Scene. From ''The Harvest Nfoon,' at


 Jackson's Next Monday Evening. aration from Fullerton. She is very like this mother in appearance, and the aunt constantly predicts a sim- liar fate for her. This is the posture of events at the opening of the pay when the Fullertons receive visit from a distinguished Frenchman Mon sieur Vavin, member of the French Academy. and an autocrat in the Parisian world of letters. He is D 1ra's real father, having married the moth CT after her divorce. Vavin is not slow in discovering the atmosphere of negative suggestion which has been created by the aunt Cornelia. In fit of petulant resentment Aunt Cor nelia d,scloses to Dora her doubtful parentage. The girl breaks down un- der the shock of the intelligence, but hre true father restores her self-con- fdence by revealing his identity and proving that she was born in lawful wedlock. Augustus Thomas has han dled this delicate theme in a most masterly way and George Nash, who plays the principal part of Vavin, gives an impersonation that has been praised as flawless. The company be- sides MT. Nash includes sterling play CTS of the calibre of Adelaide Nowak, Jennie Eustace. Marearet Sayres, John Saville, Thomas Russell and Ste phen Wright. The box office opens Thursday morning at o'clock.

Think twice before selling the good
COW and then don't sell her.
Care must be taken not to get the
cream too sour for churning. N
Remember the COW likes regular
meal hours as well as you do.
See that the dairy COW at all times
has access to clear. fresh water.
The best thing with which to clean
a separator is small. stiff brush.
II the COW Is to produce pure milk
she must have pure food and water.
One cannot properly clean milk
pals without the use of boiling water.
1t is poor economy to keep from the
COW the feed from which milk and
hutter-fat can be produced. When you
cut down on the feed. you cut down
on your profit.
This is the most trying time Of the
season for the dairy cow She has

Willie's teacher began to like him

A further serious objection to run

Rest for the. MIX Maker.

Whenever COW has been SO bred
as to produce milk continuously when
fairly well fed it is better for the COW
to feed her well and continue to milk
her up to the time of calving. But 1t
must be remembered that such cows
are phenomenal and do not represent
the common run of good (not bad)
dairy COWS. Hence. as rule, it is
better to allow the average COW six
weeks rest between the milking pc
riod and the freshening.

found satisfactory in all respects. This
consists of an inclosure with stable
and breeding pen as shown in the &C
companying illustration. The bull run
is so feet square. including the stable.
and is inclosed by solid board fence
61s feet high. The boards are nailed
onto by AS from the inside, which
insures great stability. The breeding
pen is also made solid by using one
inch boards and is 61z feet high. The
COW is bred in this pen by tying her to
the front end and then letting in the
bull by opening the stable door The
latter closes the pen when opened as
shown in the cut The bull is fed
through an opening in the stable.
Water is supplied in the same way.
A board walk, about one foot wide
and 2h feet high. is placed along the
outside of the breeding pen. The at
tendant stands on this walk and drives
the bull back into the stable after the
COW has been served. For convenience

door is put into the front of the
right-hand end of the breeding pen.
While bull can be managed in a
pen such as is here described without
coming in contact with him. it is best
to lead him out occasionally with "a
stick snapped into the ring Of his
nose. 1t is always we'll to keep a bull
accustomed to being led with a stick.

were no better, for found the toast

"a friend persuaded me to quit the

foods, and use Postum and Grape-Nuts
instead. shall never regret taking
his advice. began using them three

WHY NEW ORLEANS
CITY 10 LOGICAL POINT FOR
WORLDS PANAMA EXPOSITION.
its Geographical Position and Many
Other Considerations Mark II ~
Most suitable Spot for 0sdi-
cation Of Great Work.

Public sentiment has decided that
the completion OF the Panama Canal
In 1915 shall be celebrated with .
great International Exposition In
which all the nations Of the world
may participate; and the question OF
where this Exposition II to be held
will be settled by Congress at its ap-
preaching session.
New Orleans and San Francisco
are contesting for the honor of hold
ing this Exposition, and both cities
have guaranteed immense sums OF
money rs an evidence Of their ability
to finance SO great an enterprise.
An Exposition worthy Of the term
Worlds Fair" such as New Orleans
proposes to build, will be q great ed
ucational movement. Its success ~
such. however. win depend entirely
upon the percentage of our popula-
ton who can secure fts educational
advantages. this in turn, depends up
on its location. ~ the time in travel
ing to and from the Exposition, and
the cost in railroad and Pullman
fares. are the most important factors.
Considering these matters, New
Orleans claims to being the "Logi-
cal Point" for this Panama Exposi-
tion, seem to be fully substantiated
BY the following facts:-
New Orleans is 500 miles from the
center of population in the United
States. San Francisco is $500 miles
distant therefrom.
Within radius. Of 500 miles from
New Orleans there are 17,500.000
people. Within the same radius from
San Francisco there are only 2,000,00
Within a radius Of 1000 miles from
New Orleans, there are 65,000.000.
Within the same radius from San
Francisco there are only 100000.
At an average of 300 miles from
New Orleans, there are 70 of our
population of 20,000,000. Averaging
800 miles from San Francisco there
are only 8 large cities, with q COM
bined population Of Just 100000.
The average distance Of all these
cities to New Orleans il 1872 miles,
to San Francisco 2,407 miles.
Over rs per cent. of the people OF
the United States could go to an
Exposition there at an average ex-
pense for railroad fare Of $3.50, aa
against an average Of $3.50 to the
Pacific Coast: and for several mil
lions Of our people. the Pullman
fare and Dining Car expenses alone,
for trip to San Francisco, would
amount to more than all their trans
portatfon expenses for q trip to New
Orleans.
This is an important public ques-
tion to be settled by Congress at the
session which convenes in December.
Many of our readers will wish to
visit this Worlds Panama E1posi-
tfon, and II held in New Orleans .
great many more could spare tho
time and money for the trip than
could go to San Francisco. There
