LACK OF SUFFICIENT MILK
INCREASES TUBERCULOSIS

Miss Caroline Ehlert visiting nurse
of the Houghton County Anti-Tuper-
culosis society. fears that the scarcity
of milk in this section of the country,
due TO the dryness of the present sea-
son and the consequent lack of fodder,
may interfere TO a great degree with
the work of the socity among the suf-
fe-ers from tuberculosis and cause an
increase in the number of cases in the
county. A part OF the treatment pre-
scribed for the tuberculosis patients
by the visiting nurse is a strict diet
in which milk forms one Of the most
important factors, the patient being
required to consume about two quarts
OF the tactical nuid each day.
Miss Ehlert has always had diff
Guilty in finding places where the proper
amount and kind OF milk can be found
for the patients she has on her
list and the number of persons keeping
cows has grown less because several
have sold their cows upon finding that
the money they were getting for the
milk was not enough TO pay Cor fod-
der and show a profit. The visiting
nurse requests that any persons who
have milk TO sell advise the society by
postal or telephone. The high price of
milk and the threatened increase i'm
this price are matters which cause
great alarm TO Miss Ehlert and the
leaders of the work against the
white plague" in this county.

Art of Papermnking.

In the matter Of making and using
paper we are not in line with the Chi.
nese and other Asiatics, who not only
make the finest paper in the world,
but apply it to all sorts of uses, max
ing window panes, fans, umbrellas,
sandals, and even cloaks and other
garments of it. The art of making pa
per from mulberry bast is said to have
been invented in China in the second
century, B. G. Afterward bamboo
shoots, straw, grass and other materi-
ais were also used. The manufacture
spread to the adjacent countries. The
Arabs learned it in Samerkand, and
their learned men carefully kept Sc.
cret the process by which they made
paper for their own use. The crusades
made Europe acquainted with the art,
and the first paper mill in Germany
dates from the twelfth century.

Effect of Heat.

When one stands before hot fire
the face becomes red, as we all know
This result is the effect of the action
of radiated heat on the nerves con-
trolling the small blood vessels of the
skin. These tiny vessels are normally
in a state of moderate contraction.
Under exposure to heat they relax
and become distended with blood. The
same process, under the mysterious
connection of the vasomotor nerve sys.
TEN with mental impressions, pro.
duces ordinary blushing.
In regard to exposure to direct heat
the reddening of the skin, together
with the uncomfortably warm feeling
accompanying it, may be lookeS upon
as one of the useful little danger
signals" with which we are surround
ed. Persons who from any cause have
lost their susceptibility, as is the case
in some forms of paralysis, may ex.
pose limb to heat until serious in
jury results.
The reason that the face chiefly
flushes is that in the ordinary posi-.
tion near fire it Is most directly ex-
posed to the rays of heat, while most
Of tfe body is shielded by clothing;
that the nerves of the face are partic-
ularly sensitive in this respect and
that the skin there is more abundant.

A Good Forage Crop.

Canada peas and oats is a favorite
forage crop with many New York state
farmers. The crop may be sown from
early spring to the middle of May. By
making sowings at intervals Of two
weeks, a succession of crops may be
had. The common rate of sowing is
one and one-half bushels of each per
acre. The peas are usually scattered
broadcast c1 disked or narrowed
ground, and then turned under about
thre or four inches deep. The ground
Is then narrowed and the oats drilled
few days later. The land may first
be prepared and each crop drilled sep
arately, but this is not usually as sat
isfactory as the other method. Peas
and oats are good for hay or to cut
and feed green. When the oats are
heading and the peas blossoming one
may begin to cut for green feed. For
hay the oats should be in the milk
stage, and the peas should have we'll.
formed pods. Peas and oats can also
be pastured to advantage with hogs.
This crop will give yield Of five to
seven tons per acre of green weight.

something. How much money had
they? One of the four took out his

"Oh. have hundred and forty"

RARE PAINTING DISCOVERED.
Picture Declared to BE Work of
Feti, Sixteenth Century Artist.

=
Feti, Sixteenth Century Artist.
A rare and very valuable painting
of David" said by experts to be the
work Of the famous sixteenth century
Italian artist, Domenico Feti, has been
discovered in Philadelphia, the Public
Ledger of that city says. 1t has been
in the possession of we'll known man
who, however, is not an authority on
art, for some years, and while he and
his friends always admired it for it's
beauty and the mellowness of its col
loring, it has been only in the past
week that it came to the notice of ex-
perts, who enthusiastically pronounced
1t a genuine Feti, and worth probably
$25 5000.
The picture is vigorous in treatment
and remarkably strong in color, tech
nique and the general handling of the
subject. The figure of the Biblical
hero is youthful and beautiful. In the
dark shadows of the lower foreground
is dimly seen the severed head of the
giant Goliath. The picture is said to
be one of the few large ones done by
Feti. 1t is about four feet by six feet.
The painting is on exhibition in a
window at 1884 Chestnut street and
has attracted much attention.
Domenico Feti was born in Rome in
1889 and died at Venice in 1924. He
became a follower of Ludovico Cigoli
and afterward went to Mantua, where
he obtained the patronage of Cardinal
Gonzaga who, on coming to the duke
dom, a; ointed him his court painter.
Unfortu htely, however, Feti gave way
to intemperance, and this shortened
his days. He adopted the style of
Guilio Romano without, however, be-
Ing mere imitator. His coloring is
forcible and the expression of his fig.
ures animated. His works, though
chiefly of small size, are very scarce.
There are four of them in the Corsini
palace of Florence and one in the Man
tua Academy, while others are in
Dresden, Munich and Vienna. Feti
was great favorite of the celebrated
picture collector, M. Crozat.

Value of the siIo.

The Missouri Experiment Station
summarizes the value of the silo as
follows: Silage keeps young stock
thrifty and growing all winter. 1t
produces fat beef more cheaply than
does dry feed. 1t enables cows to pro-
duce milk and butter more econom-
ically. 1t is more conveniently han
died than dry fodder. The silo pre-
vents waste of cornstalks in the ma.
nure when silage is fed. The silo will
make palatable food of stuff that
would not otherwise be eaten. 1t en-
ables the farmer to preserve food,
which natures at rainy time of the
year. when dry would be next to i'm.
possible. 1t is the most economical
method of supplying food for the stock
during the hot, dry periods in sum.
