Set In Her WAYS.

Sweet Mary Jane sat fourteen
days and wouldn't deign to rise, al
though her folks tried every way
to make her realize that it was
quite unladylike to sit all day and
night and never change her atti-
tude or rouse her appetite. They
coaxed and leased and threatened
her, and still she would not stand,
and when they tried to raise her up
she bit them on the hand. They
didn't want to do her harm or call
in the police, and yet they sorrowed
at the thought of Mary James dis
ease But Mary Jane knew what
was best. She wiser was than men.
She sat until she'd had her set, for
Mary was a hen.-St. Louis Repub-

you to do is to buy less of them, a
very simple and logical solution of a
grave difficulty.
We are not in the swine business to
use up all the waste and wasteful
products of the mills and food facto-
ries. although at proper prices many OF
these wastes ia their use mean ma
terial wealth to the farmer and pro-
ductive wealth to his land. But we
are rather aSsoclatiug with hogs that
we may induce them to turn the gross
unsuitable farm products into disable
coin OF the realm.
The answer to the feed question Is.
Buy less Of it. A well constituted hog
will eat almost anything that Is good.
AS matter Of fact. he often has to
secure his livelihood largely from al
most everything that is not good. But
this is not just a square deal for the
hog or always a net profit for his
owner.

At Fifty he was positive that there

'BJocks! I'll 90 ye," said Ehud
heartily, and he fell into step with
the young minister At the church
door he was overcome by modesty
and, declaring that he didn't have
his Sunday go to meetin' clothes
on, insisted upon sitting in one of
the most distant pews.
He didn't hear the sermon at all,
but he could tell when it was over
by seeing the young minister fold
up his manuscript and put it away.
This done, the young man began to
make announcements. Ehud raised
his right hand in a great leathery
scoop behind his ear, but still he
heard nothing.
'My dear friends" said the min
lister, ''it affords me great pleasure
to tell you that on Tuesday evening

Whom Nine. Sembrieh Got a Stage
Gown For Song.
Whenever l think of my early
operate experiences l delight to re-
call little dressmaker in Dresden
who literally sold me a stage gown
for a song. l had made my first
appearance and was well received.
Then word came that l was to APP
pear next as Violetta in '"Traviata."
Now, in Germany the curious Gus
tom obtains Of furnishing costumes
to the male singers and obliging the
women to dress themselves. At that
stage in MY career a role calling for
several elaborate evening gowns
meant a serious drain on my re-
sources. At the same time l real
lied that appropriate dressing was
vitality essential to my success.
Bravely l began my bargain hunt
ing, but the prices were far beyond
my fears. l was forced to resign
myself to do the best l could from
my own scant wardrobe. But no
ingenuity could encompass a suita-
bic ball gown for the third act. 1
started on another round Of the
shops, and good fortune bore me
this time to a smart looking little
place. The proprietress recognized
me and was most courteous. Just
the gown l wanted was the first
dress she produced. My voice trem-

named figure that put it as effec-
tually beyond my reach as the top
of Mont Blanc.
"What can you pay, madam !" she
asked gently as she read the disap-
pointment in my face.
Hesitatingly named sum less
than half the price she demanded.
"On one condition the gown is
yours" she said
"And what is that?" | asked
breathlessly.

and sing an aria for him and the
gown is yours at your own price"

means of saving him considerable
money before the summer passes.
a heavy wire is rolled into the edge
OF the crimp. the wire being, longer
than the sheet-say foot longer at
each corner This long end Is to be
used to make loop, also a cross brace
for the sheet OF the roof. Holes are
punched In the edge close under the
wire stlffener. A ! by 4 inch wood
piece Is nailed across the top side Of
underside of the lower end. The long
ends of the side stiffener wires are
bent around. forming a loop and sta
pied to the 1 by inch wood pieces
and the sheet Is ready 10 be placed on
the stack "a long staSk or rick. A
straight pole or 2 by inch is to
be placed along the ridge and a by
inch or 1 by 6 inch along the sides
Fasten the roofing to the ridgepole
with wire, and the edges Of sheets are
to be wired close and the whole roof
fastened to the stack by wiring down
to weights or stakes driven into the
stack. A few heavy soft wires cut TO
length and all ready and a stack could
be covered quickly and safely or half
up stack covered and opened again.
The cost should not be much more
than good lumber and would surely
be cheaper when convenience and last
ing qualities are considered In case
some roofing company does not put it
on the market lin Touchdown form,
local talent could be utilized to prepare
test quality. See that the side wire
is strong and long and when two
sheets are placed together they form
a reasonably close joint which is nigh
enough so that water running down
the roof will not run in at the holes
punched under the stiffener side wire
Use heavy soft wire to hold the seam

Means of Avoiding the Present High

Feeds are high. Of course; but, bless
your dear soul, where do the feeds
come from Don't we raise them all
on the farm? Well. yes. suppose
that is true in the abstract, but there
are feeds being sold today at quite
high prices that no man save the mixer
of them knows where they come from.
But in the main we must not com
plain about the high cost of feeds as
long as their cost Is only relatively
high to the selling price Of the animal
product. We must not complain be-
cause we are the producers of the
feeds or the grains from which the
feeds are made
