THE FARMERS TASKS.

Machinery Has Made Them Lighter
Than They Were For His Father.
The modern farmer wears a white
collar and suspenders and store
clothes. But the most remarkable de-
velopment in agricultural evolution is
his marvellous ingenuity displayed in
the application of mechanical power
to those tasks that were formerly
performed by hand. Farm handicraft
now consists of the ability, coupled
with the inclination, which Is seldom
absent, to apply direct pressure to a
button and allow the machine to do
the rest A visit to a well appointed
western farm will convince the most
skeptical that the vogue of Drawn has
passed, except in the field of mere
football or perhaps wrestling contests.
On a recent visit to such farm the
caller was informed that the proprietor
was in the barn cutting seed potatoes.
He found that the seed potatoes were
being cut all right, but the farmer
was not STOPPING in the old time posi-
ton, Indicative of great bodily pain in
the middle region, while decorating the
juicy spud with jackknife.
A machine of formidable appearance
was planted under a hopper full Of po-
tatoes. There was a great gnashing
of teeth. and the sliced potatoes fell
from the jaws in a continuous stream.
The farmer dipped a handful of the
cut potatoes from the bag and counted
the damaged eyes to determine the
percentage of loss and thus arrive at
an estimate of the quantity of seed
required TO plant given area. He
said the computing machine was at the
Office and he hadn't time to go after
it. But he seemed to have more time
than anything in sight.
That part of the barn devoted to the
live stock was occupied by several
sleek cows, but the caller looked in
vain for his boyhood enemy, long since
forgiven-the familiar milking stool.
The farmer called his attention to a
machine that had just appeared as II
by magic at an aperture In the wall.
A carrier mounted on a cable stretch
ed from the barn to the house had
conveyed the machine to the cattle
stalls. 1t had been to the sterilizins
room to be scalded.
The farmer set the machine at the
back Of the first stall, attached the
rubber hose to the profit producing

plunger on top of the machine, and the

THE GORDON BLEU.
At First an Order For Women Cooks
Established by Louis XIV.

Established by Louis XIV.
When you hear a man spoken of as
a Gordon bleu" you know he is
great cook, but few people have any
idea of how and when the expression
originated. The Gordon bleu was at
first an order for women cooks. 1t
was established by a king-which
makes 1t a real, proper order. Louis
XIV. once asserted to Nine. du Barry
that only men could cook really well
The famous beauty challenged the as
scrtion. but the king insisted that he
was right-that women might be all
right for boiling potatoes and per-
forming the simpler operations Of
20 king, but that when 1t came to a

soon after this argument the royal

several plats. Accordingly she claimed
the foundation of an order of merit for
her female cooks. The claim was at
once granted, and the Gordon bleu
was first conferred upon the women of
Nine. du Barry's kitchen.
Gourmets of today would be inclined
to say that. however great the cooks
of Nine. du Barry may have been in
their day, the dictum OF Louis XIV,
would be true today. There are now
