The women fioundered toward the

Her Answer.

An Atchison girl had proposal Of
marriage Sunday night and asked a
week to think 1t over. She went to all
of her married sisters. One. who used
to be belle, had three children, did all
her own work and hadn't been to the
theater or out riding since she was
married. Another. whose husband was
a promising young man at the time
she was married, was supporting
him. A third didn't dare say
her life was her own when her hus-
band was around. and fourth was di.
vorced. After visiting them and hear
ing their woes, the heroine of this lit
tie tale went home, got pen, ink and
paper and wrote an answer to the
young man. You may think 1t was re-
fusing him, but It wasn't. She said
she could be ready in a month.-Atch-

Trapper's Trained Animals Attack
Girl and Are Immediately Slain
by Her Father.

Saskatoon. Sask.-A weird tale of
the north has been brought to Saska-
toon by Fred Allingham and James
and Mack ]. Curtin, who have been
spending the winter around Moose
Lake. A trapper had secured several
young timber wolves which he trained
for driving. On one occasion he had
been away on long journey and was
finishing a hard day in which the ami
mails had not received any fosd. as it
is not customary to feed dog teams
during the day while travelling.
AS the driver of the team ap-
preached the shanty that was his
home, his three-year-old daughter ran
out to meet him and the famished an
imals jumped upon her and in flash
she was dead before the father could
lift hand. Selling a sharp AK the
trapper went at the wild creatures and
never stopped until he had killed all
of them.

my only food; 1t tasted SO delicious
that l enjoyed 1t immensely and my
stomach handled 1t perfectly from the
first mouthful. 1t was SO nourishing l
was quickly built back to normal

"Grape-Nuts is of great value as
food to sustain life during serious at
tacks in which the stomach is so de-

FEEDING THE CALVES
SKIM MILK
BY Prof. A. L. Hacker, Nebra ska
Agricultural College.

The use of the hand separator has
brought about the rearing of many
calves on hand separator skim milk
The calf stanchion is the best equip
ment for calf feeding This stanchion
should be supplied with a little box
or manger, and the stanchion should
be used both in the calf pen and in
the calf pasture. Care should be used
to feed the skim milk fresh and warm
from the separator, giving small ra-
tions in preference to large ones.
With the present prices paid for
butter fat 1t requires rich man to
afford his calves the luxury of nurs-
ing their dams. and the one who says
he cannot afford the time to milk and
feed calves is either getting very
large salary or is well enough off SO
that he need not economize in this
way. This does not, of course, refer to
the man raising pure-bred beef cattle
or the range conditions. There is
quite diversity of opinion in the
method of rearing q calf on skim milk
and / do not assume that mine is the
only one or that it is particularly bet.
ter than others. But have been very
successful in raising calves for the past
20 years and attribute this success
largely to the method employed.
After the calf is removed from the
cow it should be given it's mothers
milk for few days, and then any
whole milk will answer, but it is bet
ter to give milk that is low in per
cent. of butter fat than that which is
high. Feed small rations in clean pals
When the calf is from ten days to two
weeks old it may be changed from
whole milk to skim milk by adding a
small amount of skim milk, say one
fourth, and increasing this per cent

made, and the calf is on a skim milk
ration. The skim milk to be the best
for calves should be fresh and warm
from the separator.
Now is the time TO start feeding
butter fat substitute and this may be
given in the milk until the calf Is
able to eat ground feed. Oil meal
makes good calf feed and a little
added to the skim milk will answer
the purpose. Here is when the calf
stanchion will come in handy, for
with such an equipment the calf can
be taught to eat grain much earlier, on
account of its being held in front of the
grain and its being free from the an
noyance of the other calves.
mixing the following food stuffs: Blood
meal ten pounds, bone meal five
pounds. oil meal 20 pounds, oat meal
20 pounds, corn meal 20 pounds. This
mixed well together and given in
small rations after the skim milk has
been fed. The calf should also have
free access to water and salt as well
as hay or pasture, as the season may
require. The grain may be changed
| to simply corn and oats or bran as
the calf grows older. say after three
months old In this way good calves
may be raised in an economic way, and
the valuable butter fat will be saved.
