a number OF years do you want to
know what the experience Is like?
"a hurricane will leap out of a clear
sky, sWoop down on city, blow ev-
erything in its path fat and pass on.
Then follows the tail of the hurricane,
a steady breeze blowing In the same
direction, but at a much lower yeloci-
ty. This is likely to continue for
many hours, sometimes for many days,
and is always accompanied by a tor
ential downpour OF rain.

was about to happen and, going to the

Niblock--Maxwcii.

The st. MaryS church was the
scene Of a pretty wedding this morn
ing when Miss Catherine Maxwell Of
Cleveland, Ohio, and Mr.. Andrew
Niblock Of Owosso, Mich, were unit
ed in the holy bonds of wedlock. The
services were conducted by Father
Wilken, the beautiful ring ceremony
being used. Mrs. James Place, sis
ter of the groom, was the brides at
tended, while Mr.. Thomas Mylott, a
brother-in-law of the groom, was
best man. The bride wore beauti-
full navy blue travelling suit with hat
to match, while the bridesmaid was
gowned in a beautiful suit of black
cloth. The men wore the usual black
Immediately after the services they
went to the home of the groom's sis
ter, Mrs. James Place, where a we'd
ding breakfast was served to a few
immediate relatives. This afternoon
they left for Cleveland, where they
will make short visit with|her par
ents and other relatives, later going
to Warren, Ohio, where they will
make their home. Mr. Niblock will
enter into business at that place but
as TO what he has not fully decided
He was a resident Of this city about
twenty-five years ago and is well
known by number of the people
here. From here he went to Owosso
where he has been employed in a
machine shop. Miss Maxwell, who
has been making her home at Cleye-
land, is also well known here, where
she has a large host of friends and
whose kind wishes will always be
with them.-Decatur, Ind, Demo-

no bodies are allowed to be taken
out of India.
The senator has already filed with
the secretary of state several letters
from prominent citizens of Corunna
and Shiawassee county, asking that
the secretary. use his Office With our
ambassador to Great Britain to Secure
a special permit for the removal of
the remains of Mrs Hawkins from
India to her old home in MICHIGAN
Mrs. Hawkins went to India three
years ago as the bride of William TT
Hawkins, who is a dentist. The
friends OF the dead woman are anxious
that she shall be buried In her native
state. and they have appealed to Sen.
ator Burrows to take the matter I'D

DAIRY NOTES.

+. ]. McRea, of Mt. Pleasant, re-
ceived $l,9l8.64 from milk sold from
seventeen cows during the past year.
In addition to this two families were
supplied with milk Dr. Consaul, of
the same city, received $77.7l. from
four cows for the month of Deem
Der.
The American Farm Products Co.
has opened cream station at Howell.
George Vinegar, of Perry town
ship, is an enthusiastic believer in the
silo system of stock feeding, particu-
larly his dairy cows. He backs this
system up with some very convincing
figures. Last year Mr.. Vinegar was
paid by the Bishop Creamery Com
pany, of Morrice, $l,l35.3l for cream
from fourteen cows. One-half of
these cows were. young. two and three
years old, and Mr. Vinegar expects
even better results from them another
year. He figures that he has received
20 per cent. more feeding them silage,
with a cost of 20 per cent. less than
under the old system. The average OF
each COW, to be exact, paid him $0o.8/,
figuring in the $6692 received from
the veal calves he sold last year
A. N. Palmeter, of Ashley, is con-
WINGED that good cows on the farm
are money-makers, and offers the fig
ures to prove it. During the year
1909 he kept four cows, from which
he realized the following: Milk sold
to factory, 1904. SO; milk used at home,
S14.60; received for four calves, $40.
Total, $4lol6 This is perhaps an ex-
ceptional record, but many others
could equal it by keeping a higher
grade of COWS and giving careful at
tention to the details of the business.
1t is we'll to remember that whether
person keeps one cow of twenty, only
the best will bring the largest returns.
