who uesigned the new metal folding
bed.
This bed consists of bed on which
the framework stands upright when
not in use for sleeping purposes. A
curtain hangs from the raised foot
and not only conceals the furniture,
but provides sort of screen behind
which clothing may be hung on the
wall, if space is much needed. The
whole is held in an upright position
by clamps which engage the fulcrum
rod and the standards.
By loosening these clamps the bed
is released and may be let down to
the floor, cross-bar at the foot
keeping it the proper height. The
bed is pivoted to the base at its head
and the base acts as a support for
this end. 1t will be readily noted
that one of these metal folding beds
has the advantage of being easy to
keep clean and there is no danger of
a powerful spring closing it as you
lie sleeping.-Boston Post.

BY CHESTERTON TODD.

Having retired from active busi-
ness. l desire to dispose of my aero
plane. 1t is light, airy machine and
capable of great speed. On my last
trip it reached the earth, a distance
of some 500 feet, in less than two
seconds.
This machine was made under my
personal supervision and has several
unique features not found in other
and more common affairs 1t has a
neat sponge rack, where a gossamer
bathing suit can be stored in case of
emergency. 1t also carries tooth
bush and has place where a foun-
tain pen can be neatly packed.
Another admirable innovation not
found elsewhere is silk fish net,
hung beneath, so that in case of any
thing wrong with the machinery you
can crawl under and monkey with
the engine without personal danger
if you are reasonably quick on your
back. The engine is also covered Sc
curely by water-tight rubber bag,
to protect it from the inroads of the
ocean or other bodies of water.
With my aeroplane 1 will furnish
full set of instructions: How to
mount, how to start off and how to
steer Unfortunately, I am unable
to give personal demonstration ow-
ing to previous engagement. The
following hints, however, may be
found to be of interest to the novice.
Do not wait until you have started
before testing your steering appara-
tus. l did this the last time 1 was
out. Do not swoop too near the
earth in moments of supreme conf
dence. 1t is hard to take large
slice from the top of some hill and
still retain your composure. If at
first you don't succeed, try, try again.
New parts can always be obtained in
few hours.
If any one is interested in my ma
chine, I should be pleased to have
them look it over. 1t is in splendid
order, having been recently rebuilt.

Farm Notes.

Keep off surplus fat by feeding
muscle-producing foods to horses.
Train the young horse to be a rapid
walker; he will not learn it when he
is older.
There is constantly increasing de-
mand for good draft horses. Breed
for them.
Feed little oil meal during the
winter. 1t keeps the horses in ex-
cellent shape.
select one team to do the winter
work. The other horses will require
less grain to keep in good condition.
Horse sires transmit the most OF
their undesirable points. Be sure
they have none before breeding to
them.
thousands of kind-hearted men in
1ure their horses by overlooking. 1t
is not what the horse eats, but what
he digests, that counts.
Any number of disconnected farm
ers have spent enough time looking
around at other places to have paid
on the mortgage on their old place.
There's a good deal of talk about
the apple show. the corn show. and SO
on. Almost any old crop has a good
show II the farmer goes about 1t
right.
Oats is the ideal feed for horses.
Inc Kernel proper contains a large
amount of nutriment. The bulls fur
nish the material bulk, thereby tend
ing to prevent overlooking. Bran
ana oats are the best feeds for colts.
Heavy draft mares will raise you a
grade draft colt that is worth from
$l2o to 5000 at two or three years
ola, while they are doing regular
tarm work, and when these same
mares are bred to light horses their
colts will bring only 500 to s125 at
Two or three years old; hence the
advantage of breeding to pure bred
draft horses.

Heroes Of the Common Lot.

1t is one of those blessed contradic-
lions that make life worth living, that
after the horrors of the coal mines
the world looks brighter. We have
been reminded that all men are not
mere cogs of an industrial machine;
that they are not above self-sacrifice;
and that rough exteriors cover the
virtues of which the poets have sung
and to which men have erected noble
monuments.
The heroism of the common lot!
That we have seen again, and seeing,
we lose, at least, for the moment, the
memory of the pettiness and the
meanness of that same common lot
and find ourselves glad that we are
men.-Editorial in the World To-Day.

or any OF the other little things usu-
ally carried in the ordinary card case,
which fits inside the pockets. An
arched wire frame fits inside the GER

into the crown, not touching the top.
The framework has yoke, to which
the case is attached, and the springy
support prevents the contents of the
case from being bruised, bent or
crushed in any way. Though this de-
vice Is useful for any one, it is par
ticularly convenient for policemen or

