There are two important things TO
keep In mind in producing calves for
future milk production One is that

A calf is about the cheapest and
easiest large animal raised on the
farm. The production of calves in the
dairy bushes is a necessity in order
TO have the cows freshen yearly, or at
regular intervals. AS far as feed and
care are concerned, It is almost as
easy TO raise 800 calf as II is to
raise a $40 one. There is good profit
in the former. but absolutely no profit
in the latter. In fact, cheap calf
consumes much more feed than II will

The Giant Bible.

There is in the Royal library at
Stockholm, among other curiositles, a
manuscript work known as the Giant
Bible, on account OF It's extraordinary
dimensions. II measures about 35
inches in length-and is about 10 inches
in breadth. It requires three men to
lift it. There are 800 pages, but seven
have been lost. The parchment Of
which the book is composed required
the skins OF 100 asses. There are two
columns on each page, and the book
contains the Old and New Testaments,
with extracts from "Josephus" The
initial letters are illuminated. The
binding is Of oak, four and one-half
centimeters In thickness. The book
narrowly escaped destruction In the

In 1897. II was saved. but somewhat

RalslnQ Calf on Milk.

1t is an expensive proposition to
raise calf on milk at the present
market price. The quantity of milk
which a calf will require for its main.
tenance and growth may be somewhat
reduced by early teaching the calf to
eat hay. corn and other foods. The
young calf will learn to eat shelled
corn at four or Ave weeks of age and
hay at the same age. or even earlier.

regularly the milk ration may he re-

caused a goodly number of taxpayers
to "sit up and take notice" To one

stunning when viewed in the light of
the great expenditure of money on
the roads. At the December term of

and in the evening a splendid musi-

Christmas anthems were the main
features of the program.
A happy throng Of young people,
both large and small filled the
church on Monday night to enjoy the
Christmas tree and program. Santa
Claus was little late in coming, but
four kilograms were received from
him during the program, keeping the
eager little ones advised of his pro-
gress. At last he came, accompanied
by his two boys, Chris and Nick.
Santa was as youthful and frisky
as ever and kept the audience in
good humor. One little tot thought
he was a long time coming to her
name and when It was at last called
she told him with all confidence how
tired she was. As she returned to

CHURCHES give
CHRISTMAS CHEER
TO THE Children
First Baptist Church.

The largest audience that ever
met in the enlarged building was
present at the Christmas exercises
given by the Bible school. The
musical part of the program was es-
pecially commendable. The chorus
chior of some forty voices, supported
by an eight-piece orchestra, led the
music. The decorations were simple
but tasty. Large evergreen festoons
nearly encircled the room. Beside
the platform was the decorated
Christmas tree and back of the ros-
trum was a brick fireplace filled
with candy and nuts.
Aside from the recitations, dia-
logues and set pieces, there were
three tableaux. One scene repre-
sented two little ones hanging their
stockings before being tucked into
bed. Another the shepherds finding
the Christ child, and still another
of the wise men following the star.
At the close of the program an offer
ing for giving the gospel in foreign
lands was taken and hung in stock
ing. After this Santa Claus appear
