the future, and whether it grows up
healthy and strong, or puny and weak,
depends upon the intelligence of its
parents, for most children are born
into the world healthy, but thousands
become future weaklings between
birth and the age of ten, when the
parents are still in greatest control.
The prime cause OF trouble Is in the
stomach A baby that is digesting its
food seldom cries and always looks cheer
full; the little child whose stomach Is good
romps and plays and never WINES: me
eager for fun II its head Is clear ana It's
stomach light. and that means II 1t has
no constipation.
The best and safest way to cure any
In children Is by the use OF DR.. CaldweiPs
Syrup Pepsin. This Is liquid laxatiyS
wonderful in its effect as Mrs. John w.
Durham, Apple Creek, O., Mrs. II. l..
Cullam, Plainville, Ind, and numerous
others can testify who give 1t to their
children with extraordinary results.
A bottle only costs so cents or III ac-
cording to the size you want, and even
one 50-cent bottle will do wonderful
amount of good in family. It can be
constipation, sour stomach indigestion.
TORPID liver dyspepsia, heartburn. sick
headache and similar digestive troubles.
II never gripes or strangles like pills,
tablets, salts and powders, which should
not be given to children, women or old
folks.
N YOU have a child or other member of
the family who needs, but has never used
this grand laxative tonic, send your name
and address TO the doctor and free trial
bottle will be sent to your home. In this
way you can find out what II Will do
without personal expense.

TEST OF MILKING MACHINE
Opinion Of Experlmenters at Tennes.
see Experiment Station Il is Su-
perior to Hand Method.

The latest test of the milking ma
chine is reported by the Tennessee ex-
pertinent station. 1t Is the opinion of
the experimenters that under the con-
ditions existing at the station the
milking machine vas equal II not
slightly superior to hand milking.
With proper care the COWS we're
MIXED as clean with the machine as
they were by hand. and an expert
operator could milk the cows cleaner
with the machine than they could be
MIXED by hand. There was nc injury
whatever to the cows IL the teat cups
and mouth pieces were properly ad-
tusted, and the cows submitted to be-
ing MIXED by the machines as quietly
as II they we're being MIXED by hand.
The machines are not difficult to
keep clean. and when properly at.
tended to they will produce a high
grade Of milk, but If allowed to be.
come dirty they are a very serious
source of contamination One man
running two machines will milk
about as many COWS as two men
milking by hand. After all the sta
ton concludes that successful opera
ton depends upon the proper fitting
of operator should be above the aver
e farm hand in intelligence and

RECORD FOR THE SHORTH0RN
Cow Owned by Missouri Agricultural
College Places New High Mark
for Her Breed.

On the 18th of April the registered
shorthorn COW. Lula, owned by the
Missouri Agricultural college, COM
pleted a years record which places
her far in the lead al the best dairy
COW of this breed, writes Prof. c. n.
Eckles in Hoard's Dairyman.
The total amount of milk produced
turing the year was 1884 pounds with
an average test Of At, which equals
514.S pounds butterfat. This is equal to
s05.6 pounds of commercial butter. This
record as compared with other official
Or authenticated records Of shorthorn
COW places the COW Lula almost in a
class by herself.
One of the marked characteristics OF
this cow shown during the year while
this record was being made was the
economy of production. For some rea-
son, hard to understand, she does not

10 we'll on a ration of mixed grains,
md after some experimenting she was
placed on q grain ration consisting OF
pure corn chop. The average amount
Of this fed was nine pounds per day.
She was on a blue grass pasture In the
summer and had in addition green al
falfa, and later In the a greeh
corn. In the winter season her ration
consisted of corn chop, about ~
pounds corn silage a day, and all the
choice alfalfa she would consume. She
was MIXED three times a day while
producing the largest amount OF milk.
The average price received for but
ter by the dairy department during the
year covered by this record was 81
cents. The value of the product OF
this COW at this rate vas $192.l2 for
butter produced. In addition, there
was approximately 5000 pounds skim
milk, which was sold at the rate Of &c
cents per 100 pounds for hog feeding,
making a total income of $210 for the
year.
This remarkable record does not IL
the least indicate hat the shorthorns
should be classed as a dairy breed, but
It does show that when bred and de.
veloped for dairy purposes they are
capable of making a good showing In
this line.

SO the cream will beat against the ends
in the process Of butter-making. The
accompanying sketch shows clearly
how one boy rugged up a device hav
ing a driving wheel which is turned
with a crank, and a driven wheel at
tached to an axle having a crank on
the inner end. This crank is connected
to a swinging cradle with a wire pit
man of such size as to slightly bend or
spring at each end of the stroke. The
cradle is made with a cleat fastened
to each end, between which is placed
the fruit jar, partially filled with
cream. The jar is wedged in between
the cleats and the churning effected
by turning the crank.

PAINT DURABILITY.

The first thought in painting should.
of course, be durability-and dura-
bility means simply pure paint prop
erly applied. Pure paint is pure
white lead and linseed oil with or
without tinting materially.
Some years ago the paint-buyer was
likely to get %adulterated or counter.
felt white lead if he was not familiar
with brands. To-day he may buy
with perfect safety if he only makes
sure that the Dutch Boy Painter
trademark is on the packages OF
white lead that he buys. This trade
mark was adopted by National Lead
Company to distinguish the pure
white lead made by them from the
worthless adulterated and fake goods.
It is a guarantee as valuable to the
HORSEPOWER as the education OF q
paint expert could be.

and the butter can be taken out with
ease without spelling the form or
print. The mold consists OF a base
portion with handle attached and
raised portion to form the bottom of
the mold box. The sides are made in
two parts, arranged to interlock, and
held in position when they are inter
locked by a clamping member that
swings over and holds them firmly to-
gether. In the old style butter mold
1t was necessary to push the print out,
the sides being solid. In this form all
that is required Is to open the clamp
ing device, take the sides of and the
butter appears in perfect condition.

All in Fight Against tuberculosis.
Prevention of tuberculosis versus
dividends is the proposition which
some of our largest insurance com
panies are now trying to establish
The Metropolitan Life recently ap'
piled for permission to erect a sana-
forum for its policy holders and en-
ployes afflicted with tuberculosis, but
the application was refused on grounds
of illegality by New York State Super
intendent of Insurance Hotchkiss. The
company is, however, conducting an
active educational campaign by dis
tributing $4,000 0 pamphlets among
it's policy holders. The Providen1
Savings Life Assurance society has
also established a health bureau
where it's policy holders may receive
free medical advice. Several fraterna
orders, notably the Modern Woodmen
Knights of Pythias, Royal League
Royal Arcanum and Workmen's Cir
Gle, have already established or are
contemplating the erection of sana
toria for their tuberculous members.
