A Hlbernian Verdict,

A New Yorker is the happy employ
er of an aged Irishman, who grows
eloquent over the woes of the EN-
erald isle. Said the boss: Pat, the
king of England is dead"
The old man was silent for a mo-
ment. Then he took off his hat.
WELL" he said slowly, "as a man
he was a fine bit of a boy. AS Eng

can make them. AS king, there was
nobody on earth as could beat him

Get After the Files.

With the warm days flies multiply
amazingly. Now is the time to at
tack them and prevent the breeding
of millions from the few hundreds that
already exist.
Perhaps the most effective method
of destroying flies is by burning
pyrethrum in each room. This stuns
the flies and they can be swept up and
burned.
Flies are dangerous carriers of dis
ease and an enemy of humankind. Do
your part toward keeping down the
pest and improving the health of your
community.

ChildrenIs Skins.

Every now and then a child's skin
will break out in some. kind of a rash
and folks think it caught the trouble at
school or somewhere away from home.
Half the time the trouble is caused
by the use Of unwholesome yellow
soaps for washing clothing. They leave
the dirt in the goods and make the
clothing harsh and irritating to the skin.
No wonder the rash breaks out. Easy
Task soap is clean and white and sani-
tary and is best for children's clothes
and yours, too. Get it at your grocers.

DAIRY COWS
FIGHT FLIES
No Time for Making MIR While
Thus Employed Should
Have Clean Water and
Shaded Place.

A COW that has to fight flies all day
in pasture where the grass is scant,
travel half mile or more every time
she wants drink, and stand all night
in hot, close and dirty stable ought
not to be expected to earn much mon
ey by her milk.
Why, the COW is actually fighting
for her life during the hot days un-
less she is properly cared for, and if
she gives drop of milk it is more
than she ought to do.
Cows drink a surprisingly large
amount of water every day if they
can. In herd of a dozen some of
them will be taking mouthfuI every
hour of the day where these is a run
ming stream or cool, clean water in
trough.
If cows have to travel half mile
three or four times a day in hot
weather to get drink they will GER
tainly lose in the milk-giving power
every time 1t isn't nature to keep up
normal supply under such condi-
tions
1t is not an uncommon sight to see
cows running wildly across the sun
scorched field, mad with thirst and
the torment of flies, in search Of
shade and water.
Is it reasonable to suppose the milk
supply can be kept up when a COW is
in such misery? Hardly.
A COW is milking machine and
should be treated as such. If she is
of good dairy blood, has good food,
clean water, shade, and is kept free
from worry, she will pay her way
every time. But even a COW has her
limitations.

The Luggage Question.

Delaney Nicoll, lawyer, is always
a well-dressed man, and abominates a
slovenly appearance. At the Union
club he said of a westerner one day:
He has come on to New York for
a week and l don't believe he has
brought stitch of luggage with him. -
Here Mr.. Nicoll smiled.
Unless, indeed" he added, hes
slowed something in the large bags
he carries in the knees of his trou-

LOSE TIME, SEED AND MONEY

Time spent in putting corn ground
in good condition before planting is
never wasted If the soil is well fined
the weeder can be run over it just
before the corn comes up and cul-

than if the ground is left in a rough

In case of drought well fined soil

TENT REQUIRING NO POLES
Minnesota Man InVents Handy Ar

This tent requires no poles on which
