(By Ruth Cameron.)

To criticise member of ones fam
lily to an outsider is to hurl a boom
erang,
That is, the blow which is intended
for another is practically certain to
come back upon oneself.
But how many people apparently
fail to realize this
l am thinking of a girl especially
otherwise a very likable young per-
son-who goes about frankly saying
that she dislikes her younger sister
and considers her the most disagree
able and bad-tempered person she has
ever known.
/ know she thinks that people will
respect her for this frankness and
sympathize with her for her misfor-
tune in having such sister.
AS a matter of fact, the result is
almost always feeling of repugnance
towards her for having violated the
code of family loyalty and an instinct
i've mental championship of the sister
who is thus attacked.
One naturally wonders what the sis
ter would have to say for herself If
she chose to air the family disagree
ments instead of maintaining, as she
does, most discreet silence on the
subject.
One recalls that Lucy when arous-
ed is not particularly sweet tempered
herself and very much suspects that
the "scrapping" is not all one-sided
The two girls may be equally q
blame for the uncongeniality, or the
younger sister may be really the I'M
endurable person she is made out to
be, but it is she who gets most of the

, sympathy because she knows enough
to hold her tongue on the subject Of
family failings to outsiders.
And that result is inevitable.
Family loyalty is a tradition which
! the world respects and insists shall
be respected.
He who violates it, no matter how
good his reason. is running his head
against the blank wall of tradition and
is mighty likely to get bruised il
no more than that
To have in your own family
tives To have in your own family
persons whom you would have chosen
as intimate friends, even if there had
been no tie of blood between you, is
the best of good fortune. Family 10y
atty is easy then.
To have in your own family persons
whom you would never have spoken to
twice if they had not been your rela-
yves, persons even WHose every HS~
irritates you and rubs you the wrong
way, is one of the greatest misfor-
tunes that can befall one Family
loyalty then becomes difficult, but by
no means impossible.
| You need not associate with these
uncongenial relatives any more than
absolutely necessary, but you can
( keep your tongue chained in regard
! to their faults.
And If you do not want to throw a
boomerang of criticism which will
| probably hurt you more than them,
you will surely do so.

New York, June 1.-THE cotton
mtrket opened steady at an advance
of 1 to points, in response to higher
cables and the failure of the weather
map to indicate any present or imme-
diate prospective relief from drougthy
conditions in the western belt. Profit
taking was very heavy on the initial
advance, local traders seeming to feel
that bullish private crop reports were
being used to make a realizing mar
ket for the bull leaders, and following
the western belt forecast for increas-
ing cloudiness in Texts and Oklahoma
prices sold oqff quite sharply. After
showing a net loss of from to IL

The Art of Writipq,

Writing began with the rude picture
writing on bone and rock and passed
slowly by natural and inevitable
transition from the literal representa-
tons of the objects to the symbolic
suggestion of idea. to a word alphabet
and then to pure sound signs. The
whole process is manifest from the
very infancy Of Egyptian picture writ
ing, as crude as that with which the
savage peoples still record their deeds.
From these crude signs the process
went on in its slow transformation to
the phonetic writing typi6ed in the
Rosetta stone to the Phoeniclan,
Greek and Roman notifications which
brought us to the arbitrary sound SYM
bols which the voice combines into

of the dairy herd. 1t is very neces-
sary to know these cows which are
returning a profit on the feed consum-
ed and the labor employed. 1t may be
that every COW in the herd is doing
this, but the chances are that not more
than half of the cows on the average
farm are paying for their feed and la
Dor if these be charged against the
dairy products of the COW. 1t is de-
Sirable to know which of the cows are
returning the largest profit for the pur-
pose of wedding ont and disposing of
those cows which are yielding the
smallest profit, which may be very lit
tie in excess of the cost of feeding
and which cows do not add to the val
ue of the dairy. There is only one
known means of determining the rela-
tive merit of the respective cows. and
that is by weighing the milk and test
ing.
There is, however, very simple
standard of determining the relative
merits, and that is by eXacting from
the COW certain flow of milk per
year, and to arrive at a standard on
this basis 1t Is necessary only to weigh
and record the milk from each COW
at each milking. The farmer as
beginner can set his standard at 5000
pounds of milk per twelve months,
and any COW which does not produce
this amount Is not profitable for dairy
purposes. Her place in the herd can
be filed by a COW which will meet
the required standard at moderate

DAIRY HERD IMPROVEMENT.
Economy of Pure Bred sires and Care
full Milk TESTING.

TUT MIX eStln9.
That there is profit in milking such
cows as are found on the average
farm at this time is attested by the
larger number of farmers engaged in
dairying. This profit, however, Is not
nearly so large, nor does it even APP
proximate the profit that would be OBJ
tanned by the breeding up and improve
ment of the dairy herd, says the Kansas
Farmer. This can be done most eco
nomically by the use of pure bred
dairy sire. With a reasonable degree
of certainty heifers resulting FROM the
first cross will produce two times as
much butter fat per year with first calf
as did their mothers, and, while the
improvement is not so marked in the
successive crosses, nevertheless each
cross should result in an improvement.
Dairy herds the foundation Of which
have been very common cows have
been so graded up in this state in a
period of ten years as to produce 300
pounds of butter fat per COW, which Is
more than three times the amount Of
butter fat produced by the average
COW in this state under the present
methods.
The use OF pure bred dairy sire
from a heavy producing COW marks
only the beginning in the building up
