A great many patent milk pals are
on the market, says Denver Field and
Farm, designed to assist dairymen in
preventing filth from gaining an en-
trance to the milk. A good milk pail
should he free from open joints and
have as small an opening in the top
as Is consistent with easy milking. 1t
should be SO constructed that 1t can be
easily cleaned. Strainer-top pals are
quite extensively used and when prop
erly cared for are effective In reducing
bacteria. Milk should be strained at
once through four thicknesses Of gauze
or its equivalent. Funnelrhaped
strainers that permit the milk to flow
through a small opening In the bottom
are Objectionable because as each new
lot OF warm milk Is poured Into the
straincr more and more of the filth is
washed through into the milk. 1t Is
well TO have stralner 40 constructed
that the strainer-opening Is raised
above the bottom SO that the force Of
the milk as it is poured in will strike
the solid bottom and not force the
sediment through the strainer.

We are quick to criticise, and criti-
clsm has It's own place In life; we are
slow to cheer, and therein we waste
one Of the resources Of power given to
us by God, and we lower the tenpera-
ture Of life. Believe me, men and
women round us are hungering and
thipting for a friendly word and a
kindly greeting, and care not
whether they be high or low, they
would count It d benediction. n.-John

The venerable Horace Greeley once
said: 1.-THE lest Investment farmer
can make for his family Is that which
surrounds their youth with the rational
delights Of = bounteous aud attractive
home. No money spent upon the farm
IL 90 profitable as that which makes
the wife and children found and proud
Of their home" How true these words
are. They are as true today as when
spoken by the famous author. More
farmers should realize to a greater ex-
tent their full and important meaning.

Seed Centuries Old.

Through the experiments made by
Louis Smith, of Durango, Colorado,
corn buried for centuries IN, the Aztec
ruins Of that state, has been made to
produce remarkable new varieties. Mr..
Smith has gathered quite a crop from
the seed found. TIE ears are unusually
large and fine. The kernels are coal
black, and much bigger than the ordi-
nary corn. - -,
Last fall, while digging in one Of the
Aztec mines, Mr.. Smith came upon .
large .earthen receptacle tightly sealed,
which. on being opened, was found t.
contained shellsd cor9s suficent in
Quantity to plant an acre Of ground.

THR "Money Power has taken

THE money Power" has taken
time by the forelock, so to speak,
and the barrel" is already open as
can be detected by careful perusal
of some Of the staunch q Demo-
cratic papers. The plan this year
is somewhat different from the
ordinary, for Instead Of waiting
until after the convention and then
striving to defeat the candidate
nominated by the Democrats the
Money Power" is already spend
ing money to defeat the nomina-
ton of William Jennings Bryan for
president on the Democratic ticket.
This is wise move, for a thousand
dollars used judicially now will ac-
tomplish more than a million can
after the nomination if Mr.. Bryan
is nominated. There is not a
Democratic paper in the United
States, that has an iota Of self
respect, that would dare refuse to
support Bryan If he is nominated
no difference how much money
they should be offered for so doing.
But it does not take very much
money to get some Democratic
papers to advocate turning Bryan
down and nominating some one
else. The large corporations do
not care who is nominated, just SO
1t isn't Bryan. The nomination Of
any other man by the Democrats
assures the election Of the Republi-
tan candidate and it matters little
who he is.

Making the Best Of one Another.

We may; If we choose, make the
worst of one another. Everyone has
his weak points; everyone has his
faults; we may make the worst Of
these; we may fix our attention con-
stantly upon these, but we may also
make the best of one another. We
may forgive even as we hope to be
forgiven. We may put ourselves in the
place of others and ask what we should
wish to be done to. us and thought OF
us were we in their place. BY loving
whatever is lovable in those around us,
love will flow back from them to US,
and life VIII become q pleasure instead
of pain, and each will become like
heaven, and we shall become met un-
worthy followers of Him whose name
Ills Love.

The little cares that fretted me,

Among the fields dbove the sea,
Among the winds at play;

Among the singing Of the birds,
The humming Of the bees.

His A nusi Readinu.

Last Thursday a gentleman passing
the residence of H. c. Klinefelter,
at Madison, lound him greatly
interested in something he was
reading Upon inquiry. Henry
said he was doing the thing he did
every I'd of July,-reading over the
story of the battle OF Gettysburg.
Comrade KlinefeIter had lively
part in that great battle, and it is no
wonder he celebrates every annivers-
AIRY of the event by reading over again
the story of it. He must by this time
know it pretty well by heart.
Comrade Klinefelter had long s-i
most honorable service. He enlisted
September II, 1861, from the town
of Cottage Grove, in Company D of
the 18th Wisconsin infantry, one of
the regiments of the famous Iron
Brigade. He re-eniisted as a veteran,
and was corporal and sergeant in
his company. From March /, 1862,
till January, 1864, he was on detached
service as a member of Battery B of
the 4th United States artillery. He
was wounded in the wilderness: was
mustered out March 6, 1865. Those
who knew Henry in the service say
he was a fighter, and was ready for
any duty every day He was taken
prisoner at one time and had been
disarmed About a minute later his
captors had their attention drawn to
something else, when Henry took
counsel of his heels and, escaping
every one OF the many balls sent af-
ter him, run after such manner as to
regain his freedom. He was wounded
in the battle of the Wilderness.
After Comrade Klinefelter had been
mustered out Of the 7th regiment, he
was commissioned second lieutenant
of Company F of the 51st, his com
mission dating from February % On
the 18th of the following August he
was commissioned first lieutenant and
quartermaster of his regiment, but
he was not mustered as such He
served altogether a little more than
than three years and eleven months.
Very few soldiers of the civil war
have better record than Henry G.
Klinefelter.
