DAIRY NOTES.

A promising side issue to gen
eral farming is raising veal calves.
We know a man out in the Brigh-
ton district who crowded five
calves from birth until three
months old and sold them for an
average of SIG a head at FIVE
cents pound. They were fed
milk. alfalfa meal, and all the
oats they would eat. Contrast
this practice with this plan of
raising calves on milk and pasture
until they are a year old and then
selling them for $40 or s12.
If the average Colorado COW Civ
ing about $500 pounds of milk a
year. just pays her way what a pro-
fit there would be in a herd of
alfalfa cows averaging 5000 pounds
a year? Such a possibility is not
beyond the reach of the ordinary
dairyman. A herd averaging even
10000 pounds of milk a year is
within the possibilities of our dairy
men for certain cows have produc-
ed as high as % 200 pounds in one
year and We also have records in
which a COW has given her weight
in butter in that time. An almost
unlimited field awaits the dairyman
who will make a study of each in
dividual COW, keep only the profit
able ones and build up a herd on
this foundation, but what is the use
of talking about such things when
people will not do it?
An Arapahoe county man who
has six pretty good chuncks of
boys on the ranch has gone into
partnership with them on a COW
deal. They are to buy hand
separator by paying So month
for il on the installment plan. Then
they are to do the milking and have
all the cream that can be produced
on the place while dad, who is TO
have the steer calves. will have all
the skim milk turned back to him.
He believes he rather has the edge
on the kids for in three years he can
turn of the steers weighing about
1850 pounds and this will be profit
enough for his end of the invest
ment. The heifer calves of course
remain as joint property and We
suppose the old man will turn in
all the land the boys want for grow
ing forage but they will have to do
the work and this will probably kill
them off before the corn is ready to
cut.
Young calves need whole milk
for the first few days. The calf
should always have the first colo
strum of the COW and be allowed
to nurse until the eighth or ninth
milking. when the milk is suitable
for human food. Feed often with
small amounts to avoid overfeed;ng.
Teach the calf to drink and feed
whole milk for at least three weeks
changing gradually to skim diet by
adding oilmeal. ground grain or
alfalfa meal and some folks even
fuss around with alfalfa tea as
substitute. Skim milk is a cheap
feed for calves. but should be fed
carefully in limited quantities and
only while 1t is warm and sweet.
1t may form the principal diet of
the calf for eight months or year.
Factory skim milk should ALWAYS
be pasteurized. The best skim milk
is that fresh from the separator and
still warm. Experiments show that
1t is only one-fourth as expensive to
raise calf on skim milk as whole
milk. Two pounds of ground grain
with the proper amount of skim milk
equals one pound of butter fat.

Way to Oil a Clock.

When clock does not run continu-
ously, or stops frequently, the cause is
often due to lack Of oil. This may be
remedied by saturating a piece of abb
sorbent cotton with kerosene oil and
placing it inside the clock, below the
pendulum. When the cotton is re-
moved month or so later it is found
to be very dirty. This shows that the
FUMES of the kerosene oil have not
only oiled the clock, but have also
cleaned it.-Pictorial Review.

PROF. S. O. SPENCER

On Monday the 18th of Deem

from Mr.. E. P. Green at Braden-
town, Fla, informing me that S. o.
Spencer died at IL o'clock Sunday,

Arthur,i lives, When he arrived
there his son at once called a physi-
clan. Under his skillful treatment
Mr.. Spencer was soon able to con-
tinue his journey to his former
home, Penrose avenue, East Cleve-
land, Ohio. When l arrived in
Cleveland, last May, my wife and |
called on Mr.. Spencer and my sister
Carrie. We found Prof. Spencer
sick in bed. He improved some
under DR.. Rhodes wise treatment.
he got some better but was not
able to go out doors for some time.
When | left Cleveland, September
18th, 1911, he was gaining strength
slowly. DR.. Rhodes advised him to
go to Florida as seon as he was able
to take the journey, Mr.. Spencer
went to Florida some four or five
weeks ago. He had a bad cough.
kidney and liver troubles and all the
ailments of old age. He was about
IA years of age. For many years
he used to go every Sunday to New
Hope church, this county, and furn-
ish music and bible instruction in
the Sunday-school. The people in
that part of the town will always
hold him in grateful remembrance.

Tones of Insects

An investigator, given to the collec-
ton OF curious data, has observed that
there are at least three different tones
emitted by insects; a low one during
flight, higher one when the wings
are held in such manner that they do
not virbrate, and a yet higher tone
when the insect Is held so that none
OF its limbs can be moved. This last,
IL Is pointed out, is the voice prop.

TO PREVENT SAGGrNG SKIRTS
Have Garment Properly Prepared Be
fore Il Is Turned Up to
Be Hemmed.

