There shC,.id be few sheep on al
most every farm. 1t is easily admit
ted that few horses. few cattle. a
few pigs and some poultry must be
kept on every farm, from necessity or
because they are ecAomical. Why
not sheep?
If the dogs bother the sheep, shoot
the dogs The chief objection is that
the people don't understand sheep;
but they cannot possibly understand
them until they begin to deal with
them A few sheep may do better
than good many. Fifty would be a
few" on a 100 or 200 acre farm.
II. A. Winter Of Marshall county is
a very practical farmer and he be-
iieves that each year the lambs sell
for as much as the mothers cost and
that the wool pays the cost of the
keep. The eve, weighing 120 pounds,
at five cents a pound cost Sc.
1t is no exaggeration to say that
there will be as many lambs as ewes.
A 100 pound lamb will sell at six
cents. bringing s6-as much as the
mother cost. This eve will shear a
nine pound fleece, which at 20 cents
will sell for $780, which will pay for
the keep of the eve and offspring.
The farmer still has the eve,
which at Az cents pound will bring
S5,40-a profit of 80 per cent on the
investment.
Sheep delight to clean up neglected
places. in the potato patch, the pig
lots. the stubblefeld. fence rows. here
there and anywhere.
l.. H. Helbig of Livingston county
counts that his sheep have made him
$1,000 from fence rows in three years
and he has got rid Of many noxious
weeds.
In Minnesota 1t was found that out
of 480 kinds of weeds there were only
so kinds that sheep would not eat
Sheep need care and with care will
return profit.
But the farmer must not fail to care
for these few sheep. The beginner
can learn more from few sheep than
from many; he can know each one
individually and it's troubles. If you
are to do sheep any good when ailing
you must get at them quickly.

ear few degrees there is something

Salads.

Salads are such favorite dishes that
we never seem to have the menu
quite complete without one or two
an appetizer to begin meal others,
enjoy one as a dessert so that the
salad may grace almost any course
acceptably.
For a dinner that salad should al
ways be light II meats are served, but
that 1t may take the place of the main
dish, such as chicken, lobster or SAL
mon A salmon salad being rich in oil
of the fish, Is more palatable when
put together with a simple boiled
dressing with chopped pickle in the
dressing. For a simple dinner salad
of such vegetables as lettuce, cress or
dandelion, the French dressing is es-
pecially appropriate. A mayonnaise
is good served with chicken and eel
cry. Egg salad Is nice for lunch
con or supper
Cucumbers, when used in salad,
should be peeled. sliced and laid In
ice water to keep them crisp. This
also removes some of the acrid prin-
ciples which cause gastric disturb
! ances in some stomachs.
For a fruit salad for dessert there
is nothing quite SO nice as the juice
of fruit for a salad dressing. If pine
apple juice is at hand, boil 1t with
sugar to make a rather thick syrup.
Pour this over different sliced fruits.
Another dressing equally acceptable
| for fruits is made by cooking two ta-
blespoonfuls each of butter and flour
| together. Add one-half cup of sugar,
one-half cup of orange juice and one
| quarter of cup of lemon juice,
! cooked until smooth. When cold serve
on apple, nut, celery, banana, with a
| few dates, or any combination of fruit

cream cheese. Arrange the tender
heart leaves of head lettuce. Prepare
cream cheese, we'll seasoned with
chopped chives, reG pepper and salt,
and mold with butter paddles into the
size of good-sized marbles. Roll
each in finely minced parsley or
chives, arrange on the lettuce leaves
and serve with any dressing liked.

Helping the Minister.

A Scotch preacher had in his con-
gregation an old woman who was
deaf. In order to hear the sermon
each Sunday, this old lady would seat
herself at the foot of the pulpit stairs.
One day the sermon was about Jonah,
and the preacher became very rhetor-
ical
And when the sailors threw Jonah
overboard," he said, "a big fish swal-
lowed him up. Was it shark that
got i'm? Nay, my brethren, it was

Unexpected Recommendation.

One day, when Lord Thurlow was
very busy at his house in Ormond
street, a poor curate applied to him
for living, then vacant.
Don't trouble me-" said the chan
cellor, turning upon him with frown-
ing brow Don't you see | am busy
and can't listen to you?-what duke or
lord recommended you?"
The poor curate lifted up his eyes
and, with detection, said he had nc
lord to recommend him but the Lord
of Hosts.

chancellor, "the Lord of Hosts!-I he
lieve | have had recommendations
from most lords, but do not recollect
one from him before; SO, do you hear

Some Luxuries Needed.

