should be added as
soon as the change begins that will
supply an equivalent in the fat con-
tanned in the new milk withheld. No
substance has been found superior for
such use to linseed meal, that is.
ground flaxseed Oil meal will answer
the same purpose, and is far more
frequently fed than ground fax, for
the reason probably that it is relative
ly cheaper. When the latter is used
1T is necessary to feed a larger guam
tity than the former.
In some instances the meal thus
added is stirred in the milk but in
other instances, as when the calves
have learned to take meal before the
change from new to skim milk has
begun, it is simply added to the meal.
Sometimes the flaxseed is made into
a jelly, and this fed along with the
milk.
This practice was common years
ago, but it is not so much practiced
now, since separator milk has come to
be so extensively available. The
Jelly was usually warmed before if
was put into the milk, and this helped
to warm the latter when cold. The
amount to be fed may be regulated for
time, at least, by the influence thar
the meal or the jelly exercise or. the
digestion. If too much is fed the d.
gestion will be unduly lax.-Prof
Thomas Shaw.

American opportunItx.

A bulletin from the bureau OF manu-
features Of the department of com.
merce and labor shows that, while the
United States has made extraordinary
progress In many directions, there
still are fields in which this country
is greatly excelled by others. The
manufacture OF laces. especially OF the
finer varieties. appears not to have
been developed here as abroad. The
statistics are interesting. The people
OF the United States last year pur-
chased laces worth no less than $780,
100000, for American women are
among the most prodigal buyers of
this form OF adornment. OF this total
more than 80 per cent was imported.
This is a fine thing for the European
lacemakers. who find their best mar
kst IN the United States, but economi-
cally speaking the showing is most UNI
satisfactory. Lace-maklng is one of
the arts and crafts that should be
capable Of development in this coun-
try. and thus highly important add
tion could be made TO our industries.
The bulletin in question hints at
something of this sort when pointing
out the fact that the various old.world
countries make very handsome profits
out OF lace, although the cotton and
cotton thread which are the raw ma
terials' are bought abroad and i'm
ported subject to duty. The United
States is the great cotton.growing
country of the world, and with an
abundant supply of such material at
home should be among the foremost
in producing and selling fine cotton
products Such information as that
In the bulletin from the bureau of
manufactures should set Americans
thinking.

Emily said nothing. She was gather.

she knew intuitively was approaching.
Her hands trembled so that she could
scarcely hold her knitting. Presently
Matilda paused and looked reflective

musingly. Il almost forgot we had

Emily watched her disappear in
silence. Then she crawled miserably
onto the bed and pulled the quilt over
her and shivered.
An icy gust of wind rushed in with
Matilda when she returned, but she
herself was warm enough. She almost
suffered in her wrath.

Outdoor Cellar Which Can Be Easily

A simple method of constructing a
cool, outdoor cellar in localities where
the common house cellars are TOO
warm for use during the summertime
is shown in the accompanying sketch.
It is a cellar made under the pump,
so that the water pumped by the

In places where it is difficult to obtain

Firstly, men do not see their duty with
sufficient clearness; secondly, they do not
feel the obligation to do it with sufficient
force. But there are great differences of
opinion among thoughtful persons as to
the relative importance of these different
sources of wrong conduct. The commonest
opinion is disposed to lay stress on the lat

consider the defect of intellectual insight
as having comparatively little practical inn
