not many. and the land should be put

Uncle Joe" AS an Agent of Dan Cupid

The Uncle Joe Matrimonial Bu-
rear' had a most modest beginning.
Out in Stewardson, ILL.,, there lives a
young farmer who has been reading all
sorts of newspaper stories and maga-
zine articles about the higher cost of
living. He read that lots of young peo-
pie did not get married because the
cost of living was such that penury
and sorrow stared them in the face.
He was a bachelor and prosperous,
and it occurred to him that somewhere
in the land there must be the mate
that would make his home happier and
brighter, that might be just yearning
to get married. yet scared by all this
talk of poverty and trouble. The
young man wrote to Speaker Cannon.
He wrote modest postal card to say
that he had farm of 120 acres, and
that, like the hotel business, there was
always room for one more" He put
it up to the speaker to furnish the one
more.
Then Uncle Joe in the goodness of
his heart told a newspaper man about
the young farmer, and the newspaper
man put piece in the paper and the
Hood of letters started.

Moreover, I am used to it.
But while the abuse Is going around.
why not be impartial with it? What

you, is he not the greatest faker, the
greatest fourfusher. the greatest bum
combe artist that ever pretended to
look at cloud and tell you what was

What did he do this year? Did he
make good? Not a bit of It. He was
as far OF as we were about the prob
able weather conditions for March 4.

He crawled out of his hole on Feb
ruary 2, saw his shadow, got his pic
ture in every paper in the country. and
then beat it back to his lair, leaving
behind him the idea that the remain
der of February and all of March would
be marked by bad weather.
WAS 1t a reliable forecast? should
say not We have had the mildest and
most beautiful March In years. Yet

will be just as eager to believe in his

The best marked female calves
from the choicest cows should be
raised and not sold to the butcher be-
cause prices are up. In raising milch
cows we should aim to build up a
healthy frame and sound constitution,
with a faculty for turning a large
amount of food into a corresponding
amount of milk and cream; and when
we have raised an animal that is able
to do this, and also able to transmit
the same qualities to her offspring,
we have a valuable COW and her
calves are worth saving and careful
feeding and proper training.
The fall and winter-dropped calf
can be raised at less cost than the
spring g-dropped calf, as more time can
be given to the feeding, handling and