ILA"
Summer dress skirts when made OF
thin material will always sag after
they are hemmed and finished If care
is not taken to prevent it. A good way
to do is to have the skirt sagged first
before 1t is turned up to be hemmed.
This is done after the skirt is COM
pletely finished excepting the hem,
from the band to the final fitting and
the last hook and eye is in its place.
The skirt is now hung in a closet or,
better still, put upon a full-length
dress form raised from the floor by
placing it on a box, and the bias por-
lions of the cores weighted SO they
will stretch to the fullest extent.
After several days Of this strain the
material will have sagged to its full
est extent, and the hem may be meas
ured and turned up. Anything will
do for Weighing. The smallest weights
from the kitchen scales, put in tenn
porary coverings of muslin and pin
ned on, are excellent. Any other small
objects of uniform heaviness will do
for other weights.

of her socks and hides the darns in
the heels" said a male critic Of one
Of these gowns, and his cruel remark
accurately describes the style.
Why such an untidy fashion should
have come from Paris at a season
when all the crudeness of spring has
usually been eliminated from Its gar.
ments Is a puzzle, but here It Is, new
%ertheless, and many frocks that would
otherwise have been graceful have

EnaIneerlna In Hospitals.

Practically all the important IN
irmaries and hospitals in England
have their own electric generating
stations, and the size Of the instaila'
lions would surprise the majority oil
engineers. The equipment has to BE-
designed with unusual care, owing ia
the special conditions which prevail
in hospital work. Even where a pub
lic supply is available, the use OF an
independent system is justified on &C
count Of the security which 1t givei
against failure OF current at a critical
moment. The installations are used
for lighting, heating, ventilating' tele
phoning and other purposes. and
many hospitals have laundrtes oD
Grated electrically. One county asylum
has its own private electric railway
for conveying supplies from the near
est railway station.

One of the cone-shaped hats, OF
which we may expect to see numbers
during the fall season, Is shown in
the illustration. 1t is trimmed with
a full ruche Of silk "pinked" at the
edges and laid in quadruple box-plait-
ings. Velvet fruit, like plums, cher
rles or even apricots, set in these
ruchings make a trimming chic and
striking. Velvet fruit, in fact, is de-
v%eloping SO much popularity that it
will probably stay with us and ado q
charming note to winter millinery,
and hats made of felt in the shape
pictured here are quite like to be
trimmed in the same way.
A model Of black hemp, with a mod
erately tall crown, is also shown. II
is calculated to pave the way for ex-
tremely high-crowned models, or
crowns trimmed extremely high,
which Paris says, r to be a vogue
for winter. This ~soft-crowned model
makes use of the feather band about
the brim edge and is finished with q
cluster Of outstanding plumes at the
back. An ornament made Of plated
ribbon finishes the trim, poised on the
crown at the right side.

CHAPTER II.

A young woman hurried out of one
Of the apartments to greet Howard.
She was a ~vivacious brunette of me
dunn height, intelligent looking, with
good features and fine teeth. It was
not q doll face, but the face of a
woman who had experienced early the
hard knocks Of the world, yet in
whom adversely had not succeeded in
wholly subduing a naturally buoyant,
amiable disposition. There was de-
termination in the lines above her
mouth. It was a face full Of character,
the face of a woman who by sheer
dint Of logged perseverance might &C.
complish any task she cared to set
herself. A smile Of welcome cleaned
in her eyes as she inquired eagerly:
well, dear, anything doing?"
Howard shook his head for all re-
Spouse and a look Of disappointment
crossed the young wife's face.
Say, that's tough, amt it," she
exclaimed. "The ~janitor was here
again for the rent. He says they'll
serve US with a dispossess. told him
to chase himself, l was that mad"
Annie's vocabulary was emphatic
rather than choice. Entirely without
education, she made nc pretense al
being what she was not and therein
perhaps lay her chief charm, AS
Howard stopped to kiss her, she sale
r%eproachfully:
You've been drinking again, How
ard. You promised MT you wouldn't
? The young man made no reply
With an impatient gesture he passet
on into the fat and flung himsel
down in a chair in the dining room
From the adjoining kitchen came
welcome odor Of cooking.
Dinner ready?" he demanded. "FI
devilish hungry"

nue.. Underwood was coming out Of
a curio shop. He explained hurriedly
that he had left Yale, and when asked
about his future plans talked vaguely
of going In for art. His matter was
frigid and nervous-the attitude Of
the man who fears he may be ap-
preached for a small loan. He was
evidently well aware Of the change in
his old associates fortunes, and hay
ing squeezed all he could out of him,
had no further use for him. It was
only when he had disappeared that
Howard suddenly remembered q loan
of $3.50 which Underwood had never
repaid. Some time later Howard
learned that he occupied apartments
at the exclusive and expensive AS
truria, where he was living in great
style. He went there determined >tc
see him and demand his money, but
the card always came back mot al
home"
Underwood had always been a mys
terry to Howard. He knew him to b
an inveterate gambler and q man en-
tirely without principle. No one knew
who his family were or where h
came from. His source of income
too, was always a puzzle. At colleg'
he was always hard up, borrowing
right and left and forgetting to pay
yet he always succeeded in living o.
the fat Of the land. His apartment
