In his native town Jimmy had al.
a been most popular with young
and old. but when he was lent away
to boarding school, he was for a time
too homesick to make friends. His
first letter was little more than a
wall.
I'm way behind the other boys in
everything" he wrote, dolefully.
""Tfsn't only studies. but it's gymna-
STUN and banjos and everything. 1
don't believe they'll ever have much
use for me-"
But the second letter, written after
a week In the new school, was quite
different in lone.
I'm all right" he write to his
mother. The boys say they'll teach
me all they know. for they're proud
to have me here. can stretch my

Analysis of Grape-Nuts shows: Potassium

DR.. Geo. W. Carey. an authority on the
constituent elements of the body, says: The
gray matter of the brain is controlled entirely
by the inorganic ~cellsalt, Potassium Phos-
plate phosphate of Potash. This salt unites
with albumen and by the addition Of oxygen
creates nerve fluid or the gray matter OF the
brain. OF course, there is a trace of other
salts and other organic matter in nerve fluid.
but Potassium Phosphate is the chief factor
and has the power within itself to attract, by
its own law of affinity, all things needed to
manufacture the elixir of life"
Further on he says: The beginning and end
of the matter is 10 supply the lacking principle,
and in molecular form, exactly as nature fur
nishes it in vegetables. fruits and grain. To
supply deticiencies-this is the only law of
cure"
The natural conclusion is that II Phosphate
OF Potash is the needed mineral element in
brain and you use food which does not contain
it. you have brain flag because its daily loss is
not supplied.
On the contrary. If you eat food known to
be rich in this element. you place before the
life forces that which nature demands for
brainrbuilding.

DAIRY NOTES..

The first month of a dairy calf's life
is full of trouble.
Do not be in a hurry to turn the
cows out on spring pasture.
The Hereford makes beef, the Jersey
butter, and the Holstein milk.
Calf scours are the greatest menace
the dairymen have to contend with.
The calf should be kept clean and
dry, or serious trouble may be the re
suit.
Alfalfa or clover hay should be
given the calf as soo as 1t will eat
hay.
Most cream Immediately after sep
aration is in condition to make good
butter.
No centralized creamery can profit
ably compete with a good cooperative
creamery.
Skim milk should be fed at regular
hours until the calf is six or eight
months old.
In churning, the first thing to see
IN is hat the cream is at tina right
temperature.
We know that cows usually give the
largest amount of milk when they are
in good pasture.
Dairymen must exercise care In
changing from dry winter feeding tc
succulent grasses.
The nearest to a dual-purpose breed
is the high grade Short-horn crossed
with a Hereford bull.
There is no doubt but high tenn
perature will often affect the milk OF
cream, and the cans ought TO be pro
tected.
There are many good dairy cows
among those in the S~hort-horn breed
but il is to be remembered that there
are poor cows in all breeds.
No man can cheaper the eost o.
producing milk to the lowest possible
notch unless he understands what his
individual cows are producing ever!

Oysters grow only dtring the sum
mer and especially during the long,
warm summers at that, and are scarce
ly big enough for the mouth before
the third year. 1t is easy after look
ing over a bunch OF shells to tell how
old an oyster is. A summer hump and
the winter sink come atross the shell
every year, but after the seventh or
tenth year full growth comes; then. by
looking at the sinks between the
humps it is hard to tell anything
more about Miss Oyster'$ age. Oysters

Can't Get Away From 1t

Is 1t possible to nourish, strengthen and Re-
build the Brain by Food?
Every man who thinks uses up part of the
brain each day. Why don't it all disappear
and leave an empty skull in say a month of
brain work? Because the man rebuilds each
day.
If he builds a little less than he destroys,
brain flag and nervous prostration result sure.
If he builds back a little more each day, the
brain grows stronger and more capable. That
also is sure. Where does man get the material
to rebuild his brain? Is it from air. sky or the
ice of the Arctic sea? When you come to
think atout it, the rebuilding material must
be in the food and drink.
That also is sure.
Are tina train rebuilding materials found in
all food? III a good variety but not in suitable
proportioh IN all.

PRINCIPLE OF SOIL MULCr,
Loose Dry Material Covering Wei
Land Retains Movement Of
Moisture to the Surface.

'6y PROFESSOR FREER, Colorado Az.
ricultural Coilege.)
A mulch Is anything applied to the
surface Of the soil, primarily for the
purpose Of preventing evaporation
and occasionally to keep down weeds
and prevent winter killing OF plants.
There are two general kinds OF
muiches: % Foreign material, such
as straw, leaves, sawdust, manure
stubble and sand applied to the sur.
face; (2) Those composed of natural
soil modified by tillage. One of this
l Is called dust mulch" or dust
blanket" and Is simply a layer of soil
which has been loosened up and dried
out.
Mulches Of foreign material play a
very small part in general farming.
but are extensively used In h~orticul-
ture in some localities.
The principle of the mulch Is as fol
Loose, dry material covering
wet soil retards the movement OF
water 10 the surface, and keeps the
dry, circulating air from contact with
the moist soil, thereby greatly reduc,
ing the loss of water.
The finer the MUNICH the looser il
must be to give good results. Ordi-
nary soil mulches two to three inches
deep are usually most effective. When
a mulch becomes wet its effective
ness is gone until 1t dries out again.
Light rains and irrigations on a
mulched soil are worse than no appli.
walton of water, because they only
wet n destroy the mulch and al
low the water from below to escape,
without adding any to replace 1t. AID.
ditional expense is incurred by the
cultivation which must be immediate
ly started to restore the mulch.
A quantity Of water retained by cul
tivation Is of far greater value even
where water is plentiful than the
same amount applied to the soil. One
of the great principles Of dry farming
is to keep a good mulch on the soil
all the time to prevent loss of water by
evaporation.
