There is more Catarrh In this section Of
the country than ali other diseases put to-
gether. and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurable. For great many
years doctors pronounced It local disease
and prescribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local treatment
pronounced 1t tncurable Science has proven
catarrh to be a constitutional disease and
therefore requires constitutional treatment

all the particulars OF each hero. These
were The points he was to iook up:
"a The numIer of cows in each
herd. ~ The breed OF the COWS
90 The yearly COST Fl keep per COW.
"a The returns per COW from the
creamery. (5) The pounds Of mills
given per COW Tor the year. 60 TIRE
pounds of butter per COW. 90 The
price the butter sold at. go Average
price received for the milk per 100
pounds. 90 The amount earned per
COW for every dollar expended in
feed. counting pasture at IS. QO)
How many of these farmers read an
agricultural paper or dairy paper.
There were 100 farmers and herds
and farms studied in this census
There were 1,702 cows in the 100
herds, or 1902 cows to the farm.
11.89 of these COWS were registered
and grade Jerseys; 374 natives. and
badly mixed breeds; ~ were aoiste,n
grades; rs Devons; 5S Jersey and
Holstein grades; 4 grade Uurhams.
The average cost of keeping per COW
was S25.40 which is low,-too low,
as the earnings per COW W.T. show,
being only sS3.S9. The average year
ly production of milk per COW was D.
SAG pounds of butter, 1870 pounds
price obtained for milk per 90
pounds for the year was 92.66 cents
Now we come to the crucial test OF
these 100 farmers. That is. how
many of them received 81 and more
for every dollar invested in feed
counting pasturing at s.. Fffty-three
received one dollar and upwards for
each dollar spent in feed, and AZ less
than one dollar. Fourteen ranged
from 90c to s5c, loss of one to ten
per cent; 16 received from soc to
S9c, a loss of IL to 20 per cent. !;
eleven ranged from zoe to 79c for
each dollar spent, loss of 20 70
per cent; three received only &c
CSC and sc; two received soc and
sec, loss of from Al to 80 per cent.
| wish to call your attention to
some of the wide differences be-
tween patrons in the way of profit
and loss No. 81 received 81. Sc for
each dollar spent in feed. His cows
cost him $37 each for keeping. No.
E87 received $17.S1 from the cream
cry, and his cows cost him $50 each
for keeping. He lost just 80 cents
for every dollar speut in feed, No.
"a received $164 for every dollar in
vested in feed. No. AS received SO
cents for every feed dollar So it
goes down the list
What do You suppose it was thai
made the AZ fall behind and lose as
they did? Let me give you a point
Ter. Twenty-Five only of 800 men
read dairy and agricultural Tftera,
ture, and strange to say, in every
instance, those that did the most
reading and made the closest study.
they were the ones who made the
largest profit. Think of it in these
enlightened days. and in the great
dairy state of New York at that;
seventy-one percent of one-hundred
dairy farmers -2ading no dairy ut
erature whatever. When AZ men out
/ cent to 80 cents for every dollar
they spend il iced. don't you think
they ought to chan re their methods?

Old Lace.

You should never clean old laees
with gasoline, and for very good
reason. The gasoline which is the
far-famed and proverbial grease re-
mover, will take the natural Oil out
OF the lace threads, which, it must be
remembered, are a vegetable product,
rendering them crisp, stiff and liable
to snap
Lace should first be soaked in cold
water, then shaken In a bottle in
lukewarm water, to which has been
added the merest pinch of borax.
This should be thoroughly rfnsed out.
to prevent is rotting the delicate
fabric. When lace is very handsome
it should first be basted to old linen
to keep it from stretching, and it
should be speedily taken out of the
hottest rays of the sun when thor
oughry dry. There IS no necessity for
scorchfng it fndefin ly.

output, according to the men on tne

excellent in flavor.