Those stern economists who are
pointing out that the people of small

forget that even such people have a
moral right to something beyond the
bare necessities of life. The rapid

their first great work was To try to
solve the problem OF the home
Among other things they established
public kitchens 50 that soups, meats
and vegetables can be obtained warm
when the people returned from work
They established nurseries to care
FOR the babies OF working mothers.
They established school restaurants
for those children whose parents were
imprisoned all day in the factory.
And why? Because capitalism has
destroyed those homes!
Socialists realize that SO long as
the resent system lasts it is impossible
for them 10 free from toll mothers

WILL SOCIALISM DESTROY THE
HOME
(By Robert Hunter.)

1t is sometimes said that Socialism

homes.
VIII it destroy the homes OF the
merry widows of Reno, Nevada?
Will it destroy the homes OF tn"
young American girls who have mar.
ried disso?ute foreign noblemen?
Will it destroy the novels and in
sanitary. overcrowded renements in
which the poor are today herded like
cattle?
Will it destroy the homes of the
mothers who rise at dawn to leave for
the factory?
Will it destroy the homes OF sick
fathers and anxious wives and hungry
fretting babies?
Will it destroy the homes of that
multitude of women who have mar
ried not for love but for support?
few years ago l spent some time
in France, where the Socialists con.

1t is common knowledge that among
the poor of France. illegitimacy is
very common.
To what extent that illigitimacy
is due to inability on the part OF the
poorest workmen to pay fees for mar.

But we do know that the fees thai
are charged by the clergy for perform

times cXhorbitant.
In any case multitude of young
boys and girls refuse to pay fees to
the clergy and limit the marriage ser

Well in the great city of Lille, the
Socialists took action on this question
OF illcgitimacy.
And to overcome it they established
a free marriage service, the fees q

municipality.
Since that time thousands OF mar

Of the poor, capitalism has destroyed

forced TO give their children to the
street and themselves to the factory
Some of them had hardly time to

THE GREAT ORGANIZATION WAVE

Organization is everything these
days, and a great tidal wave of it
has swept and is sweeping over the
country in every line of human en-.
deaVor. industry and commerciaIism.
Not only are the workers organic.
ing, but the employers and capitalists
are also learning its advantages and
are forming corporate bodies for NUT
ual protection and advancement. Silly
arguments against this one great
theme OF unfonism being the secret
OF strength are falling like weed by
the wayside, while the searchIfght OF
truth is being turned on organization
with a great white glow which makes
its manifold advantages SO apparent
that even the most skeptical canno,
fail to see them.
Nearly every trade and profession
Is organized these days, and those
that are not are away behind the
times, and, being so far in the rear of
the procession of progress, must nat
urally suffer all the ills that beset
anyone in this enlightened age who
competition of the twentieth century
makes organization imperative as
method of self-preservation. No
longer does individual effort count
for much, and it is onnly concerted
action that amounts to anything In
the constant struggle that is ever
going on. Where the single business
has never ta1
mercial monopoly the business or
ganization has merged hundreds o;
industries and controlled the market
All OF this aptly demonstrates the
vast amount of power which is OBJ,
tanned through organization.
The military general was the first
to find out the magic of organization.
Thousands of years ago he discovered
that hundred wcll-drilled men could
defeat mob OF thousands of undisf
pltned warriors. century ago the
great French thinkers, Fourier and
Saint Simon, proclaimed the fact that
organization should be applied to in
dustry as we'll as 10 war. Our Amer.
lean capitalists were the first to rea.
lie this, and the result has been the
pilinG up OF enormous fortunes and
the forming OF gigantic corporations.
1t is beyond human power to est.
mate the vast amount of power that
has come out of organization. or to
form even a faint idea of the vastly
increased power it has brought to
those who have been possessed O.:
sufficient wisdom to adopt it. II has
transformed slaves into men and
given voice to the dumb. II mas ma le
the weak strong and the helpless
irresistible 1t has enhanced the value
OF everything, and has planted in the
bosom of man the seeds of eternal
brotherhood and good fellowship. ann
mas benefited each and every person
identified with its worthy cause.
1t Is the symbol of might and the
synonym of power. 1t gives the indi-
vidual the force of the entire organ
ization. and endows all manner OF men
with increased confidence in himself
and his fellow-man. All this will or
ganization do for the toiler, as it has
done for millions of others.
