To Teach Young
Alaskans |

With the departure of the
schooner P. ]. Adler Monday from
Seattle is finished the task Of
sending 1000 tons of miscellane-
Gus supplies to the schools in
Northern Alaska. Lumber and
material for four new school
houses, cattle for the Aleutian
islands, the first ever sent here,
form a part of the cargo. One of
the new government school houses
is at Hooper bay where no ship
is ever known to have touched.

closed about the biplane, and shut
off all the world. On the fragile

On every side there was nothing

Tests made with Tennessee finely
ground phosphorie rock. twenty-elght
per cent phosphoric acid. 1000
pounds per acre. on my farm, gave
'esults as follows:
Where no phosphoric rock was
used the corn averaged 4S.97 bushels
per acre Where 1000 pounds phos-
phoric rock was used the corn aver
aged 65.s2 bushels per acre. making
a gain Of 1855 bushels per acre over
the untreated soil. The soil was thin
where tests we're made.
The 1856 bushel gain used 1O.11
pounds of phosphoric acid, leaving
12s.S9 pounds of phosphoric acid for
the coming crops. The phosphoric
acid becomes available much faster
after the second year.
Stall manure. with which 100
pounds phosphorie rock was mixed at
time of hauling. made a gain of 17.49
bushels per acre over untreated ma
nure. The manure was used at the
rate of nine spreader loads per acre.
BY getting the supply Of phcsphoric
acid in this way it is a saving Of more
than half. The soil is very deficient
in this element of plant food.-Ira E.

CHANGE THE VIBRATION
It Makes For Health.

A man tried leaving OFF meat, 20.
tatoes. coffee, and ETC.. and adopted a
breakfast of fruit, Grape-Nuts with
cream. some crisp toast and a cup OF
Postum.
His health began to improve at
once for the reason that meat eater
will reach a place once in while
where his. system seems to become
clngged and the machinery doesn't
work smoothly.
A change Of this kind puts aside
food Of low nutritive value and takes
up food and drink Of the highest
value, already quickly digested and
capable OF being quickly changed into
good. rich blood and strong tissue.
A most valuable feature Of Grape
Nuts is the natural phosphate of pot
ash grown in the grains from which
# is made. This is the element which
transforms albumen In the body into
soft gray substance which fills brain
and nerve centres.
A few days use of Grape-Nuts will
gi7e one a degree of nervous strength

There is much variation in the yield
and quality of milk from the cows,
and no farmer can have herd uni
form unless he breeds for uniformity
by adhering to one breed; it may even
be necessary to rely on some particu-
lar family of the selected breed
Even then close and careful culling
of the herd will be necessary to secure
uniformity in richness of lilk. Have
measures and scales, learn how much
difference there is in the yield of the
cows, then have milk from, each COW
tested for butter fat and figure out
the most profitable cows Do not
take some other mans word for it,
but do 1t yourself
The perennial OF fat in milk from
a single COW may vary, one day giving
different results from the next. In
an experiment with choice Jersey
COW the milk was found to range
from a.45 per cent. to 5.S3 per cent
4 single test with COW may. there
fore, be of no value, as in the one
case more milk would be required
to make pound of butter than in
the othe-, as was shown in the varia-
tion of fat with the above experiment
Let the calf stay with the COW a
few hours only, then milk the COW in
few hours after removing the calf
and put the bucket OF warm milk to
the calf's nose so as to touch il, and
ir a minute or two it will drink. and
tn work is done. The calf will thus
have learned to drink like other aEi-
mails. and all trouble Of feeding milk
70 II will be over. The mistake usual
~ made is in allowing the young calf
to run with the COW several days. and
having learned to suck, it is hard to
teach it any other way Epitomist.