A Quaint Endorsement.

j. Pierpont Morgan at the recent
diocesan convention in New York
amused group of clergymen with a
story of a minister.
HE was as ignorant, this good
man, of financial Matters" said Mr..
Morgan. "as the average financier is
ignorant of matters ecclesiastical.
He once received a check - the
first he ever got in his life-and took
it to a bank for payment.
But you must indorse the check
said the paying teller, returning it
through his little window.
'Indorse it?' said the old minister
in puzzled tone.
Yes, of course. 1t must be in
dorsed on the back
see,' said the minister And
turning the check over, he wrote
across the back of it:
I heartily indorse this check"

Alfalfa and the Champion.

Referring to the fat steer which
took the champion prize at the late
International Chicago Show, which
was exhibited by the Kansas Agricul-
tural College, Professor Kinzer, of
that institution, says this steer was
fed on alfalfa, with corn and bran
as minor foods. But alfalfa vas the
chief food in fattenting this steer,
and is nearly a balanced ration OF It
self. When stock growers learn that
alfalfa is TT with a big l, in stock
feeding, more of it will be grown.
Let us keep in mind that alfalfa is

Home Pasteurization of Milk.

Milk delivered in the cities in the
summer months frequently contains
bacteria in such large numbers that
it is not safe food for children. es-
pecially for infants whose food con-
sists entirely of milk. In many cities
special milk can be secured, but
this is sometimes difficult and always
involves additional expense
Under such circumstances it is ad-
visable to pasteurize all milk con-
sumed by small children. The pas
teurization should be done in such a
way that disease producing bacteria,
as well as those likely to produce in
testinal disturbances, are destroyed
without at the same time injuring
the flavor or the nutritive value of
the milk. This may be accomplished
in the home by the use of a simple
improvised outfit.
Milk is most conveniently pasteur-
lied in the bottles in which it is de-
livered. To do this use small pail
with perforated false bottom. An
inverted pie tin with a few holes
punched in it will answer this pur(
pose. This will raise the bottles from
the bottom of the pail, allowing a
free circulation of water and pre-
venting humping of the bottles.
Punch hole through the cap of one
Of the bottles and insert a ther-
mometer. The ordinary floating
type Of Thermometer is likely to be
inaccurate, and if possible a good
thermometer with the scale etched
on the glass should be used. Set the
bottles of milk in the pail and fill the
pail with water nearly to the level of
the milk. Put the pail on the stove
or over gas fame and heat it until
the thermometer in the milk shows
not less than $50 nor more than 155
degrees Fahrenheit. The bottles
should then be removed from the
water and allowed to stand from
twenty to thirty minutes. The tenn
perature will fall slowly, but may be
held more uniformly by covering the
bottles with towel. The punctured
cap should be replaced with new
one, or the bottle should be covered
with an inverted cup.
After the milk has been held rs
directed it should be cooled as quickly
and as much as possible by setting in
water. To avoid danger of breaking
the bottle by too sudden change of
temperature, this water should be
warm at first. Replace the warm
water slowly with cold water. After
cooling, milk should in all cases be
held at the lowest available tempera-
ture.
This method may be employed to
retard the souring of milk or cream
for ordinary uses. 1t should be re-
membered, however, that pasteuriza-
ton does not destroy all bacteria in
milk, and after pasteurization it
should be kept cold and used as soon
as possible. Cream does not rise h.
rapidly or separate as completely in
pasteurized milk as in raw milk

Restoring Mich Cows.

Please give me some light on the
following: Suppose one gets mich
COW that is naturally good, but has
been neglected and run down in guam
tity of milk. Can such COW be very
soon brought up in milk and butter
by. good feeding? j. o. P.
Answer-Experience has shown
that when this results from long neg
lect, as stated. it requires considera-
BILE time to restore the COW to normal
results. If the neglect comes when
the cow was young, she is rarely ever
made good mixer afterward. In
such cases a good deal of benefit will
come from good food and treatment.

A Sanitary Barn.

Good sanitation is more and more
coming into practice in modern dairy
ing. Build sanitary barn if you
can. and if you cannot, then remodel
the cow stalls and make them as COM
Portable and sanitary as possible.
Floors that can be kept dry and clean,
and walls and ceilings that do not
catch dirt, or are easily cleaned, and
plenty Of light and ventilation, are
essentials for good dairy stable sani-
tation. The work may be done a
little at a time.-Farmer's Guide.
